  2. ***EXAMPLE****

    This is saying not to let your problems or lack of...to get in your way. You can't let things that you can't control, get in the way of things that you can control. Specifically, yourself and your life. I see people come to school everyday and not ask for help or take control of their education. They make excuses about why they can't and all the rest, but the truth is they aren't putting int the effort. Like my grand-daddy used to say, " Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard". This is talking about doing the best you can, with what you have. Working it and at it , until you get it.

    This matters, because you only get one life. If you don't work on yourself and try to get better in every area of your life, you will wind up living with regrets and making excuses. I don't want to live my life wondering what could have been. I am going to go hard and do the best with what I have. God has blessed us all with gifts and talents, it is up to us to find out what they are and to work those gifts and talents to the best of our abilities.

  3. 1. This quote says "Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do."

    2. This quote means that you shouldn't let your incapabilities hinder you. That you should move past them and focus on what your capable of.

    3. This quote matters because a lot of people in life let their struggles stop them. They always stay focused on what they are not able to do. Instead of focusing on what they are good at. If they focused more on what they do good they would be able to master it . :)

  4. Don't let the hard things get in your way of doing something else right. What this means is that the difficult things in life that have never been done before distract you. If you can do something similar to your problem that can give you a solution. It matters because people try to do it right but they can't.Don't let that get you down. it's just a distraction of showing your capability. You can do something new but it takes time to perfect. While in process of learning you can do something else because the new is just a distraction. So don't let things interfere with the ones you can do.

  5. 1. This post says that you shouldn't let what you cant do mess up what you can do.
    2. This post means that their are going to be things you cant do. But their are also going to be things you can do.
    3. This post matters because its true. Many people feel bad when they cant do things other people can. But what you have to think about is that their are things you can do that other people cant. If you cant do something its okay. Concentrate on what you can do not what you cant. Don't feel bad when you cant do something, nobody's perfect.

  6. 1) this says that you should not let what you can't do get in the way of what you can.
    2) this means that if you cant do something do let it stop you from what you can do. worry about the positive aspect of it.
    3) this matters alot. this matters because we always focus on the bad and what we cant do. if we stopped thinking the negative and focused on what we can do then we would be better off. dont let something you can not control affect what you can control.

  8. 1. this says that you need to put what you can do first in any priorities and then after that you should or probably can worry about what you cant do.
    2. This means that there's no need to worry about what you cant do because it will take away from what you can do. Another thing is that you have to focus on the good and not the bad.
    3. This matters because if you don't put things you can accomplish first then you will have a hard time trying to accomplish them later with no or less experience. Another thing is that putting what you cant do first will take a lot away from the things that you can do and get over so you will have time to try and do what cant be done.

  9. 1.) This means that you need to start believing in yourself that you could do what you cant do.Their are a lot of people of people that don't believe in their self.When the people don't believe in their self then they will never be successful in life they will just be a failure.For example im in the Locke soccer team im i JV(junior varsity) but i believe in myself that i will make it up to Varsity im having faith in myself that i will move a level up.If i keep believing in myself then i will really move up.That is one of my goal in life.

  10. This Says Don't let Cant let you keep you from Can.
    This means don't let what you cant do hold you back.When you don't believe Your capable dont have a Good advantage or any room to put your heart to it.

    This Matter because when your filled up with Cant its hard to Throw Can in there.Change is not easy.When that Cant blocks off The Can its giving you an harder time to recover. Once its set in your mind you basically give up. ii guessss

  11. 1. This is saying don't let what you can't do interfere with what you can't do.

    2. This means when some thing is hard don't spend so much time on it if it's something you can do that's less harder do that first. Time is too short to be living in the past don't spend so much time on one thing.


    This applies to my life because I always tend to spend so much time on one thing. I feel like i have to do it or unless I feel like I have failed like I can't do what's hard. I like to challenge myself If there's some wrong I'm gonna do it until I get it right.

