How To Always Succeed in School

Part 8

·         Many people avoid making decisions their whole lives, so their decisive faculty of mind, the faculty of mind, the faculty of discrimination becomes rusty and dies. Such people become totally dependent on others. When we study the four functions of the mind – buddhi, the faculty of decisiveness, ego, the principle of identity, chitta, the storehouse of impressions, and manas, the importer and exporter of sensations and experience – then we become aware of the power of the will. Will power is that something within us that comes forward and says, “Do this. It will be helpful for you. “Training the internal functions helps us to understand the decisive faculty of the mind, without which we cannot be successful.

·         Watch what you do on a daily basis. We become what we do and think about. If you think about nothing-you will become nothing. If you think about being a great student you will become a great student. If you think about being honest- you will be honest. The activities and thoughts that fill your day are keys to living successfully in school and throughout your adult life.

  This is what I think of the story. It was mainly sad because of how awful they chose the wrong. They could of injured or even killed someone.

·         Students know they should learn to decide on time, but they don’t do it. They always sat, ”Well, I knew it. I understood the key, but I did not act in time.” Though they may think correctly, and accurately understand the situation properly, they suddenly lose confidence. This is a world of competition; someone else is always trying to attain the same thing we are. So if we do not decide on time someone else will attain what we want. Time is valuable in the external world. A tender bamboo can be easily bent, but if we try to bend a mature bamboo, it will break. That which we have to do today, we should not postpone to tomorrow, but we should also not make decisions in haste. We may have a setback if we make a wrong decisions, but our mistakes will teach us.

·         We must learn from the successes and mistakes of others. When we see another student succeeding greatly and honorably, learn how they do it and pattern your studies after there’s. Also, on the other hand, when you see other students failing miserably, learn how they do it and AVOID doing what they do or else you will join them in the failure’s club.

·         Make the most of your time and opportunities while at school. Don’t waist valuable time.

Do the math. Even if you’re struggling in math, stay with it. Knowing math gives you options. It opens doors to good jobs in computers, engineering and business. And it helps your mind get organized.

·       Take math problems one step at a time.

·       Do your math homework every day. Falling behind will make it that much harder.

·       Ask for help and study with friends if you are having problems understanding a concept.

·       The first point to understand is the philosophy and science of decision—how to make decisions on time. The most successful person is that a person who knows how to decide on time. There are many extraordinarily brilliant people who understand things very quickly, but when the times come to make a decision, when the time comes to make a decision, when an opportunity comes, they withdraw and are not able to act. They do not know how to decide.

   Global issues reflection:

•  Describe at least one of the issues discussed in as much detail as possible.

        That a lot o people are suffering or in poverty and that is a horrible issue well I think to go through. But as well that all people in poverty don't waste their time they do other things that keep them entertained.

• What could you do to help solve this issue?

Well i can't just magically snap my fingers and disappear poverty but mostly all people that are in poverty is because they had no type of job and did not go to college to better themselves. they chose the wrong and decided that they probably didn't need to work or try harder to succeed more to be better in life. Most that are in poverty are there to begin with because of drug use or alcohol use they decided to do different that ruined them

• Do you think w have issues or similar ones here in U.S?

Well this is probably all over the world that what I think

Write. Writing is way to express yourself: your ideas, opinions and knowledge. And you may do a lot of it in college and on the job.

·         Write a little every day. Try keeping a daily journal to make a habit of writing.

·         Read outside class to increase your vocabulary and understanding of grammar.

·         Break up long writing sessions into shorter periods with regular breaks.

·         Let your writing sit for a while and then come back to it.

·         Read your writing out loud or have someone read it to you.

·         Edit someone else’s writing and let that person edit yours.

·         Learn to write and write to learn

·         Write creatively. Writing on your personal web blog is a great way to put your words into writing and to journalize your writing day after day.

·         Write your life history

·         Write your life’s goals in a journal, review these goals often, revise your goals often. But write them down.

·         “Writing maketh an exact man; therefore, he that writeth little hath need of a great memory” (Anon)
