10 Keys to Personal Power

10 Keys to Personal Power
-Brian Tracy

Key 1: Clarity

"Have vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you’re going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed forever to work for others who do."

This key is saying that you should know what you want in life.You have to decide what your ambition really is and go for it.If you know what you really want in life you will know what path to follow.Many people in their life don't know what they really want and simply go through a path that will lead them to something they don't really want.This can lead you to being unhappy in your life because you well end up working or doing something that is not your goal."There are few things more powerful than a life lived with passionate clarity."This quote tells you that you should living your life with clarity can only be replaced by few things.You should try to live your life with clarity and know what you want.




Key 2: Competence"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."
This quote tells you that if you think in victory you will most likely end up achieving your goal.If you put hard work in your mind and you commit to it you will get better every single day.





Key 3: Concentration"Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself “Is this the best use of my time?” before you start anything."

This new key is saying that everyone should use their time wisely in what their goal is.Most people in this world tend to spend more time to things that don't matter that much.Many things are not important and don't bring nothing in exchange for us,they are just a waste of time so we need to know how much time to spend on them.You need to stay concentrated in what you want in in order to get good results,like studying and getting good grades at school.For example in school,if you plan on getting into a good University and get a good career you need to focus your mind and time only to school and every of your classes,not only 1 year but all 4 years.You should concentrate in what is important and give it time,for every test, quiz, homework, and assignment."Concentration and mental toughness are the margins of victory."This quote is a great example that with concentration you will achieve victory.

Key 4: Common Sense

• Train your mind
• Think things through
• Listen to your intuition
• Learn from setbacks

This new key tell you that in life you learn from everything.You need to train your mind to be strong and to know that failure may stand in your way so you must stay strong and learn from every mistake.In life you need to use your common sense and think things right and get to the right decision.Is a way of thinking things well before putting them into action,for example is one day a student has to perform in a concert at school,he should practice his songs to be prepared for the concert.Is common sense that with practice you will get better.

Key 5: Creativity
"Except the fact that every human being is a genius. The hallmark of creativity is asking questions. The people who are most creative ask the most questions."

Everyone is smart in what they are skilled at, and trying and attempting to do something you aren’t good at is smart because they are learning what they lack. Creativity can often challenge the way things are and the way things could be. This means everyone’s thought process is smart in their own way. For the artist, a new painting is a never before imagined theory. His/her art is created by inspiration, but is still different than anything they have seen, so it can count as an invention. It takes brains to create something out of nothing. Being practical is also a form of intelligence. Consider the person clipping coupons and a person can label them poor, but they are smart due to using their resources to save money.

Key 6: Consideration

"The quality of your relationships with other people will determine your success in life."
"Develop the people skills you need to become a better communicator. Take courses in listening, speaking, etc."
"If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you’ll be the best educated person in history."

Opening your mind and your heart to new things can mean taking control of your life, and living it fully. The world is not two-dimensional and neither should a person’s perception of the world. If you seek to let in new opportunities those opportunities can open more chances of living life than opposed to never taking any opportunities. Consider your surroundings, this includes your relations, your status in the world, and they way you live life. Is this the way you want to live? How can things change this? Considering the world means opening your mind to more and opening the chance to rethink things. Some people are poison, and often times we don’t see the venom. So recounting the relations you may have, opening your mind you can note the way that some people are not what you previously assumed them to be.

Key 7: Consistency
"Dependable, steady predictable work is always superior to fast spurts of work."
Be consistent in your relationships, your family, friends, your boss, your work. Be the person that people can depend upon. That if you say you’ll do something you do it.."

Being consistent means being reliable. This factor can get you promotions in work and can get you further ahead and build stronger relations with those you know. Work must be continuous to progress, nothing became of something started, and not repeated and completed. Often being consistent can seem challenging due to outside obstacles constantly changing your path, but remaining and staying means moving forward. In a game for example, when you play and try to achieve the objectives, you can pass many levels and move onward, but if you continue to mess up on a particular round then the game doesn't continue to level up. To move forward in life, you must continue to push forward and try your best.

Key 8: Commitment"No success is possible without commitment. The ability to commit yourself whole heartily is the basis of achieving all success."
"Become totally absorbed in your work. Be totally committed."

