“You will go far with CTR” -Mr. Haymore

“Choosing the right“ is a motto that Mr. Haymore created and really looks up to. He does not only motivate himself, but he also encourages other people to make the right decisions as well as to keep moving forward. This motto that he has created is straightforward, and i believe it can really change a person's life in many ways. Mr. Haymore pursues students to do their best and always has a really positive attitude with all his students every time in and out of class. The motto “CTR” can be inspiring to anyone who may just need a little bit of courage, which is something that Mr. Haymore gives out. Choosing the right is very important because that is what builds up who you will be in the future, who you will become. CTR is something that should be part of our daily lives. Make the right decisions/ Choose the right and good will come to you. Choose the wrong and you will have nothing but downfalls.

YThe ultimate choice

The Ultimate Choice

Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions for the remainder of your life. This one choice, The Ultimate choice, is your keystone for being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. 

THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is: 

To be a CTR person--to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT 24/7 !!!

Making the right decisions is important, only for the fact that, that determines what your whole life will depend on. A person who constantly makes bad decisions and has no plans ahead of himself/herself will end up in a place that not so many people will enjoy being at. Your life depends on the decisions you make, because if you take the right decisions then success will come into your life, followed by many other good things that will benefit you throughout it. If you take the wrong choices, you will not get where you want to be and the only thing that will come into your life is failure. I believe everyone is capable of achieveing what they want, but they just need to work hard enough to reach that goal. Some people may have better abilities, but if someone really wants something, abilities dont matter. Choosing the right, hard effort and dedication will get you what you want.

Character

If there is beauty in character, 

there will be harmony in the home.

 If there is harmony in the home, 

there will be order in the nation.

 If there is order in the nation,

 there will be peace in the world. 

Conclusion: 

If there is beauty in character,

 there will be peace in the world.

 Chinese Proverb

   Having beauty in the character is important because that is what builds up who you are. Who you are is what you will become. If your character isn't good, then good things won't come your way. Sometimes people mess up, and they mess it up for themselfs and sometimes other people. We all make mistakes but i guess we can't go back on them no matter how much we want it. Your character will help you make the right decisions so you wont have to look back at them later. There will be peace at home if you have a good character, things will go right and you will be happy. Being happy is a good thing, it is a great feeling that your chaarcter can take away if you make the bad choices. Being happy makes you be yourself, it makes you feel positive about the things that are happening in your life, and I doubt anyone would want to ruin that. Value the things you have by having a good character. Keeping a good character will get you to places and you will recieve what you want, what you need in your life.

WEDNESDAY, June 1, 2016 (HealthDay News) -- Ritalin, a popular drug for treating attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), might increase the risk of an abnormal heart rhythm shortly after a young person starts taking it, a new study suggests.Children and teens who were prescribed methylphenidate -- sold under the brand names Ritalin, Daytrana and Concerta -- had a 61 percent increased risk of arrhythmias during the first two months of use, according to the analysis of South Korean patients.But most children on the medication should not experience heart problems, stressed senior study author Nicole Pratt, a senior research fellow at the Quality Use of Medicines and Pharmacy Research Center at the University of South Australia."In the average child, the risk of serious cardiovascular events is extremely small [three per 100,000 per year], and any absolute excess risk associated with methylphenidate is also likely to be small," Pratt said.Also, the study did not prove that the medication causes an irregular heartbeat.However, doctors should take these findings into account when putting a child on methylphenidate, Pratt added.

• A popular drug for treating attention-defict hyperactivity disorder, might increase the risk of an abnoraml heart rhythm.
• People who suffer from ADHD are involved in this issue
• They are studying more about this issue to see how they can prevent that from happening or what is causing that symptom 

This even relates to me because i have friends that suffer from ADHD and it can be something that can affect the. Also because this may not be the only drug that bring side effect such as an abnormal heart attack. Other medicines could have symptoms that we didnt even know about and they should be looked at. 

Coming to the health fair taught me about many services that I wasn't really aware of. For example, how to apply to medical at a low price. Some people suffer from economic problems and can't afford to spend on check-ups so they believe they don't have any other options. The health fair also showed me how undocumented people are eligible to receive medical care. The fair offered students volunteer opportunities, which is beneficial to receive the ours needed to graduate. Having these events is important, because they help bring knowledge into our community. Another reason why these events is so our community can be informed, and be able to know how to stay healthy. These fairs welcome all families and it is a great opportunity for people to receive knowledge about how to take care of their body.

Student Success Statement

“If i’ve got correct goals, and if i keep pursuing them the best way i know how, everything else falls into line. If i do the right thing right, I’m going to succeed.” -Dan Dierdorf

Knowing how to do the right think right is very important. For example, if you are suppose to wash the dishes but you keep pausing and taking breaks every 5 minutes, the you are doing the right thing wrong. The reason for that is because you are doing the right thing by washing the dishes but the wrong thing by pausing every so often, which will make what you’re doing take even longer to finish up. Doing the right thing wrong will take up to much of your time and will unfocus you from your main focus. Doing the right thing right will help you get things done much quicker and better because you will only be focused on your main focus. Keep yourself focused on just one thing because the rest doesn't have to matter if you want to get things done the correct way. It is important to make the right decisions because that will lead you up to good things and not bad.
