"Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it." - William Penn Reflection: I believe that this quote is very true because no matter the situation, wrong is always wrong and right is always right. Let's say you're at a party with a bunch of your friends and they all start to get drunk and tell you to drink just don't do it because it isn't the right thing to do. Even if the majority of people do it, it isn't the right thing to do. Just get away from it if you can and if it gets too carried away where people are arguing just call your parents to pick you up because it may get worse then they might call the cops and start to arrest others because they are too young to be drinking. Or lets say they start to smoke and peer pressure you and they tell you its okay to smoke just say no it's not the right thing and that affect their health. If they keep pressuring you just walk away and go with people that don't do any of that. It can turn out way better for you if you avoid people that drink or do drugs.

"Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often." - Peter Vidmar Reflection: I strongly agree with this quote because you don't have to sacrifice the thing you most in life over some silly little thing. It's not really worth it at all because let's say you have to go to practice and your friends invite you to go eat with them. Just stop and think is it really worth it, is it really worth the thing you want to strive the most. Don't because it can lead to you getting kicked off the team and you'll regret it and you wish you had not had gone but it's too late. So don't put yourself in those situations where if you choose the wrong you'll regret it. Stop and think twice about what you want the most and desire in your life. Don't put it at risk, it will eventually lead to hate and sadness. You have to stay focused on what you want the most and don't lose focus. Always ask to see how you can achieve your goal and the steps you need to take to get where you want to go and/ or what you want to do and keep persuing it no matter what the situations is.
"A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life." - Mike Krzyzewski (Coach K) Reflection: I think that this quote is very true because you want to have a good reputation. I would rather be known as the trustworthy and friendly kind of person rather than a mean choosing the wrong type of person. When people hear my name I want them to say that I’m a cool guy and am really responsible. Making your name is rather more important than actually being rich. I can help with life. It can make you, as an individual more at peace with yourself rather than being cruel, old, and bitter. I believe that it take you farther in what you want to do in the future because let’s say that you’re going to a interview and you are known as a bad person people that work there might say bad stuff that you’ve done and most likely you won’t get the job, but if you’re known for being an honest and responsible person people might say good thing about you and you have a greater chance of actually getting the job. It can help you so much in life.
"If your so-called friends urge you to do anything you know to be wrong, you be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone. Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow." - Thomas S. Monson Reflection: This quote by Thomas S. Monson is very true because you have to stand up for what is right no matter what, even if you're the only one. As longs as if you know what is right and while the majority believes in the wrong thing, you as an individual are choosing the right. That's the only thing that matters is that you believe in choosing the right while others choose the wrong.
" A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself." - Noemi Trigueros Reflection: This quote is very true because to be a CTR champion you have to be the best of yourself. That basically means be the best version of yourself in all ways. Whether is it physical, mental, or emotionally. You always want to strive to be great. No matter what it is or how hard it might be. You must always strive to be the best of yourself. Which also means to be true to yourself and do what you like to do and believe in what you believe in. Don't be a follower, but a leader. Don't smoke because the cool kids do it or because you want to be popular because in a couple years or so you won't even know they existed and none of that would have mattered. Don't follow the crown, lead the crowd. Always choose the right no matter what it is.
"Goal setting is goal getting, Set and get." -Mark Victor Hansen Reflection: I agree with this quote 100 percent because you need to know what you want to get in life and those are your goals. In order for you to reach your goals you first need to know what the goals is whether to lose weight or read everyday you need to know because that is how you are going to get started and without the goal you won't know what to do or where to go because you have made a goal. After you make a goal you need to know what are some ways that can help you get there. You also have to stay committed to achieving your goals no matter what. You have to have the right mindset. Being able to say that you can and will achieve those goals no matter what. If you surround yourself with people that are negative then you yourself won't go as far but if you surround yourself with people who are supportive on anything you do it can help you so much. You can't doubt yourself. You need to always try because even if you fail you can say that you tried rather than I wish that I had tried. "When obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer an irritation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block." -James E. Faust Reflection: This statement is very true because when you make obedience your priority then it will help you in life and make it so much easier on your everyday life. It will not make you miserable but make you be a wonderful person. Obedience is the greatest thing you can ever learn in your life it will make you responsible as an individual. If you choose obedience over choosing the wrong you will never get in trouble with the laws because you are obeying the laws and you won't have any problems with the police because you were following the rules. It will make you mature because if you are in school and the teacher says that the assignment is due tomorrow and you do the assignment and turn it in on time the teacher will know that you are doing as told and listening to her and handling business and aren't in the class to fool around but to actually learn something. Obedience will get you far in life if you always and I mean always choose the right.
"We learn to do by doing." -Spencer W. Kimball Reflection: This statement is very true because in order for you to get better you first need to do it like not just say that you're going to do it but actually go out and do it. You won't learn if you don't try even if you make mistakes while doing the thing you want to do. You have to be curious and try new things and keep practicing if you want to be better. Whether if it's baseball and you want to have more accuracy you need to practice and do special drills that might improve your throwing or even if it is batting just go to the batting cages to help make contact and then hit in to a net and maybe even ask a friend to pitch some to you so you know what it might feel like during a game. You just need to do it
