"I trust that my hard work will pay off." -Tyler Haws

I believe that this quote is saying you have to work hard to get somewhere in life. You have to be a CTR person and try your hardest in life in order to get where you want to be . For example take Tyler Haws, which was one of the best, and maybe even the best, basketball players ever to play for Brigham Young University. He was voted Mr. BAsketball twice, making him the second person in history to ever have that achievment. He was not always like this though. ACcording to him he was not born an amazing basketball player. Nope, that was learned and earned with his hard work. His parents said they saw this change in him in around 3rd grade when he was kicked off a very good team. Tyler was devasted but then his dad, also a very great basketball player for Brigham Young University, told him that in order to get far you had to work hard (thats not his exact quote). And so ever summer day and weekends and sometimes on school days in the morning, they went ot the church and practiced, practiced, practiced. They would work on his free throws and technique until he had made 100 throws that day. He does that easily now, but who wouldve known when you work hard you go far. Choose the right!!!
