Student success statement

‘’start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.’’

I think that this means that do something that is right first because it is more important than doing something that is acceptable. Because if you do something that is right you can only do it once but if you do what is acceptable you can do it any other time. So it is more important to start off with what is important. For example if you want to do something is either now or never but if it is something acceptable you can do it any other time you have lots of time.

Student success statement

‘’to be great—concentrate.’’

I think that this means in order to be great you don’t have to do any bad things in your future or in your past. Because you need to have your mind focusing on good things and not bad things. but if you do something bad then your going to have trouble because you going to think about what you did wrong.

 Student success statement

‘’education is a marathon—not a sprint’’

I think that this means that education you have to be patient and not rush through things because if you rush through things then it will be harder for you because you have to take thins slow and not fast. You don’t have to rush things because you still have a lot to do when you’re done with your education you have to relax and not rush in things.

You synergize your talents knowledge and skills with those whom you work. All members of the team are edified together type of edification you can’t obtain by working alone.

Student success statement

‘’to see what is right and not to do it is want of courage.’’

I think that this means that if you see something that is right but yet you choose to choose the wrong then is not right. Because if you see something that is right then go do it as soon as possible because nothing negative will come up that’s only if you choose the wrong. So it is always important to choose the right.

                5 tips for success tip 5

Tip 5: keep a list of questions

When you feel confused about something your reading write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember teachers create assignments: they read the text and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner.

Asking questions to you to the teacher and to others is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerse you into the material you are reading and therefore expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.

The philosopher sir Francis bacon said knowledge is power. Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book and a pen.

''when i was teaching basketball i urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece. this rule is even more important in life than basketball. you have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. by applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and everyday over a period of time you will become a lot better. only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be. it begins trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day.''

you have to keep on practicing every single day to make the best out of yourself and if you wanna be the greatest you have to try hard every single day and not give up. but if you don't practice every day then you will not be the best.

5 tips for staying motivated

http://www.collegeboard.com/student/plan/boost-you-skills/8454.html

To succeed in high school and college you have to do your best at all times. But sometimes it’s hard to stay motivated even when you really care about the work you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.

1. Focus on high impact activities

The key to success in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall picture of your work load before you start to tackle any of it. Then make a plan although it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first, those that the more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones that you’ll learn the most from them.

To determine what your priorities are rank your assignments in the order of their importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on your course work and grades. For example even though all homework assignments are important, studying

For a midterm exam takes priority over writing a paragraph for English class. As you complete each task think of it as another step on your way to college success.

2. Create new challenges

Changing your approach can help you stay interested in what you’re doing. If you’ve been given an assignment similar to in you’ve done in the past think about it in a different way. If you wrote an essay for a creative writing assignment last year try a poem this time. For book reports pick a history book instead of another biography.

If you have a study period or a long bus ride, use the time to review notes prepare for an upcoming class or start your homework. Flash cards are great; earmomg tool. They are easy to make easy to handle and are a marvelous tool to help you learn and remember anything. Punch a hole in the upper left corner of each index card and connect the stack of your flash cards with a ring. Then the cars are bound and not flopping around. Flash cards bound like this act like small books with pages. You can even have separate ringed stacks for each subject. Whatever you want to remember put it on a card.
