ok, i created a simple object and placed it on a motion guide.  
let’s say, the start point is at the 12o’clock position and the end clock is at the 11 o’clock position. When i tween it, it will rotate counterclockwise on its own. How do i change it so the object rotates clockwise? thanks

The way an object rotates can defined in the “tweening” screen of the frame proporties.

If you double klick your layer (in the motion tween frames) and go to the tab " tweening" you can select the menu /option “rotate” and give in clockwise or counterclockwise.

I hope i helped you out with this
