    2) No I have not considered this question. The difference between good and great is that " good " is having something, it's not the highest but it's more than average. " Great " is going above good, and having more than just something.


    3.) What I do in high school is going to be the best. It's going to take time but it's gonna be the best. It's gonna be the best because i'm gonna sacrifice my good grades and have them become great grades. I'll have to sacrifice my social time and friends but it'll be worth it. Especially if i'm going from good to great.

    I don't want to be mediocre because my family pushes me to higher than my limits, and I want to be someone successful. I feel like i'm already great but I know I can be better. I don't want to be mediocre. I want to be great.


    4.) This matters because I can make people in my life proud by being great. It'll put a smile on my family's face and that's what I live for. I can apply it to my life by having a better mentality. If I know that being great is better than being good it's what i'll strive for. I need to strive for the best.

    Striving for the best is being great, so I already have that positive mindset with me. With that mindset i'll be unstoppable, and great.

    2. The difference between good and great is good is like getting to the point you want to be at. However, great is like exceeding it going more than 100%. I have considered it and always strive for great. Never do just the right amount do more.

    3. My objective for high school is to be one of the best. I want to get good grades and be in the top 10 percent. I don't want to just be good in school but great in school. Put in more effort than the rest even if they put 100% in it, I will put more. I have to stand out from the rest.

    I am not not okay with mediocrity because doing just enough isn't gonna get you far. You have to do more than enough to really succeed. You have to put in 110% to go far with your life. Doing just the minimum isn't what you want. I like to see people go farther and do more than what they're expected to.

    4. This matters because people don't go past their expectations. If they don't they'll never get better at something. They have to put all the effort they can and do more. They have to be great at whatever they do not just good. If they want to get better and succeed with it they must put in 110% or more effort.

    I can apply this to my life to make it better by always going for great. I can always go for more than expected and do more than just enough. I won't stop where everyone thinks I will but go farther. If I don't then it won't be satisfying. I will put my all in the things I do like school.

    2. Be good is your doing alright but your not great. Being great is doing the best that you can possibly do. I have considered this question once in my life.

    3. I know this year is going to define me being a great scholar and a great basketball player. I try my best everyday to finish my priorities. I will also make it my objective to be a great basketball player. I didn't make it in the basketball team, but it doesn't mean I stop trying to be the best basketball player I can be. A university that I am trying to get into is USC.

    What I want is to be successful. I want to be the best basketball player that I can be. My heart is telling me that I should never give up and always keep trying to be the best I can be.My heart also tells me that I should never give up in school. My heart want me to be a great scholar and a great athlete.

    4. This matters because it's something I need to do. It matters because I want to be successful. I can apply this to my life by not giving up on any thing. I can apply this to my life by doing the best I can. I believe that i can succeed.

  5. 1.Good means to be desired or approved of. Great means above normal or average. The difference between good and great is good is when you're doing it to impress others. Great is when you're doing it for yourself. I have considered this question before. Good and great are more different than i thought.
    2.Everything i'm doing is for me. I honestly don't care what anybody thinks of me. My heart is craving greatness i'm not going to settle for nothing less. I do this because i want to be great in life not living a basic life.
    3. This matters because people don't truly know the difference between good and great. Most people do things to get the approval of others when really they should do it for themselves. When you do that , that's being good. To change to being great you have to start doing it for yourself. You have to truly want it for you and only for you
    I can apply this to my life because i want to go somewhere in life. Im not going to settle for being a basic person. I want to succeed in life and im ready to make the sacrifices in order to do do.

    2) The difference between being good and being great is that when you are being good you're equivalent to any other person . You aren't setting higher goals for yourself, you are setting up average goals for your life. If you are being great you are being different from those who are good. If you're great you are achieving higher goals than the average person. Being good is a mediocre feeling but great is an outstanding feeling. I have considered this question by observing the people I think are my inspiration and at their accomplishments and try to be great like them.

    3) By entering high school and getting the real feel of high school I have thought about my future. I am going to define my high school experience by trying to be the best at what I attempt to do. At first I may have been mediocre but now since I have had the experience I believe I can be the best. I want to be the best because I want to prove to myself, not just to others, that I can be the best.

