Motivation

[LoveToStack]

The time I enjoy most is when I'm not at school and I can do what I want. However the only way I'll be able to put my feet up and spend my days doing what I want is by putting in the work now so that I can reap the benefits later. Simple as that for me anyway.

Utilitarian ethics (and that of John Stuart Mill) state that the greatest reward is mental not physical. Would you prefer to go out one night for a party, not revise for the exam, and get an E in your exam? No. The best reward and motivation is knowing you'll be closer to a higher grade at the end, and can go on to utilise that grade. It's the mental rewards that bring about most happiness and pleasure. At least that's what motivated me.

Think about what you have coming ahead of you in the near future! (Positive thoughts) Mentally being positive always helps the person

So your saying your AS Levels are not important?
The Australia and UK Schooling Systems are different.
Year 12 here could be Year 9 there.

AS levels are quite an easy ride Paul, if you put your work in and get good grades, next year will be that little bit easier.

AS exams are just a bit easier than A2, but still worth the same amount towards your A level (50%), so if you get a good grade its a very good foundation for next year

I always have Mohammed Ali's Quote in my head "I hated every minute of training, but I said, "Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion."

You're on EMA aren't you? That motivates me because my college is really strict on it. You're allowed 3 periods off per year whilst still getting EMA (I've used all 3 already)
