Student Success Statement - 5/24/2018

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 make sure you do what is best for you and if you need a break you take that break because mental health is as important as physical health.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement "Enthusiasm makes the difference." - Dr. Norman Vincent Peale I agree and partially disagree with this. I agree because it is true. Being enthusiastic makes a big difference in the way you see things. Being enthusiastic makes you excited for things and that can help your mental health cope and become happier. I partially disagree though, because sometimes people can not be enthusiastic because they may be depressed or have another mental illness that makes them not feel enthusiastic. I feel like being enthusiastic makes me feel good. This year, i decided to become more enthusiastic. Ever since then i have looked at the positive things in life. I have been doing this for several months now and i feel happy and i think that has really improved my grades. I enjoy coming to school because i am very enthusiastic about it and want to succeed.
