Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
"Failure is only postponed success as long as courage coaches ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory."
Herbert Kaufman

Reflection:  I believe this quote is to encourage us/ everyone to do their best. Failure is not an option, that's exactly why one shouldn't have to deal with the disappointment that failure puts in our lives. In order to live a good life, you must have good habits. Good habits will lead to positive vibes, your life will not only become simpler, but very enjoyable. Choose the right.

Marion Jones' rise played out on the world's biggest stage; so did her fall


Marion Jones had gone far in life. She was winning Olympic medals for running. She had done a really good job in training. A fast, dedicated woman until she admitted she used enhancing drugs, (very popular in running). She had lied so many times, until the truth was told. That took away her bright career and gave her a negative fame.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
"The only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Thus, the first law I will obey, which precedeth all other is- 'I will form good habits and become their slaves.' "
Og Mandino

Reflection: Having good habits will easily help a person stay focused. What the quote means is that everyone has the same amount of time to succeed, but the ones that do are the ones who have goal. With great habits, all can be accessed. For example, a good habit is starting your homework the moment you walk into your house.. those good grades will eventually pay off. You must choose the right.
