"Stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on whats happening right this moment."

Phil Jackson

 What this successful statement is teaching us is that we should pay more attention to the present than the future. I agree with this because if you worry about something that you don't know and it hasn't happen you will get distracted from the present and will lose your time worrying on something that it might not happen. It's important to live in the present and enjoy every day of life, every day is a new chance to make the right and live your life the fullest.

Time Management

8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time classes, homework and activities with some family help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs required multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting new ones, respond to e-mails while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrows produce while planning next week’s menu.

Someone said, “Wherever you are, be there.” Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.

  What this successful statement is teaching us is that truth is very important and it's safe ground to stand upon. This is very true because if your honest many great things will come to you and if you are not honest and lies then people wont trust you and it might affect your future life. Always be honest and choose whats right.

Attention to Detail

 7 of 10

 When you double-check your calculations for a math problem or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re playing 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 teams to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attribute his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that playing 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 comes great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

 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 as practice for the work worlds own explosive situations. You could someday find yourself meeting tight deadlines, speaking with irate customers, wielding scalped or handling dangerous chemicals.

"Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable."
Peter F. Drucker

 This successful statement is teaching us is to start with the right foot instead of starting with the left foot. If you do something to be acceptable you might not be doing the right because you are not being honest with yourself. For example today is started my morning with the left foot because I'm  lefty, but i made choices to attend to school today and learn something rather than staying home and watching the walking death and playing video games. Its important to be yourself and start with what is right.

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 course through project, 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.

Problem-Solving Skills

   4 of 10

Problem solving goes far beyond your math textbook. Every assignment is an opportunity to weigh all possible solutions carefully and choose the one you think is best. As a working professional, you’ll be solving problems regularly, whether it’s fixing a bug in a computer program or overcoming budget shortfalls. Problem solving situations occur extensively and frequently; therefore, be ready when then come.

When problems or challenges occur, some people look at them at negative experiences, as crisis. These people are the ones who live day by day with gloom and negativism in their attitudes. But the really successful people, those who are cheerful and optimistic, are those who look at problems as opportunities, opportunities to learn, grow, expand their horizons, and make new discoveries. They look on the bright side of things and live happy lives.

"Education is a marathon--not a sprint"
          Anon

Teamwork Skills

3 of 10

Every time your class breaks into groups to tackle a challenge, you build teamwork skills. In college, you’ll continue to have these opportunities to practice voicing your opinions, listening and responding to others, and reaching compromises. By the time you leave college, you can be an expert in this important workplace skill.

 Muhammad Ali

If you have no wings you wont get no where but with the imagination you can fly and go far in the world and accomplished your dreams. Don't be afraid to try, if you never try you will never know. 

Speaking Skills

2 of 10

 When you’re assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing it as an unimportant part of your education. Employers look for speaking skills in job applicants, who may have to give presentations to client or represent their organization in the field. It’s never too soon to practice good eye contact and other public speaking techniques

http:/www.newswiretoday.com/news/17334/ 

According to The Book of List, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in the minds of the majority of people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a crowd.  Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker want to help people overcome that fear.

“The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of America experience a dramatic fear of it,” said Dr. Michael Telch of the laboratory for the study of Anxiety Disorders (LSAD) in the Department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin. “People have dropped classes because of it.” 

Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon your ability to communicate effectively! Whether you’re running a meeting, selling a product, making a presentation motivating co-workers or just communicating one-on-one with others, you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common then unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "Press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

-Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States

It's important to be persistence because it shows that you care and will fight for your dreams no matter what. You will go far if you are persistence, even if you don't have talent or smart.

Writing Skills

1 Of 10

  Communication is at the top of the list of skills that employers look for. And communication in the workplace often means writing.

Health professionals keep patient charts, researches depend on the money they collect by writing grant application, software engineers write technical specifications, and nearly everyone writes e-mail to people inside and outside their organization. And before you even get the chance to interview for a job, you’ll need to present yourself in cover letters and resumes.

