Student Success Statement
"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company." -George Washington Reflection: I think that this quote is very true because when you hang out with positive people and people that want to be successful, they would also push and get you to where you want to be. If you hang out with people that like to just party and do not like to do any work and have no life goals then you will be just like them. That isn't what you want in life. You want to fly with the eagles in stead of being on the floor like chickens. You should want more for yourself and should not stop once you achieve one goal, you should achieve a lot more goals. Its something you can do just by hanging out with the right crowd vs the wrong crowd.

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you know where the goalpost are" - Arnold H. Glasgow Reflection: What this quote is trying to say is that in order to achieve a goal you need to know what the goal is. You need to be able to guide yourself and find others to help you achieve your goal. You can achieve your goal by working hard and by not doing any type of shortcuts or ways to cheat to get you there quickly while being lazy. You need to be able to do it without cheating but you can find some help on the way to guide you into success. Without a goal in life you are not going to know what you are going to do. Therefore you need to know where and what the goal is and see what is going to help you get their. It does not matter how big or how small the goal is. As long as you get their honestly with out shortcuts. My goal for right now in high school is to graduate and go to college and maintain a 3.5 GPA. I am working hard and honestly which makes me feel more proud rather than coping other peoples work I do my work and actually study for test which I am most proud of.
"Right is right only when entire." -Victor Hugo Reflection: I think this is correct because when you tell the truth it has to be all of it not just parts of it. In order for it to be 100% truth you have to say everything. You have to be honest all the time and make sure that you tell everything. An example would be if you tell your mom that you are going to your friends house to do homework and a project and she tells you to be home by 9 and you say okay and then you do go to your friends house and do the homework and then you have a little bit of time so you go eat at tams. Then on your way back some adults are in a bar and calling you over to have a drink and you do drink but then you have a head ache do to the alcohol. Then you go back home and then tell your mom everything that happened but the part of you drinking alcohol is not true. Yet you are telling the truth about the other things which is good but then you do not mention going to the bar then that is what stops it from being a lie and that is not something you want to be proud of and should not be allowed and if you do that then you should feel guilty.
"Only those live that do right" - Count Leo Tolstoy Those that do good are really living in this world.
"The best way to predict your future is to create it.' - Charles Ketterer Reflection: I feel that this quote is 10000% true because if you want to have a good future then you should go on the right path to make it true. You have stop saying to yourself that you will not have a good future and start saying that you are going to make your future. I think to start is to start choosing the right. No matter what you have to always do whats right and not do whats wrong. When you do that then you start to become more happy and more at peace with yourself. You also need to hang out with the right people. The ones that are honest and do not lie and that do not to drugs or drink alcoholic beverages. Then if you do hang out with them then you will end up being just like them. Would you rather soar in the air with the eagles and be able to fly any where or be with the chickens and not have much freedom. You need to start doing things on time and do not wait last minute to do something because if you do then you will become lazy and then it will become a bad habit.
"Only those live who do good." - Counter Leo Tolstoy Reflection: I agree with this quote 100% because in order to actually live you need to do good and by doing you become happier and end up spreading positive vibes all around you. Then who ever you spread it to ends up becoming happy and then they spread their positive vibes to others and it just does not stop. You are really living if you do this.
