I Am And Now All I Want To Do Is Watch The Episodes Rather Than Study For My Exam. But I Love The Dynamic

Okay so I don't know if anyone really needs or even wants to hear this but I thought I'd put my realization out into the world. So school and learning is fucking hard in a normal year and even harder now and that can be really disheartening. I am currently in my first year of college and I was definitely one of the "smart kids" in highschool. And while in high school I picked up this nasty little habit of every time I did something wrong be it a minor mistake like putting a negative where there's not supposed to be one or something more conceptual I would always say immediately afterwards "wow I'm so stupid." And it wasn't true but I really believed it. I thought I wasn't able to make any mistake.

It wasn't until I said that in front of a teacher after they explained a college level consepts to me again that I really had someone look me in the eyes and say "you're not stupid your learning" and ya it's kinda obvious but it never hit me till then.

So end of the vent here's some advice. That teacher corrected me every time I said that until eventually I started saying that was a stupid mistake rather than I'm so stupid. And now you're going to beat the thing that seems really stupid but it works for me anytime I make a mistake and I want to call myself for the things stupid I never play stupid with silly. It certainly gets me some looks in my chemistry class college when I say it but it makes the mistake fun and non-consequential if it's silly. And man has it improved my ability to learn.

The best way to learn, to really learn is to forgive yourself for your mistakes.

So call your mistake silly and then laugh about it and move on. What's a silly little mistake to the rest of your life?

Hope this helps anyone that reads it.

I love this so much
