If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, then do not despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use meditation and visualization techniques to initiate your vision, and they can certainly be learned both for that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goals. Simply visualize your desired goals, that of being a star student a champion of doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding, and you’re your dreams and vision will materialize as you pursue these objectives. Setting goals and objectives can be a personal or business technique that can be learnt. You can apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from setbacks more easily.

“What I Will Do to Graduate from High School”

 

What I will do to graduate high school is study, work hard, and try my best. Sometimes the people that graduate high school are the students that study and have worked hard throughout the whole year of high school. These students might have worked hard since they were freshmen and some have been working since they were in tenth or eleventh grade. I will do my best to try to pass high school because then I will use that education I have learned to be prepared for when I go to a university or college. If I do not pass I will be disappointed and I will never get my chances of going to college. I am pretty sure I am doing well so far and if I keep it up it will be enough for me to graduate from high school and earn my diploma. I will try my most very best to graduate from high school and this will help me have a better understanding once I get to college. Also with the education I receive during high school will help me become a great learner during college and be able to become a nurse, doctor, or teacher. I like for myself to be successful in life not only in school. Some students that do not graduate from high school become a person with no way of living their lives as a successful person. I just feel sorry for those people who did not make it through high school and I am even more sorry for those that did not complete the entire years of high school. At least I am proud of myself for making it this far and completing all of my courses of classes and I would always be successful.

Study Hard	Be a good student	Be Successful
Try Your Best	Be Persistent	Be Yourself

What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestones 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 perseverance, 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 you are trying to succeed in, a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievably targets can all play an important role.

“Be Wise—Never use Drugs or Alcohol”

Some people might think that drugs and alcohol is a good thing so they use it all the time, well they thought wrong. Drugs and alcohol are never to enter your body because even though it might fell nice, but it is destroying your body. Damages that drugs and alcohol can cause to the body are brain damage, liver cancer, heart disease, pain in the throat, etc. The expression for the use of alcohol is disease, divorce, and death; they are known as the three D’s. Drugs on the other hand, can do much more. It can do very bad damage to the body like brain cancer, heart disease, liver cancer, liver damage, throat pain, excessive mouth irritation, pain in stomach, etc. Drugs and alcohol are something that is not to smile about because what it can do is very extremely bad damage to the body, so of causing terrible pain. You will feel agony and misery to as just drinking alcohol or taking drugs and it makes you feel that why did you take it in the first place. All lot of bad things can come from taking drugs and alcohol and your life would be better without it. Life without drugs or alcohol would be much better with no misery, no suffering, no regret and it is better that way. Most people spend the rest of their life locked up in their room feeling as if they have no life to live and some might even take their own life away regretting everything they have ever done while using drugs and alcohol. Some might even take their life away for they do not want to live because of the trauma they have for using drugs and alcohol and that is a very sad thing.

Whether studying or in general life, planning is an imperative skill. Here, we must strictly set the hours for studying, and should promote regularly in doing so. Don’t put off your studies to the last moment (just before the test), because in that moment you will be feeling stress and pressure, and both factors will prove disturbing for your learning; that’s the high price of procrastination. During the exam, it’s important to forget about panic stress. And if you are planning for your thesis, you may find this post useful. Other planning tip I frequently give is that, when you are assigned a homework, try to solve it as quickly as possible, several days before the required date, but don’t try to complete it perfectly and don’t try to complete it perfectly and don’t submit it immediately. I always recommend doing homework early, but deliver it at the last possible day.

·       They prefer tasks with some degree of difficulty and novelty, which stimulate their learning skills.

·       They don’t apply the simple criteria of success- fail to their learning. Remember, they are focused into the learning process.

·       They know how to handle groups.

·       Finally, they work with passion

Other chief habit is that of asking questions. We have to establish hypothesis and set concrete, realistic goals. After reading any text we have to ask several different questions related to its content, in order to verify if we have completely understood the text. It’s also important to try to relate such text and and other ideas of our knowledge. Again, linking ideas and concepts is a habit of highly successful student. So link.

·       They take on the process of solving the task and understanding the involved ideas. Of course we are interested in getting good results, but the process is more important. A result is a very brief moment of life, while learning to develop processes is a skill that will last for the whole life.

·       They interpret and analyze errors as a way of increasing their learning, i.e., they try to learn from their mistakes. This way, they see errors and failures as opportunities.

·        They look for the required information in several channels (books, journals, newspapers, experts, Internet, and so on.)

·       They consult experts and teachers frequently. This action provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

·       Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have to go out and search for those keys, or do we have those potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspects – life within and life without; internal life and external life – and we can see that these aspects are of equal importance. Even if we have renounced the world, gone far away from civilization, and live in the wilderness doing nothing much but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see that we eat, do our ablutions, and preform our practices on time. So life in the external world is as important as life in the internal world.

If you prefer to play video games, then remember that making any games requires to prepare a detailed script including history, characters, goals and relations. Therefore, you could start writing the script for your “dream” game. On the other side, you could imagine how the novel you are reading could be transformed into a videogame (start out by thinking which gaming genre fits the novel better: role-playing, adventure, action and so on.) The basic idea is to find the match points and links between our affection and our chores. And such links there always exist. Remember to link ideas and concepts is the most important habit for successful students.

 

Successful students also exhibit other particular traits we should internalize:

o  They are always trying to discover better approaches in order to accomplish their tasks (adequate studying place, availability of recourses, etc.) You may find my post on Pristine home with Feng Shui useful for improving your studying environment.

2- Success is about achieve achieving goals, therefore is a relative notion. Highly successful students are those set realistic goals, and attain them with the proper investment of resources. 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 on your list of driving      forces, it’s time to improve things quite a bit. First, identify other topics that you indeed like a lot, not necessarily related to studying. Perhaps you like pets, to cook or too 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. The 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 human have inner potentials, but many people are not aware of those 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 themselves can never love others.

"The Harmful Effects of Smoking"

Smoking is a really bad habit. Most people do not know what bad effects smoking can cause to their body until they find out for themselves. The effects it has on smokers are:

o  Bad lungs and lung cancer

o  Stroke

o  Affects gums

o  Tooth decay

o  Shorter lifespan

o  Rotting flesh

o  Liver damage

When smoking it can cause this kind of damage in the body. This is the reason why most people die of smoking due to damage to the body. The most damage in the body that smokers get is around the mouth and somewhat in the lungs and heart. Smoking also does damage to the organs like the brain, heart, lungs and the liver. Never ever smoke or you will end up damaging your body and create the risk of getting yourself killed.

If we are to succeed in life, we must hone our learning skills.

1-The first step in this direction is to sincerely point out the driving force or motivation. Let’s relax, and start listing the reasons that impel you to study some topics, as crude as they may be. It’s possible that your list is empty. Don’t worry, it only means that you have not identified any reason to study the chosen and very specific point (It’s for sure that you are an excellent learner in other areas of life.) If you don’t have any motivation to study, then give me the list of reasons why you don’t want to study, and please note that this list cannot be empty. Whether you found a huge list of driving forces or list of reasons for not studying, the end product of this step comprises at least one item (a positive or negative driving force)

By: Herrera

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 resilience 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 is a 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.
