Tips in preparing yourself for PSPM

          Finals week can be the most stressful time for a student, whether in high school, college or graduate school. Ensure you're prepared for your exams with these study tips, which can help you conquer your PSPM. Follow this list as PSPM approaches (the earlier you prep, the better) so you can ace your exams from start to finish.


1. Create your own study guide
While many teachers provide a study guide, creating your own can help you understand the material better. Outlining the important information you need to learn can be helpful, both in creation and to refer to during your studies

2. Ask questions
Your lecturers are there to help, ask them questions regarding the material and the exam so that you're prepared when exam time arrives.

3. attend the review session
Review sessions offer vital information on exam format, what will be on the exam and key concepts you should be focusing your studies on.

4. Start early
If you always start ahead of schedule, you'll never be cramming the night before PSPM. You'll always better in doing so !

5. Organize a study group session. 
It can be helpful to study in groups-sometimes. Evaluate whether or not studying with others will be beneficial  
to the subject as well as your learning process.

6. Study things not on the guide.
Study guides aren't always comprehensive-they're just suggestions of the main concepts to learn.

7. Take breaks.
You won't be able to memorize or comprehend all the material at once. Balance is the key-ensure that you reward learning with break times to recharge and relax.

8. Stay well-rested
There's a lot to be said about good night's sleep. Make sure you're well rested so that you can be fully focused during you exams.

9. Teach classmates
Learning by teaching is a method that really works. If you work with a study buddy and explain concepts to one another, you're relearning the material all over again.

10. Visualize
Create mind maps

          There it is !!. A list that may help you to prepare yourself for the incoming PSPM. I hope that we can do our best in the PSPM. Best of luck for all of us, the matriculation's student. #kmph

How to take action to preserve nature

          Being concerned about the environment can feel overwhelming, but there are actions that you can take help preserve the nature world. Start by finding ways to protect the land base and waterways in your own community and neighborhood. Its also important to reduce your own carbon footprint and make sustainable eating choices. You can maximize your actions by raising awareness of local environmental challenges among your friends and family, or joining with other activists to push for policies that protect nature. Here are some steps in conserving your local environment.

1. Stop mowing your lawn.
The grasses and weeds will go to seeds, and offer haven for insects and birds. Wildflowers will bloom, providing nourishment for bees. When you maintain a standard grass lawn, you're depriving these creatures of their nature environment.

2. Participate in beach or river cleanup
When people litter, their trash often makes its way to your local waterways, destroying the natural homesites of birds, fish and other water creatures. Help out by joining with others in beach or riverside cleanup events.

3. Stop using pesticides
Pesticides despite the name, don't actually solve best problems. Rather than spraying toxic pesticides that are dangerous to humans, pets, fish and birds, the best solution is to alter the garden environment in a way that causes the pests to leave.

4. Plant natives trees and shrubs
By planting trees and shrubs that are native to your area , you'll be working with the local ecosystems rather than against it. Check with your local nursery, or with your state's cooperative extension agency, to learn more about the particular varieties of native plants that might on your property.

         As a conclusion, there are thousands of ways in preserving nature. As intellectual individuals and civilian, we should work together, we ourselves should assemble a team, perhaps thousands of teams to preserve nature. It is for the good of our future. Thank you for reading my post. Let the nature be preserved.

Internet services and websites

 
     
          Nowadays, internet became our basic necessities due to the demand of internet in education, works and daily communications. There are a few internet services that we use everyday without knowing the details of each of them. Firstly, world wide web (WWW) which is a world wide connection of electronic documents (webpages) and is not a real-time type of internet service. E-mail, the transmission of messages and files via computer network, not a real-time type of internet service. Instant messaging, a real-time type of internet service and defined as a real-time typed conversation with another connected user where you also can exchange photos, videos and other content. VoIP which is a conversation that take place over the internet using a telephone connected to a computer, mobile device or other device and is a real time typed internet service. Message Board, a not real-time typed internet service and is defined as an online area in which users have discussions about a particular subject. Lastly, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), an internet standard that permits file uploading and downloading with other computers on the internet and is a real time type of Internet service.


