Quick story of how I went from academic disaster to academic success.<br><br>---<br><br>I enjoy self improvement and have been learning new ways to improve my learning, focussing and use of time. I find that if i can enjoy the process of self improvement and getting better at things, then I don't feel guilty for not doing it because it is enjoyable and I want to do it.<br><br>From academic disaster to academic success.<br><br>(Main reasons why I was in the shit: I could never focus, so bad time management and I enabled myself to become lazy and relied heavily on drugs to focus and get things done). <br><br><br>* 2019 - I was expelled in my second semester of my degree for failing too badly. I know it's embarassing, but Its okay. <br>I went back to full time work and started to get my shit together. I was on drugs and had no life, it was all work and video games. I started to work on myself, I stopped going to the pub every single day after work, I started to study again. The goal was to get back into uni, but I also focussed on self-improvement.<br>I started to focus on my time and how i enjoy it. I started to learn new things, like coding and instruments. I started to do more, without relying on drugs.<br><br>* 2020 - I got back into uni and started to study like a boss. I found the time management technique, called "Pomodoro Technique" I also started to make more time for study and the gym. I got rid of my druggie friends and the people that were bad for me. I made the decision to just work and focus on my uni work.<br>* 2021 - I was doing well, I was proud of myself. I continued to learn more about how to study, I experimented with various time management techniques and I was getting better at getting things done. I was also doing better at uni, as well. I started to do more, started to go back to the pub and meet up with friends.<br>* 2022 - Everything is going well, I am focussing on my studies and self-improvement. The process of self-improvement is enjoyable and I am getting better at various things. I am proud of myself.<br><br>This is my story of going from academic disaster to academic success. I am proud of myself and I hope you find value in this story.<br><br>​
