Final: Part1

          I liked a lot of things in this class it was very interesting. I liked that every day we learned something new. For example like in a student success statement. Or when we learned about new websites that can help us in the future. I did not dislike anything about this class. To improve this class we should lean more things about the computers or more websites we can use. Yes I did do my best in this class. Yes I am reading my life planning goals daily for two minutes, I just take some time to look through them. Yes I am committed to be a CTR  person because I want to do right things, and if you Ctr then good things will come your way. I will always remember to choose the right.  

Student Success Statement

“Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate Choice, is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is :

                     To be a CTR Person- to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!"

Reflection:

          I think this statement is great. I agree with this quote because if you always choose the right then good things will come your way and you achieve everything. If you choose the right then you are going down the perfect path that leads you to every goal and achieving every goal you have set for yourself. But if you choose the wrong then you will go down a dark and terrible path and will never accomplish nothing in life. Choosing the right is the light that will save you and help you all the way through your life. 

Student Success Statement

“ Success is not an accident. Success is actually a choice. Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have tomorrow?”

-Alan Stein

Reflection:

          I think this quote by Alan Stein is great. I completely agree with Alan Stein because, if you choose to be successful then you will become a successful person. If you chose to be a unsuccessful person and don’t try and give up then you will fail and that was your fault and not an “accident”. Every accident is made with intentions that you made and you can’t blame on something for your own doings. If you try hard enough and never give up then you will successful in life. 

Student Success Statement

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”

-Thomas Carlyle

Reflection:

        I think this quote by Thomas Carlyle is completely true. This statement is true because if you have no goal then you have no plans for the future and if you have no plans for the future then you are lost and have no where to go. Just like if a boat didn’t have a rudder then it would have no plans and you be lost and stranded because it has no direction. But if you do have a goal then you have plans to go either direction and make it to your goal. If a boat has a rudder than it has direction and can make it to its destination. If you set your goal then you will soon make it to your destination and keep on going just like a ship.   

Student Success Statement

“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 world.

Conclusion:

If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world.”

-Chinese Proverb

Reflection:

        I think that this quote by the Chinese proverb is outstanding. I also think more people should look at this statement and live by it because it teaches us a great lesson. You can’t make peace in the world unless you start small by making peace with yourself and then continue on and soon enough the peace will spread.

Student Success Statement

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.”

-Sophocles

Reflection:

          I think this quote by Sophocles is great. I completely agree with this statement because it is true because it is better to not win but you tried your best than not trying at all or even cheating and winning. For example if you are a professional basketball player and you take drugs to do better at the finals games and you win is horrible because you are playing a hardworking team and you win but still feel like a loser. But if you try hard enough and you lose its okay because by you losing you will get better at the game.
