The Turning Point


One thing that was very useful to me from this week’s reading is becoming a deep thinker. “If one of your goals at college is to become a deeper, more nuanced thinker, then you need time – lots of time” by study hacks. This quote from study hack meant a lot to me. Do not just do the bare minimum when studying or doing your homework. You need to go above and beyond if you truly want to be great in your field of study. Also putting in the extra work help you understand the topic of study better for class.

                When I start studying I will try and spend a little bit extra time of studying. I will use that tip as soon as possible. Skimming through my work will not work in college. Most people will slip through the cracks and pass classes without studying but, that will not work in college. Also putting in the extra work can help you understand your field of study better and be more engaged in class discussions because, you know what your professor is speaking about.

                Another great quote is “the students who make great mental leaps, and really become more sophisticated thinkers, are those who have more than enough time to think about, work on, grapple with, and revel in their coursework” By study hacks. I believe to be the best you need to train like the best. The hardest workers usually have the best results and seeing this quote just reinforces my beliefs. The reason we come to college is to learn and master the fields of our study to the best of our ability. The only way to do this is to put in hours of work to accomplish your goals and be just that much better then the next man. This article is a great article for people to read when they are prepping for anything.

All quotes have come from this website:
