"Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable."
Peter F. Drucker 

reflection: i believe what Peter is trying to say is that you should always do the right thing no matter what. for example if a person is trying to get a job and she or he has to sleep with the boss, this is where you  take action. if you choose to sleep with the boss then you are just doing what is acceptable to get that job. but if you say no to the boss then that is the right thing to do and the best. 

Initiative

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 interpretation of a piece of literature you take initiative. And future values can do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own courses 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.

Problem solving goes far beyond your math textbook. Every assignment is an opportunity to weigh all possible solutions carefully and choose the one you think is best. As a working professional you’ll be solving problems regularly, whether it’s fixing a bug in a computer program or overcoming budget shortfalls. Problem solving situation occur extensively and frequently; therefore be ready when they come. When problems or challenges occur some people look at them at negative experiences as a crisis.  These people are the ones who live day by day with gloom and negativism in their attitudes. But the really successful people are cheerful and optimistic, are those who look at problems as opportunities to learn grow expand their horizon and make new discoveries, they look on the bright side of things and live happy lives.

"Education is a marathon not a sprint"
anon


reflection: what the person is trying to say is you should know the difference between wanting to actually learn and focus and take a while to learn things rather than to just get an A in the class and copying everyone's work. for example college, i want to go for my PhD however i must realize that school is going to be a hassle and take into consideration that classes might be hard. i will sacrifice my time and any other time i can to learn the material. you can't just read it once and say oh i don't get it. You must keep thinking positive  getting my degree is a marathon, which means it will take a while. it isn't a sprint where you can easily get it. 

Team work skills

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 opinion, 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

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 edification you can’t obtain by working alone.
