Never

 Student Success Statement
''You can't be right by doing wrong; you can't be wrong by doing right''
by: Thomas S. Monson

What Thomas is trying to say is that don't think you're doing the right when you're doing something bad. An example would be if you're going to smoke a cigarette is doing something wrong but, you believe its right. That is what he's trying to say that you might believe you are doing something right but its actually wrong.Another example would be if you're cheating of a test. You might think its right because you're going to get a good grade but its actually wrong. Now the next part is that you cant say somethings wrong when its actually right. For example if your friends are having problems and they ask you for advice. When you're giving them advice you might think your advice is wrong or you're not good at it. It doesn't matter because you're giving them a favor and it's choosing the right. So the best thing is to always do the right even if you feel it's wrong. It's important to know that because you'll build character.

Wrong is Never Right

Student Success Statement ''Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG IS NEVER RIGHT.'' Russell M. Nelson What Russel Nelson is saying is that you shouldn't always copy and do the same thing everyone else is doing because you never know if something is wrong. An example of this is, if you see people cheating on a test. You will then do it too but its doing the wrong. Its wrong to cheat because once you cheat you will never stop and its not right. Its also wrong to cheat because if you cheat your whole life when you work in the career you trained for you're not going to know whats going on. Another example is if you're at a party and you see people and kids smoking. They're going to tell you if you want some and since everyone else is doing it you're going to do it too. This is bad because not only are you doing it to look ''cool'' but you're also damaging your body. Damaging your body and give you a lot of health risk. So just ...

character

Student Success Statement ''Character is higher than intellect.'' Ralph Waldo Emerson What Ralph Waldo Emerson is saying is that character is key. Everything you do involves character. An example of having good character is if you're helping a elder cross the street. That's showing good character because you're helping someone and you're being caring. You're taking some time away to help someone and do good. An example of having bad character is when the teacher calls on you to do a problem and you respond back with attitude saying no and how you didn't even raise your hand. This example that I will say is an example of having good character and knowing your intelligent. Lets say that you're a good person as if you do all your homework, you help the environment after school, and you're good at playing basketball. Then there's this other kid who does bad in school, never listens, but is also better at basketball. The coaches w...

Forgive

Student Success Statement ''When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.'' Alan Paton What Alan Paton is saying is that forgiveness is healing. It's important to forgive. Once you forgive you feel better about yourself. You also feel more peaceful. An example is that if you and your brother had a big fight and it hurt you. You should still forgive him because no matter how long ago that fight was from he's still your brother. Plus once you forgive him you won't be angry at him anymore. Another example is if someone was once drunk driving and they crash a car. They will go to jail and then if the car was broken really badly the owners will be very angry at the person. But sooner or later if the person ask for forgiveness they should forgive them. Because if they beg for your forgiveness or not it shows that they care and they truly feel sorry. Plus you'll feel better once you forgive them.
