Many people often have the same idea when it comes to starting the semester right. Tips include: staying organized, planning ahead, getting involved, etc. Personally, I agree with all of these tips, however, there is one crucial piece of the puzzle that must be met in order to succeed: having determination. From personal experience, I have found myself performing all of the steps necessary to do well in the course but still not succeeding at a level of which I would have liked to. I simply just went through the actions as if they were an assembly line without much thought or determination. I believe that having a determined mindset is a quality that will carry you far in life. You can try as much as you can to do well in a course but without the determination to do so, without the desire to want that outcome, you’re simply just not going to do well. We must actually want to truly succeed in order to do so. To have a determined mind means that you want what’s at the end of that tunnel, it means that you are going to do whatever it takes in order to get there. Also being determined won’t make everything you do seem like a chore, but rather it will treat it as a part of your journey to the destination you wish to reach.
So there it is, the greatest tip that I could give anyone who wishes to succeed in not only the beginning of their semester, but also their life. Remember that it’s okay to lose hope sometimes. Very few people are able to maintain that determination but that’s okay. You always have the option of giving up but with the power of determination, you can choose to get back up and try again.
