5 Tips for
Staying Motivated
Tip 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 succ3ess 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 the 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 youre 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
