"Education is a Marathon--not a sprint"

- Anon

Reflection: Education isn’t something you can run through it needs to be done at an appropriate race and time because you need to make sure you are actually learning. Sure you need to make sure you are making sure you’re on the right path and going somewhere in life and becoming someone amazing. Education will lead you to becoming what you want, and it all depends on your type of education to see if you are on track for what you want to do. Don’t just do something for someone else do something for you. Always do things for you, maybe education isn’t right for you so all you need to do is see if it is and if you need it to be what you want. Always conquer, be you.

Every time your class breaks into groups to tackle a challenge, you build teamwork skills. In college, you’ll continue to have these opportunities to practice voicing your opportunities to practice voicing your opinions, listening and responding to others, and reaching compromises. By the time you leave college, you can be an expert in the important workplace skills.

Together

Everyone

Achieves

More

Individually you can achieve so much, but when you work with others for a common cause, the same objectives, you can accomplish a tremendous          amount more. You synergize your talents,       knowledge, and skills with those whom you work.       All members of the team are edified together, a type       of edification you can’t obtain by working alone.

Speaking Skills

When you’re assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing it as unimportant part of your education. Employers look for speaking skills in job applicants, who may have to give presentation to clients or represent their organization in the field. It’s never too soon to practice good eye contact and other public speaking techniques.

According to the Book of List, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in the minds of the majority of people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker wants to help people overcome that fear.

“The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said Dr. Michael Telch of the Laboratory for the Study of Anxiety Disorders (LSAD) in the Department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin. “People have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped classes because of it.”

Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon your ability to communicate effectively! Whether you’re running a meeting, selling a product, making a presentation, motivating co-workers or just communicating one-on-one with others, you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT.

Student Success Statement: Calvin Coolidge

Student Success Statement

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race." 

- Calvin Coolidge,30th president of the United States

Reflection:  Well Mr. Coolidge has a point when you have persistence you will surely get more things done. You need determination and dedication. You need to be what is right you need to keep going when things get hard or rough you need to venture on and carry on and continue going because you’re not going to let anything get in your way because you know what you want and no one else. You need to be someone who leads and works tremendous measures to find whatever you’re looking out for.

Writing Skills: 1 of 10

Writing Skills

Communication is at the top of the list of skills that employers look for. And communication in the workplace often means writing.

Health professionals keep patient charts, researchers depend on the money they collect by writing grant applications, software engineers write technical specifications, and nearly everyone writes e-mail to people inside and outside their organization. And before you even get the chance to interview for a job, you’ll need to present yourself in cover letters and resumes.

So, by taking writing serious and doing your best on every research paper, every lab report you write, every new post you write in your blog site, and every writing activity you engage in , you’re preparing yourself for a good career.

Student Success Statement: Herbert Kaufman

Student Success Statement

“Failure is only postponed success as long as courage coaches ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.”

Herbert Kaufman

Reflection: Well you always have to know what is victory and based off of everything Mr. Haymore has taught us it’s a state of choosing the right. But what if you need to do something that requires you to choose the wrong and how do you know what the right is? You can’t base your life off of something you heard because honestly you don’t know what it is. Everyone is entitled to opinion as I have my free speech, what I’m trying to say is you need to do what you think is right to gain victory.
