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 Activates
The key 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 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 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.
