STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT


Student Success Statement

“You are accountable for YOUR choices”

By Thomas S. Monson

 

This statement is very true; it’s basically another way for saying “you’ll reap what you sow”. If you do wrong, make wrong choices, be lazy, you’ll get poor feedback. You might lose your job or fail. If you do well, though, you will get a great reward! CHOOSE THE RIGHT!

50 HABITS OF SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE

(HABITS 21-30)

 

21. They don’t believe in, or wait for fate, destiny, chance or luck to determine or shape their future. They believe in, and are committed to actively and consciously creating their own best life.

22. While many people are reactive, they are proactive. They take action before they have to.

23. They are more effective than most at managing their emotions. They feel like we all do but they are not slaves to their emotions.

24. They are good communicators and they consciously work at it.

25. They have a plan for their and they work methodically at turning that plan into reality. Their life is not a clumsy series of unplanned events and outcomes.

26.  Their desire to be exceptional means that they typically do things that most won’t. They become exceptional by choice. We’re all faced with life-shaping decisions almost daily. Successful people make the decisions that most won’t and don’t.

27. While many people are pleasure junkies and avoid pain and discomfort at all costs, successful people understand the value and benefits of working through the tough stuff that most would avoid.

28. They have identified their core values (what is important to them) and they do their best to live a life which is reflective of those values.

29. They have balance. While they may be financially successful, they known that the terms money and success are not interchangeable. They understand that people, who are successful on a financial level only, are not successful at all. Unfortunately we live in a society which teaches that money equals success. Like many other things, money is a tool. It’s certainly not a bad thing but ultimately; it’s just another resource. Unfortunately, too many people worship it.

30. They understand the importance of discipline and self-control. They are strong. They are happy to take the road less traveled.

“Doing what is right, fair, and honorable is more important than winning or losing.”- Chick Moorman

                   Doing what is right, fair, and honorable is great. It makes you feel great inside, and it’s the right thing to do. I know that when I’m playing in a game, if someone plays dirty. They’re frowned up. They’re also penalized. It isn’t right. I try to play fair as much as I can, and if I accidentally do something wrong, I immediately apologize. I choose the right. That way, if I win, I did it the right way. If I win or lose, I will have done the right thing and I’ll feel good about myself.

What is personality? The word “Personality” comes from the root persona, which means “mask.” Our personality is a mask that we wear. We don’t have to wear a mask when we are by ourselves; we wear a mask to express ourselves to others. Our personality is a character, and that character is composed of certain habits. Each of us has numerous habits; so when we want to understand our personality, we should understand our habit patterns. A habit pattern is a conscious thought or action that one repeats again and again. This creates a groove in the unconscious mind and forms an unconscious habit. Unconscious habits are stronger than conscious habits. All habit patterns are self-created. When we sit down and try to understand which of our habits control our life, we see that there are many deep-rooted habits within us.
Choose habits that will mold your personality into a super successful student and person.
