🌸 Study Motivation: Finding Joy & Peace in Your Studies 🌸
Hey lovely,
Studying doesn’t have to feel like a chore. It’s a chance to nurture your mind and set the stage for your bright future. Every little bit you do brings you closer to where you want to be. 📚 remember, everything starts with an idea, all you have to do is make a decision and stick to it, you are not alone in this journey, let me be there for you in your hard times, may my blog inspire you to study and reach all your academic, social, fitness and health goals! You got this!🎀
✨ Tip 1: Make Your Space Cozy
Create a little sanctuary for your study time. A soft pink blanket, your favorite sparkly pens, and a cozy corner can turn studying from a task into something that is very peaceful. Take your time—there’s no rush. Enjoy being in the moment and the state of flow that kicks in after 20 mins or so…🌸
✨ Tip 2: Take It One Step at a Time
You don’t need to do everything all at once. Break things into smaller chunks, and allow yourself little breaks in between. Focus on one task, then reward yourself with a few minutes to breathe and reset. (A good app to break down tasks is Neurolist, an app for ppl w ADHD, it’s truly a life saver!!!) 🌷
✨ Tip 3: Be Kind to Yourself
If you’re feeling frustrated, that’s okay. It’s part of the process. Don’t be hard on yourself—take a deep breath and remember: you’re doing your best. That’s enough. 💖
✨ Tip 4: Keep a Study log
Whether it’s a tumblr account, an instagram , your notes app, a physical bullet journal, it can really encourage you if you see pics of your studying notes, your completed checklist, the number of hours you have done in a week, a month, a year. I know I take pics of my work laid out on my table and it just makes me wish I had done more.
✨ Tip 5: Just start
The hardest part of studying is starting, I know from experience that once you start there is no stopping until you finish all that you have planned to do. Transform your environment in a way that encourages studying and discourages procrastination. Have a cute desk, light a candle, put your phone far away from you or use your timer so you can feel satisfied after you spent so much time studying. My method is counting to 3 then immediately starting, sometimes I don’t even take my copybook and I start on plain A4 paper. I only use electronics to watch videos of the lessons or have exercices and their correction afterwards!
Bonus tips:
- change your mindset: it’s a hobby not a chore
-plan cute snacks and nice healthy 0 cal drinks and water.
-buy cute pencil cases pens and notebooks that almost make you salivate from the thought of using them.
-be a perfectionist but forgive yourself when you can’t do it all, as long as you have done your 115% that day then you deserve a reward.
-take micro breaks but don’t open apps that distract you
-if you think you have ADHD, try to get a diagnosis ASAP!!! Being medicated changed my life.
-make sure you have a healthy sleep schedule, healthy eating habits and be active, (how does one expect to outperform everyone if they aren’t healthy, a healthy mind resides in a healthy body)
-Never get discouraged by a bad grade & never give up. The secret of straight A students is that no matter what happens they stick to the plan and they do they best everyday.
-The true studying happens after the homework. Don’t just do the homework. Revise, do layers and layers of revision, revise in all different kinds of ways. That’s the secret of academic success!
