POST #19

Hello Scholars,

I hope this finds you all in good sprits and health. This week we are going to work on building "Our Perfect House."  We will be working with Google Slides and realtor.com. ALL of the houses we will be using will come from realtor.com.

As we focus on the work, I want you to continue to think about the person you are evolving into, the life you want to create for yourself in the future, and the type of leader you are becoming.  Continue to focus on creating a life you will be proud of now and in the future.

Please continue to make up missing assignments. We are getting close, but the game isn't over yet.  
Keep pushing forward!

Have a blessed week,

- Mr. Nunley

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO SPELLING, CAPITALIZATION AND GRAMMAR.

  1. 2. The video and quote are similar but they differ in many ways. The are similar because they both tell you to look at the future not in the past. The way the differ is because the video is about you being a warrior and not giving up. The quote is about how leadership and learning indispensable each other.

    3. You are a warrior. You have to fight and do not give up. Don't look at the past or present look at the future.

    4. I consider myself both a success achiever and a failure avoider. I say this because I achieve success on things I know how to do.. I avoid things I know I will fail or feel like I'm going to fail.

    5.When I hear the word "leader or "leadership" I think of a person that leads people. The qualities I think that are necessary is being a person that doesn't give up and a person that knows how to lead a group to do what they all want to do.

    6. In my opinion the best quality of a leader is knowing how to lead people to what they want to achieve. By this I mean that they need to know how to be a leader. They need to know what they want to achieve. They need to learn not to give up easily. This is the most important quality of a leader for me.

  2. 2. Both the video and the quote are similar because they both tell us the result we will receive if we give in. We shouldn't give in or worry about the things that are distracting us from doing the right thing. The way they both differ is that the quote only discusses about the past, present, and future. On the other hand the video only discusses about fighting back, and not giving up at tough times. That is how they are similar and different.
    3. The video basically summarizes about us not giving up. Fighting back. We shouldn't stop when we are almost there, we should keep fighting. It also talks about us activating our inner warrior. The quote is telling us not to worry about the past or present. That will only slow us down. It will make us miss the future. It also discusses that leadership and learning are two powerful things put together.
    4. I consider myself to be in the middle of this. At some points I strive to be the successful person who always gets everything done. I also tend to try to avoid failure because it always puts me down. But from my few experiences in life, failure is something we should learn from, not avoid. We shouldn't aim for failure, but we should learn from it.
    5. A leader is someone who no's what they are doing. Someone who guides someone into becoming a strong independent person. Someone who stands out. Being these qualities can make you an effective leader.
    6. I believe the most important quality a leader should have is strength. Not physical strength, but spiritual and mental strength. Having strength gets a leader through anything they are going through. It shows others that they are strong, and they shouldn't give in on things. It is one of the most effective qualities a leader should have. It stands out from the rest of them. This gives others the inability to strive to keep going because they see the strength inside of that leader.

  3. 2. The video and quote are different because the quote is saying how learning is important for your future. The video was talking about how you have to fight your way through life even though life gets tough. They are both similar because their both saying how your future matters.
    3. The video was about how you shouldn't give up, because if you give up you won't stick around for anything good to happen. You can't give up if things get rough because you have to be a warrior. The quote is about how your future matters, and you should get the right education you need.
    4. I consider myself a success achiever because if I don't do well in a test or anything I try again. Even if it gets hard I won't give up.
    5. What it takes to be an effective leader is helping out people around you. It also means to never give up and to fight for what you want.
    6. In my opinion the most important quality of a leader is just not backing down every time things go wrong. Being a leader is like being a warrior because you got to take care of your business. Also knowing what's best for everyone and fighting back because warriors and leaders fight. They fight because they know if they fight something good will come out of it. And knowing the smart thing to do is also what leaders do.

  4. 2. the quote and the video are similar because they both give out the same message, you need to change up a little and rise up and not give up. however they do both give the same message both they do differ, the video talks about to fight what is blocking your way to success and victory. You need to be able to stop being weak and fight your way through.

