Student Success Statement

“Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate 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!!!”

Reflection: What this quote means is that there are many choices out there a person has to make. But the ultimate choice is to be a CTR person which is to always choose the right. This ultimate choice will lead you to being the best student and best person you can be. This ultimate choice will affect you for good than any other choice.

Nicest Man In The World

The nicest man in the world Patrick Morgan from Florida found an iPad and $13,000 at a bar in Florida. What Patrick did was the best thing in the world. He returned the iPad back to its owner and he also returned the $13,000 that was in the case. When the owner of the iPad got their iPad back by Patrick they gave Patrick $60. Patrick didn't keep the $60 he gave some to a homeless woman and some other to a co-worker of Patrick. Then Patrick at the end got a pay check of $625 for being honest and giving back the iPad and the $13,000. The reward that Patrick got was not just money for choosing the right but he got himself self-esteem, dignity, integrity, and self-respect.

‘The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem.”

Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Reflection: What I think that Dr. Laura Schlessinger is trying to say is that the reward we get when we choose the right is self-respect, dignity, integrity, and self-esteem. But if we choose the wrong we don’t get any self-respect, no dignity, no integrity, and our self-esteem goes down.

For example, JamesOn Curry what breaking high school records and was an amazing young man but he chose to not stand alone and follow the others that were selling and doing drugs. Therefore, Thomas S. Monson is also trying to tell us to stand alone.

Summary of Video

I think that Christian did what he did to give Tana $250 because he wanted to do what was right. Not like Christians dad who was doing wrong stealing money from Tana and going to jail half a dozen times. Christian didn't want to be like his dad so he decided to give Tana his $250 trip money for his band. Tana thought it was a right thing to do but she told Christian to keep the money for his trip and gave Christian his $250 back. Therefore, if you do what is right you can always feel better and maybe even get reward.

Reggie Bush

Reggie Bush was the best college football player. He had gotten a trophy for being the best college football player. Until he cheated and was disobedient they took away all his trophies. They also erased all his records that the games he won and they also deleted his record for being the best college football player. They took away all his cars and home. Also they removed all his 12 wins and put them to 0 wins. When USC found out that Bush was disobedience they took away all the trophies and the pictures they had of Bush in the locker rooms. He had committed multiple violations by accepting money and gifts from USC while playing for USC. Reggie Bush was not a CTR person.

                    " You cannot do something wrong and feel right. It is impossible."
