“Don't wait around for other people to be happy for you. Any happiness you get you've got to make yourself.”

            How these very words are true. We life this quote every second, minutes, hour, or day. No matter how we get we always have always had to work hard to get what we wanted. No matter if is for sports like you are a hard working high school student trying to a scholarship into a division 1 college or education like a college student trying to get their masters degree. This can all go for same things like life, love, money. But all those things that we all want in life all fall into our chase for the pursuit of happiness. Some people’s thoughts on the pursuit of happiness are it means to live your life in a manner that you believe will lead you to happiness, to be detached from desires, or something as simple as doing your thing. Throughout history people have chased their dreams no matter if it had selfish gains or intentions or the intent to help others to reach their goals in life.

"All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better."

            This a simple quote that we all can relate too. It is simple, something that we all can relate too, and most importantly it is unique. I personally think is a personal experiment and the more you try, the better. The scientific method is explained by a method of research in which a problem is identified, relevant data are gathered, a hypothesis is formulated from these data, and the hypothesis is empirically tested. A hypothesis is a proposition, or set of propositions, set forth as an explanation for the occurrence of some specified group of phenomena, either asserted merely as a provisional conjecture to guide investigation or accepted as highly probable in the light of established facts.
Life experience are nothing but trial and error, we learn from our personal mistakes and sometimes from others mistakes. These mistakes, our ideas, questions, thoughts start off as experiments and we test them multiple times it maybe even once to find the needed results that would satisfy us. Now not all experiments turn out bad but for some they do. Here’s an example with good results: Benjamin Franklin tested if metal could attract electricity and turned out to be true. This gave us the lightning rods.
An example of an experiment with bad results: The Vanguard Rocket Explosion which a experiment that led the explosion of American rocket before liftoff. These two experiments were just two out of billions scientific experiments in history with different results. As humans we are always wondering and questioning everything imaginable. We are always hungry for knowledge e starves because of our curiosities. We want to know it all and when I mean it, I meant it.
