Exam Time : Wandering to YouTube for Inspiration

YouTube : Inspiring me, Always

Exam time, feeling tensed : Let's wander into the YouTube space for some inspiration to ace the rat race examination of IP university.
Typing inspiring Ted talks  on YouTube search ,results in some pretty awesome search results I must say.

TED TALKS 


I started by watching the first video Shawn Achor: The happy secret to better work  and it was from this video , I am writing this post right now. It emphasized on how happiness and positive thinking enhances learning and creativity. Being happy is not a final destination but a journey to success you all must enjoy.
As my search on YouTube for motivation was about exam preparation, I concluded that I should start studying my subjects with a positive outlook and learning them with a happy state of mind. This would [I hope] enhance my learning and help me perform better in my examination.


The other video I watched was Derek Sivers: Keep your goals to yourself and suddenly I could relate to every word of the speaker. Frankly speaking I tell each and every goal I have in mind to my friends and 90% of those goals are never completed, and I always wondered why . 

What I learned was when sharing your goals amongst your friends , you imagine yourself completing that goal and all the praises that comes from it. This actually makes the task look easy, which sadly is not so.There is also a less of a motivation factor left behind as you have already imagined that success.
So I next time I am about to speak about my goals, I'll make sure I don't.
