Being prosperous in life isn't void of challenges but how you choose to deal with your obstacles matters a lot. Here is an inspiring story for you:
'His name is Sylvestar Stallone. One of the BIGGEST and Most famous American Movie superstars. Back in the day,Stallone was a struggling actor in every definition. At some point,he got so broke that he stole his wife's jewellery and sold it. Things got so bad that he even ended up homeless. Yes,he slept at the New York bus station for 3 days. Unable to pay rent or afford food. His lowest point came when he tried to sell his dog at the liquor store to any stranger. He didn't have money to feed the dog anymore. He sold it at $25 only. He says he walked away crying. Two weeks later,he saw a boxing match between Mohammed Ali and Chuck Wepner and that match gave him the inspiration to write the script for the famous movie, ROCKY.
Every student would love to make good
grades in school and be the boss in class. But success does not come so easily - it has to be worked
out.
These six steps will invariably help you to attain academic success:
1. GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD: Always be in good terms with God. You can achieve this by serving God in spirit and in truth. Know that, one without God is minority - but one with God is majority.
2. SELF CONFIDENCE: You can achieve whatever goal you set for yourself if you trust in yourself. In other words, you must have confidence in yourself and believe you can achieve your self target. Self esteem is
good but it is not enough to give you success.
3. BE AN INQUISITIVE LEARNER: You have to develop an inquisitive attitude towards learning. Aristotle, the great philosopher, opined that a man of knowledge is a man who has, at least, something to say
about everything. The spirit of inquisition encourages academic versatility.
4. ADOPT A GOOD LEARNING APPROACH: You should adopt a good learning approach and an organized reading style. Do not read for the sake of examination alone, also read for the sake of knowledge. Scholars have
argued that students who study for at least 3hours daily end up graduating with a first class result.
5. PHYSICAL EXERCISE: The importance of sports to the well-being of every individual is inestimable. It is often said that a healthy mind can be found in a healthy body. Exercise, inter-alia, help us to be physically and mentally alert. It enhances our power of comprehension and increases our power of retention.
Remember the popular saying that 'all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
6. BE HARDWORKING: To achieve academic success, you must be studious because indolence is inimical to success. Convince yourself that your future, and invariably, your life, depends on how much effort you put
into your studies. For a great success, you have to go an extra-mile.
