      I would say, keep exploring the things you find interesting! Ask questions, and be curious.
      Hard work is definitely going to help too!

      My advice would be to seek out science which interests you! It’s easy, at school, to go to classes you don’t like or to do topics you don’t like and decide that you hate science as a whole or physics as a whole or biology as a whole. But there’s interesting things in every science and it’s important to discover it all!

      I’d also say that it’s important to stay focused on your work and your goals, but don’t let that manifest as stress and sleepless nights. If you need a day off take it – guilt free.

      I would say that you need to explore what makes you very curious and/or fascinate you. Work regularly and you will learn so much! And also never hesitate to ask questions when you do not understand something. There are no stupid questions!
