  1. Some Structures • According to John Smith, “students are successful when they visualize their goals” (27). • In his article, “How to Succeed in School,” John Smith suggests that “students are successful when they visualize their goals” (27). • Many “students are successful when they visualize their goals” (Smith 27). • Although John Smith asserts that “students are successful when they visualize their goals” (27), Janet Jones argues that “the reason many students fail is due to a lack of realistic expectations and poor planning”(113).
