“A promise must never be broken.”
-Alexander Hamilton

I strongly do agree with this quote from Mr.Hamilton because you should always keep your word no matter what. You need to be mature and take responsibility for yourself to keep a promise. Keeping a promise is a big responsibility because a person is giving you their trust and respect. Once you break a promise you will lose it. You are giving your word. If you say you’re going to do something or keep a secret then you have to do it no matter what comes in the way of that. Although there are times when I break some promises but I didn’t think it was a big deal for me but it was sure a big deal for the person who was trusting me. There are times when you should NEVER break a promise when that promise is really sentimental or deep. But in general you should never break a promise if you’re giving your word for it.

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”
-Henry David Thoreau


What this quote defines is that when you try everything and nothing seems to work out, goodness will be by your side. If you try out something with goodness, it will never fail. Henry David Thoreau says that it will always be by your side. If you invest in bad things then they will fail. If you invest in good things then they will never fail. Investing in good things is choosing the right. If you CTR 24/7 then you will be on the right track and be happy. If you CTW then you will not be a very good person. CTW will never leave you to good investments. Henry Thoreau was a CTR man. This man knew what was right and fought for people and took a stand for them.

To concentrate on what’s positive in your life such as respect, honesty, and a good name. These are things that sound good.  It’s better to make a trend of what’s right then something that is wrong so we can influence the younger generation so they can make better choices.

“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.”

“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.”

He was one of the Presidents of the United States. He had worked so hard and his hard work really did pay off. He certainly did not expect to win what he was trying to win. But he did try to do what was right as much as he could. One day he was working in a store as a clerk and  a lady gave him 6 ¼ cents by accident and when he noticed the error, he closed the store and walked 6 miles to return back the money to the lady. He was kind, generous, respectful, and true. He was one of the most appreciated and adored presidents to ever have and date. Many people doubted him and disliked.

"Character is higher than intellect."

“Character is higher than intellect.”
By: Ralph Waldo Emerson

Character is one of the most important things you can have. Also having a good name. It is a good thing you can do. Good character and having a good name includes being a CTR person. Character is something that we all have, whether it is good or bad depending on what we do. Anyone can be intelligent and have a good character. Or someone can be intelligent but not have a good character. Usually those who don’t have a good character but is intelligent become conceited and their good name crumbles. Usually people who are intelligent with a good name is a CTR person. And I think that’s what everybody should be going for if you wanted to be remembered by having a good name.

"I trust that my hard work will pay off."

"I trust that my hard work will pay off."
By: Tyler Haws

What this quote defines is that if you really put concentration into what you want to accomplish then you will succeed. Hard work always pays off. If you work hard then you will become better at what you are doing. Tyler Haws is an inspiration because he worked very hard and he knew that by doing so he would become a better basketball player. Most people think this quote refers only to sports or other things similar to sports. By working hard to gain something will allow you to work hard at everything. Being a hard worker takes effort and though everyone can do it, not many people try to do it. They put no type of effort at all. If you do good then you will have a good result. Everything you do will have an outcome whether it's good or bad. It's up to you. Hard work will pay off if you actually work hard.

"True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right."

"True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right."
-Brigham Young


When you have freedom and independence that means that you haven’t done anything wrong. When you are doing the right thing it’s what’s going to keep you your freedom and independence. For example, those who are in prison or jail are in there for a reason because they did something wrong. So if you do something illegal then you will forever get your freedom and independence taken away. You should always choose the right and try to keep your independence and freedom. The more you do right the more freedom you will have. If you do good you will build good trust bonds and build good character. The people who know you as a person who does right will not bother you and ask what you are doing.

“They’re only truly great who are truly good.” By: George Chapman

“They’re only truly great who are truly good.”
By: George Chapman

Those who do good are the best according to George Chapman. He is trying to say that those that always do the right thing are true winners because they aren’t cheating in any way nor doing something bad. He believes that those are the good people. The ones who cheat or choose the wrong are nothing. Greatness is the only thing that can be achieved by purity. If you are pure, then you are great. Being good is not easy, but it is not as hard as being bad.
