As it was our first time to join a Regional Science Investigatory Project, my students and I were very hopeful and excited. Winning was our goal but alongside it was our aim to enjoy the moment for this very good opportunity. There are so many factors that I believed help us to win the Regional Science Investigatory project.

For me one of the formulas in winning the Regional Science Investigatory Project is discipline. At the beginning, I can say that my students weren’t prepared to handle success and all the responsibilities that come together with it. However, having experienced so much hard work made them appreciate their sweet success Hard work gives you a purpose, it helps you overcome laziness, procrastination, your doubts, fear of failure, insecurities, and your bad habits. You make your own luck, work for you. Grabbing opportunities and making the most of them is part of the journey to a success. The best measure for anything is progress. And there’s nothing new that conveys more outcomes on a consistent basis than hard work. Seeing results makes us feel accomplished, grateful and truly-satisfied with what you’re doing that makes the whole process enjoyable and you find the strength to persevere.

I believed in the saying of Thomas Jefferson that: “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. “The second recipe for success is that having a Positive Attitude. Looking for the positive Attitude in everything you do and see will guarantee that you are content and glad and live a life full of confidence and optimism. Optimism is of course what we all live by as no one distinguishes what GOD has kept in store for us.

Other factors are Determination and Motivation, in broad terms, They are a firmness of purpose, a resoluteness. Motivation encompasses your general desire or willingness to do something or the reasons you have to act in a certain way. Life generally isn’t easy. There are continuously things that get in the way on our journey to achieve those goals.

Selecting something that you are passionately concerned in to research is an initial step on the way to a successful academic writing but it can be tough to keep the momentum. Be organized in planning, time is essential when there are numerous tasks to be done and accomplished.

Lastly, the most powerful weapon that we have is Prayer. We know that our team showed hard work, right attitude, determination and motivation. We just lift and offer it to God. I am blessed because even if it was my first time to handle a Regional Science Project we brought home the bacon. It was really an honor for me to be a part of this journey.
