How to be More Successful. We all try to get good grades to later get a well-paid job and succeed in life. Most people including our parents believe it is a direct toad to success. However, according to Robert Kiyosaki, author of Why ‘A' Students Work for ‘C' Students and ‘B' Students Work for the Government, it's actually the other way around. It's “A” students that end up being employed by “C” students. We found 8 reasons why “C” students are often more successful in life. Now that's some food for thought if you want to transform your own life or give good advice to your kids. TIMESTAMPS “C” students question the significance of the academic system. 1:30 They're not afraid to fail or get bad grades. 2:37 “C” students are risk takers. 3:39 They're not submissive followers. 4:45 “C” students have people skills. 5:34 They find simpler ways to get things done. 6:30 “C” students are dreamers. 7:16 They have their own definition of success. 7:53 Music: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/... SUMMARY -“C” students are more interested in a straightforward approach and unfortunately for them, academia doesn't offer that. They hack their way into the system by taking on odd jobs or learning outside of school. -While “A” students aim for perfection on their first try, “C” students aren't afraid to fail, even several times! They embrace their shortcomings and learn from them. -“C” students, who received their fair share of “Fs” in their academic life, aren't afraid to leap into the unknown. They take calculated risks to figure out what they really want in life. -“C” students tend to question everything. They're not the “Yes” group; they're more like the “Yes, but…” team. -Besides experimenting in the work force, “C” students also devote themselves to building networks that can benefit them in the long run when they enter the real world. -“C” students don't wanna put much energy into accomplishing a task, they'd rather be investing their time and effort in pursuing their dream. -“C” students are more interested in thinking about what they wanna do in life rather than being stuck in the four walls of a classroom. -“C” students decide what they want done, and “A” students are good at taking and follow these instructions.

Noa Kageyama, performance psychologist and faculty at the Juilliard School, offers thoughts on stage fright and performance anxiety. Topics discussed include the relationship between stage fright and performance quality, the advantages children receive from working through stage fright, how to prepare to combat stage fright in the weeks leading up to a performance, what to do at the moment of the performance, and the relationship between anxiety and excitement and how teachers can use this relationship to their advantage."

I was recently reading the May/June 2022 issue of “Science and Children” a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.  In this issue, I read the “Science 101” column, written by Matt Bobrowsky.  He wrote an article entitled, “What Makes a Great Science Investigation?” Real-world science doesn't involve a series of steps, and there's not always a single correct answer.  Real science is exploration and discovery and lots of fun!  Scientific investigations are open-ended and can keep being extended or expanded, so too is learning an ongoing endeavor.  Isaac Asimov said, “Education isn't something you can finish.”

Saya membahas buku Why "A" Students Work for "C" Students and "B" Students Work for the Government karya Robert T. Kiyosaki. Buku ini membahas kenapa edukasi keuangan sangat penting. Kita dibesarkan untuk menjadi karyawan atau pemilik bisnis kecil ketika dewasa, namun sejatinya, kita perlu belajar bagaimana menjadi pebisnis besar atau investor. Penulis berpendapat, orang tua seharusnya jangan terlalu fokus mendorong anaknya untuk menjadi murid terbaik atau dikenal sebagai A student. Tapi, fokus pada hal lain seperti mengembangkan kreativitas, mencari minat diri, visioner, dan menjadi pemimpi. Ini merupakan kualitas dari C student yang dibesarkan untuk menjadi inovator, pebisnis sukses masa depan, dan sebagainya.

