He kept swinging and swinging, until he finally reached his goal. He ever broke Babe Ruth's record. If we would never give up on what we believe in, life would be easy to enjoy.

When we really want to accomplish something we should never give up. If we give up we will not be able to accomplish anything, we have to keep on trying it shouldn't matter how much hard work we have to do because at the end it will always pay off. When we want to accomplish our goals we have to choose the right and pursue our goals. If we don't believe in ourselves not one will and we will never accomplish anything in life. We should always believe in ourselves and others we believe in us too.

I really like this quote, it's like saying to accomplish something you have to try, just like the baseball examples. To make hits you have to swing an if you don't make it the first time , keep swinging until you make it. Persist until you accomplish. =)

These quotes up here are very meaningful. They mean exactly what they say. When you hit you have to swing, if there's no swing there's no hit. When someone wants to get something or wants to be something or someone they will keep insisting keep trying until they get there they wont give up until they reach the top.

LIke Finding Nemo's, "just keep swimming." No matter how tough it get you just have to keep swinging, or swimming whichever you prefer. That is the critical moment in your life where you have the choice to be a successful person or a failure.

It's true, we need to take hits to succeed or to reach our goal even a dream. We need to take hits until we accomplish what we are going for. We need to take hits, even though we might strike at least we try. If we don't take hits we will not move forward or any where. It might be really hard but it will pay up sooner or later. We need to keep trying till we finally take a full run!

To succeed you have to endure obstacle but you must always remember they lead to your future. No matter how hard it might get always have clear mind and try your best. Like a baseball player they swing no matter what, they don't get distracted, hitting the ball is their goal. Persists and win, work hard and succeed. Always Choose The Right in whatever it is.

The quote is good, not only for baseball but in life also. Sometimes you don't feel good, or you might be having a bad day/week but you always have to "go down swinging". Which means to always try your best no matter what's wrong with you. "You can NEVER get a 'hit' if you don't swing."

I really like this quote because it is a perfect example of never giving up. Hank Aaron never gave up and he broke Babe Ruth's home run record. He had a motto which he fallowed all the time which was to always keep swinging. No matter what was going on or where he was he never gave up and kept swinging. He was very persistent and that's what lead him to succeed.

Ou do have to step up to the plate and swing in order to hit the ball.. so similar to life, that you have to step up and swing and try your hardest to make that home run, or to make your career. If you stay in the dug out and hide you can never succeed. You may not succeed in the first chance you have but you have to keep trying. No one is going to do it for you, you have to be independent of yourself. You have to believe you succeed in order to succeed. Babe Ruth didn't have the best home run record since the beginning, he had to work his way to the top. Just as everyone should do in life.

this is a good quote because its true like if you lose a game or something dont feel like oh thats it we suck or i suck. dont think that, if you always believe in your self and your teammates then you guys will win. always believe that no matter what happens you will always be a winner to other people even if you lose. always keep swing and believing that you can do it and you will.
ReplyDeleteVincent G Block 1
To keep on swinging means to keep trying your hardest to make a home run which means to succeed. All you need to do to swing is step up to the plate (the frontline ) to go out there and give it a try .No swings no hits means if you don't aim at your goals in life and never try then you'll never accomplish them.

I like the baseball picture the most. It's true. We got to keep swinging, even if we miss. And if we ever feel like we're never gonna hit the ball and we stop, then we are right. Why? Because we stop swinging entirely. We got to keep swinging if we ever want to get where we want to be.

Nice video, love the pictures, and "To get a hit you must swing to get a swing you must.. step up to the plate" just like Hank Aaron did he broke Babe Ruth's home run record, he swung and stepped up to the plate he believed in himself that he could do it and he did. If you want it give it a shot and get it, you won't loose anything but gain pride.

When you step up to the plate of life, you have to have guts to swing. Its okay to strike out because it will only get you closer to your goal. It is not easy to swing. It is not easy to make a run let alone a home run. You will achieve this only by working hard. All day everyday. In your mind, you have to constantly say to yourself that you will make a run or make a home run. Exceed your goals to overcome obstacles that might come your way. You have to keep trying its the only way you are going to achieve. Hank Aaron didn't break Babe Ruth's record just by sitting there and doing nothing. He had the mentality of an athlete and just keep swinging. Look at where he is today! I advise you to step up to the plate and keep swinging and swinging. CHOOSE THE RIGHT---------------->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I ALSO BELIEVE THE SAME ABOUT TODAY'S MESSAGE. IF YOU KEEP ON TRYING AND TRYING AGAIN AND AGAIN YOU WILL GET BETTER AT IT. I LIKE THE QUOTE BECAUSE HE IS THE MAN WHO BROKED BABE'S RUTH HOME RUN RECORD. AND HE SAID THAT HE WAS ALWAYS SWINGING NO MATTER WHAT HE FELT LIKE AND SO ON. SO ON ANOTHER WORDS, YOU NEED TO PERSIST ON EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO ACCOMPLISH BECAUSE IN THE END IT WILL PAY OFF.

the video and quotes are telling me that i should give it my all when doing things i love and that it don't matter wether others like it or not. to always give things a try even if it seems hard. to just stay focus on what you like doing even if things seem rough. it doesn't hurt to try, so keep swinging with CTR.