    3.Both video and the quote both mainly talk about how hard you need to work for the things you really want and fight, not only mentally but also in the part where you choose to do things and your decisions. You need to be able to fight the weak and be the stronger person what so ever because at the end of the day victory will still be in the other side. You need to be a warrior and defeat all the obstacles that come your way and be able to rise up to who you are and what you do.

    4.i believe i can be in between being a successful achiever and a failure avoider, and i say that because not only have i not been half my life and i don't have much experience but also because during the time i've been working i have been successful and have accomplished many things in these 14 years. I am a hard worker but i am aware that i don't like failure because that's how i was raised, failure is not an option.

    5. The word "leadership" is a strong word not only because it has the word "leader" but because it means a lot. when i hear this word i not only think about a leader but i also think about someone who has the keys of success and is able to have that ability to victory and help people out, to have that charge.

    6. In my opinion i believe that the most important quality of a leader is being positive about things and having a clear mindset of what is being done to be able to reach success.Another thing is to be able to have that ability to lead more and more people to success as well and not only think about themselves. This is all important because if you are a leader you must show you can lead someone to success and victory as well as yourself. A good leader should also be a fighter and be able to fight anything that comes their path.

  5. 2. The video and quote are similar because they both explain that you have to go for what you want. Strive for greatness in your life. Have people support you. The difference is one talks about power and how you have to fight. The other talks about look for someone who's willing to support you through it all.

    3. The video explains that you can't give up on something you want. Something that will only happen once in your lifetime. Fight for what you want . Make great decisions and don't give up . Those are the main things that will help you through out your life. They will also help you go for what you want.

    4.I consider myself as a failure avoider because i really wouldn't say that I have made a lot of success. I try and get things done so i can be successful , but i also try to avoid failure in many way. I do my work and get good grades on it but when it comes to studying and tests i'm nit so good at it.

    5.The words that first come to mind when i heard the word leader or leadership is someone who takes there responsibility seriously. Someone to be and effective leader is someone who needs to take control of what they're doing either with their life or when it comes to telling someone what they need to do.

    6. In my opinion the most important quality of being a leader is taking full responsibility in what you have to do . Have pride in other people and yourself. I believe that being a leader makes you have to put in a lot of trust in many things like getting things done. If something is hard you have to find your way and fight your way through it. Don't ever take a step backward . If you can take two steps forward and be ahead of everyone . Be a successful person

  6. 2.) The video and quote are similar because they both push you to encouragement. They both tell you not to give up and make you wanna be a better person. Also you must be a warrior no matter how hard things get you must keep pushing.
    3.)The video and quote are tying to explain that you are a human warrior that can accomplish anything. Dont ever give up and keep fighting. Fight your way through it and activate your warrior.
    4.) I always consider my self failure avoider because im always unfocused. I get things done but not always at the time there due.
    5.) The word responsible comes to my head to be a leader. I think of it this way because in order to be a leader you must have your life in order before anyone else.
    6.) In my opinion the most important quality of a leader is that you must be a role model and also responseable. You must have your mind focus. Keep your eyes on the prize. Keep fighting till you have the things you want. Believe dream and achive. be who you wanna be.

  7. 2. The quote and video are similar because instead of looking at the future that is stopping you, you should rather be making your future. You have to make a decision saying not to give up. They differ because it is time you fight back on what is backing you up.

    3. You should not back up and give in because that is going to make you a failure. If you just stop giving up and fighting back, then you can become a warrior. You can get through this if you just believe that you can.

    4. I consider myself a success achiever because right now I am doing everything that I can to make my life how I want it to be. I study hard to get the best results. I am always on task when I know that this is really important.

    5. Powerful and success describe the qualities that are absolutely necessary for someone to be an effective leader because a leader has to have a lot of experience of knowledge in order to be someone that people can look up to. Leaders are powerful because they inspire others to do the same thing they do.

