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
high 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 towards those that have the greatest impact on your course
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 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 last year, try a poem this time. For
book reports, pick a history book instead of another biography.
