1. Further professional development 

All the things that have been mentioned in the presentation are very important in their
own way. To ensure the success of a student all the different aspect that has been
mentioned in the presentation are very beneficial in all respect.
 PREPARING FOR SUCCESS: SELF-DEVELOPMENT AND RESPONSIBILITY

Honesty: This quality is one of the important factors that every individual need to
acquire. Being honest makes a person respectful and everyone respects them for their
deeds. Loyalty not only offers self-confidence but also advantageous in every aspect of
life (Luyten, Lowyck and Blatt, 2017). This quality is very essential in every phase of life
even in the academic future professions. It will not only develop my character by will
also develop my personality which will be very beneficial for me to chase my dreams
and achieve goals.

Organized: Being an organized one, actually means preparing and arranging

everything before time to avoid panicking in the meantime. It gives me the inspiration to
be amongst one. Organizing everything, before time will make a person a perfect one
and develops their living standards (Kandler et al. 2015). In the future when I will get a
job in any organization learning of being organized from now will make me a disciplined
person. Though being a disciplined person gets respects and praise from everyone.

Prioritizing studies: As the learning in the presentation has demonstrated it can be

easily understood that education is the most important aspect for achieving success.
Academic education is the main base for every individual. It gives us knowledge of
basic learning, makes us disciplined, teaches us to value time and provides us degree
and teaches us moral values which are very necessary to survive ethically and decently
in life (Ormel et al. 2017). In life according to degrees and moral values career
opportunities can be found. I personally give education the chief most priority in life as
without this success cannot be achieved in life.

Punctuality: This one is another chief most important quality that every individual must
require to possess in them. Being a punctual person I can gain lots of positivity in my
professional life (Zech et al. 2018). Career-wise a person who is punctual and performs
all the duties on time can achieve success easily. Punctuality makes a man perfect in
every way being on time not only beneficial to accomplish work on time but it also gives
a good impression on others. I have seen many people who are not punctual and being
unsuccessful to achieve their goals. For this reason not only for myself I would like to
suggest everyone to be punctual to order get success and accomplish respective goals
in life.

All these elements that have been discussed here are very essential and beneficial in
every phase of life (Kandler and Zapko-Willmes, 2017). I personally will try to adopt all
these qualities and will further suggest everybody to take up these virtues in their life.
These qualities will not only offer success in professional life but will be also beneficial
in personal life also. It will be beneficial to maintain a balance between professional and
personal lives.
