Let me ask you a question, What is the most important thing in your life? Is it your PS5? Or the v-bucks you have in Fortnite? Is it the money you earn in your life? Well, guess what? It’s none of the above, it’s the people you meet in your life. Your family and friends and others are the most important thing to you. And if you say that they aren’t important, I have no idea how you’re living your life. We are going to plunge into that! Hello everyone my name is Abdul Jabbar the Motivational speaker in today’s motivational talk, we are going to talk about how your friends can shape your future.
“Show me your friends and I will show you your future”. What does that mean? I mean it’s saying you have to come to me and show me all your friends. Well, that’s Bob, that’s Jason… and so on. But I am not asking their names, I am asking about what they do for you and what you do with them. Are you going to their house every day and playing whatever video game you all play or doing some sort of invention with them? I want you to take a picture in your mind about what your goals are. Is it, trying to be the world's first trillionaire? Or is it trying to get 4 Maybach Exelero in your garage? Now keep that in your mind of whatever your goal is. Now think about what you do with your friends every single day. Now Just thinking about it for about a month's timeline. What did you do last month? The whole month of May. I can guarantee that about 98.97% of what you do with them has nothing, NOTHING, to do with your goals. I know that even though covid is around you are most likely not being able to contact your friends in person. But this also includes what you do online. On your iPhone or Samsung or PC. Life is short and you know it. All of us want to leave a mark on this planet. I don’t mean go to the store and buy the biggest sketch marker and write your name somewhere on the ground. I mean the mark on the planet that can impact others. Did you make a way to stop global warming? Did you do this or that? And so on. As I said before, when you grow up, your children, your family or even your grandchildren will ask you What did you do to help our community? Is there something you did to help others? Did you join these things that were going around now and before? Friends are the best things you can have. They have your back and you have theirs. You help each other, you support each other, you accept each other’s differences and likes. Life will be plain, not much can happen if people could not make friends with each other. Conflict will arise and the love will dropdown. If you want to keep going, you got to stop the negative thinkings, you got to stop thinking that failure is bad. Failure is great. You got to get a great dose of Failure and results will be a success.- Thank you
Okay let's see, we all go to sleep. We either have a good dream or a thing called a nightmare. A nightmare is something that really really really bad that happens mostly happens to kids. Like say for example I'm just sleeping, I’m a normal seven-year-old and this random thing came into my dream and then “AHHH!”, I just got scared then the next day if I still remember about that thing that would turn into a negative thought. I'll be thinking “oh my god I don't want this to happen!”. So that negative thought will keep on following me, I in my mind I wanted it to be erased, I don't want it to be here anymore, I want myself to forget it. But this negative thought can be something that affects me later on. So let's do this, everyone thinks of negative thought that you have been struggling with to erase. Let’s do this, just think of yourself going shopping in your mind, One Distraction trick is to visualize yourself in a grocery store that works for some people but if that doesn't work, just keep positive company. Or physically throw them away, For me, I just throw something and in my mind will think about that thing I just threw, then that negative thought will go away. But won't even work for some people! So many people just meditate or just do yoga and then they will calm down their stress level will go down so. Let's all do this once again think of any negative thoughts and then when you selected one just think of yourself in a very happy place there's many trees and the lake looks beautiful, just flowers next to you and the grass is good you're just laying under the shade and all the happy thoughts will come to you and it will make those bad thoughts go bye-bye okay. Today do the things when I said think of the negative thought and yourself in a good place then it has gone. Thank you
Cell phones being in the classroom have been the idea and conversation that many have had with each other. Students, parents, and teachers all have the same question. Are phones good to have in the classroom? We are going to take an intersection into that. Hello everyone! My name is Abdul Jabbar, the motivational speaker and in today’s video, we are going to talk about whether phones are good to have in the classroom.
Claim: Cell Phones should not be allowed in the classrooms for learning.
1st reason: Cyberbullying is more likely to start.
