Student Success Statement

“Stop worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what’s happening right this moment.”

I strongly agree with this statement because you need to focus on the present instead of thinking what will happen. If you focus on the present moment then you will most likely succeed in the future. If you start thinking about the future instead of the present then you will not be as successful if you would of focus since the beginning. For example, when you’re playing a sport focus on the game and don’t think about anything else. If you worry the team is better in will distract you from winning because in your head you gave up already.
