“Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all the others- the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, the ultimate choice, is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. The Ultimate Choice is:

To be a CTR Person- to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!!”

This quote means that the best choice that you can ever make is to always choose the right. It will help you lead a better life and it will help you become a better student and person overall. This is the only choice that will forever affect you in a positive way rather than a negative way.

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

What Brigham Young is trying to say in this quote is that, when you do the right thing, you will always have your freedom and independence and it won’t be taken away from you unless you do something that will get it taken away which is doing the wrong thing. 

“The true way to honor the past is to improve upon it.” – N. Eldon Tanner

What he is trying to say is that, the only way to honor the good things that you have done in the past is by continuing to do them and keep improving your good doings.

“It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today.”

-      James Freeman Clarke

What James Freeman is trying to say is that, later on in life, your actions from the present can affect you. If you do the right thing now and then your future consequences will be positive. But, if you do the bad things now, then it can affect you negatively in the future. You decide your own future by the actions that you decide to do today. 

“Only those live who do good.”

-      Count Leo Tolstoy

                                                

When Count Leo Tolstoy says this, I think that he means that, the people that are good and choose the right in everything they do will live a good life even if it’s short. But people that lie a bad life, they might live a long one, but they won’t really live happy like the ones who good.

“I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it.”

-         Dr. Ben Carson

                               

 I think that this statement means that, you aren't destined to live in poverty for the rest of your life just because you grew up in it. You can decide to work hard in school and in anything you do and you can change it. On the other hand of you don’t work hard and don’t show that you are determined to do something, you will eventually end up the same way grew up.

“It’s not about how to achieve your dreams. It’s about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma (destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.”- Dr. Randy Pausch

I think that this statements talk about, how you will be able to achieve your goals. You have to always do the right things and that will eventually lead you the right way and get opportunities for you to accomplish your dreams. You have to learn to do the right thing all the time so that you won’t get bad karma and all of the good opportunities in life will come to you.

“Every time I've done something that doesn't feel right, It’s end up not being right.”- Mario Cuomo

                                                                                 

This statement to me means that, if you want to do something that doesn't feel right, don’t do it. We have to think and be able to determine that if something feels wrong, you should think twice before doing it.

Final Part 2

A) What I liked about this class is that it teaches us to do the right things and it gives us inspiration to become what we want to be in life. What I don't like about this class is that we sometimes have to extend our typing tutor.

B) I think we should get more free time. I also think that we should have more time on doing our work.

C) I did try my best because I enjoy learning new quotes to motivate me.

D) Yes I am every day after school I read them and write some more when I think about new ones.

E) I am committed because I want to be a better person and I want to get other people to choose the right as well.

F) I promise to choose the right in everything I do and to get other people to become a ctr person.

                   “When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad.”

- Abraham Lincoln

I think that this statement means that, when you do something good and honestly, you will have a good feeling within your heart. On the other hand if you do bad, you won’t feel so good because you know that you did something wrong or you did something dishonestly. You should always do the right thing because it will help you have a kinder heart and it won’t make you feel bad.

“Take responsibility for your own body, mind, and spirit, for your own physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.”

                                                                             - Mr. Haymore

                                                                              

I think that this statement means that, you should take responsibility of your body, spirit, and mind for your well-being. This means that you should always choose to do the right thing and you should always be able to control your feelings and how avoid hurting other people because this will also hurt your well-being.

The Scorpion

Patrick was stung by a scorpion while he had gone camping with his parents. He wanted to go for a walk and instead of putting his shoes on; he put on some flip flops. He started walking, and not too far away from the site where his parents were, he felt a sharp pain in his leg. He thought that it was a thorn but as he looked down, he realized that it was a scorpion. They took him to the hospital and they told him that everything would be alright. I believe that Patrick should really learn from what happened and start doping what is right all the time. He got punished for choosing the wrong and if you do the wrong too, you will get punished as well.

“Always do Right.”

-Mark Twain

I think that this statement means that you should always do the right things no matter where you are. You must always decide to do the right thing not just once a week or once a day, but ALL the time. For example, you can try to do nice things for others. Even though you’re not very fond of them, you must always decide to do the right thing and be the more mature person. That is the key to having a successful life and to being a CTR person.

“When you tell one lie, it leads to another.”

I think that this means that, if you tell one lie, no matter how big or small it is, it will lead to many other lies. This will keep on happening until you are eventually caught up in a web of lies and will have no way out. You have to be honest so that you won’t have to hurt others around you by lying to them.

1.    1.  Can people trust me to do what’s right? Yes they can because I don’t want to hurt other people by choosing to do what is wrong.

2.   Am I committed to do my very best? Yes I am because I always try hard in whatever I do and I always commit myself to complete all of my goals.

3.    Do I treat people the way I want to be treated? Yes I do because I am very nice to people and even though they aren't nice to me, I still show them respect.

“If the answers to these questions are YES, there is no way you can fail.”

-          Lou Holtz

Reflection: I believe that these questions will make you successful because you are choosing to do right things instead of bad and this will lead you to a life of success. This will help other people believe that you are a trustworthy and responsible person and it will influence them to help you succeed.

“Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body; it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. The relationship between the soundness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know what the Greeks knew: that intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong.”- President John F. Kennedy

    

I think that this quote means that, having a healthy body results in having a healthier brain which then leads to higher intellectual capability. This results in overall health.  

             “Kindness is the essence of greatness.”

                                 - Joseph B. Wirthlin                                                  

I think that quote means that, if you are kind you will be great. For example, people that are not nice are the type of person that other people don’t consider great. If you are mean and you are rude and not ctr person, you will not be considered great by the others around you.

             “If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say.”

                                                                  

                                                       Marcus  Aurelius

I think that this quote means that, if there is something that is not true or that is not right, don’t do it or say it because it is not right. You are choosing the wrong and you are not being a ctr person. For example if there is a rumor going around, if you know that it’s not true, you should go spread the rumor even more.

“It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today.”

 James Freeman Clarke

I think that this quote means that, even if you think that doing the right thing today will not have any effect in the future. You must still do the right thing. It may end up giving a positive effect after all. You should also be a good person and do the right thing because if you don’t it may also end up having a negative effect and end up ruining you.

“Doing what is right, fair, and honorable is more important than winning 

or losing.” 

Chick Moorman

I think that this quote means that, if you do the wrong thing for example cheat on a test and you get
a good grade, you’re not really winning. On the other hand if you do what’s right and not cheat but
you don’t get a very good score, you are a true winner.
