Before actually reading the first three chapters of College Sucess Simplified, I thought it was a $33 dollar waste of my time, but then I actually what topics it covered and how those things really impact my daily college career. Chapter one hit home two subjects that really pertain to me with stress managment skills and creating a positive moral. Management gave me some great tecniques for relaxing after a stressful day of classes and study especially with the "Progressive muscle relaxation" tecnique. I always seem to get down on myself over the little things this is why the positive attidude section really helped me learn vaulable tips in self moral. Chapter two taught classroom skills in paticular the building a relationship with your instructor helps me to conquer the intimidation of college professors. Self confidence is a huge issue of mine, chapter three tells vaulable tips for overcomming my self esteem issues. I looked forward to reading more in depth into this book and to learn more about study skills and good habit creating.
Glad the money is well spent. Might be worth a lot if it helps you down the road. Luke, it's nice that you gained some ideas to find more success in your first week of college. Might take a look at others' blog posts as well through http://richrice.com/1100. You'll gain some other ideas there as well. Keep working hard!
