Student Success Statement

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
I agree with this quote because being honest is very important. When you are honest you are being true to yourself and true to others. Honesty is very important because you learn to be fair with others and you learn not to cheat. It’s important because it is just the rule of life in my opinion. When people aren’t honest they are just being liars and you really want to be friends with someone who is a liar you might never know when that person can lie to you, when people lie people get hurt and you also hurt yourself because we should never be cheaters we should learn to always tell the truth no matter what that is what makes you a good person by being honest. When you are honest people believe you and it feels good to be honest about things. Honesty can get you to many places it can get you to your goals you just have to learn to be honest it isn’t hard just do what you know your heart feels is right.

Student Success Statement

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
I love this quote because it says that you should never doubt yourself. In my opinion this quote means that you shouldn’t think about what is going to happen like if you’re going to win or not just think about that you are trying your best to do something. That is when we bring positive thinking because that is what helps you get through whatever it is you want to accomplish in life. Everyone can win you just have to learn to set your mind to it and also not have a negative attitude because when you think negative well things are just going to go bad for you that’s why we have to think positive about ourselves and think that we can do this even if it takes time we can all accomplish something that we want. Don’t stress yourself over things because if you think about it too much then something might go wrong we need to have patience within ourselves and I can guarantee you that it’s going to be ok.

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 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, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.
