    @CookieMonster congrats!! How come you’re finishing so early though? I still have 4 more weeks til my last assignment/exam.

    The best thing I can suggest for studying is breaking things down into time increments rather than like, categories or content. Sit down and read for an hour rather than say, aim to read 2 chapters. If you have more achievable study goals you’re more likely to reach them and then stay motivated if you’re successfully reaching them.

    So I’m studying psychology and when I start using Facebook I literally think “Do I want to spend my life on Facebook or do I want to be a psychologist?” Putting my long term goals in the present really helps me with staying motivated. Also the saying (I can’t remember who said it) “How we spend our days is of course, how we spend our lives.” That made me see things quite differently!

    Reward yourself when you’ve done certain tasks @CookieMonster. If there was a show that I couldn’t help but watch and was finding it was a good excuse to procrastinate I turned it into a reward once I’d done certain things.

    Good luck with your last lot of assignments. Don’t fall into my trap, I signed up for Honours not long after finishing and then after that signed up to do a Masters. I can’t help but study lol
