"Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself."- Henry Ward Beecher

What this quote means to me if you choose to have higher standards for yourself you will be more successful. If you choose low standards than you wont be as successful. If you set yourself for the minimum or the bottom then you wont get anything out of it. Although if you choose to set high standards for yourself than with hard work you will achieve more and be successful. Always shoot for the stars and try your hardest and not give up in order for you to achieve greatness. Never fall short or go for the minimum. What you put in  is what you are gonna get out. If you put in hard work then you will have good results. If you choose not to then you will get less results. Set high standards for yourself and your life will be better.

Thanksgiving is a day where people and families get together and spend time together and have a big Thanksgiving feast. Thanksgiving is the day to give thanks to things you have in life. Whether its money or a house or family. Thanksgiving is thought to have started back in 1618 when the Pilgrims and the Native Americans got together and made a big feast. Others believe Thanksgiving started off as a religious get together that was celebrated with prayer and is celebrated because an end to war and a drought. People stop working for a week and plan parties or little family get tog-ether's. They all give thanks for all they have and have fun as a family.

"If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it". - Marcus Aurelius

What this quote means to me is that lying and doing the wrong thing is wrong. You should avoid the bad choices in life and always do the right thing. Always choose to do and say the right thing no matter what. Doing the right will make you feel better than choosing the wrong. If you choose the wrong then you will get a bad feeling and you will regret it overtime. That's why you should always do the right thing instead of doing the wrong. If you do the right then you will be successful and be able to achieve more in life. If you dont then you will be miserable and never achieve anything in life.

"Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing."-Chick Moorman

What this quote means to me is that doing the right thing gives you a better feeling than winning.If you choose to do the right you get a good feeling inside that is way better than winning or losing. It doesn't matter if you win or lose as long as you choose to do the right thing. Anyone can one or lose but its better to do the right thing instead of winning or losing. It is more honorable to  do whats right.

" 1. Have the courage to say no.

2.Have the to face the truth.

3.Do the right thing because it is right."- W. Clement Stone

What this quote means to me is that you should always have the courage to say no when someone wants you to choose the wrong. For example if someone offers you weed or something bad and you know it is bad then have the courage to say no to that person. Also if you are caught in a lie then you should have the courage to tell the truth. For example if you are caught in a lie then confess that you chose the wrong and face the repercussion of your actions. You should always choose the right even if no one is with you. If you know that something is wrong dont do it and choose the right path. You choose the right because you know it is right. For example if you are offered to ditch school then dont do it because you know it is wrong, the right choice is to say no and go to school. You choose the right for yourself not for others. If you do this then you will have a happy life.

"He that walketh with wise men shall be wise; but a companion of fools shall be destroyed"-Proverbs 13:20

What this means to me is that if you choose to hang around wise people you will learn from them. If you choose to be with bad influences then you will be influenced by them. They will bring you down a bad path. Although if you choose the right path then you will be influenced by good people and be happy and successful. If you choose to hang around a mentor like people then you will be happy and successful. If you choose not to and hang around bad people then you will be miserable and get into trouble. Bad influences tend to get into a lot of trouble and if you choose to be with them then you will go down the wrong path and also get in trouble. If you choose to hang out with good smart people then you will learn from them and get into good habits. They can help you go down a happy road and lead you to great places.

"The best recreation is to do good"-William Penn

What this quote means to me is that doing good gives you the best feeling in the world. For example if you help someone that needs help you get a feeling of happiness after. Not because the person you helped said anything or gave you anything but because you get the satisfaction of helping someone and you know you did good.

"Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it"-William Penn

What this quote means is that choosing the right is always right even if nobody is with you. Choosing the wrong is wrong even if everyone chooses the wrong. You have to choose the right no matter if you stand alone. If you know that one of your choices is right and everyone else doesn't follow you and they choose to do the wrong thing then you walk your own path. When you choose the right path then you will be successful. If you choose the wrong your going the wrong path and you will be miserable. For example a bully and his group of friends. If the bully is bullying someone and you let them bully that person just to not standout. Then you are choosing the wrong by not helping. Although, if you choose to help the person getting bullied and you help stand up for what is right. Then you are choosing the right no matter if you stand alone.
