Student Success Statement

               Student Success Statement

"You must live within the present in order to secure your future."-Reverend Robert Craig
I absolutely support the statement. If we were to not participate in any beneficial activity at the current moment we would not be able to secure any amount of success. The usage of temporal reference allows us to picture the present moment and ask ourselves,What action am i conducting that will benefit me? If we were not able to adapt to our present situation, that would mean we are "living in the past" here we perceive adaptation as a fundamental ability that when applied to a certain situation can allow us to succeed. If we were to live in what is referenced as the "future" we would suddenly preoccupy ourselves with events that have not even occurred so how can we be certain, these events are truthful. Therefore we must focus on the present and attempt to secure our success.
