Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement
“the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Thus the first law I will obey, precedeth all others is—‘I will form good habits and become their slaves.”
-Og Mandino-
I agree with this statement because if you follow the rules and instructions you will always succeed but if you don’t you will always fail and won’t be or do nothing in life besides harm to yourself.

“Whether I fail or success shall be no man’s doing but my own. I am the force.”
Elaine Maxwell
I agree with this statement because your decisions, your education, or job depend on the effort you put in it, not the neighbor’s or a friend’s effort. You will succeed if you desire of fail as well. It depends on the efforts you put in it and the dedication you take on it.

Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help your teen take control and responsibility for her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball is in their court, that they’re captain of their own ship. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey school policies. Obey parents. Obey with exactness, and great things will come to you. Be proactive and take initiative.

“you make your habits and your habits make you.”
-Anon-
I agree with this statement because you make you decisions and whatever you choose, you’ll get a consequence back, either good, or bad. If you have a habit of not doing your assignments in class, then your habits will lead you to fail the class and to disappoint the people surrounding you. However if you have a habit of doing your homework and assignments, then you will pass the class and your faily will be proud of you.

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens By Sean Covey


7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
By Sean Covey
For teens, life is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And, being the parent of a teenager isn't always any walk in the park, either. In his book, The 7 Habitats of Highly Effective Teens, author Sean Covey attempts to provide “a compass to help teens and their parents navigate the problems they encounter daily.”
How will they deal with peer pressure? Motivations? Success or lack thereof? The life of a teenager is full of tough issues and life—changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help them to reach their goals and live a successful life.
While it’s all well and good to tell kids how to live their lives, “teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say,” Covey says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential.
Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen, wrote a book The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies. Sean’s a chip off the old block, and no slacker. His own book has rung in more than 2 million copies sold here are his 7 habits, and some ideas for helping your teen understand and apply them:
