With the Winter semester wrapping up, those of you at school or university are bound to be busy studying hard for your exams, your noses to the grindstone.

We really love how Linoflirts structured all of her tips. They’re easy to read and to follow. And 6k people seem to agree with us because they gave her thread a big old like on Twitter.
Objectively, one of the best pieces of advice that anyone can give (and that you’ll find sprinkled high and low, left and right on the net) is studying a bit every day. The same goes for any other area of life: daily results will add up much faster than random bursts of activity when your butt is on fire.
Everyone has different rituals when it comes to studying, but I’ll let you in on a little secret about what helped me when I used to be a student. For me, the name of the game is laser-like focus and academic fun.
I either put on some incredibly energetic music to amp myself up or play some atmospheric tunes (with some rain in the background) to help me concentrate. I find that the same tracks help me focus if I’ve studied to them before. And I don’t punish myself if I slip up by checking social media or getting up to check the fridge for something tasty. When there’s no guilt, you’re less likely to stray from the path, in my experience.
Unlike Linoflirts, chocolate works wonders for me whenever I have to pull an all-nighter. But at the end of the day, it’s all about perspective. If you think that you’re being forced to study, you’re bound to kill off any motivation and you’ll end up procrastinating till the sun comes up.
On the other hand, whenever I switched my thought track from ‘Ugh’ to ‘I’m doing this for me,’ learning became enjoyable. Learning something new and unraveling the mysteries of this world is something that’s valuable in and of itself. When you think of yourself as an academic adventurer or a scientific pioneer who’s searching for the truth, grades start to matter less and that’s when real growth happens.
