Student Success Statement

“Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, and fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind.”

-B.C Forbes

Reflection:

What I think that they are trying to say is that maybe if you are an honest person it will show in you r character and it would show that you are a good character to yourself and other people. It also shows that you know how to control your mind and to have it at peace and truthful.

Honesty

9 of 10

Honesty is always the best policy. Employers need to know that they can trust you with everything from company credit cards to trade every day that you do your own homework and resist the temptation to cheat on exams.

Student Success Statement

“Stop worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what’s happening right this moment.”

-Phil Jackson

Reflection:

What I think that they are trying to say is that that you have to live life and not worry about the little things like if you’re going to win or lose you have to just live in the moment and have fun and think of the great things that can happen if you just don’t worry about the things that are not that important, at least you tried.

Time Management

8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time-classes, homework and activates-with some family help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs require multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting new ones, respond to e-mails while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrow’s produce while planning next week’s menu.

Someone said, “Wherever you are, be there.” Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here and there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment, so you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.
