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!
