Hmm...The clouds are crying today. In this episode, Aya explores the cavern of academic validation. As students, it is our worst nightmare to fail subjects but how about the overachievers? They are those who feel like a single mistake on a quiz will crumble them to death—which brings us to our topic for today which is the good and bad side of academic validation. While it may become a motivator for many, it can also be the worst enemy you will ever have once you are so comfortable with it, making it so that instead of you, studying hard for the purpose of learning, you are studying not to fail. Add the factor of the online setup we have today, where it feels like a sin to absent one class because you're extremely sick just for the fear of failing. "There is no harm in self-improvement, but there is harm in overworking yourself; you must learn to take time for your own well-being. Academic validation is a poisonous, unforgiving mindset that extends to the limit of your ability." (Kloza, K. et al., 2021). Watch how Aya punches herself with her own talk whereas she makes academic validation soOOO important for her as an achiever and yet she lowkey knows that she will gradually suffer from it.
PS. Are there even people who reads this description corner? hahaha XD.
