“I hated poverty.Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that.It depends upon how hard I want to work,and I decided that I would change it”

This student success statement means that the place you started on is really a choice. You can change where you started by working hard. If you really care about changing poverty, then you would work against it. In life we want to succeed in life by trying to aim high. If you think you think it won’t change then you're wrong. You can change it so that’s why it’s like an option. This student success statement doesn’t fit with poverty, but also with life.Anything that you want to be changed can be changed by yourself. If you have enough determination to do so, it would change. An example would be failing a class. If you began failing in education, you may not make it in the future. Then when you realize that you have to do something about that, you can pass  the class.
