I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a firstclass version(版本) of yourself, instead of a secondclass version of somebody else.”Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t to wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that: In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well.I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off. At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping theml They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder dwon the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me. It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work.
