Lesson 1: The Principles of Learning

Here are some tips from exceptional students:

• Have a goal in mind. Don’t underestimate your own abilities if your goal is important.

• Be self-motivated. The greatest thrill is meeting your own expectations.

• Don’t be overly concerned about your peers.

• Be familiar with time and stress management that suits you. Plan your priorities. Stick with what you can handle and be realistic about what you can accomplish.

• Don’t procrastinate. Do homework as soon as it has been assigned so you don’t get back-logged.

• Be flexible. Save some time to relax and have fun as a balance to your work load.
