10 TIMES MAEGMENT TIPS FOR STUDENTS


10 TIME Management Tips for Student Tips 5-10

Tip 5. Review Your Notes Everyday Day.
Reviewing helps you reinforce what you've learned, so you need less time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take a pop quiz.
Tip 6. Get a Good night’s Sleep.
Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer and your tasks seem more difficult.

If phone calls or text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you’re only available at certain times of a day and not to expect a response at other times.
Tip 8. Become a Taskmaster.                                              
Give yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.
Tip 9. Don't waste Time Agonizing.
Instead of agonizing and procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress.
Tip 10. Determine Your Priorities.
You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of of each item. Then set realistic goals goals that are attainable.

Reflection :
Friends hangs out together because they have many things in common and can relate to each other. Now if a good person hangs out with a bad person , he who is a leader will either make the good person choose  wrong decision, or will help the person that is making bad decisions make good decisions. Choosing your friends wisely is important because either influences your decision making in the future. For example, like using drugs or drinking.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw


Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw


 Teens should never get to busy living to make 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 key dimensions of life – body, mind, heart, and soul.

1)   Body. Eat wholesome foods, fruits, vegetables, legumes. Avoid illegal drugs, smoking, alcohol, tobacco products, tattooing. Exercise regularly and effectively. Get 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.”

Habit 6: Synergize.


7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens

Habit 6: Synergize.


Synergy is achieved when two or more people work together to create something better than either could alone. Through this habit, teens learn it doesn’t have to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way. Synergy allows teens to value differences and better appreciate others. Synergy is the reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other habits, especially at thinking Win-Win and seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize is like learning to form V formations with others instead of trying to fly through life solo. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and further you’ll go. Synergy doesn't just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is this: Learn to Celebrate Differences.

A good band is a great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, its all of them together that make up the “sound.” Each band member brings his or her strengths to the table to create something better than each could alone. No instrument is more important than another, just different.

you may thin something is cool or in one day but as time goes by everything gets old or boring and people change , so becoming something you not only because it's popular will not make you famouse or will not make people love you . it will nly lead you to a very bad future and you will lose sight of the things that are more important like school and work.

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


Habit 5


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

Because most people don’t listen very well, one of the great frustrations in life is that many don’t feel understood? This habit will ensure your teen learns the most important communication skill there is: active listening
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 genuine love and understanding. Once 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 hard rather talk than listen. We have one mouth and two ears. This means we should listen twice as much as we talk. We actually learn more while listening rather that when we talk. Learn to listen and listen to learn. Listen, really listen for understanding. Seek first to understand then to be understood--- LISTEN.

7 Habits of highlysuccessful teens : habit 4


7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens


Habits 4
4. Think Win-Win.
Teens can learn to foster the belief that it is possible to create an atmosphere of Win-Win in every relationship. This habit encourages the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the accomplishment of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is a belief that everyone can win. It’s both nice and tough all at once. I won’t step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to succeed as well. Win-Win is abundant. It Is the belief that there’s plenty of success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food for everyone. It’s an all-you-can-eat buffet. Win-win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising benefit of thinking Win-win is the good feeling it brings on. The true test of the alternative is how you feel. Win-lose and lose-win thinking will cloud you judgment and fill you with negative feelings. Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think Win-Win or no deal.

 7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens

Habit 3: put first things first
Habit three is all about WILL and WILL NOT power. This habit helps teens prioritize and manage their time so that they focus on and complete the most important things in their lives. Putting first things first also means learning to overcome fears and being strong during difficult times. Its living life according to what matters most. Putting first things first deal with things that are:
Important or not important, urgent or not urgent, let’s look at the four quadrants of tie management.
Quadrant 1: Things that is important or Urgent
Quadrant 2: Things that is important but not urgent
Quadrant 3: Things that are not important but are Urgent
Quadrant 4: Things that is not important and not urgent.

1.Important & urgent
2.Important but not urgent
3.Not important but are urgent
4.NOT important and NOT urgent
Quadrant 2: is the ideal place to spend your time, doing things that are important but not urgent. Here’s where priorities come into play. The results for living quadrant 2 are:
Control your life
2.   Balance
3.   High performance

So in what quadrant are you spending most of your time? The key is to shift as much possible into quadrant a and this is accomplished by planning. Spend more time planning and incorporating the most important things first. Keep your eyes on the prize.

In order for someone to succeed they must be guided by good habits that will teach them how to be responsible. Although, people may not do what’s right and choosing their priorities first they will only be leading to a hope less future.

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 eyes on the prize.” Determine your desired prize and quit until you have realized the achievement of your prize in mind. Visualize and then realize. Start by having a target in mind; know where you are going.
One prize or goal you definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation for high school—that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity--that you earned it with perfect honesty.

 Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help your teen take control and responsibility for her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happieness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their ow actions or feelings. Proactive people realizre that the ball is their own court, that they are the captain to their own ship: that they are in control, control of their decisions, thoughts, their responsibility, their obligation. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey your parents. Obey with exactness and great things will come to you.

7 habits of highly successful teens: sean covey


7 Habits of Highly Successful                        By Sean Covey


For teens, life is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And, being the parent of the teenager isn’t any walk in the park, either. In 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 their peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack thereof? The life of a teenager is full of tough issues and life changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help them to reach their goals and live a successful life.

 While it’s all is 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 slacker. His own book has rung in more than respectable 2 million copies sold. Here are his seven habits, and some ideas for helping your teen understand and apply them:

Work together. There are a number ways that you can ensure you get the most out of your educational experience. First, participate fully. Engage regularly in the discussions and be willing to share your personal, professional and educational experiences. You can get to know your classmates through the dialogue that is created in a course environment—sometimes even better than in a face-to-face class. And the same goes for your instructor. Be sure to contact your professor—especially if you are having problems. He/she is still your instructor and will be there to guide and assist you as needed.

A successful student …

… Takes responsibility for his\her own learning

Online learning can be a powerful, stimulating, engaging experience for the student who can work and think independently. However, since most—if not all—of the learning takes place on your own time, you will not have the kind of direct supervision you would in a classroom. Online learning therefore requires a significant commitment from you. All education comes down to what you’re willing to invest in the experience—this is particularly true in the online environment. Commitment, self-discipline and self-motivation are all key qualities to ensuring success in an online course!

… Is comfortable and confident with written communication

Reading and writing are the basis of most online courses, so it’s critical that you feel comfortable with this form of communication. While some courses contain modules that include videos or other activities, all of them require significant amounts of reading. And nearly all of your communication with your classmates and your instructor will be in writing. If these are weak areas for you, you will want to address those issues prior to enrolling or while enrolled in an online course. The PSU Writing Center is available to assist you.

   10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students no procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in control of their life.
 An elemental truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! Its your choice: you can lead or be lead, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow other. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. I 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!
