    2. The quote says do what you love and you will most likely be successful. The video says that you have to make progress. They both talk about being happy at the end of those process's.

    3. They are similar and different in a couple ways. They both say at the end you will be happy if you do the things they say. The quote says if you do what you love you will be happy. The video says if you make progress and grow, at the end you will be happy. You can see the difference from that as well.

    4. The messages mean to me if you something you don't like, you will never be happy. You have to enjoy your life and your career. It also says you must grow when doing the things you love. You must make progress and become better than you were the day before. After doing those things you will be successful and grow.

    5. These messages matter because people do a lot of things they don't like. They must enjoy what they do and they will be successful. They might be failing because they don't like it and might not be motivated enough to succeed. They also don't make progress and stay the same everywhere. If they stay at the same level everyday they won't go anywhere in their lives.

    I can apply this to my life to make it better by doing what I love. If I know I don't like it, I won't strive for it. I won't let anybody make me do something. When I am doing what I love, I will make sure I make progress in what I'm doing. I will grow in a positive way.

    1) Completed

    2) In the video, the speakers motivated us to never give up on our dreams, no matter what. The video told us that in order to make your dreams a reality you need to put all the effort and time into it. In both the video and the quote, we learned that happiness equals success.

    3) The video and the quote are similar because they both give the same message. Both the video and the quote let people know that if we have a passion and love what we are doing, then we can become successful. The way the quote and the video portrayed the message was different. The speaker of the quote just told us that if we are happy in what we are doing then we can become successful in life. In the video, the speakers told us that if we want to make our dreams a reality, we need to put effort and time into our work, we need to have an interest into our work, and we need to never give up on our work no matter what.

    4) Based upon my experience, the message means that if I'm happy with what I am doing right now, then I can become successful in life. In order to be successful I need to put effort, passion, and time into my work. I now know that if I want to get to the goal I need to continue on, no matter what life brings me.

    5) The message matters because if people don't know how to make their dreams a reality, they can't be motivated to do anything in life. If people knew that in order to make their dreams a reality they need to put time, effort, and passion into their work, then they would be able to use this to motivate them into changing to get to success. Before we try to attempt at the impossible, we need to start doing the possible.

    I can apply this message to my life because if I know how to become successful in life, then that will help motivate me to change the ways of life now in order to benefit my future. There are always those times in my life, that I have a task that is way too difficult for me to complete, and instead of continuing to try for success, I give up and fail. Now that I know that I should never give up no matter what life brings me, I can tell myself that to help motivate me to finishing the job completely and not choosing to give up. If I don't progress in life then I will not be happy, and if I am not happy then I will not successful because happiness is the key to success.

    1. DONE

    2. Becoming successful will not make you happy. You must become happy first to become successful. You can achieve this by doing the things you love. Then you will become happy and successful.

    3. Something they both mention that makes them similar is the concept of success. The quote mentions that the key to success is happiness. However the video says that progress or an increase in performance will lead you to success. The video also mentions that if you work hard enough you will eventually become successful. You just need to apply the hard work and effort. Something that makes them differ from each other is that the video mentions before you do something, you have to see it first. You must visualize what you are working for first. The quote doesn't mention this but the video does.

    4. I think the messages mean a lot to me. A message I got from the video was that you need to make progress. Without progress, you will only make it harder on yourself to reach success. Another message I got from the video was when you increase your performance you increase everything else too. A message I got from the quote was that the key to success is happiness. You have to enjoy what you are doing to get the most out of it.

    5. I think the message matters a lot to present day society. I say this because many people question why their life is like that. They wonder how they can change it and make it better. There are some people who actually know what to do and they end up making their lives greater. However there are some people out there who don't know what to do. This is why I believe that the video and quote should be exposed to everybody out there who wants to make a change in their lives. That is why I believe the video and quote matter so much.

    There are also many ways I can apply these concepts to my life to make it better. If I increase the performance of the things I do, I will be able to increase the performance of everything else I do. Something else I can apply to my life is that if I keep working I will reach success some day. Progress is also the key to success. You won't be able to reach success if you don't make any progress. Something else that I also have to keep in mind is that happiness is the key to success. If I am able to apply these concepts to my life, I believe it will greatly impact me in many ways.

    2.The speakers from the video are motivating us to continue with our dreams no matter what happens.They also mention how having greater performance will lead to greater options.The quote is saying how happiness is what is needed to gain success.

    3.The two sources can have their similarities and their differences.One way that they are similar is by both mentioning how happiness leads to success.Basically showing this through progress for your dream.They differ by having the video mainly focus on pursuing your dream throughout circumstances.However, the quote focuses on how happiness relates to success.

    4.Based upon my experiences,this means that you should carry on with your dream until it is done.Meaning that you shouldn't give up and tell yourself that you won't quit until accomplishing the goal.It also means that showing progress is the same as having happiness piled up.If you show that your making your way through your goal then you are getting closer to your success.At the end, it also means that showing great performance can help you get better options for future references.