Evidence for reason 1:
Evidence for the reason why kids should not have phones in class because of cyberbullying. An article called “18 Cell Phones in the Classroom Pros and Cons” by Editor in Chief, states “ Cell phones open the possibility of cyberbullying.” “Having a cell phone in school increases the likelihood of bullying because of this access. Texts, voicemail, and online posts create new contact points which never existed before. When a bullying post is online, there’s a good chance it will stay there forever.” this sports the reason kids can be bullied if they have phones in class. 18 Cell Phones in the Classroom Pros and Cons
2nd reason: Students will start texting each other.
Evidence for 2nd reason:
Evidence for the reason why kids should not have phones in class because of texting. In an article called “18 Cell Phones in the Classroom Pros and Cons” by Editor in Chief, It states in “The use of a cell phone can be addicting to some students.” says “Cell phones offer kids access to social media platforms, talk, text, games, and much more. For some children, access to this tool is more than a distraction. It can become an addiction that impacts their learning potential and elements of their home life. 90% of teachers who have cell phones in the classroom say that the number of students with emotional challenges increased. Teens who spend 5 hours on a cell phone have a 71% higher risk of suicide compared to those who spend one hour per day. Even for eighth-graders, there is a 27% higher depression risk with social media use through a cell phone.” this supports the reason kids should not have the phone inside a class because of texting other kids. 18 Cell Phones in the Classroom Pros and Cons
3rd reason: Susicde might happen
Evidence for 3rd reason: Suicide
Evidence for the reason why kids should not have phones in class because of suicide, in an article called “ 12 Reasons Why Cell Phones Should Not Be Allowed in School” in “Could Lead to Suicide Tendencies” it states “ Unlike adults, children have a less-developed ability to control their impulses. What makes this even worse is the easy access to a plethora of information that is readily accessible at the tap of a finger. Sadly, cyberbullying has resulted in many school children taking their own lives due to peer pressure and bullying. Keeping that in mind, schools and parents need to come together to take a stand against the use of cellphones in schools to protect their children and promote their physical and psychological well-being in and outside the classroom.” this supports the reason why kids should not have phones in class because of suicide.
Evidence that supports the reason for If there is a fire, they can contact parents or other people. In the article “Should you let your kids have a cellphone in school?” by Edward. C. Braig, USA TODAY. In, “The case for allowing phones in class” it states “Safety concerns are also often given as a reason to let kids have devices at school. When there’s an accident or tragic incident, the presence of phones lets parents gets in touch with teachers and/or students.” Phones at school: Should kids be allowed to have them in class?
2nd reason: Research
Evidence for the reason why kids should have phones in class for research. In an article called “18 Cell Phones in the Classroom Pros and Cons”
Editor in Chief, states in “ Cell phones are fantastic research tools in the classroom” says “When students have access to a cell phone, they may have instant access to the data available on the Internet. Kids who are curious about specific subjects can perform research instantly from their desk, table, or assigned station. Teachers can encourage cell phone use in the classroom by assigning specific tasks to students too. By assigning students to groups, then using a cell phone brought by a student, this tool offers unique ways to learn that may help kids become passionate about their education.” this supports the one reason of research use of good classroom phone use. 18 Cell Phones in the Classroom Pros and Cons
3rd reason: Organization/Reminders
Evidence for the reason why kids should have phones in class for keeping tabs of their work and setting reminders, in an article called “6 Reasons Why Cell Phones Should Be Allowed in School” it states in “More Organized Students” says “Cell phones can help the students be more organized. Through the use of cell phone students can develop their plans in calendars. They can set alarms about their timetable towards leisure and study time. Through the use of cell phone students can create organized notes folders. They can read their books in free time with the help of e-books on the cell phone. Thus they can save their time and be more organized” supports the reason why students should have phones inside the classroom.