Being committed to the work you are doing means giving your entire devotion and focus on the goal. Scientist devote their lives to research and this research is what drives their passion for doing what they do. This kind of focus should be applied to anything an individual seeks to accomplish and their accomplishment will seem to be accomplished much faster than expected. Practice makes permanent, this practice can forever become a habit and a way of life fr the individual that is doing what they are supposed to do.



Key 9: Courage
"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason for failure in life."

It is better to fail at something than succeed immediately. Failure means practice and effort and hoping for success. Don’t be afraid to fail. Failure results in experience and lessons learned. In a video game, when you fail a mission or level, the character most often gains experience points. The character and you the player both learn from the obstacles, you learn strategy and tactics to redo what you did strong, and reflect on improving your weaknesses. This leads to success. Successful people have failed many times, until achieving success. The harder the fight, the sweeter the triumph. Don’t shy away from losing, welcome losing and learning.

Key 10: Confidence
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again ."
Confidence is from within. A person can call you handsome/beautiful multiple times and not affect the listener. The listener chooses what to listen to and how it will affect them. Confidence is believing in yourself, regardless of what others believe.I have confidence in playing fifa, even when I play online I feel like I can beat everybody. I practice so often, and play so much, I'm not afraid to loose. I have confidence that I can do what I have practiced doing. It is braver to face up to your fear of shyness, then to back down. Know what you can do and believe in yourself. The only one that can give a person confidence is themselves.

Electric Vehicles

Innovation of Electric Vehicles

An electric car is powered by an electric motor instead of a gasoline engine. The electric motor gets energy from a controller, which regulates the amount of power based on the driver’s use of an accelerator pedal. The electric car uses energy stored in its rechargeable batteries, which are recharged by common household electricity.In one trip to the gas station, you can pump 330 kilowatt-hours of energy into a tank commonly holding 10 or more gallons. It would take several days to get the same amount of energy from household electric current. Fortunately, it takes hours and not days to recharge an electric car, because it's much more efficient.Charging up at home means never going to a gas station and electric cars require almost none of the maintenance, like oil changes and emissions checks, that internal combustion cars require.In my opinion electric vehicles are less harmful for the environment than a hybrid car,but electric vehicles have their problems to.Electric vehicles take much more time charging than just 5 minutes in the gas station,besides it requires a lot of energy to charge an electric car.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

-Stephen R. Covey

Habit 1. Be Proactive

"Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all the other habits and that's why it comes first. It says, "I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. I'm responsible for my own happiness or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."

This habit is very important,being proactive is the key for being successful.When you are proactive you are always working in what you want to become in life and when you work hard you see good results.People that aren't proactive don't do much for themselves or for what they want to accomplish,they just leave everything for the last minute.In our lifes we decide where and what we want to do,therefore we need to be proactive and work on our goals in life.While being proactive you are a prepared person for important things you might have,like a job interview or applying for a school.You will work in your projects way early to have everything in order and not at the last minute and being at a rush.One of the most important things you choose is what you say. Your language is a good indicator of how you see yourself. A proactive person uses proactive language I can, I will, I prefer, etc. A reactive person uses reactive language I can't, I have to, if only. Reactive people believe they are not responsible for what they say and do they have no choice.

Habit 2. Begin with the End of Mind
"Control your own destiny or someone else will." (Jack Welch)

This habit is more like having a plan or a goal in mind.Beginning with the end in mind is like seeing yourself at where you want to end.For example when a teacher or your parent tells you what you want to become in life,what you answer is what you will like to be obviously.Concluding that you will need to figure out the steps you will need to achieve in order to accomplish your goal. This habit is a very helpful habit because it will help you keep your life organized,your mind will already know what way to choose.This will help also to have control with your destiny,doing whatever it takes to end where you want to.Think about the result of the end,all the hard work you did will pay of at the end.You have a goal,place,or thing that you want to achieve so just think about how good you will feel when you reach it and be the best of you.

Habit 3.Put First Things First
"Organize and execute around priorities."
This new habit is very important because in life you need to give the priority to the things that are more important.Most of the time we tend to spend more time in other things that we know are not that important for us or just don't give nothis in exchange for us.We need to learn to spend more time on things that we know are important and will have beneficial results.For example if in school you have a big test coming up and you are not that prepared to get a good result.You will need to give time in your day to study and prepare for that test and not getting distracted with other things that are not important or that just can be done another time.Most of the time these days students tend to be more time on their cellphones,playing video games,or  watching t.v.In a result for that,a lot of time is wasted in things that are distraction than things that are really important.