    5.The messages can matter for many reasons.One of the reasons is because people give up their dreams due to a small challenge throughout their progress.It also matters due to the fact that people make excuses to try and slow down their progress.The message matters because some people try to see their dream become a reality but they don't make it through.Like the speakers in the video said,"If you quit,you"ll never see it".


    Knowing how the messages matter,I know some ways I can apply it to my life.I can apply the concept to my life by perusing my dreams to the fullest.I would accomplish this with the motivation from my parents and other people around me.I would also need to stop making excuses when it comes to finishing something that are needed to be turned in.I would also apply this concept by having my performance levels high enough so that I will have the options that are the high level needed to make a greater difference on my way to my goal.

    2. Success doesn't make people happy because what's the point of being successful if you don't have something else you want. Don't quit to your dreams because with effort you will make it come true. If you do what you love and are passionate about it you will be successful.

    3. The video and quote are similar because they both talk about how you will be happy if you do the things you love. They are also similar because in one they are telling you to never quit your dreams. The video and quote are different because the quote is talking about how happiness is the key to success. While the video mentioned it to but it is also telling you to never give up and we need to be around success so we can be successful. These are some reasons I think the video and quote are similar and different.

    4. Based upon my experience, this message means many things. You should never give up on your dreams because at one point it will become true. We are all capable of being successful but we have to believe in ourselves. Before we do the impossible we have to do the possible. This is what this message means to me.

    5. This matters because it can help many people understand that if they do what they love they will be successful. They need to persevere their dreams. This can help them learn to keep their dreams alive and keep fighting. If they make progress it will also create happiness. This can help people to make a good decision in their life.

    I can apply this to my life to make it better in many ways. This message will make me not give up no matter what. It will keep me motivated to pursue my dreams and always think positive. If I am happy I will be successful because I am doing what I love. Everything is possible if I believe because I know I am capable of achieving anything I want.

  7. Watched video

    Failure is not an option. If you quit, then it will never happen. Increase your performance if you want to get more out of it.

    The video and quote are similar because they both talk about how happiness is the key to success. They differ because the video states that progress will give you happiness. The video also states that you should continue your goal until you are successful. The quote states that success is not the key to happiness. If you love what you're doing, you will be successful.

    Based upon my experiences, this means that you should never give up. Before you can do the impossible, you have to do the possible. I will read and watch stuff based on what I want to do when I grow up. For I can be knowledgeable on that subject. I will increase my performance for I can be prepared for the obstacles to come. I will continue on my goal until I am successful.

    This message matters people always give up not realizing what they are giving up. After you give up on your goal, you will never reach that goal again. You have to put blood, sweat, and tears if you want to achieve your goal. If it was easy, everybody will be successful. I can apply these concepts to my life to make it better by motivating myself if I feel down. I may not be there yet, but I am closer than I was yesterday. I will not give up. If I give up my only opportunity, then I won’t be given another chance at success.

    2. The video and quote talk about success and happiness. If you want to be successful you have to be happy first. You have to be happy to be successful.

    3. The video and quote are similar with how they talk about how to be successful and such. Happiness and hard work lead you to the successful life you want. They are different with the video specifically talking about how to move forward to success. The quote talks about the key of success is happiness. That is what the video and quote have in common.

    4. Based upon my experience the messages mean to me to always be happy with what I choose and that will lead me to my success. I will work hard and do my best to live a happy and successful life. My experience has led me to believe that the choices I make actually make me happy. Maybe in the future they will also make me successful. That would also make me very happy.

    5. The message matters, because it's important to be happy and love what you are doing to be successful. Have people who love and support around you. They will help and motivate you when you are feeling down. If you have people you don't love around you, that won't help you and you will most likely be not successful. That is an important key factor.

    I can apply them to my life to make it better by taking it to mind to always be careful with my choices. I have to make sure I will be happy with my choices. I want to be successful. I have to make sure I will be happy while at the same time being happy. I know being both is possible.

  9. 1. SEEN THE VIDEO

    2. In the video, it showed how finding a way to success means that you can't quit, but be persistent about your dream. It also showed how at some point it will happen by taking steps to make you closer to your goals. The quote shows how loving what you're doing is important for success because you can't get to a goal you don't like doing.

    3. The quote and the video are similar because they are both talking about that success can't make you happy but you have to feel and to see where your dream at. They also similar about how happiness is important with a person in life. They are different about is the quote most talk about success and happiness and the video most talk about how you feel yourself and to get start to make your dream become reality.

    4)The message in the quote means to find what you are going to want to do.Because if you do something and you don't like it you are never going to be successful.To be successful you need to love what you are doing.And the video's message is telling you to increase you performance because if you don't you will not increase.You need to increase you performance to increase everything else.And you need to go to the future and live what you want to do than come back and do what you have to do to get there.

    5) This message matters because if you are not doing something that you enjoy you won't be happy. You won't succeed if you are doing something that you are not enjoying. You have to do something that you love and you will see great results. You have to surround yourself with positive things and people. You have to make the effort to get what you really want.

