Things to Remember for a Successful CPA Review (Credits to ReSA)
1. Do it for the right reason(s). Who does not hope to win has already lost. So believe in yourself, work hard and you will emerge as a winner.
2. Assess your situation. You must know where you are before you determine how to get where you want to be. " Never underestimate your own intelligence and never overestimate the intelligence of others."
3. Make a commitment. Passing the Board Exam should be one promise that you keep to yourself. If you want it bad enough, you'll find a way to get it done. Remove your fear. Remember everything we want is on the other side of fear! so to be successful, you have to overcome the fear of failure.
4. Prepare! There are (3) types of preparation: preparation for: competence, speed and endurance.
5. Live in the Present. Focus. Be where you are. The past is gone - all you can do is learn from it. (what works, what doesn't). The future is uncertain. All you have is the present. Make the most of it, and you will have no regrets. Nothing beats going to sleep, greatly exhausted, but victorious - knowing you gave your best.
"I never quite understood why people neglect to see what is right in front of them. Life is moving while they just stand and watch. Minutes, days, and hours pass and by the time they realize it, that opportunity ceases to exist."
6. Be a professional. Being a professional requires that you go ahead with the review, no matter how you feel, and no matter what the circumstances are. True winners do not stop when the going gets tough.
7. Be a problem solver. Treat every difficulty as an opportunity, a chance to become a better person. Problems should make you stronger, not weaker. Do not wither under problems or try to avoid them - instead, be brave and actively seek problems and immediately work on the solution
8. God is in control. No matter how hard the review becomes, no matter how hard the Board question seem, remember there is Someone who is always in control. If things seem to be getting out of hand, do not panic. God is in control - if you let Him be.
Also Remember: In life we may not always be victorious... however, with your strong desire to always compete, never give-up mentality and a positive attitude, you will never truly know defeat!
