POST #19

Hello Scholars,

I hope this finds you all in good sprits and health. This week we are going to work on building "Our Perfect House."  We will be working with Google Slides and realtor.com. ALL of the houses we will be using will come from realtor.com.

As we focus on the work, I want you to continue to think about the person you are evolving into, the life you want to create for yourself in the future, and the type of leader you are becoming.  Continue to focus on creating a life you will be proud of now and in the future.

Please continue to make up missing assignments. We are getting close, but the game isn't over yet.  
Keep pushing forward!

Have a blessed week,

- Mr. Nunley

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO SPELLING, CAPITALIZATION AND GRAMMAR.

17 comments:

  1. 1)Watched video and took notes.

    2)The video and quote are similar because they both are talking about fighting back the pain you go through. They are also similar because they're talking about how it's so easy to give up. They differ because one is talking about tapping out and the other is talking about changing the problems you go through to no big deal.

    3)The quote is trying to say that if you change the way you go through pain by fighting back it will be easier to deal with. The video is trying to say that if you fight your way through pain you will finally have success after fighting back the pain. The video is also trying to say that if you give up you will find no victory.

    4)I consider myself as a success achiever because I fight the pain. Also because I get back up and try again if I fail.

    5)A leader is someone who doesn't accept to get something back in return. Also a leader is someone who doesn't give up.

    6)In my opinion, the most important quality of a leader is someone who fail get back up and try again. Also the most important quality of a leader is someone who follow their first minds. The most important quality of a leader is someone who isn't a follower. The last most important quality of a leader is someone who speaks up. That's what a leader is like.

  2. 2. The quote and the video are similar because both of their outcomes are about change and that thinking and fighting for the future is important. They are different because the quote talks about how change is the law of life, however in the video it explains that fighting and not giving up is hard. The video also talks about how to fight your way out of problems and beat them.
    3. The quote means that repenting and thinking about the past and present will get you nowhere in the future. Changing yourself is important because you have to focus on your future rather than your past. The video means that overcoming problems and fighting back when you will get you to success and make you stronger.
    4. I consider myself a failure avoider because I always try to do things the easy way. For example When I have something hard to do I will try to avoid it or find anything easier to help me so I will not fail. When I am given a task I always think about not failing rather than trying my best to succeed.
    5. The words that first come to my mind when I hear the words “leader” and “leadership” are respect, responsible, honorable, great, integrity, intelligent, compassionate, and confidence. Out of all of those words I thought of, I think that to be an effective leader you need to be responsible, intelligent, and integrity. These three words describe many great leaders that were successful and did their duties.
    6. The most important quality in a leader, in my opinion, is integrity because leaders need to be true, honest, and have strong moral principles. This is important in a leader because without integrity many people become mean bosses that shouldn’t be leaders. There are many people with leader positions without integrity and have found themselves incapable of doing the job the right way. Integrity is also important because with this quality people are more successful and have a greater understanding of life. This quality ensures the structure of a well built group and communication between the leader and team.

  3. 2. The differences between the quote and video are the topics, the quote emphasizes on trying to change perspectives, and how leadership can only be obtained through knowledge . The video focuses on how to reach your goals and obtain victory. There are no similarities.
    3. For the video: "Don't stop believin'-" and you will obtain your goals. For the quote: To change the perspective on how one sees things is to change the way the world works, good leadership is only obtained through teaching. This is my own summary for both the video and quote.
    4. I consider myself a failure avoid-er. I consider myself this because when I'm more mature I can discern what I can do better in the future and be a success achiever.
    5. The first word to come to mind is Marine. I think of this because a Marine is a leader and will do whatever it takes to get a job done. Some qualities of a great leader are that of effectively keeping the cohesiveness of a group together and analyzing a situation to keep the interest of the group safe.
    6. In my opinion, the most important quality of a leader is their ability to stay calm under pressure. I think this because being too excited can affect a group negatively. Staying calm also Isn't just not freaking out either, a great leader has to have the will and the bravado to succeed. “They are in front of us, behind us, and we are flanked on both sides by an enemy that outnumbers us 29:1. They can’t get away from us now!”
    – Lewis B. “Chesty” Puller, USMC. This quote shows that Marine General Puller had the confidence needed to lead his brothers to a retreat from the failed Chosin Reservoir campaign. The retreat had been successful because of the inspiration from General Puller from his calmness. And the retreat was no small feat being overwhelmed 29:1, beating back 7 enemy communist divisions (each numbering more than 16.5K, with a marine division only 12.5K). This quality of calmness is what I believe what makes a great leader.

