A choice

" I hated poverty.Poverty is more 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." is what Dr. Ben Carson once said. I believe that Ben said this to us and stated it to let us know that if you really want to get things in life you would have to work for it as hard as you can. For example lets say you are in poverty it is your choice if you want to get out of that or still stay in that situation. You know that you will need to work hard and smart to get out of poverty but instead you chose to just slack off and not care about that. In the long run you would then have to work much more hard and also will then be struggling to even put some food on the table. Now lets say that your back in the same situation with you being in poverty. Once again it is up to you to work hard and get yourself out of that and you realize that. so the next day your hard at work trying to earn more to live better and you then even try getting a second or third job as well to earn more cash. The chance are that you will then get out of poverty and then become able to live better because you tried working harder to get out of something that was effecting you and now your at ease. This is what I think about this statement and it is to always work your best and overcome any obstacle that might be in your way.
