Today President Obama gave a speech to students about listening. He told us that if you give up on your work you are not just giving up on yourself, you are also giving up on your country. He also told us that if you keep on working you can get better at whatever you are trying to do but if you stop than you'll never get better at it. He talked about if you do stuff that you like and you don't want to stop until you master it, that's good. Michael Jordon was the best basketball player but he got kicked off his high school basketball team because he wasn't as good at the time but he kept practicing and got better.
He told us to think of ways we can do better at getting an education. I am going to focus on listening and not goofing off so much when it's time to work.
