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

“Education
is the key to unlock the golden gate of freedom.”
George Washington Cerver
This is very much true.
If we do not become wise enough to stop taking education for granted, we will
never get anywhere. I truly believe education is the most fundamental factor
for a successful life.

Successful Students
Part 2
4. Successful students learn that a student and a
teacher make a team. Most teachers want exactly what you want: they would like
for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grade.
Successful students reflect well on the efforts of any
teacher, if you have learned your material, the instructor takes some
justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not
an enemy, and you share the same interest, the same goals – in short, your
teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players on the
same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to
chalk up a losing season. Be a team player!
5. Successful students don’t sit in the back.
Successful students minimize the classroom distractions that interfere with
learning. Students want the best seat available for their entertainment
dollars, but willingly seek the worst seat for their educational dollars.
Students who sit in the back cannot possibly be their
teacher’s teammate. Why do they expose themselves to the temptations in
inactive classroom experiences and distractions of all the people between them
and their instructor? Of course, we know they chose the back of the classroom
because

Student Success Statement
“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be
true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he
is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.”
-Abraham Lincoln
I think Abraham gave
us a very important message to live by. He’s telling us to stand for what we
believe in and stay true to ourselves. We must not let people influence our
thoughts, especially when they’re no good.
Successful Students
Successful Students
exhibit a combination of
successful attitudes and behaviors
as well as
intellectual capacity .
1. Successful students are responsible and active. Successful
students get involved in their studies, accept responsibility for their own
education, and are active participation in it.
Responsibility means control. It’s the difference between
leading and being led. Your own efforts control your grade, you earn the glory
or deserve the blame, and you make the choice. Active classroom participation
improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored,
daydream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, question, and take
notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either option costs
one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of
additional work outside of class achieve the same degree of additional work
outside of class to achieve the same degree of learning the latter provides at
one sitting. The choice is yours.
2. Successful students
have educational goals. Successful students have legitimate goals and are
motivated by what they represent in terms of career aspirations and life’s
desires. Ask yourself these questions: What am I doing here? Why have I chosen
to be sitting here now? Is there some better place I could be? What does my
presence here mean to me? Answers to these questions represent your “Hot
Buttons” and are, without a doubt, the most important factors in your success
as a college student.

“Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and
truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.”
Benjamin Franklin
There is no use in being the most beautiful women if you’re still
not beautiful inside. There is no use in being the most powerful men alive, if
you won’t use it for good. There is also no point in having all the money in
world if you’re not going to help the needy. There are certain things we must
do in order to feel good, like doing whatever is right.

Many student do not
know what it takes to be successful in the educational environment
they understand good and bad
grades in a general
way and they sense that they should attend classes,
but that is where their knowledge begins and ends.
Most instructors
know what a good student is – and is not. For one thing, a good student is not
necessarily the most intelligent individual in the class.
They sense that
they should attend classes, but that is where their knowledge begins and ends.
The following is a
list of some characteristics of good students. This list is a description of
what

1.
Successful
students attend class regularly. They are on time. They listen and train themselves
to pay attention. If they miss a session, they feel obligated to let the
instructor know why before class begins, if possible, and their excuses are legitimate
and reasonable. They make sure they get all missed assignments (by contacting

44. They don’t rationalize failure. While many are
talking about their age, their sore back, their lack of time, their poor
genetics, their ‘bad luck’, their nasty boss and their lack of
opportunities(all good reasons to fail), they are finding a way to succeed
despite all their challenges.
45. They have an off switch. They know how to relax,
enjoy what they have in their life and to have fun.
46. Their career is not identity, it’s their job. It’s
not who they are, it’s what they do.

in easy. While the majority look for the quickest, easiest way (their the
shortcut), they look for the course of action which will produce the best
results over the long term.

“It may make a
difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today.” –James Freeman
Clark
Look at Martin Luther King Jr. He was known
for his part in the Civil Rights Movement. He believed everyone should be
treated equally, with the same respect and rights. He died over 40 years and
today he is still known for the amazing individual he was.
CHOOS THE RIGHT :D
“Choosing the right at a baseball game.”
The video was about a kid who decided to give the
ball to a younger boy when he cached the ball. He was happy at first, but he
felt sad about it and did what he thought was right. Because the people around
him noticed what he did, he was given a baseball and free tickets to and other
baseball games. The message being brought was that if one chooses doing what’s
right, one will get some sort of satisfaction! J

“It’s not living that matters, but living rightly.”- Socrates
It does not matter how long you lived for, but what
matters is what you make of it. You can live up 70 years but why does that even
matter if half of it you were out committing crimes and the other half paying
the price in jail? I am most positive one would like to live up to 30 years and
doing all the right things, curing cancer and helping the needy, instead.

things that most wont. They become exceptional by choice. We’re all faced with
life- shaping decisions that most won’t and don’t.

“Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly”- Otto Graham, Jr
