5 Tips for Staying Motivated
Tips 1-2
To
succeed in high school and college, you have to do your best at all times. But
sometimes it’s hard to stay motivated, even when you really care about the work
you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.
1.
Focus on high-impact activities
The
key to succeed in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to
get an overall picture of your workload before you start to tackle any of it.
Then make a plan. Although it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first,
those that take more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones that you’ll
learn the most from.
To
determine what your priorities are, rank assignments in the order of their importance.
Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest
impact on your course work and grades. For example, even though all homework assignments
are important, studying for midterm exam takes priority over writing a paragraph
for English class. As you complete each task, think of it as another step on
your way to college success.
2.
Create New Challenges
Changing
your approach can help you stay interested in what you’re doing. If you’ve been
given an assignment similar to one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a
different way. If you wrote an essay for a creative writing assignment last
year, try a poem this time. For book reports pick a history book instead of
another biography.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
