Student Success Statement

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

-Peter F. Drucker

What I think this quote means is that we have to choose what is right or we shall pay our consequences for not doing so. For example if we do something wrong rather than right we will get in trouble.

Student Success Statement

“To see what is right and not to do it is the want of courage.”

-Confucius 

What I think this quote means is that you are a coward when you don’t do what is right. There is no other explanation for doing what is wrong when you can be choosing the right.

Student Success Statement 59

Student Success Statement

“The right way isn’t always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character.”

-Margaret Chase Smith

What I think this quote means is that even if others are persuading you to do what is wrong you must choose the right. When you do so you are telling others that you are worthy and honorable.

Student Success Statement 55

Student Success Statement

“The first law of success…. Is concentration; to bend all the energies to one point, and go directly to that point, looking neither to the right nor the left.”

-William Matthews

What I think this quote means is that we should concentrate in doing what’s good. An example is school. If you concentrate on being popular or on your friends more than learning you on concentrating on doing what is not right. You have to concentrate on your studies so that you have a successful future.
 

Student Success Statement 51

Student Success Statement

“Every time I’ve done something that doesn’t feel right, it ends up not being right.”

-Mario Cuomo (52^nd governor of NY)

What I think this quote means is that you have an instinct in you that warns you if you’re about to do something wrong. You should trust that instinct and do what is right instead. We should always choose the right!

Tips 1-2

To succeed in high school and college, you have to do your best at all times. But sometimes it’s hardtop stay motivated, even when you really care about the work you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.

1. Focus on High-Impact Activities

The key to success in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall picture of your workload before you start to tackle any of it. Then, make a plan. Although it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first, those that take more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones you’ll learn the most from.

To determine what your priorities are, rank your assignments in the order of their importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on your course work and grades. For example, even though all homework assignments are important, studying for a midterm exam takes priority over writing a paragraph for English class. As you complete each task, think of it as another step on your way to college success.

2. Create New Challenges

Changing your approach can help you stay interested in what you’re doing. If you’ve been given an assignment similar to the one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a different way. If you wrote an essay for a creative writing assignment last year try a poem this time. For book reports, pick a history book instead another biography.
