Student Success statement

"I think it better to do right, even if we suffer in so doing, than to incur the reproach of our consciences and posterity." -Robert E. Lee

What he is saying is that you always choose the right when every day and even though you suffer, you should still choose the right.

7 habits of Highly Successful Teens Habit 7, part 2


7 habits of Highly Successful Teens Habit 7, part 2

Habit 7: Sharpen the saw
3. Heart: always do what is right so your heart, your conscience, will feel peaceful. When you do wrong, your conscience will prick you and create regretful sensations within your heart. When you do what you honestly feel, you won’t have any regrets compass--it give you direction and discernment. Just like a magnetic compass gives directions, even true north, your personal compass, your heart, will point you in the true north, the exact directions and paths you need to trod.
4. Soul: study scriptures and other sacred literature daily. In other words, feed your spirit because your spirit needs spiritual food just like your physical body needs temporal food to survive. Pondering, meditating, and reflecting are excellent Soul-sharpening activities. Try writing your thoughts, feelings, aspirations, concerns, and decisions in a diary or journal. Writing helps you focus and make good decisions.
Get in the habit of daily improving your body (physical fitness), your mind, your heart, and your soul.

Choose the Right!!!