Habit 4: Think Win-Win

"Think win-win or no deal."

This habit it's more like a motivational habit,it explains that you should always think in winning.Many times a lot people accept defeat even when they haven't performed yet.It can be by any thing fear,lack of confidence,unprepared,etc.There can be many ways why people think in defeat first instead of winning.For example if a football player has a very important game but he knows the rival team,he might think that the opposite team is better that his team,but that's only a state of mind.If you think in defeat first that's the result you might get,but if you strive to a victory you will gain confidence for you and your team.That's all you need to be mentally prepare before something really important,be mentally secure that you will perform well.

Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood
"Diagnose before you prescribe."

This habit is telling that you should understand a problem that you might have first.In life you will face a problem that you won't be able to understand and to solve,to solve it you must first seek for help and understand the problem.We need to understand the problem we are facing first in order to be able to solve it and to help us in the future with future problems.For example if one day you have a test coming up,you need to study what the problems might be.You need to study the topics that you have being learning in class because that is what the test is going to be about.That is the solution for you to understand problems first to know how to solve them and then face them.This also leads to being prepared and not wanting to understand the problem on the last minute,you need to be anticipated and analyze the problem way before the test.

Habit 6: Synergize"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)"

This new habit is more like process of working in team.Is way of resolving a problem with other people,you need to be open minded and to understand everyone's point of view.Everyone can help in solving the problem that they might be facing,anyone can help by sharing their own personal experiences that relate to the problem itself.For example if you have a presentation at school and you get assigned a team to present with.If at the day of the presentation one of the team members doesn't appear all the team will have to cover his or her place.All team members will have to cooperate and explain the part that is missing.At the end the whole is more important than steps that were needed to take."You will also learn from these people and maybe you will add it into your life."This quote is telling you how each one of us can do things that others may not but if we work together and combine them it will turn out to be better. I can incorporate this habit into my life because I will work with others, have more energy/enthusiasm, be open minded and other things that will make be become a better person and having a bright future.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
Four Dimensions of Self-Renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional

This new and final habit is telling that you should practice and be prepared before acting.In your life you need to prepare yourself for whatever is it that you want to accomplish.It takes hours of hard work to be successful,that is the key to achieve everything.If you prepare well before performing anything then you're chances of success are going to be higher because you are going to be prepared."If I had four hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend the first two hours sharpening the axe"This quote is from Abraham Lincoln,this quote is a good example of how to really succeed.No matter what...rigorous preparation is the key for success.You can sharpen the saw physical or mentally also. Spiritual example can be you studying your religion so you can be at peace with God. Another way to sharpen the saw socially and emotionally can be by helping out other so your emotions and their emotions are at peace. Theses examples are great because it shows you how to use them in the real world.

Reflection:
For the past month in this class we've been learning about the "7 Habits of Highly Effective People".This 7 habits have thought me different things to succeed in life,each of the 7 habits has a different advice that can help anyone to be a effective people.As I went through to each of this habits I have given some examples in how to take in action that habit.I have learned so much of these habits that know I know how and when to use them efficiently to make me a highly effective people.I hope these habits can be beneficial to others students in this class as they were for me.  

Importance of Setting Goals

Importance of Setting Goals

In life planning your goals is a very important thing to do.You want to plan what you want for your future and be decided.You don't want to make decisions in the last minute and do the first thing that come in front of you.For example your college,you need to decide with anticipation what college you want to go to because not all school have the same majors.You need to plan and investigate where is the major that you want and what schools offer you it.Another thing while making plans is that you should make several plans in life,not being satisfied only with one because sometimes things don't happen that way you want,therefore you should have a other plans in mind that will help you decide what to do.People that plan their goals are more organized and will help them succeed because they will be ready in what decisions make in their lives.

Six rules to make people like you

1.Become genuinely interested in other people. 
If you become genuinely interested in other people you will be welcome at any place. I strongly agree with this quote by Dale Carnegie because when I meet new people, I have a strong interest and curiosity in learning more about them. You would make more friends in month of being interested in people than in a year of someone being interested in you. The only way to make quality, lasting friendships is to learn to be genuinely interested in them and their interests. Being interested in new people is opening yourself new doors because everyone is different,so you get to know many different things that you have never learned.During that you can gain a really good friendship that  brings you a lot of benefits to."You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.”I will apply this new rule to my life by being more open to other people,being more interested in other people instead of my trying to get them interested in me.

