Today is going well because we have a shorten day. I donated blood in school and wasn't that bad. It took about 10 minutes for me to be done donating blood. I felt fine after and didn't feel dizzy, light,  nor like I was going to faint. I wanted to stay there for the rest of school hours but they told me I couldn't stay there forever unless I didn't feel well. I got a shirt for donating blood and snacks. I'm just waiting for school to be over so I can go home and go to sleep. School is boring. I don't want to go to my next class. Hopefully donating blood doesn't negatively affect me tomorrow. Tomorrow I am going on a long hike with the Marines. I was supposed to go with my family to Arizona for the weekend but decided to stay and stay dedicated to the things that I want to achieve in my life. That achievement is to become a United States Marine after high school. Going to college after high school isn't something that I want to do. I want to live and abnormal life and become something bigger than me. That is why the military is the best option for me. I love the way they push you to do things that you though you couldn't do.

Just this week I believe I have done a lot to prepare myself for my future. I have gotten more information about the Marines. I took the PICAT and got a good score so I am going to go to take the ASVAB this Thursday and then going to get my physical next Tuesday. Joining the Marines is something I have looked forward for a long time. Once I graduate high school, my leave to boot camp is estimated to be in August or September. I am joining with a friend and are supposed to be in boot camp together. I have to choose 3 jobs I got offered from many fields and my 3 choices were: 1) Mechanic on diesel trucks 2)  Aircraft Mechanic and 3) Engineer in Construction or Infantry Sniper.

The Power of Resourcefulness

The Power of Resourcefulness  Jennifer Witterick  Reflection: I learned that how she explains that we get resourcefulness from ourselves. There is no place we can go look for it, buy it becuase its inside us. The example she used was helping baby chicks break out of an egg vs letting them go through the rough experience on their own. The results were that the ones who were help ended up being weaker and those who did it on their own, were stronger and lived more long. This shows us that we don't always need other peoples help through rough times. We need to learn how to be patient and have inner strength to overcome challenges on our own. This will make us a stronger person overall because we will get trained to be independent and know how to overcome obsticles. A few recources withing me include: patient, self-motivation, consistant, confident, independent, responsible, determined, overcomming, discipline, enthusiasm, obedience, friendly , coopeeration, diligence, s...

The Psychology of Winning

The 10 Qualities of a Total Winner  Denis Waitley  Quality 1: Positive Self-Expectacy  "Life is a self fulfilling prophecy. True winners go into every event expecting to win." Reflection: To me this overall means to go into any situation with a mindset of winning. By doing so, you put yourself into a self-advantage because you enter with confidence. An example of this can be like having a soccer game. If you go with a mindset of winning as well as your teammates, everyone will perform to their best. This will help to be a winner because having that sense of winning, makes it easier for you to see the end result. On the other hand, having a expectancy of loosing will make you less successful. This is because you put yourself in a negative mindset and thus leading you to not giving your full potential. Quality 2: Positive Self-Motivation  "True winners dig deep and find motivation inside themselves to get through that tough task or to learn a new sk...
