Smart and savvy you may be. Still your success in college won't be determined by your IQ but by what you do or don't do. This book will provide you with a ton of ideas on how to outsmart your procrastination - especially when the kid part of you wants to do nothing but play games, sleep, stay on your phone or hang with friends.
I'm a psychologist. If I could listen to you and hear exactly what your issues are, you'd be kicking butt right now! But I can't. So I wrote this book to help you be the best you can be. I won't lecture you, berate you, denigrate you nor give you any preachy advice. I'm not going to tell you what you should do but I am going to tell you what you could do. What you could do to have a fantastic and successful college experience!
My advice will be based on your personality style. Surely you know that people differ from one another in manner and mode. The greatest advice for one person may be absolutely wrong for another. But how am I going to know who you are so I can offer you the best ideas? Well, here's the fun part. You get to take a quiz – well, actually six quizzes - rank order them, then discover your highest ranking personality style. You'll Pass GO, collect $200 (only kidding) and focus on the chapter dedicated to your style.
Rest assured, I do not desire to turn you into a no-fun study nerd. College years are definitely the time to have fun and sow your wild oats. I also have no wish to turn you into an "ideal" personality style – even if I knew what that was. To do so would be counterproductive and rather insulting. Yes, it might be helpful if you were better organized like your sibling or less worried like your friend but you've got strengths they don't have. No need for a personality makeover. You already have many admirable traits.
My goal is simple. I want to help you develop the upgraded, enhanced version of YOU. I hope you want that too. I hope you're intrigued about acquiring valuable skills that will last you a lifetime. If you are, this is where the magic will happen. And I promise you, this book will not be TLTR (too long to read). Good ideas come in small packages.