    My heart is yearning for greatness because mediocre means that I tried but I didn't push myself to the max. By having greatness I can prove that all the hard work I put into that task paid off. Being mediocre is a basic feeling everyone has but the greatness feeling is what a hard worker feels.

    4) Knowing the steps to greatness is important to know because people that feel that they try but still aren't successful will know how to be great. If people knew the key steps to being successful will motivate people to do good at school, work, or their tasks.

    I can apply the key steps to being great to my life by following them. If I want to be great I need to put extra effort into all of my work and set higher standards for myself. If I am great in my life will help me make my life the best of my life

    The difference of being good and being great is that being good means that you are better than average or being average. But being great means that you are better than the people that are good and everyone else. I have never considered this question

    My highschool experience is going to be defined by me striving to be one of the best. Because it will make me feel and act better. Also it will help me in the future because I will be able to get a good job and be at a good school. Striving to be the best is going to make everyone happy including my family and my friends. I don’t like being average so I try to be even better than most. My heart is yearning for greatness. I think everyone should yearn for greatness because it will give you success. If you're not yearning for greatness, then you will not be very good or stay average.

    This matters because people think that being average is okay. It is not and people should try there best at becoming the best. But you have to work hard if you want to be the best. If being the best was so easy, then there would be no one better than another. You have to make sacrifices, grind, you’ll have to give up your current opportunities get even better opportunities. If you stay average you will not be at everyone else's level. You’ll be in the shadow of the people that strived for greatness.
    You can apply these concepts to your life by always being your best. Don’t let anyone convince you that being average is ok. Know that you need to work hard if you want to be the best. You're going to need to make sacrifices and give up many things that you love to get to an even better spot in your life. Know that if you are the best, you will be known and everyone will respect what you do. Strive to be the best to make yourself feel happy, your family, and your friends.

    2.The difference between good and great is that good is decent or better than normal and great is better than that.The only reason why I do not consider this question is that it seems rather simple to understand that great is greater than good. Having learned the simplicity of the English language that also goes for words bad and worse. In metaphorical terms, this can be questionable and taken into consideration, do i want a good score or a great score? and will i have to input more effort.

    3.My high school experience is rather well, can't say its bad, I ma surprised I made it this far in as to speak of running and engineering. I ran the Puente marathon yesterday it seemed rather exhausting but the training paid off as i managed to do 10 kilometers. I can not say I am trying to be the best because I know I am not, at least not yet if it ever happens. There won't be conformity of being mediocre since I know I can go for better.

    I am conformed with mediocre even though I should be looking for greatness. The more I think about it, there isn't a real reason why I am conformed with less i just am. If there wasn't any way to make the problems solved, I wouldn't solve them and find a path around it. I settle for anything which is great for things such as getting a accustomed to a new ambiance.The truth is that I can accept less because I am used to it, I can fight for more if I chose to though.

    4.This matters because it helps people shoot for greatness. If people are happy with living paycheck to paycheck, they way improve their lifestyle with one word, greatness, working for it. Com-formality with things such as the limited is fine at an extent. If I know that there is an improvement to my life that I can have, then I will attempt to do it.If runners were happy with 6 minute miles, the Olympics would be rather boring.That would mean that being okay with less will make the world less. I can improve my life by trying to go for the 100% and try surpassing my past milestones and making new ones.

