The Direct Approach "I prefer raising my hand or walking up to your desk to ask a quick, direct question."
The Digital Request "I prefer sending a quick email or Canvas message outlining exactly what I'm stuck on."

The Quiet Signal "I prefer using an active color cup, sticky note, or simple gesture to prompt a check-in."

Step 1: Goal Mapping
Finding Your North Star
Be Ultra-Specific
Vague goals fail. Instead of "Get better grades," target exact subjects, scores, or milestones.
Example "Raise Algebra to a B by submitting all homework on time."
Identify "The Why"
If you don't care about the result, you won't do the work. Find a personal motivator that drives you.
Example "So I can feel confident during tests and reduce my school stress."
