You Will Go Far C

With CTR

always think before doing something.
choose the right, you hear it everywhere but what does it mean. For most people CTR means to do the right thing to choose the right decision and to never choose the wrong. CTR is a logo for a shield formed as a ring. The people who wore this ring with the logo “CTR” are the members of LDS church as a reminder to people who choose the right. A lot of people right now are choosing the wrong. For example a bank is getting robed or a man is smoking in front of his daughter or son. Maybe a teen is choosing the wrong and getting pregnant at a young age. A student is cheating on his test or not listening to his teacher or just out there in the world tagging or smoking weed. Some kids might get the habit of this because they have a older sister or brother that does all this, but if those big brothers or sisters teach them then the right then they won’t get into any problems. Like if two men are robbing a bank it leads them to years in prison. They all do it for money but instead of making it easier and just continued in school they would have gotten a very good job that pays well but no they want to do it the harder way and just make themselves go to prisons. If a man or women smokes in front of their son or daughter their not just putting their own lives at risk but also their kids life because they can get asthma or maybe something worse. For the teens they always choose the wrong by not respecting their parent or the elder. They just think they know how life is and how it will be to them but the reality is that life will not be good on them if they drop out of school and they think that just by getting a job that will change everything for them. If the want to live on their own they need to pay rent, gas, water, food, furniture, and much more so I say that people should choose the right and just continue with school and not make a mistake. CHOOSE THE RIGHT!


Choose
The
Right
Respect other people
Good record
Not make fun of anyone
Do good in school
Get good grades
Not do weed
Good future
Clean reputation -
Never disrespect the older people

"you will never regret doing whats right "
anon
I THINK THIS MEANS THAT IF YOU DO THE RIGHT YOU WONT REGRET IT DUT IF YOU DO THE WRONG YOU WILL REGREt it. for example if you always let your friend copy off of you and he or she gets the life you wanted. you will regret letting your friend copy off of you. so its always a good feeling when you choose the right.

Academic Success

Part 2

Laura B.’s Academic Success Story

In high school I was one of the good students who didn’t really have to study to be a good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get on the tests by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn’t that I didn’t try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never really had to put forth much an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In college however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concepts.

My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and I try to keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use the reading that I did not get to as an additional study aid. I take good notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball, its tough because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class because of volleyball I make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the material means.

"there is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience"
 
reflection: this quote means that your conscience will not follow you if you dont do something bad.that if you you choose the wrong your conscience will follow you until you do the right thing . for example if you call you mom a bad word your conscience wont stop reminding you of that day until you do the rigth thing.

I Will Persist Until I Succeed

Part 2

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: When receiving a bad grade. I just try to do better on the second exam and study harder. It’s hard when you have your first test in a class and have no idea what to expect. The second one is usually easier since you know what to expect from your teachers.

My strategies for written assignments: Start early and make sure that you have it proofread. Also, with written assignments, having a timeline planned out can help like by setting a certain number of pages done by a certain day before the paper is due

How I succeed in team projects: COMMUNICATION!  Despite your group synergy, communication is crucial. I remember I ran out of cell phone minutes constantly when working on a group project for my marketing research class. It’s really important that everyone is on the same page and getting the same emails. The worst is when two people are working on the same portion of the project and don’t even realize it.

I will persist until succeed

Part 1

Heather A.’s Academic Success story

In high school, I didn’t study as much in groups as I do in college. I feel I learned better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more important information than others.

My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others. My test study method: I have very different techniques. For financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power points and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and try to make diagrams to describe different processes.

My time management secret one of my biggest secrets is to look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test.

After some serious soul searching Kennedy decided she was made for a purpose to be successful and to fulfill who she was destined to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and mindset that I would not fail with god leading me”.

She says her first semester back was difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the student success program,” Kennedy said. “to my benefit Ms. gravely accepted me back. Because of me struggles and hard times, I seek a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-valued.

As Kennedy lay crumpled in her hospital bed following the accident, she realized that many of her wounds were invisible. ‘’after the car accident, I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said. “ For years, I allowed someone I loved to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”

She had previously tried taking a few DCCC classes, but said she was immature and not ready for academic challenge. She dropped out. After the accident, she returned to DCCC to take cosmetology classes. she left school a second time and began working as a certified nursing assistant. After yet another car accident, she felt unstable, hopeless, and didn’t know what to do.