    6. The most important quality of a leader is to never give up and be who they are. Showing that they whatever it takes to make it to the next level can make them look like they are ready for the real world. Without giving up makes them powerful because they are proving that they are not backing up and rather fighting back or continuing. Leaders need to have a lot of experience of achievement because without achieving, we can`t get through anything in life.

  8. 2) The video and quote are similar because both talk about how you have to fight for what you think is right and how you have to pay attention to get to your goals.

    3) The video and quotes are basically telling us that if you don't fight for whats right then how will you be successful to succeed in life.

    4) I consider myself as a success achiever because I know that if I try my best and give it my all then I will be successful through life and I know that if I'm successful then I will get to grow up to be successful person.

    5) When I hear the words leader or leadership I think of someone leading people to a right and a better path I also think of someone telling another person how to be a better person and how to make their lives better than how they are now.

    6) In my opinion I think that the most equality of being a leader is to never follow others because it might lead you to the wrong path, The reason I think this is because I know that if you be a follower than you might get to the path you didn't think you will get to and your life wouldn't go so well if you don't stop being a follower instead of a leader.

  9. 2. The video speaks more in depth about how you must fight back, and there is no way to walk nor talk yourself through it. The quote speaks more about how you must not look back at the past nor just look at the present. They both speak about making a change. That is because if you want to make a change in your life, it is obviously because something is not going right. And the only way to do this is to make a change.
    3. The video is about how one must keep fighting back. If you don['t fight back, it makes you weak. The quote spoke about the difference between one who is strong and one who is weak. The difference is when the weak have no more they quit. But someone who is strong even when they have no more to give they find a way to keep going. Lastly a main point of the video was that you cannot walk nor talk yourself through it, you must fight back. Because if you fight back, you can beat it.
    The quote was about how change is inevitable in life. This is because change is a "law" of life.So, a person changing cannot look at just the past or present. They must look at the past,present, and future to evaluate on what kind of changes are necessary. The last main point of the quote was that learning and leadership come hand in hand with each other. If you are learning you are becoming a leader.
    4. I would consider myself a failure avoider. I choose to describe myself this way because I always try my best to avoid failure. But at times I can be a success achiever. It just matters on the environment. At home I am more of a failure avoider but at school I am for sure a success achiever (depending on what class i am in).
    5. Qualities that are absolutely necessary to be an effective leader would be someone who learns from past mistakes. Whether the mistakes were made by the leader or not they must learn from past mistakes. This is because if they do not learn from past mistakes, they will just repeat past mistakes. Another quality would be the power to persuade others. Lastly I believe a leader should have the ability to get their mind across effectively. This is because a leader must be able to explain their decisions, that will make sense to the people.
    6. I think the most important quality of a leader is someone who is a good decision maker. For example, someone who will thoroughly think a decision through. They won't just make a decision just because. This is the most important quality because nobody wants to have a leader who makes stupid decisions. Or a leader who cannot back up their decision.

  10. 2) The quote and the video are similar in what they are trying to teach us. The video is telling us that you must fight through that pain because at the end of that pain is victory. The quote is telling about the past. We must look towards our future and not the past or present.

    3) In summary, the video and quote is telling us that we should look towards our future.If we can't get past forget about the past or present, we will never see the future. We must forgive and forget and learn from our mistakes. In tough times, we must fight back because victory is on the other side. The weak give up. However, the strong continue to fight through it.

    4) I consider myself a success achiever because I always try my best in everything I do. The reason I always do my best is because I have a goal in life which is to be successful. In order to be a success achiever, you must fight through the pain.

    5) The first words that come to mind when I hear the word "leader" or "leadership" is respect, responsibility, courage, and trust. I believe that if you are an effective leader you must be responsible and have trust.

    6) In my opinion, the most important quality of a leader is trust. You must trust your companions or team. Your team must also be able to trust me. Your team should be able to trust you in getting a task done. If everyone can trust one another, nothing should go wrong.

