Mission Statement

How I have grown into the 4 human tools is I have improved on my self awareness.

When I was a Freshman I barely had any, Junior year it started to improve and has gotten so

much better. Having a self introspection about the stuff I have done and could have done better

had improved tremendously, No more hiding from my mistakes I own up to them and take full

responsibility for them. My imagination has always been with me, though it has improved too.

The little voice in my head telling me what is right and wrong has been with me since I was

little, but the more stuff I have learned as I have gotten older has made me question a lot of

things. New information comes to me and with that new information I can choose if it is right or

wrong, though there will be times in which I deeply question it. My consciousness is an area I

need to work on, sometimes it will hold me back. It has gotten better but sometimes it will hold

me back at the wrong time and I do push through it, but there will be times in which I listen to it.

I definitely will need to work on this area more because I can't be held back by my own mind

since it is my mind. I understand there will be sometimes in which my consciousness does win,

but I need to make those wins slowly decrease. For independent will I have definitely seen the

new choices I have to make for myself, especially since next year I will be 18. Yes, I have not

made the greatest choices but all that matters is I learn from it and not just ignore what happened.

Though I can say I have made more good choices than bad choices. My goals for Senior year is

to get A’s and B’s once again, but more A’s than B’s. A big goal I have is to do well in AP

Chemistry such as a B or above. My next goal is to get seen by more colleges for soccer. How I

will accomplish my academic goals is to study a lot more but even more efficiently, such as

learning new study tactics. As well as not getting Senioritis I heard that affects a ton of students,

so I am going to need to prevent that such as using motivation or rewards. Such as having a

candy bar at the end of every month for doing well in my academics. For soccer I will need to

work on my fitness even more, such as my fitness level. In college sports I have heard there are a

ton of fitness tests, so in preparation for those I need to get better in my fitness and eat better as

well. Not go on such a strict diet since I should enjoy my fast metabolism for as long as I can

before adulthood hits me.
