No cause you shouldn't have to cheat to win, winning fair and square is the best way to go. Cheating your way to victory when others have worked so hard to win is unfair, and I feel that cheaters should never win.
I believe that you don't have to lie or cheat to get ahead in life. You can be successful in many ways just by being yourself and being true to the people around you. Some people cheat because I believe it's a lack of self confidence so they lie to get by in life from time to time because they may be scared to tell the truth. Some people just like to lie to get what they want in life sometimes because they believe they'll never be caught. But there are also some people who are always 100% with most of the things they do so no I don't believe you don't have to lie to be ahead of anyone.
yes i think its necessary.I think its necessary because i bet everyone else around them is trying to get to the same place which is the top. People will do anything to get what they want and cheating is part of it
No, cheating is not the only possible way to become successful.In actuality cheating will get you no where.Who wants to go through life knowing that they are only where they are because they cheated there way to the TOP!Well I know I wouldnt!
Sometimes we cheat to get ahead in life because sometimes doing it the right way isn't always the best answer in some cases. Most people cheat in order to get the things they want like an 'A' on a test/exam. Sometimes when people cheat they get ahead but eventually the truth turns around and bites where it'll hirt the most. Most people dont realize that cheating will never get you anywhere because after you cheat on that test you still dont know what that section was about or how to do any of it and what your job requirement is.
No because cheating gets you nowhere in life and you should try to do everything honest in life. And that will help you out of not trying to cheat to succeed in life.
I have always been a firm believer that you do not have to cheat to get ahead but I do believe that it may be necessary in some situations to get ahead. For example, if you are someone who has been living in poor conditions all of their life and have always done the right thing to get ahead but just can't seem to make it, it would seem very necessary. On the other hand, if you are someone who is already ahead and you feel that cheating will make you even more successful, than no it is not necessary.
I believe that sometimes in life you must become apart of the cheating culture in order to get ahead in life. But when you cheat don't let it be to extreme where it can harm others. For example Chris Gardner cheated and now he is a multi millionare and he didn't hurt anyone so that would be the only way I would be apart of the cheating culture.
It's not necessary to cheat because you will never get the joy of winning. Besides to people who try really hard and dont cheat it wouldn't be fair.
I FEEL THAT IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO BE APART OF THE CHEATING CULTURE. CAHETING ON YOUR CULTURE IS NOT THE WAY TO SUCESSS TO LIFE.YOU CAN STAND UP FOR YOUR CULTURE AND BELIEFS.

I agree with Sarah. Cheaters will never win no matter how far they get but they fall hard somewhere down in life. Then when they look back on what they did they'll feel bad and then wanna change their life around. But sometimes people should've realized their mistakes before falling and then wanting to change. They should realize it on their own. Cheaters never win, just like Sarah said.
I am commenting on Josh's blog i think that his blog is out of the box. Cheating is unethical. Lets just think about it would you like to be cheated out of anything, NO you wouldn't. And there are other ways of getting to the top besides cheating.
i wouldn't necessarily say you would have to cheat you just have to think outside the box a little. so i understand what sarah is saying i just don't agree completely with her. You can go through life without cheating.
I believe if you work hrd enough your effoet will be shown, but when you think about it your work that you are wprking hard at, someone else is cheating there way towards the same goal. I believe you have to have the right mind-set. At the end of the day it all comes down to your morals.
I for one totally agree with what Ashley said... I would personally be ashamed and disgusted with myself if I went through life cheating my way through advances.In all truth if you only gains the things that you want through cheating, then you in all actuality are nothing but a loser with no kind of skills. Cheating gets you know where because eventually all that bad karma can wil come back around to hit you and it'll hit hard!
I feel that you dont have to become a cheater to suceed in life.As long as you work hard and give it your all the you can be sucessfull. Life isn't fair and how you adapt is just a test your morals and ethics.
I agree with Josh becasue everyone in the society is trying to get to the "top".As a result people do what ever they have to to suceed, and yes life isn't fair.
I would like to comment on what was by Destiny, when you "play fair do you always come out on top I don't know about you but in the corporate world that thinking that you have to always play fair won't always work. People will walk all over you if you have that mentality. I believe that just like Malcolm X said "We declare our right on this earth...to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary."
When you think about certain opportunities come past you think about it how can I take advantage of this cituation.
I agree with Shanaye's response. People do do a lot of things to get ahead in life and cheating is one of them. There is a lot of cheating in everyday life from one extreme to the next whether its cheating in school or in politics. In the end it will be something that they greatly regret.
I believe that in a sense you have to be a member of the cheating culture to succeed because society has made it this way. As I stated before in the previous blog, a lot of things have changed and it's became difficult to do the right thing to succeed. Although it isn't wise it's the only option that is left until things change for the better.
