- Find the right time of the day for studying
Tip: some students are early morning people, whereas some are night study people. See what suits you the best
- Ensure that you have had adequate sleep before you begin studying so that your brain is active and alert
- Make sure that you are not studying on an empty stomach, but see to it that you have also not overeaten
--------------------------------
#3: Silence is golden
--------------------------------
- Tell your family that you will be busy studying for another two hours, so that they do not disturb you when studying at home
- Keep your cell phone on silent even if the message or call is about academics or switch it off
--------------------------------
#4: Laser like focus
--------------------------------
- Switch off the TV and radio during study as it can divert your attention to non-study materials
- Stay away from using internet as it tempts you to get on to non-academic websites
--------------------------------
#5: Calm down
--------------------------------
- Incense sticks, aromatic candles or sprays can help you mentally relax while studying
- Ensure that your mind is free from stress
Tip: Note down things bothering you for the time being and explain that you will sort them later
- Once you are mentally settled, plan what and how you have to study in the given time so that a goal is set
--------------------------------
#6: Take a (small) break
--------------------------------
- Keep a bottle of water so that you remain hydrated during long hours of study
- Take short breaks while studying like a 5-minute break after an hour of continuous study. But ensure that during break time, your brain gets to relax
Tip: Checking the phone, watching TV or surfing internet are not recommended during break time.
