The Ultimate Choice

Of all choices you ever make, there is one choice that supersedes all others that will guide and help you in all your other choices. This one choice will help you always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate Choice, is the 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!!!! 

What this quote is trying to say is that you should be a CTR person, a person that always makes the correct decisions although everyone else is making the bad decision. By choosing to be a CTR person, it is more than likely that you life would change because you are now willing to make all the correct decisions and that will help you be a better person. There is nothing better than being the best person you can be. The choice of being a CTR person will guide you through life in the correct path so you won't make any bad mistakes that you could've prevented. Everyone should make that choice, not only because it will change your life as a person but it can influence other people to choose the right. When you are making the right decisions you will feel so good about yourself, so basically it will benefit you. 

Student Success Statement Thomas Carlyle

Student Success Statement 

"A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder."

Thomas Carlyle 

What this quote is trying to say is that if you don't set any goals, then where are you heading. If a ship doesn't have a rudder, the wind takes it wherever it wants to go. So if a man doesn't have a goal then he's not going to know what direction to go. When you set goals, you know what you're gonna do and what you're going to work on to achieve that goal. For example, when a person sets a goal to graduate then that person will work hard to achieve that goal. If a person doesn't set any goals then they themselves won't know where they are headed. These people without goals will just have to wait and see where life takes them. When they wait there is a big chance that they end being in a place or circumstance that they wouldn't like to be at. It's important to set goals so you can know what you want to do with your life and not be lost most of the time. Making goals will make it easier for you to run through your life because you know what you want. The ship needs a rudder just like you need goals. So you should make goals and you'll see that you will start achieving them and your life will make much more sense.

Student Success Statement Chinese Proverb

Student Success Statement 

Beautiful Character

"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 the world. 

Conclusion:

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

Chinese Proverb

Reflection: What this quote is trying to say is that if you have a good character then the world would be such a better place. To have a good character you have to be respectful to others, have a kind heart, and to always do what you're supposed to do. In other words always choose the right and don't get into trouble. If you and everyone has a good character then it will be more than obvious that the world would have peace and it will be way better for all of us. Why live in a world that is everything but peace? That world won't benefit us in any way, whatsoever. We live in this world to be happy and to have peace and if we can't have that then in what world do we live in. In order for there to be peace in the world we all have to improve our character. We all have to do something with ourselves to make the nation and our world safer and peaceful. 

The Six Pillars of Character

Character Counts

"The Six Pillars of Character"

List the Six Pillars:

-Trustworthiness

-Respect

-Responsibility

-Fairness

-Caring

-Citizenship

Describe each pillar and give an example: 

Trustworthiness means to always be honest and reliable. An example would be to never cheat.

Respect means to use good manners and be considerate of the feelings of others. An example may be to always be respectful to elders and help them when possible.

Responsibility means to always do what you're supposed to do, and to be on top of your things. An example would be to always find time to do your homework.

Fairness means to always take turns and share, play by the rules and always be open-minded to hear what others have to say. An example of this would be when playing a game, everyone should take turns to make everything fair.

Caring means to be kind, forgive others, and to help others when they're in need. An example of this would be to always assist your help although they might not need it in the moment.

Citizenship means to cooperate, volunteer, get involved with the community, protect the environment and etc. An example of this would be to help clean up in beaches or any other place.

                                 

Reflection: I think the Six Pillars of Character is a great way to show everyone how they're supposed to act, this will show them the benefits it has when you follow the six pillars. I think everyone should follow these pillars because it will better themselves in so many ways.

Student Success Statement Sophocles

Student Success Statement 

"I would prefer to fail with honor than win by cheating."

Sophocles

What this quote is trying to say is that it's always better to fail if you were going to win cheating. What's the point of winning if you cheated your way there. You basically failed because you weren't able to win honestly. You didn't even win because you weren't honest about it and you didn't try hard enough because you had to cheat. For example in a game, you really want to win but there is no way of winning at this point so you decide to cheat, that is not right. You had to cheat in order to win, so you shouldn't have won that title because you would've been known as the cheater. It's honestly better to fail with pride because you know that you tried your hardest and you can win any other time.I don't see a point in cheating because you have to lie to yourself and to everyone to the top.

Memorial Day

"Memorial Day"

What is Memorial Day? Memorial Day is a holiday in the United States which remembers all the the people who died serving for our country's armed forces.

What is the purpose of Memorial Day? The purpose of Memorial Day is to basically give thanks to all the the people who served and to remember them for fighting for our country.

When is it? Memorial Day is celebrated the last Monday of May and this year it will be May 25th. 

What are a few ways to show honor and respect on Memorial Day? A few ways to show honor and respect is to maybe have a moment of silence for them and by maybe attending some type of place that will be for the remembrance of all who served.


                           

I personally think that Memorial Day is a great holiday to celebrate for the simple fact that we are giving thanks to everyone who fought for our country. By having this holiday we are showing them that we appreciate everything that they did for our country. Not a lot of people know what the soldiers have done for us but they have done a lot to fight for our freedom. 
Some things I will do on Memorial Day to show honor and respect is that I will have a family dinner for them, in memory of them.
