Part 4 

Getting the most Out of a Session

Here are some tips to help your group get the most out of each study session:

·      

   Decide what you’re going to do in advanced.

·       Prepare the session, so you can make the most of your time together.

·       Take turns teaching to reinforce your own knowledge.

·       Stick to the session topic.

By supplementing your individuals study with a study group, you can reinforce what you’ve learned, deepen your understanding of complex concepts, and maybe even make a few new friends. Remember that a friend is a person who encourages you to do your best and to achieve on q high level, one who pushes you to try a little harder and to be a little better. If someone pulls you down the wrong trails of life, them those people are not friends, (they are actually your enemies), and you must avoid them at all coast. Whoever said learning can be fun? Learning is enjoyable and exciting when you study with others.

Habit 6: Synergize

Synergize is achieved 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 differences and better appreciate others. Synergize 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. Synergize doesn't just happed. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is: Learning to celebrate differences.

A good back is a greater example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, its all of the together that makes up the “sound”.  Each brand member brings his or her strength to the table to create something better than each could alone. No instrument is more important than another, just different.
