“truth is the only safe ground to stand upon.”

Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Reflection: I agree with this statement because truth will bring good things to you. When you are not on the ground of truth then you are not being honest with yourself or anyone around you. And that will only bring bad consequences your way.

Attention to Detail 7 of 10

Attention to Detail

7 of 10

When you double-check your calculations for a math problem or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.

John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who led his teams to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that paying attention was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly he would teach them how.

Details may be small things but form small things come great things; therefore , pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

“Everyone is the architect of their own learning.”

Claudius

Reflection: I agree with this statement because no one else can learn for you besides yourself. You build your own learning therefore you are the architect of your own knowledge. Only you can build your knowledge because it all depends on whether or not you choose to learn. All the things you know are because you chose to learn them instead of ignoring them and not know anything.

Cool Under Pressure 6 of 10

Cool Under Pressure

6 of 10

Very few students enjoy taking tests. Yet functioning well under pressure is crucial to your future success. Try thinking of the pressure of testing as practice for the work world’s own explosive situations. You could someday find yourself meeting tight deadlines, speaking with irate customers, wielding a scalpel or handling dangerous chemicals.

The best way to crucial pressure and even eliminate it is to prepare. Applying the motto “Be Prepared” holds true first time and every time. Prepare for that test and you won’t worry about it. In fact, it will be your chance to shine, to reveal the hard work you have put into preparing the test. You will be rewarded for the effort you have thrust into your studies. Preparation removes fear. When you are prepared, you will not fear. Preparation helps you maintain your cool under pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm: therefore prepare and your coolness under pressure is sure to abound.

Initiative

5 of 10

Initiative is creativity, inventiveness, originality, ingenuity, imagination. Every time you respond in class, every time you choose your own research topic, every time you put together your own interpretation of a piece of literature, you take initiative. And future employers value can-do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own course through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do and do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.

“To be great—concentrate.”

Orson Sweet Mardin

Reflection: I agree with this statement because you can’t be great and accomplish all your goals if you don’t concentrate on them. When you concentrate on your goals you can actually achieve them so you can get on step higher to reaching the life of your dreams. If you don’t concentrate then you are just doing a sloppy job in accomplishing what you want but as long as you do concentrate you  can do anything to get what you need and want in life.

Problem –Solving Skills 4 of 10

Problem –Solving Skills

Problem solving goes far beyond your math textbook. Every assignment is an opportunity to weigh all possible solutions carefully and choose the one you think is best. As a working professional, you’ll be solving problems regularly, whether it’s fixing a bug in a computer program or overcoming budget shortfalls. Problem solving situations occur extensively and frequently; therefore, be ready when then come.

When problems or challenges occur, some people look at them at negative experiences, as a crisis. These people are the ones who live day by day with gloom and negativism in their attitudes. But the really successful people, those who are cheerful and optimistic, are those who look at problems as opportunities to learn, grow, expand their horizons, and make new discoveries. They look on the bright side of things and live happy lives.
