“Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don’t do it.”- George Mitchell
This quote means that no matter how much you think something as simple as cheating can not affect, you it always will. If you never cheat then you are choosing the right and are going to be led to success. If you cheat then you are choosing the wrong and will not be led down the right path. When you cheat you will eventually have to face the consequences and will always be feeling guilty. It is very important to stay away from cheating at all cost in order to stay on the right path.
There are many examples of how cheating can affect you in the long run. For example, if you cheat on a test you think it won’t affect you just because you didn’t get caught but that is not true. You can not always rely on cheating, what are you suppose to do when you are unable to cheat and are left on your own to figure it out? Well that is when your true colors will show and you will be unable to stop it. Another example would be you cheating in a competition and you getting caught. No one will look at you the same afterwards because they will always think back to when you made a simple mistake. This is basically what I understood from this quote by George Mitchell.
