Student Success Statement

''Dare to stand alone. Stand up for what is right, even if you stand alone.'' - Thomos S. Monson

I agree with this quote. Never let fear stop you from doing what you believe in. Standing out should not be something to have to worry about. Sometimes it is the true courage of standing alone that makes a difference. The ability to stand alone in a crowd of common thought is truley something powerful. For example, there have been many cases throughout hiistory that involve someone rebelling agaisnt the  common belief. While it is never the easiest thing to do, it was the right thing. People are afraid themselves, so by doing so you may inspire others. Do not be afraid to believe in what you know to be right. All it takes is courage.

''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.

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...
