Student Success Statement

“Truth is the only safe ground to stand up on.”

-Elisabeth Cady Stanton

Reflection: I think this quote means if you know what you want to do in the future you have to stick to it to have a safe ground. While you know what you what to do in the future you can achieve anything. as an example you cant let anything bring you down from what you want to become, so just do you and worry about nobody else.

Attention Detail

7 of 10

When you double check your calculations for math problems or cite source carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any work place, whether you’re maintaining a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write email.

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

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

Student Success Statement

“Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.”

-Peter F. Drucker

Reflection: I think this quote means to what you know you can do rather than do what you want to do. Like on a project you want to put the best work in the project so you could get the best results rather than do a project with the work that you know should be in there.

Initiative
5 of 10

Initiative is creating, 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-relentless. Self-relentless people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required and do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Success in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.

Student Success Statement

“To be great—concentrate.”

Orson sweet Mardin

Reflection: I think this quote means you have to concentrate on whatever you are going and you have to want it as well.


Problem-solving skill

4 of 10

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

Speaking skills

2 of 10

When you’re assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing it as an unimportant part of your education. Employers look for speaking skills in job applicants, who may have to give presentations to clients or represent their organization in the field. It’s never too soon to practice good eye contact and other public speaking techniques.

http://www.newswiretoday.com/news/17334/

According to The Book of Lists, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in the minds of the majority people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Wiener noted author and public speaker wants to help people overcome that fear.

“The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said Dr. Michael Telch of the Laboratory for the Study of Anxiety Disorders (LSAD) in the Department of Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. “People have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped classes because of it.”

Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon your ability to communicate effectively! Whether you’re running a meeting, selling a product, making a presentation, motivating co-workers, or just communicating one-on-one
with others, you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.

“The man who has no imagination has no wings.”

-Muhammad Ali  

Reflection: I think this quote means if you don’t think of what you can do then with wont come true without the imagination you need. If you don’t try you won’t get anywhere so you have to think of what could happen to you if you do try, and what the best for you will be if you actually put effort and dedication to what you want to accomplish your goals.

Student Success Statement

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘press on’ has solved and always will solve the problem of the human race.”

-Calvin Coolidge, 30 president of the United States

Reflection: I think his quote means a lot of the time you have to persist in order to do what is right in the world. SO is just not you doing whats right, but other’s see what you do for your own benefit, and how much effort you put in your daily life so you can be achieving.


Writing skills

1of 10

Communication is at the top of the list of skills that employers look for. And communication in the workplace often means writing.

Health professionals keep patents charts, researchers depend on the money they collect by writing grant applications, software engineers write technical specification, and nearly every one writes e-mail to people inside and outside their organization. And before you even get the chance to interview for a job, you'll need to present yourself in cover letters and resumes.

So by taking writing serious and doing your best on every research paper, every lab report you write, every post you write on your blog site, and every writing activity you engage in, you’re preparing yourself for a good career.
