Finals Heebie Jeebies!


It's 5 days before the start of our much dreaded final examinations. This whole finals prepping up thing is tormenting me. I don't know what subject will I start studying first. Shall I start with the minor subjects? or go straight and delve on the hardcore ones?  This has been my problem every exams and until now it hasn't been resolved. As I contemplate on my decision, I end up doing nothing at all. Procrastination overrules my what-might-have-been productive hours.  

A lot of self-motivation have been used already. In fact, I even tried bribing myself a couple of times with sweet treats like ice cream, cake, chocolate or milk tea in exchange of finishing at least one chapter of my Security Analysis book or Managerial Economics handouts. But all these things just wouldn't work well enough for me. I kept on blaming the television, internet and my sleeping pattern for being such a big distraction. But then, I realized that my ultimate enemy is just myself and my lack of self-discipline towards studying.

Now that I fully acknowledge my faults, I know now how to deal with it this time. I hope that my hardwork and perseverance would bear fruit as I start changing for the betterment of my grades. And as a promise to myself, I'll try to keep the momentum going.

I'm a dreamer like most of everyone else. What makes us distinctive is having our own unique stories to be told. And I believe that I am born to succeed. My conviction and drive to reach the zenith of success will bring me to where I see myself in the future
