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
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 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 interests 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!!!
