"My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy: you don't make them because they are cheap: you don't make them because they're  popular: you make them because they're right." Theodore Hesburg


Image result for theodore hesburghThis quote is pretty straight forward to be completely honest with you. He's implying that we should make decisions based on only one reason; which is to the right . So if its not the right reason then you shouldn't make the decisions based on it. For instance, like our teacher reminds of it constantly that we should learn and absorb on how we should chose the right 24/7. If we do the wrong thing then it would lead to consequences in the short term and the long term. If you knew that the decision that you are making on whether or not taking notes on the lesson. And being like I don't have to take good notes or any notes for that matter. I could always go the easy route and ask my friend , I don't know their name but their note taking skills will help me on the test. So I shouldn't have to worry about anything that she is telling us right now. That's wrong you chose the wrong and you made your decision based of it being easy and its a popular one that many individuals strive to take. Don't be a blender that gets caught up in the wrong side of the tracks. Be a leader that leads the people out of the tracks and in to the roads and the cities filled with many opportunities and chances to strive  to greatness.

Student Success Statement

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't right." Albert Einstein.

In my personal opinion, in a way I agree with what he is trying to imply to others. For instance like the video that was shown to us on how people in Australia are drinking and binge drinking ans they think is cool since it's popular and they don't think it's wrong. And another video that was shown to us was a retired real estate agent and barber is cutting hair and giving free hair make overs to homeless people at the park. And this might not be popular but is right. So this example of both parts of the quote that no matter what even if majority rules you stick to your opinion or your mindset if you know its wrong or in any way causing harm to you or to others. Another example is when you are in a relationship and you think it's right since everyone is doing it and your not ready for one and you are in a wrong toxic relationship. In other words, you are not mature enough or it's not the right time and you think your ready so you go through with it and you get in to a relationship. Well not all of them are perfect so you get in to one and guess what it's toxic and you think it's not since your friends and almost everyone you know is in one and they seem cool. And IT"S NOT COOL because you are in danger and you shouldn't be in that position, nor should anyone for that matter. Back to the quote just because it's popular doesn't mean it's right. Follow your gut and think about your actions before committing them.
