MedDream Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Does it help to know that others are feeling the same way? With the last of my 10 midterms tomorrow (UGG, AWFUL), I'm really having to drag myself through the motions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, I know how you feel. No motivation to do anything. What I do when I feel this way is try to never study alone, but study around other ppl, that way I wont waste time..

thehumanmacbook Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 tell me about it. Im studying for tests the night before now, Ive become so lazy. two words: video games. Pick a great RPG, get invested into it, stop and study. Eventually you'll start wanting to finish it, and it will be your motivation to study...BECAUSE WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT???? This works for me.

Cerena Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I posted a huge sign across from my bed that says med school on it, along with my rejection letter from mac. It's excellent motivation! Anytime I want to be lazy I just look at it. Did the same thing with my UBC rejection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cnussey Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Get greedy. Honestly. Go on a small shopping spree; eat unhealthy, delicious foods; take a hot bubble bath; get a new haircut; etc. Spoil yourself, take a break, and return to studying refreshed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once my mind is completely away from the books its 10x harder getting back into it lol. I say no breaks! one last push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehockeykid Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I just remember thinking to myself in first year that when i study now it is when it counts the most, i kind of forgot about this. Good thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerena Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 So effective! Seriously the best motivation I can think of. It's actually improved my grades a bit. It really does help! I think, though, one of the best things you can do to prevent yourself from burning out is to take breaks. And I have to agree with Cnussey about "getting greedy." You need to spoil yourself sometimes (I like to give myself a deep conditioning hair-masque treatment which makes my hair smell yummy, hang out with friends, eat delicious food - this weekend I made homemade delicious vegetarian sushi, and I try to relax... heaven). If I don't take some time for myself, I get super stressed out, I forget to eat, I get stomach pains... not worth it. And, on top of it, when I go back refreshed to do my school work I feel awesome.
