Studying Tips when you are easily distracted
Pomodoro Technique, I can't stress it enough how helpful it is. There are many apps, and some allow to change the amount of time for breaks and work. Maybe you can't do 25, then do 15. Others need more time to get "in the zone" and can do 40 minutes.
During breaks, walk away from your desk/workspace. Don't go to far, look through a window, take a glass of water, go to the bathroom, or if you can go outside for a few seconds to take deep breaths of fresh air. The important thing is to mentally detach yourself from that task to reset your mind.
Change subjects. Don't spend four hours on the same topic, it gets way too boring. Divide your time between a subject you like and one that is harsher for you and viceversa.
One hour a day does 100% more for your productivity than five hours of cramming the night before.
Your brain won't function properly if sleep deprived. It doesn't matter how much you studied all night, more often than not you will fail from exhaustion. And no, caffeine doesn't do the trick, it will just give you more anxiety. It's like a rollercoaster of crap. Trust me, been there done that, it sucks.
Make a list of all the things you need to do in order of importance and urgency. Instead of a boring check mark, draw flowers or whatever you like and once completed you can color them.
Your head won't remember everything you have to do, take a small notebook with you everywhere and write down (right in that moment or you will forget), tasks, chores, homework, assignments, essays, etc.
You don't have to make your notes as perfect as the one from pinterest or studyblr (in my opinion that takes way too much time to do and is not that productive), but adding color, sticky notes or small drawings can make it much more pleasant to look at.
Eliminate from your desk/workspace all distractions, or as much as you can. Some of the pomodoro apps I mentioned before, they ring when time is up, it's automatic. So, you can put away your cellphone to not be tempted to scroll through social media.
If you have spent quite a few hours studying, take a long break (not in your bed). You should move to stimulate blood circulation. You could listen your favorite music and dance while eating a snack. Or maybe water your plants, do your prayers if you're religious, anything that isn't related to study. Your mind will thank you.
Know when to stop, it's unhealthy if you overdo it. Melatonin, sleep hormone, usually starts production around 9 o'clock (my psychiatrist told me this) and between 10 and 12 is the moment when your body rest the best.
Also, Melatonin can be affected by blue light emitted from screens. If you can try to avoid them for at least two hours before going to sleep. So that you can regain a normal sleep schedule. This will also improve your mood and eventually your concentration.
There are apps (at least for Android, don't know for Apple) that can block the usage of other apps. It's very helpful and until now it has given me great results.
Make sure to take time to practice your hobbies, hangout with friends, spend time with your family or walk your pet. Your entire life can't be about studying and grades. If you don't enjoy the process of going to highschool/college, you will end up hating it. Even if it's just for 15 minutes. Allow yourself to not be productive. You are not a machine. It's okay to relax from time to time. Your mental health is more important. Even at the cost of success.

he’s so pretty hELP
Because of the election, and trumps loss, trumpies and hate groups are going crazy. This doesn't mean that there will be a giant race war or anything big, but it does mean everyone should be careful, especially minorities.
Click here for a website that shows a map of hate groups and their locations.
If you are near or in the places listed, stay safe. ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN THE EAST OR SOUTH.
Don't go out by yourself if you dont have to, carry tazers, pepper spray, a pocket knife, a gun etc. Your elbow is the strongest point in your body if you have no weapon, aim for genitals, eyes, and pinch their underarm if you can. Make a lot of noise too.
If you get attacked and they don’t have a weapon, only their hands, kick them in the knees, hit them really hard in either the throat or grab the jugular and slam them down and RUN. Or if you’re locked in a headlock or something, if your arms are free, raise your hand up and using the palm of your hand SLAM it FORWARD not up (up could kill them and even though it’s self defense it’s still risky) straight into their nose and take the chance to get away. If you need to, pinch really hard in the thighs, go for the genitals, or shove your fingers in the eye
Tumblr only allows one video per post, but I do recommend looking at this TikTok page and looking at other tutorials and safety tips.
Share your location with someone reliable, and if you cant them there are safety button apps that will alert the police listed below.
Noonlight
Life 360 (a location sharing app, you can add people in your household to it and there's a safety button included)
Bond - Personal Security
There are many more than this of course but these are more reliable that most.
