My Basic Principle

"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 are right.

I agree with this quote because it you need to choose the right no matter what is happening because it is the right thing to do. This quote means that people don't make decisions because they're easy, cheap, or popular you need to choose them because there the right choices that will lead you to succeed. I mean succeed because the more you try the more good opportunities in life you will get, the more people will admire you, and the more respect you will earn. Like for example the cowboy who stopped a rover from stealing a ladies bike in Walmart. He heard a lady screaming for her stolen bike he saw the rover and decided to go after him he used his rope and he caught him. I used this example because it is teaching others that you can just be yourself and follow your heart to choose the right and not because you are feeling pressured to.

I am not bound....

"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 agree with the quote because people who are honest succeed more in life because they can earn a persons trust and friendship. This quote means that it doesn't matter if you win what matters most is they type of character you are. Meaning that people should be honest and support others because you can prove that you are choosing the right. Just like Abraham Lincoln he borrowed a book about George Washington from his neighbor the book got damaged because of the rain. He decided it was best to work for 3 days in the cornfields in order for him to repay the book. He did good stuff because he is choosing the right and he is showing people that he is not like the rest. Like for example some layers just want money and then run away without even solving a case. Which I mean is that there going to get a bad reputation because of that and later they will get a pay back for the bad choice they did. If you do a good act of kindness then you will get payed with something good in return but better of all you will be remembered by people for being honest and kind.

Character is higher than intellect

"Character is higher than intellect"

This quote means that the good manners you have are much more important than intelligence. Good manners is having good character and doing greats acts of kindness towards others. Intellect is having intelligence and having great thinking. The reason why character is more important is because people focus more on the manners you have than your intelligence because they see if you can work well with others or not. Like for example, the North Carolina coach he chooses people who have talent, character, and are intellectual. What means that if you don't require to have the three things he expects you to have then he will not want you on his team. The more of a good character you have, the more greater things you can achieve in life.

I trust that my hard work will pay off

"I trust that my hard work will pay off"

I agree with Tyler Haws statement because hard work does get payed on having a better achievement. This quote means that it doesn't matter how hard or tired you get because by trying you get to complete your goals. An example for this will be waking up for school everyday early, It doesn't matter because we're getting an education and we know that we will achieve in life because we try so hard. Having confidence in yourself can help you achieve because you don't give up and complete those goals/dreams you can have in life.

He got a chance to complete his goal in being a missioner in the Philippines for 2-years.

They're only truly great, who are truly good

"They're only truly great, who are truly good"

This quote means that real people are the only ones who do choose the right. Doing truly great is making good decisions. Truly good means people who have a kind hear to help others. An example would be the kid who had a disability and he wanted to be on the football team. The time he got accepted he made a touch down for the team. They are doing truly because they accepted people no matter in what condition they have. They choose the right because they are giving others opportunities and rise and be known.

Many think that....

"Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain but it isn't. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don't do it."

This quote means that the little mistake a person does it can affect them for life because they will still feel guilty about it. Using steroids is wrong because is known as cheating and because it can affect a persons body. Mostly baseball players or people who run in the Olympics use steroids because they want to do a record and be well known. An example would be this baseball player who did more than 62 home runs in a season which means that he got more fame and got a higher salary. But, he ended feeling guilty that he told everyone the mistake he did and how sorry he was. The bad decisions people make in the past will affect them in the future because they can get fired and no one will want to hire them on their job. For the athletes the medals or trophies they get, get taken away because they don't even deserve them for breaking the rules.
