Ya I'm failing Eco again...
Ya that's what is going to happen. I wonder if I will even write as much as the two sides I did in the last exam.
Anyway this whole thought got me thinking about how discipline is so important. Sure these are internal college exams and don't count for much but it's a wrong reason not to study hard enough. The fact that I signed up for the course, I should have some dedication toward it. I could always say that I am so much busier with work and that it needs more of my time etc. But that's a BS excuse. It's not super difficult to take 30 minutes a day to read everything I need to study. It's not hard to sit on the weekends and get in 4 hours of studying. But I don't do that. Neither do most of the people I know.
Sure effort put in is directly related to perceived benefits. But commitment is a whole different field. If you decided to do something, there has to be some level of dedication. Even if you realised that you made a mistake right at the start about the commitment.
Commitment...discipline...dedication...perspective...maturity....
Okay so yes I know I am doing everything and anything but hit my books which I should be.
Ill go study :( [It was never this tough - I have changed]

Got to study got to study got to study...
Yup I have got to study.
Who would have thought going back to books would be so tough. I mean I use to be a good student. Super lazy but still good. Sure I could have done much better if I had worked harder but that's a different story. Now I find that it's so difficult to concentrate. I guess when you are a student the core work of your life is to study so you end up doing it well but when you have other 'jobs' and have to study at the same time, the other work gets priority.
Anyway I hate our education system because only now when I work do I understand half the non sense that I studied because it all was in my books when I was 16.
My question is - What is the point of doing something when there is no real significance of doing that thing, at that point in time? It's like reading Don Quixote when you are 10.
