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
They key to success 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 your
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 a 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 least year, try a poem this time. For book
reports, pick a History book instead of another biography.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
