Re: High-Level Thinker, Low-Level Student
I sure can relate, Macchabee. And here's a fun solution:
Bets. That's the answer. Bet your peers that if you finish a task you get their 20-200 (pounds, dollars, yuan, rupees, yen. What ever currency you have per peer), this way you'll be willing to try harder, and so will your peers. And if you fail, you lose 20-200. Or you can get them to do better things, like get them to eat bread from the floor (if other way around, you're in danger and gotta try harder or hide). Though if everyone does fine, then everyone's safe. I haven't tried this solution, but I sure would do my work if my wallet or health was in danger. |

Re: High-Level Thinker, Low-Level Student
idk i just think about my parents and how screwing up school would waste their efforts
i dunno. really though, you need to set goals. try to visualize your future so you know what you need to get there "intelligence" helps you do well in school, but there's a ton of people who aren't that intelligent but do well in school because they're determined |

Re: High-Level Thinker, Low-Level Student
The betting solution did not work (mostly bc my classmates also had no money)
But also I'm now successful only because I focused on what I was interested in. (Dropped out and instead worked hard in the industry that I wanted to part of) Focus on what you want to do, and even if you got bad grades, it doesn't matter in the long run if the thing you want to do doesn't require triple A's in history class. Research what kind of resumes/portfolios are accepted for the career you want, and make a game plan on how to get to there, like a flow chart. There's always another route, a third option (4th, 5thm etc.) to getting to your end goal. Just in reference to eating bread off the floor. I wouldn't want to eat a potential health hazard lol Replying a decade later because I forgot I could go back to old threads on here haha |
