- Hello and welcome.
I'm Roger Philipp of UWorld Roger CPA Review.
Now, today I wanna talk about something
many CPA exam candidates struggle with,
finding motivation to study for the CPA exam.
Now, whether you're a college student, working professional,
parent or all of the above,
I know it can be difficult to stay motivated to study
for the CPA exam,
especially when you're juggling all of life's priorities.
But remember, the sooner you pass the CPA exam,
the sooner you can reap all the rewards of licensure
that include things like higher salary, job security,
career opportunities and more.
Now, here are some ways to stay motivated to start
or to continue your CPA journey.
First of all,
build a study strategy that sets you up for success.
Now, let's start by setting up a study schedule
and stick to it.
That means you're gonna study at the same time,
day after day, every day.
For example, when I studied, I'd start at let's say 6:00 PM.
The first day it took me 20 minutes to get in,
then 15 minutes, then 10 minutes to get into studying.
So as long as you start studying the same time,
the same every day, it'll help your study schedule.
Another thing, get study buddies and form a support network.
For example, I would study with a buddy of mine.
We'd go to the library and study our own stuff.
But if I had a question, I would ask him,
and he would explain it to me and vice versa.
And you never really understand something
until you try to explain it to somebody else.
So it's a great way to make sure
you're really understanding the concepts.
If you're working from home a few days a week,
then take advantage of your time you're not commuting
to do what?
Study, study, study.
Give yourself small rewards along the way.
For example, maybe you get through a chapter or a section.
Hey, let's go get a froyo, or let's go for a walk,
or let's do some pushups, right?
Stay in good shape.
Lastly, find a program that keeps you motivated and engaged
in your studies.
Now at UWorld Rogers CPA Review,
we help you master difficult accounting topics
on a deeper level.
That way you truly understand the material
which ensures you excel, not just on the CPA exam,
but beyond in your career.
Now, how do we do this?
Well we do this through, first of all, visual learning,

Motivational video lectures, those are taught by hey,
yours truly, that's me.
Now, these video lectures are both energetic
and informational
in order to help you understand the material
and stay engaged in your studies.
Time saving technology.
Now with innovative and adaptive technology
that improves your learning outcomes.

Full mobile course access.
This allows you to pass faster and maximize your study time
with convenient on-the-go access,

Now remember, time is money.
What does that mean?
It means there's no better time to study for the CPA exam
than now.
Hunker down and make studying a priority.
Remember, if you study, you will pass.
Now, it's okay not to have a social life,
not that you ever had one before, right?
But make studying a priority.
Now, the longer you wait, the more difficult it will be.
It's a highly academic exam
so the closer you are to being a student,
the better you'll do,
and the more likely you'll pass the first time.
Now, the faster you pass, the bigger the firm bonus,
and the faster you can advance your career
to get bigger salaries, to get promotions
and industry exploration.
Now, the CPA credential is in high demand.
Firms are still expecting you to have your CPA certificate.
Now, it offers things like job security,
especially during an economic downturn
because accountants are always in high demand,
and it makes you more competitive and marketable.
Remember the importance of the credential.
It offers career stability, marketability and flexibility.
It is considered the gold standard in accounting,
and it will unlock your career potential.
It gives you increased knowledge and expertise.
It's also recognized and welcomed by markets and employers
globally throughout the world.
You can help make the world a better place by being a CPA,
right?
♪ We are the world ♪
♪ We are ♪
Anyway.
Passing the CPA exam will change your life.
Now remember your why.
Why am I doing this?
Also, take the next big step in your career
because it gives you a sense of accomplishment.
It opens up doors to new job opportunities.
It gives you the ability to provide a better
and more secure life for your family.
Now, for me,
getting my CPA allowed me to help hundreds of thousands
of students accomplish their goal of becoming a CPA.
In conclusion, remember, the CPA exam is not an IQ test.
You don't have to be a genius to pass the CPA exam,
but it's a test of discipline.
If you study, you will pass.
Heck, if it were easy, everyone would be a CPA.
Now you're capable.
You're smart. You're strong.
You can do this. You've got this.
Good luck and thank you.