2.Smile
Smiling is contagious. So even if you aren't happy and someone smiles at you, you have to be pretty pessimistic to not smile back. And if you are happy and you smile at someone, then you can be pretty sure that they will smile back at you. It is critical that you are able to smile even when you don't feel like it if you want people to like you. You don't have to have a smile on your face always but make sure you're approachable. You may know someone who smiles all the time or a lot and chances are you enjoy seeing or talking to them. That is the impact of a smile. Which is why everyone should smile.If the whole world would smile everyday,the world would be a much better place because no one would be with time to have a sad expression on their face."The greatest self is a peaceful smile, that always sees the world smiling back."I will apply this new rule to my life by smiling more so that I can have better days and getting other people to smile to.

3.Remember Names
Remembering someone's names is very important,if you get to know someone you really are thankful to know,you need to remember their name.Remembering someone's name is a proof to them that you really remember them or you paid attention to the time when you knew each other.If you remember names, you will sooner start making impact on people as they will see you as the person that always greets them by their name.You will get a better friend relationship with that person,and the trust between both of you will increase do to the interest you gave in the other person."Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names."I will apply this new rule to my life by trying to remember everyone's name to bond a stronger friend relationship.

4.Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.
It is important to listen to others because you need to pay attention to them and what they are saying.When you pay attention to someone they feel more confident in talking with you because they will notice that you pay attention to them.Some people don't listen or pay attention to others and that makes them lose confidence in talking to you because they will notice that you don't pay attention to them or get easily distracted while having a conversation.Being a good listener can help people to be more open in talking to others because they will get confidence in talking and expressing themselves with other people.This can bring a higher self esteem to many people,they will enjoy talking to more people and knowing new persons.If you listen you can be the person people have an ear to always hear their ramblings which is something everyone needs in life."Being a good listener is absolutely critical to being a good leader; you have to listen to the people who are on the front line".I will apply this new rule to my life by listening more people and really pay attention to them and not making me see as if I were paying attention but thinking in something else.

5. Talk in terms of the other man's interest.
When talking to someone else,you need to talk not only about things about yourself but also about the other person's topics.If you talk with someone of what he or she likes,you will get to know more about that person.You can also gain knowledge about new things and topics you discuss with different people.See what others like and have a conversation about that. It shows manners and makes you look intelligent because of the level of interest you have.If you never talk about others interest then later they become the same as you and just talk about themselves. Having an ability like that will help in the long run. It will make people want to talk to you, because you are very rational.When you about others interest you can get ideas from others and make your own idea. This will make a very successful person with a lot of knowledge."The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life."I will apply this new way to my life by being more into interests other people may have,I should be willing to see every one's own interests.


6.Make the other person feel important--and do it sincerely.

The final rule to make people like you is presented here. The rule is to make other people feel important and do it sincerely. I agree with this method of making people like you because it is done sincerely. If you do anything sincerely you will do it well. Doing things with sincerity makes people think you are driven and motivated. It is important that you think of it in such a way. Making someone feel important is the key to having them enjoy your company which is what you want. You want someone to feel important. You cannot do this without being sincere. Basketball Coach John Wooden said "Making someone feel important is the key to their heart." I wholesomely agree with this statement as this is what this rule is about. Making someone feel important. So In conclusion you must be able to be sincere to make someone feel important.

Reflection:These six new rules that I learned in this class have giving me a new perspective of things.It showed me many ways to have a good conversation with other people and to make the other person feel important.Each rule show how to make more people like you,this means that the people you interact with will have a good impact and will try to be more like you.Making the other person more important and confident while talking to you.It is very important to always listen to the other person even though you don't like the topic because you can always learn new things from different people.It is important to apply these rules in your life to make more people like you.It is genuinely interesting that these simple, yet complicated rules can make people like you. It is not hard to apply them and use them but it is hard to have the heart to attempt to application them into your social life. It would be great if you can just apply these life rules without a hitch but there is effort you must put forward towards it. Which is immensely true in this scenario. That is why I think it is important to follow these 6 ways of making people like you, it will help you later in life.

