Student success statement

“No student ever attains eminent success by simply doing what is required of him/her; it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above that determines the greatest of ultimate distinction.”

Charles Kendall Adams, American historian

Reflection

Many students think that by just doing what is required they will become successful but truly it depends on what are the decisions that they make because in life you are always going to have to fallow your heart. For example, lets day that my sister is always doing what is required only but never goes that extra mile in life, she has a good chance of not becoming that successful because she never tried her best instead she just did what she had to.

“Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself.”

Henry ward beecher

Reflection:

To me this quote is telling you that you should always try to get higher things in life then what other people expect of you because many people sometimes expect the worst from you and you need to prove them wrong and do what is right. For example, if your family is always saying stuff about you like that they think that you are not going to be something in life you always have to prove them wrong by actually trying to do something, so that one day when you become a someone in life the will be regret what they once said to you that put down when you were trying to get up… J
