Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement 
"When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece.
This rule is even more important in life than basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day."
John Wooden
Reflection: I completely agree with his quote. The most meaningful part of this quote is when John mentioned "the most important rule".. simply because it's true. He is a very wise man and those words he spoke are nothing but the truth, in an optimist's point of view. He only want the best for everyone. As long as you improve yourself, day by day, you'll make a difference. If you push yourself to do your best, you'll reach your goal eventually only because you are better than how you were yesterday. Setting goals is what can help you reach your destination even quicker! You'll have something to look forward to. Choose the right.

Work Together (2)


Work Together

Part 2

English, math, foreign language tips: For math, all I can say is do the problems assigned. It is the only way to practice and that’s really all it is for math. It’s the same for chemistry; if you do the practice problems you will understand the material so much better because those subjects are not just memorization like history, you need to be able to apply what you have learned in practical situations. As for English, I am no longer taking it, but I would say to leave yourself plenty of time to write essays and papers. They take time to get all the information out of your head and onto the page, so don’t leave them until the last second.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!

Student Success Statement

“Try a little harder to be a little better.”

Gordon B. Hinckely

Reflection: As long as you try, your work will eventually get better. Like that saying “practice makes perfect”, all you need is time. You can’t automatically do something perfectly without experience. Just be dedicated.
