It is about being connected to who you are and how you feel, and knowing your own limits and abilities. And since it is very important, here are some activities that can help you to get in touch with your inner-self:
Study alone in a comfortable yet quiet environment.
Set goals for yourself, and monitor your progress regularly.
Reflect on what you have learned, and think through new material.
Create a connection between new material and subjects you already know, and gain understanding by finding their similarities.
Find 10 minutes every day for yourself. Enjoy, reflect and relax.
Exercise!
