I don't do any work on a Sunday except perhaps a bit of planning. For me, there is a good reason why sunday is called the Sabbath. My ritual is getting up late, reading the Sunday papers, rest, reconnecting with my family and friends..... and going to church on Sunday evening. I work hard enough from Monday to Saturday as it is....nope...this suggestion is a fail for me... Cal,

It's been hard since I'm a bad procrastinator but there have been some positive changes and I'm happy about that. I really enjoyed this post because it shows that everyone regardless of age should learn how to study properly. I hope that in the future you could feature how a student taking a technical course without maths employ the straight-A method. Currently I am making quick-draw questions to memorize facts and using the storytelling method to describe how the body functions. It would be nice if I could read about how a real-life example studies for a similar type of course. Hey Cal,
