“When I started my clinical rotations at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, I felt that my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at every challenge I faced. Since I was among the first MLT students to rotate through WFUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enabled me to dispel many of the preconceived ideas about MLTs regarding their education and what their able to do.”

·      Many people avoid making decisions their whole lifes, so their decisive faculty of mind, the faculty of discrimination, becomes rusty and dies. Such people become totally dependent on others. When we study the four functions of the mind—buddhi, the faculty of decisiveness; ego, the principle of identity; chita, the storehouse of impressions; and Manas, the importance of sensations and expierence—then we become aware of the power at will. Will power is that something within us that comes forward and says, ”Do this. It will be helpful for you” training the internal functions will help us to understand the decisive faculty of the mind, without which we cannot be succeesful.

·       Watch what you can do on a daily basis. We become what we do and think about. If you think about nothing-you will become nothing. If you think about becoming a great student-you will become a great student. If you think about being honest-you will become honest

·        Students know they should learn to decide on time, but they don’t do it. They always say. “Well, I knew it. I understand the key, but I did not act in time.” Though they may think correctly, and accurately understand the situation properly, they suddenly lose confidence. This is a world of competition, someone else is always trying to attain the same thing we are. So if we do not decide on time, someone will attain what we want. Time is valuable in the external world. A tender bamboo can be easily bent, but if we try to bend a mature bamboo, it will break. That which we have to do today, we should not postpone for tomorrow, but we should also not make decisions in haste. We may have a setback if we make a wrong decision, but our mistakes will teach us.

·        We must learn from the success and mistakes of others. When we see another student succeeding greatly and honorably, learn how they do it and pattern your studies after theirs Also, on the other hand, when you see other students failing miserably, learn how they do it, and AVOID doing what they do or else you will join them in the failure’s club.

·        Make the most of your time and opportunities while at school. Don’t waist valuable time.

Do the math. Even if you’re struggling in math, stay with it. Knowing math gives options. It opens doors to good jobs in computes, engineering and business. And it helps your mind get organized.

·        Do your math homework every day. Falling behind will make it that much harder.

·        The first point to understand is the philosophy and science of decision—how to make decisions on time. The most successful person in that person who knows how to decide on time. There are many extraordinarily brilliant people who understand things very quickly, but when the time comes to make a decision, when an opportunity comes, they withdraw and are not able to act. They do not know how to decide.
