“I won’t cheat”

By: DALE MURPHY

Today’s student success statement is a little short but it is as meaningful as it is short.  The words I won't cheat re very meaningful because by saying them you are promising not to cheat. They may seem unimportant when using them throughout your day but Murphy gave us some examples where these words really do mean something. He gave us some examples of the olympics and the one where a runner used physical enhancement drugs to make her run faster and as a result she chose the right and confessed. Sadly for her, she was sent to jail due to he false answers to the FBI. He also talks about his foundation that is based on those three simple words, ”I  won’t cheat.” In his foundation he promotes the use of the truth and being honest. He talks about where cheating gets you. Another of Murphy’s examples on how cheating is bad is when he said that you might not get caught cheating in the beginning but in the long run you will get caught and have to own up to your wrong doings. I can see how I could use this in real life, or at least in my life. An example of how I could use this is when I’m taking a test. I will sometimes be tempted to talk if I’m sitting with my friends and that is considered cheating so I will no longer do it