    2) The difference between good and great is the effort you make. You could be good at sports but you get great by practicing. Yes, I have. That's what gives me the energy to always give everything I got with everything I do.
    3) I want my high school experience to be defined as one of the best. I want to describe it as one of the best because with good grades you can get into a good college. Also, I'm a soccer player so if I have good grades and perform well in soccer I can also get college scholarships. I also want to gain all the knowledge I can get in high school to succeed in college. My saying is "Focus on the books and grind with the ball."
    Honestly, my heart is yearning for greatness. Everything I do I make it a competition because I always want to win or come in first place. I always want to be one of the best in class at school. I always want to be one of the best when I'm playing soccer. Finally, I always try to be the best son in the world for my parents. They sacrifice a loot for my sister and I could succeed. I just want to be the best at everything I do.
    4) This matters because all everyone really want to do in life is succeed and be the best you could possibly be. For example, everyone wonders I wonder what could've happened what would happen if I hadn't been texting. But I wouldn't because I can go an hour or two without my phone. This is why it matters.
    I can apply this to my life because it's opening my eyes and telling me that there is a lot more in this world other than social media. If every day for at least an hour I put down my phone I could do great things. For example, I can get my homework done faster and learn more, or I can go out and train to be a better soccer player. By doing this I can also get closer to my family and we could build an even better relationship. By sacrificing little things, I can achieve Great things.

    2.You may think that you are being "good" or "great".However, they both differ depending on your actions or the way you manage to get to the next level.The difference between being "good" or being "great" might be that one is considering yourself just giving the right amount of effort meanwhile the other is considering all the effort and sacrifice you make to get to the next level.So far, I haven't considered this question.

    3.Everyone's high school experience can be defined by many things.It can be defined by the things is good at or their goal.It may also depend if they are willing to do sacrifices.In my opinion,my experience is defined by the things I'm good at. I strongly agree with this because if you are good at something it can help you to expand opportunities for careers after high school.
    Supporting the way they think what defines their high school experience can lead to also agree with one of two other options. It can either be agreeing with mediocrity or wanting greatness.I believe that my opinion leads to me wanting greatness.I say that because if I expand my skills, I will be able to get better opportunities in the future.But I will also be able to gain better better choices that will help me become great with the help of sacrifices.

    4.The theme of this post can matter in many ways.One of the ways it can matter is by changing the perspective people see their experiences.For example, some people may see it at they just learning because they just want the right path meanwhile others learn to try and become great.Another way it matters is that a lot of others want to gain greatness however they don't know how to let somethings go.There are also ways to apply it to my life.
    There are also many ways to apply it to my life.One way I can apply it to my life is by making more sacrifices that will help me expand my experiences.Another way is by taking my experiences as practice or a way to see something.One of the last way is by trying my best to try and gain what I want with effort.There also many ways that will help me however these ways can lead me to gaining greatness with my energy of actually wanting greatness and the skills I'm good at.

    2. I  think the difference between being good and being great is huge. Not only does great sound better but it is better. You could live a good life but with effort you can live a great life.

    3. I like being one of the best but I know I will never e the best if someone else puts more effort than me. I have to put in hours of work to be great I have to study to be good at school i cant just see it once and hope I remember it. I need to put all my dedication into it. high school has showed me a lot and I hope my grades reflect my choices and dedication. I am usually not happy with an a i always want an a+ but if i don't get it i know it is because i did not make a real effort. 

    4. I can apply this to my life and know that everyday isn't given it is earned and everyday is a day to change your life and waiting for the perfect day will never come. I also believe that the effort ET put into himself and as he said went beast mode is what got him to turn his life around. I can apply this to my knowledge because I believe everyone can put in the effort to make it big.

    2. I believe being good is being average. You don't push yourself hard enough to do the extra work to move up. On the other hand, being great means that you have committed your time and effort to accomplish something. I have sometimes though about this to myself. Always try your best and do more than what is expected.

    3. To me I want my high school to be defined as me doing great. However I do not want to become the "best." I want to be able to do good but better than it. Being the best to me isn't always the greatest thing in my opinion. I want my high school to be defined as me doing great at something I do. Being the best is something I would prefer. Although it isn't my main objective to become the best. I want to be able to do good in school and be supportive for others that are in need of assistance.

    I honestly feel that my heart is yearning for the best. However my brain is telling me that being the best isn't always the greatest thing. If I can perform above average in something that I do, I am perfectly fine with that. However, I do prefer to do the best in it, but not so much. My objective is to just do better than my expectations. If I expect that I am going to get a B on a test, I will strive for an A.

    4. I believe that this can matter in many ways. All over the world, there is competition. People competing to become the best. For example, football teams. Their main goal is to become on of the top teams. They need to perform better than average. They need to sacrifice their time to train and work harder to become the greatest. I also believe this is important because a world without competition or people striving to become the greatest, everyone will be average. No one would try to go beyond their limits and achieve more.

