Hello B, we are happy to read from you. We hear you say that you have a natural talent that you have displayed since you were young in persuasion/communication through the arts.
Many of your advisers did not value this talent and felt you should concentrate on other 'academic' areas because you 'cant have it all'. At the moment you seek our help to become an excellent student and an excellent all round person...to answer you B we will need to share two facts that have will empower and many other people as well.
a) All successful people have tapped into their natural, in born talent that others noticed in them when they were young...this does not mean that you cannot deviate, but that to succeed and leave a legacy you must rediscover who the true B is and love her for who she is not what other people want her to be.
b) Successful people are NOT all round...they have mastered their area of strength to a very high level and everyone knows them for their strength. the areas they have chosen to ignore, they get other people to do it and do it well.
As a student in 2nd year bachelors degree, you will need to complete your degree with the best performance possible (since good performance ALWAYS opens doors), but starting today, reconnect with the world of persuasive communication and arts, your future lies there. The economics and finance will help you succeed but they will not be the core of your success.
There are numerous studying skills programs in the market, we also have one that guarantees 70% retention and transmission on to the examination paper...feel free to use any that works best for you. All the best B, be in touch
