it takes sacrifices that's what it takes to be great any
kind of success that you'll experience in your life will take
sacrifice and that's the case for your studying too
you need to be willing to go the extra mile
someone who wakes up early goes to the gym
and walks into the empty library while everyone else is still sleeping
you will get tired but if you have a strong enough reason
you will find the strength to push through
why are you different than all the other people in your class
who are trying to achieve exactly the same as you
what makes you stand out from them what makes you deserve it more than they
deserve it somebody is waiting for you to give up
someone is waiting for you to fall so don't just
talk about your hustle don't just talk about how much you're studying
show me
every single one of us only has 24 hours in a day that includes me
that includes you that includes your friends
your teachers your parents it also includes bill gates
richard branson and will smith and so if you only have 24 hours a day
your success is solely dependent on how you use that 24 hours how many of your
24 do you spend mindlessly scrolling through social
media or on the phone to friends or watching aimless videos on youtube
so what's the difference between someone who is successful in their education
or in business or however you want to define it
and someone who is unsuccessful the successful person
uses every single hour of their 24 hours wisely that's it
that's really it
the person failing their exams will be spending much of their 24 hours
doing things that do not align with their long-term
goals the person at the top of the class will be spending
all of their 24 hours reading writing learning researching asking questions
planning preparing exercising and eating healthily
because i can tell you all about your life if there are empty gaps in the
schedule where you're not doing anything productive i know exactly where
you're going to be in 10 years time
if you're chasing grades then you might as well just give up now
the grades are nothing there's nothing there
it's not the grades you should be chasing it's the individual that is
capable of achieving those grades that you should be chasing those
students that are achieving a 4.0 gpa you've got to study their character
because that's when you'll start to see exactly what it takes
the daily habits that are followed religiously
the hours of studying late at night while everyone else is sleeping
the 100 attendance in class and when you study the characters of people getting
poor grades you'll see failure everywhere you'll see
it all falling apart the procrastination taking control the
lack of drive and focus skipping classes when they just don't
feel like it it's your choice you have to make are
you moving forward on a journey to better yourself or are
you sat down and giving in throwing in the towel
making do with what you have not willing to take the risk because
that's what most people are doing they don't give a damn about
achieving anything in their life you can see it in their actions in their
behavior so don't be most people
ed milot one of the top peak performance experts on the planet explains it like
this failure and setbacks students quitting
failing the exams having retakes dropping out it's all
going to happen just get ready don't give in to that
stuff don't give in to the fears don't give in
to the setbacks you're gonna have failures it's part of
the journey and when you get weak when your
classmates give up when your friends tell you you shouldn't be studying so
much or that you're not good enough or that
there's something better or whatever they tell you
you remember why you're doing it
you've got to have a persistent attitude that you're going to win
you got to have a positive outlook you got to be optimistic
you got to know you're going to win right now you need to believe
you're gonna win because listen to me the price you pay for not being the best
version of yourself is too extreme you'll have to carry the
burden of failure for the rest of your life
start to stand up a little taller start to walk more confidently
start becoming the best version of you you can do it quietly in your own way
you can do it in the way you want but somehow they gotta look at you and think
okay i ain't gonna mess with that one you're gonna have to put up with some
failures you're gonna have to put yourself into
some uncomfortable places listen to me do it put yourself
into an uncomfortable place don't negotiate
don't try to navigate in your head
unrealistic people rule the world when you start giving more you'll start
receiving more more opportunities more prosperity
stronger relationships and better health if you push yourself you can always
raise the bar in your life you have to keep raising the bar
first you set the standard then you raise the bar
you're only going to rise above average by working hard by grinding
by hustling by believing in yourself by believing in yourself when no one
else does by becoming obsessed with reaching
success by sacrificing today for a better
tomorrow by getting out of your comfort zone and
pushing yourself past perceived limitations by sticking
it out when things get tough by using your pain as fuel to drive you
to success by doing whatever it takes
the struggle it's very simple the attitude you have when facing
struggles and obstacles is what determines whether you
will be successful if you're going to commit the next two
three four years of your life to your education
then your attitude is everything being able to keep studying despite the
adversity thrown at you you fail an exam keep studying you argue
with your friends keep studying you have money problems
keep studying you keep on marching on through
the struggle the chaos the frustration the
procrastination the disappointment the anger the regret
when all that is there but you keep studying through it all
you know you have the discipline to be a successful person
it's the ability to know that even though at the time you feel overwhelmed
and overpowered you know deep down that it too
shall pass you will find a way you will keep studying to chase your goal
to make you proud to make your family proud
through thick and thin you will continue studying
you
