"A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder." -Thomas Carlyle

I agree with Carlye's statement. A rudder is a piece located on the outer part of the ship. Its purpose is to steer the ship when the captain changes the direction of the wheel. Without the rudder being part of the ship the boat would have no direction to go. This relates to a man without a goal because without a goal you would not know what direction to go through. Some people set goals for sports, jobs, or academics. One goal for sports is to be the top leading scorer. A goal for work is to get a promotion within a few months. Lastly, a goal for academics can be to have straight A's all year.

Student Success Statement

 "Kindness  is the essence of greatness."- Joseph B. Wirthlin I believe that Wirthlin's statement is true. When you are kind and caring to an individual you become a great person. One sees you differently when you are kind. They see that you are kind, caring, and respectful person rather than a person that is selfish and only cares about themselves. One example of kindness being an essence of greatness is giving up your seat for someone on the bus. If you see you someone is struggling to carry their items or is having trouble walking or standing you should be kind and offer them your seat. Another example of showing kindness is helping out the less fortunate. If you can afford something they can't like food or clothes be kind and give them some. It doesn't have to be new clothes or bought food it could be used clothes that is in good condition and a home made meal.

Student Success Statement

" My basic principle is that you don't make  decisions  because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular ;  you make them  because  they're right .” -  Theodore  Hesburgh  (Former President of  Notre Dame) I agree with Theodore Hesburgh's statement. Every decision you make you have to do it for the right reasons. You cannot let others influence you into making a bad decision. I think this is a quote that everyone should always remember. An example for this quote is cheating on a test. It may be a popular thing to do and it can be the easy way if you did not study, but it's the wrong choice. It's better to not pass the test then to get credit for someone else's work.
