How to Stay Motivated while Studying

Here are tips for your children who are studying:

1. Change pens – whenever you are tired of writing, you change your pen. I might change to a ball point from a gel or ink pen, from blue ink to black ink, and from a pink pen to green pen. Just using a different pens gives a fresh start of your writing, and you automatically focus on your handwriting and indirectly on studying.
2. Use sticky notes – if you want to break the monotony of those off white colored pages and black or blue inks, add some color using the stick notes. Use this trick, and your motivation level remains unchanged.
3. Take breaks – and when you’ve studied so much and there’s absolute 0% of motivation left to study, know that you have to take a break, but don’t stretch that break for too long, let it be of 16 to 30 minutes.
4. Use colorful pens – often when we are writing and we get bored of it, we take our highlighters and start highlighting all the topics. It’s like a few minutes of break for us. We love to see some colors on the pages.
5. Study from videos- we’re out of motivation probably because we’ve not understanding anything. If at all you come across some concepts that are beyond you, you can study from YouTube. I’m sure you’ll get something or the other out there.
6. Chat with friends(related to studies) – Trouble your friends when you feel troubled! You can check your mobile phone and meanwhile message your friends asking about doubts or how much of the portion they’ve finished studying. By this way, you can know their status, which will keep you motivated.
7. Read(or write) – For the internals, whenever you are bored of writing down self-notes, you try reading notes, while underlining/highlighted important lines. And whenever you felt bored of reading, you start writing. This change in study pattern definitely kept you interested to study throughout the day.
8. Change Positions – You can change the position if you want. Whenever you’re tired of sitting upright, you can lie down and read. If you’re feeling sleepy while lying down, sit upright. Change your positions so you won’t be low on motivation.
9. Tick off from the checklist – finally, make a checklist or a study schedule, and tick the topics, chapters, answers off as soon as you finish studying them. This will motivate you to study more and more and make you happy along with it.
