Student Success Statement

                Student Success Statement

"The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing up for what is right is a true test of moral character."-Margaret Chase Smith
This quote conveys the never ending threat of peer pressure upon the general population. those who allow themselves to succumb to the grasp of improper actions are individuals in need of acceptance, suppose a child is asked by his friends to throw a rock at a stranger, the child proceeds to refuse, the other individuals offer to form a friendship with him if he were to throw the rock, the child contemplates the choices and decides that he would rather be accepted by this group of individuals, so he proceeds to throw the rock. The need for acceptance is one of the stimulants that provokes an individual to commit an action once he or she is pressured by a group of individuals.

Student Success Statement

                Student Success Satement

            "Keep your eyes on the prize"- Anonymous
This quote is a rather trite like quote. This proverb is a widely used proverb. I was taught as a child many things but one of the most inportant lessons was perseverance i was told if i wanted somethong i would have to work hard and persevere. My answer is and always will be yes, everyone wants something, we all want to succeed within our own boundaries of perception. The motivation to succeed lies in the effort of the individual, if you were to not display effort, then you would not achieve anything. I am a rather ambitous child, my motivation is both financial success and knowledge. If i do not astray from my coordinated path i would inevitably succeed. I am sure i would never astray form my path. We must percieve within ourselves and evaluate our motives, then conclude what we would like gain from the effort we would display. Success is limited toward the perception of a certain individual, many would just beleive success is attributed with wealth. My goal personally is to attend stanford and recieve my degree in physics and/or Medicine, i have evaluated my desires and have concluded that this is what i want.
