1
I walked into university on my first day
2
and I made a large friendship group within my first three hours of being there.
3
And I had the time of my life for the next three years.
4
And when it came to graduating, I left university with a first class degree, a job, a side hustle, money saved up and a good amount of experience on my resume.
5
This is how you conquer university.
6
Now because this video is built like a very comprehensive overall guide to every aspect of university, feel free to skip to whatever chapter is relevant for you.
7
If you're really only here for the study tips, then I have an entirely different video on my channel
8
that is committed just to teaching you how to score a first class mark in your university essays.
9
And that is linked in the description.
10
Don't forget to check out my Instagram, my TikTok and my podcast for more advice whenever you need it.
11
It's all linked in the description.
12
chapter number one university mindset and confidence i'm starting out with this because
13
if you don't master your mindset before you go to uni
14
your entire experience is going to be gone just like
15
that absolute trash
16
so step number one before you even go to university is to decide who you're going to be
17
and to channel that alter ego energy for example all throughout my life i was extremely shy
18
and socially awkward and i couldn't make friends
19
when i went to university I decided I wanted to be an entirely different version of myself.
20
I wanted to be confident, extroverted, the life of the party.
21
And so I created an alter ego.
22
How do you actually do this?
23
You're going to get really clear on your head about who you want to be.
24
And then you're going to pretend to have those characteristics until you can naturally embody them on a day-to-day basis.
25
People always ask, how can I be confident?
26
How can I go up and talk to people and make friends?
27
You can't until you try.
28
And I don't care how uncomfortable it feels.
29
And even if you're screaming on the inside from awkwardness, you're going to force yourself to do it because once you keep exposing yourself to that practice, you'll become numb to it.
30
This links into step number two.
31
You need to realize that things aren't gonna come to you in university how they might have in school.
32
People can get real unlucky real fast when they start university.
33
And this is why it's so important to take your life
34
and your future into your own hands and go out and make the first move in every single area.
35
Talking to your teachers, studying, taking control of your timetable and then making friends and going to events.
36
Confidence is everything.
37
And I don't care who you were in school or who you even were yesterday.
38
No one knows you here, so you can be whoever you want to be.
39
The best way to implement this step is to do what I did and just take initiative to plan every single event.
40
On my very first day of university, I knocked on everyone's flat door in my building.
41
I invited them over to my flat and said that I was hosting a party.
42
I was so scared and it was so awkward for the first 20 minutes, but they became my friendship group for the rest of the year.
43
You know why?
44
Because everybody else is shy and uncomfortable and insecure and worrying about how they come across.
45
So if you take it in your hands to get a bunch of people in the same room
46
so they can socialize with each other they might not say thank you
47
but trust me they're gonna be
48
so grateful essentially be the leader of your friendship group of organizing parties of saying this is the day
49
that we're gonna go to the club tip number three your discipline is everything
50
and your motivation is seriously gonna be lacking in university listen
51
the transition from high school to university is shocking okay everything
52
gets easier yeah that's right easier you might not think so
53
but all of a sudden you have all of this freedom
54
you have all of this spare time you don't have to turn up to class
55
if you don't want to your teachers aren't going to be on your case you're
56
so far away from your parents you can slack off all you want as soon as you get to university
57
and all of this excitement is in front of you a lot of people tend to forget
58
that they're actually here to get their higher education
59
and further their future career how do you avoid this set a routine
60
and try your hardest to stick to it day by day
61
now don't go too hard on yourself in your first few
62
months of uni you're adjusting you're trying to meet people you're trying to create a new life for yourself
63
but i would say especially for your last two years of uni make sure you have
64
that routine make sure you're factoring in your exercise make sure
65
you know okay on these days i'm going to study in the library this is
66
when i'm going to go to class these are the days
67
i'm going to work my part-time job this is my spare time windows where i can start looking into extracurriculars
68
or setting up a side hustle
69
so i can further my career in my last six months of university
70
when all of my final exams were coming up
71
and i was busier than ever i wasn't motivated i was tired af
72
but do you know where my discipline got me by forcing myself to be disciplined
73
and getting up every morning i managed to go to the gym at 5am every morning
74
and then i would start getting ready to go to work
75
and then at 8am i would start my part-time job i'd
76
finish my part-time job at 2pm i'd come home i'd do
77
content creation to grow my social media for two hours right
78
after those two hours i would walk to campus go to the library work there till seven, come home, have dinner, read a book, do something to recharge, go to sleep,
79
wake up and do it all over again.
