“The best way to predict your future is to create it”

-Charles Ketterer

Reflection:

This quote is saying that if you visualize what you want to do in the near future and start trying your best to achieve them you will be the way you want to be and your future will be the way you want it to be. An example is if you want to be a doctor in the future a way to start creating your future is to get good grades and go to a medical school to start studying to be the doctor you want to be. A bad example of this quote is if you keep saying that you want to be rich and start visualizing yourself rich but don't work hard at all then you won't be creating your future.

“Ask yourself is it right or wrong to act accordingly.”

-Otto Graham Jr.

Reflection:

I think that this quote means to think before you act because you don't act accordingly a lot of stuff can happen to you like getting arrested for not acting appropriately or even going to jail because of what you did.

A good thing that can happen to you if you act accordingly is that you can be complemented or given something.
