“Define Your Primary Focus and
Fit Everything Else Around It”
Some call it “Tunnel Vision”, while I simply call it “narrowing the focus” (I actually got that from the Senior Pastor of North Point Church in Atlanta). Get into the zone my friend, because once you do, you will become the predator and the classwork will become the prey.
First, ask yourself this question before you even register for the class: “How important will I allow this class to become to me?” You see, I have watched students walk into a class and attempt to treat it like their less-than-intensive counterparts. You know what classes I am talking about: those classes in which your grade is reflected by simply showing up to class or regurgitating what you memorized the night before…the classes that we like to call GPA builders. But there are classes that are just not that simple. You have to make that class a…*gasp*…priority.
What does that mean? It means that defeating this class is more important than ___________ (Fill In The Blank). That class will have to become ranked. If not, then it will find itself on the bottom pile of life, just a little higher than your final grade. So what do you do? Step 1 is coming soon…
