Student Success Statement

                           Student Success Statement

"I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that i would change it"
                               Dr. Ben Carson

Reflection: This is an incredible quote from Ben Carson. It is your choice if you want to live in poverty. No one chooses to live in poverty, maybe you come from a poor family but it is your choice if you want to stay in it. You can work really hard and become successful so you wont have to be in poverty. I am not living in poverty but i want to become successful. Being successful benefits a person in many ways. A person can become rich, they will be respected and they will be loved. Ben Carson didn't choose to live in poverty, that's how it was. He worked really hard and became a doctor who is very successful. He was a horrible student when he was young but  he became a doctor. He didn't give up, he pushed him self harder and became very successful. He is honestly a big inspiration on many people,especially children.
