This article helped me understand that believing that you can do better or do more does really make a difference in your performance. Also, how important being focused is. Sometimes I will try to read for a class and watch tv or talk on the phone or text at the same time and I think I just read that whole page no problem, but when I finish and try to think about what I just read, I can't remember anything. I need to set aside specific time for certain tasks and not try to do too much at one time. I think that will help me be more productive and efficient. This article also made me realize how much I fall victim to not really learning things. I learn in a shallow manner only to take that quiz or test, then I forget it all the next day. It is also hard when we have the world at our fingertips (google, phones, computers) that make me want to just look everything up instead of really learn it. It is also important to sleep enough, eat well, exercise and take care of myself to be successful in school and at work.
