-Elizabeth Cady Stanton

When you make wrong decisions for example lie that you didn’t cheat on a test when you know you did is not living in safe grounds. You are living in the worst grounds that can make you unhappy. You will only be able to stand strong and proud on the grounds of truth. 

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.

“Everyone is the architect of their own learning.”

-Claudius

No one can take your knowledge away from you, as well as known is in control of your learning but you. You decide what is important in your learning, what to fill your mind with. You shape your learning not only in school but in all bases, such as learning how to tie your shoe, or learning new skills in a job. Never make the mistake in architecting a mind of choosing the wrong. Architect a mind full of choosing the right which will lead you to a successful future. An example is you can architect you learning in just reading a book your vocabulary will expand.

Cool Under Pressure

6 of 10

 Very few students enjoy taking tests. Yet functioning well under pressure is crucial to your future success. Try thinking of the pressure of testing as practice for the work world’s own explosive situations. You could someday find yourself meeting tight deadlines, speaking with irate customers, wielding a scalpel or handling dangerous chemicals.

The best way to curtail pressure and to even eliminate it is to prepare. Applying the motto “Be Prepared” holds true first time and every time. Prepare for that test, and you won’t worry about it. In fact, it will be your chance to shine, to reveal the hard work you have put into preparing for the test. You will be rewarded for the effort you have thrust into your studies. Preparation removes fear. When you are prepared, you will not fear. Preparation helps you maintain your cool under pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm; therefore, prepare and your coolness under pressure is sure to abound.

“Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.”

-Peter F. Drucker

 

In many occasions we start doing things that seem acceptable to us because we are afraid to stand out. Don’t make that mistake again, always start with what is right. Starting with what is right will help you succeed better and faster than to start with what is acceptable. When starting in a new school with no friends, often teenagers do what is acceptable to others to fit in. NO! Always start with what is right because in the end that crowd you desired to fit in will not be there. Another example is when turning in an assignment always do what is right, put all your effort into it and don’t turn it in late because it is acceptable, because later in life you will not be able to get rid of that bad habit. 

Initiative 5 of 10

Initiative

5 of 10

Initiative is creativity, inventiveness, originality, ingenuity, imagination. Every time you respond in class, every time you choose your own research topic, every time you put together your own interpretation of a piece of literature, you take initiative. And future employers value can do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own courses through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do and do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.

“To be great—concentrate.”

-Orson Swett Marden

When you concentrate on something you manage to focus to really know what you are doing or learning. When you concentrate on something you can be great because you will be able to master anything you want. Concentration can be a great factor of success. For example when you concentrate on studying for a certain test you block everything you really get your mind working, then when it is time for the test you will do great because you have mastered it with concentration. Use concentration wisely on things that can help you.
