"Doing the right might be hard at times, but it will make the road to success easier." -Celest Chavarria

Image
This quote is saying that doing the right will prevent bad things from coming your way. You can't be successful is you always get in trouble and do the wrong things. Doing the right thing can be doing good in school, many people think that college/high school isn't needed but it is. School is needed no matter what you want to be, because later in life you will regret no going to school.Doing the right will make you keep going forward, no matter how little or big it is. I know it might be hard at times but in the end it will make you successful. And it's never too late, doing the right thing will bring you up and make you a better person. You don't want to live a life of regret, thinking 'what if i didn't do all those bad things. You have to do the right or else the road to success with be longer and harder pass on. Doing the right is like riding a car on the road to success and doing the wrong is like walking on it. What's faster, a car of your feet?

Chinese Proverb

Character 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. ~____________________ ____________~ What this means, is that having a good character can go a long way. Even though it might seems it might not affect society, it will in the long run. Having good character is like taking part in bringing peace to our world. An example of this is when you have a child, if you teach to have a good character, they will adapt that will continue to spread. Even people you meet, they can want to become a better person because they saw you. You never know how your actions might affect someone.  You always have to be the best person you can be, because you never know who is watching. Sometimes o...

"When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive."- Alan Patron

Image
This quote means that forgive is the only way to move on. Holding a grudge won't do anything, no matter how big the wound is. Forgive can be hard depending on the situation, but once you do you will feel great. Forgiving shows what type of person you are, forgiving can be harder to others but it will make you feel better. An example of this is when a drunk driver killed 2 girls in a car accident, the mother reduced to number of years he was going to stay in prison in half. Although that person killed her daughter she new being mad and bitter won't do anything. She could have stayed mad, she had the right to, but she decided to forgive the driver. Forgiving some will make a difference no matter how big or small the situation is. Sometimes you have to be the bigger person and forgive.  Sometimes you might think  you can never forgive someone, but the time will come because you don't want to be mad all the time.

"Dare to stand alone. Stand up for what is right, even is you stand alone."- Thomas S. Monson

Image
This quote means that doing the right thing might mean you have to stand alone. And even if you are standing alone you know you are doing the right thing. It doesn't matter if the people around you do it, it matters if you are choosing the right thing. Sometimes your friend might be on a different path, and they might be your friends, but it's your future. You can even bring people on to your path so that you won't stand alone.

"I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating."- Sophocles

Image
This quote means that cheating is wrong. Cheating and winning doesn't make you a winner at all. Honor is the best thing you can have, it's better to fail with honor, it shows what type of person you are. If you cheat and get caught, that can mess up for life. If you win or fail with honor it shows what type of morals you have, and it shows your parents raised you right. Doing the right will always do good, that's why you have to do it all the time. Doing wrong will not get you anywhere in life, so why would you do it.Choosing the right will make you feel good while you do good, and it will get you out of trouble. Doing the wrong will make you feel bad, especially if you win because of cheating. You have to choose the right because it is the right thing to do.

"The most important thing you will ever have is good values."- Dennis Prager

Image
This quote means that good values should be very important to you. Without good values the world wouldn't be the same. The people who do bad things let their feelings overcome their values. You have to control yourself so that you value good morals more. It will make you a better person. Values prevent people from doing bad things because as a human your feelings and values fight each other. Since some people are more emotional than others, they tend to go with their feelings. Feelings can get in the way and seem like the better choice. But not every situation is bad, sometimes you have to pick your feelings. You just have to know when to choose your feelings or values.

"The reward for doing the right is mostly an internal phenomenon:(self worth), integrity, and self-esteem."- Dr.Laura Schlessinger

Image
This quote means that the reward for doing something good is reward within yourself. You shouldn't strive to get something from the other person when you do good. When doing the right you have to do it without wanting something in return. You should do good and the only you get from that is self worth. That is something that you can't get, you have to achieve it. Doing something good means that you won't get something like money in return. Doing something good should be something that you do just to do it. You shouldn't want anything back. If do something right with that intention you end up failing to do good thing. that's why you have to be selfless.

"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing." -Theodore Roosevelt

Image
This quote is trying to say that doing the right should be the choice of every decision. Choosing the right will always benefit you, that's why you might as well choose it. If you choose the right, it will have a bad impact on you. Most people know the affects but still choose the wrong either way. But you have to be smart about what choice you choose. No matter how small or big the decisions they might be. Big or small they will have impact on you, you decide whether the impact is bad or good. Some decisions they aftermath will affect for a certain time or they might impact your life. I honestly try to make the decisions but of course no one is perfect and we always make that bad choice. You just have to try to make the right decision.

