Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
"It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference."
Paul Bear Bryant
This quote is saying if you just say "we're going to win, we're going win" is good you are confident but  it won't make the difference. You make a difference when you actually prepare for something you want to do. You sacrifice other non important things because you want to succeed in something you really want. Being prepared will help you succeed instead of just saying " i know i'm going to do this right etc." Always be prepared, there is a much higher chance you will succeed. Even if you don't win, you will be proud of yourself for trying your best. Preparing yourself will make the difference you want.
