Choose where to study
Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.

· The best places to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk space----usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.
· For completing problem set’s or brainstorming possible test question’s you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow student’s are available for discussion.
· When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.
Improve your study habit’s

· Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying;
· Have a routine for where and when you study.

Develop good study habits
In college, you’ll need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to. You can succeed by knowing what to expect and how to handle it. Think of college as a full-time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework. Being organized and using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use the guidelines below to develop your study skills.
Decide when to study
·    Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.
·    Figure out what blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on weekends.
·    Consider what time of day you are most alert---and try to schedule your studying accordingly.
·    Think about whether you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon sessions.

Teens should never get too busy living to take time to renew them. 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.”

7 habits of highly successful teens
Habit 6
Synergy is archived 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 difference and better appreciate other’s. 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 farther 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 difference. A good band is real great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, it’s all of them together that make up the “sound.’’

Habit 5
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 teens learn 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 it. Listen with your eyes, heart, and ears “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 had rather talk than listen. We have one mouth and two ears. Listen really listen, for understanding. Seek first to understand.

7 habits of highly effective teens habit 4


7 habits of highly effective teens
Habit 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 accomplishments 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 feelings it brings on. The true test of whether or not you are thinking win-win or one of the alternatives is how you feel. Win-lose and lose-win thinking will cloud your 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
Habit three is 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 life. 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 deals with things that are: important or not important, urgent or not urgent. Let’s look at the four quadrants of time management.
Quadrant 1: things that is important and urgent.
Quadrant 2: things that are important but not urgent.
Quadrant 3: things that are not important but are urgent.
Quadrant 4: things that are 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 our time, doing things that are important but not urgent. Here’s where priories come into play. The results for living quadrant 2 are: 1. Control of your life
2. Balance
3. High performances
So, in what quadrant are you spending most of your time? The key is to shift as much time as possible into quadrant 2 and this is accomplished by planning. Spend more time planning and incorporating the most important things first, things that matter most. Keep your eyes on the prize and reach for it.

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 still 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 price.” Determine your desired price and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your price. Then set another price, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Begin with the achievement of your price in the mind; know where you are going. One price or goal you definitely need to establish for your-self is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school-that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity that you earned it with perfect honesty.

7 habits of highly successful teens
Habit 1
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 happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball is in their court. That they are the captain of their own ship; that they are in control. Control of their own decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions, goals, actions, and priories. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibility their obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decisions. Obey the rules. Obey the laws. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey your parents. Obey with exactness and great things will come to you. Be proactive and take the initiative.

7 habits of highly successful


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:

A successful student…

… Takes responsibility for his/her own learning  

Online learning can be a powerful, stimulant engaging experience for the student how can work and think independently. However, science 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 come 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 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 video or other activities, all of them require significant amount 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 PS writing center is available to assist you.

10. Successful students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learn that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to be in good control of their life.

An elemental truth: you will ether control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your on course or follow others. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no. 1 study skills program 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!
