Student Success Statement 1/09/2017

"We need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do."
                                               -Richard L. Evans


I believe this quote is saying that we shouldn't be afraid of doing the right thing because we know it is right and that we should stay away from the bad things in life because they can hurt you more than you expect. I also think this quote is trying to say is that everyone has courage but we use it differently. Some use it for the sake of others such as man saving someone from a burning car or a person saving someone from the train tracks after they have fallen and a train is coming. These are good examples of why you should use you courage and continue what you know is good. When you don't stop continuing what you know is bad then you are using your courage falsely. You can't use courage to prove things to others. Such as you smoke weed because your friends told you that you're scared. Be scared because you know that smoking is bad and it can injure you very badly. Another example would also be that you ask out a person because you got dared to. Why would you do that if you don't really like the person. Not only will you be hurting them but also yourself. Don't use courage to prove things because that is not why it is inside you. Courage is inside you so that you prove to yourself that you can help others and continue even though there is something in your way. Have courage and use it correctly.
