BRILLIANT STUDENTS ARE ORGANIZED
Naturally, teenagers are messy. Most of them would throw things here and there and never bother with organization. But this is not the case with brilliant students; at least most of them. The brilliant students are the ones who will keep their rooms properly arranged at all times, their school books stacked properly and everything in order. The truth is that disorganization can easily disorient one and make tasks difficult to accomplish. And that is where brilliant students get it right- their ability to organize everything and have nothing distract them from their studies. So do you want to be brilliant in class? Learn to be organized.
BRILLIANT STUDENTS MANAGE TIME WELL
Everyone have twenty hours in a day which may not be enough considering the many tasks we have to accomplish each day. The truth however is that having the ability to efficiently manage one’s time is one of the keys to success. You must therefore design a personal daily timetable (asides the general timetables in your schools and at the homes) which will help you to stay dedicated towards accomplishing each of the necessary tasks you must accomplish on a daily basis. That is one trick that brilliant students have in common- their effective time management skills. Be like them.
BRILLIANT STUDENTS ARE ACTIVE NOT PASSIVE PARTICIPANTS IN THE CLASSROOM
It’s rare to see a brilliant student who does not actively contribute and ask questions in the classroom. They are usually inquisitive and eager to learn new things. This is unlike the regular students who could just sit in the classroom all day without making a single contribution. Now there is no need to emphasize the need for class interactive sessions. When students and teachers interact in class, more ideas about the topic under discussion are shared. This sharing of ideas engenders better understanding any topic under discussion which ultimately enables students become better informed. That said, my advice for you is to let your curiosity drive you to academic success.
BRILLIANT STUDENTS ARE DETERMINED TO SUCCEED
They have the grit to face those difficult Maths equations and study those confusing concepts until they comprehend. Brilliant students do not give up when the going gets tough, instead they keep going. They are ever determined to overcome challenges triumphantly. And that is the reason why even though most of their mates complain that the subjects are just too difficult to understand, they concern themselves more with understanding the difficult subjects instead of merely complaining. So do not go about complaining; be proactively-involved in solving the academic problems you might be facing.
BRILLIANT STUDENTS HAVE SELF-DISCIPLINE
Finally, no amount of organization, time management, participation or grit will matter one bit if you don’t exercise the self-discipline to judiciously apply them to your studies. In other words, any student who is ever successful is also disciplined; constantly trying to do everything necessarily to ensure success. Studying hard is not fun. But with discipline and knowing what the outcome will be, you will find yourself giving your books the right attention. That is what brilliant students do. Be like them.

what did a student need to do to have discipline
Good Suggestions For Improving Discipline
1. Be warm, kind, and friendly–but never familiar. Do not tell students your troubles or too much about your family life. Do not tell off-color jokes. You are a professional.
2. Have rules that are fair and cover all types of subjects. Be sure that any set of rules includes, “Students will follow instructions given by the teacher, office, or any other employee of the district.” Put your rules in writing and provide copies for students and parents. Have them signed by both. Keep copies of signed rules on file.
3. Enforce rules fairly and consistently. Use a checklist like the one found in this booklet or a system of merits and demerits.
4. Stay in charge. Be alert and observant. Use that “teacher look” whenever possible. Maintain eye contact with students. Believe it or not, you can even “walk” with your eyes. Never look down when disciplining a student. Walk. Most students after the third grade do not want you near them. A walk around the room will solve many potential problems. Remember that you are the only one who has the right to walk around the room anytime you wish. Besides, a moving target is harder to hit!
5. Raise your eyebrow–never your voice. Never argue with a student. If the problem continues, lower your voice and keep repeating your instructions. Understand that silence is an important tool. Think of Clint Eastwood when he said, “Make my day.” The madder you get, the lower and slower your voice should become. If the student continues to argue, simply say, “We will discuss this later.” Then walk away.
6. Meet students one at a time. Stand at the door when students arrive. Greet each by name. Never scold a student in front of the class. If a student cannot be corrected by looking at him or standing next to him or through simple instructions, ask the student to step outside or to see you after class. Don’t over-react if the student says something under his/her breath. Your time will come, and everyone in the room knows it.
7. Count to five. Learn to set limits. Many students need deadlines. Counting to five after instructions have been given is a good way to reinforce instructions or to get students on task quickly
8. Keep students busy and involved. Students get bored when they have to do the same thing for too long or if they are required to do the same things over and over. The greater the variety of activities, the better. Make learning fun. Involve students with hands-on activities or short group work sessions. Remember, children learn best by doing. Even a few minutes with nothing to do can lead to student misbehavior.
9. Work at discipline as hard as you work at teaching. Teaching good discipline is just as important as teaching the subject matter. In addition, poor discipline in your classroom can ruin your day, your job, and even your career.
10. Have the attitude that violations of your rules will not be tolerated. No student should be allowed to continually disrupt the education of others. A strong, consistent attitude is more important than what sex you are, how tall you may be, or how many muscles you have. Discipline is a state of mind.
