Time Management

               8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many 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 most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.

“Truth is the only safe ground to stand up on”

Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Elizabeth has a point on what she is talking about truth. Truth is something hard to come by these days as men and women cheat on other knowing the truth but not telling it. Always tell the truth or it will come back and bite you in the butt. So yea pretty much just choose the right.  

Attention to Detail

7 of 10

When you double-check your calculations for math problem 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 re write emails. John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who leads his team to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributes his success to. Among a number of things he mentions that paying attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn't tie them correctly, he would teach how. Details may be small things, but from small things come great things; pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

Cool 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 the 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 you 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 your coolness under pressure is sure to abound.

Initiative

   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 inspiration 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 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.

Speaking Skills

2 of 10

When you’re assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing it as an unimportant 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 good eye contact and other public 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. Far above the fear above death and disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker wants to help people overcome that fear.

“The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said Dr. Michael Telch of the Laboratory for the Study of Anxiety Disorder (LSAD) in the department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin. “People have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped classes because of it.

Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a 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 communicate one-on-one with others, you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.

Writing Skills

           1 of 10

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

Health professionals keep patient charts, researchers depend on the money they collect by writing grant application, software engineers write technical specifications, 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 best on every research paper, every lab report you writ, every new post you write in your blog site, and every writing activity you engage in, you’re preparing yourself for a good career.

Answer every question.

Unless there is a penalty for wrong answers, try to answer every question; you may be able to get partial credit for those you begin but don’t complete correctly.

Ask questions.

If a question isn’t clear, talk to your teacher. If that’s not possible, explain your answer in the margin.

More Tips

Finally, look beyond the article for more clues.

·       Read the website’s home page and the About Us page. Look for a mission statement to learn more about the site, its purpose and the organization sponsoring it.

·       If there is an author listed, look for a biography that discusses the author’s education, profession and other relevant background. If there is no bio on the site, search for one elsewhere on the Web.

·       Check the date. Facts can change over time, so see if the site shows when it was last updated.

·       Presentation counts; look at everything from design to spelling. A clean, well-organized site shows a certain degree of professionalism.

Read Between the Lines

Make a judgment about the site’s reliability based on your own analysis of the site and the information it contains. Here are some ways to do this:

·       Look for facts you know or can check with a trusted source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely that the other facts on the site are also accurate.

·       Study the language used. Is it angry, satiric or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site is biased.

·       Consider whether the arguments are logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the site presents only one point of view.

·       Check the links to the sources that the author acknowledges. Scholarly writing, whether in print or online, should include a bibliography.
