“Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence, is the key to unlocking our potential.”
Liane Cordes
I think that this means that giving up is not on of your choices you need to keep on trying until you get it and you will be succeed.

Research with attitude
Conduct your research with the attitude of a skeptic.
As you examine websites for clues that they're trustworthy, ask these questions:
·     Who wrote the web page? If you can't identify the individual or organization responsible for the information, do not use it.
·     What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?
·     Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?
·     What is the website's purpose? Look for motives –like selling products or winning votes—that could result in biased.
·    Is the information accurate? Is it up-to-date?
·    Where did the author get this information?

Using the Web Wisely
Thanks to the Web, information is easy to find. However, it’s also easy to post something online. Anyone can do it.
You've probably used the internet to do research for a paper, to help you decide which product to buy, or to form an opinion about current events. Looking up information is fast convenient. But when you do online research, it’s important to find sites you can trust.
Many websites claim to have the facts, but are full of errors. Others present information in a biased way- they only give one side of an argument. How can you tell a reliable form an unreliable one? Also, it critical that you post online that which is decent and appropriate, never anything pornographic, vulgar, indecent, out of taste, untruthful, or obscene.

 “When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bullseye is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim, improve yourself.”
Gilbert Arland

All your mistakes, all your success, and everything you do are because of you. You are to the one turn to for own actions.

Recite

At the end of each section, look up from the text and in your own words recite an answer to your question for that section. Then write down your answer. Be sure to provide examples that support it.

Now repeat the Question, Read and Recite steps for each section of the chapter. First ask a question for the next section. Then read to find the answer. Finally, recite the answer in your own words and jot it down. The written questions and answers can help you study in the future.

Review

After completing the chapter, review your notes. Identify the main points by looking for the most important idea in each section. Recite, or write, a brief summary of the assignment.

REFLECTION


“THE FIRST LAW OF SUCCESS…. IS CONCENTRATION; TO BEND ALL THE ENERGIES TO ONE POINT, AND TO GO DIRECTLY TO THAT POINT, LOOKING NEITHER TO THE RIGHT NOR THE LEFT.”

Question
As you survey the text, ask question for each section .Ask what, why, how, when, who and where questions as they relate to the content. Here’s how you can create questions:
·       Turn in the title, headings or subheadings into questions.
·       Rewrite the questions at the end of the chapter or after each subheading in your own words.
Write down your questions. Questions help you pay attention, understand the text better and recall the information more easily later on.
Read
Read one section of the chapter at a time, actively looking for an answer to your question for that section. Pay attention to bold and italicized text that authors use to make the important points.
Be sure to review everything in that section, including tables, graphs and illustrations—these features can communicate an idea more powerfully than written text.
