Have Tests Coming Up? Read This
By admin. Filed in Law |
Everyone has a friend who they envy a bit in that they seem to need to study very little yet they always seem to do well on their tests. Why is that? And then of course there are those who put hours in every night and never quite achieve as high a result as they were aiming for. Whether you are a person who studies long and hard or you do as little as you can, there are very practical things you can do before an exam that will find your answers flowing freely to you.
Now I’m not talking about some artificial drug you can take to keep you on alert so to speak, because unless you discover your own natural capacity you lose the chance to validate your own doings in the matter. It is obvious at least that some people do seem to do well on tests; it is not true that some people are biologically built to be smarter than others. What is true is that people have the capacity to be open to their own innate brilliance and possibility.
No one would expect that a person should be able to never attend the lectures or open the book and still be able to pass a test. Some people seem to be able to read quickly through their text book listen to the teacher in class never study yet at least get a passing grade.
Others study well but when it comes to taking a test they go blank and just seem so internally stressed that they never do as well as they might do.
Have you ever watched how amazingly sharp and quick witted some people are when they are playing video or sports trivia games and yet in school they are considered slow. Or have you known some who are quite the mathematician yet their English or history and biology classes are lacking. And of course you can find many very successful people who never completed even high school.
Having spent so much of my younger years in the world of sports what you learn is that professional athletes at times come off as not too smart but the amount of intelligence it takes to play at that level would surprise you. Not the retention of information but the capacity to retrieve, anticipate and choose seems almost instinctive. My point is this; everyone has the capacity on any given day to call to the present, the most optimal state of mind for performing on their exams to get the highest possible results. Some might say well they were luckier today than on most.
Fortunately you are more than your test scores. And from this day forward you embark upon a path allowing your inner capacities to naturally unfold. Law of attraction says what you believe about yourself you will attract.
Allow your knowledge to flow by considering these suggestions. First and foremost, let go of any fears or stress emotions you might have. Easier said than done you say. Yes, but at least you acknowledge it does impact your free flowing retrieval of information.
Identify one or two things right now that you are fearful might happen. Did you do that? Perhaps you have thoughts you will get a less than passing grade. Or your parents will freak out or you won’t be accepted to higher education. Maybe you just think people will laugh at you. Whatever they are for you and sometimes they are well hidden, if you can spend but a few minutes with your best friend or mom or dad or teacher and use them to express these considerations, you will indeed release at least a good portion of the grip fear has on you. That will move your score in the right direction. In addition, you can then play with it by creating some different replacement thoughts, like if I do really well I might get interviewed by the mayor, or I’ll have too many choices if I do well or maybe I’ll be offered a great paying job. Just realize they are all made up thoughts coming from the emotions of fear. Imagine happy results and make up more considerations.
Second and maybe the single most important thing is to be joyful and happy throughout the entire process of examinations. Any less emotion is unlikely to help you on your test score or in life for that matter. Life is supposed to be fun. When you are happy and joyful you are living in a condition of freedom and no resistance. Fearful emotions with negative thought chatter can be acknowledged and released, simply breath deeply and locate the center mass of your emotion and allow it to pass though and out of you.
Third, gain a clear vision of the experience along with its emotional feeling that you want to achieve. It is really critical to see that what you want is first an emotional state. Know it and feel it. Everything you want is energy first, emotion first. Know this above all things. This can not be emphasized enough. You are driven by your desire to experience emotional feelings.
So on the night before your exam go to sleep having imagined yourself doing well. See yourself happy and beaming with joy and the feelings of how easily you went though all the elements. Imagine people acknowledging how happy and relaxed you are. Be light about it all. Study well but not too rigidly. And remember keep reaching for better feeling thoughts about how you will do.