  4. 1) watched

    2) The video and quote are both the same because they both talk about past present and stuff but one talks about pushing forward the other one talks more about change.

    3) I think the video is saying that you shouldn't stop fighting and that you should keep pushing forward and if you do push forward you will have a good outcome. I think the quote is saying that if you look only into the past and present you will not look forward into the future and have a plan or goal for yourself.

    4) I think i'm a failure avoider because when i do see i'm failing i will try to push at it and not fail for example there was this one time where i forgot i had a project due the next day so I stayed up all night getting my project done and I did end up getting it done and I got a good grade and did not fail.

    5) the word I think of when I hear the word leader is strong. Because in order to be a leader you have to be strong. Not just physically but mentally. Like you can't have a weak leader and he gives up on you guys or the group or whatever you have to have a strong leader to guide you in the right direction.

    6) i think the most important quality is to be able to communicate to everyone and understand everybody and have a choice that most of the people agree to not just your opinion on things. Because if you have an opinion that everybody else disagrees on there's going to be a lot of hate and negativity.

  5. 2)The quote and video are both similar because they both talk about not giving up.Don't give up no matter what happens.They are also similar because they both talk about moving forward.Don't ever look back.You have to forget about the past and keep moving forward.Now they are both different because the quote talks about how life is a law.And the video never even mentions that.

    3)The quote quote talks about how you should never look back.You have to keep on moving forward.And also never give up no matter what.The video talks about how to have to fight to succeed.You never are never going to be able to just walk out.You are going to have to fight to get out.Or you have to fight to get where you want to get to.And also you have to power to do things.You have the power to make decisions to make your life better.

    4)I consider myself as a failure avoider because I like to avoid failure at all cost.I want to succeed in life.I do not want to fail in life.Nobody wants to fail in life.
    5)When leader comes to my mind I think of a man leading a group of people.But a leader doesn't just lead.The leader takes care of the pack by protecting the pack or helping the group if they need help.
    6)The best and important quality of a leader is the leader that leads.And also helps the group at the same time.Also the person that protects the group at all cost.Also the one that stands up for the group.The person that is not afraid to fail.Because he will just get right back up and keep on fighting.And the leader that motivates the group.And a perfect leader never gives up no matter what.

  6. 2) The video and quote are similar by they are talking about that you have to focus on accomplishing things. You have to look into the future because your time might run out. They differ by one is talking about how you change in your life and the other about change in learning.

    3) You can not wait until the last minute to do something. It might affect your future. You have to focus on what is happening right now and fix it. You can not give up. Even when you feel like you can't do it you have to keep on fighting.

    4) I consider myself as a successful achiever. I consider myself that because I always try my best. I always try to better myself in a positive way and try to fix something into making it better.

    5) I think that to be a leader you just need to give it your all. The words that came up to my mind are know what you are doing and capable of it. I think that knowing what you are suppose to do can make you a leader.

    6) I think that the most important quality of a leader is someone that keeps on trying. They never give up. They get back up even in their worst moments. They are always focus on achieving what they want. They show a good example the world to never give up. To always believing that you can keep on getting a step closer even when you are feeling down or something bad is happening. Leaders always find a way to not let any thing stop them from growing and becoming better.

  7. 1 . watched

    2 . they are the same because its talking about how they are both have to be a strong person and it tells your future and the way you act is going to show later on like try your hardest also be a warrior at every time and like there so much the same also because they both try to be a leader and a strong warrior in the lifetime but as in different it is different because its talking about the past and like its the future that everyone wants to have a great and successful future and take away there past . \

    3 . well i will start b saying that everyone needs to be a warrior at all time and try to change there future if they had started out bad they can always fix them self's and become a new and better person so then later on in life they can have nice things and jobs to go to , also like in the quote its saying to take response of your leadership and show a better example of yourself in the future not in the past and dont go back to it .

    4 . well sometimes i think of myself as not trying as hard as i can and like i only do and try hard when ever i want but i had just noticed that i need the scores to get in to a smart college but like i achieve some of my goals like getting good grades and all A's but other than that im not a failure and i try hard in every competition problem but like i never stop learning and act a fool all the time . but like very open to what i want and like im smart but need to use everyday of my life to be a rich man not just that but a good job .

    5 . i think what comes to mind is that i hear leadership is that a person that takes a big roll and helps a lot of people in there crazy life , also like people that help others for bad things they have done and give them Alot of examples and help people that need help for real .

