Feeling burnt out? Feeling tired? Feeling stressed? Feeling like no matter how hard you try you just can't get the grades you want? Well it's time to turn that frown upside down and change all your problems into awesome possibilities!
Below are 14 tips that can turn your study stress into study success in only a few minutes!
1. Create goals for yourself. Write down your goals and include everything you want to achieve this year and all the years that follow. Then look at your goals every day so that you know them off by heart. If you don't know what you want you will never be motivated to take action!
2. Identify obstacles that stand in your path. Figure out those things that are preventing you from achieving your goals - and then remove them from the picture. Don't allow time-wasters (like video games) and energy-suckers (like hopeless friends) to steer you off on a path you don't want. Know what you want.
3. Identify the actions you need to take. It's one thing to write out your goals. It's another things altogether to understand what it will take to make them happen. Figure out what the actions are that make up your goals. What will take you from where you are now to where you want to go?
4. Give your actions a priority. Now that you know what you need to do to get what you want it's time to give those actions a priority. Which actions need to happen straight away? Which ones can you hold off on for a week or a month? Whatever you do, make sure you are taking action. The difference between success and failure is more times than not simply take some action. So do something!
5. Imagine how successful you are going to be. Focus your thought on your success. Think about all the achievements you are going to have. Think about what it will mean to you when you reach your goals. Focus only on that. Can you taste it?
6. Create affirmations and then read them every day. Write down whatever you need to tell yourself each day to get yourself pumped up, grateful for life and ready to rock. Then make sure you can fit it into your school bag, wallet or purse so that you can read it whenever you want some inspiration.
7. Learn how to breathe and stretch. Yes, we all know how to breathe! But what matters is breathing for the purpose of relaxation. Does it get you into a Zen state of calm? Stretching also helps move the blood around and get you feeling good. So breathe, stretch and repeat. Always repeat. And don't forget to rinse!
8. Read and watch. Find someone (or many people!) you want to be like. Then read their books and watch their YouTube videos. Engage with them in any way you can. Listen to them. Do what they do. You don't need to reinvent the wheel to be a success, just do as successful people do. That's being smart.
9. Love every minute. There is no point "existing". You need to "live". What does it mean to live? It means loving what you're doing - at all times. Now, it's hard to get excited about school or work each day, there is no question about that, but your life is short and you need to enjoy it. You need to make each day count. Love your life.
10. Surround yourself with winners. People who win for a living live a very different life to those that are happy with just going with the flow. If you want to make something of yourself you need to be surrounded by people who also want that - or already have it. Look around. Who are you spending your time with?
11. Drink your way to success! No not booze - water! Drink as much water as you can muster, mister. Eight glasses a day is a good guide. Why? Well, your brain is 75% water. Your blood is 90% water. The body will shut down within days without water. Water prevents illness and disease. Water turns the food you eat into energy. Need we say more? Drink up!
12. Eat smaller meals more often. If you eat trash you'll feel like trash. If you eat well, you'll feel well. It's not rocket science. But what you may not know is that having several smaller meals a day reduces your chances of being overweight or obese. Stop eating things that are killing you and start eating delicious and nutritious food. But you already know that one don't you? But do you do it?
13. Reduce your consumption of the four fatal stimulants. Coffee, cigarettes, alcohol and sugar are a perfect storm - for illness and disease! If you want to die a young and painful death then knock yourself out. Most people don't really want that - but it doesn't mean they don't consume dangerous things. You wouldn't give cigarettes, coffee, alcohol or loads of sugar to your pet, so why do you consume them? Do you have more respect for your pet than yourself? Weird.
14. Tense and relax. When you tense all the muscles in your body and then let it go it really helps the body to unwind and remain calm. So start using this whenever you're feeling anxious or stressed. Tense and relax. Tense and relax. Ah! Feels good doesn't it?
You have the power to make your life whatever you want it to be. But it truly is up to you. You must not allow others or circumstances to prevent you from doing whatever it is you want to do. Take massive action every day and kick some studying butt! Good luck.
