From the founder: PerformWell4Life

Learning to learn. By Dr Alten du Plessis, founder of LearnSmart4Life.

This course is for a learner whose studies include moments that count: an exam, a presentation, a long project or thesis, or the week after a disappointing mark. It was written for study, work and sport alike, so a student, a postgraduate and an adult learner each find their own examples in it.

PerformWell4Life helps you build the habits behind steady, sustainable performance. You practise setting process goals instead of carrying heavy expectations, recovering your composure after a mistake, protecting time for focused work, and managing your energy so that good work is something you can keep doing across a term, not a sprint you pay for later.

The early modules build the inner game: Managing Expectations in Study & Work, Building Bulletproof Confidence, and Composure & Recovery from Setbacks. The Academic Performance module brings it to your studies. My Exam Performance Plan treats an exam as a performance event in three phases: preparing beforehand, keeping focus and composure in the room, and reflecting afterwards. My Study Flow Activator helps you set up study sessions where you become absorbed in the work, starting with the balance between challenge and skill. My Academic Setback Recovery Plan turns a poor grade or critical feedback into next steps, and My Thesis/Project Mental Game Plan breaks a long project into milestones.

The course is organised by area, so you can go to the one you need. I suggest you begin with the first module, Understanding Your Performance Mindset, where What Are Your Expectations? helps you see what you carry into a performance. A free 24-hour trial of the whole course lets you look around first.
