This also means to consider you relationships and you will be successful.  Also listen to others that they know that you are caring and considerate of their feelings.

Key 7: Consistency

This means that someone has the ability to do something that others fear to do. It also means to have the strength to face pain or grief. Most people have the fear of failing a class. Most students also have the fear of not graduating high school. Also of not getting the job that they applied to. But i believe that everyone can face those fears.

Key 10: Confidence
