Student Success Statement

“Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it.”

William Penn

 

You always have to do right, at all times. The quote clearly says that the right, at times might seem wrong but it has to be done. As well as the wrong might seem right but it shouldn’t be done. Doing right might hurt others or us but it’s better to hurt in the beginning rather than later and for it to be worst.

Student success Statement

“Cowardice asks the question - is it safe?
Expediency asks the question - is it politic?
Vanity asks the question - is it popular?
But conscience asks the question - is it right?
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because it is right.”

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

 

This quote is true because sometimes we do stuff just to follow the crowd or sometimes we don’t do stuff because we’re scared. We should always do right no matter what because that’s what’s supposed to be done. No matter how scared you are or how impossible it might seem do it, at the end of the day you won’t regret it.

The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon:

Self-respect, dignity, integrity, and self-esteem.

Dr. Laura Schlessinger

 

This statement is true because you shouldn’t have to get something out of doing what’s right the fact that you did it should be rewarding itself.

I know that when I do something to help my parents I feel like a good person and I don’t ask for a reward and that’s what makes it good.

“Right is right only when entire.”

Victor Hugo

 

This statement is true because doing right is the right thing to do all the time. Sometimes doing the right thing might seem like its bad but at the end of the day it’s supposed to be done. I know that a couple of cases I had to choose and it was both bad and right but at the end of the day I chose the right because that’s the best thing to do.

Student Success Statement

“That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do has increased.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you try hard on all of your work than you will be successful because remember that a professional was once a beginner they just chose to put in the extra practice. If you want to be someone professional at a certain activity then don’t hold back, work hard, practice harder and you will accomplish.

“Your worth consists in what you are and not in what you have.”

Thomas Edison, Inventor

 

This statement is true because everything you do can say a lot about who you are. Why would you want to have all the money in the world and not be liked by anyone? Someone with a nice and caring heart is more valuable than someone who does bad and only cares about themselves.  Be someone that sets an example for someone else, if everyone did this the world would be a better place.

When You Tell One Lie

Paul Hatch

 

When you tell one lie, it leads to another

So you tell two lies to cover each other

Then you tell three lies and, Oh Brother,

You’re in trouble up to your ears!

 

So you tell four lies to try to protect you

Then you tell five lies so folks won’t suspect you

Then you tell six lies and you’ll collect

A life filled with worries and fears

 

‘Cause you can’t remember how many lies you’ve told

And half the things you say aren’t true

And sometimes you’ll slip up, you’ll trip up and then

Whatever will become of you?

 

So you lie and lie without even trying

And each lie you tell will keep multiplying

‘Till the whole wide world will know you’re lying

Then you’ll be

Suspected

Detected

Rejected

Neglected

Disliked

And you should!

When you lie, you’re closing the door

On everything good

 

Student Success Statement

“The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in DETERMINATION.”

Tommy Lasorda

 

This statement is true because you may think that it is impossible but if you start to fill in the missing pieces you’ll see that it may be hard but not impossible. No goal is impossible if you really want it. Anything in life is achievable when you set your mind to eat. Lets say you want to get straight A's, if you do all your work and try hard, you will get it done. When you really want something you got to want it more than your next breath, eventually, it’ll be yours.

This statement is true because you should always follow your dreams. No matter how hard they seem you should stay in the pathway to following them and reaching them.
