Welcome to Day 5 of The Studying Jump-Start Challenge – the free 5-day challenge I’m running Aug 30th – Sep 3rd to help you fire up your motivation, boost your confidence and improve your study skills ready for the new academic year.
Get involved by listening to this episode for my expert guidance then come join the party over on Instagram for my support. Listen to the episode for more details.
In today’s challenge task we’re going to look ahead. It’s time to think about what you want to achieve with your studies – the grades you’d love to graduate with. Now, goal setting can be tricky as it stirs up a lot of mindset gremlins around fear of failure, expectations, self-doubt…etc. So we’re going to unpick why setting big study goals is scary, and then I’m going to walk you through my simple process for setting study goals confidently.