    I can apply this to my life by keep believing in my dreams and what I want to do. I have to keep doing what I love and keep increasing. If I am not doing what I like to do then I won't be successful. I have to keep believing in myself that I can do it because it is something that I really do want to achieve. I have to keep focusing on what I love doing and I will succeed and achieve my dreams.

  12. 1. WATCH THE VIDEO

    2. The video was about how to get more involved into life and how to be more successful. The quote is saying that if your not satisfied with your life then your not living life the right way. This is what I think the quote and video means to me.

    3. The video is similar to the quote in various ways. Some reasons why the video is similar to the quote is because in the video it talked about how if your not happy with your life than you are not successful. This is what the quote also said but in a more brief explanation. This video differs from the quote because the video was a bit more complex in detail. On the other hand the quote wasn't very detail with their statement. This is the reason why I believe the quote and video differ.

    4. Based on my experience this means that you should strive for what you want in life. In the video it talked about how once you start something you should not stop until achieving it. Make your dream reality. Also if you tend to quit every time you start something you shall never be successful in life.

    5. This matters to me because nowadays in our society we don't really put in 120% effort onto school. This is extremely vital because we as individuals won't expand our knowledge. We also would take even longer to advance on technology. So we need to work together as a society and expand our way of thinking to better prepare ourselves for what's to come. This is why this matters to me.

    2. Video and quote talked about how you need to hang around success and work for what you want. You have to do the possible to do the impossible.

    3. They are similar because they have the same message as in to be successful you have to start and not finish until you get it. Until your dream becomes a reality. Every little thing you do whatever you want to do you are a step closer then you were before. Strive for greatness.

    4. Based upon my experience this means to finish what you start. People who don't finish what they start usually never end up successful. I also believe this means that you aren't fully dedicated till your giving more then all you got. Until you have your mindset stuck on that you really can't succeed.

    5. This message matters because I can use it as a reminder to see what I want and how I am going to get it. I can't give up on everything and hope for something to come to me. I have to chase it. And until I don't get started I am far from successful.
    I think this video really speaks to me because it shows me a simple trick into not giving up and why I shouldn't give up. If I were to give up at school or anything I've accomplished I wouldn't be as far as I am right now.

    2.The Video and the quote are mainly talking about happiness . Success is to be worked for the key to success is happiness without happiness you have a successful life . Keep on grinding never stop always show the maximum on what you are able to do . Nothing is great in life unless you do it with love and passion .
    3.The video and the quote are similar and different in many ways . The ways that the video and the quote are similar is that they both talk about success in a way . They also both talk about loving what you wanna do and I feel that the video also talks about that beacause it talks about showing that love and passion towards what you do and never ever stop showing that progress . The ways that they are different is that the video talks about mainly always giving in that 100 % in whatever you are doing never give up and the quote is talkin about mainly loving whatever you do and never show that negative attitude towards anything .
    4.Based upon these messages they mean to me that I should always keep grinding and never make exuses. Another thing that im seeing is that they mean that I should always do whatever I am doing with love and passion because if I dont im losing one of the keys to happiness. I also learned that I need to start using whatever I have in me whatever strength I have in me to be able to be successful instead of being lazy and not really doing anything with my life .
    5.This message matters in so many ways . One way that this message matters is beacuse It talks about happiness . Without happiness in my life I wont be able to succeed because happiness is one of the key concepts to making our life great . Another way that this message matters is because it talks about never stop giv8ng that 100 % in your daily life situations . I feel that if I give 100 % to everything I do mg life will be much more healthy and successful .
    I can apply these concepts to my life to make it better by never ever giving up and always be happy even through bad times

    2.The quote pretty much describes success as a byproduct of happiness. The only thing that won't cause success is unhappiness. Love what you do and the video describes the positive impact of productivity. If you want to have a larger paycheck, you must work for it first.

    3.The video and quote are similar because they describe what a positive impact toward success can be from. The major difference is what the success is from as the video talks about effort and success while the quote mainly talks about happiness. Happiness is the major part of success. If you input effort, you will be even more successful. IF you do not love what you are currently doing you aren't successful.

    4.Based on my experiences this means that without happiness, there is no point to success. Without success you will not be happy, without one of those factors you will have a chain of miserable morale and performance. The message signifies the chain amongst the 2 motives as they are an important duet. Without all this, the world would be rather ,mediocre and flavorless, there would be no point in experimenting. If you already know its a failure why try? In the end, without success and happiness, failure and depression will arise.

    5.This message is important because it shows how success and happiness go hand in hand. Without happiness and success, the co existence, no point in anything. We wouldn't even be able to adapt to such a bitter lifestyle of mediocrity.Without success, well we would never get it done, and without the aid for and byproduct of success, happiness neither would we be able to do so.In the end, success and happiness are very rather important.

    I can use this message in my everyday life by being happier, smiling more. I take jokes way too seriously that I wish to and seem to be failing when it comes to comprehending them. I have no current issues with success and failure, adding the 110% in many things I do. I have adapted to my own pace and don't break a sweat at mile 7 fortunately I have gotten much better.Furthermore, Success and happiness can be used in my everyday life.