Evidence for the reason why kids should have phones in class because it’s more affordable than computers, in an article “ The 10 Reasons Why Cell Phones Should Be Allowed in School” it states in Cellphones Are Much Affordable Compared To Laptops” says “As of now, the current technology in mobile phones is almost like that of a laptop. With a smartphone, students can be able to do their research projects just like they would with a laptop. The phones are even far more convenient as they are much portable and remarkably affordable. If you visit many classes right now, you’ll be surprised to find all the kids has a cell phone of their own or at home. But a significant percentage has even never touched the keyboard of a desktop PC. So, allowing cellphones in school will help to enhance the learning techniques of students and much accessibly.” it supports the reason for its more affordable than computers.
Counterclaim: I know that people say that cell phones have helpful tools for students, But I believe that Cyberbullying is a very very bad thing that happens with phone use, which causes many things to happen with the victims, like suicide, etc. I think it much more preferable to not have phones in the classroom.
Conclusion: In conclusion, Cell Phones should not be allowed in the classrooms for learning. The reason why I think my side is right is that phones can be very very harmful to our society and can cause harm to other students. It can cause phone holders in class to have their phones are stolen or taken away, etc I think that it is better to no have any phones in class.
Bullying is a huge issue throughout the world. Kids get bullied, teens, and even adults! No matter the age, every age group has a person who has been bullied or is a bully. We need to show no tolerance to bullying when it happens. We need to show support to others who are getting bullied and even the people who are bullying. We need to know why the bully is bullying others. And we are going to take a headfirst dive into that. Hello! Everyone my name is abdul jabbar the motivational speaker in today’s video, we are going to talk about how to stop bullying.
All types of bullying -
Cyberbullying - Bullying online
Physical Bullying - In-person, like punching them and hurting them
Verbal Bullying - Say bad things about them, calling them names, etc
Social Bullying - With social media, like photos posted being made fun of repeatedly.
And so on
Bullying is something you should never do. It's aggressive behaviour towards others that can make them feel very uncomfortable or hurt. From both people, each can have lasting effects. As for the person being bullied, they are emotionally disturbed which creates low feelings for the person mentally. Some bullies start off by getting bullied or by jealousy towards something or someone.
Around the age of 7-8, kids tend to feel that they have some sort of “power” that makes them want to make others feel inferior to them. At this age level, every kid should be educated on no bullying and the effects their words and actions can be upon others.
Parents should be the first ones to educate their kids on this topic. Along with that, the school implemented an educational curriculum for the topic of bullying itself.
Some advice for parents/teachers/friends/ family, you can ask your kids or students about how their day was, what they did and just small conversations can make big differences. This can help open up the mindset of the kid.
For every 7 seconds, a child is being bullied somewhere around the world. So about every hour and 10 minutes, 2,400 kids are being bullied. So if you help others to understand that bullying is an issue to worry about around your community, it will help people stop bullying others and prevent people from doing suicide or any other harmful things to themselves because they are being bullied. It’s time for you to put that phone down, and take action in things that go around. Be part of a thing that you know will impact the hearts of others. If you don’t do anything or don't support anything and just be on your phone watching youtube or any other app, being lazy. When you grow up, your children or grandchildren, or even friends will ask you. What did you do to help our community? Is there something you did to help others? Did you join these things that were going around now and before? You need to be ready for them. I guarantee that once bullying stops, it can result in many benefits for you and others. Do something, change something, be an active member of the community.
Why is everyone concerned about CORONAVIRUS? I mean not everyone. Everyone should though. While some countries are strictly taking action such as complete lockdown, some still do not understand the seriousness of this virus as many are saying everything will be okay as summer is coming soon. Let's take a look at what is really happening now. Let’s say if in numbers, in the United States, we have 331 million people. Centers for Disease Control states say that out of these people, 40% - 70% of the people will get the infections.
For example: let's take 150 million people. Out of these people, 80% of the individuals will be totally fine. Only 20% of the people will be admitted to the hospital for treatment.
5% -10% of those people need a ventilator. How does the ventilator help? Well, it helps the lungs and the heart to rest. Since we don’t have a vaccine to cure coronavirus. Such a ventilator will help the body to become healthy again. Now, let's go back to the calculation, 150 million if 5% of the people need a ventilator that equals 7.5 million people who will be needing a ventilator. In the United States, if we have 150,000 ventilators. That’s kind of confusing. Let’s make it simple only 1 in 50 people will be able to get the ventilator.
