Student Success Statement
""Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless, on both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind.'"
B.C Forbes
This statement means that if you're honest, you will be happy. It is also saying that being honest will make you a better person. I agree with this statement because if you are honest people will be honest with you in return.
Honesty
9 of 10
Honesty is always the best policy. Employers need to know that they can trust you with everything from company credit cards to trade secrets. How can you work at honesty? You demonstrate integrity every day that you do your own homework and resist the temptation to cheat on exams.

Student Success Statement
"Stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what's happening right this moment."
- Phil Jackson
This statement is saying that whenever you are doing something you should always focus on what it is that you are doing; not something else. I agree with this statement because when you are trying to do something but you are thinking about something else, you will not succeed.
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 & activities- with some family help.  College gives you 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 emails 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 the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you well master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment

Student Success Statement
"Everyone is the architect of their own learning."
-Claudius
This statement means that everyone is responsible for their own consequences. For example, if you get a bad grade on your test, nobody but you is responsible for that grade besides yourself. And for every action there is a reaction.
Student Success Statement
"Truth is the only safe ground to stand upon."
-Elizabeth Cady Stanton
This statement is saying that you should always speak the truth. I agree with this statement because saying the truth is always the right thing to do, even if telling the truth is hard, you will feel relieved after it is told.
Attention to Detail
7 of 10
When you double check your calculations for a 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 write emails.
John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who led this teams to ten consecutive national; championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number if things, he mentioned that paying attention to details was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how hi players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.
Details may be small things but from small things come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.
