Accepting who you are today and deciding if you can improve any aspect of yourself or your environment is the starting point. The textbook shares three rules for success that you can apply to your academic, personal, and professional lives.
Write about how those three success rules apply to one of the following: your academic life, your personal life, or your professional life.
Academic- If you dont try you wont get anywhere. Study study study is the only way I see that we can make it. It's all about dedicating yourself into it.
ReplyDeletePersonal- Being someone who is responsible is something we HAVE to do or else we just cant do anything. Take my bad leg as an example, I was being silly with a friend and I didn't stop to think about the consequences and I ended up poping it out. Now I have to be persistent to be able to go to therapy (a VERY PAINFUL ONE) and get my knee to be able to go all the way straight out. Everyone has to be reminded of what is safe and what you can do. I was trying to pick up something he could and prove him wrong and show him that I could do it too. Thing is I coulnt because my ligaments are weak. Know your weaknesses.
Professional Life- In professional life responsibility is number 1! I work for a company named vision works and we work with peoples eyes and we have to be careful and be responsible for our mistakes. I am still in training so for now I am able to stay back and learn. When I do get to try and practice new things I ask for tips and take in any mistakes to make myself better. When I was first hired they told me it was going to be the hardest job i would ever have. So far they have not disappointed me.

ReplyDeleteBeing responsible is one of the most important things in life that you have to learn. I typically have trouble being responsible with my money, it is a very bad habit to just spend all of your money all at once and not think about if you will need something a week from then. Responsibility is a very hard task to learn but it is necessary to have.
Academic - you have to give your 100% so you can be successful in life and it takes a lot of responsibility.
ReplyDeletePersonal - personal responsibility is tough because you need to learn how to say o to some things so you can take care of more important things. I can ay this is a big issue for me I have a hard time saying no.
Professional Life - this should be on top of your list for most important to be responsible because if you work In places where people lives can be in danger if you do something not responsible that can hunt you for the rest of your life because is going to be hard for other places to give you a chance at their company.
o being responsible is a big deal something you need to do well.

Academic- You need to make sure you stay responsible. If you fall behind, don't study or even ask questions it can hold you back from reaching your full potential. You need to try your best, so you can get yourself far.
ReplyDeletePersonal- Personal responsibility is all about taking care of yourself and knowing what you do, is always up to you. Taking responsibility for the things you do is important because it shows you are aware of the things you do, which is also a sign of maturity.
Professional- A persons professional life should be one of the main priorities because this is usually how they make a living, and the source of what holds many people and families together. In your professional life you need to make sure you are responsible, because if other people are going to hire you, and if you are going to work for them, you need to make sure you always stay on task and focused.

Academically: showing up to school everyday is the only way that you're going to be able to learn the curriculum, and be prepared for any upcoming assignments that and have a better opportunity to ask questions if you don't understand the material.
ReplyDeletePersonal: Actively participating in events that are surrounding you, is just as important as in school or work. If you drown yourself in only work and school, then you will suffocate yourself on not having a personal life. Finding balance, will make you a better student, employee and an overall better person.
Professional: Doing my best work while I am at my jobsite is crucial in anyone's line of work. The least you do, then the more rework you'll create for yourself, and the colleagues around you, which can create unnecessary stress. When you do your best, your peers can give you recognition, and that sometimes makes you want to strive harder on going above and beyond for the company.\

Academic- Being responsible for your school work is very important. sometimes we do become overwhelmed and begin to slack off, but continuing this action could result in failure and cause us to fall behind from being successful.
ReplyDeletePersonal- We must commit to ourselves to be successful. some people chose work over their home life and do not realize it, until their families start to fall apart. paying attention to school and work will be a result that leads to unhappiness that will lead to failure.
Professional- The way we present ourselves in the work world is really important. A boss wants an employee who is responsible, respectable, trustworthy, and flexible. when I have a job I will be a committed employee and do may hardest to get the job done by or before the due date.

