The 12 Principles of Highly Successful Leaders

Becoming Your Best: 
The 12 Principles of Highly Successful Leaders


1.Be true to character
"Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day"--- John Wooden
what this means is to be honest to yourself. dont try to pretend to be someone else. be who you really are in front of everyone. dont be one of those people who has a different personality depending on their company. thats just being two face and condescending. in order to make true friends you have to be true yourself. unmask you and the good ones will stick around. if somebody dosent like you for your worst they dont deserve to see your best. and example of this, is if you are in a relationship with somebody that your completely different with.  you changed you style and personality for them. that isnt right at all, thats why i let them see me in my p.js and show them what there getting themselves into. if they dont like it well then thats there loss not mine.

2. use your imagination
"You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus" --- Mark Twain
when you use your imagination you open new doors. your mind runs wild and you begin to know more. you excessive your brain. you become a brain with ideas. even Einstein used his imagination and got him to know many of his theories. if it wernet for imagination many cartoons wouldnt be here. a show i like alot is spongebob and even he motivates kids to use there imagination. it you use your imagination then you daydream and set goals. America runs on ideas, thats why weve industrialized.

3. apply the power of knowledge
A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots- Marcus Garvey

knowledge is the key to all success. without it you have nothing nor anyone. knowledge is what uprises us to do much better things. take a doctor for example, their knowledge exceeds them to help humans out. its because of them that when we get ill or hurt were okay. they also use their full knowledge to figure out what we have. they take x-rays and diagnose us. knowlede also leads to greater things like the theory of relativity. not just anybody what have guessed it. Eisenstein made his research and took his year to recollect his knowlege to that point. to concentrate on the answer to that theory.
4.never give up
Never give up. Today is hard, tomorrow will be worse, but the day after tomorrow will be sunshine
- Jack Ma

never giving up is a sign of strength. having thepowerkeep on going is courage. if you fail in something dont get discouraged. not everything comes to you the first time and deserves another try. i believe in second chances and pursuing in what i want. an example of this can be in a relationship. if your partner is upset and you dont know how to fix it, you dont just give up and end it. no, you messed up and have to fix it instead of whinning. how else would it be fixed.

5. find peace and balance
"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word". Martin Luther King, Jr.
this quote means to be more peaceful and avoid anger. rancorous people dont get any where with grudge in their heart. they need to find a happy environment to acquire peace. they also need to balance their life to not call any distress. stress can cause anger and anger causes a non peaceful mood and bad conflicts. an example of peace and balance can be maintaining good grades and a boyfriend. you need to be happy with your boyfriend and have fun but at the same time, manage your time wisely to be stress free and peaceful. dont live a life fulfilled with agony but with peace to unravel. there is no need for war and more depth of friendship, just peace (Vietnam war). i use this in my life by multitasking school life with all the extracurricular activities. i admit sometimes in a melancholy mood that leads me to balled up anger, but when i surround myself with happy people i let peace come to me.

6. Live the golden rule
"We might come closer to balancing the Budget if all of us lived closer to the Commandments and the Golden Rule". Ronald Reagan
The golden rule is to treat others the way you want to be treated. what that means is if your nice to someone then theyll repay you with the same respect. if you treat somebody bad then youll get the same treatment. an example of this can be in a healthy relationship. if your partner treats you with respect and loyalty you should do the same. if they cheat on you and disrespect you i dont suggest to do the same but to end it right there and then. your actions all depend on how others will look at you or treat you. you need people as connections and as friends to slide through life. you apply this everyday when you meet the love of your life one day.


7.Build and Maintain
 "Trust is like blood pressure. It's silent, vital to good health, and if abused it can be deadly." --Frank Sonnenberg, author of Follow Your Conscience
what this means is building up strength to get somewhere. you do not just build, but also maintain to stay there. a perfect example is being in a varsity sports team. you made tryouts an they put you in varsity. all of those times you practiced you were building up. now the point of maintaining is to not go down/ slack off. some people have a tendency to do that because they have gotten to far. but little do those people that they can be dropped to jv and replaced by someone who is thriving. its not about being perfect, but about being a better you. dont get comfortable where your are, get better and be more successful.

8.Quick to Listen slow to wrath
"Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence." - Robert Frost
I like this quote because its something i should learn to do. i acknowledge the fact that at times i become stubborn and block everyone out. when i am upset i do not like to listen but ignore. i act in the moment with wrath and later come to see ive messed up. so when i know im about to say something bad i just stay quite (at times) and breathe. this example goes perfectly into a relationship when one partner messes up. when your partner does something hurtful, i rather stay quite or as he used to say "the silent treatment" because i would not like to hurt them like he hurt me. but i know see that, that is not a solution but instead i should learn how to talk in the moment. just how i saw my mistake and found a solution, he should know i was trying not to react in the moment. we all have our flaws and mistakes, and sometimes should be second chances if wanted.

