放弃一些我们的固执，狭隘，和一些优势的话，我们可能会得到更多。Persistence- Roy Kroc, founder of McDonald
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence
Talent cannot, nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent
Genius will not, unrewarded genius is almost a proverb
Education will not, the world is full of educated derelicts
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent
#To study well, you must:
(1) Have a clear, unwavering aim, focus on it. Do not be distracted by other things.Beware !
(2) Face your failure directly and openly. Be honest with yourself and others; if you do not understand, admit it AND find ways and means to understand, do not stop until you do. Do not ignore it, runaway from it.
(3) Take full and sole responsibility for your study. Don’t blame teacher, books, friends, environment or anything at all. You and you alone are responsible for your study. Others are mere helps or tools to achieve that purpose.
(4) Have good study habits: Read up before lecture instead of gossiping.
Pay full attention on the lecture, not how the lecturer dress,talk, walk etc Take notes, even if lecture notes are given.
Look through all notes taken and given during the day before sleeping.
Regular revision. Ask yourself honestly what have you learnt.
Turn off handphone during lecture and while doing revision.
Nothing else is more important than learning as much as possible.
Proper posture; do not study on bed.
No music when studying. #

How do you define a meaningful life? Follow these five powerful words to find out how to live life wisely
Laugh
Like they say, laughter is the best medicine. No illness or worries can weigh you down when laughter is all you need to keep your spirits high and keep you moving ahead. Whenever you are feeling moody, try to force a laugh. Although it might be going against your true mood at that moment, you never know how your laughter, though a forced one, can lead to more silly laughter. And more often than not, you would laugh at how silly you were. You can choose to live a day by being happy or not. Whatever it is, the day would still pass eventually. So why not make it a happy one?
It is always essential to reflect on the things you have done. Each night before you sleep, reflect on what you have done in the day. Have you accomplished something? Have you met the goals of the day? Or have you let the hours gone to waste? It is good to keep a personal diary. Reflect on your thoughts of the day. And write down your goals and future aspirations. When you have met them, reflect and track your own progression. Did you do your best? Is there any room for improvements?
Life has always been a journey of learning. You learnt since the day you were born, the day you opened your eyes to the world. You learnt about the colours in this world, the sounds of your surroundings, the place you grew up in, the people around you. There are so many things in life to learn. It is really more than what you learn in school. You need to observe and learn whenver you can. Life is short. And you only live once. Why not make full use of it by learning as much as you can? There is really a lot to learn everyday. Books, magazines, newspapers, television, internet. Pick up some hobbies or things you have strong interest in. Develop your own interest and passion in those field. Thinking of picking up the piano? Well, do it! Who knows you can tap into what you have learnt and make a living out of it!
Life really isn't all about work. The hectic societal life has forced us to be concerned about work and money, about promotion, recognition, and acknowledgements. While we do slog hard for all these, we must not forget about one thing. It is to relax. Try to have at least 8 hours of sleep a day. Research has shown that having sufficient sleep makes the mind work better the following day, as it rejuvenates and refreshes. Leave the weekends aside for some family and relationship activities, some quality social time with friends, or to indulge in some personal hobbies. If possible, go for a holiday! You deserve a break, you know it.
It is the most desired asset of all. It is a universal language. A life without love is a life not lived. It is true. We all want to feel appreciated by the people around us. We want our parents to be proud of us, family to be always around us for moral support, our partners or spouses to be there to share our happiness and sorrows. We all want to be loved unconditionally. We need to start from ourselves. Have you told somebody you love him or her? Have you been donating to charities and spreading love to others? Have you neglected someone because of busy work schedule? Have you forgotten to love? To love and to be loved, that is the greatest thing that one can ever learn.
Therefore, it makes no sense to ask if the survival of any one person or even the whole of humankind matters in some objective sense. A god-like Being may make judgements concerning the value of humankind, but the physical universe makes no such judgements. It is living beings who make judgements and have purposes -- and rarely with unanimity.
Given that judgements and purposes are only attributes of living beings, whose purpose is most important? The government's? Your mother's? Your own? The last answer may seem selfish and self-centered, but whether you acknowledge it or not, you have ultimate responsibility for deciding what purposes are most important to you (as opposed to important to someone else -- the only alternative). It isn't hard to consciously or unconsciously delegate this responsibility -- and others often attempt to make delegation easy (if not obligatory) -- but no one can truly take this responsibility from you.
How important to you is the on-going survival of humankind? How important to you is the on-going survival of your country? How important to you is the on-going survival of your friends and family? And how important is it to you that you remain alive -- and how long would you like to remain alive?
Suicide counseling is primarily for people who are undecided about the value of life. The suicide counselor can attempt to remind or inform the despairing person of the potential pleasures of life -- or attempt to suggest ways to end pain and depression. But a person lacking the will to live usually has no motivation to find a reason to live. The suicide counselor is helpless to change a person who innately experiences life as being something negative -- helpless to find goals & values that would be meaningful. Many (if not most) people will eagerly choose death as a means to stop physical or emotional pain if the pain is intense enough and if the prospect of the pain ending seems bleak.
Well in short we have to live our life to the fullest. Or else we will regret it. Do it while u can. Never give up.
