Study smart not to study hard. Thats what we commonly heard about. So what is study smart then? Many thought it is a short cut. However it is never about short cut but it is on our study technique or strategy. Tony Buzan, he who is passionate on exploring various techniques and one of which he founded mind mapping as one of the most effective technique in absorbing information. Using our gifts of senses accordingly like using colours when we write and tones when we speak or recite to increase the effectiveness in conversing and memorising.

In the study of Neuro Linguistic Programming, we also understand that different people are wired up differently. Not all techniques and strategies suite every individual. Each of us need to first identify ourselves. Different people have different favoured representational system. Its pleasurable and indeed more acceptive when we learn, interpret and absorb information according to the way we prefer. Some of us are VISUAL, KINESTATIC or AUDITORY.

If you are visual and you want to set a goal and to continously keep yourselves motivated, VISION BOARD might work for you! If you are kinestetic you find pleasurable and a strong instinct that your goals are achievable and attainable when you carve your goals on a piece of wood!If you are an auditory you will enjoy listening to motivational songs!! (like me ;P)

I have some upbeat cds in my car to charge me up when i am driving especially for my appointments or events. But i have yet to get a proper collections of motivational songs which i believe would be more effective in getting my physiology and phsychology into extremely peak state.
For those who have read, The Secrets, i encourage you to compliment these technique whenever you practice your daily/weekly visualisation excercise.

Here are some of those songs that will drive you crazy to go beyond your limits!

What ever it is, most importantly you are truly happy for doing what you choose to do. That means you are putting yourselves into your peak emotional state as well where you will definitely be at your best and indeed that is SMART!!
