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

Coach David Diamont

Reflection:  This statement is very true. If you take care of yourself, everything will fall into place.  For example if you take care of your health then you don’t have to worry about get sick or catching diseases.  By avoiding drugs and alcohol you also take care of yourself and positive things will come your way. You don’t have to worry about getting caught by the police or getting addicted to a certain substance. If you take care of yourself everything coming your way will be positive and your life will be stress free. Everything will fall into place and you will have a life without stress of worrying. Choose the right and take care of yourself so everything can fall into place!

If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, then do not despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use mediation and visualization techniques to initiate your vision, and they can certainly to learn both for that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goals. Simply visualize your desired goals, that of being a start student, a champion of doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding and you’re your dreams and vision will materialize as you pursue these objectives.

What is the important to you is that you, as you start to reach out milestones in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost, of course, if others appreciate what you have done too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen your self-belief, reinforce your determination to succeed. Some of the key characteristics 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 achievable targets can all play an important role.

Whether studying or in general life, planning is an imperative skill. Here, we must strictly set the hours for studying, and should promote regularity in doing so. Don’t put off your studies to the last moment (just before the test), because in that moment you will be feeling stress and pressure, and both factors will prove disturbing for your leaning; that’s the high price of procrastination. During the exam, it’s important to forget about panic and stress. And if you are planning for your thesis, you may find this plot useful. Other planning tip I frequently give is that when you are assigned a homework, try to solve it as quickly as possible, several day before the required date, but don’t try to complete it perfectly and don’t try to complete it perfectly and don’t try to summit it immediately. I always recommend doing homework early, but deliver it the last possible day.

Be wise never use drugs or alcohol

Be wise never use drugs or alcohol

Never use drugs or alcohol. These substances destroy your life. They cause many problems mentally and physically. Drugs and alcohol create problems with your family friends and with the law. For example many drugs are illegal and you can be sent to prison by consuming them. Even though alcohol is legal you can still go to prison if you drink and drive. Many lives are lost because of these substances. People who drink and drive can kill other innocent lives that are on the road. The person who drinks also gets affected because there are a lot of diseases that are due to alcohol consume. The liver gets affected by alcohol and it can get to the point where you’re liver can stop functioning because of drinking too much. The kidneys also get affected because they have to filter all the chemicals in alcohol. Many people suffer with alcohol because it causes problems at home and with others. For example many family fights and friendships are lost because of alcohol. Alcohol makes many people act lunatic and insane, they are not aware of their action or what they are doing. On the other hand drugs are also very bad for you. Drugs can cause many diseases. Mainly drugs trigger the brain and can cause you to go completely crazy. You can get addicted to drugs and lose your life. Many people who are homeless were on drugs and lost it all. Getting addicted to drugs can even lead you to kill others just so you can your drug. It makes people go insane and kills your brain cells.  Drugs and alcohol are very bad. These substances can lead you to prison, going crazy, and losing it all. You should be wise and never use alcohol or drugs ever in your life.

·       They don’t apply the simple criteria of successful to their learning. Remember, they are focused into the learning process.

·       They know how to handle groups

·       Finally they work with passion.

Other chief habit is that of asking questions. We have to establish hypothesis and set concrete, realistic goals. After reading any test we have to ask several different questions related to the content, in order to verify if we have completely understood the text. It’s also important to try to relate such text and other areas of our knowledge. Again linking ideas concepts is a habit of highly successful students. So , link

·       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, newspaper, experts, Internet, and so on)

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

·      Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have to go out and search for these key, or do we have these potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspects – life within in 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 ablutions, and preform our practices on time. So life in the external world is as 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 are the most important habit for successful students.

Successful students also exhibit other particular traits we should internalize.

Reflection: I think this statement is has a brilliant meaning. Noemi is saying that if you choose the right you become a better person. If you follow the CTR morals you become a champion and improve yourself as a person. Trigueros has a brilliant meaning of a champion because a champion always chooses the right and succeed. If you choose the right you can become a champion and a better person. Always choose the right and bring out the champion inside of you eagerly waiting for you to make it be recognized.

The body is related to the breath and the breath is related to the mind. The body, the breath, senses. And mind all function together as a unit. So life virtually means relationship, and thus the art of living a being requires an understanding of ones relationship to the external world and the relationships within oneself.

All human beings have inner potentials, but many people are not aware of those potentials and do not know how to use them to have a successful life. Those who are no happy internally can never be happy externally; those who are happy within themselves can never make others happy. Those who do not love themselves can never love others.

“The harmful effects of smoking”

“The harmful effects of smoking”

Smoking is a very bad habit people around the world have. It kills may people but yet it’s still legal. Smoking affects your lungs and it’s very dangerous. It can cause lung cancer, or mouth cancer and diseases. It is a very filthy thing to and so many of us do it. It is one of the number 1 causes of death in the United States and many lives are lost because of smoking. It not only affects you but also the ones that surround you. People that are around you are affected by smoking because it’s transmitted by second hand smoking. Many of the people affected are kids. If the parent or any other adult smokes around them, they inhale the filthy substance and can give them breathing problems. Smoking affects all of us and the environment as well. Smoking doesn’t satisfy no one, it only kills you slowly by slowly by doing it. Smoking causes:

Ø Lung cancer

Ø Oral cancer

Ø Rotten teeth and gums

Ø Breathing problems

Ø Builds up tar in lungs

Ø Addiction

Ø Affects others around you

Don’t smoke and you won’t only save your life, but the lives of others too!

