I can do this.

I’m going to manage my money and control my spending so I can work as little as possible and allow myself as much time as I can to devote to school.

I’m going to make studying and doing my homework my first priority, even if it kills my social life and/or my sanity.

I’m going to not only pass all my classes, but do well in them - at least a 3.0. (I never thought I’d see the day that a 3.0 GPA was an ambitious and hard-to-reach goal, but that’s a whole other topic.)

I will make this semester different. I have to.

I can do this.

Right?
