Student Success Statement

“Take Care of yourself and everything else will fall into place.”

Coach David Diamont

Reflection: I agree with this statement because if you take care of yourself everything will fall into it’s place. There are many examples that people can have that lead to being in it’s place like having a disease. There are many ways that you can take care of yourself but there are stubborn people that don’t think they would make it through everything and just thinks negative all the time. As long as you take care of yourself everything will be fine.

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 by 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 desired goals, that of being a star student, a champion of doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding, and you’re 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.