College campuses are being overwhelmed by liberalism and anti-God rhetoric, but there is a wave of bold and compassionate students taking a fearless stand for life. I'm inspired by the work Kristan Hawkins is doing through her pro-life organization, Students for Life. They're working to end abortion and change culture. However, with a liberal pro-choice president in the White House, changing political policy is going to be even harder. Kristan says that 79% of Planned Parenthood clinics are within five miles of a college campus and that 52% of abortion-seeking women are under the age of 25. But along with the disturbing facts about abortion and Planned Parenthood, she also shares encouraging stories and helpful tactics. And Kristan explains why if we want to end abortion we have to start with young people. Going Farther:Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Prayer Line – 888-388-2683, or online: https://lp.billygraham.org/coronavirus-call-line/ Websites:Billy Graham Evangelistic Association -- https://billygraham.org/Billy Graham Radio – https://billygrahamradio.orgSamaritan's Purse – https://samaritanspurse.org/Students for Life -- https://studentsforlife.org/Social Media:Cissie Graham Lynch Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/CissieGrahamLynchCissie Graham Lynch Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/cissiegrahamlynch/Cissie Graham Lynch Twitter -- https://twitter.com/CissieGLynchBilly Graham Evangelistic Association Facebook -- https://www.facebook.com/BillyGrahamEvangelisticAssociation/                                                                                                                   Billy Graham Facebook -- https://www.facebook.com/ReverendBillyGraham/Billy Graham Radio Facebook -- https://www.facebook.com/billygrahamradio/

Even if you're the greatest UFC fighter on the planet, they still get punched in the face and they don't freak out when they get punched in the face. They don't cry when they get punched in the face. They don't walk out of the ring. That is part of the job description.” “I don't recommend putting yourself in a situation like getting out of the military if you haven't even started your side hustle yet or without getting a job. You need seed money and a primary source of income while you are working your side hustle because there's no pain like financial pain.” “Failure is not an event. It's a lesson, it’s a tool.  Learn from your mistakes and learn from those around you.” About Our Guest   Noble graduated from West Point and was an Infantry Officer in the 82nd Airborne Division.

Clinical decision making is difficult for nursing students to learn especially for students who lack confidence and have high anxiety about their decision making skills. A study with ADN and BSN students compared the outcomes of summer employment as a nurse extern, a nursing assistant, and in non health care roles on students' confidence and anxiety with clinical decision making. Students who were nurse externs had significantly increased confidence and reduced anxiety compared with the other groups. Working alongside a nurse as an extern led to the most improvement in outcomes.

