Student Success Statement 

"Dare to stand alone." 

Thomas S. Monson 

When i read this quote i think it refers to all the bad situations. Its basically saying don't be afraid to be alone in a choice if your know its right. Most of the time people tend to fallow the bad decisions of other people simply because others stand by those decisions. But what if you stand alone then maybe everything in your life will go smoothly. It is not right to fallow bad decisions simply because others are doing them. Which is why a person should not be afraid to stand alone in these situations. 

Student Success Statement 

Never Because, "You can't be right by doing wrong; you cant be wrong by doing right." 

Thomas S. Monson 

When i read this quote it just makes me think that right and wrong are two different things. A person cannot expect to be right by doing wrong simply because they think its right or because they do not know the answer between right and wrong. But when a person does something right and they know or it feels right then it is right. But if you do something wrong it is simply wrong and not right. 

Student Sucess Statement 

"Obedience is the great test of life" 

Thomas S. Monson 

When i read his quote i think of the many test we take. The test either take place in our home, school, or in life itself. But don't they all depend on your behavior. If you are obedient and well behave you will do good. This also applies to you test in school because it depends on how obedient you are when you study.  In life the test might be different but it still goes back on your behavior the less obedient you are the strong the test will be. 

Student Success  Statement 

"Our very business in life is not to get ahead of others... but to get ahead of ourselves" 

Thomas S. Monson 

When i read his quote i think of competition or every day life. In competition we are always trying to get ahead we are always trying to win. But it is normal we are humans after all we always have to get ahead its in our nature. Which why in every day life we are always getting ahead. But what if we don't, what if we work together, Wouldn't we get more done if this happen wouldn't our troubles be solve quicker. Just stop and think about it right now and it will make sense.  

“Decisions determine destiny.”

Thomas S. Monson

When I read the quote “Decision determine destiny,” by Thomas S. Monson I think of the decisions you make through your life will determine the way your destiny will work out. Such as having a choice between two roads one right and one left.  The right road is nice and clean and very well kept with beautiful trees. The left road has trash and the tree look like they are dying. This is where your decision on which road to go to comes into questioning if you go for the right one you will probably have a bright destiny but the left road give you a dark and bad destiny. This is why when I read his quote I think of two roads and my decision will determine where my destiny will take me.
