Bargain with yourself
An hour of intense study
● Set a 25 minute timer● Have a 5 minute break● Set another 25 or 30 minute
timer● Allow yourself a strictly
enforced 20 minutes of entertainment
● Then back to another hour of study
Decide if a gradual change or cold turkey suits you best
● Work out what suits your personality● If in doubt, try both
Would you work better in a libraryOr even a coffee shop?
● Be disciplined about not having any entertainment with you● If you find some, don’t turn it on
Think ahead to the responsibilities of your profession
You don’t want to lack confidence in your working life because of knowledge gaps
Spend a little time learning memory techniques (search ‘memory palace’)
● Study will be more fun
● And more effective
Can you substitute your form of entertainment for music?
● It’s mildly entertaining● Headphones might help you tune out distractions
Happy studying!
