Computer-related Inventions

 Some computer-related inventions would be the creation of phones, computers, tablets, Ipods, apps, compasses, electricity, internet, trains, cars, airplanes, boats etc. I think these are the greatest of all time because without them we wouldn't be able to travel anywhere or research something we have a question too. Also because these are really useful and helps people throughout the world and helps the people that want to learn how everything works go into this field in college. 

Class Evaluation

1. What I liked about this class is that Mr. Haymore made it fun and joyful for us to be with him. He taught us how to code and how to put all of the success statements into heart. Those statements I will continue to keep and read them to remind myself who I am and how to better myself when I'm feeling down.

2. I honestly don't have negative things I didn't like about the class. I was always happy to be in the class and just get my work done. 

3. My recommendations for improving the class is to keep playing the music and just make everyone feel welcomed like you did with our class.

4. I read my life planning goals journal for 5 minutes to remind myself of the goals I have set for myself and make sure I accomplish them. I also like to add more goals and accomplish them along with writing in the journal section of my notebook. 

5. I am committed to being a CTR person 24/7 because making the right choices will help me be successful in life. I will remember to go down the right path and not mess up choosing the wrong. I know what I want in life and I can only make that happen when I'm choosing the right.

6. I learned the most about coding and how everything works. I will pass this on to my little cousins that like to play video games at such a young age. When they get older, these websites and my knowledge will help them create a video game of their own.

7. I will always remember Mr. Haymore always greeting Adriana and I as we walked into the classroom. He always put a smile on my face and made me feel at home. I enjoyed being in his class and seeing that I can put a smile on his face as well.

  The Psychology of Winning

Quality 1: Positive Self-Expectancy

"Life is a self-fulfilling prophecy. True winners go into every event expecting to win."

This quality means always having the thought that you can do it in your head. Whenever you are presenting a project or you're at a job interview, always keep in mind that you are going to do good no matter what. Don't start a race without the motivation to finish it. Keeping that in mind will boost your confidence up more and you won't be afraid to accomplish anything. If at first you don't succeed, then try again because the third time's the charm. If you tell yourself that you are going to win and you know you can do it, then nothing will hold you back. You winning will become a habit and you will want nothing but to win at life. Succeed and show everyone that they can do it too. At the end of the day, it helps you get better. Tell yourself you are a winner. Tell yourself that you can do it no matter what. Tell yourself that you're not going to give up. Keeping those thoughts inside your head on repeat every single day, will help you keep that confidence boost you need throughout your life.  

Quality 2: Positive Self-Motivation
"True winners dig deep and find motivation inside of themselves to get through that tough task or to learn a new skill. "

To have motivation you believe in yourself no matter what. You tell yourself you can do it even though a lot of people are telling you you can't. When it comes to completing an assignment or doing an interview for a job, you need to have self- motivation so you know that you can do it. You walk in the place or present something with the confidence you have within yourself. For example, when we had to do the IDPs for 9-11th grade, we were determined to get the motivation to pass it with a good grade. If they seen we didn't look confident in what we were saying, they would tell us it's going to be fine. We just needed to keep the thought that we can do it if we just believe. Don't let people tell you can't accomplish anything when you know deep down inside that you can. Show them that their words are wrong. If you have the motivation they don't have to get something done, you're already ahead. Keep your head high and let positive thoughts stay inside your head. Block out the negative people that try to bring you down. 

Quality 3: Positive Self-Image
"True winners are confident and view themselves as competent, valuable human beings"

Positive self image is loving yourself the way you are. You shouldn't judge yourself by what everyone else is telling you. If people are telling you many negative things but you know it's not true, then why believe what they are telling you. If you know that you are smart, beautiful, successful etc, then you are. Don't let their words affect you because then you are going to believe what they are telling you is true. What's more important is the way you see yourself not the way other people see you. Don't let them put a name on you. You know the name you belong to and you know what you are in life. I've grown to realize that I don't need people's negative sayings. If I know I am something then I believe in myself.  I won't let their words bring me down and make me feel insecure of my body because they aren't happy with themselves. I will use that as motivation to bring my self-esteem more up and build the extra confidence in my life. I know I am worthy of what I do and nothing will bring me down. If I do go down, I will simply rise back up because I know I am a valuable human being. I also like to tell people how valuable they are because I feel like they need to hear it. I make sure they are happy with what they see in front of the mirror because it's what makes them, them. They don't need to change for anyone in their life. If that person doesn't like them for who they are, then they aren't mean to be with them. Positive self image is what helps people be confident about how they look and feel on the inside as well as on the outside. 

Quality 4: Positive Self-Direction
"You gotta have direction if you are going anywhere. True winners know where they are going. Their sense of direction comes from the self and not from outside influences like parents or friends."

