       “Truth is the only safe ground
       to stand upon”
       Elizabeth Cady Stanton

I believe that what this statement means is that you will always be fine if you tell the truth. On the other hand if you lie you will be treading dangerous grounds. Give others the respect they deserve by giving them the truth.

Attention to detail

7 of 10

When you double check your calculations for a math problem or cite sources carefully in 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 led his team to ten consecutive national championships, 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 shoes strings. If they didn’t toe them correctly, he would teach them how.

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

Cool Under Pressure

6 of 10

Very few students enjoy taking test. Yet functioning well under pressure is crucial to your future success. Try thinking of pressure of testing as practice for the work world’s own explosive situations. You 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. Apply the motto “Be prepared” holds true first time and every time. Prepare for that 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 that 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 pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm; therefore, prepare and your coolness is sure to be abound.

“Start with what is right rather

Than what is acceptable”

-Peter F. Drucker

Reflection

Drucker is trying to tell us that there are many things in the world that aren’t right and yet are still acceptable. Remember that right will always be right and popularity will not affect it. Sometimes the law allows for certain things to pass even though they are not right. Just choose the right

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 the initiative. And future employers value can-do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own courses through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant- people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do and do 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 chose the one you think is best. As a working professional, you’ll be solving problems regularly, whether it is fixing a bug on a computer program or overcoming budget shortfalls. Problem solving situations occur extensively and frequently, therefore be ready when they come.

When problems or challenges occur, some people look at 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.

“Education is a marathon—not a sprint”

Reflection

Basically what this person is trying to say is that education is long term not short term. Don’t think that ones you are done with high school you should stop learning. High School is just the beginning of your education. Just keep going but don't go to fast if you know what i mean. ;)

Speaking Skills

2 of 10

When you’re assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing 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 is never too soon to practice good eye contact and other public speaking techniques.

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 Americans experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said Dr. Michael Telch of the laboratory for the study of anxiety disorders (LSAD) in the department Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. “People have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped class 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 coworkers or just communicating one on one with others, you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively, smoothly, and intelligently.
