“To those of you who received honors, awards and distinctions, I say well done. And to the C students, I say you, too, can be president of the United States.” – George W. Bush

(My Thoughts:)

What this means is that in United States everyone has an opportunity and there is no failing to begin with. For example, let’s say you fail at something and think it is over and you give up. Later, that failure brings you to another opportunity which you end up succeeding. Therefore, you never really failed because you have succeeded at something else. Just because you don’t pass or do something average doesn’t mean it is over. It just means it is the new beginning to something else. Or it means you just got to try harder to make it to the top.

Soccer

When I was in a soccer team, I wasn’t that much of a great player but as a team we have received honors. Sometimes, when you combine one player with another you notice there is a spark that is shared together. Other times like sports of boxing there really is no teamwork other than during training. Even those times you realize who your team really is and how much effort they have put on you. Even if the sport doesn’t work out to you it doesn’t mean it’s over. Everything comes to a play together to move you to the next big thing.

School

If you don’t go to school or don’t do anything in life, maybe this is the time to try something. You will realize that it could be a new opportunity for your future. Anytime is a good time to go to school.

If you are at a failed point, you can always talk to a school counselor to see what you can to. At the end, there is no failing in life as long as you keep trying.