         Also there are many types of website. Portal is a website that offers variety of internet services from single, convenient location. Blog is an informal website consisting of time-stamped articles or posts in a diary or journal format, usually listed in reverse chronological order. Wiki, a type of website that allows users to create, add to, modify, or delete the website content via a browser. Online Social Network, a website encourages members in its online community to share their interests, ideas, stories, photos, music and videos with other registered user. Lastly, business, a website contains content that promotes or sells products or services.


Example of a blog

           As conclusions, Internet service and website are quite similar to one another that both of them require Internet connections to be accessed. After that, websites and Internet services are created for an easier  sharing of information between humans through Internet. Internet services mostly used in small group of users while website are typically used in large amount of users, worldwide users. That's all from me in this post, thank you for reading.

Mountain biking

Greetings my fellow readers, in this post, I will share with you about mountain biking. I have been interested in this sport since I was in form 5. This is because this sport is so manly dangerous and very high in risk and the risk is typically death or serious injuries. Now, I realized that I do not have enough bravery to do such things, so I decided to enjoy watching the mountain bikers biking in youtube.
          Mountain biking is the sport of riding bicycles off-road, often over rough terrain, using specially designed mountain bikes. Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes, but incorporate features designed to enhance durability and performance in rough terrain.
Mountain bike

Mountain biking can generally be broken down into multiple categories: cross country, trail riding, all mountain (also referred as "Enduro"), downhill, free ride and dirt jumping. However, the majority of mountain biking falls into categories of Trail and Cross Country riding styles.
          This individual sport requires endurance, core strength and balance, bike handling skills, and self reliance. Advanced riders pursue both steep technical descents and high incline climbs. In the case of freeriding, downhilling and dirt jumping, aerial maneuvers are performed off both natural features and specially constructed jumps and ramps. This is one of the hundreds videos that I have watched.

Steps to excel


This is my sixth post in my blog. Then, there will be the seventh, the eighth, the ninth, huarggghh.. It will be the most boring starts of paragraph forever. I do not know how to type words apart from those words. Well, what is excellence or excel ?. Emm, can be defined as a person or thing that achieves desired aims or attains fame, wealth, etc. Can excel be broken down into steps?. Of course it can. Here are some steps that you can apply to your life.



1.       Dream it
Everything begins in the heart and mind. Every great achievement began in the mind of one person. They dared to dream, to believe that it was possible. Take some time to allow yourself to ask what if? Think big. Don’t let negative thinking discourage you.

2.       Believe it
Yes, your dream needs to be big. It needs to be something that is seemingly beyond your capabilities. But it also must be believable. You must be able to say that if certain things take place, if others help, if you work hard enough, though it is a big dream, it still can be done.

3.       See it
The great achievers have a habit. They see things. They picture themselves walking around their CEO office in their new 30$ million corporate headquarters, even they are sitting on a folding chair in the garage headquarter. All of this grooms the mind to control the body to carry out the dream.

4.       Tell it
One reason many dreams never go anywhere is because the dreamer keeps it all to himself. It is a quiet dream that only lives inside of his mind. The one who wants to achieve their dream must tell that dream to many people. When we have told others, it spurs us on to actually doing it so we don’t look foolish.

5.       Plan it
Every dream must take the form of plan. The old saying that you ‘get what you plan for’. Is so true. Your dream won’t just happen. You need to sit down, on a regular basis, and plan out your strategy for achieving the dream. Break the whole plan down into small, workable parts. Then set a time frame for accomplishing each task on your dream plan.

6.       Enjoy it
When you have reached your goal and you are living your dream, be sure to enjoy it. In fact, enjoy the trip too. Give yourself some rewards along the way. Give yourself a huge reward when you get there. Be gracious and generous.

