Student Success Statement
“Nothing in the world can take the place
of Persistence.
TALENT will not; nothing is more common
than unsuccessful men with talent.
GENIUS will not; unrewarded genius is
almost a proverb.
EDUCATION will not; the world is full of
educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are
omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems
of the human race.”
President Calvin Coolidge
30th president of
US (1872-1933)
Reflection:
What this
quote means is that not everything in life is easy. Being smart doesn’t mean
you are going to be successful. You have to fail once to be successful and be
someone great in life. Life Is for you to fail at least once and to be able to
say that you are successful. When your feeling like your not successful just
remember Abraham Lincoln had his struggles in life and he was really
successful. So always choose the right.
