Cowardice asks the question ‘is it safe?’ expediency asks the question ‘is it politic?’ Vanity asks question ‘is it popular?’

But, conscience asks the question, ‘is it right?’ and there comes a time when one must take a position that is either safe, not politics, nor popular, but one must take it because one’s conscience tell one that it is right.

                                        -Dr. Martin Luther king, Jr.

“The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in DETERMINATION.”

Tommy Lasorda

Reflection:

If you put to your mind that everything is possible then you will succeed because if you are always putting yourself down and saying that you can’t do anything then you won’t accomplish anything. For example if I am saying that I want to join cheer but I am always making excuses of why I don’t want to do it I am just putting myself down. If I stay with a positive mind and I determine myself to do it and reach my goal I know I will be able to do it.
