ReplyDeletei agree with the quote because when most people think its hard to learn they automatically thinks they going to fail instead of trying until you get it instead of quitting. also nothing scares exept the fat i mite fail the regents.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the quote because the more you focus on failing you will fail because you aren't attempting to succeed. The only thing that scares me is the consequences behind not trying.
ReplyDeletei agree with the quote beacause WHENN YOU STOP LEARNING YOUR CHEATING YOURSELF AND GONNA FAIL ANYWAY
ReplyDeleteQUESTION 2 STAYING FOCUSED AND NOT LETTING THINGS I GOT PLANNED AFTER CLASS DISRUPT MY THOUGHT PROCESS DURING CLASS
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with this quote because it takes a great amount of courage to face the things that are unknown to us. We are afraid to be judged by those around us...
ReplyDelete1.Learning should be life long, but the older we get the more likely we are to be preoccupied with things other than education. I agree with this qoute. We blame "life" or the hustle and bustle, on our unwillingness to continue to read and learn. Instead of prioritizing time to read, go to school and study we become master's of mediocrity and excuse our sloppiness.
ReplyDelete2. What scares me the most in regards to the mastery of the English language is allowing my closed circle of friends to limit my use of the English language and desire to expand my vocabulary and conversational content.
I agree with this quote . In life people tend to run from the things that they are weak in and when it's time to face it they either think negative about it or rob themselves in effort and seek an negative out come me I honestly can say English hasn't thrown anything at me that I cannot handle but the only English literature I do not like feeling wise are essays but English is ok
ReplyDeletei argeee with this quote because i feel people don't use there knowledge in the right way. people chose not to learn because they want to follow other people but its there fault. one thing that scares me is not getting out of high school and i want to get out and do better for my son and i .