  12. 1.)It says don`t only focus on what you can do.
    2.)Just do what you can do.
    3.)Just do what you can.What you can`t do is not you`re problem.Don`t worry on it.

  13. This says never let the things you can't do hold you back from the things you can do

    This means when your stuck on something detour around it to something you can do without a problem

    This means that whenever something feels like it just really hard for example a math problem,skip that one and go to one that's not as hard

  14. 1)I think that this say that what you can't do something that don't mean that what you do have to give up on what you was doing.
    2)I think that this mean that every body is not good doing every think so if you can't do something that don't mean give up did keep trying to get it.
    3)I think that this matter because I can't a lot of things but i can do a lot of stuff. Like i am better in football then basketball.

  15. 1. This says not to let any problems or anything get in the way with something you can do.
    2. This means not to let anything interfere with something your capable of doing. You always have to forget about the things that you mess up on and focus on what you can do.
    3. This matters because if you can do something but you just keep letting the problems get in between it you won't ever achieve. At the end you are just going to be living with regrets, knowing that you could of done it. If you just leave all the problems behind you will be capable of many things. It matters because if I know that I am capable of it , later on I will regret not even trying to do it.

  16. 1) This say don't let nothing get in the way of what you are capable of doing.

    2) This means don't let problems that you have get in your way of what you know how to do or what you good at doing. Also don't focus on the negative things leave it in the pass focus on what you know how to do and what you can do.

    2) This matters because you get plenty of chances in life but only one life. If you worried about what yo can not do then you will not have enough time or wont be able to do what you capable of doing. If we don't open our selves to what talent that has been given to us then will what know what abilities we have. If we don't we will never know what god given talent we have if we focus on somethings that we can not do.

  21. This says don't think about your weaknesses think about your good habits that can take you further in life what ever you might not be able to do pay little attention to it because it doesn't matter there are many other things you can do that you can use to become what you choose to become. This matters because you shouldn't let small things bring you down and stop you from doing and achieving many great things if it can't be done that does not mean you won't be successful what matters the most is what can be done that is what's most inportant

  22. 1) This says not to let things you can't do be in the way of what you can do.
    2) This means that you shouldn't give up on something because you can't do it. You can find another way to do it with what you can do.
    3) This matters because a lot of people let things they can't do get in the way of what they can do. If you do let it interfere that can cost you a lot. Never let little things trip you on the way to reaching your goal. Always keep your head up high.

  23. - This post says that if you sit there contemplating on what you can't do, you will never know what you can do. Focus on now.
    - This post mean that you need to pay attention to what you hear with your eyes and look at what you see with your ears. Don't stop yourself from what you can accomplish, rather then what you want to complete.
    - I can apply this to myself because I know that I am the controller of my right now, the overseer of my past, and the creater of my future. The things in the past I can not change, I can only choose to learn from the mistakes. As for my present, I am only allowed to do what I can not do. And I say that because I know that I am capable of doing anything that I want to do, no task is to difficult for me to attempt. However if I do attempt to try something, and do not succeed, then that means I know what I need to do, so I can come back to it. Instead of focusing on it right now, which is how my future will come about.

  24. This says that you shouldn't let things bring you down and think in the things you could do.

    This means that you shouldn't think in the things you cant do.You should think in the many things you could do.

    This matters because many people don't accomplish things because they think in the things they can't do and this brings them down.Also they never think about the things they can do.Sometimes things don't come out how they want them to be and they just give up.Life is about making mistakes and not letting them bring you down.Also you need to think positive and not think in the things you cant do.

  25. - This quote is saying don't let what you have not accomplish interfere with what you need to accomplish.
    - This quote means that if you always let what you haven't accomplished hold you back from your goals you will never have success in life because you put into your mind that you cant accomplish such and such goal because you made one mistake in the past and you are letting it dictate your decisions in the future.
    -I can apply this to my life by not letting something i didn't do interfere with what i need to be doing. Don't let my past mistakes stop me from accomplishing my future goals.
