Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self- esteem.” -Dr. Laura Schelessinger


This shows that you don’t need to choose the right things for others. If you are choosing the right you do it for yourself. When you do something because you know it's right it doesn't matter what other people think. You know that you're doing good and you know that this is the right thing. For example, let's say i'm playing a volleyball game. The ball is served and it hits the line, but since everyone thought it was out i have two choices. My choices are let them take the fall and get the point or play fair and give them back their ball. I would go with the second choice. Not everyone will agree but it doesn't matter. If we win then we know it's because we are better not because we are cheaters.

Student Success Statement (19 Sentences )

Don't do it, Don't say it
Student Success Statement

"If it is not right, do not do it: if it is not true, do not say it."  -Marcus Aurelius 

                                                                                                          
           I believe this Quote is trying to inspire us into doing the right thing. I believe Marcus wants us to make the right choices because so many people have made bad choices. I also believe he wants us to be honest at all time.

          Honesty is the key to many things. For example, If you steal or or lie is that being honest? No. When you lie you not only lie to another but you lie to yourself. In some cases a person might lie so much and so good that they start to believe their own lies. If I we're to lie to my parent and get caught i could lose so much. Many people could lose so much. If you lie to your boss, you can lose you job. If you lie to your doctor you might lose your life. And If you lie to your family you might not have anything left.

          Its all about being a good person. Someone who is nice to others. Some people can't lie at all because they know better and for others that all they do. If you don't do the right think and spread words that aren't true you'll be left with nothing. Especially if the lie is so big its unforgivable. In that case you can no chance to redeem yourself.
