    1. You have to teach yourself some things and make yourself ready for things. If you can do those things you have a lower chance of failing.

    2. This means that you can't rely on other people to teach you everything. You have to do things and put in work in order to not fail. If you can prepare yourself then you have a lower chance of failing compared to the ones that aren't prepared.

    3. This matters because other people make excuses like "I didn't know how" or "You didn't teach me this." People need to teach themselves somethings every once in while. Some say that you learn more from yourself then from others. They are lazy so they make others show them how to do something. Maybe a little effort is all it takes. That's why this matters.

    Another way this matters is that people show up to things unprepared. They think they need others help to prepare. All you need is yourself to get prepared. If your ready for it, you can achieve it. I think a lot of people want to achieve what they want but they don't prepare themselves to achieve it.

    I can apply this to my life by teaching myself things. I will always try to do things without somebody else and maybe I'll teach myself better than anybody else can. I will also always prepare myself. I want to succeed but I can't go for it unless I'm ready. Even if I don't succeed when I'm prepared, I probably got further than someone who wasn't.

  2. 1)For me the quote is saying the harder you work for something the more chances you have to achieve it. When you work that hard it’s harder for you to fail. That’s what the quote means to me.
    2)This means to always be prepared for whatever comes your way. To work hard in practice so it could be easy in games. It means to not be afraid of failure. It means that you can take the risks.
    3) This matters because when you try to do everything at the last second it’s overwhelming. But when you prepare and work for it, it’ll be so easy you’d be able to do it with your eyes closed.The hard work is what gets you far. Hard work and dedication helps people to achieve their goal. It helps them succeed in life.
    I can apply this to my life by putting in the extra hours at the gym. By putting those extra hours in I can get stronger. I also can gain fore endurance and be a tank. In soccer I’d be the strongest one that’s more physically and mentally prepared. With that attitude no one’s gonna stop me. That’s what I could do.

  3. 1. This quote means that the more effort you give the more education you get the more prepared you are for life and all its obstacles. I think that the effort you put in pays off but it is all about the effort you put in.

    2.This means that if you work hard your life becomes easier in the future which I personally like to work hard and let the grades show for itself. When I do my homework I know this is for my grade which will get me in to a good college and all that work will pay off.

    3. This means that when you have knowledge people notice it and that gives you a good rep which won't cause you to be a dropout. A lot of stories on the news of people who dropped out of school and our now big I think took a risk and it payed off. But knowledge is keys to many great chances in life given to you. And it's given to you simply for knowing your stuff.
    If I enter a college I'll know it is because of the effort put in not because of luck. My knowledge represents how smart I am and my choice making. That is what this quote means to me.

    1.In my own words I think this means the you never have to give up on anything no matter what it is just keep going forward. And also to never look backward for to long because you will get lost in past. All you have to do is to never think on the past for to long and start thinking on what you can do.
    2. For me this means the you can do any thing you can dream.You only have to look forward and never lose the hope on it.You can always make your dreams real if really want them to become real.
    3.This matter because it can teach you how to make your dreams become real.Just keep moving forward and don't go backwards.Always try to do your best on everything you do. never give up on things the you haven't even start them.
    I can apply this to my life by the way of never giving up on things the I haven't even start them. I can also try to do my best on everything I do to accomplish my dreams.I will never say I can do it When I haven't even start it.

    #1) The quote by Stuart Pearce is stating that the more education and effort you put into your education will make the chance of you failing seem less as a problem.
    \
    #2) By reading this quote and thinking about the lesson or message the speaker is trying to portray in this quote I think he is saying that if you are determined and putting all the effort you got in your life and doing what needs to be done to benefit your life then you will decrease the chances of you failing. When I read this quote I think that no matter the obstacle in life as long as I try and do what needs to be done I cannot fail.

