“Stop worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what’s happening right this moment.”
Phil Jackson
11 world championships-coach

2 high school championships-player
To live life worrying about tomorrow or your actions from yesterday is just a waste of time. To worry about the past is pointless as it has already happened there is nothing you can do about it. To worry about the future is also pointless as it has yet to happen so why are you worried? The only thing that matters is the present moment that is happening at this very moment. It is when we allow ourselves to be distracted by the past or the future that we will fail to live.

Time Management 8 of 10

Time Management
8 of 10
Master the moments and you may be real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time-classes, homework and activities – with some family help. Colleges give 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-mail while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrow’s produces while planning next week’s menu.
Someone said, “Wherever you are, be there.” Focus on the present moments and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wonder here and their when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moments, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moments.

Attention to detail 7 of 10

Attention to detail
7 of 10
When you double check your calculations for math problems or cite source carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any work place, whether you’re maintaining a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write email.         
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 purist.  He even paid attention to how his player would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.
  Detail may be small things, but form small things to details come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

“Everyone is the architect of their own learning.”
-Claudius
This is true on a level that most cannot begin to even grasp. Everyone one must be responsible for their own learning as it is up to you to learn what needs to be learned. Ones education is not important; education merely interferes with your learning. Education today is based on teaching you things that have no meaning they thrive on teaching you the lesser points of something. It is up to you to learn on your own, to gain experience.
