“You will go far with CTR.”

Mr. Haymore

If you choose the right then you will go far in life, what haymore means by this is that he’s saying that if you always choose the right then you will succeed in life you will go far. Like if you make good choices all your life then it will lead you to great things because you’re obviously choosing the right. If you choose the right you should be expecting great things to happen in your life because you really deserve it. For example if you choose to do all your homework, study for all your tests , not procrastinating then you will do great in school. It also has to do with life choices if you want to mess up your life and choose the wrong for example your with a group of friends and you guys are just hanging out and all of a sudden someone says “let’s smoke, let’s have some fun stop being boring stop being miserable it will feel good trust me.” if you go along with it you will affect yourself and many other things it’s sad to think that there’s people out there that choose the wrong and think it’s only going to affect them it’s not you're affecting others if you choose the wrong not only your family but yourself. You have to also get rid of those friends that are trying to make you choose the wrong. The correct thing to do is leave right at the moment or just tell them no and if they keep bugging you just leave. Also if you continue to be there friend just tell them like if they want to still be friends they need to stop doing what they’re doing because it’s bad for them and because you’re their friend and you don’t want them to choose the wrong. Choosing the wrong in the real world won’t take you anywhere but jail or getting ignored by other people like when you want to get accepted somewhere or you want to be a part of some school or something they won’t feel sorry for you they will just tell you no they won’t care what your excuse is they will not accept anything. So try your best to not choose the wrong and always choose the right so you can get far in life. Because that’s all your family wants for you to get far in life.