  11. 2) The video and the quote are similar because they both talk about looking beyond the impossible. You have to be able to push yourself and overcome anything. The video and the quote differ because the video talks about having to push yourself at all times when things get tough. The quote talks about how you need to start looking at the future and stop worrying about what was in the past or what is happening now,start looking forward.

    3) The video and quote in my own words means that you have to start looking forward and push yourself toward the finish point. You have to change and make a decision in order for you to move forward. In order for you to move forward you have to forget the past and let go of anything that is holding you down.

    4) I consider myself a success achiever because I've achieved things I never would've thought I could have achieved. Being able to play many sports in middle school and then getting female athlete of the year was a success.

    5) The qualities that an effective leader should have are leadership, commitment, and responsibility. In order to be a good leader you have to be a good influence and be able to lead others into a great path that will help and benefit them in the future.

    6) In my opinion the most important quality of a leader is respect. Once you respect someone, you get respect back. You have to be able to work with others no matter who the person is. Being a leader can consist of many things but respect is the main one because I feel as if respect is key.

  13. 2) The video and quote are similar because they both have the message to not give up. The video and quote differ because the quote mostly is about if you look in the past or present you will most likely miss the future. The video talks about how you need to fight whatever your going through and be a warrior and do not ever give up.
    3) The video and quote summarized in my own words is that you need to focus on what your doing now so you can do better in the future. Also if a conflict comes your way you need to fight it even if its difficult you need to fight your way through it. You also have to be a warrior and don't give up just because what your going through may be hard fight it and you will be okay.
    4) In all honesty I would consider myself a failure avoider. I consider myself this because I am always trying to do everything good and try my best and not fail. I always avoid failure because I don't like it I want to do great. I want to change that about my self and be a success achiever instead and only focus on succeeding.
    5) For a person to be a effective leader I believe they need to be loyal, honest, respectful, responsible, knowledgeable, problem solver, and many more words. They need to have these characteristics in order to people to look up to them or listen to them.
    6) In my opinion I believe the most quality for someone to be a leader is they have to be responsible. I believe this because you need to be able to take action if something bad happens or something good. Also because you need to be able to take the fault for something if you did something. being responsible is very important because you have control over your job or anything. You also have important duties and have control over a important decision.

  14. 1) The video and quote are similar because they both explain change in habits. Both are similar because they examine the future for ourselves. These two are similar because it explains the purpose of not backing down. Both differ because the quote talks about leadership and the video talks about not giving up and to keep fighting.
    2) To summarize the quote is it talks about how its okay to change because change is good in life. Also the quote talks about the learning from your mistakes and carrying on with life and take what you learned and achieve something. The video is about not giving up no matter how much you have fought or done. This video is about never accepting failure. Its also about never backing down without fighting for what you want.

    3) I find my self as a success achiever because i always ask many teachers for extra credit or if I can turn in any assignments. I also am a success achiever because I stay up late studying for a unit test and any test in general. Lastly i'm an achiever because I am always on top of my grade and working harder than ever.

    4) The words that come to mind when I hear the word leadership is work. I chose because it describes a good leader because a good leader works to make sure everyone is okay and makes sure that everything is running smoothly. A good leader also works day and night no exceptions of taking a day off.

    5) The most important quality for a leader is who shows a good example to others. Also someone who is responsible and respectful and very compassioned towards people .In my perspective I think that's my main words to explain a true leader. why I think that Is because I have a lot of structure around me to prove and teach me to be a leader ,and to always show respect no matter age, size, ethnicity ,were all human deserve respect to get it and if you can show that you will be a leader.

