Student Success Statement

“Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind”

-B.C. Forbes

Reflection:

I think that this statement is trying to say that people need to be really careful with what they do and say. Sometimes people think that is they are dishonest it won’t really do any damage on anybody because when someone is dishonest it is just not being truthful. Sometimes if people are dishonest, they are always telling little white lies. If you keep on saying little white lies, they will become much

Honesty is always the best policy. Employers need to know that they can trust you with everything from company credit cards to trade secrets. How can you work at honesty? You demonstrate integrity every day that you do your own homework and resist the temptation to cheat on exams.

Student Success Statement 

"Stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what's happening right this moment."

-Phil Jackson

Reflection:

I think that this statement is trying to say that you shouldn't worry about the future. You should worry about the present because the future is not what you are living right this moment. The future  will come only if you worry about what you are doing right this moment. Sometimes what people do is that they only worry about the future and what will the future be like, but they can only find out about the future if they worry about the present.

Time Management

Time Management

8 of 10Masters the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time —classes, homework and activities— with some family help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs require multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting new ones, respond to e-mails while working on major presentations, or order tomorrow’s produce while planning next week’s menu.

Someone said, “Wherever you are, be there.”  Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here and there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.
