Environment

Schooling


Stop making yourself worst/ stupid.
- Do not let somebody enter your life without your permission.
- Stop fantasizing someone you want. If you found yourself fantasizing, divert yourself onto listening to rock music while reading, play games. Never entertain those fantasies.
- Read a lot. Fundamentals, Med-surg etc. do not let your mind be vacant which tend you to think wasted thoughts.
- If you did something unusual, and you found it affects other people or it affects your self-esteem, do blogs to express yourself and try to forget it afterwards, talk to God and divert yourself on something worthy activities. Limit yourself on drinking alcohol and smoking. It doesnt give so much relief. (Smoking should be atleast once a month or just cease it into your life)
- Stop comparing yourself to others. You are different from them. Just do the best of you.
- Stop m..ting. Just to have some pleasure and the like! If you did, cut yourself.


Be happy. Enjoy your life to the fullest.
- Relax and Sleep. But limit it. Do not be too lazy. Follow the scheduled plan for the day. If you didnt follow - DO NOT SLEEP until you have done what supposed to be done.
- Play every week. Enjoy it. Either Saturday or Sunday. (Have a schedule for play)
- If ever you need to use the computer, use it wisely and as needed! Do not just use it for chat. Remove YM in your programs!
- Limit texting and chatting! Loading of cellphones should be every other week or once a month.
- If you want some change, make sure you can stand for it.
- If you gave suggestions, make sure that you have the capability to do it! Never suggest something that you cant prove you can do.
- Accept your faults. But do not make/ do too much mistakes.
- NEVER REGRET on something you have done. If you did something that resulted into a worst situation, still never regret. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS. Be responsible enough to face it even it is worst and even you became worst!
- Always be yourself. Never pretend to anyone that you want this and that eventhough you actually doesnt like it.
- Limit yourself on being so narcisstic/ Self-conscious. Stop minding anyone's feeling. Try to confirm to someone what is he/she actually feels with what you have done, for you to stop predicting/minding something that will surely makes you feel guilty or worthless. But always be sensitive to others with regards to your actions.
- If you did something, you did it because you want it. Not because you wanted to prove to everyone that you are better than others on doing that-something.
- Stop comparing yourself to others. You are different from them. Just do the best of you.
- Do not be too arrogant. Stop being so boastful. Always put yourself on the ground. Trust God in everything you do. Be obedient to Him and to your parents. Always put into your mind that God is everywhere, always with you. He sees you when you are down, He see everything in you, so be careful in your actions.


Study seriously!
- Always be guided with your planned schedule for the day. If you didnt follow that planned schedule, do not go to sleep!
- How to be motivated? Read and reflect to the "daily bread" for the day. (Include this on your everyday plan)
- Remain on-focus. Never allow anyone to enter your world. Do not entertain fantasies etc. FOCUS!
- If you found yourself suffocated, slow down!. Listen to music and relax for about 5-15 mins ONLY.
- If you got low grade on your quizes or unit exam, never regret on what you've answered. Think positively - you know you still lack basic information and again read the devotion for the day, talk to God and evaluate yourself. Then read and do what supposed to be done.
- Being so grade-conscious? ---- Remember these: (adapted from a friend of Mr. R. Fulghum)

• The race is not always to the swift, or to the battle to the strong, but you better bet that way. (It is not always the grades that matter, but better be guided that you should maintain your grades in a rightful manner - in a way that you study and learn the basics and didnt cheat, that's why you got good grades).
• Place your bet between turning the other cheek and enough is enough already. (If you did your best on studying the lesson and still you were not able to get what you want, always put in mind that you did your best to understand and digest the lesson and that actions are enough.)
• Place your bet between haste-makes-waste and he-who-hesitates-is-lost. (Go on what you think is right even it'll turn into worst,and if you regret on doing that then you lost, so never regret on doing something that may help you become a better and competent student/person.)
• About winning: It isn't important. What really counts is how you play the game. (About having good grades, it is not good grades that matters, it is how you got it - you have studied and then you've learned, you did your best and didnt cheat! - that's what matters.
• About losing: It isn't important. What really counts is how you play the game. (When having low grade/ failures in exams or quizes, that isnt matter, what matter is how you studied and how you did your best, how you did your duty as a student. If you got low grades because you didnt study, then you deserve it. Same as when you got good grades because you did study and focused on your lesson. But when you did study but still you failed, then think of it as a challenge. There are still lot of information you need to know and that is why you got low grade. And do not be so depressed. Talk to God and ask for help/advise. Do what He says.)
• About playing the game: Play to win. (About studying, study to learn and to get good grades, not to fling or to lose and eventully not to fail) STUDY SERIOUSLY!!!!
• (Always put your feet on the ground when you won.)

- Never forget to ask for some assistance, from your classmates or friends or professors. Always remember that you do not know everything and sometimes you cannot do some tasks alone. So better ask for someone's help!


Some credo adapted from Mr. R. Fulghum's All I Really Need to Know I learned in Kindergarten:
- Share everything.
- Play fair.
- DONT HIT PEOPLE.
- Put things back where you found them.
- clean up your own mess.
- Don't take things that aren't yours
- Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
- Wash your hands before you eat.
- LIVE A BALANCED LIFE - Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and danceand play and work everyday some. (Feel free everyday)
- Take a nap every afternoon. (after school)

and

- DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU THINK! (What you have thought for now may not be the same for an hour after or tomorrows).

I hope I could maintain this. Help me Oh Lor God.
