Student Success Statement

                Student Success Statement

" To see what is right and not to do it is want of courage."-Confucius
The statement allows us to envision an example of an individual who lacks courage and moral integrity. If you were to participate in a proper activity and you were aware the activity was correct you are exhibiting moral integrity and self initiative. If you were to participate in an improper activity and you were aware that the activity was improper you would lack moral integrity and self initiative, because many individuals who participate within unjust activities are usually individuals who lack self initiative. If you were to be aware of a correct activity and not participate with in the activity, you lack the courage needed to stimulate your self initiative and moral integrity. Suppose there is a child who does not assist an individual his group of friends despise, the child is aware of the other individuals need, but he decides to follow his acquaintances and leave the other child helpless, so therefore this child lacks the courage needed to stimulate his self initiative.

Student Success Statement

 "To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice."-confucius
I agree with this quote, when an individual acknowledges what is the proper action is with in that paticular scenario and refuses to take part with in the correct action is a the worst cowardice. We are taught what is right and wrong from experience, but when we experience the same scenario again, you would expect everyone to initiate a proper action right? Well individuals who exhibit cowardice believe the must express neglectance to ward a proper action. Once that individual has experienced a  predicament in which they do not understand what is the correct or incorrect action and they participate in the incorrect action they will either learn to choose the correct action later in life or they cannot fully comprehend or have contradictory views and sxhibit neglectance and cowardice by repeatedly choosing the incorrect action while being aware of the severity of their problem.
