"Enthusiasm makes the difference."


"Enthusiasm makes the difference."
By: Dr. Norman Vincent Peale 

What I understand about this quote from Dr. Norman Vincent Peale is that when someone has different feelings, you act and express different towards somebody or yourself. Being enthusiastic can make a big impact in your life and in others as well. You need to have enthusiasm if you are waiting to have success. For example, having enthusiasm could mean having a very positive attitude that doesn't like to fall and give up. It's important for all of us to have positive attitudes and not negative because when something becomes hard, most likely people will quit or give up. The key is to never give up because with joy and hard work, we will accomplish whatever becomes hard. As of right now I have many goals that i want to accomplish them with hard work. Enthusiasm can really be a big help for a great future when you are using it the right way. For instance, you have to have the enthusiasm in class that you are going to pay attention so you can understand the classwork and homework. You should be joyful. Nothing good will ever come from being upset. Good things will happen to those who do the right thing and who are happy.

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

I wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what's right."
By: Dean Smith
  What i understand is that all he wanted to do was the right. He wasn't trying to leave a legacy. He just wanted people to do whats right. He never intended to leave his named marked, he wanted to have people do whats right for others. He was a ctr person. An example would be that he made alot of players go to the NBA. He left a legacy because he was being rewarded, that he choose the right. And people wanted to remember him. so they named a stadium after him. He had to be rewarded for ctr.

"We need the courage to START and CONTINUE what we should do, and the courage to STOP what we shouldn't do."

"We need the courage to START and CONTINUE what we should do, and the courage to STOP what we shouldn't do."
By: Richard L. Evan 

What this quote defines is that people need enough courage to start and continue to do what's right. It's important to lead yourself to the correct path. The key to success is the choose the right and that's why you need to always do things that right. To those who are leading their self to the wrong path to failure, needs to get encouraged top stop doing what they are doing and help them to do what they are supposed to do. You always need start and continue to do what's right and never stop. Doing the right thing should be a priority. It's essential to choose the right. Doing the right thing will make yourself right. You should do it all the time no matter what situation you're in. For example, if you're with your friends and they invite you go smoke and get high, you should refuse to go because doing drugs is not right. You can get addicted easily even your first time trying it. And you should avoid those type people who do drugs because they will try to force you to take drugs and will affect your life. Another example for doing the right is to always study and prepare yourself for college to be successful in the future.

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

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


This quote means that if you feel that something is not right, you shouldn't do it because after you'll feel guilt and it is the wrong thing to do. It's also saying that if you hear anything like for example a rumor about anyone, you should not say it because it is not true. You wouldn't want anyone to say anything about knowing if it's true or not. You shouldn't do any of these things because that is choosing the wrong and you will have to go through some bad consequences if you get caught. There are many consequences when you choose the wrong and you don't want to go through them because you will regret it. If you choose the right you will be rewarded. You shouldn't be doing something that isn't right and making up stuff if you know it's not true. This quote is amazing because it's showing us that we shouldn't pay attention to the bad decisions people have said, put to correct those people on their own mistakes. If you know what you're doing is wrong, do the opposite and do the right thing. Doing what is right and saying what is right is always the best thing to do. The reason why is because if you choose the right, good comes your way and you will always have success in your life. In my opinion, this is a good quote from Marcus Aurelius. People should consider it because talking what is not true and choosing what is not right can affect your life.

"The best recreation is to do good."

"The best recreation is to do good."
By: William Penn

I agree with this statement because you should always do the right thing. When you do the right thing, you feel good. Doing good will not only help you, but it will help others as well. You should be positive about your life and do good things. Doing the right thing always lets you have fun and enjoy everything in a safe way. What I think this quote is trying to say is that your best action of how you are as a human is the best when you just do it for enjoyment. For example, when you are in leisure just to be good for fun you don't have to try hard just to show that you are a good person for everybody else. Just be good yourself. You should always make the right choices even when everyone is against it. Always go with what you know is right and never go with what you know is wrong. You should always choose the right because you'll feel good after. You want to be a good person who is always doing the right thing.