Omer Azizi knows what it’s like to be stuck in a squalid tent with only a United Nations-issued ID tag confirming his existence. He fled Afghanistan’s Taliban tucked in his mother’s arms, and spent his childhood in various Pakistani refugee camps. Over the years, he watched his parents fight the odds to get the family out of refugee camps.They finally made it to the United States in 2014, and today, Azizi is a recent graduate of the University of Southern California. But he hasn’t forgotten about his parents’ struggle and what other refugees are still going through. In fact, he spent much of the past year developing an app that he calls Safar, meaning “journey” in both Farsi and Arabic, to solve the information gap that exists for refugees worldwide, and pitching it to potential supporters. These days, a smartphone, something his parents never had, is a necessity for survival in a refugee camp.Related: Young migrants and refugees in Greece wanted to be heard. So they started their own newspaper.Safar, which Azizi plans to launch this month, came out of an assignment in a unique class he took last year from the university’s engineering school, Innovation in Engineering Design for Global Challenges. Azizi majored in business, but the pilot class drew students from seven different schools across the university.“I am a refugee; I grew up as a refugee in camps, and when I saw this class, I was like, ‘This is made for me.’” Omer Azizi, graduate,  University of Southern California“I am a refugee; I grew up as a refugee in camps, and when I saw this class, I was like, ‘This is made for me,’” Azizi said.When the refugee crisis in Europe began, Burcin Becerik-Gerber, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the school, found herself pondering some big questions — like, how do you improve life for people who live in tents or makeshift shelters, or who are homeless?Becerik-Gerber and her colleagues were inspired to create the course to tackle those dilemmas. She knew her students would need to see up-close the realities and hardships refugees face.  Related: Sicilian school helps migrant teenagers overcome their fear of the sea“You have to be there to build empathy, to be able to be in their shoes even for a week or two weeks,” Becerik-Gerber said.It’s a new way of thinking about engineering and design — putting concepts like empathy and failure front and center. The class involves talking directly with the people affected, for whom solutions are being created. Students build and test prototypes and seek practical feedback. “I don’t want to create solutions that are good on paper, but don’t work,” Becerik-Gerber said. So, students make two visits to refugee camps in Lesvos, Greece, over the course of the year.Becerik-Gerber wants them to realize there are big expectations, and in her welcome spiel during the first class of the year, she told them bluntly: “It is going to be [a] very difficult two semesters.”Students form teams and collaborate with global partners they’ve been assigned to work with. “So, your team is not just the five of you, you have partners halfway around the world that you have to work with, and they are 8 to 10 hours ahead of you.”The professors learned many lessons from last year’s inaugural class."There are so many questions we cannot answer, even though we went there [to the Greek refugee camps] twice," Becerik-Gerber said. "What materials to use in Greece? How to manufacture something? What would be the most cost efficient?”This year, they're partnering with the University of the Aegean, which pairs a local student with each team to help with research in Greece. "We're talking about multicultural, multinational, multidisciplinary, multi time zone collaborations," Becerik-Gerber said. Related: Shopkeepers sue Sicilian Mafia in first-ever migrant-led caseBecerik-Gerber teaches the class with Brad Cracchiola, an engineer and designer, Daniel Druhora, documentary filmmaker, and David Gerber, a professor of architecture practice and civil engineering. (Gerber and Becerik-Gerber are married.) “But at the end of the day, this is about people who desperately need help on the other side of the world and we’re not playing around; it’s for real.”Brad Cracchiola, University of Southern California“You’re going to be doing a lot of presentations and pitches like you’re a start up,” Cracchiola warned the students. “But at the end of the day, this is about people who desperately need help on the other side of the world and we’re not playing around; it’s for real.”Amini Muhammad, an Afghan refugee in Greece, shared his story with the students over speakerphone. He had worked for the US military in Afghanistan and fled after being threatened. Listening to refugees is what this course is all about, and the students will soon go to Greece to meet asylum-seekers in person in refugee camps.After visiting refugee camps on Lesvos last year, students Siena Applebaum and Erna Redzepagic realized many of their ideas wouldn’t pan out on the ground. They spent days meeting with asylum-seekers in the camps, asking about life there and people’s needs. They were struck by how people weren’t able to shower regularly, and how the lack of hygiene brought on illnesses.The students also talked to refugees elsewhere, to see if this problem was unique to Lesvos or more widespread.“We asked our refugee partners who are resettled in Germany and Spain and Greece, ‘Is hygiene a really big issue in the camps?’ And they all confirmed it was one of the worst things there,” Redzepagic said. They set out to design a portable, low-cost shower.Related: What happened to Italy’s unaccompanied migrant minors?“One of our first ideas was a pop-up tent,” Applebaum said. “Something with collapsible poles for a frame and a tarp surrounding it.”It looked somewhat like a camping shower, and they thought it would work well. It was their first failure.“As we showed this to people we were working with, all of the women came back to us saying, ‘I do not feel safe showering in that.’” Siena Applebaum, student, University of Southern California“As we showed this to people we were working with, all of the women came back to us saying, ‘I do not feel safe showering in that,’” Applebaum said.In the camps, too often women are vulnerable to sexual assaults in showers, which are often made of tarp material. Men have been known to slice through the material while women bathe.After rethinking the shower’s design, Applebaum and Redzepagic landed on a long, slender wooden box — similar to a portable toilet. They built a prototype with wood panels that fit together like puzzle pieces. “So, we really relied just on the design of these panels to provide almost all of the functionality. The hooks, the drain, how it’s assembled, no fasteners are required, no additional hinges are required. It just relies on the design of these flat panels,” Appleabaum said.The wood panels are held in place by military strength zip ties. There is no way a knife could slice through, which means their target user — a refugee woman or girl — might actually use what they built. They are now hoping to find a company in Greece to help manufacture the wood panels.Similarly, Azizi, also an alum from last year’s inaugural class, realized the information needs of refugees when he went to Greece last year with his classmates. It helped that Azizi had firsthand experience in refugee camps — and since he’s fluent in five languages, he could speak to most of the refugees he met.“I talked to a random refugee who was seemingly very distressed and was walking around, and I asked him, ‘Hey, can I help you,’ and I spoke in Farsi with him and he told me that he has an asylum interview and he was very much concerned if he doesn’t do well in that interview it’s over for him,” Azizi said.He knows that feeling all too well. “I [asked] him, ‘Do you know there is a legal aid NGO [and it’s] main job is to help with cases?’ And he was like, no,” Azizi said.Refugees should be able to access information about legal aid agencies, medical service providers and free food in one place, he said. That's where Azizi's app, Safar, comes in. His parents might have benefited from something like that during their years in the Pakistani camps.Some nongovernmental organizations wanted to be able to use the app to communicate with each other, too. That way, they could avoid replicating services and prevent refugees from falling through the cracks. Azizi also simplified the interface after hearing that people had a hard time navigating the app.Now, he's shopping his app around to investors.

