Arete

Arete. Arete is the Greek way of saying to do everything to the best of your ability. In human geography, we have been learning about the Elbert Hubbard story A message to Garcia. In this story the solider Rowan out of West Point was given the task of taking a massage to Garcia, A cuban General. With this task he had to put in maximum effort to perform well for his country during the Spanish American War. Also with Arete you are the best person you can be. In life if you don't try then you will get what you put into things. For example, with school, if you don't try then then you will get a bad grade. In this situation, if you don't get the information to the leader then he could make a vital mistake. In the end you should always put as much effort in to things that matter.
