Student Success Statement

“Character is higher than intellect.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you have a great brain such as being smart and everything but you have an ugly character than it doesn’t really matter if you're “intelligent” “intellect” because if you aren’t a good person and you don’t have a good character then what’s the point being smart will get you pretty far but as soon as they meet your characteristics they won’t like it. Being smart is not everything in this world you can end up in jail or doing something you shouldn’t do if you don’t have character. If your personality is not great then people wouldn’t want to accept you because they don’t like your character. You have be good in both it’s not just one you either are both or are one and nobody can take it or your one and you could end up in jail or anywhere you’re not suppose to end up in. Having personality is everything you have to have a great on in order to do many things because if you’re working and your boss doesn’t like your character even if you're the best of the best because you are smart he/she will still fire you because it’s something that you would need to be using on a daily basis. Just always choose the right and if you don’t have a great character / personality then try changing it’s for your own good not for anyone else but for yourself. You will be loved by everyone if you are intellect and you have great character you would be referred as the best employee/student/friend etc. Choose the right and you’ll become successful in life.