  16. 1.N/A
    2. The video and the quote have many similarities and differences. One difference is that the video talked about how you should not be weak, you should be strong and fight. A similarity i noticed was that both talk about going forward and not letting the past impact you.
    3. Be a warrior, keep fighting and don't give up. Don't let the past and present impact you, just worry about the future. If you fight back you can beat it.
    4. In my opinion i am a success achiever, i believe this for many reasons. First, even if i'm passing i won't be happy i want all my grades to be 'B' or 'A'. And, i'm not content with just being average
    5. When i hear the word leadership i think of many things. For example when i hear 'leader' i think of good teamwork.I think if this because if a group lacks teamwork then they won't be able to get anything done.
    6.In my opinion the most import quality that a leader could have is kindness. I believe this for many reasons. One of which is because nobody would want a leader that mistreats them or is mean to them. Also, kindness could earn you respect and respect can make your teamwork better. In conclusion,i believe kindness is the most important quality a leader could have

  17. 2.The video and quote are similar because they are both talking about change. This holds true because the quotes meaning to me says that with worry over the past or present once you overcome what your going through look at the future and what it holds for you, the video is stating that when you are at you breaking point that you must change your mindset and keep pushing through, so both put together they are both saying you must have the right mindset. They differ because the quote states that leadership and learning are key to each other but the video doesn't indicate that at all.
    3. The video and quote both have the meaning of to keep going and that knowledge and strength are key. For example in the quote it says that learning and leadership are necessary to one another and that holds true because in order to lead you must learn and push through. That can connect to the video because the video is inspiring you to be better and to push through, so in order to be a leader you must push through whatever obstacles are in your way and gain the knowledge to learn how to over come them.
    4. I'm going to be truly honest and say I'm a failure avoider. I do not have that type of confidence in myself to say I'm a successful achiever.
    5. When I think of leader I think of great and most qualified. I think this because in order to be a leader people must want to follow you. People must want someone with great expertise. That's the type of leader I would want.
    6. The most important quality in a leader is admitting there faults and listens and observes ways to get better. No one wants a leader that's to ignorant for the own good or a leader that doesn't see what's best for everyone. A good leader sticks with his group and does what's best, it may not be what everyone likes but it was best for the situation. Making hard decision is what really makes a great leader.

  18. 2)The video and the quote are similar because they both tell you that you should keep moving forward. They are different because the video mainly says that you should not give up and to keep fighting. The quote mainly says that you have to change for the future and be a leader.

    3)The video tells you to never give up no matter what you are doing and what you have done so far. It tells you to keep fighting and push through the hard work because in the end it will all be worth it. It also says that you should never accept failure and to keep trying. The quote tells you that change is the law in life and i think that means that change is necessary in life because everybody has to change. It also says that people focus to much on the past that they miss out on what is happening now and in the future.

    4) I consider myself both because I try my best to do work for school all the time. When something is to hard for me to do I still try my best and don't give up so I try to avoid failing by trying my best. I try to achieve success by doing my best.

    5) When I think of the words "leader" or "leadership" I think about being loyal, brave, respectful, honest, and wise. I think about these words because these are some characteristics a good leader has or should have. A leader should have these qualities because then he can't lead without them.

    6) In my opinion the most important quality that a leader should have is honesty. Honesty is the most important quality because if a leader is not honest then the leaders followers will not trust the leader. If the followers do not trust the leader the followers will not follow the leader anymore. If the followers do not trust and believe their leader then they will not listen to their leader. If the followers do not listen to their leader the leader will not be able to lead. This is why the leader should be very honest.

  19. 2. The quote and the video are similar because they talk about how you cant always be the same person you used to be you need to make some changes in your life. They are different because they both have a different meaning to both of em.

    3.the quote summarized says that you have the strength to not give up. Also that you have to fight for what you want your future to look like. The quote also says that you should forget about what happen in the past and to focus on the future.

    4. i consider myself as a success achiever because i always try to do my best at everything i can. I also never give up even when thing get to hard.

    5. I think of someone who knows how to get the best out of someone they are training or helping them out. I think of someone who knows how to talk to their friends and knows how to lead a group. The qualities you need to being a good leader is to not give up and you also need to know how to lead a group or team.

    6. In my opinion the best quality is to not give up every time something seems difficult. A quality of a leader is to be responsible and not get distracted easily by things that dont really matter. Leaders also are positive and never try to make you feel like you can never do something. They always try to encourage you to give it your all even if it doesnt get you to where you wanna be at least you gave it your best effort and didnt give up,