    I also believe that the video can be applied to my life in many ways also. As I mentioned before, I don't always strive to become the best. I do what is better than average but not enough to become the best. I would prefer to become the best. However I believe that becoming the best will only give me one benefit and that benefit is reputation. I believe that becoming the best won't affect me in any way internally. On the other hand, I don't believe that becoming the best is wrong. It is always best to do more than your limits and do more than what is expected.

    2. The difference between being good and being great is that you don't need as much effort as you do in greatness. Being great takes a lot more effort and capability to accomplish. This is what I believe are the differences between the two.

    3.a My goal or objective I have for my high School years is to be well known by not just popularity but for being the most responsible and intelligent student. I want to know know what greatness feels like and I believe that putting in all my effort within the four years I have in high school. This will help me reach to my full potential. I don't want to just be good at what I do but actually make something much greater at of that and help the world in return. This is why I wouldn't want to just be define as good.

    3.b I truly believe that deep down my heart is yearning for greatness. I just need to crack that shell and break through to achieve my goal for greatness. I now know that it's not is easy to just be good at something or be great. But what I do know is that putting in the extra 120% effort will get you anywhere in life. I didn't always want to be great at really anything. But as I got older I soon realized that everyone has the potential to be good or great at something, you just need to give it a jump start.

    4. This maters to my life because in our society not many colored people want to be something more in life. We colored people don't really strike for greatness. So we need to all work together, get back on our feet and be great. From my experience, I thought I wasn't good at anything until many well known influential people told me that anyone has the ability to be whoever they like. So till this day I been working hard on trying to improve my grades. Now I'm taking honors classes and passing them. I'm going to keep on trying till I reach to success.

    2. The difference between being good and being great is the amount of sacrifices your willing to make to get to one point or the other. No, I have never considered this question. But, I have an idea on what the answer may be.

    3. I will do what I can to do my best. My objective may not be the greatest, but I will strive for it. I will try to do great in areas I understand. It may help my future. And, that's good.

    My heart doesn't want to be mediocre. I want a good future, so I will try my best. My heart is yearning for greatness. I want to be great in my future. My heart will help me.

    4. This matters, because not a lot of people want to end up being mediocre. They want to succeed in their future and prove to to others what they're capable of. They want to be strong. Prove people wrong about them. They are good.

    I can apply the message to my life to make it better by not being mediocre and always being true to myself. I shouldn't let myself down no matter what. One has to be strong for oneself, because no one will be strong for you. You are your own rock. You are strong.

    1. The difference between being good and being great for me is that being good is that you're okay at it and being great is like you're like just killing whatever you're playing or doing. I have really not considered this question about what is the difference between being good and being great. But i think if you're doing something and you think about this question you can ask you're self if you're good or your great.

    2. My High school experience is going to be defined as my trying to be one of the best one of the top kids of the high school. I would like to be the best so i can show my family that i care about my studies and also that i can show my friends that anybody can be in the top kids of high school. My heart tells my that i need to do good in school. That if i have any late work that i need to finish and if i'm lazy and i don't want to do my work that i have to for to get a good grade and to make my family proud with the good grades i try to get. Another thing my heart tells me is to try my hardest. I need to try my hardest and study for test. And if i do bad on test then i need to re-take it and try to get a better score for my grade.

    3. I can apply this to my life by sacrificing things in my life to be better at something. If i have a party but i have soccer practice at the same thing i can give up the party and go to practice so i can get better and show that i want to move up to club. If i have a game but i don't want to go cause its to early or something i have to sacrifice my sleep and go to my game to show i want to be better and i want to be a good soccer player. And if i want to eat junk food i have to sacrifice that two so i can have more stamina in the field and play better. You need to sacrifice a lot of things if you want to be good at what you love. If you want to go somewhere with what you love then you have to give up your time and a lot of stuff to become better or to that that to a farther place.

