6 Ways Be Successful In School by Toceenay(m): 10:41pm On Dec 25, 2014
Being successful in school comes with a lot of patience and motivation. Unfortunately there are so many distractions that can come your way, but you need to be determined and focused. If you want to become a successful student, then you have to start learning how to say no to these distractions. It may be hard and tiring during the first year in school, but the hard work always pays off at the end. When you graduate you want to graduate with honours and good grade, you want to also be remembered as a diligent school worker. For you to achieve all these, you need to put the following things in mind.
1. Make good use of your time. Time waits for no one, as the saying goes. So, for you to make good use of your time then you need to have a schedule. Since you have an agenda or school time-table, then you need to schedule your time base on this. Before you go to bed every night, check through your time-table to know the number of courses you are to attend the following day, your time schedule will surely be based on this. Plan in advance what you need to do each day and make sure you keep to time on each plan. Use your agenda to stay organized and follow through with your plans. Also, use your agenda to set time limits. If you are spending much time on a thing and you know you have more important things to do, stop, put it aside, move on to other things. Come back to it later. Remember, time waits for no one.
2. Socialized, hang out with smart friends. You cannot work all 24 hours a day from Monday to Friday without having to socialize and hang out. Don’t be a nerd, balance is the key. School is important, so also is good times. Participate in activities that will develop your mental skills. School is your number one priority, nonetheless, it’s important to have fun and lots of extra-curricular activities. As you are doing this, hang out with smart friends. If you're hanging with people who don't support your desire to be successful, no doubt, they will surely drag you down.

3. Figure out your best time to study.
You cannot be successful in school
without having a personal time to study.
What you gain in lectures can never be
enough for you to get A’s, so you need
to have a personal time for study. Do not
wait until exam time-table is out before
you start reading. What you read
consistently will surely stay in your long
time memory. As you follow your
personal reading time, do not focus on a
single or some selected courses, either
because you like them or they interest
you, rather cover all your courses one
after the other. Most importantly, know
the best time for you to read and
assimilate. Some people enjoy reading at
night, because they stay more focus by then, some prefer early
morning, when they just wake up with fresh brain, while some
enjoy reading during the day. Either way, know you self and the
best time for you to enjoy reading. Whichever way, do not
deprive yourself a better sleep. Getting enough sleep will
always keep you in good shape.


Don’t procrastinate. Procrastination will
only pill-up your home-works or assignments
and make school difficult for you to enjoy.
Do things immediately and at ones. When
you are working on two or more assignment
and one is difficult for you, instead of
procrastinating, move the other ones and
finish up. With this you will always get things
done before the due date.


5. Ask when you don’t
understand. Nobody
is an ocean of
knowledge, so you
can’t know
everything. If you
knew everything
about the topic you're
studying, you
wouldn't be there, and
that’s why you are in school to learn. Ask your questions, that is
what best students do. Don’t care if your mate mock you, most
times they benefit from questions they never ask. “It’s far more
important to know how to ask the right questions than to know
the right answers” (Tony Wagner in his book The Global
Achievement Gap).


Have a goal and never give up. People have
different reason for going to school, some are there to
get that degree they've dreamed of for years. For
some, to get a promotion at work. Some people just
want to learn something they've always found
fascinating. For some students, because their dad
always wanted them to study. So ask yourself, why am
I in School? Knowing this will help you to set your
goals and work towards achieving them. It’s better to
write down your goals in your diary to see it often.
People who write down their goals in a specific way
achieve more of them than people who let their goals
float around just in their heads. Set a target for
yourself (Second class upper or …..). At times, it may be
difficult to achieve a goal, but never give up if you really want
to be successful in school. By the time you work hard and
achieve them you will be proud of yourself, and likewise your
friends too.

Before we dive into the list, let’s first talk about what to look for when buying an office chair for a heavier person. The first thing to consider is weight capacity. Look for a chair that can support your body weight and size. This is especially important if your weight is over 250 lbs. A chair that’s rated for 350 lbs or higher is typically a good choice. https://allaboutheavyperson.com/best-cane-for-heavy-person/
