Pursuit of Excellence and Success

Bonnie St. John Deane

Winner in Disabled Olympics, Harvard and Oxford Degree holder, White House Official on National Economic Council

Who or what motivates you?

Her answer: "I motivate me."

Her method: Five step exercise.

Five steps

1.What are your payoffs? List down the benefits or rewards from achieving or completing the task.

2. Find deeper meaning in your goals. Find compelling reasons for completing your goal.

3. Get your dreams at half price. Find more goals which can be reached with the work that you are putting in for reaching this goal. Work with a friend. Develop a plan to achieve the goal efficiently with less cost.

4. Stop underestimating your odds for success: Underestimating your odds to succeed can stop you dead in your tracks. Believe in your success till the end of the task.

Err on the side of optimism. Spend less time with people who discourage you on the task or goal. But don't just believe in positive thinking. Investigate the odds, have a real confidence that they are within your teach and always work on improving the odds.

5. Change your real odds or winning or improving odds: Learn from people who have succeeded in reaching the goal before.

Concentrate on 3 Points Every Hour

Try to identify three important points every hour and try to think of them twice or thrice in that hour.

This may an easy way to accumulate knowledge throughout the day.

These three points can be repeated also after some days. You can recall these three points very easily and along with them many other points you learned during that hour will also be recalled by the memory system of yours.

Learn some points very very well and many more points will come out of your by an association mechanism.

Develop systematic study habits

Developing systematic study habits will be of help to you in your JEE studies.

Commit yourself to JEE

Commit yourself to JEE as early as possible.

A JEE selection is as good as representing India at olympics. It is equivalent to becoming an MLA. At this point in time, your JEE selection is definitly equivalent to such achievements. It gives you the potential to achieve bigger things in future. Whether you will become an MLA or MP depends on how you use the opportunity in subsequent days.

I am writing this similarity so that you can feel the importance of your venture.

Early in life, secure your ranking in the society. Then you only have to maintain it from a position of advantage. Others have to challenge you from a position of disadvantage. They require three times effort to displace you from your rank.

Ganeshaya Namah

Today is Ganesh Chaturdhi.
The prayer is just completed.

It is an auspicious time to start this new blog. The blog is started to provide some inputs that facilitate learning for IIT JEE 2011 by students who are currently in X class.

The initiative by me to write on iit jee to help my daughter to some extent in her preparation has progressed well till now with around 25,000 visitors visiting various blogs related to IIT JEE. My job in the future is more simple because now I have to present the material prepared so far in a format more useful to aspirants. I started recently JEE 2010 blog wherein I am developing a one hour study session plan for chemistry, mathematics and physics. Thus three hours per day is spent in study of new material in each of the subjects. Additional time available is spent on revising lessons studied earlier and doing problems from variety of sources. A six month time schedule can be sufficient for study of entire material of an year. Rest of the time can be utilised for deeper understanding of the subject.
