Choose where to study

Where you should study depend in two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.

·         The best place to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough dark space-usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.

·         For completing problems sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.

·         When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.

Improving Your Study Habits

Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:

·         Have a routine for where and when you study.

·         Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.

·         Do things that are harder or require more intense though at your most productive time of the day.

·         Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not absorbing it.

·         Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask question.

·         Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

Develop good study habits.

In college, you’ll need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.

Yu can succeed by knowing what to expect in college and how to handle it. Think of college as a full time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework.

Be organized and using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use the guidelines below to develop your study skills.

Decide when to study

Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.

·        Figure out what blocks of time you have available through-out the day, in the evenings and on weekends.

·       Consider what time of day you are most alert – there are mornings people and night owls – and try to schedule you’re studying accordingly.

·        Think about whether you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for a marathon session.

Teens should never get too busy living to take time to renew themselves. When teens “sharpen the saw” they are keeping their personal self sharp so that they can better deal with life. It means regularly renewing and strengthening the four keys dimension of life-body, mind, and soul.

1.   Body. Eat wholesome foods, fruit, veggies, legumes avoid illegal drugs, smoking, alcohol, tobacco products, tattooing. Exercise regularly and effectively. Getting plenty of rest at night. Get to bed early at night and get up early each morning. “early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

2.   Mind. Think positively. Read. Study. Think. Analyze. Seek to read a good book each month. Then each week. Ask intelligent questions. Observe. Develop your mind through positive “self-talk.”

Valentine’s Day

Valentine ’s Day is the day when people express their love to anyone they would like to. They might show their love to their family, boy/girlfriends, or friends. Some people give their loved ones some candy or balloon or a card. This holiday lands on the day or February 14. A man named Saint Valentine was the man responsible for creating this holiday. This day is mostly for romantic love. People like to use hearts or the color red on Valentine ’s Day because red resembles the color of love.  A lot of Christians were named Valentine. Sometimes a group of friends would throw a Valentine ’s Day party and go crazy. People shouldn’t be doing this and just have a nice day with their loved ones. If you don’t have a valentine maybe you can take out your family or friends. Many people like to get married or propose on Valentine’s day. Valentine’s day is different in many places. Not everyone does it the same way. This day makes many people depressed because they have no one to spend their time with. There is no reason to become depressed people should take this day as an opportunity and go out and look for a special someone since there are many singles out there. Valentine’s day should be everyday and I mean that people should just show their love to another just in one day. People should be doing this all the time. Just remember that valentine’s day should be a day of fun not a day of stress for just not having anyone with you. Have fun with your friends and enjoy life.also with your family

Habit 5

5. Seek first to understand, and then to be understood

Because most of the people don’t listen very well, one of the great frustration in life is that many don’t fell understood. This habit ill ensure your teens learns the most important communication skill there is: active listing.

Why is this habit the key to communication? It’s because the deepest need of the human heart is to be understood. Everyone wants to be respected and valued for who they are-a unique, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-cloned individual. People won’t expose their soft middles unless they feel it, however, they will tell you more than you may want to hear. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.

Listen with your eyes, heart, and ears. 7 percent of communication is contained in the words we use. The rest comes from body language (53 percent) and how we say words, or the tone and feeling reflected in our voice (40 percent).

Most people are eager to talk and had rather talk than listen. We have one mouth and two ears. This means we should listen twice as much as well we talk. We actually learn more while listening rather than we talk. Learn to listen to learn.

Listen, really listen for understanding. Seek first to understand then to be understood-listen.

Habit 2: begin with the End in Mind

If teens aren’t clear about where they want to end up in life, about their values, goals, and what they stand for, they will wander, waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the opinions of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road map and direct and guide his decision-making process.

“Keep your eye on the prize.” Determine your desired prize and don’t quit until you have realized that achievements for your prize. Then set another prize, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Begin with the achievement of your prize in mind.  Visualize and then realize. Start by having a target in mind; know where are you going

One prize or goal definitely need to establish for yo

One prize one goal you definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school-that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity-that you earned it with perfect honestly.

7 Habits of Highly successful Teens

Habit 1

By Sean Covey but modified

Habit 1: Be proactive.

Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help your teen take control and responsibility of her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball in their court, that they are the captain of their own ship; that they are in control of their decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions, goals, actions, and priorities. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievements or their assignments, their duties, their responsibilities, their obligation. Choosing to do what is write is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey your parents. Obey the exactness, and great things will come to you. Be proactive and take the initiative.

His book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, author Sean Covey attempts to provide “a compass to help teens and their parents navigate the problems they encounter daily.” How will they deal with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or thereof? The life of a teenager is full of tough issues and life-changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible to help them reach their goals and live a successful life.

While its all well and good to tell kids how to live their lives. “teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say, “Covey says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen Covey. Wrote the book The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies. Sean’s a chip off the old block, and no slackers. His own book has rung in a more than respectable 2 million copies sold. Here are his seven habits, and some ideas for helping your teen understand and apply them:

10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.

An element truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skills problem for college students. It ultimately causes many students to become non-students! Procrastinators are good excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!
