Student Success Statement

“When you tell one lie, it leads to another”
-Paul Hatch
Lying is not part of being a CTR person. Lying is something that once it’s done it will be repeating. Lying is a bad habit to develop and will be repeated more than once. Lying isn’t a good thing to do, it breaks reality and the truth. What this quote by Paul was said and his video, lying is done more than once. In Paul’s video, he gave very good reasons why lying is bad and what it leads too. As said as our Student Success Statement,’ When you tell one lie it leads to another”.  Repetition happens when telling lies and then your lies start to build up. When you lie it’s bad in every way, because you're not telling the truth. After telling one lie you can’t stop, so you eventually end up doing many more.  Lies can get you caught up with the truth that eventually you won’t know what was really said and can get you in even more trouble. Lying is a way to being a CTW person.

A great example that follows up this quote is cheating. I find cheating a way as lying, because you're being unfair and lying on the actions you are doing. A great example of cheating is when you're in a game or you're watching a game and you see something unusual. When you see cheating occurring you are committing actions that don't really represent the reality of you. Cheating is a form of lying, because you are lying about your actions. When lying about your actions that can get you somewhere in life, doors close. When you lie you are closing opportunities for yourself. Your actions have consequences.

Student Success Statement

“Honesty is the best policy”
-Mark Twain
Honesty is the best best policy. This statement is very well stated. Honesty is the best way to live your lifetime with good. What this statement is saying is, honesty is key as well. Honesty is a key to live with good and positivism around you. On that note, if you lie you will receive the opposite of honesty. Lying will bring you negativity and will no open so many doors for you in the future. As for honesty, it opens up doors for you and give you integrity. What is honesty? Honesty is accepting your own actions and responsibilities with integrity. Integrity is honesty. Honesty is choosing the right. Honesty brings you well.

Honesty brings good on you, it provides you a good label and brings you more guarantee in trust. A great example of honesty is when you take a test. Based on your final score it is what you give to get. What you give is what you get. Because honesty is like integrity, let's say you failed the test and you were not satisfied and you cheated because you wanted to pass. With the qualities of choosing the right, having integrity, and being honest you will face the consequences and accept the responsibility of your action. This example provides the action of taking full responsibility of our actions, having integrity, and being honest. This example fits great, because as teenagers we will face throughout our years and choose bad choices.  This quote help us to keep in mind what its the best, because connect to the example it can get worse. For example, lets say you lied saying you didn't cheat and you gave it your effort. When they find out you lied your consequences will even be worse, using honesty it will liberate you facing that.
