  2. Always try to accomplish the highest obstacle that there is. Never stop always try your hardest to achieve the most that you can. The more risks that you take the more accomplishments you will have. It is always good to set high goals for yourself, you will always have something to accomplish.

  4. In order to live a great successful life you have to have courage. Having courage can lead you more to success, but can also make your life shrink. The way your life shrinks is by having courage on negativity, but since we want are life to be the best and expand, have the courage to Choose the right. You will always need the courage to go beyond success.

  5. Choose the right path to succeed in life. Have courage and strength to get by it. Both the quote and pictures have a good meaning to it, if you go by what it says you will go far in life. It will be a challenge to get to the top of the pyramid but if you work hard, smart, together and having courage you will eventually get to it. Do whatever it takes to get to the top. You'll have a better future and in the end you'll be happy. Being an academic champion is the right way.

  8. Courage is one of the many things you need in life to succeed. You need to have courage to say to yourself that you will go to school everyday and do all your classwork and homework on time and actually do it. A person who wants to be successful needs courage to study for a career. After your done with your studies, you need courage to go out into the world and look for a job where you can apply everything you studied. If you have courage you will succeed.

  9. Sometimes people, (especially teenagers) are intimidated by their peers and don't have the courage to say what they feel, or do what they like to do because it might be "lame' or "uncool." These quotes are saying to always have courage and keep working up that pyramid we all call, life - it's worth it in the end.

  10. i agree with these three pictures. students and everyone should have the courage to stand up for themselves. they should not care what others have to say. they should follow their dreams because at the end the only one who will stay down will be you if you don't follow your dreams and achieve whatever career path you want to take.

  11. i really believe in this quote to "have the courage to be an academic champion" because if your to shy or scared you will never be going the extra mile to be a academic champion. with courage you can continue with out nothing stopping you from acheiving success. Not being scared of taking risk could lead you to a better future and become successful. it is ones decision to go as far as you can but only if your not afraid of taking that extra step. Reach to the highest peak with CTR.

  12. I like this quote because to be a successful person/leader you have to have courage and braveness. Life sets paths that sometimes are going to be hard to accomplish but with courage and wiliness you will be able to succeed. To be an Academic Champion or leader to others you have to be the strong one in the pack, so the others will strive to be like you. A successful person strives to the top always and achieves all obstacles put upon he/she.
    CTR!

  13. Having the courage to strive for the highest is a must. If you want something so bad you have to give it your all, at all times. Have the courage to achieve what you want too. Working hard, working smart and working together will take you to the top. CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

  15. Having the courage to do things you normally wouldn't, really does expand or shrink your life in different ways. For example, if you do have the courage to go out of your "comfort zone" then there is a lot of things you can do in life. If you do not have the courage to go out of your "comfort zone" then the things you can do in life shrink and are very limited. Going out and doing things you wouldn't normally do with courage means to do something you wouldn't do on a regular day, and not worry what others say or think, even if they laugh.

  19. I take this as if it ment to be who you are, and also don`t be scared to do good no matter what others say. Don`t be scared to be better than others and don`t hold yourself back because of what others might say. Be positive about your choices and do what`s right regardless of others. Do your best at what you can and don`t let anyone get you or hold you down have the courage to be successful no matter what others think or may think or say.

  21. Having courage to do the right is to not care about what others may think. To not be embarrass to speak what you think. Having the courage will give a you big success. We need to have courage to climb up and not let anything stop us. What the quote is trying to say is if we got courage we got more opportunities in life.

  22. True. You decide how you want your life to be. Whether it is good or bad. The person who chooses the good/right, life will expand. The ones who choose the wrong, life will probably shrink. A person who has courage will always strive for the highest.

  23. This quote is saying that you courage is everything. Without courage you will never go anywhere in life. We have to believe in ourselves that we can do it. If you don't have courage, you cannot be an academic champion. Academic champions always take risks in order to succeed. We have to work hard and have a great amount of courage to succeed because the world is a tough place, and we need courage to confront the challenges that will come to us. Challenges will always get in our way when we try to succeed but it is up to us to have our mind set on our goal and never give up!

  24. WOW!!! This quote is like music to my ears. It's telling me to aim for the best, to be the best and go that extra mile to be the best that you can be. An Academic Champion always go the extra mile. Even though you might not get paid for it right away, it pays off sooner or later. So, get up and go that extra mile to be a successful student. Choose The Right

The quote "Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage." is very true because the more courage you have the better the things that will come to you. Always go for the top prize never think you cannot do it. Anything is possible if you always Choose The Right!

  26. Always aim at the top of your goals. Never be afraid to speak out loud or say what's on your mind. Have the courage to do right! And with that you will be a successful Academic Champion. Start from the bottom and work your way up to the top.:)

  29. Courage is so important in life. You need courage to rage yourself in the highest point. With courage you will achieve a lot of things. Courage is the power that you have when you try for something that you know that you can't win. Courage is something you learn and will try hard for that hard point you can't achieve. CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

    Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.

  32. In life you have to have courage to get where you want to be. Sometimes you have to take risks in order for you to have more opportunities. If you don't have courage, you will never know what you could of done in your life and you will miss out on a lot of possibilities. Courage doesn't come easy, but its important to strive for the best. As long as you believe in yourself, your life will have endless possibilities.

  33. Always have the courage to do the right to know what to do when the time is right and knowing when to do it and to always follow what you feel is right and always have courage to follow one of your dreams because all dreams take courage to develop and with out courage there wouldnt be all this successful person we always hear on tv so everyone should have a little bit of courage to do what they want to do in life and with a little bit of courage someone can go really far and become a very successful academic champion.

  34. These comments are cool, I like them because they show that you have to have lots of courage to do stuff. I have a friend who is always shy to do thing and I feel that if you don't have courage you can't have fun in life. You need courage every where you go. Such as asking a stranger for directions. Raising your had to answer a question in class. Dancing with someone. To stand up for yourself. Courage is IMPORTANT!!

  35. Choosing the right doesn't only involve intelligence, and hard work, it also involves courage. Courage is what it takes to reach success. It takes courage to reach your goals. It also takes courage to choose the right and not chose the easy way out. It may seem hard to reach your goals,but be courageous and face every single obstacle between you and your goal, it will be worth it in the long-run.

  38. this quote means like if you have the courage to strive for something, the go for it. courage is a lot to handle in this big world, but if you want it really bad such as a good grade in school, work hard at it to achieve it. dont worry about what people say about you when you want to become an academic champion, just become one. your life would crash if you dont have courage. CHOOSE THE RIGHT.!

  40. When i think of the message that this post is trying to tell me I think of believing on yourself. It tells me that if you have courage and believe in yourself than thats all you need to succeed in life. That and you have to choose the right, not to mention be determined in what you do. You must have confidence in yourself and not let anyone tell you otherwise.
