The movie was very good, when the coach was pushing that boy to go on it made me realize to never give up. So therefore that movie inspirational to me personally.

Katherine: I found this motivational because the coach pushed him further then he ever thought he could go. I wish I had someone who motivated me in school. I am not a very self motivated person. I have set goals to because the captain of my lacrosse team and to get better grades this year. I feel if you really want to achieve your goals, you have to have the mind set and mental toughness to achieve your goals/
The clip from "Facing the Giants" is motivational because it basically shows that you can do whatever you push yourself to do. I'm kind of just self motivated in doing things doesn't matter what it is. Goals? none are set yet but I'm sure there will be. Anyone can achieve a goal they just have to be willing to try and set there mind to it.

Benito...the coach from faceing the giants was very motivational. Reminds me of my coach when i played JV for franklin. He always pushed me to do better no matter what. He always told me to never quit or give up.
Well in middle school i was on a baseball team and the coaches were pretty motivational. This year i have set a goal, (or goals) to not be entirely lazy and actually try and not fall behind on work. In my opinion, people that set a goal and do it to the best of their ability is reaching their goal. As long as it isnt something totally impossible, like straight A's if all you get is C's and B's at best. Dream for the impossible, i guess.

My goals for this year are to pass every class. Especially the ones I failed last year. Another goal is to at least get a job over the summer. The factors that determines whether you can achieve your goal or not is if you really try to to complete your goal. Try as hard as you can to reach your goal.
This clip inspired me to give my very best even if I don't think it is possible. I know getting all A's this school year will be tough, but I am still willing to push myself. Before, I told myself, there was no way that I could get all A's, but then I realized that I wanted to be able to go to college and do everything that I want to do. If your brain tells you can't do it, it is so easy to just let yourself give up. If you try your hardest, it will get you closer to achieving your goals.
This clip kind of sucks for me, I have played football all my life, I have always had my coaches and father there to motivate me. This year I gave up football to focus on a job and my schoolwork. It was the hardest decision I ever made, probably the dumbest decision. If I could go back to the day were I decided to quit, I would have chose not to. This year I set my goal to a great football season and good grades. I let my football goal diminish by choosing to focus on school. In order to achieve a goal, you need a mental vision, where you focus. You must have a heart to achieve that goal and a heart not to quit on that goal.

This video from facing the giants is motivating because it shows that you can do anything as long as you keep trying harder and harder. I have set many goals for myself this year. One of my main goals this year is to get good grades in school. Grades are a very important factor when it comes to getting into a good college. In my opinion as long as you keep good grades you can do anything when you get out of high school.
This clip from Facing the Giants is very motivational,it shows how hard the boy struggled to make it across the field but no matter how hard it was he still never gave up. This year I've set a goal for myself to be more involved in school activities and focus more on my grades. In my opinion those who are willing to push themselves to next level to achieve a goal will be the ones to succeed. -Dixie
