think about it right now what are you going to do today that will take you one
step closer to becoming who you want to become whatever you want to be take
positive action as soon as you wake up you want those good grades you have to
work hard to get them you want that large bank account you have to work hard
to get it you have to work hard to get it it's about positioning yourself to be
the best version of yourself you need to believe you can achieve it and then go
out and achieve it too many people out there have dreams of being a millionaire
but have a $100.00 mind if you're going to dream then your actions need to match
your dreams you have to have the hustle and the grind that matches big dreams
big hustle they go together they can't be separated you want to be great you
want to be special you want to be wealthy you want to be a millionaire you
want to be the best doctor the best lawyer the best surgeon the best
engineer whatever your best is going to be you've got to get up and you gotta
change you got to do something that you never thought you could do go ahead and
rewrite your own history your mind is everything if you don't believe you can
do something then you can't whatever your goal is you have to get there even
though people are going to say that you can't do it even though people are going
to throw all kinds of obstacles your way even though your friends are going to be
out partying all night while you stay at home
studying you need to go all out you need to immerse yourself in school all you're
doing every single day is studying you can be what you want to be if you work
hard at it you can be where you want to be oftentimes we make excuses as to why
we are not where we want to be why we're not what we want to be why we're not who
we want to be and there is no excuse to not let your greatness shine through
there is no excuse to not give your very best you have two choices in this world
you can make excuses or you can study and guess what excuses are what separate
you from owning the life that you want
study in silence let your success make the noise your success isn't recognized
when you're studying until the early hours of the morning it's not recognized
when you're the first person walking into the library at 7:00 in the morning
yet this is where your success is made
it's during the daily habits and routine when you're putting in the discipline
and building your work ethic on a daily basis and applying these skills
consistently this is what will push you to the next level it's the discipline
that you cultivate in the lonely nights of studying in the early mornings to
have the results you've got to be willing to do what everyone else is not
willing to do you have to go places where everyone else is not willing to go
if you look at the all-time grains all throughout history the top at 0.1% the
true leaders the Titans look at what they do they don't seek short-term
pleasure in everything they do that's what the 99% do the top is 0.1% do the
opposite because they understand that if you want to have a great life look at
what the 99% do and do the opposite
and if you are truly in the 0.1% be prepared your life will change like you
can't even imagine you can help people on a scale that is unfathomable you can
buy cars and houses like you didn't think was possible but be prepared as
you start changing the world you will be called a freak a misfit greedy they'll
say that you just got lucky but remember this if you don't have people hating on
you then you're not there yet you can be world class or you can fit in
with the world you don't get to do both and I'll leave you with the words of
Matthew Hussey because this video was made for all the crazy people the
irrational z' for everyone that doesn't want to just live an average life in
order to craft a life that you love more than the life that you have today you
have to start being a little irrational reasonable people adapt themselves to
the world unreasonable people attempt to adapt the world to themselves all
progress therefore depends on unreasonable people so you have two
options right now you can either be one of life's reasonable people or you can
be someone who's slightly unreasonable somebody who demands more from life and
if you haven't already started you can start right now starting with one small
decision how many hours are you planning on studying tonight or tomorrow
ask yourself that right now how many hours are you planning on studying
that's great now double it that's how many hours you will study tonight it's
an easy first step to make so simple but it can kick you out of your comfort zone
go with the non-traditional path the road less traveled
be a leader be revolutionary your educational journey is going to be hard
I can promise you that there are two paths you can take the easy road or the
hard road if you choose the hard road it means you choose to study when your
friends are out partying you start writing your report when the rest of the
class don't even know the deadline yet you're already awake at 5:00 a.m. on
your way to the library when the rest of your friends are still sleeping if you
can find enough focus and motivation to do these hard things the things that
everyone else struggles with then your educational journey will be easy the
grades will be easy the scholarships will be easy but it's a choice that you
have to consciously make you have to step up and take that path and it will
be lonely at times it will feel like you're the only one doing this but
