article: Almost every teacher is willing to give extra credit, even if it's not something they talk about openly to the entire class. If you'd like to raise your grade, talk to them in private. Ask if you can do some extra work for a few extra points. They'll likely be impressed that you want to work so hard most students are dying to work less. And if you're a good student already, this can get your grade up to above 100%. What's that mean? Wiggle room for a different, harder class. Now that's a win-win. Sometimes in order to get a rockin' GPA you've got to make some sacrifices. If you're taking a hard class load, play soccer, do gymnastics, are in the school play, participate in jazz band, and head the debate team, something's gotta go you're spreading yourself too thin. Take a step back and think about what matters the least to you. What could you live without the easiest? Then you can re-allot that time to studying. In other words, make time. Is one of your activities a daily afternoon nap? That could be cut, too. It doesn't necessarily have to be connected to your school. What it boils down to is that you need time for studying and studying well. If time isn't in your schedule to do that already, you'll need to make it. Turns out teachers are human beings, who knew? If you're a good student who wants to do better, they're going to want to help you out (when their students do better, it makes them look good, too). Don't be shy talk to them. Ask them for pointers. Ask them what you can do to get your grades up. They may have the answer. Some schools have something that's called "Course forgiveness." They'll let you retake a class or drop the lowest grade from a class. Talk to your professors if something like this might be available for you. Sometimes students are on the cusp of a better grade. If a teachers knows and likes you, you may get the benefit of the doubt a 79% could be upped to a C- instead of a D+. If nothing else, talk to your teachers to get into their good graces. Developing a relationship with your teacher, as you can probably tell by now, is important to get your GPA as high as it can be. Most teachers have office hours, so use them. Not just to ask for extra credit and to brown nose them, but just to talk about the coursework. Ask them questions about what you're finding difficult, talk to them about concepts that you want to know more about. Friends are great, but your teacher is your ultimate resource. Teachers have connections, too. If you show you're made of the right stuff, they may be able to get you into a different class, connect you to an advisor at a college, or pull some other string for you you didn't even know could be pulled. There are plenty of reasons getting to know your teacher works in your favor. Even with being organized and studying, sometimes school is hard. We can't all be Einsteins at everything, so you may have to buckle down and admit "I need a tutor." If you don't know where to start, ask your teacher or a student counselor. Most schools have tutor programs to help their students who need it and to give students credit who are offering the help. It's a win-win for both sides. There's no shame in it. Even some ridiculously smart students get tutors so they can be even ridiculously smarter. Competition is getting more and more fierce, and any leg up you can get is the right way to go. Some schools offer free tutors. However, if you can't find one that fits your budget, even working with a friend, or older sibling or neighbor will be helpful. Two minds are always better than one.

A big part of being a competent strategist is knowing when to switch tactics. Developing goals is wonderful, but you also must be willing to terminate a plan or incorporate new strategies if you are not getting the anticipated results. If, upon reassessment, you find that you do not see the progress you would like, go back to step one. Consider what and why your methods are not working. Examine what resources you currently have at your disposal. Then, come up with some new ways of meeting your objectives. Know that it takes time to meet many goals. Don't switch strategies until you can confirm that the tactic is, in fact, not working. In some cases, you may not have given your methods enough time to show results. Consider this scenario: you are aiming to build up a long-term savings account. You were able to consistently deposit a set amount into the account every week. After successfully moving towards this goal for a period of time, you might decide to increase the amount you are depositing each week to meet your long-term goal faster. If you are closed to new ideas and techniques, you limit yourself. An essential part of your arsenal as a strategist must be a willingness to be wrong, to be surprised, and to find inspiration in the most unlikely of places. If keeping an open mind poses a challenge for you, try the following tips: Listen more, even to those with lesser titles than you. Reinforce those who have the courage to try new things or make changes. Gather all the facts before making a decision. A good strategist is like a sponge, constantly soaking up knowledge and experiences. Because science and technology are always evolving, you must understand that you, too, must educate yourself to stay abreast. Learn by reading books, watching films and documentaries, and completing online and in-person training in your given area. Regularly acquire new skills. Observe others to see how they are doing things. Ask questions; never assume you know everything. A capable strategist has mastered the notion of foresight, or he has someone on his team who has this skill. Many great leaders and businesses are toppled because a new trend or technique rendered their old methods useless. In order to prevent this, one must anticipate and plan for challenges. Do this by: Staying connected. Keep your finger on the pulse of the people. Know what their challenges are. Researching your area of expertise. Stay abreast of new trends, products, and the users' response to them. Consult with the customer or end-user. Consider their opinion on new initiatives. Develop special teams to anticipate and respond to challenges.
