My Vision, My Mission, My Legacy

I believe my future holds good things for me. I also think that if i follow the right path i will be able to get those good things in store for me. Unless something bad happens I'm going to try 100% to get on the right road. The future is everything to me.
My vision for my life is to achieve my goals. My goals is to make it to College and the NBA. I see my life taking me and leading me through the right path. Because school is going good and basketball is too. I'm going to achieve my goals by giving it my all to be successful. And if my plans go wrong, my back-up is to be a designer.
My goal is to go to college,and play basketball. I don't know what school to go to but my favorite is UNC. If i make it to college I'm going to try to get drafted in to the NBA. That is my mission, but if that doesn't work out right. I'm going to be a clothing and shoe designer. Some of my inspirations is Pharrell and some of the Nike shoe designers like LBJ and Kanye.
I want to be known and remembered as a good person. Whenever people talk about me, the first thing i want them to say is that he was a good person. Especially my Friends, because all my Friends are cool and and i know they think I'm cool too. And when my family talk about me one main thing i want them to say is that basketball was my life, and i loved to spent time with my Friends and family. And if i have any kids i would want them to say that i was a great dad and a great Friend.
In conclusion my vision, my mission, and my legacy is all to be successful is one way or another. That's one of my main things i need to focus on. Another is my sccomplishments i think thats important. when you accomplish things you get remembered more. Plus you become more well known

Nicaragua Essay

I think the U.S. values education more then Nicaragua because of the high standards we set for kids in school. Also the higher the standards the more money you could make. Also is that the more the teacher gets paid the more they want to keep their job. The least they get pad its more likely for them to quit.

Backing up reason number one is that the U.S. have more money then Nicaragua. That means that they have more technology and more things that can help them in class. Which will make their standards higher because of the amount of help they have. In Nicaragua there standards are probably not that high because of the amount of teaching sources and money. Plus on top of that students wight not attend school everyday
.

Supporting reason two is that if almost all of the kids are getting some kind of education there is some kind of money involved. After the kids leave school they can get a job and some money is going to the U.S. That mean that if they are educated more jobs would be available for them. If they are not educated it would be hard to find jobs. So the higher the standards the better money and jobs you could make.

For reason number three is that the higher the teacher get paid the more she teaches. The reason why is because if the teacher like her job she would probably want to tech more. And if she gets paid low and the money is not helping her she would probably not want to teach. There's a big difference in education in the U.S. and Nicaragua.

In conclusion higher the higher the standards the more money for the U.S. The more the teacher gets paid the more he or she would like to teach. Plus the U.S. have more teaching sources. Plus the kids have higher standards in school. Last is that the higher the teacher gets paid the more he or she would like her job. The least they get paid the least they will like there job.
