1. Read

2. Observe

3. To ask questions

4. To try it out

ABESAN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL II

 

This book has motivated me in such a way that I was able to

·         discover myself and what I can do best,

·         knowing my reading style that produces my best result,

·         how to master myself and master my result.

From this book I was able to understand that the best and greatest discovery ever made is the discovery of self and there is no one like me because I am the true and original of myself. Therefore, I appreciate what makes me unique and I use it to get the positive greatest result I deserve.

I have learnt to appreciate my parents, teachers, classmates when I read through the law of appreciation because an attitude of gratitude can take me to the highest altitude.

Lastly, the law which I called the most important is the law of the supernatural. This is because you can’t do without God and we need his support to achieve your aim with good grades. Beyond study, wisdom and knowledge, the grace of God enhances your grades.

I have learnt as many things as possible from the book, 17 Secrets of High Flying Students authored by Mr. Fela Durotoye. The first thing I learnt was that you have to decide on what you want to become in future and that you have to work towards. I also learnt to focus on what I want to become and how I can pass all my forth coming examination. I also learnt to be appreciative as this saying goes “anything you don’t appreciate will depreciate”.

AKINMOLADUN BUKOLA

These are some of the things that Bukola wrote with respect to what she learnt from the book:

·         Distraction: is the enemy of success. When you are distracted you will fail. Distraction brings about failure to you.

·         Hindsight: You must have at least three years past questions before starting your examinations. By doing these you are going to have good grades.

·         Focus: Focus creates blindness which means when you are focused on something, you are blind to distractions.

·         Supernatural: is the most important of all. Put God first in all things you do. Before starting your examination you should pray that God should help you to remember all what you have read. And pray that nothing should stop you from doing your examination.

To be focused is to be determined on what is necessary to be done. It is more than a decision, it is being determined. If you don’t decide you cannot be focused and believe you can do it. Focus creats blindness to distractions around. You need focus to get what you want. Distraction is an enemy of distinction.
