Student Success Statement 
"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you know where the goalposts are" - Arnold H. Glasgow

  
believe this statement is very true. It's not literally saying life is like football but figuratively it is. And i feel like it's a very good way to put it cause it makes sense. Just like in football there are goalposts, and just like in life there are goals that we also have and want to accomplish. It may just be a short term goal or a long term goal, it doesn't matter as long as you try your best to achieve it.For example, one of my goals is to pass all my classes in each of the grading periods now that is a short term, and a long term would be me wanting to attend college. A good way to live your life is to set goals and actually achieve them for a better life.

Student Success Statement  "Great beauty, great strength, and great riches, are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds it all." -  Benjamin Franklin What this statement means to me in my own words is no matter how 'beautiful' you are or how much money you have, if you don't have a good heart it doesn't matter. Having a bad heart makes you an ugly person. There are so many people who have very good and kind hearts rather than other people who just don't care about you and your feelings or sometimes even themselves.

Student Success Statement  "Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn't.  In addition,using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don't do it. - George Mitchell  I agree with this statement. I believe that cheating your way into something is very wrong and it should never be done. But many people don't realize that it can really affect them in the long term. There are many ways in which people cheat. People cheat on their tests, in their sports, on their partners. See there are many ways in which people cheat and it is not right at all. I think when people cheat they only think about the present and not the future. I wouldn't be able to ever cheat on anything. Doing the wrong will bring you many consequences in your life.

Student Success Statement "When a deep injury is done to us, we never recover until we forgive."-Alan Paton I think i agree and partly disagree with this statement. I do believe that we should forgive people for what they've done to us but to a certain limit. For example like the video shown today in class, i don't think i would've forgave someone for killing my daughter. Even if it wasn't intentionally, they still did it. Although I also think surely it's important to forgive someone so you can heal emotionally and possibly physically. Sometimes we make several mistakes and hurt people even if it's not physical it can also be emotionally.
