Feel what you would feel if you have better grades. Name this feeling. Amplify this feeling until it becomes very pleasant. Now, you are going to add some new feelings upon this first feeling. Do you remember a time when you were really excited about something When you have this excitemant in you, add it to the first very pleasant feeling as if you put a coat of excitement over the coat of very pleasant state.

But something holds you back. You need to make this second step.... 2. You need to get rid of the beliefs that hold you back Consider the law of belief: whatever you believe becomes your reality. Once you understand and appropriate this belief in yourself, you discover that you can do many things and especially have better grades. Throughout your life you learn. Its a never-ending process. School is just the beginning of this process with its special rules and rewards, which can sometimes seem unfair. You begin to change by being aware that you are a potential genius and that you CAN do better and you WILL. What do you learn from having bad grades Consider that it is an opportunity to learn. And most important, its a chance to learn that youre not the problem; its only your strategies. Thats why you need to take the last lesson... You need to learn how to learn 3. You need new strategies. If something doesnt work, do something else. First, be aware of your learning style. Are you visual, auditory, kinesthetic Remember that you have multiple intelligences and when you use them as much as possible you increase your chances of having better results. Have the end in mind. Act as if you already had the solution. Now you only need to fill in the blanks. If you already know where to go, your brain will help you find the solutions. Use mind maps, movement and imagination. Learning how to learn is a necessity for children and adults to perform better in life. These three steps are important to succeed in school. One step takes care of your beliefs, another of your emotions and the other one of your strategies to have better grades and to perform better in life.
