With it you gain direction and intentionality; F.O.C.U.S in the intentional pursuit of academic excellence. But focus does not come by accident, but it is essential for academic excellence. It is the difference between random and linear motion. While linear motion is a state of progression from one point to another in a definite direction towards a predetermined goal---academic excellence; random motion seem to also make the same movement or progression haphazardly in an incomplete manner with no predetermined goals and measurable outcome to show that …show more content…

This is the peak of excellence. At this point you are operating at genius level with enormous power reserves. You are unstoppable. Your focus is on a specific goal—becoming a high-flyer. Most examiners agree that: “the purpose of exam is not to fail students. The purpose is to test students understanding and knowledge of the subject or topic. You need follow the trend of exam papers to observe the pattern of questions being set from time to time; year to year. He equally said that, a careful study of past questions over the past decade for student sitting for WAEC or any exam will, at least, guide an observant student as to what form the questions would take in order to prepare accordingly.” You see it clearly, predict it with accurate precision and you never get tired working and walking towards it. When you resume school or a new class, you are preparing for tests and exams having your focus on good grades and at the same time studying with past questions for a particular subject, you gather momentum, energy for good grades with enough reserves for other subjects—all at a genius

This shows how committed teachers are to developing good learning environments for students and helping them succeed. However, Dr. Francis Broadway offered a different perspective on the goals of teachers. He stated that teachers work to create obedient members of society that comply to the ideas that society deems to be important. I believe that this goal can be interpreted to the same as the others, helping a student succeed.
Anh T Vo Dr. Oxendine Engl 1301-81057 18 December, 2015 Reflection Before my English 1301 class started, I made a commitment for myself that I would get an A in this class. In order to achieve this goal, I make some short-term goals, try my best, and consider my behavior. All actions and thoughts, which I have made in this course, give me a fresh result as the end of the semester is coming. Being an ambitious student offers me opportunities to keep encourage myself study hard and believe that my effort will be paid off. Before this course started, I bought a required book.

This is transferable skill that can be applied with any
The focus of college or any education is about the experiences acquired through the process of learning. However, for the majority of society the new focus is now on the degree, which to many, represent the key to success. Hence, students now equate knowledge and intellect as something that can be readily purchased. Yet, the key to success lies within our actions. This very concept is derived from the Hsun Tzu’s short reading titled “Encouraging Learning”.
Daily challenges move us in the direction of huge success that may currently seem distant. When we are enthusiastic about finishing our goals every single day, we are slowly taking steps that are taking us to our larger idea of success. “I don’t run away from a challenge because I am afraid. Instead, I run towards it because the only way to escape fear is to trample it beneath your foot.’’ -Nadia
