Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
“It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.”
-Anon

I think that the ego and pride of the human spirit makes us underestimate the power of peer pressure. As strong as our will is we are almost always inclined to fit in and be well liked.  Constant need of approval from people who we consider superior fills us with hope that one day we can be at the same level and go promptly beyond them. We want to surpass their status in a social level and that’s why we sometimes associate ourselves with negative company. They will influence us in a non-productive way. I rather be alone than to surround myself with people who want to sway me to be involved in illegal activities. Sometimes we need time to ourselves to self-meditate about our choices.
