“You can’t be right by doing wrong; you can’t be wrong by doing right”

-Thomas S. Monson

This quote is repetition to last semester. This quote says, doing the right thing will never be wrong, but doing the wrong thing will always be wrong. Thomas gives a great and clear explanation about doing the right. This quote basically endorses us to always choose the right, because it is never wrong. As said by Thomas, you can’t be wrong by doing right. What you do is wrong will be wrong and follow you everyone. Choosing the Right will always be right for its great feeling and positivity it shares with others. With choosing the right, you will feel great for choosing the correct decisions. Never choose the wrong, or else you will feel the guilt and not be happy. Doing the right will lead you nothing, but success and happiness.

A great example that can follow up with this briefly clear quote is obedience. Obedience can fall under choosing the right or choosing the wrong. Obedience usually is doing what is being asked or told for you. A great CTR example would be listening to your parents when they ask you to do something, that falls under a positive manner. Obedience is key and a step to choosing the right. Choosing the Right will drive you to a good path and positivity around you. Choosing the Right will never be wrong.

Patrick Kearon Personal Story

    In this story, it talked about the personal pain Patrick faced of a scorpion bite. His family were at a campsite in the desert, his parents told him to always wear shoes when he would walk out. This was an expectation and rule Patrick parents wanted him to face. One morning, Patrick decided he wanted to just walk around for a little bit, but instead of grabbing his shoes he wore his sandals.  He told himself, sandals are shoes. Before this decision making, he knew he was asked and expected to wear his shoes. For being a rebel and not following what he was asked he choose the wrong. Patrick actions led to consequences, his consequence was feeling pain in his legs from a scorpion bite. With pain and effort after this he yelled out for his parent, the nearest hospital was 2 hours away. Eventually he got to the hospital and they helped him out to avoid the pain and treat the bite. Patrick learned his lesson that day, what they tell you is for your own good. He learned that for being a rebel and lazy at the time he didn't do what was asked of him is for his own good and safety. Your bad actions have consequences. Always doing what is right, listening, helps prevent you from wrong.

“Always do right”

-Mark Twain

This three word statement is clearly said. From the words from Mark Twain,” Always do right”. What this statement is saying is to always choose the right. Being a CTR person gets you away from being a CTW person. Becoming a CTR person, you will always be able to identify the right from wrong. Having the ability of Choosing the Right gives you the ability to always do what is right. Doing wrong brings consequences, doing what is right brings you success and opportunities. Always doing the right brings you good in you life. When you do good you feel good. Choosing the Right is always doing right. Always doing the right gives you a good name and label on yourself. Good labels on yourself gives you a positive outlook to help you for a future opportunity and having good trust in others. Doing good helps you avoid the negativity and the guilt you can face, because your actions have consequences. When you do what is wrong, actions have consequences. These consequences can lead us to do wrong and have a bad image on yourself. Avoiding this can prevent mistrust of our bright future ahead of us.

A good example that will fit this quote is rules. Rules are given to us time to time and to add we have expectations. When we break rules and expectations others have for yourself we are doing wrong. Therefore, when we do what is right and follow expectations and rules we are doing right. Doing what is right will lead us to success. Other people in our life set up rules and expectation on us, because they know it will help us succeed. For example, teachers and staff members. Every teacher and staff member in the district and in high school want you to see each student graduate and have a future ahead of them. Every parent's desire is to see their children cross the stage and have a well future ahead of them. Always doing what is right will bring a good future.
