Student Success Statement/ Reflection

Student Success Statement

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

-B.C. Forbes

Reflection

It is so self-beneficial if one keeps honest. Not only are you being honest to the people around you but to yourself. Being honest is right and fair and that is what keeps peace. It takes character to be honest and it is not easy. When one is truly honest not only are they avoiding bad consequences but are aiming to doing what is right.

Honesty is always the best policy. Employers need to know that they can trust you with everything from company credit cards to trade secrets. How can you work at honesty? You demonstrate integrity 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

We can’t swell on the future and keep wondering what will happen because we have to focus and what we are doing now. Whatever it is we do right now determine our future, dwelling on the future does not get us there. It is the hard work and concentration that does. I definitely agree with Phil Jackson. A good example would be I. I hope to go to UCLA and I am constantly questioning whether I will get accepted or not. I keep worrying but then I realize that worrying about it won’t get me into UCLA, I should be concentrating on school and what I have to do right now, and that will determine whether I get into UCLA or not.

Time Managing 8 of 10

Time Management

8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time – classes, homework and activities – 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 at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.
