“Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, and fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays both in dollars and in peace of mind.”
B.C Forbes

This is an amazing statement by Bertie Charles Forbes/ B.C Forbes. Honesty is a fundamental aspect of an individual’s ideals and values and is a requirement for success. Although most of the time honesty can be a difficult norm to implicate its enormous amount of importance should be assessed when you do not want implicate honesty into your lifestyle. Honesty is a very compensating quality that is praised by many, but not implicated by many because as we all know it honesty is a much more superior quality than deceitfulness and many are aware of this and choose to not implicate it. For those who do implicate honesty they will succeed since they are incorporating a fundamental aspect into their lives enhancing their perspectives.

“Stop worrying about whether you are going to win or lose and focus your attention on what’s happening right this moment.”
Phil Jackson
11 World Championships-Coach
2 World Championships-Player
2 High School Championships-Player

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Jackson

This is an amazing statement by Phil Jackson. If you prioritize your current objective than it will be much easier to indulge yourself into the objective than if you begin to think about the possible consequences which will cloud your thinking. For example, suppose a kid is preparing himself for a soccer game, but is distracted when being told the routine in which the game would be played because he is thinking about whether they would win or lose the game. When he begins to play he does not remember the routines and causes his team to lose the game. If the student would have prioritized his current objective (the soccer game) then he would have not been preoccupied with the game’s outcome and would have played more efficiently. If you devote yourself to your current objective while slightly disregarding the aftermath then you will succeed because you will not devote yourself into formulating possible aftermaths which will lead to failure.

Time Management: 8 of 10

Time Management
8 of 10

Master the moments that require your time and you may become a professional when handling many demands on your time – classes, homework and activities --- with the aid of a family member. College/ University allow you the opportunity to sharpen your time management skills by allowing you to solitarily handle those situations.  That is benefitting since most careers require multitasking. You might need to satisfy a client while attempting to attract new ones, respond to e-mails while working on an important presentation, or order the next day’s produce while planning next week’s menu.

          Someone said, “Wherever you are, be there.” Focus on your present objective. Do not allow your mind to wander and disengage your concentration. You cannot travel back in time and recapture this moment that is why you need to be diligent when focused on an objective. Master the present and you will master the future. Work intelligently by mastering prioritizing a current objective.

“Truth is the only safe ground to stand upon.”
Elizabeth Cady Stanton

This is an amazing statement by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Lies cannot harbor an individual from any danger; lies only induce more danger and chaos. The truth will always be a much more prosperous decision then lying because the truth while it cannot harbor you from any physical danger it is the most secure decision there is. For example, if you need to attend a birthday celebration, but have also accepted an invitation to another celebration and you lie to the person who arranged the celebration and inform them that you are currently feeling very ill (which is a lie because you are not feeling ill.” After doing such you decide to go to the other celebration with a sensation of guilt and doubtfulness. later that evening the person who person who arranged the celebration brings you a slice of cake from the celebration just as you are walking back from the other celebration with some associates and  you are seen by the person that you deceived and that person is now angry and disappointed. Would you rather have told her the truth and arranged a plan where you could attend both celebrations? I believe most will answer yes because the solution was too simple. You could have arranged to go to the first celebration for an hour and then relocate to the other celebration without deceiving anone.

Examination of Detail: 7 of 10

Examination of Detail
7 of 10

When you review your calculations for a mathematically integrated problem or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re cautiously examining details. This skill is quite useful in any work environment, whether you maintain a database; keep a log of the hours you devote with clients or write e-mails.

          John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who led his team to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that paying attention to details was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even diligently examined detail when his players would lace and tie their shoe strings. If they did not lace them adequately, he would instruct them on the proper procedure.

          Details may even seem miniscule, but from miniscule things come forth amazing wonders; therefore, carefully examine details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

“Everyone is the architect of their own learning.”
Claudius

This is an amazing statement by Claudius. Like our future our education can be manipulated by us and molded to our standards, but like future consequences we must be held accountable for our decisions. The statement above utilizes a superb figurative example conveying the student as the architect and their education as their building. For example, say a student attends all of his classes and completes all of his work while another student does not complete his work and when transported to school does not actually enter the premises. Which of these students will likely have a more promising future? Well it is obviously the one who is setting up an adequate foundation for himself within his education. Let us compare these two students to two managers; the adequate student always instructs his employees on the proper procedures if a fire ever occurs inside of the building while the inadequate student vaguely explains the procedure to his employees. If there was ever a fire then the adequate student’s employees will most likely exit the building without sustaining any mortal injuries. As said before the consequences derived from our decisions will impact many as well as yourself.