    #3) Knowing this message can help me know that if I don't want to fail in life then I need to try and do what needs to be done in order to help my life. This can help me change what I think about being successful in life because now I know that if I just try and is prepared then I will not fail. I can apply this type of thinking to help me in life because if I am having a tough time in school and don't get what the teacher is teaching, I will know that if I go to the teacher and do everything I can to help me understand the work then I will not fail.

    1. The more you learn and the more you try, the more likely you are to succeed. The work must be done for the results to happen.

    2. Based on my understanding this means that the the more you do, the harder you work, the more likely you are to be successful. I f you are going to be trying to become successful, then work for it. Also for studying its the same, you are more likely to take down a rival if you study their techniques.

    3.This matters because the more you know and the more you try, the more likely you are to be successful. This can be used in plenty of aspects in my life. There are so many situations i could use this in my life like studying for a test. Also for SR-LA i am getting better as practice and effort kicks in, i can jog 3 miles nonstop because i practiced. I have used this in my life before i knew someone quoted it.

    This is important because its the method to success.Honestly, who wouldn't want to be successful? If you want to be better at a sport or start being better making it to degree you have to put in the effort. There isn't a plate being handed to you, you must try and that's the only way you will be successful. Don't wait for the moment, just do it, train, work, learn everything to make you better than you were before.

    1. From the bottom line you learn to work your way back up. If you prepare yourself you will be successful.

    2. Based upon my understanding this means that you should never give up. No matter the obstacles you should keep on trying. If you work hard you won't fail at what you want to do.

    3. This matters in many ways. It can teach people that no matter what, you can do the things you want. You have to keep moving forward and don't look back. Think the positive way and not the negative way because it will bring you down. Open new doors and try new things. Nobody can tell you if you can do it or not. You have to believe in yourself.
    This also matters because it can influence people to influence others. Don't bring yourself down just because you can't do some things. There is so much more stuff you can do to make your life happy. Surround yourself with people that have a positive mind and that you feel comfortable with . Everything depends on your decisions and not others.
    I can apply this to my life to make it better in many ways. This will give me more knowledge about life. This will teach me that obstacles shouldn't bring me down. I will learn to not waste my energy and keep on trying. This will help me be successful and give advice to others.

    1. The more you do to help yourself with your education the less chance at failing you have. Always do your best.

    2. Based upon my understanding this means, that the harder you try the less chance you have at failing. Always do what you can to help yourself, because it will serve your future well. Never stop believing.

    3. This matters, because it's important to know the harder you try the less likely you are to fail. Many people don't try their best, because they're afraid of failing. They don't know they just have to try harder. And, if they do then they're not trying hard enough. Hard enough to win.

    I can apply this to my life by trying harder myself and not failing. Always knowing there is a chance of winning. There can be a chance of failing, but not if I try hard enough to win. I can spread the awareness. Tell people to never give up and try harder.

    People need to know the importance of trying. Even though there might be the chance of failing they must still give it a chance. It's better to try and end up winning or failing than having to wonder the rest of your life what could have been. There is always a chance of everything. Risk it.

  11. 1.) The quote is saying that with a good educational background you'll have more open doors as you grow. It means that you will be able to have a better and more paying career with a good education and being ready for those doors to open.


    2.) Based upon my understandings, this means that if you have a good educational background, you have a better chance of becoming more successful. If you are prepared for more education and a good career as well then you will most likely have a much better career than others. It'll be a great advantage.


    3.) This matters because it'll inspire me to get more education. The more education i'll have the smarter i'll be. The smarter I am the easier it will be to have open doors to jobs/careers i never thought i'd be able to have. If I keep this mentality of knowing that the more education I get, or the longer I stay in school, it’ll be easier to have a good career. A good paying one as well.

    The part about being a prepared person is a big one as well. I need to be prepared for anything at all times. I’m gonna need to be prepared for exams, interviews, all types of stuff. Even if it’s unnecessary. I mainly need to be prepared for what to expect in school and when I get a job, on how difficult it could be.

    1) The quote in my own words is saying the more you prepare yourself he less chance there is of failing. Always prepare yourself before doing something. You will succeed more in life if you prepare yourself.