80
Was it hard?
81
Yes.
82
Did I want to do it?
83
Absolutely no. But am I so damn grateful every day
84
that I force myself to just sit with some discomfort for a little while?
85
Yes.
86
And this is the problem.
87
Everyone expects everything to be easy and they're like, oh, this is hard, but now I feel stressed and I don't have enough time.
88
I'm sorry, but that is what university is like.
89
It is not a walk in the park when you're trying to be an overachiever.
90
tip four you will make a mistake and you will surprise yourself
91
and do something out of character and that is completely okay
92
and normal and a part of your university experience
93
when i started university my priorities were
94
so wrong i did some real out of character things
95
and i still look back to this day
96
and i'm honestly shocked at how wild i was
97
but you know what that's okay like you've got to be gentle with yourself this is a very transformative experience
98
and it's like nothing
99
that you would have experienced ever before this part of your
100
academic career is really built in a way where you can have a lot of fun at the same time
101
and you've got to take advantage of that.
102
Just always remember that you're trying your best
103
and no one expects you to know the answer to everything all of the time
104
and make the correct decision all of the time.
105
You are growing into your adult self
106
and mistakes are the best way to learn and grow into the next version of yourself.
107
Tip number five, socialize with confidence.
108
I used to be so nervous at approaching people
109
and like saying hi to whoever I was sitting in lectures
110
because you think everyone's going to be super social
111
but a lot of the time they're not
112
and I would kind of hesitate because I'd fear what they would think of me
113
but the thing is nobody knows you and
114
while you are projecting all of your own insecurities
115
and self-doubts on them thinking are they going to think I'm so desperate
116
or weird they know nothing about you in fact they could
117
be sitting there in silence absolutely intimidated by you they could be sitting there hoping
118
that you'll say hi you don't know that so it's in your best interest to just make the move regardless.
119
Tip number six, chasing male validation.
120
Oh, a very, very big pit I fell into in my first year of university.
121
And it's because I hadn't found myself yet.
122
I was recovering from a breakup and refusing to actually heal from it
123
and instead just be in denial and focus on temporary pleasures like shamelessly flirting, going on a bunch of first dates and being in loads of talking stages with guys.
124
Compared to my last year of university, where by that point I'd started solo dating, I had done my self-lift journey, I had worked on my confidence, I had realized that I was an amazing person,
125
that I was a catch to be with and
126
that I had to set super high standards and that boys don't bring a lot to the table.
127
So until I find a man who's gonna be completely and utterly obsessed with me, ready to offer me a healthy relationship and give me the most because I already give myself everything,
128
I am okay to be single, focus on my studies, focus on making money and focus on my career.
129
If you can master that mindset in your first year of university, you are golden.
130
And the last tip for this chapter is to focus on your mental health.
131
Like I said at the beginning, if you don't master your mindset for university, everything is gonna crumble.
132
It's essentially your foundation to your everyday experience.
133
The number one most beneficial resource to help you efficiently improve your mental health is to go to therapy.
134
But as a university student, where are you gonna get the money to do that, right?
135
It's expensive.
136
Well, this is where BetterHelp, who was the paid partner of this video, comes in.
137
I wish I knew this platform existed when I was in university because I remember going through such a dark time, struggling with friendship problems
138
and my mental health to the point where I was literally Googling some sort of therapy resource
139
that my university was offering and then not being able to find anything.
140
BetterHelp's mission is to make therapy as accessible as possible.
141
BetterHelp is a platform that will make finding a therapist much easier because it's online, it's remote, and all you have to do is fill out a form, writing out what your concerns are, what your needs are,
142
and then BetterHelp can match you to a credential therapist in
143
as little as a few days who is suited to your needs.
144
So regardless if you have a clinical mental health issue like depression or anxiety, or you're just a human who's struggling to cope on a day-to-day basis,
145
therapy can give you the right tools to approach life in a very different way.
146
It's super easy to get signed up and matched with a therapist.
147
There's a link below in my description.
