Student Success Statement

“Stop worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what’s happening right this moment.”

-Phil Jackson

When you are attempting to focus on something sometimes you wonder off jumping into conclusions on the future. You have to focus all your attention on the moment because if you do great in that moment you will do great later on. It’s all on skills to focus. For example when you are reviewing for a certain class focus all your attention in order to master the subject and have no trouble on the test. If you master that subject later on you will be able to master other subject and develop a great skill.

Attention to Detail 7 of 10

Attention to Detail

7 to 10

When you double-check your calculations for a math problem or cite source carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.

John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who lead his team to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that paying attention to details was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.

Details may be small things but from small things come great thing; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.
