Acquiring the habits of highly successful students part 13
Acquiring
the habits of highly successful students
Part 13
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 and doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to
become an outstanding and you’re your
dreams and your visions will materialize
as you pursue these objectives. Setting goals and objectives can be a personal
or business technique that can be learnt. You can develop inner strength to succeed if you apply
you to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from from setbacks more
easily.

Part 10
·
They prefer tasks
with some degree of difficulty and novelty, which simulate their learning
skills.
·
They don’t apply the
simple criteria of success- fail to their learning
·
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 o verify if we completely understood the text. Its also
important to try to relate such text and other areas of our knowledge. Again,
linking ideas and concepts is a habit of highly successful people. So, link.

· They
concentrate 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
action provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

2- Success is about achieving goals, and
therefore is a relative notion. Highly successful students are those which 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 in 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 to play
videogames. 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 Harmful Effects of Smoking”
“The Harmful Effects of Smoking”
There are so many deaths today in the U.S that are caused by smoking. People tend to have the bad habit of smoking cigarettes and others are even addicted to it. Smoking leads to dangerous consequences. It extremely harms you and your body to the point where you physically look disgusting. People who smoke to the max mess up their lungs making them turn black and making them not function anymore. Other people get oral cancer making their whole mouth turn black and nasty. There are seriously some horrible effects of smoking. I don’t understand why people smoke; all they’re doing is messing up their system. Smoking not only affects you but can also affect the people around you causing them to inhale the smoke you let out of your mouth. This is called second hand smoke. You should stop smoking or if you’ve never tried I warn you to never do it so you could prevent:
· Oral cancer
· Lung cancer
· Throat cancer
· Heart Attacks
· Harming others around you
· Addiction
· Trouble Breathing

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
renounce the world, gone far away for civilization, and live in the wilderness
doing nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to
see that we eat, do our ablutions, and perform our practices on time. So life
in the external world is as important as life in the internal world. Even one
who has renounced the world has to understand the word relationship properly, because
life itself its actually relationship.

We human are
intimate learners as learning is the cornerstone for survival. We must remember
abstract and apply knowledge in diverse (and often harsh) environment in order
to develop into and behave as truly intelligent beings. In short the
adaptability and resilience we exhibit stems from leering now a key issue to
learning is the ring 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.) wean learn just out of curiosity (our natural inquisitive behavior.)
we can learn because we want to reach some sisal status (approval of others is
a potent stimuli to learn.) wean 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.

“The Importance Of Working Hard In School”
“The Importance Of Working Hard In School”
School is
not only a place where you can go and talk to your friends. School is not a
place where you can act like a fool and go to sleep. School is a place where
you come to learn
and work hard. It
is a place where you need to stay focused and determined. School is the base of
our future. We need to work hard to achieve our goals. School makes a person
responsible. When you work hard in school you not only feel good yourself but
also highlights the acknowledged and hardworking student you are. If you do not
work hard in school you will never be anything important in life, because
school can get you to have a career and a fine job where you earn a lot of
money. You need to choose the right by
working hard in school.

How Successful Students Prepare for Tests
Part 1
Are you really doing
everything you can to prepare for tests? Re-reading the chapter and looking
over your notes is not enough. Below is a list of tips for test preparation
from successful students.
1. Keep up to date with assignments.
2. Take notes in every class
every day. This includes asking questions when you don’t understand.
3. Process information as you come to
it. Learning information is much different than “becoming acquainted” with it.
4.
Process information systematically. Label
in the margin works well for most people.
5. Adapt it to suit your
learning styles. Capitalize on the discipline label in the margin requires and
make it habit to process information from texts and lectures, not just go over
it.
6. Have a study place that is free of
distractions.
7.
Have a specific time
for initial study of each subject. You may need more than this time, but having
a set time will save you time.

The Secrets of Successful Students
The Secrets of
Successful Students
Part 2
Successful students take charge of their
lives and balance their time between fun and work. They know that there is a
time for all-nighters, and it’s not during final week.
Successful students take care of themselves
do you live on junk food and lay on the couch watching TV every night? Students
with poor physical habits probably don’t feel very energetic in the morning,
and they probably don’t feel good sitting in class either.
Good food
and a little exercise will clear your hand! Students who eat junk in moderation
(you really don’t have to cut it out completely) and work out in some way are
most likely-to participate in sports. That means they have more balanced in
their lives, feels better in the mornings, and are more alert in class.
You just
have to change a few habits to feel better. Eat healthy foods, start walking more,
take a yoga class, enroll in martial arts classes, or challenge yourself to do
sit-ups at night. You’ll notice a change right away.
Thank you, Grace
Fleming, for you suggestions.
