motivation for Trials 2007 (1 Viewer)

[jannny]

School holidays just started, well for me anyway.. We got two weeks to kill ourselves but some people like me lack motivation.

Any tips to keep studying motivation up? thanks.

i was like that.

i had last week off as well, didn't do jack.
i realised, it's much easier if you stop thinkin long term - dont think you need to study for the trials

make a plan. and then follow it day by day.

instead of thinking "i need to finish all this before the trials/end of holidays"
just think "i need to finish all this by today."

block out everything but today...just make the work you've put aside for today - your ultimate aim.

focus on the short term goals instead of long term

makes life a lot easier

What a petty excuse. Don't try to compenstate your lack of discipline to complete the simple task of reading over a textbook, by creating threads, to find individuals who have fallen to your own pitful level.

^ take that as motivation at its harshest what else do you need, other than a blow at your dignity?

I actually dont mind studying, lol, even enjoyable at times, haha, ok not enjoyable... but not bad either

 

[jannny]

thanks pari for that wonderful suggestion.. short term goal equates to long term goal..

Maybe take a photo of yourself actually crying and stick onto an A4 piece of paper that has a big "FAIL" written on on top. Stick this in front of you while studying. It might scare you into studying because you'd be afraid of failing perhaps?

I'm thinking this might actually work.

I sorta agree with you, but just that it depends on the subject. For Japanese I'm ok with it, but with the boring ones like eng and chem... no way I can sit still. =="

i have a poster that i made that says "if you dont study you will fail your hsc and not go to university" with a big smily face underneath it.

I considered putting the UAI i want up, but i think that ^^ is a better one.

hahaha i might do that actually.

though the obvious irony in that is that now you will spend 30 minutes creating your poster instead of doing work.

lol, i agree here. you reach a point where you're so short on time, you just think....screw motivation, just do the work.
