CLASS EVALUATION


1) Some thing that I liked about this class was that we were given helpful lessons that would help improve how we live.

2) Something that I did not like about this class was that I feel we did not have enough free time.

3) Something that I think will help improve this class would be to create more interaction with creating programs.

4) A highlight that I had made during this class was my scratch program that was difficult to create but I was able to pull it off.

5) I did really do by best in this class because I would always read my life planning journal and I would always try to follow the rules and tips we were taught. 

6) I am reading my life planning journal everyday although I might not record my progress, I am reading. 

7) I am committed to being a CTR person because CTR will help me have a brighter future and I should live by it. 

8) What I will pass down from this class will be to CTR and never CTW.

9) The thing that I will always remember about this class will be that I can always become a better person.

The Ten Tips for being More Truthful 
1.Make a commitment to tell the truth.
Make sure to tell the truth. Always be honest. Be committed to not lie to yourself or others. Honesty is always the best. 
2.Tell someone about your commitment.
Tell others your plans of having to always tell the truth. Showing others that you are committed to doing something might inspire them to do the same.

3. Think before you give a dishonest answer, explanation, sarcasm, or reason. 
Make sure to watch what you say. Don't just say dishonest things to others without thinking of how they might feel with your response. 

4. Be careful of when and how you use exaggeration, sarcasm, or irony. 
Do not use sarcasm, exaggeration, or irony to make fun of people. Do not use them to hurt others but instead to motivate them, to make them better. 
5. Be careful not to twist the truth or leave out part of it. 
Make sure to never go around the truth for that makes it a lie. Make sure to say the whole truth and don't leave anything that out that should be said. You can't call it the truth if you don't if you say all of it. 
6. Don't indulge in little white lies. 
Don't get involved in people lies no matter how small they might be. Don't help someone in their lies tell them to be honest instead of lying. 
7. Watch out for silent lies. 
Some people might not tell you the truth because they are hiding something. They do no want to tell you something so you should be on the lookout for when people are not telling you the truth. 
8. When you catch yourself lying, throw your mouth into reverse. 
When you see yourself about to lie remember to tell yourself that lying is bad and say the truth. 

9. Talk to yourself
Make sure that every once in a while you reassure yourself that you are doing the right thing. Although your decisions might not be popular, or the same thing if you talk to yourself and remember that you are doing the right thing you will be truthful.

10. Treat yourself when you tell the truth.
When you tell the truth you should give yourself a reward. Telling the truth is a difficult task but if you reward yourself you are more likely to tell the truth. Use a motivation to tell the truth more. 

Reflection
The Ten Tips for being More Truthful can benefit me by helping me become more truthful. The tips that I am applying right now are all of them. The ten tips are helping me become more honest. I will incorporate the ten tips into my Life Planning Goals by creating new goals that involve telling the truth.

Glenn Cunningham

Glenn Cunningham-Have Heart
Glenn Cunningham is a man that had went through many horrible things as a child. He had lost his brother and was told that he would never walk again. But none of that stopped Cunningham from moving forward. His dreams were to become a doctor and to run in the Olympics. To many people running in the Olympics is tough enough but to overcome being crippled and still run in the Olympics is an impossible task. But this impossible task didn't stop Cunningham. He did his best all life until he was able to achieve his goals.  What many people do is they stop trying when something gets tough although in reality their problem isn't as hard as they think it is. As long as you place all your heart into something you can achieve it.

Commitment

Commitment
The state or quality of being dedicated to a cause, activity, etc.
We, the People, recognize that we have responsibilities as well as rights; that our destinies are bound together; that a freedom which only asks what's in it for me, a freedom without a commitment to others, a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism, is unworthy of our founding ideals, and those who died in their defense.

My thoughts on this quote are that are finding ideals are based on helping one another and ideals other than helping each other is an ideal that we raised to think of. An example for this quote would be that if you someone struggling you go and help them, not knowing what the situation is and not wanting anything out of it is an ideal we were taught.

Quote

"Decisions Determine Destiny"
-Thomas S. Monson

Image result for "Decisions Determine Destiny"Some attributes that this quote have are Wisdom, determination, responsibility and knowledge. 

What this quotes means is that the decisions you make affect you in the future. The decisions you make today lead you to a path. One example of this quote is if early on you decide to be a doctor and you keep the mind set of being a doctor in the future that will be your destiny. An another example would be if you do drugs early in life i will only lead to a life you wish you would've never chosen. 

How this quote relates to my 100+ life planing is that the goals that I place inside it are decisions that I am making.
