    “We learn to do by doing”

~Spencer W. Kimball

This quote means that the only way we can learn is by teaching ourselves. For example, no one is there to tell us what is right and what is wrong all the time. Therefore, we need to know and learn by ourselves. If one day you DID something wrong, you know because someone told you it was wrong. This was a self teaching, now you know you’re not suppose to do it again because you failed the first time and now you are trying to not fail again. Another example is, if you know how something is going to turn out (bad) because it has happened to you already, then don’t do it. This time you try to do better. Everything we do, we learn from it.

"Doing what you want because it feels right, doesn't mean it feels right for others"

~Levi Escobar

This quote means that even if you feel that you're doing the right thing, doesn't mean it is. Everyone's' feelings matter in the situation, so doing what YOU feel is right can be wrong. For example, your mom might say that you're not allowed to dirty your clothes because you’re going to get a picture taken. However, your neighbor comes over wanting to play or hang out outside. Unfortunately, you see that his clothes aren't new or clean, so you think that the right thing might be to get as far away from him as much as you can. These are your thoughts and feeling, but looking into your neighbor's it seems that he/she feels like you are rejecting them. Worry about others too, they are much more important than your opinion.

"Choosing the right is always the right thing to do."

~Alex Linares

This quote means that choosing the right will lead you to a "perfect" world. If you prefer to do what feels easy, it wont always be what's right. Therefore, what feels right and what feels easy are completely two different worlds. For instance, if you come to the world where you're a "CTR" person which is not possible, then you would say that you are a CTR person. However, whatever they teach is us here is way different to what the world has for us. Everyone knows that no one can be perfect,but it doesn't hurt to try to become a better and different person.

"What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player."

~John Wooden

This quote is telling us that we should worry more about how we are, than what we do. For example, instead of focusing on how athletic or smart you are, you should try to help someone with their homework, or train someone to be better at a sport they love. It's not always about ourselves, it's also about the people around us that need to be noticed as well.

Programs at these schools may lead to a certificate in an artistic specialty or to an associate's or bachelor's degree in fine arts. Independent art school instruction tends to focus on studio work, while university and college programs also emphasize academics.

Demand for this particular Career

                    With the country in the middle of a jobs crisis, finding any form of employment is tough, let alone jobs in the arts. It turns out, however, that the future of America’s creative-types might be far less bleak than it seems at present moment, according to a report by the National Endowment for the Arts, using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Over the next seven years, job growth in the arts will exceed job growth as a whole, the report states.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why or why not?

                                 I would like to be an artist in the future. I can be a good one right now, but I would like to study and go more than beyond than what I already know now.

"True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse"

~Pathros 

This quote is telling us that no matter how rich or poor we are, the thing that counts most is our hearts. Meaning the way we act, what we do for others and how we feel. Being poor from our hearts makes us vacant and foolish. We don't care about anything and we just want to do whatever we want. However, if we're rich from our heart, we know what's right and what isn't good for us. For example, we love ourselves more, we think more positive than before, and our hearts  are now ready to care for others and help on anything they need.
