How to Get Better Grades

Without Studying More or Working Harder

(It’s only 24 minutes long. Watch on 1.5x, and it’s just about 16 minutes. It’s so worth it.

Here’s What You’ll Learn:

Secret #1

Why studying more is NOT the secret to better grades – and how it’s actually part of the problem

Because doing more of the wrong stuff never works.

Secret #2

The REAL way to become an academic weapon (Hint: motivation is not required)

Low motivation is the symptom. We need to treat the cause.

Secret #3

The one thing that leads to academic (and career) success — and no, it’s not taught in schools

If failure-proofing your future were a thing, this would be it.
