Last year, I would be intimidated real easily and put myself down and not accept myself of who I am. I want to be able to help myself and help others become stronger in personality and in physical because from what I see everyday, people are putting each other down and becoming depressed and suicidal. Last year, was a year where it got a lot of people down and give others a lot to think about their decisions, the people they're friends with, and reflect on negative things that make people reflect on negative things and make them angry about themselves. Girls would be mad at themselves that they would never be prettier or as pretty than most girls in school and they shouldn't think that and be happy that they're already beautiful. Guys don't have much of what they feel mad about themselves, but they all have something secretly of what they want and they know that they don't need something to make them better and they're already just fine. Now, people are excited or terrified of what will come along this year.

Once I take that step on the first place podium I know that I have achieved everything. 2017 is my year!]]> 2017-01-04 17:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145317202 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145317239 I chose the word chill. I chose this word because all through 2016 I would become stressed frequently. I want 2017 to be a year where I can be doing good in school and be stress free. Last year that was not the case I was worried about everything I would do. I would always worry about how people looked at me. But this year I really do not want to think like that. 2017 will be the year when I do things how I want to do them and not let other opinions change my thinking. ]]> 2017-01-04 17:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145317239 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145317432 I chose the word accomplish because I want to accomplish many more things in 2017 than 2016.

The first thing that you may think of for organize is like putting stuff in to different spots for easy access, but for me it is different.  The reason for me choosing this word is that I feel that I need to be able to have a better schedule and time management. It also ties in with studying which I need to do a lot more.  I feel that I need to be overall more organized which is why I chose organize.

Without trying nothing would get done. Whenever I work hard I know that I tried hard. as long as you try you can do anything.

Trying gives me hope to do things I thought I could never do.

By practicing the sports I play everyday, I will hopefully get better throughout the year.  Without practicing i will never get better which is why I chose this word over the others. I chose this word because of how it will benefit me in the future.]]> 2017-01-04 18:42:46 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145348538 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145350842 “Happiness is dependent on self-discipline. We are the biggest obstacles to our own happiness. It is much easier to do battle with society and with others than to fight our own nature.” As Dennis Prager said, we are dependent on self-discipline and in order to achieve happiness and success, we must be the master of our own mind, hence why I chose it. I feel that in order to overcome my procrastination and little patience, I must remember the discipline I require or as Prager stated, I must fight my own nature. In this new year, I plan to practice playing my instrument for a few hours each day and that requires perseverance and self-control, both which go hand in hand with discipline. So, even when I find myself frustrated and want to quit, I will just think of discipline and remember that in order to achieve what I desire to, I must have the discipline that I need. ]]> 2017-01-04 18:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145350842 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145358506 All my life I have just tried to fit in with the group and follow directions. I always was quiet and never spoke up. I was elected as a leader in my boy scout troop but I don't really do anything. I am second chair in my section. I know can play well enough to be section leader, but I don't have the leadership skills. This year I want to become section leader. I want to be a person to take charge and control a situation. I want to stand out and be my own person not someone who tries to fit in.]]> 2017-01-04 19:12:32 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145358506 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145359841 I chose the word dominant because that is what I want to be. I want to do my best in everything I do. If I can be the best I will always succeed. This word will help me because I always will try my hardest and do my best in anything I do. When you are dominant you know you achieved everything you wanted.]]> 2017-01-04 19:17:13 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145359841 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145360185 I chose the word Persistence. I chose this word because I want to be persistent. I don't want to just give up on things that are difficult, or that I just don't feel like continuing, I want to go through the work and finish everything. I don't want to stop because I don't want to continue, I want finish and build on that.]]> 2017-01-04 19:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145360185 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145360549 I chose the word focus because sometimes when I am listening to instructions or reading, I start thinking about other things and stop listening. It is very annoying when I have to ask the person next to me what the teacher said or read a whole page over again. I want to stop this habit because it is very annoying and not very good. This year I would like to focus more. ]]> 2017-01-04 19:19:33 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145360549 21rosalesk https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145361182 I chose the word strength because I want to become a stronger athlete and I want to keep moving forward in life. I also chose this word because I need the strength to keep going after failing. Strength allows me to be a great soccer player. The saying, fall three times but get up four describes how strength is included in my life.]]> 2017-01-04 19:21:21 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145361182 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145361948 I chose the word challenge for my one word resolution. I chose this because I want to challenge myself. I want to challenge myself to get more active, to not argue with siblings, and get better grades.]]> 2017-01-04 19:24:12 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145361948 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145362662 I choose determined because I am determined to do better this year. One of the things I want to do is get better grades than last year. Another thing I would like to do is get a better time in running in general. ]]> 2017-01-04 19:26:25 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145362662 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145363709 I chose the word on going because it is something that will stick with me all of my life. Every obstacle that I go through I will keep going and pushing on. Anything that horrible that happens in my life i'll still push for hope. My dad tells me this everyday to get me through the hard stuff.

