“Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind.”

-B.C. Forbes

 

Honesty is a very important thing, perhaps the most important quality in a person, if a person is honest, then not much can go wrong, if I know a honest individual I will have no problem trusting them with whatever it might be, meeting a dead line, taking care of my little brother, or taking care of a personal materialistic item, I know they will be responsible and honor their word or our agreement, so why would I be worried? Honesty is a great thing for a person to have.

This is a very interesting quote, it applies to many things, it reminds me of something my coach tells us, Do not look at the score board, if we are down, lest take it goal by goal, when you do too much is when you go downhill fast, look at the big picture and help the big picture by avoiding the big problem, look at the little problems, what small things can you do that will make a big impact? Those or the important things that will help greatly in the long run, so what if your down by 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,20 goals, if you take it one by one, you CAN catch up! But if you try to score 5 goals in 1 minute, you’re setting yourself up for disaster and disappointment.

Time Management

8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands your time – classes, homework and activities – with some family help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs require multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting new ones, respond to e-mails while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrow’s produce while planning next week’s menu.

Someone said “Where you are, be there” Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here and there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.
