"Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or women seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind."

B.C Forbes

Reflection: I agree with this whole statement because it is true. Being an honest person shows the kind of person you are. More people will trust you and believe you. Good things will come from honesty.

Honesty

Honesty is always the best policy. Employers need to know that they can trust you with everything from company credit cards to trade secrets. How can you work at honesty? You demonstrate integrity every day that you do your own homework and resist the temptation to cheat on exams.

"Stop worrying whether about you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on whats's happening right this moment."

I agree with this statement because no one will never know the outcome of an event. There is no garentee that what you think will actually happen. Your focus should be on the know to ensure the outcome of your future.

Time Management 8 of 10

Time Management

8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be real pro when it comes to juggling demands on your time – classes, homework, and activities – with some family help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs require multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting  new ones, respond to e-mails while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrow’s produce while planning next week’s menu.

Someone said “Wherever you are, be there” Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here and there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment

Attention to detail 7 of 10

Attention to detail

7 of 10

When you double-check your calculations for math problems or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.

John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who leads his teams to ten executive 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 paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.

Details may be small things, but from small things come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

Cool Under Pressure 6 of 10

Coo Under Pressure

6 of 10

Very few students enjoy taking tests. Yet functioning well under pressure is crucial to your future success. Try thinking of the pressure of testing as practice for the work world’s own explosive situations. You could someday find yourself meeting tight deadlines, speaking with irate customers, wielding a scalpel or handling dangerous chemicals.

The best way to curtail pressure and to even eliminate it is to prepare. Applying the motto “Be prepared” holds true first time and every time. Prepare for that tests, and you won’t worry about it. In fact, it will be your chance to shine, to reveal the hard work you have put into preparing for the test. You will be rewarded for the effort you have thrust into your studies. Preparation removes fear. Preparation helps you maintain your cool under pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm; therefor, prepare and your coolness under pressure is sure to abound.

"Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable."

I agree with this statement by Mr. Drucker. We live in a world where many nasty things are acceptable but not right. We should start by doing what's right and continue doing that to set an example that the whole world will see.

Initiative 5 of 10

Initiative

5 of 10

Initiative is creativity, inventiveness, originality, ingenuity, imagination. Every time you respond in class, every time you choose your own research topic, every time you put together your own interpretation of a piece of literature, you take initiative. And future employers value can-do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own course through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking initiative.

Problem Solving Skills 4 of 10

Problem-Solving Skills

   4 of 10

Problem solving goes far beyond your math textbook. Every assignment is an opportunity to weigh all possible solutions carefully and choose the one you think is best. As a working professional, you’ll be solving problems regularly, whether it’s fixing a bug in a computer program or overcoming budget shortfalls. Problem solving situations occur extensively and frequently; therefore, be ready when then come.

When problems or challenges occur, some people look at them at negative experiences, as crisis. These people are the ones who live day by day with gloom and negativism in their attitudes. But the really successful people, those who are cheerful and optimistic, are those who look at problems as opportunities, opportunities to learn, grow, expand, their horizons, and make new discoveries. They look on the bright side of things and live happy lives.

Teamwork Skills

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

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

2 of 10

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

http:www.newswiretoday.com/news/17334/

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

“The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said Dr. Micheal Telch of the laboratory for the study of Anxiety Disorders (LASD) in the department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin. “People have had to turn down jobs, and certainly student have had to drop classes because of it.”

Regardless of your occupation, your success depends on 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 sneak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.

        "Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will; nothing is more common than unsuccessful man with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan has solved and always will solve the problems 'press no’  of the human race."

Reflection:

I agree with this statement because without persistence, you will never achieve anything. You and you alone posses the power to either go that extra mile or give up and spend the rest of your life thinking of what could have been.

Writing Skills 1 of 10

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

Health professionals keep patient charts, researches depend on the money they collect by writing grant applications, software engineers write technical specification 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 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.
