How to take on
college studying
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.

Habit 7
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.”
2)
Mind thinks 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.

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.’’

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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:

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.

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!