What does that mean exactly? 49 out of 50 people will die from a lack of a ventilator. That is freaking me out. How about you guys? Aren’t you guys worried? Yes, everyone will be scared. So, who will be that lucky one, I mean that 1 person get the ventilator.
I mean what if people get responses from the doctor like since you are above 80 years, I believe I should give the ventilator to a patient who is 30 years old. Is that fair? I mean what is this? Let me rephrase this into a different question, please take it personally...I am just bringing up this question for everyone to understand what the situation really is.
So, in a family of 5 people, who will get the ventilator? Dad? Mom? Grandpa? Grandma? or you? I am raising this question now for you? But we all are heading to the situation where this exact situation will be questioned. We will be there soon. We are not gathering anywhere. We are not going out shopping. Colleges and schools are completely closed. Each individual should follow these self-protective measures.
Using Hand sanitisers very often, washing your hands, wearing gloves and masks.
Drink a lot of hot water. Add turmeric, onions, garlic, ginger, pepper, lemon to your foods daily. This will certainly increase your antibiotics. Hence, your chance of getting the virus will be reduced. Children are missing out on schools and colleges. Parents are not able to go to work. I can’t even explain what caused this virus to shut down.
Our President is saying we are ordering this many masks for our citizens. What is this mask gonna do for us?
I mean we cannot get the vaccine to cure CORONAVIRUS. But we have to take immediate action to control this. Please stay home. Let’s all work together and fight corona out of all nations. Please wash your hands and avoid contact with people. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. “We can MAKE AMERICA CORONAVIRUS FREE. Making America Great Again... We can MAKE ALL NATIONS GREAT AGAIN…. “CORONA FREE NATION….”
All of us could speak a language right? Obviously, all of us can, even my baby brother. He can speak a language called baby talk. I can speak two languages English and Fluent, Fluent Baby Talk. I'm better than you when it comes to talking like a baby right? I can understand what my baby brothers say and I can speak back to him and he can talk to me. We are just basically having a conversation and a language then not many people can understand right? You can’t even. Most adults don't know how to understand baby talk, the only words they know how to say are Googoo gaga, baa baa baa. Okay, A foreign language is a language not widely spoken and used by the people of a community/society/nation. For example, Spanish is a foreign language in Canada, that's a foreign language., It's just a small group of people. When I first came to America I thought that everyone in America only speaks English and everyone in China can speak only Chinese, but I learned that everybody could speak a language in America it can't be like that. Not everyone speaks English, people can speak many many languages like Chinese, Japanese, Urdu. I really wish there's an Antarctica language. Hmm, it can be confusing to have to speak Antarctica. Okay, a foreign language is something that all of us can learn, people like me want to learn a new language so we can talk to more people. People who are lazy, who just don't want to talk fluently to the person. They just say hey Google can you translate this? or get a friend of theirs who speaks English and another language or the language that you speak and another language another person speaks. Okay, There are roughly 6,500 spoken languages in the world today. However, about 2,000 of those languages have fewer than 1,000 speakers. The more languages you know, the more people you meet to actually have more conversations. Hospitals really need someone that can speak at least more than two languages because not many nurses or doctors can speak to the patient that can just usually speak their own language. If the patient knows how to speak that language or they can just use English. Most people use a translator or a nurse who can know more of the languages. Also if you know more languages it means you have a wide range of job opportunities because almost every company needs to have a translator who is a good speaker, who can translate and even talk in the same language. Say for example say I'm working in a company and my boss can speak only Chinese, for me I don't know how to speak Chinese so I get a friend who has a wide opportunity of jobs he will be translating my words to my boss then all that's good but once I learned that language I can have a more job opportunity, more money right? All of us should learn at least one or two languages right? Mostly English, baby talk. Yeah, all of you have to learn baby talk. Thank you.
