“Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is:

To be a CTR person- to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

-Mr. Haymore

Reflection

In this quote typed by Mr. Haymore, “Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. THE ULTIMATE CHOICE: To be a CTR person- to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!” In this statement said by6 Mr. Haymore he tells us that in order to succeed in Life we have to choose the right throughout our lives and if you do not succeed when choosing the right then that’s impossible because throughout our lives there will be up and downs and all we can do about it is choose the right and to be kind and helpful throughout our lives so we can live in peace and in harmony. I think we all have the choice to be able to choose the right because everyone can think and do what’s right but it takes a bigger person to stand up for what’s right and make change in the world each day. If we are able to choose the right each day then we can make a change in the world starting each day and maybe someday the world can be silent and peaceful for once.

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”

-Thomas Carlyle

Reflection

In this quote written by Thomas Carlyle he says, “A man without a goal is like ship without a rudder.” In this quote I think it shows a very big simple fact or Statement because how do you get up each day without a goal and how would you think about yourself if you didn’t have any goals. We have to have goals in order to live and succeed in life because life doesn’t have meaning if you do not have goals. A ship needs a router so it can sail or swim but if it doesn’t have its rudder then it’s not a boat at all it’s just a scrap of metal without a rudder. We need Goals to live and to be human, and if we don’t even have one goal at all then you are not human at all.

-Alexander Hamilton

Reflection

In this quote by Alexander Hamilton, He wrote “A promise must never be broken.” What Hamilton was trying to say is that a word you say or is spoken is something you hold as if the truth is among you and you have to say it but when a promise is broken it is broken forever and some wounds do not heal . Don’t Lie or Break a promise because both are choosing the wrong and making a promise and sticking to that promise is something that truly holds your dignity.

In my words I think that he is trying to say that no matter what happens, don’t stop trying or working hard because no matter who’s beside you , you will always succeed with them or without them but if there is someone who needs your help then Help them.

Reflection

In this statement by George Mitchell, he states “Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater.

That cheating will never help you because cheating is a virus that will eat you up inside from all the guilt and pain it will give you.
