when you make that mindset shift that you're studying not
to pass an exam but to grow as a person and to become
the best possible version of yourself that's the mindset that's required
because studying for an exam is a short-term goal studying for growth
is a long-term goal if you're studying for an exam as soon
as that exam is over you'll probably forget a lot of what you
studied but if you have a long-term goal in mind
then you're working on improving your work ethic that will be with you for a
lifetime
you'll be improving your focus your organization skills
your learning skills your research skills
your problem solving skills dealing with stress
dealing with procrastination dealing with sleep and diet
and all these skills that you're refining when you're studying for an
exam you'll have with you for the rest of
your life
there's 24 hours in a day the only thing that separates the people that win
and the people that lose is what we do with those hours
you want to win you want to pass your exams
you want to come out on top or do you want to let everyone overtake you
because if you do you have to stop being so laid back about your life
you've got to stop walking so slowly and have some urgency in your step
stop leaving your homework to the day before the deadline
you talk the talk but you don't walk the walk
you gotta stop being so casual you gotta get focused and pick up the pace
the person that wins is the person that is going to take
massive action that doesn't mean increasing your studying by
one hour every other day it means increasing your studying by three
hours every day and that's why most people never realize their personal
greatness because they're not willing to take
massive action because massive action
takes massive sacrifice you've got to develop a sense of urgency
the people around you do you see how slowly they walk
do you see how slowly they do things they have no urgency in their life
but that makes sense because they're average they're too
casual about life therefore they haven't achieved the success that
they're capable of successful students do not negotiate the
sacrifice in their life they don't negotiate the price they're
paying to succeed in their education to get
into the best university to graduate at the top of their class
successful students don't negotiate price
they negotiate worth where could i be in 10 years time if i give my education
everything i've got where could i be financially
what would it mean for my family what would it mean to
be somebody and once you decide it's worth it to win
once you decide it's worth it to be somebody
then the negotiation stops it might be a year or two years or three
years until you completely transform into someone that wins
but you can decide right now that you're going to walk talk and study
like a different person that's the decision
are you going to keep negotiating a price
or are you going to decide that it is worth it to be somebody
and you're going to take massive action to get there
and when you start to speed your life up and you start to go through life
with the sense of urgency that it deserves
you will begin to see a difference in the things that you're doing
you will begin to realize that netflix series
isn't that interesting after all you'll start to realize
that you actually enjoy studying and learning about new things
you'll see your exam grades increase you have an opportunity right now
this is an opportunity of a lifetime
