Student Success Statement
"Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind."
-B.C Forbes
Reflection:
What this statement probably means is that if honesty is what shows your character and that an honest person wouldn't do what is wrong, but be strong and fair. In other words, honesty represents character and the honest man/woman always is fair, respectful, and brave. For example, someone who is honest shows that they are fair and brave, but a dishonest person shows that they are cowards and unfair.

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
Reflection:
What this statement means is that it doesn't matter if win or lose but on concentrating on what is happening now. In other words, don't worry if you are winning or losing, but only focus on what is going on right at that very moment. For example, you are playing a soccer game and your team is losing, don't worry about it and only focus on what is going right at that moment.

Time Management

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 require 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 tomorrow’s 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 and 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 most of it while
it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by
mastering the present moment.
