Conclusion:

If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world - Chinese Proverb

This statement means that if everyone is a CTR person, there would be peace in the world.This statement also tries to inform people about how we can have peace in the world. It all starts with having a beautiful character. That means being honest, responsible and respectful. That will bring peace in your home, which means that there are no problems. Then it is more likely that you will treat other people who do not live in your home caring and respectfully. That makes other people treat others with love and respect. Soon everyone will be treating everyone the way they are supposed to. That brings order to the nation. Having nations at peace means no conflict and that means there are no wars. That means peace in the world. It all begins with individuals who have a beautiful character. And the only reason why wars are made is because people are not aware of what they do. It is better to create a world of happiness and not a world of fear. We need to work together as a country to bring peace.

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder“ - Thomas Carlyle

I believe Thomas Carlyle is trying to say that someone without a goal doesn’t have a way to move ahead in life. The person will not be able to function as well in comparison to having goals that guide them in the right direction. Correct goals make a person go in the right direction. Such as having a goal to become a doctor. You will have to study, get good grades, go to college maybe even medical school. That's the right way to lead. The right goal will lead you to the success of life and you will go away, having a goal is like a dream that you want to make it come true but you have to go for it. The ship is to you as the rudder is to your goal.

Forgive

“When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.” - Alan Pat0n

This statement means that the only way we can heal is by forgiving.If something tragic in your life happens and you feel as if someone’s to blame, you should try and forgive them. Not forgiving them will only lead you to bitterness. You will never feel satisfied with their consequence. For instance, your dog got lost because your sister was being careless and left the gate door open. You can always be angry at her for losing your dog that has been with you for years and was like family or you can forgive her. The only way to heal from that is by forgiving.

Do right

“Dare to do right” - Rex D. Pinegar

This statement means that you should only be dared to do right. If you get dared to do something wrong, you shouldn’t do it. You must take on that dare because it's a dare that makes you choose the right. If someone dares you to jump off a cliff, you shouldn’t do it.  You should not do it because you are not being courageous if you jump off that cliff you are being reckless. You are just putting your life in danger.If you say no to the dare you are being brave than actually accepting the dare because you are saying no to people and being at risk of being fun off. You should only dare to do right.

Stand alone

“Dare to stand alone”- Thomas S. Monson

I believe that this statement means that if you believe whatever you want to believe, then you have to stand alone. An example is if you see someone smoking, you shouldn’t do with them. You should not be afraid to stand alone. If you feel as if everyone is making the wrong choice then you should not go along with choosing others to do just because everyone is making that choice and you think they should go along because everyone is going along. If you firmly believe that it is the right choice then you should not be afraid to be alone.

“If I’ve got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I’m going to succeed” - Dan Dierdorf

The statement explains that if you have goals and do everything you can to achieve your goals by choosing the right one, then all the good that is supposed to happen will happen. Your goals should be the right goals like going to college. Don’t choose the wrong and try drugs. You also have to try your best to complete your goals. For example, if your goal is to go to college then you should get good grades. You should not have your goal of going to college and then be failing each class. Doing the right thing means you're going to be successful. It does not mean that you will be very rich, it means you will succeed in being a good person. You also have to act like a CTR person and pursue your goals no matter what.

Four Success tips

Phillip Riggs’ Four Success Tips

1. Work Hard
2. Follow your passions. Do things you are interested in doing
3. Don’t chase after money.
4. Serve others. Do good things for others, and good things will come to you.

I think that these success tips mean that you need to work hard and make sacrifices to be successful. His tips can be easily followed and easily learned. The first one is just to work hard, which we could all do if we are not lazy. The second tip is to do something you are interested in. This can be a passion you have. The third tip is to not just do something for money. The fourth and final tip that Phillips Riggs gave us was to treat others the way you would want to be treated. When you do good things, good things will happen to you. These steps also are related to choosing the right.

The right thing

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.” - Theodore Roosevelt

I believe that this statement means that when it’s time to make a decision, you should choose the right one. For example, a person in front of you may have dropped $ 5 and did not notice. You have two options to not tell them anything and keep the money or tell them you dropped their $ 5 and give them your money. The correct option would be to tell them that they dropped their $ 5 but the wrong choice can be tempting. Maybe it may seem like it's not much money and they can get $ 5 elsewhere, but just because it does not seem like a lot of money so that's not the right choice. Choosing the right is the best choice.

Nothing

“Nothing is ever gained in doing what’s wrong.” - Wilford Woodruff

I believe this statement means that you get nothing out of choosing the wrong. The only way you can gain things is by choosing the right. An example is how a european soccer player won a lot of money which he used to buy alcohol which eventually led to his death. Another example is if you steal you may feel guilty because you stole from someone who may need help. And also what you stole is not yours and you do not deserve it. Everything we do has a success later, but it has to be good because if you do it wrong then the reward will be bad too. Whatever you gain brought to you by choosing the right.

Do the right thing at the right time

“It’s A GREAT MOMENT when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time.” - Pam Knox

I think that this statement means that when you know you messed up, you should own up to your mistakes. For example, when you see someone drop their wallet. You must choose the right and be the one to return to them their wallet. You should follow Pam's advice and do the right thing at the right time. It doesn’t matter what you lose when you do the right thing because, you will become a better character, which is more important than anything. That is the most important goal in life.

