“Truth is the only safe ground to stand upon.”

Elizabeth cady staton

Truth is like the floor, you can stand there and it won’t fall off. Lies can also be floors, they are the type that if stood for so long, it will rumble down making you fall.

Attention to Detail

7 of 10

when you double-check your calculations for a math problem or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace whether you maintain a database keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.

John wooden, Ucla’s former great basketball coach who lead his teams to ten consecutive national championship was asked what he attributed his success to among a number of things he mentioned that paying attention to details was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.

Details may be small things but from small things come great things; therefore pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

Cool Under Pressure

6 to 10

 Very few students enjoy taking test. Yet functioning well under pressure is crucial to your future success. Try thinking of the pressure of testing as practice for the work world’s own explosive situations. Yet could someday find yourself meeting tight deadlines speaking with irate customers wielding a scalpel or handling dangerous chemicals.

The best way to curtail pressure and to even eliminate it is to prepare. Applying the motto “be prepared” holds true first time and every time. Prepare for the test and you won’t worry about it in fact it will be your chance to shine to reveal the hard work you have put into preparing for the test. You will be rewarded for the effort you have thrust into your studies. Preparation removes fear. When you are prepared you will not fear. Preparation helps you maintain your cool under pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm; therefore prepare and your coolness under pressure is sure to abound.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT

Reflection: We should start what is right because sometimes, the wrong is acceptable. Never choose the wrong. Choosing the right always has to come first, because what if accepting the wrong.  

Initiative 5 of 10

Initiative

5 of 10

Initiative is creativity, inventiveness, originality, ingenuity, imagination. Every time you respond in class, every time you choose your own research topic, every time you put together your own interpretation of a piece of literature, you take initiative. And future employers value can-do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own course through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant people are the self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do and do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.

Problem Solving Skills

4 of 10

Problem solving goes far beyond your math textbook. Every assignment is an opportunity to weigh all possible solutions carefully and choose the one you think is best. As a working professional, you'll be solving problems regularly, whether it's fixing a bug in a computer program or overcoming budget shortfalls. Problem solving situations occur extensively and frequently, therefore, be ready when then come.
When problems or challenges occur, some people look them at negative experiences, as a crisis. These people are the ones who live day by day with gloom and negativism in their attitudes. But the really successful people, those who are cheerful and optimistic, are those who look at problems as opportunities, opportunities to learn, grow, expand their horizons, and make new discoveries. They look on the bright side of things and live happy lives.

Speaking Skills

2 of 10

When you’re assigned a class it as an unimportant part of your education. Employers look for speaking skills in job applicants who may have to give presentations to clients or represent their organization in the field. It’s never too soon to practice good eye contact and other public speaking techniques.

http://www.newswiretoday.com/news/17334/

According to the Book of lists, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in the minds of the majority of people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker wants to help people overcome that fear.

“The Biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it.” Said Dr. Michael Telch of the Laboratory for the study of anxiety disorders (LSAD) in the Department of Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. “People have had to turn down jobs and certainly students have dropped classes because of it.” Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon your ability to communicate effectively whether you’re running a meeting selling a product making a presentation motivating co-working or just communicating one-on-one with others you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively smoothly and intelligently.

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘press on’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

there is many talented people in this world. There are many people that aren't so talented; they yet work hard to achieve their planned goals.

Finally, look beyond the article for more clues.

·         Read the website’s home page and the about us page. Look for a mission statement to learn more about the site, its purpose and the organization sponsoring it.

·         If there is an author listed look for a biography that discusses the author’s education profession and other relevant background. If there is no bio on the site search for one elsewhere on the web.

·         Check the date. Facts can change over time so see if the site shows when it was last updated.

·         Presentation counts; look at everything from design to spelling. A clean well-organized site shows a certain degree of professionalism.

Read Between the lines

Make a judgment about the site reliability based on your own analysis of the site and the information it contains. Here are some ways to do this:

·        Look for facts you know or can check with trusted sources. If the site gets those facts right it’s more likely that the other facts on the site are also accurate.

·        Study the language used. Is it angry satiric or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site is biased.

·        Consider whether the arguments are logical and backed up by evidence and whether the site presents only one point of view.

·        Check the links to the sources that the author acknowledges. Scholarly writing whether in print or online should include a bibliography.