My dad is a football coach so I hear all his motivation speeches he gives to his team. Also the way some of the football players work hard and never give up motivates me to work hard just like them. I play volleyball and basketball so when I need the motivation I think back to everything I was taught by my dad. The quarterback of my dad’s team,Dylan Scritchfield, is the team mate who motivates me the most. He is a 5’9”, 180 pound quarterback who will knock down a 260 pound defender in a heartbeat. He comes in first and is the last to leave, he does whatever my dad asks him, and will help me when I need it. He is the most hard working football player that I have ever met.  I will use motivation to go through the hard parts of any practice, I will motivate all my teammates and my dad’s team, and I will help anyone who needs motivation. I will try my hardest to motivate anyone and myself throughout 2017. ]]> 2017-01-04 19:33:21 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145364630 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145365221 The word I choose was determination. I choose determination because I want to be determined to do things. Like I want to be determined to practice sports and I want to be determined to be determined to listen  my parents. I wasn't that good at being determined to do stuff in 2016, but I definitely can do better now. I really feel I could be more determined this year.]]> 2017-01-04 19:35:09 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145365221 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145365807 Contemplation, a deep reflection of thought.  That is what I would like to accomplish in the year 2017. The past year I made many new friends, and a lot of them are my best friends,due to right now. I had to make decisions in my past to decide how I want my life to be. I had to contemplate my actions. My past wasn´t the best it could be, but it is much better. My way in treating people when I was young, was rude, and my emotion and people I have matured with helped me with that. I am very grateful for all the people. I will contemplate all the decisions I will make in the future.]]> 2017-01-04 19:36:59 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145365807 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145388775 I chose the word confidence because in 2016 I wasn't really confident in myself so this year I want to gain self confidence and be myself. I also need confidence in everything I do, school, dance, singing, piano, etc. I need to tell myself that I can do it and hopefully I can gain self confidence. ]]> 2017-01-04 21:26:30 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145388775 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145459479 The word i chose to help me through 2017 was widen. This word means that i’m going to widen my personality. I’m going to try and and talk to people that I would never usually. Widening up to many things will help me to see more that i can do in life. I could learn that i like to do something that i would have never found out before. I hope that i remember this word and it helps me to become a more educated and a better person this year.]]> 2017-01-05 13:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145459479 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145461023 The word i chose for 2017 is Hardworking. One reason is because if I am hardworking, than that could affect my grades. Also, If I am hardworking in sports, and activities outside of school it could make me a better athlete. Hardworking could also help me accomplish any goals i set for 2017. I feel that Hardworking is a word that describes my goals for 2017.]]> 2017-01-05 13:20:18 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145461023 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145461692 I chose the word phenomenal. I chose this because it is a very motivational word. Every time I hear that word I think of one of Eminems most motivational songs “Phenomenal” that he wrote for the movie Southpaw. The song motivates you to not let anyone push you around and be yourself. And it motivates me to work for school work and work hard in sports. Also everyone is phenomenal in their own ways because everyone is different. This is why I chose the word phenomenal for my 2017.]]> 2017-01-05 13:23:07 UTC https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145461692 https://padlet.com/paddickl/9fgpjy0weik1/wish/145681722 I picked the word preparation because, it explains what I want to achieve this year. One of my old coaches said, when an opportunity comes you need to prepare for it, or it will just go by. I believe that that is right. It also applies to life let alone softball. If I want to become something in life I need to prepare for it by going to school and taking my time to achieve it. I've been playing softball for about 10 years. If I didn't prepare for it I wouldn't be where I am today. From my preparation, I've been asked for my junior year to play softball in Europe. This is an opportunity that doesn't come this often. I've put in the time and work to achieve this goal. If I keep working hard I will accomplish this goal
