You never would know what you’re doing to yourself,not until the damage is done. I was once a victim and as a matter of fact am still a victim. Wonder why i kept telling myself i can’t do well in maths class,whereas no one can contend with me when it comes to English. I discovered my prowess in English language when i was a very young boy because i painstakingly read all books writting in english whenever i come across one,but when it has to do with science books,i just would open it for the fun of looking at pictures.
This continued until late last year when i discovered that i was wasting away in science class cos i couldn’t do well at every science subjects that involved calculations. For the fact that i was about taking my final exams,i decided to dedicate more time to my maths lessons,and verily i must say unto you,it paid off,cos right now,there are only limited topics i can’t handle in maths.
In essence what i’m trying to say is that you need to DISCOVER your hidden potentials in areas of difficulties and afterwards find the WILL POWER and SELF-MOTIVATION to achieve what seemed impossible.
You wonder why i said earlier on that i’m still a victim,it’s because there are still some subjects that i can’t really boast of up to five topics,but thank God i stummbled upon this article,for it as kindle the spirit within me to soar higher academically.
Let your situations speak to you.
Great work man,nice job.

The average general pep talk from the bum next door. Shallow without a lot of debt.

If you say so

Decided not to elaborate or ramble too much. the balance between length and completeness. felt right when i wrote it so i posted it. will elaborate in the future or in the comments if you want something cleared up?

…and needing motivation, will power, and self-discipline is just a choice you’ve made about what you need in order to actually take some action. it’s a criterion that you’ve created. you can wait to get more motivation, will power and self-discipline if you want though

…and i see where you’re going with the “need” versus “want” but to me there’s no difference. a need is just a want that you’ve decided to commit to (usually because you think you have to). A need is just a want that you’ve decided to do – the uncertainty is taken out – funny how you get the “needs” done in life and seldom the “wants” :p

thanks for the criticism – the constructive bits at least.

all the best

Unfinished. I guess you were a bit lazy too
We all know that JUST DO IT is not an answer.
Before JUST DO IT you need to have motivation, will power, and self-discipline.
Example with your friend is not a good one; there was more NEED than WANT.
In any case, great post, but incomplete unless you look into motivation.