9.Lead with vision
"Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others" --Jonathan Swift
leading with vision is being a good leader. they always know what they get themselves into. they know the consequences and plan it out. they do whats best for everyone. they are well aware of whats going on and continue to thrive. they want better for everyone and want to help. an example of this is me being the president of my club. i have plans and know what well be doing in my club. i have a vision and hope to soon accomplish it with them all. to do good and choose the right.


10.Manage with a plan
"Plans are nothing; planning is everything" --Dwight D. Eisenhower
Planning is everything and maintain goals. planning is what gets success. you cant just wing a project but plot and plan your points. you need to think ahead and figure out your goal. i plan ahead before going out with my friends so we can get to do what we want ahead of time. if we were to just go out we wouldnt know what to do. we would spend time to plan and wont end up having time to hang out long enough. last year this happened when i hung out with my friend and we wanted to go eat. we went to boulevards and saw it was really hectic so we left. it took 2 hours to find where to eat and ended up eating at the habbit.


11.Do what matters the most
"The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters"-- Audrey Hepburn
When doing something you have to check who it affects. when doing right you have to make good decisions. an example of this can be, would you rather go shopping or volunteer at a hospital. do what matters most and volunteer at the hospital. when doing something think of happiness over money. that is perfect example in choosing a career. when doing something think of your family as well. your family should be a priority over anything else. an example of this can be to prioritize school over going out with friends. if you cant handle time nor a boyfriend, then do what matters most.

12.Be accountable
"I repeat... that all power is a trust; that we are accountable for its exercise; that from the people and for the people all springs, and all must exist" ---Benjamin Disraeli
being accountable is being in charge. you make decisions and you with hold the power. being accountable is also being humble and taking the blame. you don't put the blame on someone else but be responsible. an example of this can be in a relationship.your partner cant be constantly be blaming you there mad. the person is mad because the other partner is doing something to aggravate them. they know there at fault but switch the tables on them. another reason can be that a partner found something bad in the other partners phone. the partner cant mad that the partner was looking through the phone, there turning the tables. people have to be accountable for there own actions.

10 tips for being more truthful

10 tips for being more truthful

Barbara A. Lewis

1. Make a commitment to tell the truth
"Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth".    Buddha
the truth will always end up coming out. ignorance isnt bliss and lying isnt a rule. id rather feel pain and know the truth rather than living in oblivion. telling lies will get you no where in a relationship and just dig you in a big hole of abyss. id rather just live with everything out the table being myself. telling lies will also get you in trouble in a career, for instance you want to be a doctor but cheat on the tests well your just lying to yourself and those around you. rather be you and dont lie. honestly im brutally honest and dont need a lie to make things better. if people do not agree with my being then they can go screw themselves :)


2. Tell someone about your commitment
"Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work."    Vince Lombardi
Yes it is normal to make a commitment to yourself but how will people know your change if they dont know your working on it. An example can be in relationships. You tell people about committing to your partner. your not rubbing it but your letting people know your taken. you dont want fly's on your food right? you want to prevent that by letting the flies know you have a fly swap-er. Dont just let people know your committed but also your achievements. keep people posted and knowing.


3.Think before you give a dishonest answer, explanation, sarcasm, or reason.
"We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter". --- Denis Diderot
What this means in other words is think before you say something. sometimes when im furious i react so id prefer to be quiet. somebody's mouth can get them in a lot of trouble.  id prefer to get in trouble then to lie and get even more in trouble. i dont like to put excuses either because if other people can do it then so can i. some people can really just piss me off and id rather stay away from them. better to stay away from drama than to be with them. but for some odd reason drama just seems to find me and haunt me. i can literally be doing nothing wrong and id probably get in trouble. ehy be in a world of pitiful lies when you can just the truth even though you know itll hurt somebody.

4. Be careful of when and how you use exaggeration, sarcasm, or irony
"Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment"
 -Horace
This quotes that we should be serious when the time is right. an example can be when someone is telling you how you feel and you begin the answer in sarcasm. how will someone know your serious if you do not answer seriously. irony isn't a good way to show how you feel either. you may confuse the people around you into thinking something else. oh and i highly dislike dramatic people. they exaggerate for attention and that just annoys me. exaggerating may lead to a bigger problem, for instance if you are hurt and exaggerate the pain then they'll diagnose you with something worse then what you actually have. people just need to be straight forward with their thoughts. its not good to beat around the bush or to keep sending subliminal messages. just be honest and be upward.



