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.

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.

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.

Student Success Statement
“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius well 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”

Student Success Statement

“Failure is only postponed success as long as courage coaches ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.”

                     Herbert Kaufman

Well failure is not the key to succeed, just letting you know. To listen to your coaches and do the right thing is to lead you to success. Like for example telling the truth on a game basketball game. That’s how you succeed.
