"Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts but to be scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind.
B.C. Forbes

I agree with this statement because honesty is what truly makes a man and a woman. You just cant say you are honest and not show it. However honesty is sometimes used as a tool to hurt people, that is why when you are truly someone who is honest you find ways to use your honesty for good.

Honesty is always the best policy. Employers need to know that they can trust you with everything from company credit cards to trade secrets. How can you work at honesty? You demonstrate integrity every day that you do your own homework and resist the temptation to cheat on exams.

"Stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what's happening right this moment."

Phil Jackson

I agree with this statement because if you are doing something you should not do it because you want the win or because you feel like you are going to loose. You should do it because you are having fun and you want to make the best out of it. 

Time Management 8 of 10

Time Management

Master the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time—classes help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs require multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting new ones, respond to e-mails while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrow’s produce while planning next week’s menu,

Someone said “Wherever you are be there.” Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here and there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.

"Truth is the only safe ground to stand upon."
Elizabeth Cady Stanton

I agree with this statement because nothing more than truth can stand your ground. When you are standing in a ground full of lies, you will eventually fall into a hole of darkness. Because that is what lies bring, darkness, and pity. How ever the truth brings great accomplishments. 

Attention to Detail 7 out of 10

Attention to Detail

7 out of 10

When you double-check your calculations for a math problem or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write emails.

John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who led his teams to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that paying attention to details was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.

Details may be small things but from small things come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

"Everyone is the architect of their own learning"

Claudius

I agree with this statement because no one can learn for you. Only you yourself can learn for your own good.  For example if you get good grades it is because you as the "Architecture" build your way up to the top, not anybody else. You are the one that builds your future.
