Student Success Statement 
"Only I can change my life"
-Carol Burnett

This quote has a lot of power when you really think about it. It may be a 6 word quote but the potential this quote has is immense. What this quote means is that you are the creator of your life you make the life you choose to have you are the one responsible for the actions you decide to take and if you are living a very poor life that's because you attracted that to yourself your thoughts and actions are the ones that brought you there and you have the capacity to switch it all around if you are committed and up for it. An example would be, You have a really bad habit of smoking cigarettes and you know the effects they will do you your body but you can't stop for which ever reason. You have the capability to change it and replace it with a better and healthier habit. All you have to do is think about what you want to do rather than what you don't want to do.

Student Success Statement 
"You have only always to do what is right. It will become easier by practice, and you enjoy in the midst of your trails the pleasure of an approving conscience"
- Robert E. Lee

In my opinion, I believe this quote is talking about how to make choosing the right a habit instead of an option. Choosing the right can give you some type of stress relief and make you feel good and confident about yourself. You will have a clean conscience when doing the right which can help improve your self esteem, feel gratitude and a feeling of pleasure if you will. Having a clean conscience is a good way to live life rather than feeling remorse or sorrow so choose the right. Overall I agree with this quote, let choosing the right become a habit rather than a choice and always feel good. Always start your day off with a good deed and end up being in a good mood all day. Choosing the right can get you very far, making the right choices helps your career. Doing the right shouldn't be something to think about very long, not even to think about at all and just do. When you look back in your life you want to feel pleased with the decisions made and that they were the right decisions and feel proud of yourself for not struggling in whether doing the right and just doing it. An example of this quote is when you help an old lady cross the street after doing the deed you will feel good about yourself no matter what because you at least accomplished something during the day. Always choose the right and never go back.
