Charles Swindoll and Vince Lombadi Quotes

     "We have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day." - Charles Swindoll

     This quote pertains to daily attitude and behavior. If you wake up in tha mornin feelin like P Diddy, your day will probably be a happy one. If you get off the wrong side of the bed and want to punch somebody in the face as soon as you walk out your door, you will not have a good day. If everyone woke up in the morning and decided that today was going to be a good day, imagine how the world would be. A positive attitude is key to a happy life.

     "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." - Vince Lombardi

     If you want anything out of life you must put effort into it. Strength is not an issue for a succesful person. Strength is physical and can be changed if you have the "want to". Knowledge is also not a problem for a person who has had a happy and successful life. Eduacation can be achieved by hard work and determination. Will, on the other hand, is an issue to many people in this world. If you want something, work for it. Momma's not going to keep giving you stuff for the rest of your life.


     These two quotes are related because they're both needed to have a happy and successful life. Swindoll's quote recognizes the need for people to be positive in everyday life. If everybody was positive and saw the bright side of things, this world would be better. Just wake up and say "Today's gonna be great". In Lombardi's quote, it shows that people that always complain about not being strong ENOUGH or not being SMART enough are wrong. All it takes is effort, heart, and just giving 100% everyday at everything.

Ford Quote

"Those who believe they can do something and those who believe they can't are both right." - Henry Ford

This quote, to me, means that you have to be confident in what you about to do. You have to know that you can do it in order to accomplish that task. On the other hand, if you do not think that  you can accomplish the task, you will not be able to do it. You will fail at it. Like a loser, you will lose. If you think you can win, you will win... like a winner.

If i was principal...

     If I were to become the principal of Lorena Middle School, I would do many things. I would change the eighth grade's lunch to about two hours earlier. I would also make the lunch meat MUCH better. I would  buy REAL meat. The stuff they give us now can't be real meat because it sucks. The Farmer family could sell cows to the school and "The Slaughterhouse" could be an elective.
     I would also allow students to use their cell phones. AT APPROPRIATE TIMES. The students could text each other and their parents during FREE TIME. Texting and calling people during class and work time will be striclty prohibited. The students would also be able to use their smartphones to research for projects and whatnot.
     If I were to continue this list with the rest of my opinions, it would go on and on, so I'm gonna leave it at this.