So, by taking writing serious and doing your best on every research paper, every lab report you write, every new post you write in your blog site and every writing activity you engage in, you’re preparing yourself for a good career.

"To see what is right and not to do it is want of courage."
 Confucius

What this successful statement is teaching us is that if you are in a situation where you know what the right thing to do is, and you don't do it anyway, then you are cowardly or weak of morale and lack courage. This is true because if you have whats right in front of your face and you choose to do the wrong that's just sad to know. For example if you choose not to do a project in school that will help you raise your grade to a C and you don't do it, that's lack of courage and choosing the wrong.

You've probably used the internet to do research for a paper, to help you decide which product to buy, or to form an opinion about current events. Looking up information online is fast and convenient. But when you do online research, it’s important to find sites you can trust.

Many websites claim to have the facts, but are full of errors. Other present information in a biased way- they only give one side of an argument. How can you tell a reliable source from an unreliable one? Also, it is critical that you post online only that which is decent, out of taste, untruthful, or obscene.

5 tips for success

Tip 5: Keep a list of questions

When you feel confuse about something you’re reading, write down any question you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they've read the text and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teacher can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asks by the learner.

Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to others, is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.

The philosopher sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book.. and a pen.

5 tips for success

Tip 3: do research

Literary critics have written vars numbers of analytically and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides.

Tip 4: use a dictionary

Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. Rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

 by John Wooden

5 tips for studying motivated

To succeed in high school and college, you have to do your best at all times. But sometimes its hard to stay motivated, even when you really care about the work you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.

1.       Focus on High-impact Activities

The key to success in high school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall picture of your workload before you start to tackle any of it. Then, make a plan. Although its tempting to do the simplest assignments first, those that take more time and effort to accomplished are probably the ones that you’ll learn the most from

To determine what your priorities are, rank your assignments in the order of their importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on your course work and grades. For example, even though all homework assignments are important, studying for a midterm exam takes priority over writing a paragraph for English class. As you can complete each task, think of it as another step on your way to college success.

2.       Create new challenges

Changing your approach can help you stay interesting in what you’re doing. If you’ve been given an assignment similar to one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a different way. If you wrote an essay for creative writing assignment last year, try a poem this time. For book reports, pick a history book instead of another biography

Flash cards bound like act like a small book and pages. You can even have separate ringed stacks for each subject. Whatever you want to remember put it on the card.

·         Organize as you write. Pay attention to cues such as repetition and emphasis.

·         Indicate main and supporting points as you go.

“When you believe you can- you can.”

Dr. Maxwell Maltz

What this successful statement is teaching us is to believe in our self’s that we can accomplished it. These quote teach us that nothing it’s impossible if you believe in yourself. I agree with Maxwell because if you actually try you can accomplish it. For example if you keep putting yourself down that you can’t do it every time you make a mistake you’re going to feel worse and worse and you’re going to feel worthless and you may quit but if you start believing that you can every mistakes you make your going to try harder and harder that’s when you learn from your mistakes to be a better person.

Distance Education: is a virtual classroom for you?

            Part 4 of 4

Emphasis on the written word

Most of the communication, as well as the course work, in distance learning classes is written. That’s a plus, because the focus on the written word gives you the opportunity to develop as a writer- and strong writing skills are essential to academic success. However, if writing is a serious weakness for you, virtual learning may not be the best educational option until you improve your skills. Yes, most of distance education is the written word; therefore, you need to be a good reader, love to read, and love writing also. Most of your assignments will be written and submitted to the instructor in the written format. Your penmanship needs to be excellent, spelling great, sentences structure above average, vocabulary extraordinary. You need to have online access with reliable equipment. If your internet communications at home isn’t working, you can’t do online education from home and will need to go to someplace where you do have access to the internet.

Decide whether it’s right for you

Distance isn’t for everyone, but it just might be for you. You really should seek it out and give it a try. You never know until you try. You might even fall in love with distance education. While distance education may be the perfect alternative for some students, it’s not the right choice for everyone. So carefully consider your unique needs and interest and give distance education a try; then, decide if its right for you.
