In the words of Thomas Huxley, the biologist referred to as Darwin’s bulldog, “The most valuable result of education is the ability to make yourself do things that you have to do and needs to be done, whether you like it or not.” Work on self-motivation, smart selection of necessary tasks (not always the pleasant ones, but the unavoidable ones at best), prioritize your goals, make a calendar of things you have to do and at what time, then stick to these in a disciplined manner in order to achieve them all. With this attitude, even small-town students from Colorado and Idaho have gained honors (45% of them from rural backgrounds) as developing practical time management skills helps one keep track of studies, social life and other important tasks with minimal pressure. Take a leaf from your country cousins – and you can be a winner too!
