Get back to studies

At first, I must say that the sole aim of writing this is to motivate myself for studies. Due to Corona pandemic, we have to leave the university and stay at home to do online learning which was not a familiar thing at the beginning. But due to the fear that I wouldn’t be able to manage things if I didn’t start early, I started online learning enthusiastically. In the midst of Corona, I faced two exams and they were quite good.

Later I dunno where my enthusiasm had gone and I got into a state where I cannot keep my head straight atleast a couple of minutes when there’s a book in front of me. There were couple of family functions at home and so I was busy with them. Although I had the chance of limiting them and do my stuff alone in my room, I always made excuses for myself to refrain from studying. The aftermath is the state that I am in right now.

Now, I feel like my brain is corroded and nothing is in my mind. I cannot even remember whether I learnt a lecture like this. I always made timetables but I was unable to execute them. I made several plans but my demotivation is so above all of them. To motivate myself I watched motivational videos and yet none of them motivated me. Finally I could tell what they are going to tell next in their videos. I had that much practice of watching them😪😅. But I must say, they gave good tips for studies🤓.

I don’t know whether I’m addicted to, but I spent many hours with social media sites like WhatsApp, FB, Instagram, etc than never before. So as the first step I set a screen timer for these always engaging apps. I restricted each app to 1 or 2 hours per day. This made me to not to scroll them unnecessarily as if they get stopped I cannot open them again for the whole day even for a necessary thing. Yes, I can, but I have to go through settings and do couple of cliques to extend the timer.

Then I wanted to make little changes in my room. Always changing little things in the room like repositioning table or atleast order of books on the table give me good feelings and so I went to a book shop with dad and bought file folders 🗃️ to place the files methodically. New things always give me fresh feelings. So this little thing is a fresh start for myself🤪.

I took half a day to remodel my room and the table. But this was not a waste of time at all. Then I spent another hour or two to make a new time table. At that moment I realized how much I have missed learning within this past couple of months. But thanks to Corona (Which I hate obviously) I got another month of time before the exam to ready my self for exam. I devide days of the week into modules depending on the number of credits each have by giving more time for the ones with more credits. I set out enough time (6 hours) for sleeping because it is very important to boost the memory. Also, I kept little intervals without assigning any task to do whatever the thing I want to. At that time I can either relax myself or catch my missed lessons or do any other thing.

It was so difficult for me to follow the timetable consistently in the first couple of days. At such times, I started to think of the day when my results are given. That very thinking motivated me to get back to lessons. Also I studied myself like which hours of the day my brain work slower by giving a bored 🥱 feeling to me. At such times, I entered “doing questions" to my time table .

Finally I thought of writing this and publishing cause I felt like I have exposed my planning to atleast one person who reads this and so I must work as I said to not to feel my self guilt of telling you a lie. If I didn’t work according to the aforementioned way, I have said you a lie. So to not to become a liar, I must work and that is the very reason I said you that the sole aim of writing this is to motivate myself for studies.

So, Good luck with your studies and so with mine✌️♥️