148
It's betterhelp.com slash Tancor.
149
And not only does that link help support this channel, but it gets you 10% off your first month of BetterHelp.
150
Chapter number two, friends, boys, and so much drama.
151
Listen, despite the tea I am about to spill in this chapter, you can find a few like-minded individuals who are going to be your long-lasting friends.
152
You just have to know where to look.
153
You know, if you want to be an overachiever and get the most out of university, then you want to find friends who care about their future, who look after their diet, who want to go out and exercise, who want to do high vibrational activities.
154
They go out and they party and they have fun, but they know their worth and they don't get caught up in chasing attention.
155
In order to attract these types of high value friends, you have to be them
156
and in order to be them you need to fall in
157
energetic alignment with who you want to attract this comes with working on yourself your standards
158
and knowing who is actually worth your time and then after
159
that always make the first move one day i was in
160
a lecture i turned around to say hi to this guy next to me
161
and we stayed friends for the next three years he was
162
a business owner all throughout uni super successful extremely nice
163
and we would go out and we would talk about our goals
164
and our future and i couldn't do that with anybody else at uni
165
and all it took was me saying hi to a stranger in class, not knowing where it would lead to.
166
Okay, so now let's talk about friendships.
167
I made a lot of friends in my very first week of uni because I knew how to be likable.
168
And here's my formula.
169
One, be nice to everyone.
170
Don't spread gossip, don't engage in drama, don't try to have any problems surrounding you, okay?
171
Because you will get a reputation very fast.
172
Two, be easygoing in the beginning.
173
Make sure you're turning up to the social events and the parties.
174
Three, plan social events yourself.
175
I would be the person that's like, everyone can have pre-drinks at my apartment, then we're gonna go to this club, this time, whatever
176
and everyone shows up because they're too lazy to do it themselves
177
and they also want to socialize
178
and then lastly always be a shoulder to lean on anytime anyone was struggling i would always see them one-on-one
179
and then we would talk about it or i'd give them advice
180
but also i was very big on deep conversation
181
so i knew a lot about each person in my friendship group like one-on-one
182
then all of us knew about each other collectively and that's
183
because i knew what to talk about i think i'm just naturally lucky here
184
because i really hate small talk even in a big group setting I'd be like, oh, who's most likely to do this or that
185
or whatever to fully understand who people were and what their likes and dislikes were, what their family life was like.
186
And this wasn't because of my own benefit or because I was nosy.
187
It was so I could fully understand every single person in my friendship group.
188
At the end of the day, people love to talk about themselves.
189
The more questions you ask, the more they'll probably like you.
190
And then when it comes to boys, hokkuk culture is literally so dumb.
191
As a woman, what are you getting from a man that you can't get from a vibrator.
192
Seriously.
193
Seriously though, hookup culture brings you zero benefit.
194
You're not in your feminine energy when you engage in it.
195
You're giving away all of your power.
196
You're getting emotionally attached to this man
197
and you're literally allowing full access to yourself to someone who hasn't put in the time and effort to earn you.
198
Just because it's normalized in university and everyone you know is doing it doesn't mean that you should do it.
199
Half the time men can't even do the deed properly and the other half of the time they're using you for it.
200
They'll ghost you the next day or they're doing it with four other girls at the same time as you.
201
Huck up culture was designed to only benefit men.
202
Think about all of the other useful things you could be doing in your free time to further yourself, your friends, your experiences, your memories, then doing this.
203
At the end of the day, it's up to you.
204
That's just my opinion.
205
Okay, now onto drama.
206
If you thought it was finished in high school, you're very wrong.
207
Now, it's super difficult to avoid drama in university
208
because you have to prioritize talking to as many people as you can to find the right friendship group for you.
209
You're not gonna find it the first time around.
210
So the easiest way to get around this problem is don't trust everyone right away.
211
Make sure you're being social, you're talking to everyone, you're being nice, no matter what is going on.
212
But remember, everyone gossips, so don't get caught up in people's first impressions.
213
As long as you make it a habit to not tell anyone things you don't mind the entire campus knowing, you'll be fine.
