Arrange to study with someone or
with a group.
However, whether studying by
yourself or in a group do not let yourself be distracted.
Set a timer for forty
or fifty minutes and do that reading or writing. When time’s up reward yourself
with a cuppa or a walk. Then do another forty or fifty minutes. You’ll be surprised how much you achieve if
you just take your time and pace things.
Remember to have a bigger reward
planned for when you have finished a block of study. For ideas on treats and
rewards see Celebrate
The Irish Heart Foundation’s ‘Manage
Your Stress’ Booklet, which is available in the Wellness Centre also has great
advice on giving yourself treats:
‘Whenever you are faced with a difficult
challenge, plan to give yourself a treat afterwards. The possibilities are
endless – a meal with a friend, a new item of clothing, a book, a relaxing bath
or listening to music. Having something to look forward to will help you cope
much better’ www.irishheart.ie