"Nothing is ever gained in doing what's wrong." -Wilford Woodruff

Image
This quote means that doing wrong is something that won't benefit you. Doing the right will keep pushing you forward. If you do wrong you will get pushed back and when you learn your lesson you will be right where you started. You have to do the right because you want to keep on moving forward. Going back will only prevent you from your true potential. You have to do good because that will help you become a better person, and being a good person can affect what you do in the future. For example, if you get caught lying you don't gain anything, you only go back. It's like a board game, you want to keep going forward, but if you keep on going back you will lose the game. You wan to win the game, so that's why you have to keep on moving forward. Going back will only lead you to bad things.

"It's A GREAT MOMENT when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time." -Pam Knox

Image
This quote is tellings us that you have great character when you choose to do the right and the right time.  Doing the right is great but doing at the perfect time is even better. An example of this is when you see someone in need of help and you help them straight away. If you were to wait and help, it wouldn't be the best you could do. You have to do the right without hesitating about it, it it's the right thing to do then do it. A good character is someone that chooses the right naturally. When you know it's good that's when you should act, because if you don't it might be too late to help. DOing the right should be natural and you shouldn't even know your doing it. Once you get to that point, you know you have a great character. Doing the right can be hard for some, but you just need practice on how to do it naturally.

“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. Can I get out of the circle? No. Never! I’d die first!” -Karl G. Maeser

Image
This quote is saying that your word of honor should be your top priority. You should always keep your  word because it will only cause problems if you don't. For some people they have trouble trusting people and when you break your word, it can hurt them. Honor is something that everyone should have, because it is very important. In a job, relationship, school, etc, you need trust/honor or else it won't last. An example is when you have a job and say you will turn in something to your boss by a certain date, you have turn it in the date you said. If you don't turn it in you will get fired. Honor is something that should be pushed aside because you were too lazy. Keeping a promise is something that is very important and should be the number one priority. Breaking a promise is like breaking the other person's heart, you don't want to do that.

"A promise must never be broken."- Alexander Hamilton

Image
This quote is saying that promise should never be broken if you are honorable. If you want to be trustworthy you make to keep to your word. Even the little things like meeting someone after school, you have o be someone who will do it if you say it. Because if yo break a promise you are hurting someone whether it be the person you made the promise to or yourself. Always sticking to your word will help you get trust of others and knowing people can impact you. If you can or can't do something you have to be honest, its being a good person. You have to always do whats right and always tell the truth. And also sometimes you can promise something to yourself, those must never be broken either. Breaking a promise is like telling a lie, and telling a lie will become normal for you so you do it without even realizing it. Breaking a promise is like saying 'i can't do it because i don't care.' and no one wants to say that.

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”- Henry David Thoreau

Image
The quote tells us that goodness will never make you get arrested. Bad things only happen to the people who are doing bad. That’s why doing good is always the way to go, you can never get in trouble while doing good.  If someone goes to jail, they aren’t going because they were being nice. Going to jail means you did something wrong, you can prevent that by always doing good. I know if i try to always do good i will be ok, the reason i say ‘try’ is because everyone is human so you are bound to do wrong sometimes. And by ‘wrong’ i mean lie or cheat on a test or something, not kill/harm someone. Usually doing good can be hard since most people don’t do good 24/7, but just the little things can help.  People think being good is always doing good 24/7, but that’s not the truth, doing little things like making people smile/laugh can be labeled as doing good. Doing can be hard sometimes but in the end it’s the right choice.

“My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right.”- Theodore Hesburgh

Image
Doing the right is always a difficult thing to do for most but it has a big great affect to those around them when they do it. People need to do it more often because slowly people aren't doing because 'there wasn't anything i can do.' They are just making excuses but those who do good are good people. People who do right is those who like to take action instead of watching. You shouldn't do something because you are going to get something out of it, or because someone made you do it. You should make a decision because it is the right thing to do. Doing the right will set an example for or inspire others, so that the others will also do right. Doing right is something you choose to do and hopefully you can always do the right. Although it isn't the easiest thing to do it is the right thing to do. Doing the right will always be the better choice.

"I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong. "- Abraham Lincoln

Image
This quote means that winning isn't everything, its about being true to yourself and others. You have to be true to yourself, this also has to do with good character. Having a good character will affect your future and present. You have to have a good character and you do that by being true. An example of this is if you end up ripping or damaging something that doesn't belong to you, you have to be truthful. You have own up to your mistake and tell them the truth. The truth is what makes determines if you have a good or bad character. Being honest can never hurt it will only help you for the best. having a good character is key to living a good life, not lying is a way to have good character. That's why you always have to be honest most of the time, or else lying will become a habit.

"Character is higher than intellect."- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Image
This quote means that it doesn't matter how smart you are, having good character is more important. Most people feel like you will be judged on you intellect, but the truth is that your character leaves a bigger impact in a interview than a resume. You have to show if you will work hard and be kind to others, although your intellect is important, your character will determine everything. Good character is hard to find sometimes, so when people do find someone with good character they are going to hire that person. If you have it all then you will for sure get hired, that's why you have to try to have good grades and be a good person. Character determines everything that's why you have to have a good one.
