Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students

Part 13

If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, then do not despair. Each of them can be accomplished your own application. You can use meditation and visualization techniques to initiate your vision, and they can certainly be learned both for that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goals. Simply visualize your desire goals, that of being a star student, a champion of doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding, and your dreams and vision will materialize as you pursue these objectives. Setting goals and objectives can be a personal or business technique that can be learnt. You can develop inner strength to succeed if you apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from setbacks more easily.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students

Part 12

What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestones in your ambition, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost; of course, if others appreciate yourself will strengthen your self belief, and reinforce your determination to succeed. Some 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 of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievable targets can all play an important role.

be wise- never use drugs or alcohol


 

be wise- never use drugs or alcohol 

 

People who use drugs usually get addicted to it also with alcohol. Drug problems among you Americans are more common than you might think. There are an estimated1.5 million Americans, age 12 and older that use cocaine. Drug related deaths remain near historic highs. There are many ways you can tell when someone you care about has a problem with drugs or alcohoIncreased interest in alcohol or other drugs

Owning drug paraphernalia such as pipes, hypodermic needles, or rolling papers.

Having large amounts of cash or always being low on cash.

Drastic increase or decrease in weight.

Sometimes slurred or incoherent speech.

Withdrawal from others, frequent lying, depression or paranoia. Some people drink to let their anger out but then they get addicted to it. Some kids if they do drugs there eyes turn red and they turn all hipper. This can lead kids to a bad future. For example if you see a kid that’s 11 or 13 the might have a cigarette in their hand but they think it makes them look cool. It really doesn’t it makes them look like if they weren’t raised right. Or if they talk about it them saying that they tried it and that they won’t get addictive to it but they do and that will mess up their life. Confronting a friend about drugs is not easy. They may get very angry at you. Although only your friend can decide to quit using drugs, your concern may help them make that decision. Let your friend know that you care for them and will help them in anything. If you’re confronting a friend about their problem already know what and how you will tell them. Use a calm voice and do not get in an argument with them.

Whether studying or in general life, planning is an imperative skill. Here, we must strictly set the hours for studying, and should promote regularity in doing so. Don’t put 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, several days before  the required date, but don’t try to complete it perfectly and don’t submit it immediately. I always recommended doing homework early, but deliver it at the last possible day.
