First, cultivate interest in learning.
Confucius said, "Knowing is not as good as being kind, and being kind is not as good as being happy." If you are passionate about a certain field, you may exert all your potential in this field, and even forget to eat and sleep for it. At this time, we are not studying for success, but for "enjoyment".
How to find your own interests? First of all, we should evaluate objectively and find our own interests. The best way to find points of interest is to broaden your horizons and touch many fields. You can only try if you touch it, and you can only find what you like if you try it.
College students should better grasp their school time, make full use of school resources, and get in touch with more fields, more jobs and more experts and scholars by using library resources, auditing courses, searching online, attending lectures, working, participating in community activities, communicating with friends, using e-mail and electronic forums. Pay attention to cultivating your learning ability during your college study. As long as you have this ability, you can also gain enough knowledge and experience in the process of learning by doing.
Interest is the key, but ambition is more important. Students don't have to take an interest as their ultimate goal, and they don't have to completely cut off the development path of any interest. Under the guidance of ambition, different interests can develop in parallel and then make the best choice when necessary. Ambition is like a compass, and interest is like a sail. The two complement each other and are indispensable. They can take you to an ideal harbor.
Second, exercise self-study ability.
What college students learn in school will be useful in five or many years? This question is difficult to answer, because the development of science and technology is changing with each passing day. However, if students learn to think and master the learning methods, they will be able to cope with whatever new knowledge, technology and tools appear five years later.
If students want to have the ability of lifelong learning, they must cultivate the ability of self-study, that is, the ability to draw inferences from others or learn from others. Universities are only guides, and students must learn to study, explore and practice independently. Don't follow the trend when studying, take the initiative to walk in front of the teacher, ponder the related problems in the textbook before the teacher lectures, and then make up for your lack of understanding and understanding by comparing with the teacher's explanations in class.
College students should ask themselves about knowledge and be good at asking questions. Ask more "why" for every knowledge point. If we really understand the ins and outs of theories or methods, we can learn other knowledge, solve other problems and even reach the realm of self-study.
Many problems have different ideas or angles. In learning, we should dare to innovate and be good at thinking from a new angle, so that the potential thinking ability, creativity and learning ability can be really stimulated.
Third, learning needs to be proactive.
As college students, they must be their own future masters and actively manage their studies and future careers. The reason is simple: because no one cares more about their work and life than you do. It is your responsibility to "make college life valuable to yourself". An active student should plan his future from the moment he enters the university.
The first step to be proactive is to have a positive attitude; The second step is to be responsible for everything, face life bravely, and don't put uncertain or difficult things on hold; The third step is to make full preparations and create opportunities. When the opportunity comes, you can seize it; The fourth step is to actively plan the university for four years.
Fourth, learn to manage time.
College students should also learn to arrange their own time and manage their own affairs. Universities have more free time, so they need to arrange, plan and manage their own time.
College students must change passive learning into active learning, make themselves the masters of the future, and actively manage their studies and future careers.
