Student Success Statement

“Success is dependent on effort.”

-Sophocles, Greek dramatist

What I think this statement is saying is that the only way you can become successful is if you put effort into your work. If you don’t put effort into your work then you’ll end up failing and that’s not what you want you want be successful.

Choose Where to Study

Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment which you are best able to con

·       The best places to study have good light, comfortable temperature and enough desk place-usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.

·       for completing problem sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.

·       when you are reading a book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.

Improve Your Study Habits

Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:

·       Have a routine for where and when you study

·       Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.

·       Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.

·       Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not absorbing it.

·       Get know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.

·       Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

Tips 5-10

Tip 5 reviews your notes every day.

Reviewing helps your reinforce what you’ve learned, so you need less time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take a pop quiz.

Tip 6 gets a good night’s sleep.

Your brain need’s rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer and your tasks seem more difficult.

Tip 7 communicates your schedule to others.

If phone calls or text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you are only available at certain times of day and not to expect a response at other times.

Tip 8 becomes a taskmaster.

Give yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.

Tip 9 doesn’t waste time agonizing.

Instead of agonizing and procrastinating just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress.

Tip 10 determines your priorities.

You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of each item then set realistic goals that are attainable.

What I think this statement mean is that you shouldn’t hang out with the bad crowd of people in even with just one wrong person, because if your company is bad they’ll try to make you be bad. If you are in company with good people then you will have good company that wouldn’t want to get you in trouble and if you hang out with bad people you’ll just be as bad.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw

3.    Heart: Always do what is right so your heart, your conscience, will feel peaceful. When you do wrong, your conscience will prick you and create regretful sensations within your heart. When you do what you honestly feel, you won’t have any regrets. Your heart is your internal compass—its gives you direction and discernment. Just like a magnetic compass gives you directions, even true north, your personal compass, your heart, will point you in the true north, the exact directions and paths you need to trod.

4.     Soul: Study scriptures and other sacred literature daily. In other words, feed your spirit because your spirit needs spiritual food just like your physical body needs temporal food to survive. Pondering, meditating, and reflecting are excellent Soul-sharpening activities. Try writing your thoughts, feelings, aspirations, concern, and decisions in a diary or journal. Writing helps you focus and make good decisions.

Get into the habit of daily improving your body (physical fitness), your mind, your heat, and your soul.

Habit 7

Teens should never get too busy living to take time to renew them. When teens “sharpen the saw” they are keeping their personal self-sharp so that they can better deal with life. It means regularly renewing and strengthening the four key dimensions of life body, mind, heart, and soul.

1)           Body, eat wholesome foods, fruits, vegetables, legumes. Avoid illegal drugs, smoking, alcohol, tobacco products, tattooing. Exercise regularly and effectively. Get plenty of rest at night. Get to bed early at night and get up early each morning. “Early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

2)           Mind thinks positively. Read study. Think. Analyze. Seek to read a good book each month. Then each week. Ask intelligent questions. Observe. Develop your mind through positive.

Synergy is archived when two or more people work together to create something better than either could alone. Through this habit, teens learn it doesn’t have to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way. Synergy allows teens to value difference and better appreciate others. Synergy is the reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other habits, especially at thinking win-win and seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize is like learning to form v formations with others instead of trying to fly through life solo. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and farther you’ll go. Synergy doesn’t just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is this: learn to celebrate difference. A good band is real great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, it’s all of them together that make up the “sound.’’

 This statement means when people want and try to become more popular, and not apart on the “in-group” that start to forget thing that are right and more important. For example, if you get invited to a cool party and go instead of doing your homework or study for a test, that’s choosing the wrong. Popularity isn't worth ruining your education.

Because most people don’t listen very well, one of the great frustrations in life is that many don’t feel understood? This habit will ensure your teens learn the most important communication skill there is: active listening. Why is this habit the key to communication? It’s because the deepest need of the human heart is to be understood everyone wants to be respected and valued for who they are-a unique, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-cloned individual. People won’t expose their soft middles unless they feel genuine love and understanding. Once they it. Listen with your eyes, heart, and ears “percent of communication is contained in the words we use. The rest comes from body language: (53 percent) and how we say words, or the tone and feeling reflected in our voice (40 percent) most people are eager to talk and had rather talk than listen. We have one mouth and two ears. Listen really listen, for understanding. Seek first to understand.

4. Think win-win

Teens can learn to foster the belief that it is possible to create an atmosphere of win-win in every relationship. This habit encourages the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the accomplishments of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is a belief that everyone can win. It’s both nice and tough all at once. I won’t step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to succeed as well. Win-Win is abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food for everyone. It’s an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Win-Win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising benefits of thinking Win-Win is the good feelings it brings on. The true test of whether or not you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives is how you feel. Win-Lose and Lose-Win thinking will cloud your judgment and fill you with negative feelings.

Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill with light. Think Win-Win or no deal.

Habit 2: begin with the end in mind

If teens aren’t clear about where they want to end up in life, about their values, goals, and what they stand for, they still wander, waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the opinions of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road map and direct and guide his decision- making process. Keep your eyes on the price.” Determine your desired price and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your price. Then set another price, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Begin with the achievement of your price in the mind; know where you are going. One price or goal you definitely need to establish for your-self is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school-that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity that you earned it with perfect honesty.

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 are the captain of their own ship; that they are in control. Control of their own decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions, goals, actions, and priories. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibility their obligations.

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens By: Sean Covey

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens

And, being the parent of a teenager isn't any walk in the park, either. In his book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, author Dean 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? Motivation? 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 had done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen Covey, wrote the 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 a more than respectable 2 million copies sold. Here are his seven habits, and some ideas for helping your teen understand and apply them:

Owning a computer with internet access from your home is ideal but many students use the computer labs on campus or at their offices to complete their work.

Enrage regularly in the discussions and be willing to share your personal and educational experiences. You can get to know your classmates through the dialogue that is created in a course environment- sometimes even better in a face-to-face class. And the same goes for your instructor. Be sure to contact your professor- especially if you are having problems. He/she is still your instructor and will be there to guide and assist you as needed.

A successful student…

… Takes responsibility for his/her own learning.

Online learning can be a powerful, stimulating, enraging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if not all-of the learning takes places on your own time, you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you’re willing to invest in the experience-this is particularly true in the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all key qualities to ensuring success in an online course!

… Is comfortable and confident with written communication.

Reading and writing are the basis of most online courses, so it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of you communication with you classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an online course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you.

 10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.

An elemental truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skill problem for college students. It ultimately causes many students to become non-students! Procrastinators are good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!
