Student Success Statement 31

Student Success Statement
“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”
-Henry David Thoreau

What I think this quote means is that choosing the right is the only thing that pays up at the end. When you do something good there is always a reward. It doesn't mean we should do good stuff and wait for a reward. We do good stuff becuase that makes us happy.

Successful Student 10

10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learn that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in good control of their life.

An elemental truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or followers others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skills program for college students. It ultimately causes many students to become non-students. Procrastinators are good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!
The 10 items listed above are paraphrased from an article by Larry M Ludewig called the Ten Commandments for effective study skills which appeared in The Teaching Professor, December, 1992.