214
Now, that's one way to go about the friendship and drama problem, especially when you first started uni, you don't know anyone, you do kind of need to just throw yourself into the social aspect
215
but let's say your second year third year like i was
216
a different way to approach this problem is to only surround
217
yourself by high value friends my experience in my first year versus my last year of uni were very different
218
because in my last year i didn't mind being alone i had extremely high friendship standards
219
and i set boundaries with people
220
if someone was gossiping about somebody else in front of me
221
i don't care not speaking to you again i don't need
222
that energy in my life if your values don't match mine
223
and you're out here prioritizing drugs and chasing boys and slacking off on all of your uni work, I don't want to be associated with you.
224
And as a result, I found a nice tight-knit group of people
225
that I actually got along with and loved to talk to, but also my academic results flourished.
226
The only downside to that second way of dealing with things is you're not going to have the huge friendship group.
227
And that leads me onto my next point.
228
Don't be fooled by the big friendship groups you're seeing everyone else have.
229
They are often the messiest.
230
And I know this because I was in a few big friendship groups
231
and oh my god everyone talks about each other no one
232
really likes each other from the outside point of view it looks like they all love each other
233
and they're a big happy family
234
and they get along no they don't no they don't
235
and i also know this
236
because i had friends in other universities who were also in big friendship groups
237
and they would come to me
238
and tell me the drama they were experiencing at universities miles
239
away from mine there is nothing to be envious of trust me okay i knew people who had one
240
or two friends
241
and had the best healthiest relationship with them they went through university they would travel together
242
and all of that
243
and they weren't concerned about popularity honestly i think that's a
244
great way to go about things now let me spill the
245
tea on the dating situation at uni now there are some people
246
that end up getting into relationships and it's all cute and whatever
247
but 90 of people it is just one big love island
248
everyone's after each other everyone's chasing validation everyone loves the one night stands
249
and it's situationship central okay no one's out here trying to
250
commit for the most part you are barely an adult yet
251
you have the rest of your life to go out and date and get into a relationship.
252
Take it from me.
253
I was in three relationships during the course of uni.
254
It was a complete waste of my time.
255
Boys in uni are not that different from boys in high school.
256
Okay.
257
And I was a first year dating a third year.
258
Okay.
259
He was older than me and he still didn't have his ish together.
260
None of these guys do.
261
And this is why it's best to wait until you're out
262
in the real working world where guys have finally grown up
263
and matured a bit and they actually can offer you something
264
and if you are meant to have
265
that experience it will come to you please don't go out
266
looking for it chapter three setting up your lifestyle let's talk about budgeting alcohol partying
267
and boredom step number one this is how you survive clubbing
268
listen things can go from zero to 100 real quick not only me
269
but everyone else i know has at least five traumatic experiences
270
from a night out in a club in university being responsible in these these situations will get you
271
so much further
272
and you can still have a fun time as soon as you learn your alcoholic limit never go above
273
that don't try and seem cool don't try
274
and be the life of the party
275
and be like oh yeah well this person bought me a round of shots
276
so i'm gonna drink it don't drink it
277
but i would also say having a few good guys in your friendship group is super helpful i know
278
so many times where guys were coming up to me to try
279
and flirt with me in the club
280
and my guy friends would literally protect me it was a lifesaver
281
and then linking back to being responsible
282
if you are just a little bit tipsy
283
and you still have your wits about you you get to
284
control how your night goes i remember being in my very
285
first year of uni i'd be in a big friendship group
286
right dancing in a circle i was jamming out having a great time
287
and i could see everything from everywhere a couple of times i'd be dancing
288
and a guy would make eye contact with me
289
and then he would take a step towards me
290
and i'd be dancing i'd be like i wouldn't even say anything i would just shake my finger at him
291
and these guys would be so embarrassed they would just do a u-turn
292
and leave another step to surviving clubbing is don't eat fast food after every night out this is also
293
so normalized and it hits you so fast this leads me up to step two
294
if you are not a drinker you'll be absolutely fine i
295
know a lot of people who went to university struggling thinking oh my god how am i gonna make friends
296
if i don't drink
297
and that's such a big part of the uni culture it
298
is i had three people in my big friendship group who didn't drink
299
and didn't drink all throughout university they were still
300
so integrated in our friendship group they went to every single
301
night we went on they had the best time they made
302
friends with other people it will not hold you back people liking you is based more on your personality
303
and the energy you can bring to a night out as opposed to how much alcohol you can drink.