Word of honor

“I have been asked what I mean by ‘word of honor’ I will tell you: Place me behind prison walls - walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground - there is a possibility that in some way or another I might be able to escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it. Can I get out of that circle? No, never! I’d die first.” - Karl G. Maeser

This long statement means that word of honor is about being a man of your word. If you say you’re going to do something, then you are going to do it. This should be something that everyone should do. For example, if you give your word of honor to your group you will do your part, you should do it. Firstly, you said you would and since you did not do your part of your group you will get a lower grade. This applies not only to the school, but also to everyday life. Such as if you make a promise to a friend or family member you should keep it.

10 Indian Commandments

10 Indian Commandments

I think that the 10 indian commandments are all about choosing the right. They also show how to treat others with respect.

Many people might choose to take it without thinking twice. But, if these are some of the commandments we live by, we might not feel so right about taking it. Another example on why living by these commandments would be good is because we wouldn't be polluting the world so much. Many people care about the Earth and want to help fight against pollution. But, we live in a time of age where pollution isn't something we could stop so easily. There are many factories that pollute a lot to give us things we want like cars and phones and electricity. But, if we lived by these rules we would be more focused on finding clean ways on how to make electricity.

A promise

“A promise must never be broken” - Alexander Hamilton

I think that this statement means that every promise that you make should never be broken. When you say that you are going to say something you must do it. When you say that you're going to do something, whether or not you said promise, it’s still a promise. When you break a promise, you are breaking your word. You will feel disappointed if a friend was to break a promise so you shouldn’t break your promises either. An example of this can be when your friend promises that they will not spread your secret. If they were to break their promise and tell everyone about it, you will definitely be disappointed in your friend. If you don’t like it when people break promises they make with you then you should also keep your promises and be loyal to your word.

Goodness

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

This statement means that you will never fail if you invest in goodness. An example of this is that if you are a kind person in school, you will never fail because it is the good thing to do. Don’t expect anything so you never feel bad. Instead, you feel good because you did something good and you helped someone or did something good. For example, help a friend who is in need, even when they do not ask you too much. Do not expect anything, but you will always be grateful. They can even help you when you are in need. It's like karma. You do something good,something good will come to you.

Sound & Good

“It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound” (not good) - Joseph Smith

I think that this statement means that we need to make everything that spreads good messages more popular. However, everything that is bad and spreads hatred need to be unpopular.The statement explains that we should tell others or try to influence them to do the right thing. Let people know, especially children what is right and wrong to do. It also should not be popular to make drugs. It should not be popular to leave school and not listen to your parents. Just as if a celebrity had to behave in an inappropriate way that makes it look like it was great to behave that way. People should send a positive message to children and adolescents who idolize them. It should be popular to be kind, respectful, trustworthy and responsible. The things that are right should be popular not the wrong things. Even teens should tell their friends that it is not cool not to do their homework. We must make them to be a popular and cool CTR person in their place for their own good. If you are a CTR person you should teach them your steps and follow you to be a CTR person.

Be True

Be True

“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.” - Abraham Lincoln

I think that this statement means that you should always side with the person who always chooses the right. Surround yourself with positive people and part ways with the people that do things that do wrong. This clarification means that you must be with the people who always support you. They are with you because in reality you are one like them. Those are the people who are always with you or rather they are people who help you, because they understand. The statement also says that not only is winning but also doing the right thing to receive with honor the success of what you did.

Character

“Character is higher than intellect.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

This statement means that having good character is better than having intellect. This is so important because most people know that character matters a lot when it needs its presence. For example when you are doing something and you get angry or do things that other people then see that your character is not correct, that is wrong because you always have to have good character to solve things or simply let go of that courage. Having good character matters a lot because sometimes you get things faster or you do things right.

Hard work

“I trust that my hard work will pay off“ - Tyler Haws

This statement means that when you work hard good things will happen for you. An example of Tyler is good, because he proposed to work hard with his dad and managed to be in a college basketball team. That's good because you realize that when you want you can do it. I am following the example of Tyler because I am also practicing hard with my dad and to be successful in my future and someday thank him to my parents. I want to be the best player I can be and in order to think like that, you have to work very hard.

The truly good

“They’re only truly great who are truly good” - George Chapman

This statement means that people who are great at something are good people. This quote stated by the poet George Chapman is truthful in the sense that what he is saying is believable. If you are not truly good, then it seems as you are not truly great. First, you have to be good before you can be great. An example of this is when you are playing a sport. First you may be bad at it, but then you will get better and be good, and over time you will become great. This quote can be said for almost every single activity. Practice is what makes you great. But you also have to be a CTR person.

No way

“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. - George Mitchell

This statement means that cheating isn’t worth it. If you want to successful in life then do everything fair and square. If you want to be good at something than practice and work hard. Don’t become a cheater because no one likes a cheater. If people find out that you cheated to be at the top, everyone will see you in a different light and no one will respect you.
