Can you provide some tips for improving my productivity when studying?
assistant
1. Break down big tasks into smaller chunks to make them easier to tackle and manage.
2. Utilize time management tools such as getting a planner or scheduling blocks of time on a calendar.
3. Set modest goals to keep yourself motivated and on track towards attaining your larger goals.
4. Need a break? Take a few minutes every hour or two to get away from the papers or books and just relax.
5. Change up where you are studying often. Doing the same activity in the same location can lead to boredom and a decrease in productivity.
6. Reward yourself for successes to keep yourself motivated.
7. Eliminate all distractions. Put the cell phone away and stay off of social media when trying to concentrate on studying.
8. Create a study plan outlining what areas you need to cover and how to approach them.
