"when i was teaching basketball, i urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece. the rule is even more important in life than basketball. you have to apply yourself eachday to become a little better. by applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each an ever day over the period of time, you will become a lot better. only then will you will be able to approach being the best you can be. it begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can ever make up for lost day."
if you try you hardest you will succeed if you stick with it that's why you should always stick with what your going to do!!!

5 tips for success
Tips 3-4
Tip 3: do research
Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critic pieces of countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledge sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiatives, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not consented study guides. Going the extra mile in your research elevates your achievement 10-fold.
Tip 4: use dictionary
Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to look them up. The results are well worth effort.

5 tips for success
Reading and writing go hand in hand. The better you understand a text, the more likely you are to successfully communicate your thoughts about it in writing. So it’s important to develop strong skills in both areas. With that in mind, here’s how to improve reading comprehension.
Tips 1-2
Tip: annotate
 Be an active reader. Instead of passively reading a text, take notes about important story elements. Key factorial information and significant ideas in text.
Tip 2: note the authors writing style
Every author writes with a purpose, using deliberate methods to successfully relate specific information to the audience. When you’re reading, look for patterns in the authors writing. For example, you may notice a repetition of key words, phrases or symbols—or the use of a distinct type of sentence structure. Authors employ these writing strategies to help’s readers comprehend a central argument theme, so be sure to explore how these techniques create meaning.

3. Set attainable goals
If you’re having trouble writing a 25-page paper for class because it seems like such a big job, don’t focus on that final number. Break the paper down and consider each section of your paper individually. You can handle any project in small chunks.
4. Find a social support network
Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed mentors can be teachers or family friends who can give you guidance and help you develop new skills. Counselors can help you with planning your courses and starting to explore colleges. You can also reach out to friends and peers who can motivate you by listening and sharing ideas.
