Student Success Statement

"Your worth consists in what you are and not in what you have."
-Thomas Edison

I agree with this statement by Thomas Edison. I say I agree, because I have the same thoughts on this idea. people are worth the good they have done, rather than the good stuff they may own. you may own everything you could possibly imagine, but what's so good about it if you had to do bad things to receive these items. instead we should be judged by the good we have done.

When You Tell One Lie -Paul Hatch

When You Tell One Lie

-Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie, it leads to another
So you tell two lies to cover each other
Then you tell three lies and, Oh Brother,
You're in trouble up to your ears!

So you tell four lies to try to protect you
Then you tell five lies so folks wont suspect you
Then you tell six lies and you'll collect
A life filled with worries and fears

'Cause you cant remember how many lies you've told
And half the things you say aren't true
And sometime you'll slip up and then
Whatever will become of you?

So you lie and lie without even trying
And each lie you tell will keep multiplying
'Till the whole wide world will know you're lying
Then you'll be
Suspected
Detected
Rejected
Neglected
Disliked
And you should!
When you lie, you're closing the door
On everything good

"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in DETERMINATION."
-Tommy Lasorda

I agree with this quote by Tommy. I say I agree because this  makes sense. if it weren't for the determination we all have, nobody would have accomplished anything. Determination is what helps us when we think we cant accomplish anything. determination, is that moment in life when you are about to give up but you think to yourself you can still accomplish it so you give more effort and keep on repeating to do so until you actually accomplish it.

i agree with this quote by Henry. i say i agree because, if you wish to achieve your goals you have to be in a positive mood. its not as if your are going to achieve anything if your to scared to do it. in other words you have to do what this quote says, and go after your goals confidently. if you are headed towards your goals but are to afraid of it, there's no way you will ever achieve that very goal.
