Student Success Statement

We need the courage to start and continue what we should do and the courage to stop what we shouldn’t do”

Student Responsibilities Part 3

 

         What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestone 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, and reinforce your determination to succeed.

Some of the key characteristics you will find in those who are successful are perservance, 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 to you are trying to succeed in, a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievable targets can all play an important role.  

If you feel you do not normally have all those characteristics, then don’t despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use meditation and visualization techniques to imitate your vision, and they can certainly be learned both for that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goal. Setting goals and objectives can be learnt. You can develop inner strength to succeed if you apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from setbacks more easily.

the importance of good sportmanship


“The Important of Good Sportsmanship”

It is important to be a good sport in any game or event. It is important because if you don’t show good sportsmanship everyone will be mad at you for getting mad if you lose. If you win you can also be gloating in people’s faces and making fun of them all just because they lost and you won that can make them really sad even though they tried their best. So you should be a good sport and show sportsmanship whether you lose or win. If you do show good sportsmanship your team/ opposing team will admire you and be happy with you because you didn’t get mad at them or gloat that you won and they didn’t Showing good sportsmanship is an example of choosing the right.

The following is a example of Good Sportsmanship:

·      Sports

·      Tests

·      School

·      Videogames

·      Who has a better job

7. Succeessful students understand that actions affect learning. Successful students know their personal behavior affect learning.

If you act in a certain way that normally produces particular feelings, you will begin to experience those feelings. Act like you’re bored, and you’ll become bored. Act like you’re disinterested, and you’ll become disinterested, and you’ll become disinterested. So the next time you have trouble concentrating in the classroom, “act” like an interested person: lean forward, place your feet flat on the floor, maintain eye contact with the professor, nod occasionally, take notes, and ask questions. Not only will you benefit directly from your actions, your classmates and professor

8. Successful students talk about what they’re learning. Successful Students get to know something well enough that they can put it into words. Talking about something \

Transferring ideas into words provides the most direct path for moving knowledge from short term to long term memory. You

          4. Successful students learn that a student and a teacher make a team. Most teachers want exactly what you want: they would like for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grade. Successful students reflect well on the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned your material, the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not an enemy, you share the same interests, the same goals-in short, you’re teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual successes. Neither wishes to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player!

5. Successful students don’t sit in the back.

Successful Students


Successful Students

         Successful students exhibit a combination of successful attitudes and behaviors as well as intellectual capacity. Successful students

1. Successful students are responsible and active. Students get involved in their studies, accept responsibility for their own education, and are active participants in it!

Responsibility means control. It’s the difference between leading and being led. Your own efforts control your grade, you earn the glory or deserve the blame you, make the choice. Active classrooms participation improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored, daydream, or sleep. Or you can actively listen, think, questions, and take notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either option costs one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of learning the latter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.

2. Successful students have educational goals. Successful students have legitimate goals and are motivated by what they represent in terms of career aspirations and life’s devices. Ask yourself these questions: What am I doing here? Why have I chosen?

many students do not know what it takes to be successful in the educational environment.

They understand good and bad grades in a general way, and they sense that they should attend classes, but that is where their knowledge begins ends .

Most instructors know what a good student is –and is not. For one thing, a good student is not necessarily the most intelligent individual in the class.

The following is a list of some characteristics of good students. This list is a description of what a hard-working student does and what a teacher likes to see.

44. They don’t rationalize failure. While many are talking about their age, their sore back, their lack of time, their poor genetics, their ‘bad luck’, their nasty boss and their lack of opportunities (all good reasons to fail), they are finding a way to succeed despite all their challenges.

45. They have an off switch. They know how to relax, enjoy what they have in their life and to have fun.

46. Their career is not their identity, it’s their job. It’s not who they are, it’s what they do.

47. They are more interested in effective than they are in easy. While the majority look for the quickest, easiest way (the shortcut), they look for the course of action which will produce the best results over the long term.

26. Their desire to be exceptional means that they typically do things that most won’t.  They become exceptionally by choice. Were all faced with life-shaping decisions almost daily. Successful people make the decisions that most wont and don’t.

27. While many people are pleasure junkies and avoid pain and discomfort at all costs, successful people understand the value and benefits of working through the tough stuff that most would avoid.

28. They have identified their core values (what is important to them) and they do their best to live a life which is reflected of those values.

29. They have balance. While they may be financially successful, they know that the terms money and success are not interchangeable. They understand that people who are successful; at all. Unfortunately we live in a society which teaches that money equals success. Like many other things, money is a tool. It’s certainly not a bad thing but ultimately; it’s just another resource. Unfortunately, too many people worship it.

30. They understand the importance of discipline and self –control. They are strong. They are happy to take the road less traveled.

What is personality? The word “personality” comes from the root persona, which means “mask”. Our personality is a mask that we wear. We don’t have to wear a mask when we are by ourselves: we wear a mask to express ourselves to others. Our personality is a character, and that character is composed of certain habits; so when we want to understand our habit patterns s a conscious thought or action that one represents again and again. This creates a groove in the unconscious habit. Unconscious habits are stronger than conscious habits. All habit patterns are self-created. When we sit down and try to understand which of our habits control our life, we see that there are many deep-rooted habits within us. Choose

we should understand our capacities and potentials, and then we should express ourselves in the external world with full confidence, acting steps without any reservations. Thus there are three in performing an action: first, forming an opinion within ourselves; second, expressing our opinion to others; and third, executing our opinion in action.
