School Is a Game, but It's aVery Important Game.

Subjects Do Not Always Seem Interesting or Relevant,but Being Actively Engaged in Learning Them is Betterthan Being Passively Bored and Not Learning Them.

Few Things Are as Potentially Difficult,Frustrating, or Frightening as GenuineLearning, Yet Nothing Is So Empowering.

How Well You Do in School Reflects YourAttitude and Your Method, Not Your Ability.

If You're Doing It for the Grades or for theApproval of Others, You're Missing the Satisfactionof the Process and Putting Your Self-Esteem at theMercy of Things Outside Your Control.

You're In School to Learn to Think forYourself, Not to Repeat What YourTextbooks and Teachers Tell You.

The Point of a Question Is to Get Youto Think Not Simply to Answer It.

Making Mistakes (and OccasionallyAppearing Foolish) Is the Price YouPay for Learning and Improving.

Grades Are Just Subjective Opinions.

Not Everything You Are Assignedto Read or Asked to Do Is EquallyImportant.

Merely Listening to Your Teachersand Completing Their Assignmentsis Never Enough.

Nobody Can Teach You as Wellas You Can Teach Yourself.