    2)The difference in great and good is that once your great your willing to make any sacrifices to make your life even better. Good is when you can do a little better to be great. No, I have never considered this question.

    3)I am trying to do whatever is possible to be great. As of now I am not great, but I am willing to be great. I am willing to be great because I think my life will be way better if I am great. I also , want to be great because I want to make all my family proud. In high school I want to be great and in my life.

    I am not ok with mediocrity because my family has always pushed me to be the best. I believe my family is correct because they want me to have a better future and that can happen by me being he best right now. If I am great right now I know I will become successful. I think if i am the best right now my family and I are going to be proud of me. My heart is yearning for greatness.

    4)Being great matters because if your great it means your going to be successful in life. By that I mean you will get into a good college, you'll have good job, have your own house, and have your own house. Being great right now matters a lot. Also a lot of people will be proud of you. You siblings will also have someone to look up on.

    This can make your life better because you will be an independent person. People will not be able to bring you down because your limits are too high. I will always be ready to do more than expected to make my family proud. You will also be very successful in life.

    2.The difference between good and great is that good is that good is something that is below greatness and still needs to be worked on. Great is when you have worked out through everything and you have succeeded .
    3. My high school experience is going be defined by me being defined at the best . The reason I say this is because everyone wants to be known as the best and not the average . In my opinion I think everyone wants to be known as the best academically in there whole school and not the one is who is always failing and never achieving anything . I also think that instead of being known as the worst its best to be known as the best that way you will be able to earn new opportunities and maybe even scholarships .
    My heart is yearning for better than good because its always better to be great . I think everyone wants to be great but its only in the matter that you take responsibility for the goals that you have been setting and actually achieving them . No one should settle for a okay or good because its always good to be great the reason is because great is more successful and being great can bring more opportunities .
    4. This matters because everyone wants to be great but not everyone is . The reason this matters is because if your great you will be able to gain more opportunities rather than not being great and not have good opportunities . For example if your great in academics and in school you be able to be accepted in colleges . If you are accepted in a college and pass you will get a job then you will get money . That is why I think its good to be great because the you will be able to get all those advantages in life .

    |2| I believe the difference between being good and great is the effort put in to being both. Every step of the way will be different towards achieving the accomplishment of being good or great. Every step of the way won't be the same as if you were going towards the good trail other than the great trail. And to answer the question,"have you ever considered the following question? What is the difference between good and great?" The answer is yes, I have considered give thoughts on the following question because recently, I've had a football tournament over in Santa Monica and the head coach of the team told me after the game that I did good, but according to the quarterback specified coach, he told me I did great. So at the same time because of that thesis statement, I believe that the opportunity of defining the difference between good and great can either be up to the receiver to preferentiate the situation or by a personal statement to himself.

    |3| My high school experience will be specifically towards being the best at what I know I can do. But most of all, I would be doing what I can do towards acting among the other competitors that I have trying to reach the same exact goal I am. Therefor for that specific reason, I will try my best to be harder and try harder than any other person that's in the effort to surplus me in the action of being more successful than I have the potential to possibly obtain.
    Personally, I am not okay with mediocrity, because mediocrity is basically like saying, "I do the minimum of whatever challenge comes upon I." That there is the worst that anybody can do. The bare minimum. You should always want to be on top of everything, and every time. Because regardless of what you think, and acknowledge, everybody has a different perspective than you do. You don't think of doing the exact same thing as someone else, all the time. Everything you think of, will be different. All the time. For example, if you think of being successful, wanting to be a doctor, but want to take shortcuts to becoming successful in the specific career; field. Everyone else who wants to become a doctor does NOT feel that way. Because apparently, they want it more than you do. Therefor, 96.8% will be the more chance that they will get their career goals more than you.

    |4| This ultimately matters for several reason. One, it highly shows you're work ethic to becoming what you want to be. And it also, shows how much you want, what you want, when you want it. You can't just expect something to randomly fall in your lap that exact moment you ask for it. That's just not how things work. You have to earn everything that you desire. You have to earn every little piece of your goals.. Your must-wants. You can't just expect success. You have to earn it.
    And I can apply this message to my life, by showing more of my accomplishments, and success to the world. Because before, I always kept almost everything to myself. My achievements were just astonishing, but no one every knew, and because of that, everyone looked down on me. And saw me as half of a teenage boy. But now, everyone knows who I am. I finally made a name for myself.