    2) Based upon my understandings this is saying you always have to prepare for everything before you do it. For example, there is a soccer team hat has there finals coming up an they really want to win the championship so they have to go to soccer practice in order to get better at soccer. So you always have to practice.

    3) I will apply this to my life by practicing before I do anything. This will help me because I will succeed more in life. For example, In school i will study before I do a test or a quiz. I will study because it an get me to a better grade.

    This can also help me succeed in life by helping my mom make food. I will have to practice before helping her make food but am sure I will get better once i start practicing. It will help me succeed in life because then I can cook for mom parents an siblings when my mom isn't feeling well.

    #1. I believe the proper summary for this quote would be the fact that, if you shall succeed, prepare, achieve, dedicate, among your goals, then their will be a smaller chance at failing. No matter how well you "THINK" you're going to fail, just put in the effort so you will be able to comprehend, and be confident that, you will have the courage to at least pass, or have that confident result afterwards when your conscience gives you the feeling that, you tried your best. Or you know that you tried your best.

    #2. Based upon my understanding, this means that you should work your hardest, to get the best result. The harder you work, then the less chances that you will have a chance at failing. If people haven't heard, the harder you work, the better chances of it paying out. Don't you want nice cars, a nice sized house, money, wealth? Then work for it. Nothing comes easy to anyone.

    #3. This matters to me because when I was younger, I went through a small phase where, I couldn't concentrate at all. I just always got distracted by the smallest things. No one could tell me anything. I was so stubborn. Until I reached middle school. Now there, was the point where I had to think, what I wanted to do to better myself in the future. The main reason, was because I didn't want to be poor or going through a poverty state. So I decided to work harder than I've ever worked in my life. Everything that I've been through, was just a pain, and I didn't want to go through that again. So after that change, I've started being more organized, got better grades, increased my socialism. And just bettered myself as a person in general.

    1. There is no such thing as a "bottom line." As long as you can educate yourself, you increase your chances at success.

    2. To me I think this can mean many things. If you think you're at the bottom, you're not. If you have the access to education then you can always do better and become fail proof at it.

    3. I believe that this quote can mean many things to today's society. A lot of people do things but then stop. They do something to a certain limit then just stop. They don't push themselves hard enough. All they do is tell themselves that "This is good enough." Not many people try to go beyond that. They never try to exceed their limits. That's why to become fail proof, you must exceed your limits and go beyond.

    You might be questioning why did I bring up all those other topics in the previous paragraph. A reason why I did that was to show how those important topics relate to the quote. The quote mentions that the more preparation you have at something, the better you will be at it. I believe that that phrase from the quote is entirely true. The quote explains how to be good at something you essentially have to prepare for it. That is why the quote matters so much.

    There are many ways of applying this quote to my life. Even though if I think I am at the bottom, it basically means I have more chances at education. Essentially giving me the opportunity to learn more. Which is something good. Education is a vital piece of our history. Without it we wouldn't be here today making all these new advancements in technology and all. The last phrase of the quote can also be applied to my life. The more you prepare/practice at something, the less chances you have of failing. The more I practice at the things I like to do, the less chances I have of failing.

  15. 1. What I believe this quote means is that the more effort you give to anything in life the more education you get the more preparation you have the better chances of you succeeding in life. I think that the more effort you put in, it will eventually pay off.

    2.This means that if you put in the time and effort in life it becomes easier in the future. Which I as an individual like to work harder to work to be successful. When I get homework I tend to get it done on time before the day it's due.

    3. Based on perspective this means that when your smart/knowledge people recognize it and that gives you a good rep which won't cause you to dropout of school. A lot of stories on the news or the internet or even social media there's people who dropped out of school and our now big I think they took a risk and it payed off. But knowledge is keys to many great chances in life given to you. And it's simply handed to you because of all your hard work in life.
    If I enter in to a University or even a college I will know it is because of the 120% effort I put in and that will show up on my records put in.. My knowledge represents who I am and what I do as a living. This is why this matters.

