student cuccess statement

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistance. talent will; nothing is more commom than unsuccessful man with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. persistance and determination alone are omnipotent. the slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

         calvin coolidge, 30th president of the united states

reflection:

if you want talent you need to be successful. if you are motivated to do something it will be easier to solve your problems. you don't need to be a genius in order to succeed or to solve your problems you just need to make smart choices.

'Tis the set of the sail

 ‘Tis the set of the sail

                Ella wheeler Wilcox 1916

But to every mind there openth,                                        a way, and a way, and away,

A high soul climbs the highway,

And the low soul gropes the low,

And in between on the misty flats,

The rest drift to and fro

But to every man there openeth,

A high way and a low,

And every mind decideth,

The way his soul should go.

One ship sails east

 And another west,

By the self-same winds that blow,

‘Tis the set of the sails

And not the gales,

That tells the way we go.

Like the winds of the sea

Are the waves of time,

As we journey along through life,

‘Tis the set of the soul,

That determines the goal,

And not the calm or the strife.

                                Goals

“In life as in football, you won’t go far, unless you know there the goalposts are.”

                   Arnold Glasgow

Reflection:

You need to know what your goals are in order to accomplish them. But if you don’t have goals is okay it’s not bad as long as you later on make some goals. You make sure they are good ones that won’t harm your life.

                           Habit 7

                            Part 2

Habit 7: sharpen the saw

3. Heart: always do what is right so your heart, your conscience, will feel peaceful, when you do the wrong, your conscience will prick you and create regretful sensations within your heart. When you do what you honestly feel, you won’t have any regrets. Your heart is your internal compass-it gives you direction and discernment. Just like a magnetic compass gives directions, even true north, your personal compass, your heart, will point you in the true north, the exact directions and paths you need to trod.

4. Soul: study scriptures and other sacred literature daily. In other words, feed your spirit because your spirit needs spiritual food just like your physical body needs temporal food to survive. Pondering, meditating, and reflecting are excellent soul-sharpening activities. Try writing your thoughts, feelings, aspiration, concerns, and decisions in a diary or journal writing helps you focus and make good decisions.

Get into the habit of daily improving your body (physical fitness).Your mind, your heart, and your soul.

7 habits of highly successful teens

                       Habit 2

Habit 2: begin with the end in mind

if teens aren’t clear where they want to end up in life, about their values, goals, and what they stand for, they will wander, waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the opinions of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road map and direct and guide his decision-making process.

“Keep your eyes on the prize,” determine your desired prize and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your prize. Then set another prize, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Begin with the achievement of your prize in mind. Visualize and then realize. Start by having a target in mind: know where you are going.

One prize or goal your definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school that you will receive your diploma honesty and with integrity-that you earned it with perfect honesty.

After some serious soul-searching Kennedy decided she was made for it purpose: to be successful and to fulfill who she was destined to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and a mindset that I would not fail with God leading me.”

She says her first semester back was difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the Student Success Program,” Kennedy said.” To my benefit, Ms. Gravely accepted me back. Because of my struggles and hard times, I seek a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-value.”
