"Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you're going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and by maintaining focus."
Oprah
What does this quotation mean?
How can you apply it every day?

Miss Ale,
From what I understood, the quote is showing us that to achieve an aim, we must be alert on what we want and wise when choosing how to use our energy to reach this goal. This can be applied in everyday life at any moment. The clearest example may be when we divide our time at home between studying and playing. Aiming our energy at certain school objectives and maintaining focused on them will allow us to have more time to play. But, this also applies to when we want to obtain any goal: working towards it steadily and focusing on achieving it will help us reach our aim. Procrastination and uncertainty in ourselves will only push us away from our goal.
See you all on Monday,

Hello Mrs Ale!!
I think that what this quotion meant was that: Every day we have certain amount of energy. The energy we have we must use it correctly not waste for nothing or for doing bad things like hitting someone. Example: if we are at school in language and we are talking about pronouns, there musn't be a group of boys talking about a football match, the boys must let that conversation for break. Every thing has it's own time to do it.

Hi Miss Ale,
I think that this quote means that each day you decide how and when to use your energy. If you use your energy at midnight by eating potatoe chips, your decision is not the correct one. You can use your energy as you want, but to achieve any goal you have or something you want you have to use your energy in a productive way to each day produce a little grain of sand for your aim to become true. You don't have to be lazy to reach a goal, because you will never reach it, and being positive is also one of the most important things for success. ENERGY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR ACHIEVING ANY GREAT OR NOT SO IMPORTANT GOAL. Let's all use well our energy and have a great life without pain!!!!!
See you,

Hello Miss Ale,
This means:
Every day we use things as to survive as: Food, water, light, etc
As to apply the care of all this things as to have them in our future and present. If we dont care about them we are going to die, but dont just die becoust we have to, only becouse we dont care about our living, THE EARTH.

Hi miss ale,
From what i understood is that energy is an important aspect in life and is important to learn how and witch is the bast way of using it.we use it in many differente ways and sometimes is hard for us to aplie them in the correct way needed, maby for nesessary things and chores as at home in school everywear. It also has to do with energy that earth has to live for many project such as light and tecnology it needs source of energy as ar body.For all this to keep on going and working for everyone we need to every single day choose well and always take in acount how to use it for progresive and realy nasessary things we need and organise how to spend it.

Hello Miss Ale
I think the quote means that what we are doing everyday is our desision that we can mold our future by doing things in the present, and that will change our future. And we have to start taking care of our energy and not waste it and we can start now in our present and try to achive what we are up to to change our future. This is something we should remember everyday...
KISSES!!! See you bye

Hello, I like that quote from Oprah. I agree with your students about what the quote means. We decide everyday what we are going to use our energy on and how we are going to reach our final goal.
Hi Miss Ale,
In my opinion this qoute is trying to show us that we have to use the energy in a responsible way without using it in a enourmos amount. I think that we have to focus in using the energy in a small amount and only in the thinks that we need.
Very good post, Bye Guido 6B
Hello Miss Ale!
You may interpret ate as to different points of view, one of them is that we have to take care of energy because we need to take care of t he Earth, and the other one is that each day we need to put energy in what we are doing like if you are in a math class you don't have to be studying for the science test that we have on the next period or while the teacher or a friend i talking star talking about what are you going to do on the weekend...

I belive this quotation means that energy is very important, and must be used wisely. This statement has made me realize that electricity is much like time, that once wasted it can never be recovered, so we must use it carefully and wisely.

Hello Miss Ale:
I think this quote is saying that if we want to reach what we want,we have to try many times until you reach to it. Energy is an important thing that can help you on life.

Hello Mis Ale
I think the quote means that energy is all that our lives are based upon. I think that everyday I use my energy to stay focused at school, for example, and I realise this is true because when I come back home Im tired..
Thats why I think that the solution is to be able to administer the energy in a correct way, balancing it between studying, playing, etc...

Heloo mis Ale
I think this is to show as that we have to save energy and electricity.
So that meens that we have to be more responsebles about electricity and energy.
bye miss ale
Hi Miss Ale
I think that puting this in the blog its show that we are we are spending power then it means we have to turn off lights more often.
Franca.G
Im not going to answer this question because today we disgussed in class about it and you told us what was the correct answer but now that I reflect, I think I would have said that the answer was a mixture of the 2 answers that many of the people posted. Maybe I would have said that it meant that you have to reflect of the energy you, a human body, spend in the electricit, by having the light off and things related to that.
Bye and keep on posting!

Hi Miss Ale!
I think that the quote meant that you use energy every day at every moment. You can decide how to use it every day. We can use it to play, to study, to talk, to achieve goals and even to draw. Your goal each day can be anything, anything that you want. Your goal can be to arrive early to school, to have no fights, to buy something and there are even more examples. I think that it is similar to say what I want to do that day. You use energy all wise without thinking about it. For example, when it is time to go to bed you have to measure that energy and low it down and let your brain sleep. You can have more energy in some moments than others. You use different quantity of energy for each thing or activity. Energy is what gives life; you can see it in different ways, if you have a life without energy your board all wise. We have to know how to use energy. All this is about the energy of the body, but when it comes to light, computers, television it is different. Every time that we press that button for power a lot of energy comes along. In "The City of Ember" that we are reading with Miss Alice they are running out of light, so it is all wise dark and scary.
In some way it connects with the other quote that you had posted some time ago, because when you put energy in something is because you want to me happy and to smile.
Keep posting quotes it is fun to read them.
By the way, good quote interesting that it is from the famous Oprah.

Miss Ale,
I wanted to tell you that I have just left a long comment and it doesnt appear.

I think that the enegy we have is the only that we have each day so i reccomend you to use it wisley because instead of wasting all your energy sitting on the computer and playing you are not using your energy wisle but for example you could some sports such as football, tennis, rugby ETC. that means using your energy wisle beacause you are helping your body.

HI!!!
I belive from what I understood the energy is like time if you wasr¡ted one minute in time you cant get it back and with electricity it is the same you wasted it tough luck.
It made me relaize how important it is

Hi miss ale,
I think this is very important, we have enrgy inside our body but it goes spending after you do physical things and your enrgy is very important also to be hot, if not you are cold, you start being ill so enrgy is very important.

Hello miss ale, I think this quotation means that we have to have energy every day so we can go far as the bloging challenge.
Ana
I think what she ment was that you have to put energy in to what you do every day.
harry 6a
Hello Miss Ale
I think that what yoy meant was that you have to do things without using the electricity so much.
My mother tells me all the time that I have to think what I want from the fridge before I open it because when I open it I use light and I walways use the desk light instead of the roof light, so I dont use a lot of energy.
