“Try a little harder to be a little better”

Gordon B. Hinckley

This statement is true because when you try harder to get more work done or whatever you’re trying harder for, it will pay off. Think about it this way, if its Friday night and you’re up till midnight doing homework and you complete it, you won’t have homework for the weekend.  This applies to anything; if you try harder to reach your goals then you will feel better when you reach them.

“If you want to achieve excellence, you can get there today. As of this second, quit doing less-than-excellent work.”

Thomas J Watson

 

If you want to achieve greatness then you need to start doing great work because you don’t get it by doing nothing.

Always remember, all good comes from better work and much more effort.

Student Success Statement

“It’s not the will to win but, the will to prepare to win that makes the difference.”

Paul Bear Bryant

This quote is true because you can’t just win automatically, you need to plan and prepare. It takes a lot to reach goals, sometimes, but when you conquer all the problems that’s when you really win and that’s when you become a champion. Champions are not formed over night it takes a lot of perseverance and dedication the only difference from them and regular people is that they are willing to do it all.
