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 take the most time
and effort to accomplish are probably the ones you’ll learn the most from.
To determine what your priorities
are, rank your assignments to the order of their importance. Then, rearrange
your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on
your course work grades. For example, even all homework assignments are
important, studying for a midterm exam takes priority over writing a paragraph
for English class. As you completed each task, think of it as another step on
your way to college success.
2.
Creating 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!!!