Chris Mishak, who earned a degree in Medical Laboratory Technology from DCCC in 1998, is the second MLT graduate from DCCC to be accepted into physical assistants school. In August 2011, Mishak will begin studying at Emory University in Atlanta to become a physicians assistant. he says DCCC prepared him well to transfer to Winston-Salem State University, where he earned his undergraduate degree in clinical laboratory science in 2004. since then, he worked in the lab at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

“I learned pretty much everything that I needed to know about laboratory science at DCCC. Many of the clinical applications that o learned there I  still use today either in my medical volunteering phlebotomy or in the duties of my current job, which includes training new technologists on cell identification,” said Mishak.

It is pretty easy to be successful in school. If students need to do is study, put in the time; its as simple as that habit later on. Therefore I suggest that students work hard in their studies and at being good people, doing nothing to get them in trouble during high school. By doing so, they will enjoy success during high school and throughout their life time.

Andrea Packer anticipates graduating with a B.A in education from Catawba in December 2011 and then enrolling in the Master of Arts in teaching program from Salem College also offered on the Davidson Campus. Packer spends her days on the Davidson Campus working 29 hours a week as a teaching assistant for instructors in the DCCC early childhood education program.

“Not only di receiving this scholarship makes me study harder and be the best I could be, but it also allowed me to graduate in my 2010 with my associate degree, and I was debt free. What a wonderful blessing!”

If students work hard during high school, complete all assignments on time, and demonstrate a bright, positive attitude towards school, learning and other people, then they can be highly successful as a high school student and qualify for academic scholarship also. all they need to do is put in the time study time. All the hard work and effort during  high school will definitely pay off.

Andrea Packer- without the prestigious DCCCP Presidential Scholarship she won in 2008, Andrea Packer, a 2010 DCCC honor graduate, says she doubts she would already be pursuing her baccalaureate degree from Catawba College. “I cannot say thank you enough to whomever paid for my education, and I am going to continue to do my best to make them happy that they invested in me,” she said. Since august  2010, Packer, 20, has been working toward her bachelor’s degree in early childhood education from Catawba College, and she likes the convenience of leaving her teaching assistant’s job in one DCCC building and walking only step to her evening Catawba classes where she is taking history,  statistics and education courses.

·         Many people avoid making decisions their whole lives so their decisive faculty of mind the faculty of discrimination becomes rusty and dies. Such people become totally dependent on others. When we study the four functions of the mind buddhi, the faculty of decisiveness; ego, the principle of identity; chitta, the storehouse of impressions; and manas, the importer and exporter of sensations and experience then we become aware of the power of the will. Will power  is that something within us that comes forward and says, “do this. It will be helpful for you.” Training the internal functions helps us to understand the decisive faculty of the mind, without which we cannot be successful.

·         Watch what you do on a daily basis. We become what we do and think about. If you think about nothing you will become nothing. If you think about being a great student you will become a great student. If you think about being honest you will be honest. The activities and thoughts that fill your day are keys to living successfully in school and throughout your adult life.

How to Always succeed in school

Part 7

 

·         Students know they should learn to decide on time, but they don’t do it. They always say, “Well, I knew it. I understood the key, but I did not act in time”. Though they may think correctly, and accurately understand the situation properly, they suddenly lose confidence. This is a world of competition; someone else is always trying to attain the same thing we are. So if we do not decide on time, someone else will attain what we want. Time is valuable in the external world. A tender bamboo can be easily bend but if we try to bend a mature bamboo, it will break. That which we have to do today, we should not postpone for tomorrow but we should also not make decisions in haste. We may have a setback if we make a wrong decision but our mistakes will teach us.

·         We must learn from the successes and mistake of others. When we see another student succeeding greatly and honorably learn how they do it and pattern your see other students falling miserably, learn how they do it an AVOID doing what they do or else you will join them in the failure’s club.

·         Make the most of your time and opportunities while at school. Don’t waist valuable time.

“You will never regret doing the right thing”

Anon

I think this quote means that you will regret something that you have done badly. That you won’t regret doing something right. For example if you see some old lady that needs help you will regret not helping her but you will feel good if you do help her.

It feels nice to do something that is right and not wrong.

Read. You can read whatever you want: sports illustrated, jet, the New York Times, comic books, the Holly bible, your cheerios box, online blogs or web articles… whatever! Reading increases your brainpower.

·         Look up words you don’t understand in the dictionary.

·         Read assignment questions first to help you identify key points.

·         Read out loud with your friends, classmates or parents.

·         Read with a purpose.

·         Take a speed-reading course if you desire

·         Take notes while reading

·         When possible, read from your own books and materials; this way, you can mark, highlight, cross reference, write notes in the margins, etc. If the book belongs to someone else or the library, you can’t do this.

·         Read religious literature

·         Read from the internet

·         Read daily. Set a goal to read a book at least each month. Then a book a week.