304
The next step is your sleep schedule.
305
Unfortunately university is not the time for you to be having the best sleep schedule.
306
You can try, you can try
307
but it took me a very long time to do it
308
because everything just happens at night and you don't want to miss out on it
309
so you can get the most out of your experience you know.
310
I would be in my bedroom studying at 10 p.m.
311
I'd get a call from my friend, be ready in 30 minutes now we're going to the club.
312
Then you get back home at like 4 or 5 a.m
313
and then you're gonna wake up late and it's fine
314
but just as long as you're getting eight hours every night
315
and not oversleeping and then managing your time effectively when you are awake with, okay, I went on a night out last night, let me hit the library first thing in the morning
316
and obviously don't over drink so then you can actually use the next day effectively.
317
The next step to up-leveling your lifestyle in university is your self-care routine.
318
Don't lack on this, okay?
319
Because doing exercise at least like three times a week or just making sure you walk everywhere, it's as simple as that, it's gonna help you release all of these happy chemicals in your body.
320
It is so easy to feel lonely and sad and fall into a rut when you're in university, but then you have to take a step back and hold yourself accountable and think,
321
okay, when was the last time I got up and I moved my body for a prolonged period?
322
When was the last time I ate food that wasn't processed?
323
If you don't check yourself by doing something healthy in the day, you're going to go downhill super fast.
324
A lot of people say that their main struggle in university is that they're bored, they have nothing to do, they're alone all of the time.
325
And I'm trying to say, you should take advantage of this.
326
I had the same experience, especially in my third year of university, where I was really picky about who my friends were going to be.
327
I spent a lot of time alone, and when I wasn't studying, I made the most of it.
328
I'm like, I'm living in a different city.
329
Let me go out and explore.
330
Let me take myself on a solo day.
331
I used to go to the movie on my own all the time, and I would have a blast.
332
If you are living out alone, you have everything at your fingertips, okay?
333
You have to remember when you wanted what you currently have, okay?
334
Remember when you were living in your boring hometown with your parents, and you barely had any freedom, and now you're complaining you don't have anyone to do anything with, go out and experience the world yourself.
335
Even if you're alone in your bedroom with just you and your laptop, that was me in 2020 in my first year of university.
336
I started this YouTube channel I'm on right now and that was my full-time job after university.
337
And then the last step for this chapter, let's talk about budgeting.
338
So my first step for this is to have a grocery list paired with a meal plan.
339
Doing a food shop nowadays is very expensive and you don't want to be wasting anything.
340
You want to be super efficient
341
so i would have in my notes app what are my
342
lunches what are my dinners i'd keep it super simple
343
and i'd even keep it repetitive
344
and then i would go to my local grocery store
345
and i would just buy the things that i was going to eat
346
and by the end of the week i didn't even have
347
any excess i literally never did any ubi eats at university
348
that eats up all of your money unnecessarily okay
349
because of my meal plan i never had to order up
350
unfortunately i never went shopping okay i rarely bought the new nice makeup
351
or buying myself new clothes and shopping online because it was a luxury I couldn't afford back then.
352
I never got my nails done.
353
I painted them every single week.
354
The thing with uni and budgeting is you got to cut corners in every place.
355
And the way to do this is to figure out what your non-negotiables were.
356
I knew every week what I had to spend my money on in order to have a good time.
357
That was doing a food shop so that I could survive. And two, spending money on buying tickets to the club because
358
that was the main social event is what I enjoyed to do and it's where all of my friends were heading.
359
That meant that I could get out of the house and have a fun time.
360
It wasn't too expensive.
361
I got to socialize with everyone and I was having a typical uni experience.
362
Easy peasy.
363
I didn't really spend money on anything else.
364
People would buy 50 pound bottles of alcohol.
365
I would go and buy the cheapest 15 bottle that I could find.
366
It had the same effect.
367
You got to get it in your head.
368
You're a uni student.
369
Okay.
370
You can't live your bougie life just yet.
371
And that's okay because one day you will graduate
372
and you will make it and you'll experience all of the luxuries life has to offer.
