STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

"You make your habits and
your habits make you."
ANON

What you do the most become your habits and you choose what you do most. If you cuss a lot it'll become a daily thing you won't even notice it happened. If you smile a lot, you will smile without noticing because you're just a happy person. So do good things so you can just do good things without trying.

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens By Sean Covey


7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
By Sean Covey
For teens, life is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And, being the parent of a teenager isn’t any walk in the park, either. In his 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 of 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 old block, and no slacker. His own book has rung in a 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 educational experience. First, participate fully. Engage regularly in the discussions and be willing to share your personal, professional 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 a 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.

Student Success Statement
"It's not WHERE you live but HOW you live that counts. It's not where you play the game but HOW you play the game that counts."
Mr. Haymore

He makes such a clever and true statement. You can live in the ghetto and never be ghetto, you can play in a fancy court and never be good. You can be famous but never happy, you can poor but the happiest person alive. It really doesn't matter where you're at, it's what you do when you're there that counts. You can have bad parents but still love them. You can dance in the rain and not care of the weather or the water dripping down your face. It all depends on what you do, not where you're at. Being in a bad neighborhood won't make you a bad kid, you choose what you become and your surroundings have no say in your choice they're just scenery in the background of your life.

A successful student…
Takes responsibility for his/her own learning
Online learning can be a 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, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates and your instructor will be 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.
