Student Success Statement #34


Student Success Statement  
“It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and (to make) unpopular that which is unsound (and not good).”
                                        -Joseph Smith


Reflection:
I think that this statement is trying to say that people should choose the right all the time even if people make it seem as it is the worst choice to do. I believe that when people choose the right they are choosing the best choice because they are choosing the choice that will make them feel really good about themselves because they chose the right thing to do. Sometimes people think that doing what the popular people do is the best thing to do because they are popular and they should know what to do, but that is a lie. Just because doing the wrong is popular and a lot of people do the wrong thing doesn't mean that it is the best thing to do. For example if people decide to not do their homework and they tell others to not do it as well, then don't listen them because they are just doing what they think will make them look cool.
