"Success is the dependent on effort."

Sophacles, Greek dramatist

Reflection: To me, this quote explains what's needed to be successful. In order to have a great future, you'll need a goal, somewhere you're aiming. With effort, all is possible. Knowing that you tried, did your best, and succeeded is the best feeling only because you put effort in whatever it was that you were doing. For example, if you study so many years, putting in effort to get the best grades, and graduated, then it all pays off. Effort is key.

"It's better to be alone than to be in  bad company." 

Anon. 

Reflection:  What this quote means is that when you're accompanied by bad company you will want to do the bad things people around you are doing, but when you're on your own, you aren't influenced by negativity. It's easier to stop yourself from doing something bad rather than feeling a bit peered pressure. For example, when you're on your own, nobody is around to tell you what you should do. But when you're at a party, surrounded by drunk people, or drugged people, you might want to give it a try and nobody will be there to stop you.

"Improvement begins with I."

Anon.

Reflection: This quote has two meanings. Improvement literally begins with "I", but it also means that I, as a person, can start improvement starting with myself. For example, if I want to change the world, I'll have to make myself a better person to be able to help others.

"The time is always right to do what is right." 

Martin Luther King Jr. 

Reflection: The message that MLK tried to send with that quote is that no matter what you do, you can always make things better. It's always the right time to fix mistakes. You may be able to look back at your past and if you would like to fix damages, you can always find a way to make your future better.
