We Learn To Do By Doing

                                               

      Even if we fail the first time or if we don't understand it, the best way to learn how to do something is by doing. like this other quote that says "you won't know unless you try." It doesn't even have to cross our mind to try and educate ourselves, since we were small we learn things by doing them. For example you learned to write your full name in pre-school and you didn't even have to think about doing it we just learned how to write it by doing it over and over again. We might be a little slow at first but by getting our hands a little messy we can create a mosaic without even knowing it. So by getting up each day and having a positive attitude we expand our knowledge by going to school/work and learning new things every second.  You can learn the greatest secrets of life if you just put your mind to it. it's not about doing it it's about wanting to do it. So if you want to be a cook you learn to be one by doing what cooks do.

 " Life is a story written with both gold and black ink"

                                       

          - Melissa Raymundo

   Around the world there are many people that come up with quotes. We can either relate to each of them negatively or positively.  You might think that your life is the worst thing ever, but in reality the moment you are living is the only bad thing. Life is a gift that is given to us and we are meant to do good in order to be happy in life. The moments you live are based on the decisions you make. For example, if you choose to lie you would be encountering many consequences of lying. The feeling of guilt that is produced by your lie causes you to feel bad instead of feeling good. You are the author of your book and you decide whether that chapter is written in gold or in black ink.

 Student success statement

                    “Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy”

The ultimate goal of life is to find happiness, and the one easiest way to find it is by being obedient. Obedience doesn’t just mean to do what you are told to, because if  that was the objective, we would all be going through a wrong path. Being obedient means doing what you are told to do but knowing it is also the right thing to do. You are not obviously going to rob something because you were being obedient, you are going to choose the right and follow god’s will because you know robbing is not right. Even if you don’t believe in god robbing is not right and you know it, so why obey someone that makes you do the bad things. When you do bad you feel guilt and if happiness is what you are looking for, start by obeying the people who choose the right. Start by doing your homework every day not just when you are at risk to fail a class. Start by doing good actions and obeying the law because one day you won’t regret doing what was right. Being happy is the only thing in life that matters. If obeying means being happy be a CTR person and consider making right decisions that will bless your life later on.

           Lausd provides many student services for example, after school programs that allow young people to interact with one another and learn much more than the average school work. Beyond the Bell and All Stars are one of the most known after school programs of lausd. These two programs include help on homework, sports, activities, and free menus for children attending school. In addition lausd provides kids with summer school and internships opportunities. 
         I believe the services lausd provides are stupendous, many public schools are different in every way, but they all have something you should not take for granted. Lausd helps students meet their required graduating goals by introducing online tutoring or easy at home learning. Lausd has been around for years making kids of today be the success of tomorrow. 

" Choosing the right is always the right thing to do."      
                                                                                                                                      - Alex Linares
       Choosing the right thing to do is always the right thing to do because when you do the wrong thing you don't feel good about it. It is better to have a feeling of happiness when you do a good action then to satisfy your needs by doing something you will feel guilty about and later regret. If you choose the right you will find happiness later on in life. The actions you do will benefit you in the ways you did them. For example if you gave money to the poor the day before Christmas, the idea of you knowing they will have food in their stomach would be way more valuable than any present you come upon. The ideal of kindness is something you can do without any issues it just takes time for you to realize you can do a little thing to make someone's life a little better.

" What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player."
                                            - John Wooden

                                                                                  
Your personality is was people value most when they first start meeting you. How you treat others is what counts more than what you give to others. You could be the most successful person in the whole world, but that is not what counts. what counts is the type of person you are and the type of person you are willing to become. Someone could be the greatest basketball player in world but, the worst person you can come across. Having a good character matters when you try to gain people and teach them the right thing to do. It is important to always have a big heart even if the world gives you everything or if it gives you nothing at all. Your love to others is valued more than the label you are given.

             "True wealth is of the heart, not the purse"
                                                                                                                   -Pathros
    There are two meanings of wealth. One meaning the state of being rich, and the other meaning the state of being healthy. Money is what makes the world go round with out it we have no food or clothes or water or a roof to live upon. But to your benefits being wealthy can be something you inherited when you were born. Being rich does not grant you happiness, in theory you can have all the money in the world but there will always be something missing in your life. For example, if you have rich parents who spoil you 24/7 you think that would be all you would ever wish for but in the contrary, your parents won't have time for you. You will have to be facing your problems on your own and you won't have a loving mother to talk to about it. Another example is, being wealthy in money but not being wealthy in health. Health is something worth more than money, if you are not healthy enough you don't have a chance to live and thats when all the "wealth" you though was important will no longer be necessary because you will be dead. That'as why you should choose the right and find wealth in the heart, not the purse. Once a while give charity and spread love around the world. ;)

                " You cannot do wrong and feel right, it's impossible."
                                                                            - Ezra T. Benson




         My thoughts about this quote go right above the clouds. Most of us do wrong once a while. It's impossible to do wrong and feel right because our nature is different. We learn to do the right thing since we are born. We are taught to be humble and give up our seats for the old lady on the bus, to not cheat on a test, to always tell the truth, but we are not perfect. Yes, we lie most of the time it's okay and of course you are going to feel bad about it because obviously you are not unintelligent enough to not know you did something bad. But we learn from our mistakes, that's the only good feeling you get when you do something wrong. You learn to not do it again, if we trip on a rock you are not going to trip against the SAME rock again for the second time. That's logical enough. I believe most quotes about Ezra T. Benson are about doing good things which is something we can all do with out putting a lot of effort. For example, you can help and tutor your friend instead of letting him cheat off you o every math test. Or simply give the lunch you find disgusting to someone who needs the food and actually finds it fulfilling to his stomach. In conclusion there are other aspects in doing wrong and feeling good because not always wrong things are considered bad.

     " When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad I feel bad."

                                                - Abraham Lincoln

                                          

     This quote by Abraham Lincoln says it all, even the line says it all. When we do good for either a person or for ourselves, we feel good about it. We have this feeling of happiness that fulfills our soul and tells us "High five, you did good." Like when we do good in a test because we studied until 3 AM last night or when we gave money to a homeless man in the streets. All those are examples of when we do good and we feel good about it. in contrast when we do bad the opposite happens. We have the sensation of guilt and stress because we know sooner or later the truth will come out. Yup, we have all been through a situation of whether or not we should be condor and tell the truth once and for all, but we know if we tell the truth we are going to get more into trouble if we tell a lie. So that's probably we all take the easy way out a lie. But later on in life we still go back to the situation and we keep thinking about it over and over again. Yes, we feel bad and guilty although it might have not gotten no body hurt it still makes you feel bad. So that is why we should choose the right and do good most of the time. If we know something we are doing is bad, simply take the other route and leave situations that would lead you to trouble alone. Because when you do bad you feel bad. So you should always try to do good things for people and for yourself because what you get in return is something more valuable than money can buy.

                                           Obedience
     "The key to freedom is obedience. The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have."
                                                                                                  - Boyd K. Parker

        The reason why most people end up in jail is because they do the opposite of obedience. A person does not get locked up behind bars because they do the right they are put into jail for doing the wrong thing. If you decide to obey the rules and commit yourself to doing the right thing all throughout your life you would have more freedom. Not just freedom of being out of jail but also the spiritual freedom of feeling good about your actions and good deeds. Freedom is not something you have to work for if you just obey and choose the right, freedom would come to you.
