Hi guys! So I was in uni, talking to some
of my course mates about exams and what a lot of them told me was that they
have had quite a number of moments where they have lacked motivation to study
and have had the urge to just give up…and it was a little comforting because
then I realised that I was not alone.
Well the fact that I am not the only one
who has to struggle sometimes to stay on track also means that there are
actually a lot of students out there who simply can not be bothered to study,
even if they want to; and so I found something on the internet which I wanted
to share with you. It is called the Peak Performance Study Guide and it talks
about why we get stressed, how to get over it and how to make the best out of
our studies. It is not a very long
article and it comes with a free study schedule sample. It can be downloaded on http://stressintofocus.com
For those who can not be bothered to go on
the website, it just simply advices us to:
·
Get enough sleep
·
Manage your time with a study
schedule
·
Use a to-do list
·
Take regular breaks
·
Eat properly
·
Prioritise
There is a lot more detail on the page; but
this is the summary. I know a lot of us have heard this over and over again;
but it does not hurt to be reminded…and I do hope it helps some one out there
in one way or the other. Also, if you are having problems with your revision,
do feel free to speak to your tutor/lecturer about it and I am sure they will
give you some valuable advice. It is also advisable to attempt a past question
before you see your tutor so that they can actually see how serious you are,
where you are having problems and offer advice tailored to your needs.
In the end, it all comes down to YOU and
how mentally strong you are; because no amount of advice and online guide can
help you pass your examinations if you simply will not put in the effort.
Good luck everyone! I will let you know how
my papers go. ^_^
xoxo
