the progress of my study habits.

Over the days, I've started studying with a little more focus than how I studied weeks ago. By tracking what things do I do every single day, I found out that I have a free time during eight to nine in the evening.

Here's what I do. I explain to myself the lesson I have to do study. I do this out loud. It is better out loud. Don't worry if you may sound like someone who is trying to do a class lecture. People around you may be bothered but don't care about them. This is about you and your journey to getting that amazing grade.

let’s form study habits together!

I know it may sound crazy. Or even a hopeless attempt but I want to undertake this habit change. This is the first habit I want to change.

Every night from now on, I’ll be studying twenty minutes before sleeping. By the use of the word studying, I meant reading advanced lectures and understanding them and also, skimming over old notes.

This could work for you too. Maybe night isn’t a good time to you or twenty minutes is short. Feel free to change it. If you wake up early and have tons of free time, you could study in the morning instead. The main idea here is you skim over your notes or you read stuff in your textbook every day.

If you live far away from school, you could study over the commute. Or if you eat fast, you could study during the remaining time in lunch. By doing this, you could risking the chance of destroying some parts of your social life. It doesn’t matter. Your social life could wait. Learning couldn’t. And most certainly, your grades couldn’t.

Let’s do this together. I’m starting tonight. Maybe you could start tonight too. Keep doing this. Make this a habit. It usually takes 30 days to form a habit. Sometime along the way, you get so discouraged. This is usually the end of the first week of the habit change. It is usual and to you, it seems almost impossible to beat it but in fact, it is beatable if you just motivate yourself enough.
