Head to the library, your room, or wherever else it is you get work done and just do it. On the first day you will have such little work to do that it will seem too insignificant to start right away. However, this helps set up the rest of the semester for you. If you can get in the habit of this\u00a0<em>before<\/em> the work load gets daunting then procrastination will no longer be an issue. Sit down after your classes and finish all your work (or make a plan on how to finish it) before you relax. Simple as that. Do that and cramming will no longer be your life. If you think that\u2019s too overwhelming, try challenging yourself to do that for 30 days. After the 30 days it will become a habit!<\/p>\n<p>But maybe you\u2019re of the opinion that procrastination is fine and that you do pretty well regardless. That\u2019s fine. But think of how much easier studying would be if you didn\u2019t procrastinate. By the end of week one you would have all of week one\u2019s material down pat. You would have the opportunity to quickly review in the coming weeks instead of still struggling to learn it all. Then come the weekend before the test you will simply be reinforcing what you already know instead of struggling to have complete knowledge of what you\u2019ll be tested on.<\/p>\n<p>Boom. That A is easily within reach.<\/p>\n<p>The culture behind procrastination unfortunately only ends up feeding the habit. The idea that procrastination is just a thing that everyone does and jokes around about is the worst part. Well, it\u2019s time to take it seriously! There actually is no secret to doing well in school! You already know what you need to do. So start doing it!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>this is still one of my favourite posts on here<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>accidentally reblogged to my main lmao<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As somebody with executive dysfunction issues this is the only that works for me.
