Be Cool, Calm, and Collected When Preparing for the GMAT Focus Edition
One of the most valuable skills that a person can master is managing his or her emotions. Stress and anxiety are not what you want to feel while preparing for the GMAT Focus Edition, because it’s very difficult to learn and to retain information when you’re feeling stressed or negative.
Enjoy your learning! Approach it with positivity. Don’t get upset if you’re not mastering the GMAT Focus material as quickly as you’d like. Getting upset is only going to further reduce the rate at which you learn and the amount of material you retain. Be as Zen as possible and remember that making mistakes is an inevitable part of learning.
Each mistake that you make is one small opportunity to improve your knowledge and skills. For instance, when you make a mistake, be sure to determine why. Was it a timing issue? A concept issue? A careless error? Whatever the reason, learn from your mistakes so that you do not repeat them in answering future questions.
Put yourself in a positive state of mind while preparing for the GMAT Focus Edition and use whatever relaxation techniques you can to keep yourself there.
