Student success statement

Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG IS NEVER RIGHT'' by Russell M. Nelson This statement means that it doesn't matter if everyone you know is doing bad things because it still doesn't make it right and you shouldn't follow other peoples footsteps if they're in a wrong path. For example, if  your in class and one of your classmates are handing out a paper with all the answers to a test that your about to have and everyone is getting one but you knw its wrong to cheat then you shouldn't follow what everyone else is doing. You should be able to make your own choices and not copy what everyone is doing because if they get in trouble for doing the wrong then you will too. Right will always be right even if no one is doing it. You should know what is wrong and what is right. So its your choice to choose what path your going to take and don't let no one tell you what  to do or influence your choices. Even if everyone else is not doing good you should. Don...

''I have been asked what I mean by 'word of honor.' I will tell you. Place me behind prison walls--walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground--there is a possibility that in some way or another I may escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it.

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 I agree with this statement because if you have a great character then people will get inspired to be like you. Having a good character is very important because it tells a lot about you. Sometimes it can be hard to be positive and have a good character because we may get mad or moody and it can be hard to control our emotions but it's good to try and remain polite to everyone. If you are always kind to others and respect them then it's most likely that they'll treat you the same way. Wherever you go if you have a good heart and good intentions then you will be in peace and happy with yourself. You need to set a good example for everyone around you so they can know that they sh...
