While there are many obstacles that deter students from going to college, finances by no means should be the deciding factor.
The no-secrets era of social media makes one consider the built-in risk factor of nominating high-testosterone men to positions of power at all. Everyone is under too much scrutiny now to take a chance on candidates who suddenly blow up into a comic meme, a punchline, a ribald hashtag.
An important factor influencing intergenerational mobility and trends in inequality over time is economic opportunity.
Sometimes it feels like our mental health is directly linked to our performance on the pitch, and while I understand that it is of course a factor – it’s not the whole picture.
The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born-that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That’s nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.
Personally, I believe that government, rather than money, tends to be the primary factor limiting the development of new technologies.
By far the most important factor in the success or failure of any school, far more important than tests or standards or business-model methods of accountability, is simply attracting the best-educated, most exciting young people into urban schools and keeping them there.
We do not evaluate the result but the starting point of the creative process. Precisely, this shows whether the form was discovered by starting from life, or for its own sake. That is why I consider the creative process so essential. Life for us is the decisive factor.
I had three brilliant years on ‘The X Factor,’ and it was one of the best jobs I’ve ever had. ‘Strictly’ is completely different; it’s a whole different show – I’m dancing. It’s not presenting. But this is one of the best things I’ve done – ever.
There’s a reason why you attach the luck factor to your hard work. You work hard in every film, but there’s always that one film that comes at the right time and does the best for you.
Evolving technologies that allow economists to gather new types of data and to manipulate millions of data points are just one factor among several that are likely to transform the field in coming years.

Being sweet is something that’s already given. As a beauty queen, you know that you should be relatable to people, that you should be authentic – and that makes you sweet. But you should also have that ‘it’ factor, and the confidence that will make you spicy.
Getting kids moving is a key factor in tackling obesity and health problems among the young.

For me, personally, I really get a kick out of game shows. I like the play-along factor.
Aside from the likability factor, I can criticize Hillary’s politics all day long, but I never question her intelligence. I have never doubted that she is a strong, capable, smart leader.
Is it demonstratable? Does it have that wow factor? Is it easy to use? Is it priced right?
I’m a big believer that you can try to change the world based on philosophy, doctrine, and belief. But I think the thing that really drives the world is hedonism, the pleasure factor.
Kids are meant to believe that their stepping stone to massive money is ‘The X Factor.’ Luck is great, but most of life is hard work. We do not celebrate people who have made success out of serious hard work.
All the experience from ‘X Factor’ U.K. I can use that – I know what I’m doing on a big stage.
What we should be doing is saving habitats, not single species, no matter what their cuteness factor.
The race factor was just a minuscule part of what I was doing with Eminem. It was really about the music and how well we worked together.
I think it’s particularly fun not being a full-time showbiz reporter because you still have the ‘Oh, wow!’ factor when you go out on the red carpet and there are these big stars that are standing there. But if you’re doing this day in and day out, it becomes a little blase.
I do close to 30 minutes in cardio at a very high rate. I raise the level of intensity. I do a level 18 on the elliptical at four miles an hour for 20 minutes. That’s 360 calories. I want to see someone else try that. The resistance factor at 18 is brutal. No one goes to 20.
You’ve got to distribute the tyre life over the stint, I think that’s the main limiting factor, more than car balance.
I mean, I’m an ‘X Factor’ reject presenting on Radio 2, what’s going on?
Strictly?’ That’s for older people, I watch ‘X Factor.’
If the union between England and America is a powerful factor in the cause of peace, a new Triple Alliance between the Teutonic race and the two branches of the Anglo-Saxon race will be a still more potent influence in the future of the world.
What can possibly be the common factor in a Kim Jee-woon film? I think what really ties a lot of my projects together is that there is always a character that believes his life is not exactly the way he wishes it to be. My regard for that character turns out to be a very sympathetic one.
After ‘Heart Skips A Beat’ hit No.1, I barely had a chance to celebrate ‘cos it was straight over to the judges’ houses for the ‘Xtra Factor,’ filming in Greece, L.A. and Spain.
The form a city assumes as it evolves over time owes more to large-scale works of civil engineering – what we now call infrastructure – than almost any other factor save topography.
Diversity of form factor matters, and not compromising either form factor. You need diversity of price point. That’s quite important.
I’m on my own so I do everything. I think with any mum, guilt is a major factor. You feel guilty dropping your kid off at nursery and going off to work all day. It’s so tough to juggle everything, to get it right all the time.
I’m a chocoholic. I need chocolate every day, like one little piece of Droste. I’m not into milk chocolate. But I don’t like it when its super bitter. I need a sweet factor in there. I go for the 75 percent – that’s good enough for me.
There is an overabundance of rational reasons to say no to factory-farmed meat: It is the No. 1 cause of global warming, it systematically forces tens of billions of animals to suffer in ways that would be illegal if they were dogs, it is a decisive factor in the development of swine and avian flus, and so on.
I was always driven by the idea that if people ever found out about who I was then the stature I created for myself within rugby would have to be as relevant as the fact I was gay. It was always the driving factor to be the strongest, the fastest, the most skilful.
All of the great big men went to college at least two or three years. I think it’s a big factor. I don’t know if it will always work, but I think it’s the best choice.
The thing about romance and romantic movies is that they can be somewhat melodramatic. For a lot of actors, there’s a certain cringe factor that’s involved with that.
I enjoy watching Fear Factor, Newlyweds and American Idol as far as reality TV shows go.
The deciding factor of why some entrepreneurs are successful and others fail is not limited to your DNA or your education; it is about the actions you take as the leader of your business.
Resistance to revelation, resistance to becoming conscious of all that dwells within us – high and low, light and dark – is the anti-change factor. It is also the mainspring of all our psychological fears.
Too many writers get into that gross-’em-out factor.
I’ve been in the gym, I’ve been training and I’ve been getting the Ws. I think that played a factor in me staying out of trouble outside the ring, staying focused on what’s in front of me, and that’s my boxing career.
Weapons are an important factor in war, but not the decisive one; it is man and not materials that counts.
My doctor felt that the main contributing factor was so many years of malnutrition, especially during my formative years, even before I got into modeling.
In America, when I first came here, they were used to wearing more make-up – thicker foundation, more Max Factor, that sort of thing. But you have to know who you are and what you look like: if you know yourself a little bit, you don’t need to follow trends.
If you ever want to know why I’m not on a record label, look at ‘The X Factor!’ Honestly, of all the people that strive to break barriers in music and do good things and write great lyrics, not one of them would ever pass the first round on any of these competitions.
It’s always important for a coach to decide on the short term and long term – one factor doesn’t block out the other.
Age is not really the biggest factor, whichever end of the scale you are at. It’s how you perform, how you respond to the challenge of having good players around you competing for your place.
