What are the 8 principles of a successful student? |
Posted: July 3, 2018 |
Favorite teachers are ready to teach everything - that is useful in professional activity, to that which is not useful - but who will teach how to be a student? Perhaps this article will be of little use. And here are the promised principles ... 1. Do not go to the library. Reading books does not yet guarantee that you will become a professional in your field. The student who came to the seminar with a bunch of books, causes the laughter of classmates and the teacher's surprise - the latter is not at all interested in the forty-eighth time to listen word-for-word from the obsolete textbook. For myself, I noticed that the best speeches and remarks at the seminars occur when there was not enough time for preliminary preparation. Improvise, learn to work in a state of stress ("God forbid, ask") - in the future career is very useful! 2. Do what not to do. All students should study - it's quite logical, is not it? But nobody forces to be an active member of the student council or trade union, publish a student newspaper, create a radio faculty, strive for the title of the best singer of the university. Instead of reading the next textbook on psychology, open the center for psychological help to students, instead of turning over the book about quality management, offer the university management a plan for improvement. Active students not only gain knowledge, but also develop vital skills. 3. To go in for sports. A rare employer will indicate in the hiring announcement that he will not cooperate with guys whose stomach needs to be carried on a wheelbarrow or with girls whose weight will break office chairs. But it is so. Recognized fact - hiring an employee for any position that involves contact with customers, a specialist in the field of personnel management will appreciate your appearance. The state of the body is no less important component of the personality than the state of mind and spirit. If for a university graduate "sport" remains an unfamiliar word, then this indicates one of two things - laziness or illness. Would you hire such a person? Would you choose him as your second half? 4. Separate your expectations from the expectations of your parents. Mom and Dad can have their own idea about your future. This is their right. Your right is not to divide the view. The choice of specialty, friends, behavior at the university, the company-employer - all this is to be done to you, not your parents. Be ready for independence! 5. To try the forces in that where are weak. Expand your experience. Never played basketball - sign up for the section. Want to become a writer - write essay.The singer's experience is limited to the choir in the primary classes - go to the vocal studio. Strive for a diversified development. 6. To make compliments. This not only helps in communicating with classmates of the opposite sex - the teachers, the management, the canteen and even the security guys are not indifferent to the compliments. This skill will help you in your career not less than university knowledge. 7. Do not strive for excellence. The desire to be perfect in everything is a wonderful way to breakdown nerves. It could work in school, but will lead to constant stress at work. Student years are just the time when it's time to get rid of this character trait. 8. To lower the importance of the opinion of others. Do what you think is right - you do not need to follow the wishes of classmates, your girlfriend, teachers and curators. They do not know what you want - by the way, it's good to decide on that already.
