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

                                                                                Coach David Diamont

    

     This quote I think means that if you take care of yourself everything that surrounds you will get better. If you make the right actions and decisions with yourself, you should make right actions and decisions with everything else. For example “Make sure you love yourself, before you die within.”

2- Success is about achieving goals, and therefore is a relative motion. Highly successful students are those which set realistic goals, and attain them with the proper investment of resource. Thus, not necessarily the student with the best grades is the most successful learner. Now, we have stated what the successful student is like. Good.

2- If you have negative entries in your list of driving forces, it’s time to improve things quite a lot. First, identify other topics that you indeed like a lot, not necessarily related to studying. Perhaps you like pets, to cook or to play video games. Now, try to establish associations or links between these favorite activities of yours and the subject of study that you dislike. For example, let’s assume that you dislike literature ( you perhaps think it’s an utterly boredom) but love your humongous pit- bull “Casino Joe” Then you could start thinking how your dog would fit as a character into that novel you have to analyze what its role would be and how he would interact with other characters in the novel.

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

All humans being have inner potentials, but many people are not aware of these potentials and do not know how to use them to have a successful life. Those who are not happy internally can never be happy externally; those who are not happy within themselves can never make others happy. Those who do not love themselves can never love others.

                                                       Part 1                                                               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 beings. In short, the adaptability and redolence 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 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 in potent stimuli to learn.) We can learn simply because we love to learn new things every day. 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 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 finals week.

Successful Students Take Care of Themselves Do you live on junk food and lay on the couch watching TV every night.” Students with poor physical habits probably don’t feel very energetic in the morning, and they probably don’t 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 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 at night. You’ll notice a change right away.

It’s a matter of taking charge of your time & 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 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 then when assignments are due or when test dates are approaching.

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 response.

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

ATTITUDE: “C” students are not visibly committed to class. They participate without enthusiasm. Their body language often expresses boredom.

 TALENT: “C” students vary enormously in 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.

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?

 

 

The “A” Student – An Outstanding Student

 

1.  ATTENDANCE: “A” students have virtually perfect attendance. Their commitment to the class is a high priority and exceeds other temptations.

 

2. PREPARATION: “A” students are prepared for class. They always read the assignment. Their attention to detail is such that they occasionally can elaborate on class examples.

 

3. CURIOSITY: “A” students demonstrate interest in the class and the subject. They look up or dig out what they don’t understand. They often ask interesting questions or make thoughtful comments.

 

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