Academic success Quote by Eric Jensen
““For students to succeed, they'll need to become consummate lifelong learners. The term lifelong learner is certainly not a new one, and yet there is a lasting quality to it. Its conciseness, its implications, and its universal use all lend credence to its importance. It can define the difference between a life of mediocrity and one of success. One of the primary benefits of learning for life is acquiring the ability to grow and meet the changes and challenges that are ever present at any age. This type of lifelong learning begins now—not after graduation from high school or college, but now. When a student employs the four drivers just listed, he or she will enjoy present academic success as well as success later in life.””
