Study Motivation

Question

I always end up feeling dead when working on any school work. I also have a lot of trouble procrastinating and all that stuff. In all honesty usually I end up procrastinating till morning. I (somehow) have managed to keep straight A's but I don't think it will last with me like this. I want to be able to work efficiently and study (since I don't like at all). So do ya'll have any tips to help me with this?

Answer 1

Here's how I fixed my procrastination from a fellow procrastinator! (a little bit it's still bad lol)

1) The best advice I can give you is to structure your time! Set study break alarms on your phone or with a timer, and give yourself a bunch of little 15 to 30-minute blocks of study time interrupted by 5 minutes of break time.

2) Once you're on a roll, you can increase the study time as to not interrupt your flow.

3) Tell yourself that procrastination isn't going to make time go away, it only prolongs your suffering and homework! Install study Chrome extensions that block distraction sites.

4) Have your parent check in with you every hour if they're available

As someone who is not a procrastinator, #1 is VERY helpful. (I’ve used #1 a couple times, when I was working on something for 10 hours (my math book) and I didn’t get burnt out)
