Student Success Statement "Do what you want and what is right for you because in the end you only have yourself."                                                                                                                                  - Marisela Gonzalez  This quote to me, means to do what you want and go into the career YOU want. The only person you need to satisfy is yourself because you will have to live that life for the rest of your life. This quote does not only apply to careers. It also goes for the people you choose to hang out with. Although i said do what you want you also have to look after yourself. The only person that will only ever know you for who you truly are is yourself so you have to take care of yourself, enjoy yourself, and be responsible for everything that you do. Life is hard and it is especially hard when you have people putting pressure on you. Highschool, for example, is a time where everyone is going to feel stressed. You need to

Character If there is beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home,  there will be order in the nation. if there is order in the nation,  there will be peace in the world. Conclusion: If there is beauty in character, there will peace in the world. I agree with this quote. I agree with it because in this day in age we don't see much peace and harmony, there are shootings and killings that are extremely unnecessary. I believe that when they talk about beauty in this quote they mean internally. Beauty can mean several things, like choosing the right, being kind, being smart, being respectful, and responsible. I really like this quote because it puts everything in much simpler words, but in reality it is much harder for the world to gain world peace due to the inequalities some people are just not willing to put down. I think this world needs much more peace, as of right now for some people it seems we dont even have

there is others way to recover from something hurtful. it is  not always easyto forgive and to just put it in a sentance like that is dumb because they over simplify. it is not like you suddenly tell your brain that its time to stop being mad at whatever and just forgive them. it takes time and it is not always easy. also the example was dumb because we all know, well people with actual knowledge of the harsh realities, tha if this person were black or any other race but white he would have never been able to get out that soon.. he might of not even been able to get out. this guy was privledged because he killed two people and got out after 11 years? that is like 5 and a half years for rach of the girls he murdered. he talks about how bad drinking and driving is but maybe he should have taken his own advice. the amount of years the girls had left are nothing compared to the 11 years he served in jail. it is also kinda weird that the mother said he was sorry for him but never in the v

Eight Great Reasons to Tell the Truth  Barbara A Lewis Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.  Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than lying (and getting caught) Other people trust you more when you tell the truth. You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight You gain a reputation from being truthful - a trait most people value Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside. All of these reasons are true in most cases. Honestly, if you have good values and were told at a young age that lying was wrong then you would not need to be reminded. I noticed number 2 talks about being honest about things to not harm the innocent and I think that is really important because  of al

"I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating." - Sophicles  This quote is a quote that quotes that it is better to lose  honestly than win dishonestly. I think that this quote is true, but how do we know if Sophicles actually said this? I often wonder about that with some of the quotes. This quote can be talking about almost anything, it could be talking about a race, a baseball game, basketball, a horse race, or a wrestling match. This quote can be used even when not talking about a sport or competition. The simple act of doing a test or your homework has opportunities to cheat because cheating can be done at any time and in any way. The idea that winning is the most important thing is false, the most important thing is being honest and letting the person that is truly the best, be the best and win without using things to enhance their performance. This quote demonstrates havign good values and how to accept that sometimes we dont win, but if we were hones

" If I've got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing, I'm going to succeed." - Dan Dierdorf I think this quote means that if you know what you want in life and are determined, you will succeed and continue to strive for greatness. I agree with this quote because when you are focused on doing something bad nothing good will ever come out of it. When you know what goals you want and are going to make a positive impact on your life, the steps you take to complete the goal will lead you to do the right thing. Everythign in ife has an outcome so might as well do something good so the outcome could also be good. Life is full of ups and downs so it is almsot impossible to do good ALL the time but it is important to learn from your mistakes.

Student Success STatement - 5/4/2018

  "The most important thing you will ever have is good values." - Dennis Prager   Reflection:  I think this quote is true. For some people, they may not realize how true this is until they are faced with a situation where they have to put their values in front of their feelings. Although some may argue that there is better things in life than simple values they don't understand what this quote is truly saying. I agree with this quote because when I am faced with a difficult situation I always choose my values instead of my feelings, because my feelings will always want to do the right thing for myself and that is not always  the best thing to do.

"The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self esteem" - Dr. Laura Schlessinger  I really think this quote depends on who you are, for some people that have big platforms they recieve more than just internal phenomenon. I  think that for some people when saying something honest it does not always help you gain a greater self esteem. I feel as though this quote is just another thing that can be true to some people but others doing something good i sjust another thing they are used to doing. Not all phenomenons need to be celebrated, because some poeple do good all the time so it is someting they ar e used to doing.
