CONCLUSION

After doing the survey and analysis I calculated that the average a teenager 14-17, male and female included, spends on their hair everyday is 17 minutes.

In my project I surveyed 5 girls and 5 guys on how much time they spent on their hair everyday. The results ranged from 0 to 60 minutes at the most. When I analyzed the survey I realized that it was a huge difference between the time a female spends on her hair, and the time a male spends on his hair. The time males spend on their hair ranged anywhere from 0 to 30 minutes, and on the females it ranged anywhere from 0 to 60. So I can conclude form my survey that a male spends a lot less time on hair than a female does.

My hypothesis was not supported the average that a teenager 14-17, male and female included, was 17 minutes, not 60.

I learned that teenagers don’t spend as much time doing their hair everyday as I think.

Possible sources of error are the small sample size and the estimation of time from the people being surveyed.

            Stevie Wonder did it, as did many others like him. They all overcame obstacles placed before them. Now he is a very famous musician. Why, you ask? Better yet, how? He never gave up. He persevered through tremendous pressure and negative feedback. He experienced success, the negative and positive effects of it.

            I feel as if I have a connection with Stevie and those like him. My music ability only exists because of perseverance. Had I given up, I would not be the artist I am today. It is this principle that shapes my life. Every situation that a person is faced with can be looked at in the same way, Hold your head up, never give up.

            Overcoming the trials I endured to reach success, as a female, playing an instrument where most of the people who playing it are predominately male, have only made me want to be the best I came be more. The phrase is true when it says, “What does not kill you only makes you stronger.” When I look at who I am now, and who I was before, I see a difference. It’s two different me that I am looking that. Depending on my chances the second is often times better than the first.

            Growth of any kind is preceded by another event. Mental and psychological growth is quite the same. The process of maturity comes after the passing of time, and the occurrence of events that spark growth. Not all of these events will be negative. Positive time will appear and they bring more than moments of happiness. To be successful is one of there positive events. Success is important because it provides a positive way for people to grow.

            Success is a measurement taken by society and the person with whom the success is said to have fallen. More times than not, the person does not rate the success nearly as high as others.