373
Okay but there is nothing luxurious about being in uni
374
and trying to impress others and flashing money you don't have
375
and then ending up in a situation where you're
376
so broke you have to borrow money from people you can't even travel home to your parents and you're barely even eating.
377
And chapter four pro study tips to get a first class
378
and everything else you can do to get ahead in university when it comes to career and postgraduate and getting experience.
379
Step number one the overachievers organization guide because we don't settle for less around here.
380
So every single module
381
that you are going to study you're going to look it up on your university website
382
and you're going to read up on how the work is split up and then how the work is examined.
383
This is so that you can understand every single module inside
384
and out so you know how to prep and study for it. For example
385
if you found out oh this module is marked by exams
386
then you need to start marking days in your calendar for
387
the next few months of oh once a week I need to reread my notes I've made
388
so far on that module so
389
that slowly over time you are constantly revisiting the information you've learned
390
so when it comes to the exam you already understand
391
and have kind of memorized everything whereas for another module you're
392
like oh I have zero exams for this only an essay
393
that means I can miss a few lectures here and there
394
and I can work smarter instead of harder I can get
395
away with doing less by just focusing on building my essay structure by studying the mark schemes instead
396
and all of the past papers and examiner reports
397
so I know how to write a first class essay
398
and then because you're working smarter
399
and not harder in your spare time you're going to volunteer you're going to get a job
400
or a side hustle or join a society so
401
that you can pad out your resume with as much experience as possible to set yourself up for an easygoing postgraduate life.
402
Basically everything I've just said is the process whereby at the start of the year you understand your degree fully
403
so that you understand how to put in the bare minimum effort and get the maximum results out of it.
404
I saw too many people in my university experience burn themselves out
405
so much they never came with us on nights out they
406
were in the library every single day studying going to sleep waking up studying again they had no fun in university.
407
I was partying four times a week every single week in
408
my first year of university I was slacking off in my second year and I still graduated with a first class degree.
409
Everyone wants to know how you master the balance between social and academic in university.
410
And truly it's from the prep you put in to understand what is the most efficient way to work
411
so that I can actually free up this time
412
that I would have wasted otherwise trying to work too hard when I could have gotten the same results either way.
413
Step number two, you are who you surround yourself with.
414
My biggest tip, like this saved me and changed my uni results so much, was always working in a cafe or in the library.
415
I could not work in my uni bedroom.
416
I would procrastinate.
417
I'd always find other things to do and I simply couldn't focus.
418
When you're at a place, especially like your campus library, and you're seeing all of these other students with their head in their laptop, just working, working, working.
419
It puts so much pressure on you.
420
I remember sitting there and I was starting to slack off in the library
421
and all it took was just lifting my head and I'd be like, oh, okay.
422
And especially if you're friends with a bunch of party animals, that behavior isn't normalized to you.
423
And then when you're sat in your bedroom working alone, you think you're doing good when really there are people in the library going 10 times harder than you.
424
Make sure you put yourself in the right environment so
425
that you can get inspired
426
and more motivated step number three mastering time management My favorite
427
tool for this is my apple calendar I just went on my laptop
428
and I use the calendar app that's already on there You basically color coordinate everything
429
so all of my lectures would be one color All of
430
my extra critical activities would be one my side hustle my job, etc So then just by looking at it I could see where I was putting the most time
431
and what could use some more time being put into it If you don't use any Apple devices, then Google Calendar also does the exact same thing.
432
So it was my ritual every single Sunday to look at the week ahead and plan everything in advance.
433
I'd also make sure that pretty much every hour was accounted for, even lunch breaks, dinner breaks, just so I knew that I was using my time efficiently.
434
Even my social activities, I'd have like, okay, this weekend is blocked out because I'm seeing a friend for dinner.
435
The next day I need to, you know, put this work task in there or I need to change my shifts at work, etc. I also just want to say don't stress yourself out
436
trying to think how am I going to make this possible
437
because everything is possible okay
438
if I could go to the gym at 5am work a
439
job work on my social media go to the library to study
440
and then still have the evening free to facetime a friend
441
or go out
442
or relax you can too it's all about efficiency I only worked my part-time job three days a week
443
and my volunteering job was at home okay I was choosing things
444
that were easier
445
but were still going to get me the same results even
446
though I only worked 18 hours a week at my job
447
it was still going to look the same on my resume
448
that I learned the same skills yes I put less time into it but
449
so what my volunteering job I did at home from the
450
comfort of my own bed I was a social media manager
451
for my university library same skills were listed even though I didn't have to go into a place
452
and put in hard labor you have to plan for these things in advance on top of
453
that the job I worked linked into the field
454
that I wanted to go into
455
which was marketing okay I worked at a jewelry company don't take a random job just
456
because it's easy and you get money out of it like being the Starbucks barista on your campus, where was I gonna get you?
