“Never, there is no justification ever for choosing any part of what you know to be evil.”
Ayn Rand

This is an amazing statement by esteemed Russian novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter Ayn Rand. There is never any justification for committing an improper (Evil) action. We must never attempt to justify an improper action because no matter how much effort is exerted into justifying the action it will never be deemed correct. Society is an important factor in the decision of whether an action is correct or if it is not. Would you expect the justification of an action that caused the deaths of many? No the action will never be justified since it impacted society negatively. Differentiation of right or wrong is different with every person, but the perception of an event that impacted the world will affect many profoundly.

Tip 5: Keep a List of Questions

When you feel confused about something you’re reading, write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they’ve read the texts and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions develop and asked by the learner.

Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to others, is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.

The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book … and a pen.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

“Success is dependent on effort.”
- Sophocles, Greek dramatist

This is an amazing quote by the exquisite philosophers the Sophocles. Effort is displayed in any situation and determines the outcome. Many people display effort and succeed while many others do not and end up failing therefore you must display effort no matter what the situation might be because if you do not display any effort at all you will not even accomplish anything. Sometimes it’s hard to display effort in a certain situation that is unpleasant, but if you do then the outcome will generally be positive and you will succeed in either accomplishing something or assisting someone who wants to accomplish something. Success is only marked by effort and failure is marked by the lack of effort/ not taking action for the situation.
