"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy.                  I was trying to do what was right."

                         ~Dean Smith

   Its not about winning at life in the end. Its about way you lived life and the way you succeeded into living. Your ways of choosing good decisions for not just the benefit of yourself but for others as well. Your not just competing fro your ultimate goal at life but your doing truthfully. Dean Smith ambitions weren't about winning every single game he played, he wasn't trying to build up a legacy he was just choosing to push his players to be the best they can be. And he was doing the right thing by not just thinking about himself. He was just doing the right thing by not getting mad at his players for losing, and not cheating in any games. He saw every player by who they were. He wasn't judgmental and he encouraged every one of them to be the best person, not player but person they can be. He taught him the values of life. Which is why he is so respected. 

             "It's not about how to achieve your dreams.                                 It's about how to lead your life.                                        If you lead your life the RIGHT WAY,                                  the karma (destiny, fortune, good luck)                                           will take care of itself.                                                     The dreams will come to you."

                               ~Dr. Randy Pausch

   When you lead your life the right way the god things will come to you. When you do good you feel good. And when you do good that good karma will come back to you. Your actions speak more than your words as they say, and it is true. Its not just about your words, you saying that your gonna do whatever it takes to accomplish your dream job. Its what you do, your steps into your accomplishment. For example you cant just say one day your going to be a doctor and boom the next  day you wake up has one. That's not how it works. You got to have a lot of patience. You need to work for it. You need to take all the necessary and mandatory procedures it takes to be a doctor. Finish high school, go to a medical school, have a residency, taking examinations, getting your certificate to be certified as one. It may be hard but if you work hard and you lead yourself through the process the right way with determination and honesty then sooner or later your good karma will reward you with you earning your dream job. 

"Of all the work that is done or that can be done for our country, the greatest is that of educating the BODY, the MIND, and above all the CHARACTER, giving is spiritual and more training to those who in a few years are themselves to decide the destinies of the nation."
                           ~Theodore Roosevelt

   It is important to take care of our own self to maintain a good self esteem. You would give your country a good rating and overall view has an example of how you should behave and do to maintain a good quality of life. Basically you would be an example to others. To be a good example to yourself first you need to educate your body well. Meaning being cautious of what you do and put in to your body. Eating good and exercising are the way to go. Then comes your mid, your way of thinking. Relax once and a while because too much stress or any type of stress isn't good for you. Think positively and always look at the good sides of things. Don't think negatively. This will help give you a good character when your always on the up side of the things or people around you. 

                    "Take responsibility for YOUR OWN                                       body, mind, and spirit, for your own                                physical, mental, and spiritual well-being."
                              ~ Mr. C. S. Haymore

   You need to take care of yourself, not others but your own self. To take care of your well being you first need to watch out for your body. Because remember you only have one. You got to avoid doing any damage to your body because you never know once the damage has occured it can be irreversible. You want to be able to live a long nice happy life with no worries and to do that you need to take care what goes in or on your body. Another thing is to clear your mid. Its not good to be stressed out a lot because it can cause you problems both mentally and physically. You want to clear your mind once in while and relax by yourself and lock away your problems from the world around you for a while. To clear all that stress. Lastly you want to be spiritually well. Know your place in the world. Find out why you where put here in the first place. To do good in the world. To be the change you want to see.

                    LAUSD Student Services

•  Student life
• Student Tools and resources
• Graduation Requirements
• College and career Info.
• Online Learning in LAUSD 

These are some of the services that the LAUSD web page offers to its students. I think it is a good online service because it can provide its students with information they might need. For example if a high school student needs to know the requirements it takes to graduate then they can be informed by the page. Another example is when a student might be planning to move to this district and they want to be informed of the standards that the district requires for them to follow. I just think that it is a great thing that the district provides many information for its students.
