Student Success Statement

"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in DETERMINATION."

Tommy Lasorda

This quote is saying there is nothing impossible to stop you from succeeding. Determination is the key to being successful. Determination is being hard work ethic, being positive, having confidence and being excited about it. Nothing is impossible in this world. Everything is possible and this quote gives us the idea how. You just need to have determination! For example if you are an average B student but wants straight A's it can happen as long as you are determined and motivated about it. Getting straight A's isnt difficult unless you pay no attention to it. 

Student Success Statement

"Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. 

TALENT will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

GENIUS will not: unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

EDUCATION will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

- President Calvin Coolidge 

This quote by our 30th president is saying no matter how talented, smart, or educated you are you wont succeed in life without you being persistence. Its about failing in something you love but getting back up and continue trying. Its about the determination to know that you can succeed even if you fail. The determination of knowing you can do something others think is impossible. It shouldn't matter how smart, talented, or educated you are, it's about not giving up. Some people quit after the first time they fail something but it shouldn't be like that. You shouldn't give up after the first time you failed. You should be determine that the next time you do it you will succeed.
