3. An Example of Above The Line and Below The Line.
Now decide. I would
recommend you
choosing what is more
positive. Something that

yourself in the

that changes the past.

4. An Example of Someone Being Above the Line.
This guy is taking
responsibility of
studying for an
exam he might have
the next day or so.
Instead of him going
out to drink or do
drugs he is being
independent and
doing what is
right, not harming
himself or others.

5. An Example of Someone Being Below the Line.
The brothers. They are showing bad sportsmanship by yelling at each other just
because the Ravens were winning. Instead of just accepting the fact the 49ner
Coach was just upset and blaming his brother for something wasn’t even his
fault.

7. A Quote
"When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks
for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bulls-eye
is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim.
Improve yourself."
-Gilbert Arland
You are responsible for you. It is nobody else's fault if
you make a mistake. Do what is right for yourself.
When you make a mistake don't blame others, when
really it is you to blame yourself and realize; analyze
why you chose to do that. Be honest with yourself.

8. It is all up to You
You decide. Do You care about the well-being of
Yourself and others? Do You want to succeed? Do
You want to be honest and never lie to others
because you are lying to yourself too? Do You want
to pretend the whole world is a Competition and
You have to defeat people who choose the wrong
and help people who choose the right to be on top?
Ask Yourself, do You want to be Above the Line or
Below the Line?

9. Another Quote to Think ABout
Student Success Statement
“Every time I've done something that doesn't feel
right, it’s ended up not being right.”
- Mario Cuomo
I think this quote means that when YOU feel in your
heart that what you’re about to do is wrong and not the
right thing to do but still do it – the result will end up
with bad consequences. We must break down choices

10. The End
Remember the motto: CTR (Choose The Right) and
Stay Above the Line. Forget about Below the Line
and Choosing the Wrong.