    1. I believe that the more you educate yourself and prepare in life lowers your chances of failing. You need to prepare for hardships you may come across in life.

    2. Based upon my understanding, this quote means that in order to succeed, you must get an education and prepare yourself for things that come up in life. Getting an education increases your chances of getting a job you enjoy, and more great opportunities can come your way. When you prepare yourself for hardships you might face on a daily basis, you will be ready to face it and know how to handle the situation better.

    3. This quote matters because it shows you the importance of taking your education seriously. Many students take their education for granted. They believe it is unimportant, that they can still get a good job and earn a decent salary without ever going to college, or graduating from college. However, they don't realize that when they don't get educated and prepared for life, their chances of failing increase. Without education, students will not be prepared for daily life. They might get stuck in a job they dislike, earning very little money, compared to someone who went and got an education and was prepared for life.

    I can apply this to my life in many ways. One of these ways is by taking more importance to assignments in school. Instead of procrastinating ion assignments I know are easy, or not studying for a test I think I'm prepared for, I can get the assignment done early and study for the test and be even more prepared. Another way I can apply the concept of the quote into my life is by getting more involved in school. In school, there are always opportunities to get involved. However, I don't participate because I'm either afraid of getting judged, or because I am lazy. Laziness is something that affects both students and adults everywhere. They often let opportunities fly by because of it.

    Applying these concepts to my life will improve it in two different ways. The first way is by taking more importance in assignments in school, my grades will improve. With an improvement in my grades, I will be more likely to get into a college or university I want to go to. The second way, getting more involved in school, will give me the chance to get to know people better and learn new things from them. By getting more involved in school activities and events, I can meet more people and learn new things from them. Some of these things can be small, like studying tips or learning a new way to manage my time better.

    1.In my perspective,getting more education and preparing yourself can get you less chances of failing.The more you can get and the more you can do will result in advancing on your way to your wanted path.

    2.Upon my understanding,this means that having more education and being prepared more can make the chances of failing less.Not giving up on what you need help on will actually make you stronger and increase the chances of you not actually falling back and failing.Preparing yourself can change the way you look at things throughout the process.

    3.This quote has many reasons or ways it can matter to your daily tasks in life.You can also apply this quote to your life and make it better than what it already is.A lot of kids that go to school only do whats necessary to graduate or move on to the next grade level.However, they never go beyond that limit which just gives them certain strengths like for example being able to solve a math equation or writing an essay for English.Getting more of the resources you have which in this case is school and preparing yourself can increase the skills that you will learn.
    This quote matters in life in many different forms.One of the many ways it can matter is because a lot of students only do what they are told to do ,so they never go beyond that limit.They don't go farther because they think that they either don't need it or that its wont be helpful later on in life.This matters because some students decide to go far but actually just want to do it for their parents not because they actually want to.They think that its a punishment when what their parents actually want is for them be prepared and get the best education they can possibly get.
    I can apply it to my life and make it better in many different ways.One of the ways I can apply it to my life is by getting tutoring if I don't get certain things about a subject that will stop me from achieving my goal in life.Another way would be that, I can stay after school and talk to my teacher about what's stopping me from advancing.I would also join clubs that will help me to advance or prepare myself for future events.Like for example, I am joining a club that will useful when it comes to applying to get into a college.That club will help me prepare myself when I go and apply for a college and will lead me to get all the education I can get to achieve going to college.

  20. 1. The main thing in life is education. When you are more prepared for what you can do, you have a better chance of not failing.

    2. What this means to me is that you must stay concentrated in our education. We must all be prepared for anything coming your way in life. If you are prepared, there is a small chance that you will fail.

    3. I think this matters because education should be in every bodies life. If people don't have a good education or don't an education at all, that those people won't be successful. Education is required for every one but some people just don't have the money for it. Education is something every one needs to have if they want to be successful. I think that if every one had education, we would live in a better world.
    I can put this in my life by actually taking advantage of the stuff I'm being taught. I need to pay attention to the things I'm being taught. I put this in my life by using this in my homework assignments.

