How to Study- when you’re unmotivated

Hello everyone! Today we’re gonna tackle the big question: How can I study when I have no motivation, at all?

I’ve just gone through a whole week full of tests and I’m really tired of revising material, again and again. Yes, even I lose motivation to study sometimes!

So, let’s move on to the tips.

1. Set goals and visualise them. And imagine what will happen in the long run. If I really work hard for this exam, I’ll be going up that stage in front of 500 students to receive that .prize that everyone’s eyeing for. Take Oprah Winfrey, as an example. As a child watching her grandmother toil away, Winfrey says she’d tell herself over and over again: “My life won’t be like this. My life won’t be like this, it will be better.”

2. Break down your tasks into tinier chunks. That way, you’ll feel like you’re being more productive and feel more motivated to cross of the entire list.

3. 10 minutes rule. Your brain will think it’s more acceptable to learn 10 minutes, but when you are learning, you may want to continue to finish the task (which will exceed 10 minutes).

4. Study with friends/a pal/family member. This tip varies, it depends whether your friends/buddy/family member is supportive and will actually motivate you to get your work done. I’m not really into the whole ‘group study’ style, because well, I’m not that productive if there are people around me.

5. Get the help you need. If you’re still confused about algebra, ask your teacher for help. He/she won’t bite! Instead, they’ll be pleased that their student has the initiative to ask for an explanation.

6. Think about how privileged you are, being in a school and having an access to education. Many kids out there don’t even go to a school. Be thankful people!

7. Acknowledge Your Accomplishments

Reward yourself when you complete a task. Snack on some granola bars, watch a YouTube vid— whatever that makes you happy . Then move on!

That’s all! Hope you have a really productive study session after trying out these tips + tricks!

changing majors

so, i just recently changed my major AGAIN and hopefully this is for the final time. as i was doing this, i realized something. everyone around me kept asking me if i REALLY wanted to do this, if i REALLY thought it was the best choice for me, WHY i was doing it, and all that. they could not seem to fathom why I wanted to change it again and were much more cautious about the idea than i was.

i originally was an english major. i was fresh out of high school and i had always enjoyed english so i figured, yep that is where i should be. i wanted to be a writer and an editor. that sounded perfect to me. it took me one class to show me that ACTUALLY my true passion is education and helping others, specifically children.

whenever i considered the idea that i didnt want to be an english major anymore, it really took me aback. i thought that i couldnt possibly change my major. i felt like i had been so stupid for working so hard towards an english degree and then now wanting to change it. i spent countless hours lying awake at night going over whether i should change it or not.

then i dropped out of college bc of a problem with financial aid and personal issues. during the time i was off of school, i worked a variety of jobs and got my own place. i spent all my time researching education and knew in my heart that working with children and helping them learn was very important to me. not only that, but i was extremely interested in child development and behavior.

so then i went back to community college to finish up my associate’s to make myself competitive for the university i would transfer to in the fall. i was taking classes for an elem ed major and loved them! i loved my classes! they were so interesting and taught me so much! but when i signed up for my classes for the fall, i felt a strange disconnect bc now the classes were focusing less on the psych behind child development and more went into the practicum experiences.

then i was suggested to join the bat program (behavior analysis and therapy) within the college of ed and human services. immediately i knew in my heart tat this is what i wanted. the first time i changed majors, it took me honestly like four months to finally make up my mind. the second time, it took me about a day. why did it hardly take me any thought to change my major?

bc when you’re going to college, you should love what you are doing. you should love to be studying what you are studying and want to keep diving into the knowledge and textbooks at your disposal. you should be striving to do your best and to excell in everything you do there. i was in those ed courses, but they were straying away from what i wanted to do, especially my end goal. i want to be able to conduct my own research when i get out of college and that would be difficult working as a full time elementary teacher. it did not seem to fit. but becoming a board certified behavioral analyst? now that could surely fit.

when you’re stuck between two majors or even a few consider your options. what speaks to you the most? which subject makes you the most happy? feel the most fulfilled? what could you do for the rest of your life and smile about doing? what could you read hundreds of books on and yet never be satisfied? whatever that is, set your eyes on that path and follow where it leads. dont get that accounting degree just bc you will make decent money. dont go into nursing if you cant stand all the math and science classes. do what your passion tells you to do. feel out your path and then make sure that you are continually wanting that. passions change over time but what should never change is your happiness. find what makes you truly happy.

