Set Up a Study Space Your bed should not be your study space! Find a place with:
Little distractions ie no tv, no loud noises, etc.
Everything you need: all your supplies and stationery
The right temperature, too cold & you’ll lose focus, too hot & you’ll feel sleepy
Snacks, so you won’t have to keep going away from your desk
Water: stay hydrated !!
Exercise Before studying. It will boost your energy levels and help keep you focused. You don’t have to do a full workout or anything, try going for a quick walk!!
Know your Goal And how you’re going to achieve it! If you know your goal it will be so much easier to stay on task. Perhaps have a reminder of what you aspire to do or the grades you want on the wall in front of you so it’s what you see when you look up!
Try Some Background Noise It will help block out other noises and help you stay focused!
