Qualities of a Good Student (7 Habits for Highly Effective Teens):
Be Proactive I was in charge of myself, followed directions, and kept a “can do” attitude.
Begin With The End in Mind I set goals, planned ahead, was prepared, thought about how choices would affect my future (positive or negative) and made good choices for myself.
Put First Things First I spent my time on the things that are most important. I stayed focused, did the things I had to do before doing the things I wanted to do, or minimized distractions.
Think Win-Win I worked together with other people to solve a problem. I was kind and thought about the needs of others.
Seek First To Understand, Then Be Understood I listened to others without interrupting, raised my hand, waited my turn, didn’t blurt out, or tried to understand other people’s views or feelings.
Synergize I got along with other people, worked well in a group, used the strength of others to help me, or came up with a better solution that I could have alone.
Sharpen The Saw I balanced my time well, took care of my body and mind, or learned how to become a better person.
