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 to 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 books reports pick a history
book instead of another biography.