The Six Attitudes of High Achievers

The Six Attitudes of High Achievers 

John R. Noe

1.High Achievers Make no small plans:Plan BIG

In life you need to plan yourself a goal to achieve.When you plan a goal is better to plan a big goal,not planning small goals because is not the best you can do.You need to give your best and the goal you want with hard and dedication you will achieve it.Even is you not get the goal you want,you will still be very on top,you will have more opportunities.Is better to plan big goal in your life than planning small because you will set your mind a big challenge,this will help you to be more stronger in any other challenge or obstacle you come in front with during your life.This attitude has a great quote that everyone knows or everyone should know which is "Point to the moon,even if you miss you'll be in the stars."This quote relates to this attitude because even if you don't achieve the plan you wanted,you will still be very high as a person."Meticulous planning will enable everything a man does to appear spontaneous."I will apply this new attitude to my life by making my plans big,not planning small because that will not give me same results as planning big
 

2.High Achievers Do what they fear
Doing what other people fear will bring you no limits in accomplishing other things.When you do what other people fear will make you like a leader,you will demonstrate other people that nothing is impossible and that they need to try it to.You will try to encourage them to not be afraid of doing what they want,it might be difficult and maybe that's why they are afraid of doing things but they need to see that nothing is impossible.Also while doing what others are afraid of will make a braver person,you will face new things that will help you and be beneficial for you in your future.This is a great example to know that you can fight for what you want,challenge yourself to accomplish great things and don't let fear kill your dreams.."“Today i will do what others won't so tomorrow i can do what others can't.''I will apply this new attitude to my life by not letting fear stop what I want,even though people will think that is to much,I will still try to.


3.High achievers are willing to prepare.
Being a high achiever is a long way of preparing yourself.If you want to achieve great things in your life you will need to learn to prepare yourself.Making things the right way don't prepare one night before the due date,you need to give yourself sometime to prepare and do things the best you can to make sure you will end up doing a good job.Being prepared is a very important quality you should need to apply to yourself every day,preparedness will make you achieve your goals.For example if one day you have a job interview that is really important for you because you really want that job,you need to prepare yourself way before the interview.You will need to know what to say and prepare your resume,also with some letters of recommendation you can get from other places where you've work before.All that is being prepared to make sure you are ready for that job interview."Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard and sacrifice, and, above all, don't let anyone limit your dreams."I will apply this new way to my life by always giving myself some time to prepar,doing things the last minute don't end up with good results.



4.High achievers are willing to risk failure



In life you have to know that failure at some point will stand in your way.To grow even more in what you want will be a tough way,once you fail you may want to stop,but that will make you even stronger.You have to learn as much as you can from every failure,that will make you gain knowledge to know what not to do in your future.Once you fail you always need to keep moving,you don't what to let a failure stop you.You need to have ambition for what you want and know that nothing will stop you,you need to sacrifice in order to achieve what you want.That is what will make you stronger and will help make you succeed.





5.High Achievers are teachable.

Being a teachable person is a way of being a high achiever.You might need to help others in every way you can,that will make you a better person.You are not afraid of asking and learning new things everyday,you give time to yourself to understand everything you want to learn.Being a teachable person means to be a person who can answer questions to people that may need help.Teaching others what you know to help people.Being a teachable person is a long way of not being afraid of learning and not giving up with things you don't understand.All this can be taught to someone who reaches you for help,all you gain to be a teachable person can be taught to someone else in order for them to be a teachable person to.“What I believe is that all clear-minded people should remain two things throughout their lifetimes: Curious and teachable.”I will apply this new way to my life by trying to help and teach people what I know that might help them to understand something that may need help with.


6.High Achievers have heart.
Having heart in everything you do is something high achievers do.People with heart always care about others and help others.A high achiever with heart always puts heart to everything he does,in school,at work,or even at home.Having heart in your everyday is to always do the best you can,try to be an example for others,give out the best image you can about yourself.If you give heart in everything and give a good example to others,you will make others do as same as you.Therefor,more people in this world will be as good as a high achiever that puts its heart to everything they do.Also one important thing a high achiever does is to have heart with it's self,love their selve the way they are and treat others just the way they want to be treated."The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart."I will apply this new way to my life by from now on,putting my heart in everything I do,treat others as I want to be treated,and to put more heart in what I love.
