5 Tips for Staying Motivated
Tips 1-2
To succeed inn high school and college, you have to do your
best at all times. But sometimes its 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 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 its 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 last year try a poem this time. For
book reports, pick a history book instead of another biography.
CHOOSE
THE RIGHT!