A reminder for the girls with big plans

To all the girls with big dreams, who have been told that they are ‘too preoccupied with success’, or that they are ‘too selfish’ or ‘too ambitious’ - do not listen to the people who speak those words. If you love something that much, and will pursue it to the ends of the earth, do not give it up for anyone. Hold it close to your heart and understand that you are not obligated to dim your sparkle for anybody. In your life, there will always be people who tell you that you are too much or too little. They will say a woman is too assertive, or too reserved. They will say she feels too little or too much, that ambition is selfish. They may even be hurt or offended that you do not think the same. Yet at the end of the day, know in your heart that you are the only one who will ever know whether you are truly enough and that is what’s important. Go out there and smash the glass ceiling to pieces.

shock

in college there are only two moods:

1. i can do this! after outlining everything i need to do, it doesn’t seem so bad. in fact it’s very methodical and easy to follow and i can do it.

2. oh my god its happening. its the end for me. i might as well be dead. everything is due now. i was put on this earth to suffer. i have two essays due in 45 seconds and all ive eaten today is half a goldfish cracker. i can only feel pain

also these moods go back and forth every hour

DO NOT GIVE OR GET ANY VACCINATIONS FOR YOURSELF OR YOUR KIDS………..

blu-thoth

Ok, lets break this down nice and simple.

Formaldehyde is from the purification of the vaccine. 99.9% of which is removed. The reason it doesn’t give a dosage is the ammount is so minuscule that it can’t be measured without going into picograms. That’s one trillionth of a gram. You breathe in more formaldehyde by driving down a busy road than in a vaccine.

Thimerosal is NOT elemental mercury, It is a molecular compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, mercury, sodium, oxygen, and sulfur. This is used as a preservative for the vaccine. Thimerosal is used in a variety of other things, like tattoo ink, facial creams, nasal sprays. It’s toxic to humans only in fairly large quantities but highly toxic to aquatic born organisms like infectious bacteria. In short, it makes sure you don’t get salmonella from a stray bacteria from the chicken embryos. As for the dosage of the Thimerosal. That is the most laughable point in this post. It says 25 mcg, that’s micrograms, or one millionth of a gram. To put this in perspective, a dollar bill weighs roughly 1 gram, the average human eyelash is around 80-90 micrograms. The box also says that it contains a 5ml (milliliter/cc) vial which leads me to my next point.

A little simple math and we find out that 25 mcg = 0.00003 ml and a little more math we find that 0.00003 ml is 0.00006% of 5 ml. Let me put this another way. By the age of 5, an American child weighs about 50-55lbs and their body contains 55 mcg of Uranium. I don’t see any kids running around with radiation sickness, so I think they’re safe with a preservative in them. TL;DR: This is like saying you don’t want your child eating their baked birthday cake because raw eggs were used to make it and you don’t want your child getting salmonella from it.

Thank you so much person.

Reminder: Anti-vaxxers are morons who don’t understand immunology, biology, or chemisty. Not only that, but they’re arrogant enough to think they know more than actual scientists, and are willing to bet their childrens’ lives on that

doctorkintsugi

See, this is the thing. I don’t think they’re morons because they don’t understand the science. I think they’re morons because they don’t believe the scientists.

school mindset

essays - make each essay you write better than the last

  small assignments - aim for 100s, expect 100s, get 100s

  homework - pretend they’re assignments

  homework that’s not graded - pretend! they’re! assignments!

  tests - study for 100s, expect less

  long term projects - act like it’s due in four days -even when it’s not- until you’re done with it

  group projects - do not get angry

  presentations - pretend you’re obama

disclaimer - this works for me, it may not work for everybody, do not push yourself too hard!!
