Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I’ve read the same paragraph four times and it’s still not landing, and my only instinct is to grind harder at it
- I keep re-reading and highlighting because it feels productive, but it clearly isn’t sticking
- I just plunge into the work head-down and never come up for air, so a wrong approach runs all the way to the deadline before I notice
- I sit down to study with no real aim beyond "put in some time," so I drift, and an hour later I’ve technically been at it but couldn’t tell you what I can actually do now that I couldn’t before.
- I’ve followed the instructions enough times that I can repeat the steps, but I want to actually wrestle with a real problem myself
