Toxic Study Motivation

Thought it might be fun for everyone to write their best piece of toxic study motivation.
Feel free to come back to this thread when you don't feel motivated enough to study.

I have a gold star stuck in front of my desk that says "you tried"- motivates me every time I see it

Well... my chemistry teacher throws my test papers on my desk and always tells me to do better? He's called me 'incompetent' around twice and got mad when I got one mark below a 9 in my GCSE mocks...

But in a way it kind of works - I spend a lot more time on chemistry than my other subjects due to fear of disappointing him 🤣