Academic- Showing up for school is like showing up for work. If you don’t arrive to school your grades will drop just like not arriving to work your check will drop also. Not coming to school will get you dropped from your class. Just like if you don’t go to work to will get fired. When you are at school every day you will learn skills that will help you pass your class and maybe be useful in the real world. Just like work if you fulfill your schedule and arrive on time you will be taught new skills that may help you with advancement.
ReplyDeletePersonal- Showing up to family & friend events such as celebrations and holidays is a way to keep that support you need at times. I know sometimes it’s hard to make time with work and school but to have a time to relax is good also to a certain extent. It helps you experiment with the communication skills you learn in school. This can even make you a better person to get along with.
Professional- Showing up to work and on time is very important in the real world. It’s kind of a sign of respect to your co-workers and employer that you are their not to make anyone’s job harder. You have to enjoy what you are doing to put one hundred percent into it. So if you see yourself not doing this then maybe you might want to explore other options. This can lead to problem with co-workers and employers more stress that you don’t need.

Academically life- Showing up to school and class is the most important thing to do when wanting to go to school and get a diploma or degree. Its very important also because basically if you don't show up you fail.

Academic- The three rules are show up, do your best work, and participate actively. I believe they are the main focus to achieving my goals. We make choices in our everyday life the choices we make will affect our life. If we set goals we need to have motivation to finish or meet our goals. Complaining and making excuses will not help us in obtaining our dreams. I believe that we need to attend class daily, so that we don't miss any new information. It is also important to be do your best work. Staying active in school with the organizations can also help students because they are connected to the student body. Students can develop a study group to help them in achieving their academic goals.

This three success rules can apply to my personal life, because if I'm not present for myself meaning if I really do not know what I want to do with my life and what I want for my future then I'm not being present for myself and most likely not present for others as well and mentally that can really hinder my professional life and academic life as well as. And if I'm not trying my best to better myself mentally ,physically and in my academics, and if I’m not striving to do my best and really succeed then I would get nowhere in life and I wouldn't even get close to those goals that I want to accomplish. And if I do not actively participate with myself and with what is going on around me then I would mostly likely be lost in life or not really get the full concept of what I'm meant to do or be in this life, because after finding yourself then you can truly succeed in life because if you know what you are capable of doing then you can push yourself go beyond your limits and really make a difference in yourself and that is how I can truly live a successful live.

Academic- Your academic life is really important because it is the thing that decides if you graduate, and start the career you want to have. you have to study and do good so you can pass and get good grades.

Academic- I believe we can use the success rules in our academic life to be successful by using them to find a good study habit and and improve our grades with in the course. I also believe we can use them in order to improve our work ethic and become more well rounded students.
ReplyDeleteProfessional life- We can use these rules in our professional life by using them to improve our social skills to communicate with people throughout our professional skills in order to get further in your success. I also think these can be used in order improve work ethic and boost your professional skills.
Personal Life- We can use these rules in our personal life by developing a skill we are not accustom to and that will help us get further in not only our academic life but as well as our professional life.

One of the areas in my life that I would want to work on is my academic life. I feel that I have failed to even do the first step in the Three Success Rules. And in order to accomplish that you have to have the motivation to make time to show up in class so that's one step. The second step I feel that I do not always show my best in my academic work and just do it half way or as much is I think I can. Just by sitting in the front of the task and doing all the exercise that are not for grades but will help show in the actually graded work. Last but not least Is to participate in my academic like by answering question that are being ask and putting in effort by participating to do a problem or to in front of the class

Academic- This is one of the most important steps in ones lives. We need to have an education to have a better life. For some people it is really hard to get in to college. For example, me It took me ten years to finnlay get in to college for the first time. I am putting my best effort so I can graduate.
ReplyDeleteProfessional life- here we need to be responsible to get a good job where we feel comfortable and enjoy what we do. Then we need to be able to keep ths job so we will not go from job to job.
Personal life- Family is the most important thing for me. Knowing that they can count on me and that I can count on them for what ever we need comforts me because I will always have them there for what ever I need. Dedicating time to the is also important because we need to bond. Yes we have work and school and other things in life but we need to spend time with the family as well. That is what is most important for me.