Omer Azizi knows what it's like to be stuck in a squalid tent with only a United Nations-issued ID tag confirming his existence. He fled Afghanistan's Taliban tucked in his mother's arms, and spent his childhood in various Pakistani refugee camps. Over the years, he watched his parents fight the odds to get the family out of refugee camps.They finally made it to the United States in 2014, and today, Azizi is a recent graduate of the University of Southern California. But he hasn't forgotten about his parents' struggle and what other refugees are still going through. In fact, he spent much of the past year developing an app that he calls Safar, meaning “journey” in both Farsi and Arabic, to solve the information gap that exists for refugees worldwide, and pitching it to potential supporters. These days, a smartphone, something his parents never had, is a necessity for survival in a refugee camp.Related: Young migrants and refugees in Greece wanted to be heard. So they started their own newspaper.Safar, which Azizi plans to launch this month, came out of an assignment in a unique class he took last year from the university's engineering school, Innovation in Engineering Design for Global Challenges. Azizi majored in business, but the pilot class drew students from seven different schools across the university.“I am a refugee; I grew up as a refugee in camps, and when I saw this class, I was like, ‘This is made for me.'” Omer Azizi, graduate,  University of Southern California“I am a refugee; I grew up as a refugee in camps, and when I saw this class, I was like, ‘This is made for me,'” Azizi said.When the refugee crisis in Europe began, Burcin Becerik-Gerber, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the school, found herself pondering some big questions — like, how do you improve life for people who live in tents or makeshift shelters, or who are homeless?Becerik-Gerber and her colleagues were inspired to create the course to tackle those dilemmas. She knew her students would need to see up-close the realities and hardships refugees face.  Related: Sicilian school helps migrant teenagers overcome their fear of the sea“You have to be there to build empathy, to be able to be in their shoes even for a week or two weeks,” Becerik-Gerber said.It's a new way of thinking about engineering and design — putting concepts like empathy and failure front and center. The class involves talking directly with the people affected, for whom solutions are being created. Students build and test prototypes and seek practical feedback. “I don't want to create solutions that are good on paper, but don't work,” Becerik-Gerber said. So, students make two visits to refugee camps in Lesvos, Greece, over the course of the year.Becerik-Gerber wants them to realize there are big expectations, and in her welcome spiel during the first class of the year, she told them bluntly: “It is going to be [a] very difficult two semesters.”Students form teams and collaborate with global partners they've been assigned to work with. “So, your team is not just the five of you, you have partners halfway around the world that you have to work with, and they are 8 to 10 hours ahead of you.”The professors learned many lessons from last year's inaugural class."There are so many questions we cannot answer, even though we went there [to the Greek refugee camps] twice," Becerik-Gerber said. "What materials to use in Greece? How to manufacture something? What would be the most cost efficient?”This year, they're partnering with the University of the Aegean, which pairs a local student with each team to help with research in Greece. "We're talking about multicultural, multinational, multidisciplinary, multi time zone collaborations," Becerik-Gerber said. Related: Shopkeepers sue Sicilian Mafia in first-ever migrant-led caseBecerik-Gerber teaches the class with Brad Cracchiola, an engineer and designer, Daniel Druhora, documentary filmmaker, and David Gerber, a professor of architecture practice and civil engineering. (Gerber and Becerik-Gerber are married.) “But at the end of the day, this is about people who desperately need help on the other side of the world and we're not playing around; it's for real.”Brad Cracchiola, University of Southern California“You're going to be doing a lot of presentations and pitches like you're a start up,” Cracchiola warned the students. “But at the end of the day, this is about people who desperately need help on the other side of the world and we're not playing around; it's for real.”Amini