"Stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what's happening right this moment." 

Phil Jackson

11 World championships- Coach 

2 World Championships- Player 

2 High School Championships- Player 

This quote means that you shouldn't just focus upon you winning or losing. What matters is that you should focus on whats happening at this very moment. So, don't mind the score. What matters is what you do about the score. An example would be a basketball game. Your team is down fifteen points and there are less than four minutes until the game is over. Don't think about that defeat just yet and that loss counting against you. Just worry about what you can do. You can send your best players out there and hope they do enough just to barely win the game. Never give up easily and choose the right!

"Everyone is the architect of their own learning." 

Claudius 

What this quote means is that you are in the drivers seat and you make up your own choices. No one else can learn for you, it all depends on yourself! So, if you do bad you cannot blame others for your actions. If you get good grade you still don't blame others for your own actions. You did that yourself, its either you do good or do bad. An example could be a student. This student never does his homework, classwork, or does not do so well on test... His report card comes and it is terrible grades! So, he blames others. He blames his mother, father, brother, sister and so on... This was all his own fault and he needs to take responsibility for his own actions! Choose the right!!!

"Persistence can exchange failure into extraordinary  achievement." 

Matt Biondi 

What this quote means is that you need to put in a little effort to achieve what you want. An example would be a student who has a fail in your class. You just need a little effort to raise that grade. It will not be easy, but you must try!!!

"Improve your performance by improving your attitude." 

ANON

What this means is that if you want something done in the proper matter, you need to have a positive mind towards it. If you don't, you will have a negative feeling toward that certain thing you want. So, if you want to improve first never think negative. Then think of a solution, like maybe think about it positively. An example would be a student in an algebra class. He may may not like that class because he is doing bad. So, he is thinking negatrive in that class. He first needs to think positive. There are many solutions to this problem. He can ask his teacher for tutoring, ask for exra credit, and maybe re-make all the material he missed or never did

"When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bulls-eye is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim, improve yourself." 

Gilbert Arland 

 

What this quote means is that you quit. Plus, you always can blame others for your own actions. You cannot blame others for doing something bad when you did it. You cannot do that! An example would be a kid stealing a candy bar. He committed his own action. So he cannot blame the clerk, cashier, or store for him stealing, he made his own choice! So, for every action there is a consequence.

"The first law of success... Is concentration; to bend all the energies to one point, and to go directly to that point, looking neither to the right nor the left." 

Williams Matthews 

What this quote means is that you should always do the right thing. You cannot do anything without concentrating. Without concentrating your mind will be all over the place. And without your mind, you cannot accomplish anything. So, concentrate. An example would be a student slacking off in class. The student is not concentrating, so that is why he slacks off. So, remember to concentrate and choose the right!

"Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow." 

Robert Kiyosaki 

What this quote means is that in order for you to start to have a bright future you need to start now! There is no excuse for tomorrow, you need to start now if you want to have a successful future. For example, take me for instance. I am barley a freshman in high school and I have already accomplished some tasks in order for me to go to a good college and better future. I have been elected the first ninth grade president of the this school year. I am trying out for my school's first football team. I also have straight A's! So, as you can see, you don't start tomorrow; you start today and right now! So, choose the right and start your own amazing future and make a bright one!
