Master Secrets To Becoming A Distinguished University

Master Secrets To Becoming A Distinguished University or College Student by Bheki Shabangu
in Education / College and University (submitted 2010-03-27)

A study by Harvard University found that when a person gets a job, 85 percent of the time, it is because of their attitude. Only 15 percent of the time, because of how smart they are and how many facts and figures they know. As a university or college student, what is your attitude towards your future? Your attitude will always be a determinant of your altitude in life. A great future and a distinguished life will not merely happen. It will require that you develop a clear vision and set goals that will take closer to your dreams.

In 1952, the same university discovered that only 3 out of 100 graduates had written down a clear list of their goals. In years later, their follow up study showed that 3 percent of the graduating class had accomplished more financially than the remaining 97 percent of the class. Those 3 percent were the same graduates who had written down their goals. When you write down your goal, statisticians say, you increase a chance of obtaining it by 90 percent.

Helen Keller who was born blind and deaf, said, "The greatest tragedy to befall a person is to have sight but lack vision". What is a vision? A vision is a preferred future. It is a clear mental picture of what could be. What is your vision? What do you see yourself doing in the future? As a university or college student, I urge you to dream big. Begin to elevate the picture of your future. You can't think of catching mice and expect to catch lions. Vision is of paramount importance. It translates into purpose. Your vision is your future. A person without a vision is a person without a future. A person without a future will always go back to his past. It is critical that you develop a clear and succinct vision for your life. Why do you exist? Your vision should be written down. When you write it down, it forces you to clarify it. Bear in mind that your vision will attract critics. Never hand it over to their hands. Visions often die at the hands of the critics. Critics are spectators not players. Critical people are often disappointed people. Remember, there has never been a monument built to a critic. Critics want you to come down to their level. They feel intimidated by your vision. Anyone unhappy over your success or progress is your enemy. Swiftly disconnect yourself before they poison you. In all their attempts to frustrate your progress, they will fail. They will not succeed.

A man or woman of vision is unstoppable. They understand that what is inside them is greater than everything else around them. I dare you to dream big! If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it. A dynamic life is always fired by a vision. A clearly defined vision is one of the master secrets to becoming a distinguished university or college student.
