5 Tips for Saving 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
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 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 towards those that have their
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 the 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. F or book reports pick a history book instead of another biography.
