A WHILE STUDYING INITIATIVE

Know your Fears (Phase 1): Now Going On

Solve Your Fears(Phase 2) : NEXT WEEK 7 DAY LONG DISCUSSION(2nd August to 8th August)

Fight your Fears(Phase 3) : 7 DAY LONG SELF ASSESMENT (9th August To 15th August)

Sometime Back I asked myself what is Life?

I was answered by a corner of my mind. It reads

"Life is Giving your Best

In what you Love

Even If it Fails

Don't Fear to Get Up."

There's an Saying from a Chinese Military General Sun Tzu If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

Well Most of us are Studying, And Trust me when I say that sometimes its really really tough, Sometimes it Just Goes over your head and you just wanna QUIT IT! Like I Have Had Enough of your BEEEP (CENSORED lol)

So here I came out with this crazy plan to ask you each and every one of you, Two Questions?

(Don't worry No-matter how old you are. You'll be able to answer cause I know that you have gone through phases sometime in your life. Dude its Normal!)

So I say to you, lets #FACEIT! Today here #RightNow!

Questions

>What is that Number 1 Problem YOU face when you are studying?(Mine Being Distraction)

>What is that Number 1 Fear YOU Have when the word study comes in your head?(Fear that I will end up doing nothing)

Ask yourself and when you get that RAW answer Post it out Here.

And as a Community we will face it.

Interesting thread, Sam. heart

My number problem is, believe it ... Procrastination is without doubt one of the biggest enemies you will face as a student. Also sometimes my depression hits me so hard, it becomes very difficult to give proper concentrations. At the end, I try to manage it.

Then my number one fear word, of course "future". Always makes me so worry about this and nervous indeed.

Procrastination Thank you @Kash Will definitely work on that.

Really good point. I think what a lot of us call procrastination is often lack of motivation due to depression. Lack of motivation, lack of energy, fears of failure, the future, and the ultimate point of having and completing n education--I think many of us have felt a combination of all of these things at one time or another. If you get to the root of why you're procrastinating and address that, the problem will go away on it's own. Best of luck to you, and to all of you.

A uniquely interesting thread, lovely Sam, thank you for creating it!

Number one study problem: procrastination and distraction, for definite. I keep delaying and avoiding it, not because it can be boring (I enjoy learning!), but out of fear that I'll disappoint others. Concentration is also a problem.

Number one study fear: I'm going to cheat here and give more than one ;) 1- Disappointing others. 2- Not being good enough. 3- The future ahead. 4- Exam worries.

A fight of survival!

Love you.

Intriguing post, one that really touches the foresight of what fears we channel inside of ourselves. In truth my mine problem is believing in myself, I've had this issue for as long as I can remember. I've never seen anything good about myself or say anything good about myself either. Every time I get a little self confidence just one nasty comment and I'm back where I began. My fear: Letting others down. I feel as though despite my mother telling me that one day I'll achieve my goals as long as I believe in myself, but seeing as I don't I fear I never will, thus my fear and problem are like a vicious cycle. Sometimes the feeling is so unbearable that it feels like I'm suffocating from the inside out.

> What is that Number 1 Problem YOU face when you are studying?

Lack of motivation. It's so hard at times to do my best, especially with a lot of things going on and zero willing to study.

> What is that Number 1 fear YOU have when the word study comes in your head?

I'm afraid it won't be worth it, I will still be a disappointment to my parents (they're never satisfied) and I won't have the motivation to do it.

Beautiful post! I made a few edits for grammatical corrections, I hope you don't mind!

My number one challenge is feeling overly ambitious and not having the funds to get through college the way I would like. It has been expanded and extended due to finances, so I have had to leave and return intermittently. I love school, and wish I could attend exclusively.

My number one fear is never getting my degree due to the nature of my path, or receiving anything less than an A on my transcript. I currently have four A's and a B thanks to that no good, very bad, and indomitable subject we call Algebra. :P

Great conversation starter! I will share in Group Support. Thanks!
