, Some simple strategies to assist you in becoming an extra-
ordinary student
Defining your vision and planning for success.
Make sure that you are clear about why you are studying.
Without a clear destination of where you are heading, you will not know when you
have arrived. Defining your vision for your life and your studies is not a one-off activity
at the beginning of a three or four year degree, but an on-going reflection of the
horizon.
The next step is to schedule realistic study time. The aim of a study schedule is to
map out how much time you can dedicate to your studies. Try breaking your study
sessions into easy bite-sized sessions with breaks in between of no longer than 10-15
minutes.
Make sure you maximise your time with minimum distractions. As Oprah says, "Doing
the best in this moment puts you in the best position for the next moment"
Strategy number 2: Be flexible
As Mama Glow author Latham Thomas says, "Don't victimise yourself. Learn to shift
from "Woe is me" to "Wow is me!"."
Planning for success comes with its challenges, especially when the unexpected
happens. Instead of boarding the sympathy train, deal with the situation then and
there, and move on. By implementing flexibility in your schedule, you have created
room for life to happen, without jeopardising your vision.
Strategy number 3: Connect with others.
We all think we can do it alone, but honestly, we can't.
We need others, not only for moral support, but also to help us study. Take the time
to get to know others in your classes, or if you are studying through correspondence,
ask the lectures to link you with students doing the same module, or join an
established study group. Connecting with the right study partners gives you
motivation and drives to complete assignments, and moves your performance from
average to extra-ordinary.
Strategy number 4: Schedule in your 30-second dance parties
Celebrate all your achievements, regardless of how small or big they are.
A chapter, a theory, a topic with a 30 second dance party. Get up and celebrate –
move your body. This promotes your self-confidence and boosts your motivation to
get on to the next piece of work. Also give yourself a break when you can’t get
through something. Each piece of work has its own challenges
