"Get used to doing a little bit of work every day: reading,writing a paragraph, taking new material over with others. This may seem impossible at first, but working consistently in this way ensures that you make the most of your time and produce really good work"
Some mountains is just a thing to be tackled sensibly one step at a time.
Do not rely on feeling like studying or finding time.
When should I study?
whether you are a morning, afternoon or evening person.
how much time you spend traveling
how much time you would like to give your family and friends
how much time you have to give to chores
how much time you have to give to work
whether yo will be able to keep all your hobbies and interests
tie for rest and relaxation
timetables: [24/7] non-study and study time. which to study and how long. trial and errors are needed. [assignment] record all the ddl. put it everywhere. [exam] record the exam time/place and what to be tested. [revision] what they worked out.
make lists and priorities tasks
keep a diary.
Overwhelming and five-step plan
1, List everything that you need to do.
2, Divide each big task that you have to do into small steps.
3, Organize your big list into things that must be done now; soon; later
4, Do one of the NOW tasks immediately and cross it off.
5, Priorities your list and put into a 'to do' order.
Procrastination
No right and wrong, but what works for you.
How to study
want it: know what you want from it and what would be changed when you reach your goal
get the overview: know what is happening week by week. Know how the course will be assessed.
Epistemology:know what why and how of all your subjects
timing: priorities your tasks and set your study timetable in motion. Long study session work for some ppl but NOT all. one study myth is that this is what we must do.
prioritise time: be strategic
use the time: time sponge. learn to take down one thing at a time and give it all our concentration
be active
review actively
study partners and groups
relaxation and dealing with stress
