Cool Under Pressure

6 of 10

Very few students enjoy taking test. 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 to even eliminate it is to prepare. Apply the motto “Be prepared” holds true first time and every time. Prepare for that test, 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. When you are prepared, you will not fear. Preparation helps you maintain your cool under pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm; therefore prepare and coolness under pressure is sure to abound.

When one is going about doing things one must always begin with what is right never start with what may be right for some. It is being able to do this that shows how wise someone is.

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-relentless. Self-relentless people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required and do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.

“To be great—concentrate.”

-Orson Swett Marden

If one want s to be great in life concentration is what is needed in high quantity as it is what will get you to achieve what it is you want. If one does not concentrate then he is doomed to not learn what it is one must do to achieve that which he so wishes to achieve. Concentration in school is what allows you to learn material with an ease one would not have by just simply not listening to what it is that, that person is hearing.

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 a crisis. These people are the ones who live day by day with gloom and negativism in their attitude. 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 Brightside of things and live happy lives.

“Education is a marathon—not a sprint”

-ANON

I believe that the educational system is flawed in so many ways on purpose. The education that one has in this lifetime is just horrid. Today’s educational system is nothing more than mere indoctrination. The schools throughout want you to have an education because they know it will keep you down and zombified with false information. It is in today’s educational system that children are made into the mindless sheep that they are. Albert Einstein once said “The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.”

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