Innovation Electric Cars: Tesla 

Tesla’s luxurious Model S electric car is developing its battery and recharging technology.Tesla has an important edge over its competitors in the race to bring electric cars to the masses.Tesla’s Model S is expensive it ranges from $70,000 to over $100,000, but its range is 265 miles, more than triple that of Nissan’s Leaf (75 miles). Within a few years, Tesla hopes to produce much more affordable vehicles including one that costs $30,000 to $35,000 with a range similar to that of the Model S.Tesla also wants to make electric cars more practical by building a nationwide network of charging stations that can deliver 200 miles of charge in about half an hour compared to several hours to charge an electric car at an ordinary station today.Today’s electric vehicles promise several advantages over gas-powered cars.  

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Habit 1: Be Proactive
"Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all the other habits and that's why it comes first. It says, "I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. I'm responsible for my own happiness or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."

Reflection:What I think this means is that you should be responsible for your own actions. Being proactive is a great habit to have, because you never waste any time. Being proactive allows you to have more free time. For example, let's say I have a lot of homework, but I have one week to do it. If I do the homework on the first day I get it then, I'll have the rest of the week to myself. I always try to be proactive because I love taking naps and playing basketball, so I need to do my homework quick, so I could have a 2hr nap then play basketball until I have to got to sleep. When I am not being proactive I usually take a long and cold shower to wake me up. Being proactive also allows me to carve out my own journey. It allows me to do whatever I want to do not what others want me to do. What the quote above states is that when you are proactive you are the main man and the person with the say. 

                                              Habit 2: Begin with the end in Mind                                                  "Control your own destiny or someone else will." Jack Welch

Reflection: What I believe this means is that you should always take charge of your destiny. You should know where you want to stand and do something to make sure you end up there. You should never let anyone tell you your goals or what you should be doing. This will help you control your life more. For example when people ask you what College you want to go to . What do you say the one you want to go to because it has the major you want or the one your friend is going to. .... OF course you have to say the one that has the major you want to go into, if not then what is the point. You should always do things because you want to not because your friend or your mom or anyone else wants to go there. It should be you. Begin with the End in Mind means to begin each day, task, or project with a clear vision of your desired direction and destination, and then continue by flexing your proactive muscles to make things happen. 

                                                     Habit 3: Put First Things First                                                          "Organize and execute around priorities." 

• Generations of time management 

• Notes and checklists 

• The calendar 

• Time management 

• Self management 

• Learn to say “No” 

• Adapt to sudden changes 

• Successfully delegate 15 

You must make sure to follow these steps In order to learn how to put things first. When you do things that are important first you end up realizing how much time you actually have to relax and do the other non important stuff you end up doing. You should really learn  how to manage time in order to have a good schedule. Make sure you always carry a calendar with things you need and want to do. Learn to say NO to the things you do not have to do. For example lets say you have a big chemistry test on Monday but your friend is having her birthday bash on Saturday. What do you do ? If you were smart you said that you will stay home and study. Forget a party you'll have many of those later on, right now you should worry about passing the chemistry test that is 60% of your grade. 

Habit  #4: Think Win-Win

"Think Win-Win or not Deal"

You always want a mindset of winning. You never want to lose because then you're not succeeding in life. Having that mindset of winning will allow you have an advantage because now you'll have the confidence to win. Many that do have this mindset are usually the successful people. People that have this win win mindset usually win. For example, Leo Messi  would always play even if he was injured. He would do this just because he wanted to win and had that win or win mindset. Integrity: sticking with your true feelings, values, and commitments. Maturity:expressing your ideas and feelings with courage and consideration for the ideas and feelings of others. Abundance Mentality:believing there is plenty for everyone. 

                                 Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood                                       "Diagnose before you subscribe" 

What this means to me is that you should always have steps toward creating a plan. When you plan on doing something you have to have steps. Make sure you know exactly what you are planning and know how to plan it. When creating a plan you must make sure you know your routine and make sure you put exact times and dates. What I think this means is, you should be good listener and learn what things are about before you start teaching other people. This is a great message because it shows how you should learn to be taught before teaching. I could remember a time when my coach told the whole team and said " I know you can play, anyone can play. It's a matter if you can understand the process. Overall what this process means is to listen first and then you can go out and teach someone else. 

                                                             Habit 6: Synergize                                                                 "The Whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)"

What this means to me is that it is good to help others when they need it.Synergize is the habit of creative cooperation. It also means to be open minded and work as a team to work on solution to problems. This word is quite new to me never heard of it, but know that I have done some research its very important to be synergize. An example of synergize is any type of team. Every team has to be open minded towards new ideas and they also have to work as a team. This is a great example because are only as good as their worst player. By getting the others involved will help them grow to better players. I did not know what this word meant before, but now that I know it I want to use it my everyday life. This mentality of being synergize will my trait of being a leader. I would like that leader trait to be the strongest. Me being the leader will allow me to control my own destiny. I want the keys to the car and ride waves of reality.  

                                                         Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw                                                              Four Dimensions of Self-Renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional

What I think this metaphor means is to practice. If you practice everyday then you'll be more experience that's what is means by sharpening the saw. It can be by any four social/emotional, spiritual, mental, or physical. Here is a physical example, if I practice everyday in soccer than more likely than not I will be better. By practicing it will increase my production on the field. I like this example on sports, but you can use it in education. Like when you're studying for that final exam, so you study all night. By studying all night you are sharpening the saw for the exam you are about to take. This is a great example because it shows how you can sharpen the saw physical or mentally. Spiritual example can be you studying your religion so you can be at peace with GOD.