    3. My high school experience is going be defined by me being defined at the best . The reason I say this is because everyone wants to be known as the best and not the average . In my opinion I think everyone wants to be known as the best academically in there whole school and not the one is who is always failing and never achieving anything . I also think that instead of being known as the worst its best to be known as the best that way you will be able to earn new opportunities and maybe even scholarships .
    My heart is yearning for better than good because its always better to be great . I think everyone wants to be great but its only in the matter that you take responsibility for the goals that you have been setting and actually achieving them . No one should settle for a okay or good because its always good to be great the reason is because great is more successful and being great can bring more opportunities .
    4. This matters because everyone wants to be great but not everyone is . The reason this matters is because if your great you will be able to gain more opportunities rather than not being great and not have good opportunities . For example if your great in academics and in school you be able to be accepted in colleges . If you are accepted in a college and pass you will get a job then you will get money . That is why I think its good to be great because the you will be able to get all those advantages in life .

  21. 1. done

    2. Good is being average and performing to the limit. Greater is performing better than good or past your limits. I never thought about this to myself before.

    3. I want to become the best video game maker. I want to be the best video game designer because I want people to play my games. I want them to know that I can be the best video game designer. If I become the best video game designer I can work with the best video game makers too. I want to reach my dreams when I design video games.

    4. Being good is average and being great is going past my limits. Scoring good is getting an A and scoring great is getting an A+. It can push me further. it can give me motivation to reach the top.It can make me better than others.

  22. 2) The word good and great are different because good is when u what ever and great is when u doing really good. Yes I have considered this question before.
    3) I mean i like the way high school is going or whatever its just my actions. Most of the times i will try to do what i got to do but i just have a mouth on me. Whats i mean by have a mouth on me is when a teacher say something to me I always have a remark to it. i try to stop and change because i want to be something in life. Sometimes maybe it is good to just be quiet and do what you got to do. Not only that but at the end your not going to win. Do what you got to do at all times.
    4) This matters to me because you always have to be prepared for what your getting yourself into. sometimes you have to ask yourself what's your next milestone. Always write it down, shut it down. People always try to find a way out of something there are no shortcuts. Do what ever it takes because everyone's talking till it's time to pay. You start loosing people to gang stuff and give up your current blessing. Make the rest of your life the best of your life.

  23. 2.The difference about good and great is that great is better than good.Being great is above normal.Good is when you still have to work on it to make it better.

    3.I'm doing good but I don't want to be good.I want to be great at school.My objective is to be the best in school and in soccer.I want this because i'm not doing so good and I want to step up my game.I'm willing to but in the work.

    4.This matters because I can sacrifice my time to study and go to soccer practice.I can be able to make myself better at both school and soccer.There will be haters but I'm gonna prove them wrong.I'm going to put time and effort into this.It will be hard but i want to do it.

    2. The difference between being good and great is that good is OK but great is phenomenal. I have considered this question and I want to be a great person. I want to be great at everything I do.

    3. My high school experience is going to be defined by me being one of the best. It will be hard but I will put in all my effort. I want to be one of the best because I want to succed. I will give my 100% to everything I do and be responsible. This is why I want to be one of the best.

    I am not okay with mediocrity because to me it means not putting in effort. It means not wanting to succeed in life. And to me it means that you want to stay at the bottom and not grow. My heart is yearning for greatness because I want to be a successful person. And I will follow my parents advice by never giving up.

    4. This matters because it can help many people to give more than what they have. They need to give their best and sacrifice some things. It can change the perspecticve on how people see life. It can make them get out of their comfort zone and want to succeed. This is what matters and can help people.

    I can apply this message to my life to make it better in many ways. I will learn to give the best of me and be great at everything I do. This will help me encourage others to give their best they can. I will loose stuff to gain stuff and sacrife my current blessings to get to the next level. These are the things I can apply to my life.