Muhammad, an Afghan refugee in Greece, shared his story with the students over speakerphone. He had worked for the US military in Afghanistan and fled after being threatened. Listening to refugees is what this course is all about, and the students will soon go to Greece to meet asylum-seekers in person in refugee camps.After visiting refugee camps on Lesvos last year, students Siena Applebaum and Erna Redzepagic realized many of their ideas wouldn't pan out on the ground. They spent days meeting with asylum-seekers in the camps, asking about life there and people's needs. They were struck by how people weren't able to shower regularly, and how the lack of hygiene brought on illnesses.The students also talked to refugees elsewhere, to see if this problem was unique to Lesvos or more widespread.“We asked our refugee partners who are resettled in Germany and Spain and Greece, ‘Is hygiene a really big issue in the camps?' And they all confirmed it was one of the worst things there,” Redzepagic said. They set out to design a portable, low-cost shower.Related: What happened to Italy's unaccompanied migrant minors?“One of our first ideas was a pop-up tent,” Applebaum said. “Something with collapsible poles for a frame and a tarp surrounding it.”It looked somewhat like a camping shower, and they thought it would work well. It was their first failure.“As we showed this to people we were working with, all of the women came back to us saying, ‘I do not feel safe showering in that.'” Siena Applebaum, student, University of Southern California“As we showed this to people we were working with, all of the women came back to us saying, ‘I do not feel safe showering in that,'” Applebaum said.In the camps, too often women are vulnerable to sexual assaults in showers, which are often made of tarp material. Men have been known to slice through the material while women bathe.After rethinking the shower's design, Applebaum and Redzepagic landed on a long, slender wooden box — similar to a portable toilet. They built a prototype with wood panels that fit together like puzzle pieces. “So, we really relied just on the design of these panels to provide almost all of the functionality. The hooks, the drain, how it's assembled, no fasteners are required, no additional hinges are required. It just relies on the design of these flat panels,” Appleabaum said.The wood panels are held in place by military strength zip ties. There is no way a knife could slice through, which means their target user — a refugee woman or girl — might actually use what they built. They are now hoping to find a company in Greece to help manufacture the wood panels.Similarly, Azizi, also an alum from last year's inaugural class, realized the information needs of refugees when he went to Greece last year with his classmates. It helped that Azizi had firsthand experience in refugee camps — and since he's fluent in five languages, he could speak to most of the refugees he met.“I talked to a random refugee who was seemingly very distressed and was walking around, and I asked him, ‘Hey, can I help you,' and I spoke in Farsi with him and he told me that he has an asylum interview and he was very much concerned if he doesn't do well in that interview it's over for him,” Azizi said.He knows that feeling all too well. “I [asked] him, ‘Do you know there is a legal aid NGO [and it's] main job is to help with cases?' And he was like, no,” Azizi said.Refugees should be able to access information about legal aid agencies, medical service providers and free food in one place, he said. That's where Azizi's app, Safar, comes in. His parents might have benefited from something like that during their years in the Pakistani camps.Some nongovernmental organizations wanted to be able to use the app to communicate with each other, too. That way, they could avoid replicating services and prevent refugees from falling through the cracks. Azizi also simplified the interface after hearing that people had a hard time navigating the app.Now, he's shopping his app around to investors. He's also turning down jobs with top engineering firms because he wants to help other refugees.“I feel that I have the moral responsibility to give back,” said Azizi, who is mentoring students in the USC course this year. “The humanitarian space and the refugee crisis needs refugee leadership.”Correction: An earlier version of this story misattributed a quote from Brad Cracchiola. Editor's note: Deepa Fernandes is a Pacific Oaks College reporting fellow, which is funded in part by First 5 LA.

