STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

'' Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company.'' - George Washington

This quote is something I agree with. It speaks truth when it comes to which crowd is the better option to hang around. It is better to be alone than around others who will force you to take bad actions. Always choose people you know will respect your opinions. If they force you to do bad things, then they are not worth hanging around with. The best reputation is that of a clean reputation. If you have been force into a bad reputation, it will not appeal. Associate yourself with those of good qualities. If they will improve you, they are worth it. Improve as a whole, do not take any negative actions because there will be consequences. For example, if you start hanging around a crowd that like to disrespect others , then you will not benefit the situation. If you hang around crowds that follow their morals and have good standards, then they are worth hanging on too. Always be cautious and wary of those you associate yourself with. They reflect you and you reflect them. Make sure the reflections are not bad images.

''The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity, (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem.'' - Dr. Laura Shlessinger This quote is true. Usually when doing something that is right you never really get a physical reward. The satisfaction is internal since you yourself commited the act. At times there might not be any witnesses. Physical recognition comes for other reasons. When you acknowledge those factors, right truly will feel like a phenomenon. The feeling you get when doing right is like no other. That is the only feeling apart from all others. That sense of well being will not be caused by any thing else. Reward over moral is a great prize.

STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

'' I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it.'' - Dr. Ben Carson I do not really agree with this statement. While it mat be true that poverty can eventually be overcome, many out there do work hard and give it their all at what they do yet they still do not escape. There are two ways to work hard at something. Sometimes you get what you want, other times things remain the same. This quote can not always be held true. There is a key element that breaks this from being true, education. You can work hard all you want but not go far because of lack of an education. Without education your efforts will mean nothing. Education can be in many forms. Education is the real key to success, without it efforts will not do much good. At times poverty is not a choice, lack of education will forever hold a family down. While some may be lucky to mov...