Self direction is the key to mastery. You need directions to wherever you are going in life. You can't be like a boat without its rudder because then you have no destination. You are going where the wind takes you whether it's good or bad. You need to have a path or an idea of where you will be walking down. You can either be going down the right path or the wrong path. The only one that is able to choose id you. You know where you want to go and only your feet can take you there. If you follow your dreams and keep your head high, then you will be able to get anywhere in life. You first have to start off by believing in yourself every step of the way. Once you build that confidence you need, you can accomplish anything you want. Don't worry if you start on the wrong path. Throughout the time you can always fix yourself to get on the right path. It's never too late to want to change what you are doing just to better yourself. Choose  the new life you want and forget about the old life you had. Many great things will come your way if you stay focused and know the path you are going down. You follow what your heart and mind tells you, not what other people have to tell you. That's another thing; don't let other people tell you the path you must go down. If you know that's not what you want to do or study then tell them. Follow YOUR dreams and no one else's. In the end what matters most is that your happy doing what you wanted to do not what your family or friends wanted you to do.  

Quality 5: Positive self-control
Total Winners can sacrifice immediate pleasure for a gain in the future. Delayed gratification is of immense value in reaching your goals. 

Self control is being able to say no in any tough situation. You do what is right no matter how in trouble you might get. Then again if you weren't doing anything bad, you wouldn't need to get in trouble. Well, anyways everyone needs self control. This is something that keeps you calm in tempting situations. 






Quality 6: Positive Self-Discipline 
"You have to discipline yourself or someone else will discipline you into doing what they want you to do. Total winners have the power to discipline and take control of their lives."

Self discipline is the ability to pursue what one thinks is right despite temptations to abandon it. Don't let anyone pressure you into doing something you don't want to do. If you tell them no and they don't respect that answer then you shouldn't be there with them. Follow your dreams and everything that makes you happy. Keep in mind that you control your life and you make the decisions to what you want to do. Your family isn't going to be there to make the decisions for you. They're not going to tell you what's right from wrong because that's something that you need to know already. Take control of your own life. You make decisions for yourself. You go out and do what makes you happy. In the end what matters most is that your doing what ultimately makes you happy. Yeah your family is going to be there for you and help you along the way, but they can't always make the choices for you. Once you become a grown up, it's your responsibility to care for yourself no matter what happens. If you follow what other people tell you, you won't get anywhere in life. You're going to be busy making them happy but what about your happiness? Make a change if you don't like what someone is doing or telling you. Only you have the power to to take control of your life so don't let someone else have that power against you. 

Quality 7: Positive Self-Esteem
"Your mood and outlook on life affect the way you see the world and how you interact with it. Total winners are positive, powerful people who make people feel good and provide a good vibe to those around him/her."

Self-Esteem is being able to tell yourself that you can do it. You are able to keep your head high even in difficult situations. You don't let one bad grade or one's negative comments get to you because you know you are better than that. You believe in yourself every step of the way with little to no doubt in your mind. If something doesn't end up the way you want it, don't give up. You giving up is lowering your self esteem and for you to go and accomplish more things. You are going to keep think you're a failure. In reality, no one is a failure. Yeah you don't succeed at some things but that doesn't make you a failure. You try your best and try again. Your self-esteem can be used anywhere you go. In school, your job, family etc. You always want to keep your self esteem high no matter what because that will help you accomplish the goals you want in life. Some ways to keep your self esteem high is to 1) Avoid negative self-talk. 2) Connect with people who love you. 3) Learn to be assertive. 4) Focus on your positives. There are a lot more way to keep your self esteem high but these are just the main ones to look at. Always think positive even with the negative talk you hear about yourself. Those people are mean because they are hurting themselves. Keep your head high and I promise nothing can go wrong. Don't give up and just believe in yourself all the time. 

Quality 8: Positive Self-Dimension
Total winners like in the present. They know that now is all there is. They don't get caught up in the past or worry about the future. They simply handle the business that they can handle which is stuff going on today, now. 

To have self dimension, you are looking beyond yourself for meaning in life. At the same time you don't worry about what's going to happen in the future or worry about how your past went. You simply focus on what is going on in the moment. If you focus too much on the future, you're not going to have the life you wanted as a teenager. Your future forms when everything is going good in the present. If you stay focused on what to accomplish for later on, then your dreams will come true. Being focused too much on the past and/or future, will get you distracted from what actually is going to happen in the present. You have every right to think about your future but don't get lost in it. Focus on making your future the best it can be because that's what matters. By you having the future you want, you must make the best of the present. Believe in yourself and that will take you as far as you need to go. Only you have the knowledge of what's going to happen for your life. You are the driver to your future. Make it the best ever and nothing can go wrong. 

Quality 9: Positive Self-Awareness
Total winners are aware of their power. They understand that they can be anything with enough effort and determination. 

Self-Awareness is the conscious knowledge of one's own character, feelings, motives and desires. The ability to take an honest look at your life without attachment to it being right or wrong. The process of you succeeding will be stressful and sometimes painful but in the end you get a greater self-awareness. You have become more aware of what's going on in your life and the things you need to do to become successful. You don't conceive your life as right or wrong. You go by how it is now. No one's life is right or wrong because nobody is perfect. You will succeed in life and you will fail. You need to learn to not let that bring you down. You should learn from that so you can succeed once more. Keep that self-awareness with you at all times because it will help you in your life. It will help you with situations you know are coming and situations that come out of nowhere. Don't let anything bring you down. Whether you are right or wrong, keep your head high. Learn from your mistakes and move on with life. Keep on going to accomplish those goals you have set for yourself. 

Quality 10: Positive Action
Total winners take positive action with their business and with their friends and family. They are uplifting and motivating individuals who inspire the best from themselves and others.