    6 . i think that a leader needs full on leadership and has to know what they are doing because they are leading someone eles to victory and when goals they want to achieve and what they like and want but like a leader is a person that has took the roll of a boss and wants to help the people that dont know anything in what there doing .

  8. 1. On paper.

    2. The video and quote are similar because they both talk about controlling your mind and doing what you think is right. The video says that we should fight, fight, FIGHT and be warriors. This quote is telling us that we have to find our strengths by taking power over our minds, not on outside events.

    3. basically what the video and quote are saying is that we should take control of ourselves and not other stuff. We should always fight for the things we want and for the things we think are right. The video used the words fight and warrior a lot because it wants us to know that we should keep those words in mind.

    4. I believe I consider myself a little bit of both. I believe I am successful because I do things right and I manage to keep my grades hard even though there are a lot of things going on for me right now.

    5. When I think of the words leader, I think about someone who can manage to take control in a moment when things aren't right. I believe leadership is having the ability to help people and take charge in a way that you are being helpful and supportive not bossy.

    6. In my opinion, The most important quality for a leader is being supportive and knowing how to take action in moments when things aren't right. This would be helpful because the leader would be able to help and they will know what to do and everything will be back in control. They will be able to handle the situation because they have experience and knowledge for that.

  9. 2. Both the video and quote have similarities and differences. They are different because the video specifically speaks about not giving up and to fight harder. The quote talks about changing and how it can help for your future. The video and quote are similar because both of them talk about changing yourself as in a result for a better future.


    3. To become a better person you're gonna have to change your old habits. Be willing to fight hard obstacles. Don't rely yourself on things you did in the past. Build and get to know yourself more. To keep trying and not give up or give in. Failure is an easy option but not acceptable. Be a good influence and leader for others to copy. Help people become better as well.


    4. I consider myself both. I have my up and downs sometimes, frequently. I be wanting to give up but my body tells me not to. I tried to avoid failing but is also willing to let it get to the point where I'm almost failing.


    5. You have to be the person who knows what they are doing and is willing to guide others that direction too. be a good influence among others.


    6. The most iMportant quality of being a leader is knowing what you are doing. people listen and follow people who know what needs to be done. They also show encouragement. They encourage others in a positive way or negative way. Leaders have the power to influnece others to either do good or bad.

  10. 2) The video and quote are similar because they both show how you have to move forward. And it also shows that that you have to fight for the future. An example of this is from the video when E.T. States that you are a warrior and you have to activate the warrior inside of you. Another example of this is using learning as a way to move to the future. What I mean by this is having to do exams but you want to give up.




    3) The video states that everyone has a warrior inside of them. It also says that you should always be giving 120% in everything. The video also shows how people who are weak they give up. And the people who are strong keep fighting to the end. The quote states that we should be staying in the past or present. We should be thinking of how to improve our future. And that by school we can go to the future successfully.




    4) I consider myself a failure avoider. The reason behind this is because I don't like to fail at anything. And I always like to give 90% or more.


    5) when I hear of the word leader I think of someone that everyone looks up to. I think if you want to be a great leader you have to take advice from the community. Lastly most leaders always strive to do what's best for the people.


    6) i think the most important quantity of a leader is doing what's right in the situation. An example of this is when the leader chooses to keep people away from the war/battle so they can be safe. And another quality a leader should have is being able to resist pressure from the people. I think this is an excellent quality because most leaders can handle the pressure and the criticism the people give to you. Lastly these are my opinion of what a great leader should look like there are many more examples these are just a few.

  11. 2.) The quote and the video are similar because they both talk about the future and how not to give up.They differ because the video talks only about fighting for what you want.And the quote only talks about how you should not look back and how you should continue.
    3.)Well the video talks about how you should not give up and how you should fight till you get where you want to be.It also tells you how you should not give up and how you should keep going forward.The quote tells you that you shouldn't be looking at the past at what has happened you just need to get up from the past and move forward to succeed.You should change because that's what life is about everything changes even you can make a change.

    4.)Well to be honest i consider myself as both because i can succeed if i try but i can fail if i don't.The most common reason i fail is because i get lazy on my work at school and home.I succeed because when i'm not lazy and hard-working instead i succeed.
    5.)To me a leader is a good boss.And leadership means to be a good leader that tells you what to do to success.For example in every soccer team there needs to be a leader and that leader helps his team win games.For someone to be a effective leader they need to be caring and supportive.If they do not have these qualities then they are not a good leader.
    6.)For me the most important quality that a leader needs to become a leader is support.If a leader doesn't have support for their team then that's a bad leader without leadership.This is the most important quality that a leader should have.If they don't have support for their team,then their team doesn't feel cheered up and they do bad.It is important for someone to have motivation that's why support equals motivation.