that's the whole point the whole idea of this is to be standing at the top of the
mountain while everyone else is still at the bottom because you took the path
that so many people are unwilling to take
okay so you know where you want to be at the top of that mountain but why aren't
you there yet why is it that you're stopping yourself from getting there why
is it that you just settle for the grades that you're getting because doing
well at school and the University it's not easy it's difficult to get good
grades it takes a lot of focus a lot of
sacrifice a lot of late nights and early mornings but it's absolutely worth it
you are in charge of the life you live and when you are in charge you study
hard regardless of how you're feeling whether you're feeling lazy tired
stressed frustrated bored it doesn't matter this doesn't stop you
it's the easiest way to turn your grades around changing your attitude about your
studying it's when you decide that the grades you're achieving right now are
not representative of what you're able to achieve because what you'll notice is
that these students that are getting the top grades their attitude towards their
studying is completely different to those that are achieving the lowest
grades attitude is more important than circumstances more important than
failures more important than successes more important than money it's even more
important than talent or skill and we have a choice every day what attitude
are we going to have when approaching our studying
you can't change what grades you are given up to now you can't change the
exams that you failed but you can change the attitude you have towards your
studying today and you know it's going to be hard you know there's going to be
ups and downs but that's what's going to make it worth it in the end if you
really want it enough when it comes to graduation day you're going to look in
the mirror and say I did this despite all the obstacles and setbacks I did it
and that feeling you will have of accomplishment and triumph will be like
nothing you've ever experienced it's a feeling you will take with you for the
rest of your life so when it's time to study and your automatic reaction is to
fight it and procrastinate take a few minutes to think about it think about
what you're doing that small decision of choosing to procrastinate is you
choosing to settle with what you have push past it
study why are you only getting average grades how can so many people in your
class get better grades than you they're probably not smarter than you and even
if they are that's only a small part of a far bigger picture the biggest factor
here in influencing whether your grades will be average or if your grades will
be among the best in your class comes down to one thing the amount of effort
you put into your studying and that doesn't just mean opening a textbook and
reading for as long as possible until you feel tired it's more than that it
means asking the professor questions practicing with past paper questions
following a study schedule religiously going to classes eating healthily
staying hydrated doing exercise daily getting seven to eight hours of sleep a
night it's all these things as well as studying 10 hours a day if that's what's
required studying 10 hours a day is pointless if you're exhausted from
getting 2 hours of sleep the night before you're binging on junk food and
you're missing all your classes that's not the point of all this it's the
attitude you need to have that will only come with phenomenal grades this
attitude can lead to new opportunities open doors lead to scholarships boost
your confidence and even improve your social life so if you've got a problem
with getting average or below average grades then do something about it before
you know it your formal education will come to an end and you'll be thrown into
the world of work so don't waste these years make the most of them that means
no wasting time no procrastinating the earlier you
decide you're going to give your studying everything you've got the
better life you're going to have believe me at two hours you were going to spend
watching a film on Netflix will be far better spent studying
in the long term these small decisions to study instead of procrastinating add
up you're more likely to be happier healthier and definitely wealthier I'm
not saying relaxing and chillin in front of Netflix is always bad but if you're
procrastinating for four or more hours a day when you know you should be studying
I'm saying that right there needs to be fixed
it's the grade a students that you should be chasing you know who I'm
talking about the ones that seem to do well in every single exam that's thrown
at them but you don't see the hours and hours sitting at their desk with just
their study lamp on while everyone else is doing things that don't matter you
don't see the parties they didn't attend or the films they haven't seen because
they were so focused on studying it's behind the scenes in private where the
grind and hustle takes place so what are you going to do about it I'll tell you
what you're gonna do observe them learn from that study them this is your time
this is your moment no one else is going to make it happen only you have control
of your grades or car work smart be consistent seven days a week no excuses
no procrastination you have it within you you just have to find it and if you
keep this up within a few weeks you'll see your grades increase within a few
months you'll be among the top students in your class trust me try it
you
