“ A promise must never be broken” -Alexander Hamilton
Example: If you promise to be at practice at 4 o'clock, you have to be there at 4 o'clock. If you are not there by that time then you are in the CTW range.

Reflection: Trust is built through a series of experiences shared with others. When behavior is consistent, faith in the relationship develops. When promises are broken or people are misled, the bonds of trust are breached.Broken promises imply that the offenders either didn’t think before making the promises, or don’t care that they’ve let you down. They’re also implying that their needs are more important than yours. So, be careful about the promises that you make and with whom you make them. If you can't keep a promise you shouldn't make it.Every time you give your word, you’re putting your honor on the line. Most importantly, you’ll be letting yourself down.When you operate with complete integrity, what you say will be taken at face value, your intentions will be assumed honorable, and your handshake will be as good as a contract. Most importantly, you can take great pride in the standards that you’ve set for yourself and sleep well at night knowing that your conscience is clear. As for others when they think they’re fooling the world, they’ll realize that they’re only fooling themselves. A promise is a promise after all.

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.” - Henry David Thoreau

Example: If you invest in bad things then they will fail. If you invest in good things they will never fail.

Reflection: I agree with this quote by Henry David Thoreau. This quote means that you should always CTR no matter what you invest in. If you invest in the right things then you are also making the right investments. If you CTR 24/7 you will be happy and on track. However if you CTW then you will be a very bad person. CTW will never lead you to make good investments. It will lead you to failure and you will not be successful. If you CTR you will lead a happy, honest, giving lifestyle. Choosing the right isn’t just a motto, it's a way of life.

“ My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy you don't make them because they're cheap, you don't make them because they're popular, you make them because they’re right.” -Theodore Hesburgh

Example: If you know you have to study for a test and you go out with friends, you are making the wrong decision. It doesn't matter if it's popular or not, you should always CTR. You should make decisions based on whether you CTR or not.

Reflection: You should always put your best effort in decision making. If you CTR 24/7 you will be happy and be led down the right path. But if you CTW you will not be successful and it will lead to failure. No matter what situations you are put in in life, you should always make the right decision.

“It is our duty to concentrate all your influence to make popular that which sound and good, an unpopular that which is unsound” (not good) -Jospeh Smith

Student Success Statement

“I won’t cheat”- Dale Murphy

Example: If your teacher decides to randomly give you a pop quiz, you should not cheat for the test, even if you didn't study for it. Instead you should be honest with your teacher about not studying, and ask her nicely if you can make it up at lunch or afterschool. If she says yes, then you can study for it, and retake it again to get an honest score.

Reflection:
Cheating can get you in serious trouble.By cheating in school and getting caught, it can lead to an automatic F or even worse a zero.In worst case scenario, it can lead to you being expelled. If you cheat to get a better grade, you're taking a big risk of getting a much worse grade that will bring your grade down. Cheating is unfair to you and your friends.You've probably heard an old saying that goes: "When you cheat, you're really cheating yourself." School can help make you a better person in many ways, and help you learn the things you need to live a fulfilling life. If you never really learn these things because you're cheating, then all you're going to learn is how to cheat! It's important to play fair in games and sports, and that goes for school, too. If you've ever had a friend who was so determined to win at all costs that she cheated at whatever game you played, you know how upsetting this can be. You're playing by the rules, and then someone does better than you by breaking the rules.That is very unfair behavior  to those all around you.When you cheat, it's unfair to the kids who actually studied and did the work.

“Great Beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.” - Benjamin Franklin

Example: If you are a beautiful person, but have a very ugly personality, then people will look past your beauty and see you as hideous.

Example #2: If you are the strongest person on earth, but have a weak bad heart, then strength will not matter.

Reflection: This quote  means beauty, strength and wealth are not as important as your personality. If you are beautiful but have a wicked heart no one will like you. If you're ugly or beautiful but have a kind heart you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar. It only matters what's in our hearts and our desires to do. If we desire good in our hearts, then good will come to us. If we desire bad in our hearts, then bad will come to us. We should always have the pleasure to CTR inside of our minds and hearts. Happy hearts that do good will always bring us happiness. If we have a genuine heart to to good for ourselves and other people then that is a right heart.

Add a picture or two:

Reflection: Do you think you'd like to be one? Why? Why not?

No I don't think I would like to be one because they have to know how the human mind works, and I think it would be too complex to understand fully why someone feels the way they do. Maybe I would be a nurse if I went into the medical field.
They’re only truly great who are truly good.” -George Chapman

Example: If you are a baseball all star, but you cheat you don’t get honored as much. If someone is honest while playing baseball, but they lose they still get praise because they played fair. It doesn’t feel as good to play dirty rather than to play true to the game.

Reflection: If you are a cheater, you will probably win, but you will feel guilt. It is better to play without cheating because you will feel truly good about yourself. You are truly a loser if you win but you are cheating. It is unfair to those around you to cheat because they are playing fair when you are not. It is always better to be a CTR person 24/7. Choosing the right leads down the pathway to success and a happy heart. Choosing the right isn’t just a motto, its a way of life.

True Independence and Freedom:

“True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right.” -Brigham Young

Example: If you want to be independent, then you should CTR. If you want to be free you should also CTR.

Reflection:
If you CTW, you will not have a chance at freedom. This is because you cannot be truly free unless you choose the right. If you do whats right, you can be free and independent. If you do not do what’s right you will be a failure. I agree with this quote because if you choose the right you could never go wrong. Choosing the right will lead you down the path of success. Being  a CTR person means that you will find the happiness inside your heart to be free. You can actually have independence and freedom when you do the right thing. I always CTR everyday.CTR makes me feel happy and also makes me feel independent.

“I trust that my hard work will pay off.”- Tyler Haws

Example: If you have finals on Monday, and you start studying on Sunday, you are not putting in a lot of effort. However, if you start studying for finals a few weeks before, you will get a better score because you have worked hard for a long time. If you stay dedicated to everything you do, hardwork will pay off.

Reflection:Hard work pays off IF:
You're working hard at something somebody WANTS.
You're working hard at something not everyone can do.
You're working hard at something you're actually GOOD at.
No matter what you do or when you do it, hard work always pays off in the end. Hard work is what we have to do if we plan on going or doing anything in this life. We cannot sit back and take it easy all the time, we have to get out there and work for what we want. When we have to put forth hard work then you know the rewards will be that much greater.I believe that I should try my hardest and eventually my hard work will pay off.If I really want to achieve something in life, I have to work my hardest. I know that my hard work will pay off later because I am dedicated to getting good grades in school. As long as I Choose The Right 24/7 and work hard, I know that I will be taken care of.

“ Character is higher than intellect.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Example: If you are very smart, but you have a bad attitude people will start to hang out with you less.So this is why intellect is more important than character.

Reflection: I agree with this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson.We all know how easy it is to follow the majority, to do as everyone else seems to be doing, to do only that which is considered average. It takes a strong individual to live a life based on his or her own ideals. Such a person shows strength simply in ability to remain on a chosen path regardless of the inevitable counter forces.It is the fear of these counter forces that keeps most of us away from our natural desire to learn in order to fulfill our desire for acceptance. It is the fear of these counter forces that threatens us to inaction rather than face failure.Although we tend to restrict ourselves, we admire those who have the tenacity to face up to these forces in order to live the way they choose. To those who have used their mind to perceive and understand the unknown we recognize their intellect. To those who go the extra step of being a living example of their beliefs we recognize their character. If you choose the right 24/7 you will lead a happy life and heart.
