The words of wisdom

“Success doesn’t come to you, you go to it.” Your definition of success determines the outcome you will obtain. The Words of Wisdom is a guide to your success. Some look at success as a straight and narrow line that connects the dots between where one is, and where he is going; yet the truth is, success looks more like a hot mess of twists and turns, curves and bumps, and hurdles and alternate pathway. Those people either didn’t read relevant books or simply glanced over the facts and figures, but provided very positive feedback (and even remembered) the words of wisdom from wise people who have successfully navigated the journey through college.Truth is, students love when real life stories are woven into their academicactivities. Personally, I learnt from a group kids that the facts and figures on topics such as note-taking and how manyhours to study per week can be found by searching online and can vary per person. What really mattered to students were the real-life words of wisdom that you can’t find online.Some Words of Wisdom “even when servants are smart, it takes more than words to make them obey. There is more hope for a fool than for someone who speaks without thinking. Slaves that you treat kindly from theirchildhood ‘will causes you sorrow.’ A person with a quick temper stirs up arguments and commits a lot of sins. Pride brings disgrace, humility leads to honour. If you take part in a crime you are your worst enemy, because even under oath you can’t tell the truth. Don’t fall into the trap of being a coward, trust the lord, and you will be safe. Many tried to make friends with a ruler, but justice comes from the lord. Good people and criminals can’t stand each other” etc.Marva Collins
