How do you find the motivation to study?

Hi there lovely! Oh, goodness, motivation can be such a tricky thing, can’t it? I’ll be honest with you: it took me the longest time to realise that I wasn’t always going to be motivated to study. I mean, sure, there’s the days where things go exactly as you planned and you cross a million things off your to-do list - which, in turn, makes you super motivated - but it’s mostly about the days where you just can’t seem to find any motivation to get anything done. 

So here are some tips to get you through days like that:

Write it off as a “Dark Day”. When things get super overwhelming and you can’t find any motivation to get anything done and it’s possible, it might be time to have a break. Don’t do anything, and just enjoy time with a good book or your favourite TV show and your favourite snacks - have a dark day! Sometimes, it’s just what you need and I’m a really big advocate for taking days off!!

Try the Pomodoro method. Okay, so you might not always be in the position to take a day off but you still need to get stuff done and you’re super unmotivated. One of the things that’s always helped me on days like that is the Pomodoro method. Basically, you set a timer for 25 minutes and commit to studying for just 25 minutes. Don’t do anything else. Just sit down and study. I’ve found that getting started usually helps me get into the groove and say, okay, I’ve already started, let’s continue. You can also start with 10 to 15 minutes, if you feel more comfortable with that.

If neither works, promise yourself a reward. Sometimes, it’s as simple as saying, okay, self, so that thing you’ve been coveting forever? You get it if you study all week. All week, no excuses, just sit down and get your work done.

I’ve also got a whole tag dedicated to motivation - I hope this helps a little! xx

15 things I tell myself when I don't want to work/study

1. You are very lucky and privileged to have access to almost unlimited knowledge and you should appreciate that. 2. Be one of those rare people who step over their insecurities and succeed. 3. Only 5 minutes. Only today. (Repeat it 5 minutes later and every day). 4. You will know what to do as soon as you start. Ideas never appear from inactivity. 5. Make yourself proud. 6. One hour every day doesn’t feel much but it’s 365 hours a year. You can’t not succeed after so much work. 7. It’s not supposed to be easy. Nothing good is easy. 8. If you had a child to look after, you’d make them study because you want them to accomplish something. Don’t you love yourself? 9. “Everything you want is on the other side of fear” George Adair 10. Every mistake increases our chance to make progress. 11. If you give up now, you’ll have to return to this later anyway but from the very beginning. 12. Let the process be your result. 13. Every moment you thought your fears would suppress you has become the time you made it. 14. Maybe you think you can never find something to use your skills and mindset for. But if you continue investing in what matters to you, it will find its way out there. 15. I allow you to think globally. You have a right to the boldest dream.
