Ask HN: Good "How to study" articles? Hi, I just graduated High School this summer, and i'm really anxious going into University. Right now i'm trying to get rid of my "slacker" mindset and focus more on being disciplined on getting tasks done (as in goals and such). I have read an article here about "trying not to think you're smarter than everyone". Well the author of this article pretty much sums up that, if you walk in to class, try and be the person that doesn't think you are better than everyone else, and it forces you to study harder. I really like that article and i forgot to bookmark it. There were other useful things in that article and it would be really awesome if someone knew what article I'm talking about. It's a small thing to ask, but any advice on how to get rid of this "slacker" mindset? So far reading articles on how to study helps, I just want to know if anyone here in HN ever got rid of their "slacker" mindset. edit: forgot to mention, I am going into the Computer Science Program in my University. |
