School Smart

Relevancy

• One of the biggest mistakes we make is that if we don't see the relevancy in something, we assume it's not there
• Active participation in classes you may not like builds stronger intellectual muscle

Boredom

• The faster your thinking is going, the more prone you are to be bored
• By slowing down your thinking you will become less bored

Procrastination

• Procrastination is putting off something that is unpleasant or burdensome
• Getting started generates motivation and provides you with the energy to complete the task

Listening

• The secret to listening is effective listening
• When you notice you are not listening to something you need to be, tell yourself to set your other thoughts aside and put your full attention to listening