IN other word what the quotes are trying to say is to keep trying and never stop till you have accomplish what you were trying to do. If you dont get it the first time keep trying and trying and trying and you will get it right. never stop trying you can make it you just need to try hard and put all you effort and you make it all the way. Like Hank (Henry) Aaron breaks Babe Ruth record he just keep swinging. so you do the same and just keep swinging and ever stop till you have accomplish what you wanted to.

I really like todays post, especially the "No swings- no hits" part. If you don't swing how will you know if you would have ever made a hit? No matter what always swing, swing until you make a hit. Even if you don't feel like yourself, or you may feel gloomy, find that inner strength that motivation to swing and make that hit. Every swing you make brings you closer a hit.

Keep on swinging means to never quit on anything you set yourself too and when you make a home run it means that you have successfully achieve your goal. A batter never stops swinging they are always looking for a home run or a good hit. You can also do this. Keep on trying at the things you love the most and you will eventually get something good out of it. Never Give Up!

Keep on swinging meaning keep on trying. Try, try and try again and you will achieve someday. Never give up. If you don't try, you won't achieve. You will know if you can achieve it once you try it.

You must take your goal and take a chance on it. Don't procrastinate or hesitate on something you think might help your goal, because it so might happen that you just let your chance run away if you don't do anything. But if you took a swing at your goal then it will either get you one step closer to your goal or you might end up going all the way to the home-run.:)
ReplyDeleteSo Choose the Right!! in taking a chance, don't be afraid. If it feels right and the idea is logical then its ok^____^
You don't accomplish anything when you give up. You let yourself down and others around you. You need to bring yourself up every time you fail.You have to find the inner strength in you to keep going. Like Hank Aaron, he is a great example of someone who never gave up. If you don't going you will not get to see what could of been, ALways choose the right and you will get there! :D

This quote means that success is like playing baseball. When you step up to the plate to bat, trying to hit the ball is like reaching for your goals, and hitting a home-run, that is success. It will take a while but it's okay, the more times you strike out or come out short of a home-run, that will get you closer to reaching your goals and hitting that success home-run. All you have to do is follow the CTR motto and always work hard and work smart and you will hit that success home-run. CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

No matter what he just swung, so in that case i should have that capability to do whatever it is in any condition i am. We all should not complain or lack in anything because if we want to be successful and have that good feeling we need to stay strong and just go for it because we may never know.

These quotes are true you are never going to hit anything if you don't swing. But at the same time that doesn't mean you are always gonna hit something or that you are even gonna hit something.

well the thing that that this blog made me think was if you really want to do something then you need to keep trying until you get it right . like the baseball player he never gave up on his dream of making lots if home runs.If the player never gave up why should you give -up . if you try as hard as him you'll accomplish your goals to become a very successful person in life. remember your the only person that could stop you .

Never give up on your goal, keep trying, and work hard for it and you will achieve it. If you never try you're never going to achieve it. Just like in baseball, basketball, soccer, ect. If you don't swing you're never going to get a home-run, if you never shoot you're never going to score any points or goals, if you never try you're not going to achieve anything. Just keep trying, no matter how hard it gets don't give up and you will reach your goals eventually.

Keep swinging is something you do to get a chance at hitting the ball. If you step up to the plat and do nothing you will strike out every time, or you won't even get to see if you could hit or will hit a home run. You never know if you will hit it out of the park or get a chance at base to home.
ReplyDeletePut this in life experiences. Life is the pitcher, the plate is the situation or opportunity, and last but most definitely not the least the batter which is you! Him swinging and hitting the ball to a home run or a base hit, in life means that either succeeding or on your way to success, if they get out, someone beat you to it. If the batter (you) does not step up to the plate, how will he get a hit or a home run? If he swings (takes the opportunity, deals with the situation) he may have the chance at hitting the home run (succeeding or the chance to). Take a swing don't be scared to take a chance, strike out and know that at least you didn't go down without a fight.
IF you ever feel like giving up, you shouldn't. Try your best at all times and don't give up :) If you're playing baseball and you swing but you miss, that just means you should try again and again until you make it. Try your best to achieve your goals, even if you feel that its too hard for you and you cant do it, you shouldnt stop trying! Choose the right! :)
