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 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 learnt. You can develop inner strength to succeed if you apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover form setbacks more easily.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students Part 10


       Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students Part 10

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

·      They don’t apply the simple criteria of success-fail to their learning. Remember, they are focused into the learning process.

·      They know how to handle groups.

·      Finally, they work with passion.

 

Other chief habit is that of asking questions. We have to establish hypothesis and set concrete, realistic goals. After reading any text we have to ask several different questions related to its content, in order to verify if we have completely understood the text. It’s also important to try to relate such text and other areas of our knowledge. Again, linking ideas and concepts is a habit of highly successful students. So, link.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students (Part 5)


Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students

                                  Part 5

2-Success is about achieving goals, and therefore is a relative notion. Highly successful students are those which set realistic goals, and attain them with the proper investment of resources. Thus, not necessarily the student with the best grades is the most successful learner. Now, we have stated what the successful student is like. Good.

 

2-          If you have negative entries in your list of driving forces, it’s time to improve things quite a bit. First, identify other topics that you indeed like a lot, not necessarily related to studying. Perhaps you like pets, to cook or to play videogames. Now, try to establish associations or links between these favorite activities of yours and the subject of study that you dislike. For example, let’s assume that you dislike Literature (you perhaps think it’s an utterly boredom) but love your humongous pit-bull “Casino Joe” Then you could start thinking how your dog would fit a character into a novel you have to analyze: what its role would be and how he would interact with other characters in the novel.

The body is related to the breath, and the breath is related to the mind. The body, breaths, senses, and mind all function together as a unit. So life virtually means relationship, and thus the art of living and being requires an understanding of one’s 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

If are we 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 topic, 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. Weather you found a huge list of driving forces or a list of 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 begins. In short, the adaptability and resilience exhibits stems from learning. Now, a key issue to 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 simply  because we love to learn new things everyday. There are 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.
