How do we self motivate?  Great question for a young boy like Hiro.  I am known to be the lazy one in class, doing things at the last minute.  Self motivating is probably the hardest task ever known to man-kind.  Imagine this, your math teacher gives you homework.   You go home and look at it.  It is something that you have never learned before, meaning you have to ask for help or look up how to do it.  To self motivate yourself to learn something that hasn’t been taught to you is going to be extremely hard.  Obviously, if I was put in that situation, I would not do the work.  If you have a friend to motivate you, it ruins the self motivation part but, having that extra bit of motivation comes a long way.  In games, it is much easier to self motivate because in games, you gain things as you progress.  For example, in Maplestory there is a level system.  Say you are a level 1 character.  You are weak, and useless.  But if you decide to motivate yourself to becoming a higher level, you become stronger and you are not useless!  There was a young lad that I messaged on Facebook asking for Literature help.  I asked, how am I supposed to get this work done, when I don’t feel like it!  Leon, the young lad said, If you do your work now, you can play games later and achieve the game goals you want later and not worry about any of the homework!  So I realised that when I have homework to do that I am worried about, I should do it as soon as I can so I do not have to worry about the work later in the day.  That is how I learned how to get self motivated.  I hope this way of self motivation works.

 

How do I learn?  The ways people learn can vary.  Such studying hardcore for many hours straight to become the smartest person ever, or just taking it chill and doing work slowly, or last minute workers.  I am the last minute worker.  I do most of the work last minute.  I know it is not great and I do not learn much but I guess that how the brain of Hiro works.  I think that the chill learning is the best because it does not stress your brain.  Learning can be a difficult task for some people.  Learning requires focus and time.  Something a lot of people may not have.  The way I found out how to learn is, just ask your friends for help.  For example, when I am doing my math work, I ask a friend how I can solve the problem.  Once I learn that, I solve the problems until I get stuck again.  That usually than a teacher teaching to the whole class at once.  It is much easier to understand if it is a friend and you can be more open and social to them.  Learning may be a difficult task but it is not hard to move around it and find out how to learn slowly.  Mr Pangier’s way of learning in my opinion is good but not the greatest.  Learning on the computer means you can get distracted very easily.  For me, that is a problem.  I always get distracted with things around me. Even the smallest things.  This is why I have a hard time reading and concentrating on one topic.  This is what I need to work on.  The way I learn, is the easiest in my opinion.  But doing work last minute, is a problem that needs to get fixed.