        As a conclusion, there are still thousands of way to excel in your life. Life is short, but it is worth it if you spend your  life trying to get what you want, although it might be impossible, but it worth the shot, except if you are dreaming of having superpowers or flight ability. That’s all from me for this post. I hope that we can achieve our dreams. Remember to always be kind and generous. Positive attitudes leads to positive outcomes. Thank you..

Strive To Success

This is my fifth post in my blog, if I'm not mistaken. Ok, what is success. Most of us will define it as the accomplishment of an aim or purpose or the attainment of popularity or profit. For me, success is a thing that we must accomplish and get. The real question is, what is the steps or ways to success in life or in learning?



1. Focus on commitment, not motivation.


Just how committed are you to your goal? How important is it for you, and what are you willing to sacrifice in order to achieve it? If you find yourself fully committed, motivation will follow.



2. Seek knowledge, not results.


If you focus on the excitement of discovery, improving, exploring and experimenting, your motivation will always be fueled. If you focus only on results, your motivation will be like weather—it will die the minute you hit a storm. So the key is to focus on the journey, not the destination. Keep thinking about what you are learning along the way and what you can improve.



3. Make the journey fun.

It’s an awesome game! The minute you make it serious, there’s a big chance it will start carrying a heavy emotional weight and you will lose perspective and become stuck again.



4. Get rid of stagnating thoughts.

Thoughts influence feelings and feelings determine how you view your work. You have a lot of thoughts in your head, and you always have a choice of which ones to focus on: the ones that will make you emotionally stuck (fears, doubts) or the ones that will move you forward (excitement, experimenting, trying new things, stepping out of your comfort zone).



5. Use your imagination.

Next step after getting rid of negative thoughts is to use your imagination. When things go well, you are full of positive energy, and when you are experiencing difficulties, you need to be even more energetic. So rename your situation. If you keep repeating I hate my work, guess which feelings those words will evoke? It’s a matter of imagination! You can always find something to learn even from the worst boss in the world at the most boring job. I have a great exercise for you: Just for three days, think and say positive things only. See what happens.



6. Stop being nice to yourself.

Motivation means action and action brings results. Sometimes your actions fail to bring the results you want. So you prefer to be nice to yourself and not put yourself in a difficult situation. You wait for the perfect timing, for an opportunity, while you drive yourself into stagnation and sometimes even into depression. Get out there, challenge yourself, do something that you want to do even if you are afraid.



7. Get rid of distractions.

Meaningless things and distractions will always be in your way, especially those easy, usual things you would rather do instead of focusing on new challenging and meaningful projects. Learn to focus on what is the most important. Write a list of time-wasters and hold yourself accountable to not do them.



8. Don’t rely on others.

You should never expect others to do it for you, not even your partner, friend or boss. They are all busy with their own needs. No one will make you happy or achieve your goals for you. It’s all on you.



9. Plan.

Know your three steps forward. You do not need more. Fill out your weekly calendar, noting when you will do what and how. When-what-how is important to schedule. Review how each day went by what you learned and revise what you could improve.



10. Protect yourself from burnout.

It’s easy to burn out when you are very motivated. Observe yourself to recognize any signs of tiredness and take time to rest. Your body and mind rest when you schedule relaxation and fun time into your weekly calendar. Do diverse tasks, keep switching between something creative and logical, something physical and still, working alone and with a team. Switch locations. Meditate, or just take deep breaths, close your eyes, or focus on one thing for five minutes.

You lack motivation not because you are lazy or don’t have a goal. Even the biggest stars, richest business people or the most accomplished athletes get lost sometimes. What makes them motivated is the curiosity about how much better or faster they can get. So above all, be curious, and this will lead you to your goals and success.



          Well, these are the 10 steps that we need to do in order to be successful in life. Also put in mind that success is not only the matter of having money or all the luxury in life, it is when you are happy and when you  can tolerate, appreciate others around you. You are also are called as successful person if you can manage yourself, you can change and turn your habits or your lifestyle to a better stage. That's all from me, thank you for reading and spending your time here, in my blog. Good luck in life and always "Strive To Success". Faisal out....