If we are to succeed in life, we must home our learning skills.

1.        The first step in this direction is to sincerely point out the driving force of motivation. Let’s relax, and start listing the reasons that impel you to study some topic. As crude as they may be. It’s possible that you list may be empty.  Don’t worry, it only means that you have not identified any reason to study the chosen and very specific point (It’s for sure that you are an excellent learner in other areas of life.) If you don’t have any motivation to study, then give me the list of reasons why you don’t want to study, and please note that this list is empty. Whether you found a huge list of driving forces or a list of reasons for not studying, the end product of this step comprises at least one item( a positive or negative driving force)

We humans are innate learns, 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 beings. In short, the adaptability and resilience we exhibit stems from learning. Now, a key issue to learning is the driving force behind it, i.e., the motivation or stimuli to learn. We can learn because of the fear of (we want to learn how to protect ourselves from danger). We can learn just out of curiosity (our national inquisitive behavior.)We can learn simply 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 every day. There are a plenty of reasons to learn and you may be easily be a mixture of these. Heath and money are more important things in life, but learning is the base for using them wisely.

“Regard you good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of.”

-Socrates

Reflection

 

I think this statement has a lot of meaning. Socrates is saying that you should consider your name very valuable like a jewel. You should keep it clean and nice. Your name makes up for a lot of who you are so try to keep your reputation straight. Try to keep your reputation clean and straight because your name is what you’re known for. If you choose the wrong your name will be ruined and people will think badly as soon as they hear it. For example Hitler, everyone knows who he is and when they hear his name they right away think of all the bad and cruel things he did. You should choose the right and be a good person. Your name would be clean and people would think well about you if you are a good person or do good things. In other words always choose the right because even something simple as your name can be ruined by the actions you make. Always choose the right and keep your name clean like a jewel.

10. Learn something new or difficult in you strongest intelligence, sense or in your dominant hemisphere. Reinforce it with as many different ways as possible.

11. Find a study partner or two in each class and routinely take turns teaching each other material.

12. Prepare for each class as if there will be a pop quiz.

The single most important way to prepare for a test is to study many days in advance. Study each day to prepare for a test that is coming up in a few days or weeks. When you are prepared you will do great on the test and you will be confident.

“The importance of working hard in School”

It is very important to work hard in school. Working hard in school affects your grades and learning skills. The more you work hard the more you accomplish in life and in school. It makes you a better person academically and makes you more intellectual. If you work hard in school you accomplish many goals like getting straight A’s. You can also earn a diploma, trophy, or anything rewarding. You get recognized for your hard work and can even become a role model for others. Working hard in school always pays off because you satisfied yourself and family. You have to work hard for what you want and school is what prepares you for your academic future. You have to stay focused, do your work, listen to directions, and ALWAYS choose the right. Always work hard and you will get what you want. Working hard in school prepares you for the future and makes you a more fulfilled student.

Are you really doing everything you can to prepare for tests? Re-reading the chapter and looking over enough. Below is a list of tips for test preparation from successful students.

!. Keep up to date with assignments

2. Take notes in every class every day. This includes asking questions when you don’t understand.

3. Process information as you comes to it. Learning information is much different than “becoming acquainted” with it.

4. Process information systematically. Label in the margin works well for most people.

5. Adapt it to suite your learning styles. Capitalize on the discipline label in the margin requires and makes it habit to process information to texts and lectures, not just go over it.

6. Have a study base that is free of distractions

7. Have a specific time for initial study of each subject. You may need more than this time, but having set time will save you time.

“Obedience leads to true freedom”

James E. Faust

Reflection: This statement from James E. Faust is very true. I agree with this statement because if you follow the rules and obey you will live in freedom. For example, criminals disobey and commit crimes so they are imprisoned and have no type of freedom. Freedom is beautiful and you must obey to have a nice clean and free life. If you disobey you choose the wrong and you give up your freedom. You have to follow rules, obey orders and follow the correct ways in order to have eternal freedom. Disobeying can lead you to prison and a filthy life, but if you obey and choose the right your life will maintain free. Always choose the right and you will always be free!

Successful students take charge of their lives and balance their time between fun and work. They know that there is a time for all-nighters, and it’s not during week.

Successful students take care of themselves

Do you live on junk food and lay down on the couch watching TV every night? Students with poor physical habits probably don’t feel very energetic in the mornings, and they feel good sitting 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 complete) and work out in some ways 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 material arts classes, or challenge yourself to do sit ups at night. You’ll notice a change right away.

Of Your Time and Destiny!

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

There is no magic trick, power drink, or special class that makes a student stand out because they take charge of their time and their task, 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?

“Your name is a diamond: make sure it shines”

-Sergio Tovallin

I really enjoy this statement. It makes me want to do things so that people could know my name. The quote “Your name is a diamond: make sure it shines” means that you should do good things, so that when people see your name they know who you are and what you did. This also means that your name will shine to other people and they will know that you chose the right and you will be lucky enough to have a clean name.

The Average “C” Student

The Average “C” Student

6.EFFORTS : The “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 inhabits matching inquiry

 

8. RESULTS: “C” students obtain mediocre or inconsistent results on test. They have some concept of what is going on but clearly have not mastered the material.
