Student success statement

“We become what we think about”

Earl Nightingale

Reflection: what I think this quote means is if you’re set your mind to what you want to be then most likely you will become it.

Example: for example if someone wants to be a teacher then you will do your most hardest to become it.

Student success statement

“Good thoughts bear good fruit. Bad thoughts bear bad fruit”

James Allen

Reflection: what I think this quote means is if you think of choosing the right then your mind will have a habit of doing the right thing and being a good fruit. But if you do bad things and choose the wrong then you will have a habit of doing wrong and your mind will be a bad fruit.  

Example: for example if you steal something you think you can do it again and again and will get a habit of doing it. but if you choose the right thing by not stealing then you will stay good.
