                   "   Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless."

                                                                       - Mother Teresa

I believe this quote is trying to say that it’s easy to say kind words, but the actions of doing them is what is really heard by the people.  It's easy to say kind words, but the meaning and emotions you say them with count a lot. The kind words are easy to say but the way that you affect the person with the words are endless. For example so many girls have issues with the way you look so when you tell them they're beautiful, its 2 or 3 simple words, but they'll make someone feel better about them.

                                             "  The best way to predict your future is to create it."

                                                                         -Charles Ketterer

    I think this quote means that once you have in your mind all your goals you will accomplish them. You will pass all the obstacles that are put in your path if you have in your mind were you want to go with your future. For example if you have the mentality that you want to get good grades you'll do what's right and do what it takes to get your good grades like doing all your homework, behaving in class, respecting everyone, etc. Once you have in your mind everything you want to accomplish you won't let anything get in your way of accomplishing your goals. Create your future and always set your mind to what you want to be in life.

                         “Actions is the foundation key to all success.”

                                                     Pablo Picasso

Reflections: what I think this quote by Pablo Picasso means is that if you want to succeed in life you have to try to do. You have to get up and work hard in order to be successful. For example you could say that you will do many things but what really counts is if you get up and do all those great things that you said you’d do. Actions speak louder than words so if you want to get something done you have to do the action. By doing the action you will get success in life.

                          "vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare."

 I think quote shows that you shouldn't give up that you should use any difficulties to make you even want what you want to accomplish even more. For example if you get your report card and you get really bad final grades you shouldn't just say you're done with school you should continue going and try better the next time and look at the options you have to make them up.

Glenn Cunningham was an American distance runner. He was born on August 4, 1909 and passed away on March 10, 1988. When he was only eight years of age there was an explosion at his school and caused his thirteen year old brother, Floyd, to die in the fire. Doctors were going to amputate his legs since he had lost all the flesh on his knees and shins and all the toes on his left foot. Since Glenn was so distressed his parents didn't allow doctors to amputate his legs but doctors predicted he'd never walk again. Faith and a new therapy allowed him to slowly begin to walk again. He competed in both the 1932 Summer Olympics and 1936 Summer Olympics.

                “Adversity causes some men to break—others to break records.”

                                                       William A. Ward

Reflection: This means that when you have a hard time it doesn’t mean to give up, it mean to keep trying until you break the record. Sometimes it can be hard and frustrating but you should never give up no matter what happens you should never stop trying and let something hold you down. Whatever holds you down you should make it improve you.
