Stuednt Success Statement

               Student Success Statement

  "If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say."-Marcus Aurelius(Roman emperor form 161 A.D to 180 A.D)
This statement tries to convey what is correct and what is incorrect. We are taught what is wrong at an early age, but until we experience the consequences after we have commited that action, do we begin to understand what is proper and what is improper. That can also be conveyed through what is actual and what is not actual, when we are children we expirement with certain actions so we lie whaen we are taught what a inaccuracy is, but only until we experience the catastrophic consequences that manifest after we have shared inaccurate information, do we realize it is improper to share in accurate information.

Summary and reflection:video

                Summary and Reflection

Summary:At the start of the video we are prsented with words such as honesty,integrity,respect, ethics, and courage. It then presents a question What is the greatest human challenge? the answer is given and it states "living by our beliefs." The video then presents us with the definitions of every word that was given to us in the begining of the video. The videos text is accompinied by inspirational music and pictures that represent the text.
Reflection: This was a mesmerizing piece of media that presented a proper topic and enlightened my thoughts. The words that were presented built a foundation from which the question arose. We all live and behave through the stimulation of certain beliefs, an example may be an individual who believes in respect, we then expect that individual to respect the populace around him or her. These words presented stimulated my thought, the question presented to me was rather easy to interpret, the humans who are uncommited cannot implement their beliefs upon their lives or even manifest any beliefs.

"Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his/her choices."-Albert A. Montapert
I agree with this statement, we will never be able to escape the consequences that accompany our actions. When our judgement is shrouded by a motivation we act and ignore the consequences that will accompany our actions. At that moment we are only focused on the compensation that we will recieve from the participation upon such an action. No one ever escape the consequences of his or her action, actions manifest consequences. Consequences either benefit the individual or corrupt the individual.

" If you do what is right, you have no need to fear."-Anonymous
I agree with the quote. The negativity that has spread throughout this world torments our minds everyday and will forever. I believe that right can be equated toward light and light naturally shields from darkness which can be equated toward the wrong. The world that we walk upon is plauged by convolution and corruption, we must shield ourselves from the corruption by choosing what is right. Society expects many of us to be proper civilians the community bestows us with certain responsibilities and we must evaluate the responsibilities and partake in the actions that result in prosperaty. Our own judgement can either plauge us with darkness or shield us from the darkness, we must build resilience against influence that we evaluate are improper. Through proper judgement we will never fear the world.

" You cannot do wrong and feel right, it is impossible."- Ezra Taft Benson
It is rather impossible Mr. Benson. When someone commits an improper action they feel guilt, guilt is an innate feeling that promotes an inescapable grasp of resentment. Therefore you cannot feel right or proper when you have commited an improper action. From the our first improper action we learn about the constrictive powers of guilt, we learn that when you have commited an improper action the evaluation of the action is accompinied by guilt. Individuals will never benefit from inproper actions, the action will plauge your mind and slumber in the recesses of your thoughts. Guilt is a rather powerfull emotion it degenerates the human body and ravages the mind. Guilt is always expressed through physical and mental reactions such as: sweating, anxiety, fast pulse, mental instability, and many other reactions are associated with guilt. So inorder to prosper we must choose to associate ourselves with what is right.

"Nothing is ever gained from doing what is wrong"-Wilford Woodruff
I agree with this statement nothing is gained from doing what is wrong. Doing what is wrong detracts from your morality your ideals, The corruption that plauges you mind detracting your own inhibitions. When you do what is right many beneficial results are gained, doing what is right will enlighten the individual who had chosen the right. We are taught as children to envision what is right as an enlighting force, but we are also taught to envision what is wrong as a force of corruption. We live in a societal world in which you are expected to be a proper citizen. But you have the freedom to embody what is right or what is wrong.

" It is not where you live by how you live is what is important. It is not where you play the game but how."-Mr. Haymore

This satement is proper nontheless. We believe in society and have been taught that the actions a human initiate upon defines him or her. This delves into proper life applications, such as the comparison between two communities. We where asked whether we preffered a rural area or a proper beachside house, many of the individuals preffered the beach house. This statement presents us with a question and we must answer such, i believe a human should be defined through their attitudes, their actions, not their physical possesions or their financial situations. Many people respect other individuals in seek of wealth and do not care whether they participate in humane or inhumane actions. We humans are viewed as higher thinking oranisms we must evaluate  before we act, and whether we are financially stable or not we still hold power, the power to impact a community through a proper or improper action. And that is how we are evaluated by other individuals.

Student Success Statement

                          Student Success Statement 

" It is our duty to concentrate all of our influence to popularize what is sound and proper, and to disrupt what is unsound or improper."- Joseph Smith
Mr. Smith expresses his proper opinion with in the threshold of his quote and i agree with his quote. Our duty as citizens of a society is to live our lives and behave accordingly and idealize the aspects of society. We are distributed  freedom by society, and therefore the only proper way to achieve freedom is through doing what is right. Doing what is right is one of the major foundations of society. We must therefore popularize the foundation that society has laid upon us in order to sustain ourselves in this world. And therefore it is our duty to supress the wrong through several methods, our current method is known as community service and law enforcement. But a force we must combat is the growing popularity of an ideal known as rebellion, People who follow this ideal are disruptions toward society, they commit crimes and rattle the structure of society. But i fear this force is one we may have to supress forever. One example is  the growing popularity of academic neglectance, many children neglect school and concentrate upon doing what is right due to influences in the enviornment, Students who are adequate  concentrate upon doing what is right. This is the major difference between a proper student and an improper student.

"I know only that what is moral is what you feel good after and what is immoral is what you feel bad after"-Ernest Hemingway

I believe this statement is rather true. We are taught morals as children, when we are instructed we are told the best moral is to do what is right. But is a moral not built upon the foundations of doing what is right, After we do a proper deed we are rewarded physically or spiritually for having participated in an act that had benefited an individual. We are also taught that people are instructed imroper morals, we do not understand such teachings as younger children and through proper instincts we experiment by commiting deeds and obeserving the reactions of society. We then proceed to categorize such actions as either proper or improper. If they are imroper we have a choice to proceed with this acation or not.

" My strength is as the strength of ten because my heart is pure"- Alfed, Lord Tennyson.
This statement is marvelous. I believe strength is obtained to doing what is right, you exploit you weaknesses through doing what is wrong. I believe the uncorrupted lie in the proper area of the world they are the strong people who will lead prosperous lives. They exhibit strength, and that strength is used to repel corruption. As children we are born innocent or "pure hearted" we exhibit strength and proper behavior due to our blank minds. But as we grow we are exploited to the world and the influences the world beholds. We are either corrupted or strenghtend at a young age. A heart cannot be or will ever be the center of judgement those processes are controlled by the cerebral area. A person who is incorruptable exhibits proper jugdement and that is what makes that person strong and prosperous. A weak person is easilly influence and lives in a world full of delusion and corruption. A proper person is clearly the stronger individual. We must not be corrupted or we will lose the strength we have gathered.
