bad study habits to leave in 2017
cramming the night before. do a little every day and get a good night sleep before the test
procrastinating. promise yourself youâll do 5 minutes of a task youâve been putting off for a while. youâll be surprised how quickly that 5 minutes turns into 10 and 10 into an hour and before you know it youâll be done and able to enjoy guilt-free leisure time
not asking for help. make the most of your teachers and classmates who want you to succeed. donât suffer in silence
saying yes to everything. itâs important to try new things but itâs also important to have enough spare time to see your friends and get enough sleep
being distracted. turn off the tv. turn off your phone. focus on studying so you can get your assignments done as efficiently as possible so you can enjoy your free time
not having a planner. this doesnât have to be a beautiful bullet journal. just make sure you have a way of keeping on top of everything you have to do so you donât get overwhelmed whether thatâs in a store-bought diary or in you phoneâs calendar
eating (too much) junk. fuel your body and your mind with fruit and veg. if youâre at university try cooking in bulk to keep costs down. youâll be able to concentrate better if youâre eating well
not taking breaks. your brain needs to take breaks, even if you have a big test coming up. for every hour you spend studying take a 10 minute break and stretch/make a snack/take a shower/call a friendÂ
not rewarding yourself. take time to be proud of everything youâve achieved so far. enjoy the success youâve worked so hard for
