Personally, I can understand what this quote means from personal experiences. In school, I try hard to get maintain good grades, and I have been called things like smarty pants and whatnot. It doesn’t really get to me because most of the time people are just kidding around it about it. They usually seem to be jealous because they don’t have those grades. Most of the people I know really do try to work hard in what they do. I don’t know many people that just go through school just to get through it. I don’t even understand how people just have that attitude that they do not care. I understand some people would call me strange from that, but I don’t care. How can you not care about doing well in life, I mean your grades determine the rest of your life pretty much. If you have good grades, you have more opportunities to go places for college and then eventuality with a career. You can choose what you want to do if you have the grades and the reputation of a good student. I would much rather work hard in school and choose the rest of my life, than slack in my classes, and be forced to work somewhere I do not want to for the amount of money I do not want either. I would appreciate very much if I could land a career that gets paid well, I can’t imagine who else wouldn’t. But money isn’t the first thing I want. I would like to choose a career I am interested in. I haven’t put great thought into that yet, but when I do, I will have many options because my grades are good. I think that everyone likes a positive comment. I try to give out comments that are positive to others, even if it is on a negative thing. I feel like life is short, and you shouldn’t waste time getting upset over things. You should enjoy your time and plan for more time. Everyone around you has made impacts on at least one persons life, so if you think about knowing lets say 50 people, then all of those 50 people have changed someone else’s life, now that’s 100. The numbers double and double and you can be someone who inspires another person to send on the good message. You should set examples for others to be a good person and get good grades. You should inspire others never put them down. Putting someone else down could have the reverse effect, and many people would then end up upset. Let’s try to keep everything positive. You can change someone’s day by being positive. No put downs.
