Do you self identify as an underachiver?

Have you ever asked yourself or been asked “Why don’t you just …..?” or “How come you are (not) …..?” about studying? Do you ever feel frustrated with yourself due to a lack of results? Sometimes, you are 100% on the task, and yet nothing happens, as if you were not motivated. Sometimes, you work hard, and for some reason or another, you don’t seem to get it right, and your hard work doesn’t pay off.

If you think you are better than your results but don’t know how to improve because the advice you get is apparently not what you need, try hearing me out. I’ll take you through key aspects of learning and hopefully you will learn something new about yourself.

This webpage is first a dense flyover of “learning for studying”

  • One part is on learning as information processing in the nervous system.
  • One part is on the brain’s hormones and self regulation.
  • One part is on both the spoken and unspoken expectations in the educational system to you.

With these three aspects of learning when studying, we will dive into topics like attention, motivation, extraordinary study skills, and memory. The separation of the topics are artificial, but expedient.

This website is for you to be inspired on your learning journey. I hope you will find the information more useful than confusing.

One resource with limits is your energy.

Another resource with limits is our attention.
