                   Tip 2

During the test

Read the direction.

It’s important that you follow the instructions exactly. For example, some questions may have more than one correct answer.

Answer easy questions first

Doing this can jog your memory about useful facts. You may also come across information that can help you with other questions.

Answer every question

Unless there is a penalty for wrong answers, try to answer every question, you may be able to get partial credit for those you begin nut don’t complete correctly.

Ask questions

If a question isn’t clear, talk to your teacher. If that’s not possible, explain your answer in the margin.

. Notice words that are italicized or bold.

. Read captions

. Read the very beginning and the end of the chapter

. Look at charts, graphs, pictures, maps and other visual materials.

                The three don’ts

Don’t whine

Don’t complain

Don’t make excuses

Reflection:

In life you should never whine, complain or make excuses. When you whine you just get into problems that you don’t want. When you complain it can lead to getting in fights. If you start making excuses for anything then other people will see that you make up to many stuff that they won’t end up believing you anymore.

                           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.