5.Be careful not to twist the truth or leave out part of it.
"Nothing is so difficult as not deceiving oneself"            
 - Ludwig Wittgenstein
People usually say lies or partial truth to save themselves. that is definitely not fair to others, and it can ruin somebody's dreams. an example of this can be cheating. teacher: " hey do you copy bob's homework?". student: " No i didnt" while he thinks to himself he didn't cheat of bob but cheated off Jim. Partial truth is being deceitful to others. Another example can be in a relationship. if there is a dysfunctional couple that is not working out they have to let go. guy: "i just want to know if you want  to be with me?". girl: "yes i care for you and like to be around you" while under her breathe she says "as a friend...".  its not fair to the boy to be lied to, and needs someone who actually does care for him.


6.Don't indulge in little white lies
"When we tell little white lies, we become progressively color-blind. It is better to remain silent than to mislead"
-James E. Faust
white lies to me mean nothing. i highly dislike sugar coatings because it has no truth. i rather tell my friend the truth even though it might hurt that person rather than it coming back to hurt them more later. it will most likely sting in the moment but at least your being truthful. Before i begin a relationship i ask nothing from them but to be truthful. if they do not like me to please tell me instead of cheating. or even worse to continue dating me though there is no connection. or with my friends, ill tell them the straight truth when they ask me for advice. sometimes they dont like it but im being a good friend by not lying. ask me for advice and in exchange ill tell you what you need to hear.


7.Watch out for silent lies
“Truth can remain silent. Lies must be spoken.”
― Mason Cooley
Lies can be deceiving in a manner that may hurt someone. sometimes, someone can lie and you may not know it. its not good to be a good liar and people shouldn't be taught that. an example of a silent lie can be a relationship. A relationship can look healthy from the outside and different from the inside. They can post pictures of themselves being lovey dovey, but in person its completely different. they constantly argue and lie about still loving each other. people do not know that which makes it a silent lie. i dont understand why people arent straight forward with themselves and others. they need to tell the truth and embrace it. why live a lie thatll end up backfiring you.



8.When you catch yourself lying, throw your mouth into reverse.
“I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
what this means is when you in a situation, dont lie. dont try to get yourself out of it because it'll make it worse. so when you begin to lie stop yourself. a lie would only make things worse than what they probably are. if someone ever feels the need to lie, that already says a lot. that means they messed up and they'll do anything in their power to cover it up. in a relationship, itll just make things worst. if you feel the need to lie then it isnt working out. cheating and lying arent situations but reasons to break up. Things come apart so easily when they have been held together with lies.


9.Talk to yourself
“Self-talk reflects your innermost feelings.”
― Asa Don Brown
When your talking to yourself it also means to pep talk to yourself. you are the only person you can trust. you are also your greatest motivator, and can thrive alone. in the end, you are the only person who can make yourself feel better. nobody can transmit something to you, because it all varies on you. an example can be during a breakup. you are the only person that can stop crying and take a stand. you know you'll get over it but its a matter of time your mind lets you. we all have potential to do things but do we usually do it. im not trying to aim for perfect, im just trying to aim for a better me.


10.Treat yourself when you tell the truth.
"Outsourcing is inevitable, and I don't think it's necessarily treating people like things".
- Stephen Covey

when you tell the truth the feeling is better. you feel as if your light. when you lie you feel as if there is a heavy weight on your shoulders. treat yourself if you did the right thing and told the truth. for example, if you told the truth to your friend. she will thank you for the brutal truth and youll be okay. you did what you can and treat yourself. take yourself to the spa or dinner. your being humane by being truthful. treat yourself or give yourself a pat in the back.

"How the internet works"

"How the internet works"

To understand the Internet, it helps to look at it as a system with two main components. The first of those components is hardware. That includes everything from the cables that carry terabits of information every second to the computer sitting in front of you. my favorite part was the cesars coding. I've used it a lot since i watch the video on it on khan academy. iv'e been leaving little hints to my crush with the doing. i know he wont figure it out, but its nice to put it out there without anyone knowing.These elements are connections. Some are end points -- the computer, smartphone or other device you're using to read this may count as one. We call those end points clients. Machines that store the information we seek on the Internet are servers. Other elements are nodes which serve as a connecting point along a route of traffic. And then there are the transmission lines which can be physical, as in the case of cables and fiber optics, or they can be wireless signals from satellites, cell phone or 4G towers, or radios.
