Student Success Statement

"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy.I was trying to do what was right."

-Dean Smith

Reflection:
When he decided to choose the right nothing but success followed him. Dean Smith was a basketball coach who emphasized the importance of teaching his players good character. It was not important to him whether to win or lose, because they were still winners at heart. The only thing that Dean Smith did stress was teamwork. Dean had written a letter to all on his players atleast once a year. It was either on Christmas, Birthdays, Weddings, or Special Occasions. This shows how kind of a man he was, and never has he forgot to write to any one of them, not even once. Dean Smith chose the right throughout his life in many ways.First of all he chose the right by transforming his basketball players into men who had potential. He touched the lives of every single one of them. By doing this he also showed them the importance of playing basketball was not to win, but to try their best by working together. Dean Smith was a great man and has affected his players dearly. Dean Smith did not ask for appreciation, but those who knew him, knew that he deserved it.Dean Smith was awarded many times, but the true meaning behind all his awards is that he chose the right 24/7. An example of this could be that Dean was so humble, he didn't feel that he deserves the stadium that was built in his honor.

Educating the body, mind and character

"Of all the work that is done for our country, the greatest is that of educating the BODY, the MIND, and above all the CHARACTER, giving spiritual and moral training to those who in a few years are themselves to decide the destinies of the nation"

-Theodore Roosevelt

Reflection:

To me this quote means that teaching everyone the values of life is one of the greatest changes one can do. I do think that change in our country has to do alot with the way a person thinks which is mind, the way a person is which is charter and by your self. For example if there is a homeless dude who has no morals and no ctr character the best way to help him is by giving him reasons on why having good character and mind settle up for a better change. When you decide to change your mind many things can go the way you planned it to be.

Start and Continue

"We need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do."

-Richard L. Evans

Reflection:

What I think of this quote is that I agree with it. To start and continue something means that you're not going to give up on yourself. We also do need the courage to stop doing what we shouldn't do and speak up, not only for your self but also for those who need help. This quote can and will be used throughout my lifetime because it will always remind me to have courage to do things.
