Student success statement

“take care of yourself and everything else will fall into place”

-        Coach David Diamont

 

Reflection-  this quote reflects on those people who do all the things that are right, people who follow and obey rules from their parents, people that will succeed in life for doing what was right and for never getting into harmful things for example use of drugs, alcohol, and things that are not worth it, and you’ll see that in time things will fall apart when they are in your way.

Acquiring The Habits of Highly Successful Students Part 12

What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestone in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost, of course, but appreciates what you have done too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen your-belief and reinforce your determination to succeed. Some of the key characters you will find in those who are successful are perseverance, prepared to research, plan and work hard, practice a lot even when things do not seem to be going well, and an ability to recover and learn from setbacks. At the outset of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in, a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achieving targets can all play an important role.

. They concentrate on the process of solving the task and understanding the involved ideas. Of course we are interested in getting good results, but the process is more important. A result is a very brief moment of life, while learning to develop processes is a skill that will last for the whole life.

. They interpret and analyze errors as a way of increasing their learning. i.e., they try to learn from their mistakes. This way, they see errors and failures as opportunities.

. They look for the required information in several channels (books, journals, newspapers, experts, internet, and so on.)

. They consult experts and teachers frequently. This action provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

                Acquiring the habits of

              Highly successful students

                             Part 7   

 Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have to go out and search for those keys, or do we have those potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspects –life within and life without; internal life and external life –and we can see that these aspects are of equal importance. Even if we have renounced the world, gone far away from civilization, and live in the wilderness doing nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see that we eat, do our ablution, and perform our practices on time. So life in the external world is an important as life in the internal world.

If you prefer to play videogames, then remember that making any game requires to prepare a detailed script including history, characters, goals and relations. Therefore, you could start writing down the script for your “dream” game. On the other side, you could imagine how the novel you are reading could be transformed into a videogame (start out by thinking which gaming genre fits the novel better: role playing, adventure, action, and so on.) the basic idea is to find match points and links between our affections and our chores. And such links there always exist. Remember, to link ideas and concepts is the most important habits for successful students.

Successful students also exhibit other particular traits we should internalize:

Even one who has renounced the world has to understand the world relationship properly, because life itself is actually relationship.

We humans are innate learners, as learning is the cornerstone for survival. We must remember, abstract and apply knowledge in diverse ( and often harsh) environments in order to develop into and behave as truly intelligent. In short, the adaptability and resilience we exhibit stems from learning know, a key issue to learning is the driving force behind it, i.e., the motivation or stimuli to learn. We can learn because of fear (we want to learn how to protect ourselves from danger. )  we can learn just out of curiosity (our natural inquisitive behavior) we can learn because we want to reach some social status ( approval of others is a potent stimuli to learn.) we can learn simply because we love to learn new things everyday. There are plenty of reasons to learn and yours may easily be a mixture of these. Health and money are important things in life, but learning is the base for using them wisely.

         Successful student

                 Part 2

Successful students take charge of their lives and balance their time between fun and work. They know that there is a time for all-nighter, and its not during final weeks.

Successful students take care of themselves do you live on junk food and lay on the coach watching TV every night? Students which poor physical habits probably don’t feel very energetic in the mornings, and they probably don’t feel good seating In class either

Good food and a little exercise will clear your head! Students who eat junk in moderation (you really don’t have to cut it out completely)and work out in some way are more likely to participate in sports. That means they have more balance in their lives, feel better in the mornings, and are more alert in class.

You just have to change a few habits to feel better. Eat healthy foods, start walking more, take a yoga class, enroll in martial arts classes, or challenge yourself to do sit-ups all night. You’ll notice a change right away.

  Secrets of successful students

                  Part 1

It’s a matter of Taking Charge of YOUR TIME AND DESTINY!

Have you ever wondered what successful students do to set themselves apart from the rest .The key to simple: successful students take charge of their own success.

There is no magic trick, power drink, or special class that makes a student excel in the classroom. Students stand out because they take charge of their time and their tasks, without relying on anybody else to tell them what to do.

Successful students control their calendars. Successful students don’t rely on parents or teachers to tell them when assignments are due or when test dates are approaching. They mark special dates in their calendars and keep track of commitments and schedules.

 

Successful students don’t put others in charge of their lives.

Successful students Prioritize

Do you like to stay out late with friends. Do you like to go to parties. Do you like to watch TV or play video games all night. Well, who doesn’t .

   The “C” student

                  Part 3

6. EFFORT: “C” students are capable of sufficient effort, but either fail to realistically evaluate the effort needed to accomplish a task successfully, or lack the desire to meet the challenge. They put forth very little effort. They don’t realize that they will be rewarded according the amount of effort they put into a project little effort=bad results.

7. COMMUNICATIONS “C” students communicate in ways that often limit comprehension or risk misinterpretation. Ideas are not well formulated before they are expressed. Poor listening/reading habits inhibit matching inquiry and reponse.

8. RESPONSE “C” students obtain mediocre or inconsistent results on tests. They have some concept of what is going o but clearly have mastered the material.

                              Average student

                                       Part 2

CURIOSITY: “C” students seldom explore topics deeper than their face value. They lack vision and bypass interconnectedness of concepts Immediate relevancy is often their singular test for involvement.

3. RETENTION: “C” students retain less information and some shorter periods. Less efforts seems to go toward organizing and associating learned  information with previously acquired knowledge. They display short-term retention by relying on cramming sessions that focus on details, not concepts.

4.ATTITUDE; ”C” students are not visibly committed to class. They participate without enthusiasm. Their body language often expresses boredom.
5. TALENT; “C” students vary enormously in a talent. Some have exceptional ability but show undeniable signs of poor self-management or bad attitudes. Others are diligent but simply average in academic ability.

1. ATTENDANCE: “C” students are often late and miss class frequently. They put others priorities ahead or academic work. In some cases, their health or constant fatigue renders them physically unable to keep up with the demands of high –level performance. They think it is cool to be tarty because it makes them think they are big shots. Skipping class in another downfall for the “C” and failing students

2. PERPARATION: “C” students may prepare the assignments consistently, but often in a perfunctory manner. Their work may sloppy or careless. At times, it is incomplete or late. They postpone doing home assignments in order to texts friends, visits friends on Facebook, or send tweets to some of their followers. They take shortcuts to complete academic work. They are short-sighted because they can’t see the long range destruction of taking shortcuts. It never payoffs.

Successful students can be distinguished from the average student by their attitudes and behaviors. Below are some profiles that typically distinguish between an “a” student and a “c” student. Where do you fit in this scheme.

 

1. ATTENDANCE: ”a” students have virtually perfect attendance. Their commitment to the

4. RETENTION; “A” students have retentive minds and practice making retentive connections. They are able to connect past learning with present. They bring a background of acknowledge with them to their classes. They focus on learning concepts rather than memorizing details.
