Student Success Statement

“To be great—concentrate.”

-Orson Swett Marden

I agree with Orson. If you want to be great, you must concentrate. You must have concentration in whatever it is you are doing to succeed. You cannot be distracted on something else and you need to focus. For example, if you are about to swing for a homerun that might possibly win the game, then you must concentrate. If you are distracted, then you will miss and lose. Concentrate and you will be successful.

Student Success Statement

“The first law of success…. Is concentration; to bend all the energies to one point, and to go directly to that point, looking neither right nor the left.”

William Matthews

I agree with William. You have to concentrate in order to succeed. You can’t go anywhere being distracted and going all over the place, you need to stay focused and try your hardest. For example, when you are going to shoot a basket, you need to concentrate on that one thing and focus, your mind can’t be on something else. If you focus and concentrated hard enough, then you would make that shot. It’s really simple to focus, you just have to put yourself to do it.