Reflection: How this has reflected on me and how it had impacted me is by showing me that there are several ways to do things and not just in one way. You should always be aware of the things that are being done and the way they are being done. Sometimes there could be shortcuts to doing these things so you don't take forever doing them. You could always be more productive while doing these things.The 7 habits have been change the way I think in different perspectives. I have been using all the 7 habits. If it's, be proactive, begin with an end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand then to be understood, synergize, or sharpening the saw. I was in the midst of doing my college application and when I started to do it all I remember was how can apply the 7 habits to my college application. I was being proactive when I was seeking out for information about colleges. This took a lot of time and effort, but I was on task and proactive so I finished with time to spare. I began with end mind because I knew I was doing my college plan, I wanted to apply to college. As of right now I am very anxious because I want to be accepted and that's thinking with a win win mentally.

But at the end of the day I felt good because I know it did something good. Later that day I went home and went to the Long Beach Outlets with my baby brother. On Saturday I came to school to start on my CSU application and ask for help on it. After that I went home ate and then left to work. I did not leave till 9 pm when we close. On Sunday was the same routine I woke up, shower, ate breakfast and left to work and did not leave till 9 when we close. Overall my weekend was really boring. 

Six Rules to Make People Like You

1.How To Win Friends and Influence People 

I normally like to keep things to myself, but when it comes to a conversation, I'm very interested in what others are talking about. Many people just fake it and act like they're actually interested in the conversation. I'm always genuine when talking to someone because they might have advice that will help you in the future. For example when I had public speakers in my class they have great advice about what the real world is like. You can always learn stuff from anyone, everyone has past experiences that will help you in the long run. From my own experience I need to improve on being more interested in what other people say. I need to be more involved in the conversation and be listening to what they are saying so I can say my input in the conversation. I always want to be in the conversation so I don't feel as I'm left out. Honestly, I really do a better job in being in the conversation. From now on I will strive to be genuine and interested in other people.  2

2.Smile

Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, "I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you." This quote is trying to say to be kind to you're enemy's and too forgive them but to remember their names because its very important to remember. Also if that if you remember someone name because it will make them remember you're name. They will want to be come friends with you because you know them and your kind to them. They will and would want to be your friend because having friends is the best thing you can ever have and they are very fun and funny people to have around you.Make sure you always smile despite the situation. When you are low you should show that you are strong by giving a smile and when you are happy you should smile too. The point is that where ever you are or the situation you should always try to give that positive look.

3.Remember Names

"A man's name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language."This rule is stating that you can make people like you because you are listening to what they have to say which means you are showing interest in them. ON the other hand, if you only talk about yourself and don't let them speak they will think you're selfish.Something very important to get people to like you is remembering who they are and what name they go by. A person is interested more in their name than all the other names combined. It makes a person feel very special when you remember their name because it shows a piece of your mind remembers them. A person's name is the most unique and identitive word a person has a connection to. When we remember peoples name, it shows a sign of courtesy and a way of recognizing them. When a person remembers our name after meeting us, we feel respected and more important. It makes a positive and lasting impact on us. When we don't remember a name and people have to repeat is several timesit makes us feel a little unappreciated. 

4.Be a good listener encourage others to talk. 

"Remember that the man you are talking to is a hundred times more interesting in himself and his wants and his problems then he is in you and your problems." What I believe this means is that you should always listen to what another person has to say. The other person may be saying something that might be very useful now or maybe in the future. You should always ask questions. Make sure the person gets out all the information he/she wants to tell you so he them feels more comfortable speaking. When speaking to someone you should always look them in the eye, don not look at your phone, make sure you try to relate and add to their stories, and listen most of all. A person will really value you if he sees these on you. Make sure you focus on the other person and not what is around you.  And most of all engage, I know there are moments you just don't want to talk to a person you should always try to pay attention and give them respect. 

5. Talk in terms of the other mans interest

"The royal road to a man's heart is to talk to him about the things he treasures most."  What I believe this mean is that you should always try to relate and  see what others like and have a conversation about that. It shows manners and makes you look intelligent because of the level of interest you have. I have another theory that it means to be open minded. Being open minded helps you see things in a different perspective. If you never talk about others interest then later they become the same as you and just talk about themselves. Having an ability like that will help in the long run. It will make people want to talk to you, because you are very rational. When you about others interest you can get ideas from others and make your own idea. This will make a very successful person with a lot of knowledge. 

6. Make the other person feel important and do it sincerely. 

"The desire to be important is the deepest urge in human nature." (John Dewey)" When you communicate with someone you should always make sure you are paying attention to them, You should always make sure you make the feel comfortable and safe around  you. Being sincere helps someone believe that you are a genuine person. By being sincere you are making the other person feel more comfortable. This will lead to a more interesting conversation. This is a great trait because if you make them feel comfortable, then they are more likely to open up. When you can make people open up it makes them know you actually care. For example, someone can just fake it and not be genuine when talking to you. They will most likely be using sarcasm because they don't know how to make you feel comfortable. Someone that will usually always be genuine and make you feel comfortable will be your mother.
