“I wasn’t trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right.”

-Dean Smith

Your goal in life shouldn’t be to leave a legacy, something for others to look up to and follow. Your goal should be to always do what is right. Doing what is right is far more important than leaving a legacy according to Mr.Smith. Now in my opinion I think you should leave a legacy behind because that legacy will help people out in the future. I do believe that you should do what is right, but you can leave a legacy of all the good you have done. For example, let’s say you had to make a choice because you might be leaving soon, what will you prefer: leave behind a life where you were known for doing great or were known to do what is right? Honestly, I will want people to remember me for always doing what is right even when times were hard. If you are going to leave a legacy make sure that it is a legacy that you are proud of. One were you did what was right and if you don’t have one like that yet then maybe you should change some things. Your mind should never be set on being great, but on doing the right things all the time. Dean never try to live a life of greatness, but of doing what is right.
