Life

"Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead." - Scottish Proverb

Everyone says, "How the time flies." The days go by and they are years, and the years finally become our whole life. Each daily portion can be wasted, or it can be a pleasure, before it is gone forever. If a bedtime review of the day concludes that we were too stressed, too busy, didn't accomplish anything, didn't have any fun, then it has been another lost piece of precious life.

Perhaps we are putting off our enjoyment until we have more time, or money, or some other improved condition. The trouble with that is that it might never happen, or it may be too long in coming.  It's so important to accept this time, this very minute, as something of tremendous value that will very soon be gone forever. There are many ways to ensure that we make the best of our time here on earth.

In our daily routine let's include time to enjoy others and thus ourselves. Look and wonder at the trees, fields and mountains, smell the flowers, hear the birds, and watch the clouds in the sky.

"This world, after all our science and sciences, is still a miracle; wonderful, magical and more, to whosoever will think of it." - Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881)

Face your problems bravely, confidently, and improve on your situation, no matter what state it be in. Be good to feel good. Be active and improve your mind. Laugh, relax, and sleep well.

Life is mostly froth and bubble;
Two things stand like stone:
Kindness in another's trouble,
Courage in our own.

Student Life

Student life is said to be a best period for any person. There are many ways by which students can be successful in their student life. Many professors recommend that goal setting should be a regular mental exercise. This enhances chance for success in academic career. Success depends on numerous factors no matter which school or college they joined. The first important factor is to make a list of priorities. This may depend on the way of life students have or the one yet to be attained. Unconsciously, you have already set priorities and lived them. This is the time students have to be aware and set definite goals. The next step is to set specific, measurable, and realistic long-term goals. It is not enough to realize that I want to do well in examination. It is the aim of all students.
Students must understand what is good or what is great or what is satisfactory. They can start by thinking on a grade they want to achieve. Is it 95% or 100%. They must be realistic and rational. If a student has never received a general grade higher than 85%, grade of 98% may be unrealistic, albeit admirable, but not impossible. They must also set short-term goals. It is important to study according to short term goal because long-term goals are impracticable to achieve without short-term goals. For example, if student want to get A grade in mathematics, he need short-term goals. They can do it by completing all assignments, attending all classes, finding a study partner, completing course readings on time, studying hard for the mid term and final exams. They must also set social, personal, and academic goals. Some of the social ambitions may include getting along with roommate, becoming more culturally aware, and learning to feel more comfortable in social situations. This will boost up students mood and they will more concentrate on studies after some entertainment. Personal goals include, exercising, keeping a balanced diet, or saving money for a future purchase.
It is important to be regular and revise goals set for studies and career. Students must continually strive to meet their goals. They can find examples of successful people who achieved their dream of becoming a general manager of a big company, or a successful sportsman such as Sachin Tendulkar. However, by prioritizing, by setting practical long-term goals and by achieving them through short-term goals, students can accomplish what they dream.
