ID Schools for Athletes

sachin:

I would get teased if I went home at an earlier time or if I had Sunday dinner with my parents, while my peers were working at school. If a classmate was going to pull an all-nighter, that means I would have to too. If a more talented classmate spent 5 hours on a hot car sketch, I would have to spend 8 hours to match that quality.

Looking back, I would probably be a more productive student if I was less paranoid and more focused on my priorities. I’ve gone through many all nighters and sleepless nights during school and I still don’t regret it. Its better to give it all and fail, then to just get by and do an ok job. As they say, “its better to lose a battle and to win a war.” I may not have gotten good grades in school and made plenty of mistakes, but I’ve learned a lot of technique and life experiences through those hard times. Those things are much more important to me now than a letter grade.

As a professional, I spend many long hours in the office and still pull all nighters. This time around, I’m more aware of time management, pacing and the importance of rest. Also as a professional, I still have to try to find the right balance between work and life!

So ID is still as demanding for professionals as it is for students?
