‘’A promise must never be broken.’’
Alexander Hamilton

This quote that we were given today is a way of life. A promise is a promise and if it's broken then people might not trust you no more. If you don't keep your word then your reputation might be ruined and everyone will see you differently. If you make a promise to someone they will be waiting for it to happen. If you want to keep your word then that's a really good decision. If you keep your word you're doing the right thing. But if you were to let people down because you didn't do your promise then that isn't really a good person to trust with responsibilities. You need to be careful with what you say because any word like promise can change the way someone acts towards you. A bad reputation is something that no one wants. People want to be trusted but if you were to promise to not tell no one about something and you do it then your reputation isn't something that someone would trust. If you make a promise you need to keep your word and do it. Lots of respect or even friends might avoid you for your lack of responsibility. Now when you keep your word people will trust you and count on you if they need help.

‘’My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right’’
Theodore Hesburgh

This quote that Theodore gave us is really something to look up to in anyone's daily life. Everyone in their lifetime has to make a decision whether it be hard or easy. Theodore is telling us that the reason why we make decisions is to do the correct thing. You should know whether you're making the right decisions or wrong decision. Many people don't make the right decision at times and that's when bad things start to happen. It’s always better to keep in mind of what you decision can do to you physically and mentally. Everyone makes mistakes at one point in their lives but there is no other reason why to keep on making the wrong mistakes or decisions. If you are aware that you decision will do something bad to you or another person you should feel guilty because all in all your the one who did the mistake of choosing the wrong decision.

‘’It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound’’
Joseph Smith

We have to focus on making our concentration into something good that everyone will get good from it. Instead of making it into something negative we should all put our effort into something good.  If you do good for even a stranger they will admire your kindness and respectfulness. Many people these days don't really do any good. They commit crimes that will affect a person. People need to be core considerate about what others feel  and instead of doing something bad and spreading the word you should do something that both you and the person will benefit from it.
Helping others is always something i admired. That is why i do it cause right after i help someone i feel more complete. It's always better to do something good and feel good about it rather than do something and and have the guilt following you.

‘’ I am not bound to win, but i am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he is wrong.’’
Abraham Lincoln

This wonderful quote that Abraham gave us explains that a true win doesn't mean you won, as long as you kept yourself true that's all that matters. It's quite remarkable and amazing how much trouble Abraham put himself through to pay everything off back. Not many people will do something like that these days. Abraham Lincoln left us a great way to act when something goes wrong and we should all admire what his kindness did for all those people.Many people these days wont even say sorry no more and it's quite a dishonor to this quote. If you left something undone or left behind don't hesitate to do it. If you do what you have to do then only good will come out of it. You can be playing a game but you won second place. The winner could have won because he was cheating but all you did was stay true to yourself so the real winner in this game is you because you decided to play by the rules and avoid what everyone hates cheating. All you have to do to stay true to yourself is to do whats right if its right. Avoid all that's bad and only good will come out of it. You'll succeed if you follow this wonderful quote.

‘’Character is higher than intellect’’
Ralph Waldo Emerson

This quote that Ralph gave us tells us that character is very important. It's quite turn because without good character then your reputation will look bad. With a bad reputation you won't be able to get anyone's trust. Character is very important even when you look or a job. They see how you handle things had they also see the way you treat other people. Without good character then you'll get fired out of your job really fast. You need to learn how to treat people respectively. There is another quote that can relate to this ‘’Treat others the way you want to be treated’’. I have followed this quote my entire life and i never had any problems. If you treat someone with respect they will treat you with respect but, if you treat someone with disrespect then they will treat you the same way. Also the way you act reflects on the way your parents raised you. You should avoid making your parents look bad and treat everyone with respect.

Tyler Haws
This quote that tyler gave us can me the quote of life. If you try a new sport, job, or instrument, you may not be experienced or perfect but with dedication anything is possible. Tyler is truly a good and wise person. All of his hard work paid off. All the practicing from 3rd grade to university he has been practicing. You will have hard times when trying to achieve what you want but anything in this world is possible. Tyler got kicked out of a basketball team when he was younger but yet he didn't give up.

‘’True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right.’’
Brigham Young

If you were to do what is right then you wouldn't have any worries chasing you. True freedom and independence and freedom come from doing good. Your freedom is depending on your decisions. If you were to do bad and get arrested then all your freedom will be taken no matter what. You should never do something that you will regret later on in life. It's always better to relax and choose the good path way before you go do bad things and go in the bad path way. Always try to avoid those who don't care about anything cause i'm pretty sure that they wont care about what happens to you later on in life. In fact them might drag you down with them. Be around people that have good grades and that they see the good in everything. The people you are around with might even determine your future so id rather choose the right and be around people that will make me a better person rather than a bad person that will bring you down with negativity.

‘’They’re only truly great who are truly good.’’
George Chapman

This statement that George gave us tell us that only those who are good are the the ones that are truly good. I don't know why it's hard for some people to do good. Sometimes it gets too hard for them and they just do the opposite. Only those who are great will be rewarded with good. It's always better to avoid what's bad because then you won't have any bad influences to bring you down. I like to think that doing good is a choice that you make. Only the ones who do good and see the good in things i'll be successful and have a bright future. Anyone in this world can be a very bad person but i'm sure that there is someone that can change that and if there isn't then maybe it's themselves that have to change their ways. Only those who work hard and try new educational hobbies will have such a bright and beautiful future in front of them.

‘’Many think that the short term gain will be the long term pain, but it isn't. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don't do it.’’
George Mitchell

This quote that George gave us can really do a big difference in our life if we were to do it. Whether you're a cheater in school or sports nothing will come out good in the end. That is why we have to avoid cheating. Nobody loves cheaters! Especially if it's someone you look up to and you found out that they were cheating in a sport for instance wouldn't you be devastated? I would be terrible if your someones inspiration and all they have been doing all along is cheating. Cheaters shouldn't be gave any honor or what they have done. Many people try to find the easy way out but they make the wrong decision and cheat. Its always better to do whats right cause then you will be honored. And for those who took the easy way out and cheated will be left in their own shame that they put on themselves. Always avoid taking the easy way out most of the time because it always involves doing something bad. You just have to be wise with yo decisions in life because you only get one. Your reputation will be ruined if you were know to be a cheater and what a horrible name to be called. Everyone will get away from you because they know what you have done so just avoid doing it now.
