October Theme Day: Movement
City Daily Photo’s October theme is Movement, which can be tricky to photograph. Today we saw a small group of musicians today in a park. This flutist shows movement, maybe not as much as an athlete or dancer, but it counts.

Practicing for a Speech Contest
Today I coached some middle school students who’re going to recite one of President Obama’s speech. Each contestant is to recite these paragraphs:
Whatever you resolve to do, I want you to commit to it. I want you to really work at it.
I know that sometimes, you get the sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work — that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.
But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. You won’t click with every teacher. Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant to your life right this minute. And you won’t necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try.
That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures. JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was rejected twelve times before it was finally published. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