In this episode of EdTalk, host Alex Granados talks about Students@Work Week with Ashlie Bucy, deputy director of the North Carolina Business Committee for Education.

The U.S. government takes working illegally very seriously. This audio will cover how foreign students can work in the United States. There are limited work opportunities available in the United States for F-1 students. For this reason, before coming to the United States, F-1 students must prove they have the financial ability (e.g., present bank statements) to pay for tuition and living expenses while studying. If you decide that you want to work, the first step is always to talk with your designated school official (DSO). If your DSO knows you are working without permission, they must report it through SEVIS, meaning your SEVIS record will be terminated. That means that you will have to leave the United States immediately, and you may not be allowed to return. Depending on your status and program of study, you may be eligible for the following type of employment opportunities while you study in the United States: On-Campus On-campus employment is work that F-1 students whose status is Active in SEVIS status may apply for. On-campus employment is specific to work that takes place on campus or at an off-campus location that is affiliated with the school. Examples of on-campus employment include working at a university bookstore or cafeteria. Active F-1 students may apply for on-campus employment up to 30 days before the start of classes. In order to apply, talk to your Designated School Official (D.S.O.) If approved, your D.S.O will provide you with a letter of approval. Take this letter from your D.S.O and a letter of approval from your employer to apply for a Social Security Number (SSN). All students who wish to work must apply for a Social Security Number. If you participate in on-campus employment, you may not work more than 20 hours per week when school is in session. If you have additional questions, please visit the F-1 Student, please call us at 510 7425887. Working Off-Campus Off-campus employment is work that that takes place outside of a school campus. Off-campus employment is only available to F-1 students who have completed at least one full academic year of their program of study, and who have an economic hardship that qualifies for the Department of Homeland Security’s emergent circumstances. To apply for off-campus employment, you must explain your economic hardship situation and receive approval to work from your DSO. If your DSO determines that the situation applies, he or she will recommend you and give you an updated Form I-20, “Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Status.” Once you have the new Form I-20, you must file a Form I-765, “Application for Employment Authorization,” with USCIS within 30 days of receiving your recommendation. If U.S.C.I.S approves you to work, they will send you a Form I-766, “Employment Authorization Document,” (E.A.D) with the dates that you may work off-campus. Please note that you cannot begin to work while the Form I-765 is pending with U.S.C.I.S. If you are approved, you may work 20 hours per week when school is in session. As with on-campus employment, you must also apply for a Social Security Number. The above is just a quick guide on how foreign students on F1 can work in the United States. However, there are many issues associated with working on F1 visa. If you need help or want a consultation, we recommend you call us at 5107425887 Information provided is purely educational.

Robert Kiyosaki looks unassuming and casual. But his deep knowledge in finance, ingenuity, as well as generosity has actually changed the way the world views money. Take, for example, his best-selling book Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Everyone, including those who supposed to have more financial education, was introduced to a whole new set of thinking through the four quadrants. Moreover, most of the readers have come to realize that in order for them to get out of the rat race, they need to be more than mere employees who depend on their paychecks for sustenance. The earth-shattering new principles provided by Kiyosaki even led to one of the most captivating, exciting, enlightening board games in the world—way better than Monopoly—called the CashFlow board game. He has also brought these philosophies across the world through regular conferences and online seminars. READ FULL STORY...

Best selling Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki shares why his latest book, Why A Students Work for C Students, is his most important book yet.  Kiyosaki contends that the education system is ineffective because it mass produces job seekers while hindering the development of job creators.  So while most think there's a financial crisis, Kiyosaki says the problem is lack of education in capitalism.  Listen to this no holds barred discussion with Robert Kiyosaki and decide for yourself.  The Real Estate Guys™ radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training, perspectives and resources to help real estate investors succeed.  Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.com
