Student Responsibility

Part 3

 

What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestones in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost, of course, if others appreciate what you have done too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen your self-belief, and reinforce your determination to succeed.

Some of the keys characteristics you will find in those who are successful and perseverance, prepared to research, plan and work hard, practice a lot even when things so not seem to be going well, and an ability to recover and learn from setbacks, at the outside of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievements targets can all play in an important role.

If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, than do not despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use medications and visualization techniques to indicate your vision, and they can certainly be learnt both of that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goals. Setting goals and objectives can be a personal or business technique that can be learnt. You cans develop inner strength of succeed if you apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from setbacks more easily.

Students: these are YOUR responsibilities!

7. Successful students understand the actions affect learning. Successful students know their personal behavior affect their feelings and emotions that in the turn can affect learning.

     If you can act in a certain way that most normally produce particular feelings, you will begin to experience those feelings. Act like you’re bored, and you’ll become bored. Act like you’re disinterested. You will become disinterested. So the next time you have trouble concentrating in the class room, “act” like an interested person: lean forward, maintain eye contact with the professor, nod occasionally, take notes, and ask questions. Not only will you benefit from your actions, your classmates and professor may also get more exited and enthusiastic.

8. Successful students talk about what there’re learning. Successful students get to know something well enough that they can put into words. Talking about something with friends or classmates, is not only good for checking whether or not you know transferring ideas into words provides the most direct path for moving knowledge from short term to long term memory. You really don’t. “Know” material until you can   put into words.  So next time you study, don’t do it silently. Talk about notes problems reading etc. with friends, recite to a char, organize an oral study group, and pretend you’re teaching your peers. “Talk learning produces” a whole host of memory traces that result more learning.

4. Successful students learn that a student and a teacher make a team. Most teachers want exactly what you want: they would like for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grade.

Successful students reflect well on efforts of any teacher; if you have learned your material, the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not an enemy, and you share the same interest, the same goal –in short, your teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players on the team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success.

Neither wishes to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player

5. Successful students don’t sit in the back. Successful students minimize classroom distractions that interfere learning, students want the best seat available for their entertainment dollars, but willingly seek the worse seat for their entertainment dollars. Students who sit in the back cannot possibly be their teachers team mate (see no. 4). Why do they expose themselves to the temptations of inactive classroom experiences and distractions of all the people between them and the instructor? Of course? We know they choose the back of the classroom because….

Successful students exhibit a combination of successful attitudes and behaviors as well as intellectual capacity. Successful students

1.Successful students are responsible and active. Successful students get involved in their studies, accept responsibility for their own education, and are active participants in it!

Responsibility means control. It’s the difference between leading and being led. Your own efforts control your grade, you earn the glory or deserve the blame. You make the choice. Active classroom participation improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored, daydream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, questions and take notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either option cost one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of additional work outside of class to achieve the same degree of learning the latter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.

 

2.Successful students have educational goals. Successful students have legitimate goals and are motivated by what they represent in terms of career aspirations and life’s desires. Ask yourself these questions: What am I doing here? Why have I chosen to be sitting here now? Is there some better place I could be? What does my presence here mean to me? Answers to these questions represent your “Hot Buttons” and are, without a doubt, the most important factors in your success as a college student. If your educational goals….

 Characteristics of   a                           Successful                

                 Student

http://academic.cuesta.edu/acasupp/as/201.HTM

Many students do not know what it takes to be successful in the educational environment. They understand good and bad grades in a general way, and they sense that they should attend classes, but that is where their knowledge begins and ends.

Most instructors know what a good student is-and is not. For one thing, a good student is not necessarily the most intelligent individual in the class.

The following is a list of some characteristics of good students. This list is a description of what a hard-working student does and what a teacher likes to see. By learning these characteristics, you may better understand that day to day and class to class behavior of successful students. The idea is to provide you with guidelines you can follow which will help you get down to the business of becoming a serious, successful student.

1.Successful students attend classes regularly. They are on time. They listen and train themselves to pay attention. If they miss a session, they feel obligated to let the instructor know why before class begins, if possible, and their excuses are legitimate and reasonable. They make sure they get all missed assignments (by contacting the teacher).

45. They have an off switch. They know how to relax, enjoy what they have in their life and to have fun.

46. Their career is not their identity, it’s their job. It’s not who they are, it’s what they do.

47. They are more interested in effective than they are in easy. While the majority look for the quickest, easiest way (the short cut), they look for the course of action which will produce the best result over the long time.

22. While many people are reactive, they are proactive. They take action before they have to.

24. They are good communicators and they consciously work at it.

25. They have a plan for their life and they work methodically at turning that plan into a reality. Their life is not a clumsy series of unplanned events and outcomes.

26. Their desire to be exceptional means that they typically do things that most won’t. They become exceptional by choice. We’re all faced with life-shaping decisions almost daily. Successful people make the decisions that most won’t and don’t.

27. While most people are pleasure junkies and avoid pain and pain and discomfort at all coast, successful people understand the values and benefits of working through the tough stuff that most would avoid.

28.   They have identified their core values (what is important to them) and they do their best to live a life which is reflective of those values.

29. They have balance. While they may be financially successful, they know that the terms money and success are interchangeable. They understand that people who are successful on a financial level only, are not successful at all. Unfortunately we live in a society which teaches that money equals success. Like many other things, money is a tool. It’s certainly not a bad thing but ultimately; it’s just another resource. Unfortunately, too many people warship it.

                           Keys to Successful Living       

                                          Part 4

                                          (Anon)

What is personality? The word “Personality” comes from the root persona, which means “mask”. Our personality is a mask that we wear. We don’t have to wear a mask when we are by ourselves; we wear a mask to express ourselves to others. Our personality is a character, and that character is composed of certain habits. Each of us has numerous habits; so when we want to understand our personality, we should understand our habit pattern. A habit pattern is a conscious thought or action that one repeats again and again. This creates a groove in the unconscious mind and forms an unconscious habit. Unconscious habits are stronger than conscious habits. All habit patterns are self-created. When we sit down and try to understand which of our habits control our life, we see that there are many deep-rooted habits within us.

Choose habits that will mold you’re your personality into a super successful student and person. Successful people are happier because they are fulfilling the measure of their creation, doing what they were born to do, and that is to win honorably. Choosing the right will make you a …

We should understand our capacities and potentials, and then we should express ourselves in the external world with full confidence, acting without any reservations. Thus that are three steps in performing an action: first, forming an opinion within ourselves; second, expressing our opinion to others; and third, executing our opinion in action.

Understanding habit patterns

The main thing that one should learn in life - - and it is not taught in the home or in the schools - - is self-analysis. We should learn to analyze ourselves. If we really want to understand ourselves, we can analyze our personality by understanding our habit patterns. This is not difficult. We should simply try to be consciously aware of every action we perform and realize that our actions are virtually our thoughts. Without thoughts there can be no actions. Habits pattern and thoughts are revealed through behavior. There is a branch of psychology called behaviorism that is based on this concept.
