Student Success Statement


Choose The Right!!!
Student Success Statement
“Take care of yourself and everything else will fall into place” Coach David Diamont
The quote is saying if you always choose the right and work hard you will have an easier and better life in the future but if you waste your time fooling around and choosing the wrong you will regret it because you will only end up hurting yourself. Always try to do what you think is right so you can benefit from it later on. Never let someone bring you down just because you are not doing something cool. If you know it’s wrong don’t do it.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students  
                Part 13
If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, then don not despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use mediation 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 right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding, and you’re your dreams and vision will materialize as you pursue these objectives. Settings goals and objectives can be a personal or business technique that 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.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students


  Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students

                                            PART 12

What is Important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestones in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It’s a boost, of course, if others 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 achievable targets can all play an important role.

Whether studying or in general life, planning is an imperative skill. Here, we must strictly set the hours for studying, and should promote regularity 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 and stress. And if you are planning for your thesis, you may find the 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 submit it immediately. I always recommend doing homework early, but deliver it at the last possible day.

Why do people do drugs?

[Pick the date]
 

                  “Be wise-Never use drugs”
Alcohol is wrong and makes your life a nightmare and makes you get into problems. Alcohol should not even be a part of your life. Always try to avoid doing alcohol or any kind of nonsense. It might seem cool to you and your friends but later you will regret it. When your parents tell you not to do this they tell you it for your own good. Look at how people turn out when they drink and smoke. When you smoke you get cancer and if you were athletic you become lazy.
A reason people might do these type of things is because of depression or problems they are having at home or school. The best way to avoid this is to get into a sport and not get tempted by the bad things in the world. If you are doing these things right now you should stop right now. If your parents are the ones that do it do not follow in their footsteps because you will end up failing in life. God did not put you in this world so you can mess up your life by doing drugs and drinking something that kills you in the long run. If someone offers you some of these items tell them no and walk away. It does not matter if they make fun of you or criticize you. Try not to fall for the temptation of thes bad things. You always have a choice but it’s up to you to make the right one.
