Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students
Part 11
Whether studying or in
general life, planning is an imperative skill, Here, we must strictly set the
hours studying, and should promote regularity in doing so. Don’t pay off your
studies to the last moment (just before the test), because in that moment you
will be feeling stress and pressure, and both factors will prove disturbing for
your learning; that’s the high price of procrastination. During the exam, it’s
important to forget about panic and stress. And if you are planning for your
thesis, you may find this post useful. Other planning tip I frequently give is
that, when you are assigned a homework, try to solve it as quickly as possible.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students
Part 10
They prefer tasks with some degree of difficulty and novelty, which
stimulate their learning skills.
They don’t apply the simple criteria of successful to their
learning. Remember, they are focused into learning process.
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 self-concrete, realistic goals. After reading any text we have
to ask several different questions related to its content, in order to verify
if we have completely understood the text, It’s 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 students.
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 I s more important. A
result is a very brief moment in life, while learning to develop process 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 consult experts and teachers frequently.
This action provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

The body is
related to the breath is related to mind .the body
breath senses and mind all function together
as a unit .so life virtually means relationship and
thus the art of living and
being requires an
understanding of one relationship
to the external world
and the relationship within
oneself . all human beings have inner potentials and do not know how to use them
to have a successful life .those who are not happy internally can never make
others happy . those do not
love themselves can never love others .

“Regard your
good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of ‘’
Socrates
One should
and must have some pride of their name and who they are. Each and every one of
us has been given the right of a name, which tells others who we are, where we
come from and what we represent. If one isn’t proud of themselves or their
name, how can we expect others to be proud of us?

some kind of pocket work and make use of wasted spare minutes by reciting
And thinking
about what you are learning.
10: learn something
new or difficult in you strongest intelligence sense or in your dominant hemisphere.
Reinforce it with as many different ways as possible
11: find a
study partner or two on each class and routinely take turns teaching other the
material
12: prepare for each class as if there will be a
pop quiz. The single most important way to prepare for a test is to students many
days in advance. Study each day to
prepare for a test that is coming in a few days or weeks. When you are prepared
you will do great on the test and you will be confident.

How Successful Student Prepare for Test
Part
Are you really doing everything?
You can to prepare for test re-reading the
chapter and looking over your notes is notes are 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 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
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 finals 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 mornings, and they probably don’t feel good sitting in class, either.
Good food and little exercise will clear your head!
Students who eat junk in
moderation (you really don’t have to cut it out completely) and work out in
some way are more likely to participate in sports. That means they have more
balance in their lives, feel 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 your suggestions.

Student Success Statement
“Your
name is a diamond: make sure it shines”
-Sergio
Tovallin
I really enjoy this statement. It makes me want to do
things so that people could know my name. The quote “Your name is a diamond:
make sure it shines” means that you should do good things, so that when people
see your name they know who you are and what you did. This also means that your
name will shine to other people and they will know that you chose the right and
you will be lucky enough to have a clean name.

“C” Student
Part

6. EFFFOR: “C” Students are capable of
sufficient effort, but either fail to realistically evaluate the effort needed
to accomplish a task successfully, or lack the desire to meet the challenge.
They put forth very little effort. They don’t realize that they will be
rewarded according the amount of effort they put into a project. Little effort=bad
results.
7. COMMUNICATIONS: “C” students communicate
in ways that often limit comprehension or risk misinterpretation. Ideas are not
well formulated believe they are expressed. Poor listening/reading habits
inhibit matching inquiry and response.
8. RESULTS: “C” students obtain mediocre or
inconsistent results on tests. They have some concept of what is going on but
clearly have not mastered the material.

1. ATTENDANCE:”C” student
are often late and miss class frequently. They put other priorities ahead of
academic work. In some classes, their health or constant fatigue readers them
physically unable to keep up with the demands of high-level performance. They
think it is “cool” to be tardy because it makes them think they are big shots. Skipping
class is another downfall for the “C” and failing students.
2. PREPARATION: “C”
students may prepare their assignments consistently, but often in a perfunctory
manner. Their work may be sloppy or careless. At times, it is incomplete or
late. They postpone doing any home assignments in order to text friends, visit
friends on Facebook, or send tweets to some of their followers. They take
short-sighed because they can’t see the long range destruction of taking
shortcuts. It will never pay off. Choose the Right
