Another TED talk on success

I think that Richard St. John's mistake is to stop making efforts. For example, he kept making efforts before reaching his goal. But, he stoped doing as soon as he succeeded because he was satisfied with the situation. And he lost his money. So, he should have kept making efforts, and he shouldn't have satisfied with the situation. So, i think he told to us the importance of making efforts even if we succeed something. Of course, we do know that. But, it is difficult to continue doing that. if this presentation were an argumentative essay, the thesis statement would be it is important for everyone to continue making efforts.

Joasim de Pasada and his Magical Marshmallow

I think the result of his experiment tells us what is needed to success our future. And it tells us that it is importance to wait in order to succeed something. His experiment is interesting for me because he use children to clear his ideas. And children in the video were so cute. I think we have a lot of opportunities to implement more my self-discipline in my life. For example, we have to hand in many reports during this season. So, we can discipline ourselves from this. We can learn the importance of keeping time.I have "marshmallows" in my life. It is shopping. After finishing tests and so on, I'm looking forward to waiting the time my summer vacation will come.

The web

I use Internet almost every day to watch web site,to search for something.Sometimes, we use web sites for our studies and homework. I think that it's useful for us because we can get a lot of information as soon as possible. for example, we searched for informations on Internet in writing class. When we write reports, we need some information. So, Internet is neccesary for us. But, there are many mistaken information on web sites. So, we have to take attention whether it is true or not. And I don't know a lot of websites. My favorite website is YouTube. all of you know it, right? We can watch a lot of things on YouTube for free.Sometimes, I watch it.