457
My plan at the time, because I thought I wanted to go into a marketing corporate job was, okay, I need a part-time job.
458
This is a part-time job that a future employee would like and would look good on my CV.
459
Now I need volunteering.
460
I was a social media manager.
461
It links in.
462
Then I need a side hustle.
463
Let me grow my own socials.
464
And it all links in to form a resume that has cohesion.
465
It's all about building the specific skillset that your future employer wants you to have.
466
Another great tip is literally once again, from the comfort of my own bed.
467
I would do these, they were like Google certifications.
468
So I would get qualified in certain programs.
469
I'd get qualified in digital marketing and you literally study for these exams.
470
You can do it over the course of a few days, these online free courses and then have these certificates and add it to your LinkedIn profile.
471
And instantly you're way more attractive to employees.
472
You can't just get a good result in uni
473
and maybe have a job and stop at
474
that okay you need to put as much as you can
475
in i would also recommend from early on going on linkedin looking at job descriptions in fields
476
that you're thinking of being in and looking at the skills
477
that they want to have
478
and then on linkedin you can do exams to qualify yourself in things like microsoft excel
479
or certain skills and then padding out your linkedin profile by saying i've completed these exams
480
and i have these certificates super easy you can do it every weekend from your uni bedroom.
481
And then when it comes to perfecting your essay strategy, I have an entire video on my YouTube channel committed to this.
482
So I'm not going to waste your time right now.
483
It's linked in the description and that goes into full detail.
484
And lastly, chapter number five, the homework chapter.
485
If you're new here, we have a homework chapter at the end of every video.
486
So you make sure you're actually implementing the advice that you're learning.
487
Let's go.
488
Number one, plan out your alter ego.
489
If you are lucky enough that you're watching this video early, where you have not started uni i want you to get
490
your notes up i want you to write down who is
491
your new uni self okay what does she look like what
492
does she do how does she dress what she do on
493
the weekends what is her studying routine essentially design your life
494
and then manifest that ish and then
495
when you start uni you're gonna fake it till you make it
496
and you're gonna pretend to be that person
497
and i promise you after like a week you'll forget who
498
you even were before step number two once you're at uni
499
and you've started your classes and you have your schedule you're gonna set up
500
that Google Calendar
501
or the Apple Calendar colour coordination to make sure you're planning
502
your week consistently every single week to make sure you're being efficient.
503
Step number three, you're going to go through all of your modules and you're going to understand them, which ones are going to be marked by exams, which by essays, and then prep accordingly, okay?
504
Watch my video on essay structure so you can get a first class in that
505
and then put in events in your calendar over the next few weeks for a year of on these days every week, I'm going to study that module again.
506
The next homework task is make sure that you join a society, a club, some sort of volunteering opportunity at your university ASAP.
507
It might be boring, you might not wanna do it.
508
I don't wanna do it, but it's gonna look good in your CV.
509
So you gotta bite the bullet sometimes and just go for it.
510
After this, go back to your calendar and create a routine.
511
Which days are you gonna study from the library, okay?
512
Figure out where your nearest cafes are, what time do they close, how far are they from each other?
513
Do they have plugs to be able to charge your laptop?
514
I knew every single cafe within my vicinity of where I lived in university.
515
When one closed, I'd go to the next one, which was then open till 10 p.m.
516
It was super efficient.
517
The last homework task is to research your future career field and then work accordingly.
518
Choose your job accordingly.
519
Choose your clubs accordingly.
520
Do online courses and exams and get certified accordingly.
521
You don't have to know this 100%.
522
You're still young.
523
But if you have a rough idea of a few little career fields you want to go into, start getting experience ASAP because your future self will thank you.
524
And that brings us to the end of the video.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
