Manage episode 523685196 series 3534316
You had a study system that worked perfectly. Then suddenly... it didn't. What happened?
In this episode, I'm breaking down the #1 reason why legitimate study systems stop working: developmental transitions. Whether you're moving from high school to college, freshman to upper-level courses, or undergrad to grad school, the academic demands don't just get harder…they fundamentally change.
I'm walking you through the three major shifts that happen at every academic transition. Then I'm giving you three concrete strategies to level up your study methods so they match where you are now.
If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still not getting the results you used to, this episode will help you understand what's really happening and what to do about it.
In this episode of Learn and Work Smarter, I'm giving you the truth about why study systems fail and exactly how to scale yours up.
