Try thinking of the pressure of testing as practice for the work world’s own explosive situations. You could someday find yourself meeting tight deadlines, speaking with irate customers, wielding a scalpel or handling dangerous chemicals.

Preparation removes fear. When you are prepared you will not fear. Preparation helps you maintain your cool under pressure. Preparation generates energy and enthusiasm; therefore, prepare and your coolness under pressure is sure to be abound.

  Initiative
                                                5 of 10

Initiative is creativity. Inventiveness. Originality, ingenuity, imagination. Every time you respond in class, every time you choose your own research topic, every time you put together your own inspiration of a piece of literature, you take initiative. And future employers value can-do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own course through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant people are self-starters who don’t procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do and do it. They don’t wait to be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.

                                                   3 of 10
Every time your class breaks into groups to tackle a challenge. You build teamwork skills. In college, you’ll continue to have these opportunities to practice voicing your opinions. Listening and responding to others, and reaching compromises. By the time you leave college, you can be an expert in this important workplace skill.
Together
Everyone
Achieves
More

Individually you can achieve so much, but when you work with others for a common cause, the same objectives, you can accomplish a tremendous amount more, you synergize your talents. Knowledge and skills with those whom you work. All members of the team are edified together, a type of definition you can’t obtain by working alone.

Education is a marathon—not a sprint

This unknown quote makes me think about the future because you need to take nice and slow to enjoy and make yourself better rather than taking it all fast
