"Only those who live who do good." - Count Leo Tolstoy      There are many people in this world. However, only those who do good are the ones who are really living. If you are living life by doing bad things and making bad decisions, then you are going to have a miserable life and feel like you don't have a life or a reason to be alive.

It is better to live and no good than to live and do bad things that are only going to bring nothing but misery. Always be a ctr person, always chose the right because you will never regret it.

                                  STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT " What is right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right." - Albert Einstein      What is right does not depend on how popular it is. Popularity is always usually wrong because people think it's 'cool' to do the wrong thing. However, it is your decision to do what is right. Do not be afraid of what others have to say or think, you do you. For example, the 82 year old man he cut hair for the homeless every Wednesday. Joe didn't need to do it but he decided to do so anyways. He did not care if it was popular or not, he just cared about the homeless people getting their haircut. Another example is the dumb challenges on the internet. Most of the challenges that they invent are dumb, wrong, and harmful. These include of the Kyle Jenner challenge, the tide pod challenge, the clown pranks, and so much more. Instead of doing that people should make doing the right thing popular

                          A Choice: Poverty or Prosperity "I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that. It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it." - Dr. Ben Carson       Poverty is a temporary thing. If you want to become wealthy, it is up to you to change that. However, if you want to stay poor that is you decision as well. It can go either way, you can either be poor and become rich, or you can be rich and become poor.

For example, if you decide that you are not going to try in school and be lazy, then of course you are not going to become something in life.

"Even if everyone is doing it, wrong is never right."- Russell M. Nelson     They're many things in this world that everyone does but some of them are never right. For example, many people smoke, drink, sneak out, text and drive, and much more. All of those things are not correct and they never will be.

Always be a ctr person, good things will come to you and your life will be so good you won't even believe it.
