I believe this is the most important part in order to be put together in life as we  are hoping up.

We all are lazy, no doubt. I'm not saying I am well organized but I definitely am now than I was before.

I think it hit me in the guts, when I started studying for real. During high school I always had this 'let's get this over with' vibe and mindset.

I didn't care for grades and I still don't 😂...

Uhm yeah, but my view on it changed a little.

I started taking things serious, wanting to learn more and challenge myself while I can.  It's more like I enjoy the stress and pain 😜 It's just another step into becoming bolder and better you know?

Find purpose in your studies to keep you motivated. I'm going to describe this more specific in another chapter. (Yes, almost every little thing I do has a certain chapter xD)

So here are some tips I use myself and scientifically proven studies I gathered up:

1. Plan ahead 📅

▪︎ Take a look at your schedule (school, part-time job, leisure time...) 👀

▪︎ Circle your free hours ( day, hour...) ⭕

▪︎ Calculate how much time is left before exams and use it as your study time 🧮

▪︎ Make sure split your time right and multitask 📈📉
(for example, 1 hour for due date of homeworks/projects on a certain day and 1 hour for exam prep) if you have plenty of time for your homework (like due date in 2 days) do it right away to save up spare time for essential studies.

▪︎ Write it down and stick to it! ✍🏼

Given example:

▪︎ Set reminders in your smartphone. 📲
We are always on our phones so turning on the notification when we are distracted it is a life saver. Or if you're not much of a screen lover, buy a journal and write all your due dates down. Make sure to check on it all the time.

2. Set goals 🏁

Alright mates, let me ask you a personal question and please answer with honesty.

What do you want to achieve in your life?

It can be small things, big things, materialistic or personal.

What matters is it is realistic.

I'm not here to crash your dreams alright XD

Hey! I used to wish I had a big arse mansion with the most luxurious cars! I had to be realistic of course as I grew older xD
