Acquiring the
Habits of Highly Successful Students
Part 5
2-
Success is about achieving goals, and therefore is a relative notion. Highly successful
are those which set realistic goals, and attain them with the proper investment
of resource. Thus, not necessarily the student with the best grades is the most
successful learner. Now we have stated what a successful student is
like. Good.
If you have
negative entries in your list of driving forces, it’s time to improve things
quite a bit. First, identify other topics that you indeed like a lot, not
necessarily related to studying. Perhaps you like pets, to cook, or to play videogames. Now, try to establish associations
or links between these favorite activities of yours and the subject of study
that you dislike. For example, let’s assume that you dislike literature, but
love your humongous pit-bull “Casino
Joe” then you could start thinking how your dog would fit as a character into
the novel you have to analyze: what role
would be and how he would interact with other characters.
