Student Success Statement

 "Attitude is the mind's paintbrush. it can color any situation."
-ANON

I agree with this statement. I believe that we can make almost any situation positive or negative depending on how we want it to be. if we think of something in a negative way, then most likely we are going to take this event negatively. if you think positive, then it will be positive.

Attitude

Attitude

I believe the word attitude is a word to describe a person's mood towards different situations. An example of attitude would be if someone were to ask you a question, and you are responding in a bad manner, or a rude tone. A good attitude would be smiling and answering the question as politely as possible.


SYNONYMS: Character, Mindset, Opinion, Temper, Reaction, Belief, Approach, perspective, Point of View, Bias.

I agree with this statement, I also believe that the people you spend your time with tend to have a big influence in to the person you are today. most likely if your friends are into smoking, or ditching, they might try and enforce these types of things onto you.

Student Success Statement

"Man's rise or fall, success or failure, happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude... man's attitude will create the situation he imagines."

I believe that this quote is saying that the attitude we make brings different outcomes in our lives. lets say you look at the world in a negative way, and treat everything and everyone also in a negative way. then you will achieve nothing but failures. if you were to approach the world in a positive way, it would take you a step closer towards success.
