Student Success Statement: Rex D. Pinegar

“ Dare to do right.”-Rex D. Pinegar

The significance of this quote is to do the right thing at all times. To do the right thing every second of every day. No matter how bad the situation is, you have to make the right choice. Not only for other people but for you as well. You want to be brave, and show kindness. There is never a need to be cruel or rude. Be the mature person and do what’s right. The only way to solve something is to make the right choice. Nothing good comes out of making the wrong choice. There are consequences that come with making the wrong choice, but there is never something good that you get out of it. When you make the right choice you feel good, but when you do bad you feel horrendous.

Student Success Statement: Thomas S. Monson

“ Dare to stand alone.”-Thomas S. Monson

This quote from Thomas Monson has such great significance. It can have many meanings or things to relate to. But the one that stands out to me is to say what you think is right. And to stand up or believe in what you think is right. No matter what others think you do what you want. Even if no one agrees with you. Do what you think is good for you and other people. It doesn’t matter if you stand alone, if no one is on your side. I believe choices are meant to be taken seriously because they can affect your life as easily as it was to make the choice. We need to have courage and be brave. We also need to be kind, and think positive. Although at times it can get hard and frustrating, we just need to remember that it will pass. Try to think positive about the situation, and try to think it out before you act on impulse.

Barnes and Noble

My topic is a book store known as barnes and noble.

I chose this topic because I like reading and buying new books almost every week. Barnes and noble is a book store. This is a fortunate 500 company. It is the largest retail bookseller in the United States and a retailer of content. The company operates 638 retail stores in all 50 U.S. States. Barnes and noble originated in 1886 with a bookstore called Author Hinds and company. In 1894, Noble was named a partner, and the name was Hinds & Noble. Barnes and noble publishes some of the books it sells, reprinting non-copyrighted titles. The company has expanded its publishing operation. Barnes and noble hires community business development managers to engage in community outreach. The manager's responsibilities involve organizing in-store events, such as author appearances. I have actually been to meet Lily Collins at Barnes and Noble for her first book release. The manager also organizes children story times and book groups. Barnes and noble also host book fairs which raises funds for schools and libraries. Most stores sell books, magazines, newspaper, DVD’s, graphic novels, games, Nook e-readers and technology.

Student Success Statement: Dan Dierdorf

“ 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

I agree with Dan Dierdorf with this statement. Our goals are what we want to do and achieve in life. Our goals are meant to keep us doing right things all the time without hesitation. Our goals are meant to be good and pure instead of wrong one’s. We have to give in all of our best if we want to succeed in life. We have to give in all our best throughout the way. We have to try and not do it wrong the first time or we will have to do it again from the beginning. And there are consequences that come within doing things the wrong way. This quote states that if we do the right thing everything in your life will be good. But it also states that we have to give in our best in everything. And i believe this is true, we have to work hard to get or achieve something. All good things come to those who work hard.
