Student Success Statement

“Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG IS NEVER RIGHT.”
-Russell M. Nelson
This quote is very clear stated, what this quote says is being a follower isn’t going to do much good for you. Doing what is not the correct thing to do will never be the right thing to do, even if everyone is doing it. Russell quote is very well stated and it does apply to a lot of what happens in the world today. As said by Mr. Nelson, doing what others do will never be the right thing to do. Doing what others do, especially if you know it’s wrong, will never make it the correct thing to do. The only thing it will do is just make the problem a bigger thing to handle. Choosing the wrong will always be wrong, even if millions of people will do it. We live by a set of rules and laws that contribute to the best for us, if not followed it can cause us problems leading to consequences. Choosing the right will never be considered wrong. Being a CTR person will lead you to a path of greatness. Don’t be a bad follower and do what you know is best.
A great example that would fit in this situation is peer pressure to do drugs. Doing drugs will always be bad, you doing it will not make it any better. Peer pressure isn’t always the brightest thing in the world, but we need to control it. Being peer pressured to drug is an act of CTW. In this situation you are forcing someone to do something they shouldn’t and you are encouraging them to do something that is wrong. The best thing to do is this situation is ignore it, walk away, etc to not commit an act of wrong.Who cares if everyone is doing it, wrong will never be considered right.
