Failure(6V)

Failure 

• Lack of success 
• omission of expected required action

I think failure can be a good thing in a way.  If someone fails at something then it could make them stronger and teach them a lesson.  I have failed at many things in my life and it only made me stronger and a better person.  It taught me how to motivate myself to make sure I did better the next time around with whatever situation I was in.  Some people are taught that failure never can be tolerated and that it will automatically make you a bad person.  Turns out, failure can actually make YOU the better person.  I believe that failure leads to a person being more successful.

Other Vocab Words

  Success

• achievement, something desired
• gain of fame or prosperity 

Now that I am in college, the only thing I want to do is be successful.  I believe that if you put you mind to it that anybody can be successful.  It's the way you perform your work.  If you give 100% in your work and take the time to study, read, and write your papers, there is no way that you can't be successful.

Connotation 

• an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal or primary meaning.

This vocab word I learned in my media class this week.  At first I didn't understand this word completely, but as the class went on I came to the full understanding.   We learned to study the connotation of images, words or sayings.  Ex: exploring ads and explaining what they mean.
