·         They concentrate on the process of solving the task and understanding the involved ideas. Of course we are interested in getting good results, but the process is more important. A result is a very brief moment of life, while learning to develop processes is a skill that will last for the whole life.

·         They interpret and analyze errors as a way of increasing their learning, i.e., they try to learn from their mistakes. This way, they see errors and failures as opportunities.

·         They look the required information in several channels (books, journals, newspapers, experts, internet, and so on.)

·         They consult experts and teachers frequently. This action provides a new perspective about the studied topics.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students Part 7

Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do you have to go out and search for those keys, or do we have those potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspect –life within and life without; internal life and external life –and we can see that these aspects are of equal importance. Even if we have renounced the world, gone far away from civilization, and live in the wilderness doing nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see that we eat, do our ablutions and perform our practices on time. So life in the external world is as important as life in the internal world.

If you prefer to play videogames, then remember that making any video game requires to prepare a detailed script including history, characters, goals and relations. Therefore, you could start writing down the script for your “dream” game. On the other side, you could imagine hoe the novel you are reading could be transformed into a videogame (start out by thinking which gaming genre fits the novel better: role-playing, adventure, action, and so on.) the basic idea is to find match points and links between our affection and our chores. And such links there always exist. Remember, to link ideas and a concept is the most important habit for successful students.

Successful students also exhibit other particular traits we should internalize:

The Importance of Taking Personal Responsibility

The Importance of Taking Personal  Responsibility

The importance is to take your responsibility with you. If you don’t then that is choosing the wrong. Always take care of your responsibility before doing something else, and if you don’t, it can make even more problems with your life. When everything else has receded into finality behind a clear wall of judgment, self responsibility remains as the only thing someone can reference for vindication.

Responsibility — it evokes images of austere emotions; a call to sometimes own up to unpleasant but necessary personal conduct and moral obligations. A lesson taught from the first day of first grade to the last day of life. A test we seem to fail over and over again and pass at a high cost.

Therefore, it can appear obvious why so often, when facing the consequences of their decisions, people often throw their hands in the air and naively fake accountability. For if we have established how lofty taking responsibility for our actions often feels, then shouldn’t we acknowledge, accept and excuse most failures in this area?

Maybe the way of considering this involves how much of our humanness we can sacrifice in the answer. If we answer yes, then we place ourselves much lower on the evolutionary chain then we previously stood. Because what sets us apart as an advanced species lies not in bipedal locomotion and the ability for speech, but in our proclivity for ethical reasoning and conscientiousness. We willingly recognize the possibility for taking the blame.

2) Success is about achieving goals, and therefore is a relative motion. Highly successful students are those which set realistic goals; 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 started what the successful student is like. Good.

2- if you have negative entries in your life of driving forces, its 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, lets assume that you dislike Literature ( you perhaps think its an utterly boredom) but love your humongous pit-bull “Casino Joe” Then you could start thinking how your dog would fit as a character into that 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, breath, 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 relationship 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.
