 7 Habits of highly Successful Teens

By Sean Covey

For teens is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And being the parent of a teenager isn’t any walk in the park, either. In this book, the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, author Sean Covey attempts to provide “a compass to help teens and their parents navigate the problems they encounter daily.”

How will they deal with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack thereof? The life of a teenager is full of tough issues and life changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help them to reach their goals and live a successful life.

While it’s all well and good to tell kids how to live their lives, “teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say,” Covey says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential.

Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen Covey, Wrote the book The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies. Sean’s a chip off the block, and no slacker. His own book has rung in more than respectable 2 million copies sold. Here are his seven habits, and some ideas for helping your teen understand and apply them;

Work together  . There are a number of ways that you can ensure you get the most out of your education experience. First, participate fully. Engage regularly in discussion and be willing to share your personal profession and educational experience. You can get to know your classmates through the dialogue that is created in a course environment-sometimes even better than in face-to-face class. And the same goes for your instructor. Be sure to contact your professor-especially if you are having problems .He/she is still your instructor and will be there to guide and assist you as needed.

"it's not WHERE you live but HOW you live that counts. it's not where you play the game but HOW you game that counts"

Mr. haymore

Playing at a certain place doesnt change you from playing better or worse, if you have talent you will play your best wherever you go. Its how you make it happen. Never blame others for your mistakes or flaws.

A successful student…

…takes responsibility for his/her own learning

Online learning can be powerful, stimulating, engaging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most-if not all- of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore, requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you’re willing to invest in the experience- this is particularly true in the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self- motivation are all key qualities to ensuring success in an online course!

…is comfortable and confident with written communication

 Reading and writing are the basis of most online courses, so it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain modules that include videos or other activities,

activities, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an online course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you.

…is willing to be a member of an online community.

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.” –Henry David Thoreau

Being good is a lifetime virtue. It is how people know you. You might not have any money or you might be in bankrupt but if people know you and they know what kind of person you are, they’ll support and help/ And just because you were loyal all this time.

part 10

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

An element truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! Its your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably no.1 study skills problem 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!
