CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
Student Success Statement
"Your worth consists in what you are and not in what you have."
Thomas Edison, Inventor
This means that you can have everything you want and not be worth much. You can be a billionaire and be tremendously wealthy but have no worth if you got all that by fraud and lying. You can have nothing at all and still be worth than alot of the people put there. Your material belongings are not what make you worth alot. It is the type of person you are that makes you be worth something.

"I think it better to do right, even if we suffer in so doing that to incur the reproach of our consciences." 

Robert E. Lee

Doing the right may hurt you a little bit. It means that you'll have to suffer sometimes.This means that you should choose the right at all times. For example, if someone is trying to get you to do drugs, smoke, or even drink, you should be smart enough to walk away or deny their offer. If you choose right over wrong, you will feel good about yourself. But if you do accept their offer, you will feel bad about yourself and feel guilty too. You should choose the right because you are aware of how these substances harm you and how bad they are for you. When you do the right thing you will feel good about yourself. For example if you do what is expected before they tell you, you will feel good that you did what you were supposed to and you might even get a praise. When you do the bad thing you will feel bad about yourself. For example, if you don't do your homework then you will suffer the consequences and feel bad about yourself.

"Tell me what is right and I will fight for it." 

Woodrow Wilson

I think this quote is trying to say that if you tell him what is right he will stand up for it and fight for it. He will fight off the wrong and stand up to what is right. He also means that he won't let the wrong get in the way even if its the better thing to do. For example, if someone is being bullied because of race and you know it's wrong you should do something about it and stand up for it. Because racism is bad and if you ignore the problem, it will only continue to happen.

"The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is true test of  moral character."

Margaret Chase Smith 

This means that the right way to go won't always be fun, easy, or popular. But no matter how embarrassing or shameful it is it is the best and right thing to do. If you do choose the right you will feel better and won't suffer the consequences. For example if you know someone is being threatened or treated bad in  school you might want to tell a teacher but are afraid of getting called a snitch. This is why after all the embarrassing stuff passes, you will feel good that you choose the right and chose the right thing to do. 

Student Success Statement

"Every time I've done something that doesn't feel right, it's ended up not being right."

Mario Cuomo

This means that when you feel something wrong its because your doing something wrong, For example, if you are being pressured into doing drugs or anything like that but you feel bad about it and still do it, you are choosing the wrong. You will feel horrible and guilty. Your mind feels when you do something right and when you do something wrong. When you are aware that you are choosing the wrong you will feel bad and guilty. When you choose the right, you will feel good about yourself. 

Student Success Statement 

''Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me."

Carol Burnett

I think this means that only you can make a change for yourself. It means that whatever I do either it good or bad I can only change what I did. If you do bad things you are the only one who can change that mistake no else can. If a drug addict want to stop doing drugs, only he can make the choice. Only he can send himself to rehab.

"When I good, I feel good.

When I do bad, I feel bad."

Abraham Lincoln

When you do the right thing you will feel good about yourself. For example if you do what is expected before they tell you, you will feel good that you did what you were supposed to and you might even get a praise. When you do the bad thing you will feel bad about yourself. For example, if you don't do your homework then you will suffer the consequences and feel bad about yourself. 

Student Success Statement 

"I shall pass through this life but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness I can show, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it; for I shall never pass this way again."

ANON

Choose the right always because you wont ever be in the same situation again. It means that you should always do the right thing because you may never know if you are put in that situation again. Once you skip an act of kindness you can never go back to it again. For example, if you see a homeless person on the street you should help them out right then and there because you never know if you'll see that particular person ever again.

Student Success Statement

"You have only always to do what is right. It will become easier by practice, and you enjoy in the midst of your trials the pleasure of an approving conscience."

Robert E. Lee

I think this statement means that once you practice doing what is right it will become a life long habit and you will probably never worry about doing wrong things. once you do the right thing you will feel better about yourself and if you do the wrong thing your conscience will continue making you feel guilty.

STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

"To know what is right and not to do it is the worst cowardice."

Confucius 

I think this means that if you know what is right and you decide to not do it when you are capable of doing it, then you really are a coward. If you decide to do whats wrong when it is so easy to do the right then you really don't deserve much. You should always do the right thing despite if its hard or not. For example, if someone offers you to do something bad like steal, or do drugs or anything wrong then you shouldn't do it because it is so easy to avoid problems and just say no. 

Student Success Statement

"Always do right."

Mark Twain

I think this quote means that you should always do the right and choose the right path. When you are put in a difficult situation always do the thing you choose to be right. For example if anyone ever tries to pressure you into doing something like drugs, then you should know whats right and stay away. Doing the right thing will make you feel good about yourself and you will feel better than if you had actually done it.

Student Success Statement

"Success is simple. Do what's right, the right way, at the right time."

Arnold H. Glasgow

This means that you should always do what is expected of you and you shouldn't go fooling around and also that you should do it right when you are told. For example, to succeed in your class, do what the teacher tells you to do like homework or classwork, put thought into it and don't just write anything to rush through it, and do it when it is assigned or due. This means that you should always do things correctly when they are expected of you, do it on time, and surely you will be rewarded. Don't do things at an inappropriate time, don't do around doing whats wrong because you will suffer the consequences of it.

Student Success Statement

 "We need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do."

Richard L. Evans

Reflection: I think this means that we should always recognize what we are doing wrong and stop it as soon as we are aware of what we are doing. We should also know the right path for us and continue going in that direction regardless of how challenging it is.
