Succeeding consistently is not accidental, hence there are principles that successful students consciously or unconsciously follow, 

🎓 SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS FORM A HEALTHY STUDY HABIT: Most successful students know that it would be counter-productive to study only during exams, 

so they start studying from the beginning of the semester & they study consistently, some join study groups too, 

but from my experience, personal study is highly effective, and this can be combined with group study. 

In fact a student who does not read on their own but only depends on lectures is already positioning him/herself below excellence.

🎓 SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS ARE MOTIVATED: I didn't say they listen to motivational speakers! Doing that is good, but if you don't have a reason why you want to succeed, you may do things that will keep you from succeeding. 

Your WHY, is your biggest motivation. Write down at least 10 reasons why you want to succeed.

🎓 SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS KEEP GOOD ASSOCIATIONS: Mind those you associate with, if you want to be successful. The truth is people want you to be like them consciously or unconsciously, 

If you associate with those who don't want to make A, chances are that you'll get infected with their mindset.

🎓 SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS HAVE TARGETS: Action and reaction are equal and opposite, you can't target at C, put in C effort and expect an A.

 Successful students have very high targets from the start of the semester. Some target at 90% from the onset, you won't be surprised when they finally score 77%.

🎓 SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS DO THEIR ACADEMIC WORKS WELL: No matter what you do, if you don't do your academic work, every other thing is a waste of time and effort.

They do their assignments, tests, practicals, exams, presentations, etc. and they do these very well.

If you are a student, always do your academic work and do it well.

🔖Wealth they say is determined by one's mindset.

It's pathetic how many complain about lack of money, 🙄

🔖Yes it is true that we may not have as much money as we want at times, but should our attitude be complaint & nagging?

😎Complaints help no one. What you need to do is the exact opposite, yes, 

🔖be grateful that you're able to realize that you need more of something, because this is the starting point of success in many spheres.

💰Learn as much as you can about wealth, and the art of money making.

💰Learn new skills

💰Be open to new opportunities.

💰Plan your financial destiny.

💰Invest your time, energy, money, etc. into building yourself to the person you want to be

💰Start investing in good assets once you start making money

💡It's not all about money, it's more of wealth & income-generating assets.

 🧿There are those that even if you take away all the money they have, they'll gain back much  money from their assets in just few days.

'hope you got value from this, you can share for the benefit of others. Thank you.❤

Should you believe a health information?

From who?

And why?

Please read this 👇 to the end.

Many years ago (about 350 years before Christ), Aristotle the great and famous Greek philosopher said a "spider has six legs", he thus classified it as an insect.

For many centuries, everybody believed that, no one dared to challenge the idea.

Until a curious scientist discovered that a spider does not have six legs, but eight.

Aristotle also, once stated that heavy objects always fell to the ground faster than light objects.

Many people believed this for nearly 2000 years.

Guess what. Your guess is as good as mine: a scientist also did an experiment that showed that the statement was wrong, a heavy and a light object was dropped together from the top of a tall building, it was seen that the both objects reached the ground at the same time.

Today, scientists will not accept a theory or idea that is not empirical.

There are so many health fads, fallacies and misconceptions out there.

How would you know which or who to believe?

The key is to only believe health information that has an empirical basis.

In some parts of Nigeria, it is believed that a pregnant woman should not eat snails, if she does, the baby will have an excess amount of saliva. Not only is this false, this can deprive her of some vital nutrients if snail is what she can afford or what she likes.

There are many other beliefs held by people that are both detrimental to their health, and lacks an empirical basis.

So who should you believe?

Although this is not a comprehensive thread on where to get reliable health information, the following sources are recommended:

💟 Competent health professionals such as Doctors, Health Educators, Nurses, Pharmacists, Nutritionists, etc. 

There is a good reason to believe expert opinion.

 Scientific journals, health organizations & some online sources can also be helpful.

The following are the key lessons to learn from the book:

💥 Go into a business for which you have passion.

💥 Start small- some people are waiting for the right time to start (big), but that right time never comes, the capital or something else kept holding them down, start small (with what you have) but aim big.

💥Sell cheap, give quality but don't kill the competition.

💥Work hard- there is no substitute for hard work.

💥Adopt 'catch me if you can' as a business policy (don't be in business just to add to the numbers).

💥Be law abiding, don't fight the government- ensure you pay your tax.

💥Go into manufacturing. "But manufacturing is not a recreation centre where one can wake up and walk into", "Before you decide to go into manufacturing, you ought to have raised a reasonable amount of capital".

💥Believe in Nigeria (or your country, if you're not a Nigerian). Dangote also said, "What we are doing now is just scratching the surface. The future of our youths is far bigger than that of my own generation".

💥Always be on the lookout for needs to satisfy.

💥Give pleasure to the society and take away pain.

Scientists have been able to identify the major factors that determine how healthy or sick a person is, or will be...💪

...these factors, also known as the major determinants of health are: Heredity, Human Behavior/Lifestyle, Healthcare and the Environment 😎 

Let's talk about the environment; one of the simplest and best definition of "environment", is one my professor 🎓 gave me

He defined the environment as "the totality of our surrounding", that is everything that surrounds us: the air we breathe, land, water, other people,etc.

The environment as one major determinant of health has physical, biological and psychosocial components.

The physical (in-animate or non-living) components of the environment include: Air, weather, climate, soil, water, shelter, chemicals, clothing, pollutants,etc

Biological (living) components of the environment include: Plants, animals, micro-organisms,etc. all of which can affect our health for good or bad

Psychosocial (psychological and social) components of the environment include: cultural values, organizations, economic status, educational status, others, stress,etc.

All of which can affect our health in one way or the other.🤷🏿‍♂

Just like Charlie Tremendous Jones said, "You will be the same person in five years as you are today, except for the people you meet and the books you read".🤝 👌

💫 Indeed your environment matters when it comes to health and even wealth.

I hope you got value from this. Thanks.❤