  12. 1.The video and the quote are similar because they both talk about working hard.They are both different because the quote talks about time and the video talks about fighting and not giving up.
    2.The quote is saying don't look back at your present.The quote also is saying don't try and think of your future too much.The video is similar because they both talk about future,present,and past.They are different because the video is motivational the quote is just giving you advice.
    3.I don't consider myself being success achiever nor do I consider myself being a failure avoider.I Am not A success achiever because I am not getting the grades I would like to have.I am not a failure avoider one is because I do not try to fail I always try.
    4.When I think of a leader I think that means strong.It also means someone who can handle big problems Someone who won't forget things.I also think of someone who help many people without gettign any help in return.

    2. The quote and the video are similar because they both talk about what you should do for your future like pushing yourself to do something. They are different because the quote tells us how life is and how we change our life by not looking at the past and the present. The video is different because it's telling us to not giving up and we have to fight to each the goals.

    3. The quote and the video mean to me is telling about future. They are telling us to change, to never give up, to fight for our life. All of them is showing to see our future and to make it real.

    4. I consider that myself is a success achiever. I know where my goal is and what I support to do to be success. I also know I can't give up on something and i am working hard as well as i can.

    5. To me, a leader means you do something to make people looks up. And a leadership means to me to be very responsible to others.

    6. In my opinion, the most important quality for a leader is to become responsible and support. A leader needs to be responsible because they have to help others. And a leader also needs to support others to give them the motivation and to improve them or something else. That is very important to be a leader to encourage others same as others encourage the leader. Remember to be a leader you have always support and responsible.

    2. The video and quote are similar but the difference is that the quote says to not look at the past and you are to worry ed about the past you might gonna end up missing out the future. But on the video it was saying to fight until you give or until your done.

    3. The video is saying to fight dont be weak because the weak will end up quitting give it 100% percent of all your effort and to look yourself in the face. But the quote says to not look back at the past because you might have some stuff you regret doing and it might bring you down in the future and to stop worrying about the past and focus on your future because you wanna have a great future.

    4. I consider myself successful because i know where my goals is and i want accomplish them because i wanna be a leader and i will never give up.

    5. When i hear the word leader and leadership i think about a person that makes people do they work takes in vantages of the people they are working with and they never give up.

    6. In my opinion the most important quality of a leader is to not quit and do there work and take care of your people and make them work hard and make them turn in all there work and carry there team when they are doing bad like lerbon james when they where down by 3-1 in the nba finals he never gived up in that seires then they won the whole championship and made history.

    2. It means that that you dont need to be successful to be happy you need happiness to be successful because without happiness your not gonna be successful in your whole life.

    3. The quote and video are similar because the quote says you need happiness to be successful and the video means that you have turn your dreams into a reality and continue doing it until you become successful.

    4. The messages means to me that i need to be happy to be successful in my life and make my dreams a reality and ill become successful in my life i gotta have a dream to complete my goals

    5. This message matters because i can be happy to finish all the stuff i wanna complete and go to college to get a good future and do good things so i can get a big house.

  17. 1. The quote and video are similar because they are both talking about fighting to get what you want, except that the quote says it in a different way. The quote state changing by saying that its the law of life. They differ also by the quote talking about the future and how people that are to stuck on the past and present don't move on.

    2. The video is saying that when you are at your lowest points in life you need to fight your way through the top to succeed. You need to not give up because when you do you choose a wrong path for tat task that is holding you down and preventing you to move on. The quote is saying that the people who focus on the present and the mistakes they made on there past don't move on to the future. They need to forgive themselves and work on what is planned for them in the future.

    3. I wouldn't say that i am a success achiever because i do try to be successful but sometimes i don't achieve it so i guess i consider myself a failure avoider because i do try my best not make mistakes that can effect me in the future. I don't want to say that i am a failure avoider either because i have failed a few times but i try not to fail more then i try to succeed which is not necessarily a good thing but i try to succeed as well.

    4. The words i thought of are role model and top. These words are a good example of a leader because to be a leader you need to be a role model and make sure that your "followers" see you as a role model and like you enough for them to put you on the top and lead them.

    5. The most important quality of being a leader is directing you group to be great people. To be a leader your group must like you, as well, and agree with your plans you have for your group. Like Donald Trump, for example, he is not a good leader because not everyone agrees with his decisions with his laws that he wants to create. Another important quality of a lead is to be respectful. When you disrespect people, You get disrespect back and your group has conflicts that cause chaos.
