are you a student who loves to learn but you feel like you're too easily distracted and you're afraid if you can't focus your grades will suffer and you'll never achieve your goals well it's not a bad thing it's just your unique neurobiology your traits matched you into kitsune club understanding who you are will help you reach your full potential you see we're all about self-discovery here at cajun koi academy first let's revisit your brain type kitunes are wind types which give them adaptable traits their prefrontal circuits are wired for dynamic responses making them charismatic and
creative kitsunes are excitable and live dramatically people see a kitsune and think that's a rookie who knows how to party they're a fun time but probably chaotic too their limbic system the part of the brain that regulates emotions is wired to be highly reactive to stimulation making kitsunes curious sensitive and spontaneous but enough of the nerdy stuff let's talk about how this neurobiology translates into kitsune's personality and behavior when it comes to student skills let's start with critical thinking because understanding the way we think tells us everything how does a kitsune think how do they
learn and problem solve kitsunes are dynamic thinkers they're energetic and eager to take in as much information as fast as possible so they naturally approach problem solving by jumping in and getting their hands dirty they prefer to try first think later this means they tend to be fast learners especially when picking up highly technical skills but they also quickly forget what they learn so as a kitsune you should always try to schedule in review time to reinforce what you learn to make it stick don't be too hasty to move on and make sure you keep
what you already have now let's talk about what is arguably the most powerful quality of a kitsune their boundless curiosity kitsunes get easily absorbed into their work and even the least stimulating subjects can be fascinating to them but this can be a good and a bad thing we can never know for sure which way the wind blows kitsune's curiosity is unpredictable sure being curious and excitable makes learning easier but kitsunes are often impulsive and bounce from interest to interest so frequently that they don't spend enough time mastering anything just because a kitsune can act quickly
doesn't make them more productive if they get bored and can't follow through kitsunes also have a tendency to multitask which can be counterproductive when they need to do things that require more focus so be aware of this and reel yourself in if you jump ship too soon this is a nice segue into time management because now we can combine what we know about their motivation with their energy level typically kitsunes are most productive when they can follow their own interests throughout the day because they're so spontaneous kitsunes do very well without a strict schedule they
also enjoy spontaneously snacking throughout the day instead of meals kitsunes thrive when they have a list of projects to work on freely for instance pick a class to study for a habit to build and a hobby toller have these projects on rotation and when you get bored of one you can move on to another by the time you get to the third one you might regain motivation for the first one now let's move on to everyone's favorite topic stress management the most overlooked and underrated student skill is being able to reflect on how stress affects
us and if we can manage it that's a good sign we're in control but aside from the usual stress about exams and school what are the other big sources of stress for kitsunes a lot of it ties back to the kitsune's heightened responses to stimulation because they are very sensitive kitsunes feel stress when their mind is allowed to overthink this stress response is especially noticeable when they're scrutinized let's say a kitsune overhears a classmate tell them they're being weird akitsune's mind will run wild getting lost in thought loops or daydreams about all the possible implications
of a very harmless statement they react with excessive worry and concern kitsunes are the classic overthinkers and often exaggerate consequences of most situations which makes them prone to anxiety some kitsunes struggle with symptoms similar to adhd like difficulty focusing or impulsivity but don't forget that everyone feels those symptoms from time to time just know that your anxiety follows the same pattern as your motivation it comes and goes like the wind so we want to acknowledge these feelings realize that it's part of our neurochemistry and not let them determine our actions or worse harm those around
us pay attention to how you respond to stressors practice mindfulness and bringing your attention back to the present when it begins to wander although the spirit of kitsune club is strongest in you don't forget that all three types of focus energy are inside us there will be times when your torah or kuma energy shine through so don't fixate on any limiting beliefs that you might have about yourself the kitsune club isn't meant to place you into a box instead let it be your guide in personal reflection and self-discovery kitsunes are creative and many often rise
to become brilliant innovators after graduation from cajun coin step into this role of learning as much as you can and share that knowledge with others around you so what will you do next rookie pick up some study skills in the classroom or hop in for a productive study session at the study hall the choice is yours [Music] you
