Journal - After watching the short clip of Ashton Kutcher's acceptance speech what did you take away from his advice? What does this quote mean to you "Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you, and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use." 
What I took away from Ashton's speech was to not let other influence your life and your decisions. He talked about how being smart is an important trait to have and that you aren't just put in a world that is already been made by other people but to build you own world. He talks about taking opportunities and how it can be portrayed a lot like hard work. He says that because it takes hard work to come upon another opportunity. The quote "Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you, and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use." mean to me that you shouldn't be influenced by only others, but be an influence to others. The quote explains what it means to be a leader in a positive way.