  21. As long as you come prepared, and the more you educate yourself, then you won’t fail. Being at your best gives you a better chance for success.

    If you are prepared and educated, then you won’t struggle as much as others that don’t. The chance of you failing is going to be very small because you will be at your best. The more you educate yourself, and the more you prepare yourself, the more closer you are to succeed your goal.

    This matters because people are not prepared for what is coming to them. Like a test, if you don’t come prepared and didn’t study, then you will most likely fail. If you studied and came prepared, then you have a very small chance of failing. Another example is college, if you are not educating yourself, then you might not even end up going to college. If you are only educated, but not prepared, then you will have trouble going to college. You need to be educated and prepared to do anything. Especially if it is something as important as college. You can apply this to your life by always being educated and prepared for anything you plan to do. It will lower your chance of failing and you will most likely succeed. Everyone has failed at something because they either weren’t educated or prepared. You can agree that if you were prepared and educated, you would have most likely succeeded.

  23. 1. The more you study the more you're going to get an A. The more you practice or the more dedication you give into something the less chance you have of failing.
    2.The more education you get the more the doors open. The more jobs you can get the less failure of not having a job you get. The quote is saying you should work your hardest if you want the best for yourself. Nothing just comes to your legs you have to earn it.
    3. I can apply this to my life to tell myself that education is important. I really don't like to come to school but i know its for the best of me. I want to be a police officer and i know its not easy to get in the department. So that's why i try my best to get good grades and try my best to strive to get in the police department. That's why I come to school to achieve my goal i wouldn't want to be working at McDonalds.
    And the more i push my self to study and pass test is for just that reason. All the work i do all the test i get is all to be in the sheriff. And those days that i just want to give up i tell myself what do i want to see myself when i'm older. If i want a good car. Do i want a good house a good family? Then i get my stuff done.

  24. 1) The quote is telling us that our main concern in life should be our education. It's also saying the more you do the more you would get it.
    2) So what i think this is saying is that always stay focused on school. It's also saying don't let no one stop you from believing in your dreams.
    3) This matters to me because i want to have a future head of me. This also matters to me because when i older i wanna be the one in the family to succeed in life. Another reason why is because i want to be able to take care of myself when i get older. I can apply to this because i don't want my parents to still be taking care of me when i have my own kids. I wanna be the one to thank my mom for everything she did for me and i wanna be the one to take care of her. I just want the best for me. i also just hope that i do the right thing.
    6) My summary is going to be about always worry about your education. I just want everyone to do the right thing when you grow up. Most people laugh at when they see homeless people not even knowing that they future might be the same way. Never miss a party if you can help it. No matter what people tell you just always keep moving forward. If you have drama with someone avoid it don't let messy stuff distract you surround yourself with people you wanna be around. Be okay with what you ultimately can't do, because there is so much you can do.

    1.To me what I think the quote is saying that education is very important to have in your life .The more education you have the greater chance of you being successful will occur.




    2. Based upon my understanding this means that the more education that you gain the greater chance of you being fabulous will occur. I also think that the more you prepare yourself for the future and study you will become successful .




    3. This message matters because if your in a sport you will want to keep training and practicing to be the best you can be . By practicing and training you will probably have a much more less possibility on failing on a game and a greater chance of you winning. Another reason why this matters because for example if your studying for a test you will have a less possibility of you failing the test because you studied for it and prepared yourself too. The more you take the time to study or prepare yourself with what you were working on you will most likely succeed .

    I can apply this to my life to make it better by preparing myself with the knowledge I will need to accomplish my goal. I can also use this message by never doubting myself on what I can do and can't do because anything is possible if you work for it. I can also use this in my life to meek it better by always trying my best for everything and never giving up because I give up I will never get to see what I was maybe able to accomplish. Lastly I can use this message by filing myself with a lot of knowledge because knowledge can be used in your everyday life .
