If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, then do not despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use meditation and visualization techniques to initiate your vision, and they can certainly be learned both for that purpose and for each step you take to reach your goals. Simply visualize your desired goals, that of being a star student, a champion of doing what is right, and see yourself working hard to become outstanding and you’re your dreams and vision will materialize as you pursue these objectives. Setting goals and objectives can be a personal or business technique that can be learned. You can develop inner strength to succeed if you apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from setbacks more easily.

Be Wise-Never Use Drugs or Alcohol

To be a successful person you don’t need drugs or alcohol, it will just hold you back. In order to be wise you have to stay away from things that will stop you from reaching your dreams. Everyday day there is someone dying from drug or alcohol use and it’s sad to see that happen because without it, he or she could have made something of their life. Some might think its ok to use it occasionally, but they end up doing it every day and could lead to death. At first it might feel really good to use it, but in reality it’s killing your body slowly and you don’t even know it. Even though it’s killing you, most likely it’s killing your family members as well too. Think about it, their slowly watching you kill yourself and that’s killing them as well. By using drugs and alcohol you are passing up a lot of opportunities. You can be very successful without it, but with it you have no chance of succeeding. For example, you can become a doctor and care for others if you can’t even care for yourself. Or you can’t be a police officer and arrest people for doing crimes, if you’re doing a crime yourself. The biggest mistake people make every day, it’s just simply trying drugs or alcohol for the first time. It only takes one time to get addicted. That one time can make a big impact on your life. Think about it, is it really worth it to feel good for a couple of hours knowing that you’re killing yourself. Doing something dangerous and bad such as drugs and alcohol is simply choosing the wrong. And if you want to be wise you have to choose the right.

What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestone in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost, of course, if others appreciate what you have done too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen you self-belief, and reinforce your determination to succeed. Some of the key characteristics you will find in those who are successful are perseverance, prepared to research, plan and work hard, practice a lot even when things do not seem to be going well, and an ability to recover and learn from setbacks. At the outset of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in, a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievable targets can all play an important role.

Whether studying or in general life, planning is an imperative skill. Here, we must strictly set the hours for studying, and should promote regularity in doing so. Don’t out off your studies to the last moment (just before the test), because in that moments you will be feeling stress and pressure, and both factors will prove disturbing for your learning; that’s the high price of procrastination. During the exam, it’s important to forget about panic and stress. And if you are planning for your thesis, you may find this post useful. Other planning tip I frequently give is that, when you are assigned a homework, try to solve it as quickly as possible, several days before the required date, but don’t try to complete it perfectly and don’t submit it immediately. I always recommend doing homework early, but deliver it at the last possible day.

o   They prefer tasks with some degree of difficulty and novelty, which stimulatle their learning skills.

o   They don’t apply the simple criteria of successfail to their learning. Remember, they are focused into the learning process.

o   They know how to handle groups.

o   Finnally, tey wrok with passion.

Other chief habit is that of asking questions. We have to establish hypotheisi and set concrte, realistic goals, After reading any text we have to ask several different questions realted to its content, in order to verify if we have completely understood the text. Its aslo inportant to try to relate such text and other areas of our knowledge. Again, linking ideas and concerpts is a habit of highly successful students. so, link.

·  They concentrate on the process of solving the task and understanding the involved ideas. Of course we are interested in getting good results, but the process is more important. A result is a very brief moment of life, while learning to develop processes is a skill that will last for the whole life.

·  They interpret and analyze errors as a way of increasing their learning, i.e., they try to learn from their mistakes. This way, they see errors and failures as opportunities.

·  They look for the required information in several channels (books, journals, newspapers, experts, Internet, and so on.)

·  They consult experts and teachers frequently. This action provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

The body is related to the breath, and the breath is related to the mind. The body, breath, senses, and mind all functions together as a unit. So life virtually means relationship, and thus the art of living and being requires an understanding of ones relationship to the external world and the relationships within oneself.

All human beings have inner potentials, but many people are not aware of those potentials and do not know how to use them to have a successful life. Those who are not happy internally can never be happy externally; those who are not happy within themselves can never make others happy. Those who do not love themselves can never love others.

“The harmful effects of smoking”

The harmful effects of smoking from fist hand and second hand smoking are dangerous to anyone. The first hand smoking gives cancer to anyone for example heart cancer or mouth cancer. In experience, smoking taste nasty and don’t know how anyone can get addictive to it. That’s why I say no to smoking cuz it taste nasty. Now for second hand smoking people, it would be better if they stop hanging out with people who smoke tobacco, now if they smoke weed its different but tobacco is nasty.

·      Lungs get black.

·      Teeth get smelly

·      Heart stops working

·      quit smoking

·      Blood cells stop working like before

When a person smokes in front of a baby, I just feel like messing them cuz baby cannot breathe in the futer. Smokers think that smoking will help them distress but it does not, instead it mess them up more and not helping.

Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have to go out and search for keys, or do we have those potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspects—life within and life without; internal life and external life—and we can see that these aspects are an equal importance. Even if we have renounced the world, gone far away from civilization, and live in the wilderness doing nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see that we eat, do out ablutions, and preform our practices on time. So life in the external world is as important as life in the internal world. Even one who has renounced the world has to understand the word relationship properly, because life itself is actually relationship.

If we are to succeed in life, we must hone our learning skills.

1-The first step in this direction is to sincerely point out the driving force or motivation. Let’s relax, and start listing the reasons that impel you to study some topics, as crude as they may be. It’s possible that your list is empty. Don’t worry, it only means that you have not identified any reason to study the chosen and very specific point (It’s for sure that you are an excellent learner in other areas of life.) If you don’t have any motivation to study, then give me the list of reasons why you don’t want to study, and please note that this list cannot be empty. Whether you found a huge list of driving forces or list of reasons for not studying, the end product of this step comprises at least one item (a positive or negative driving force)

By: Herrera

We humans are innate learners, as learning is the cornerstone for survival. We must remember, abstract and apply knowledge in diverse (and often harsh) environments in order to develop into and behave as truly intelligent beings. In short, the adaptability and resilience we exhibit stems from learning. Now, a key issue to learning is the driving force behind it, i.e., the motivation or stimuli to learn. We can learn because of fear (we want to learn how to protect ourselves from danger.) We can learn just out of curiosity (our natural inquisitive behavior.) We can learn because we want to reach some social status (approval of others is a potent stimuli to learn.) We can learn simply because we love to learn new things every day. There are plenty of reasons to learn and yours may easily be a mixture of these. Health and money are important things in life, but learning is the base for using them wisely.
