Staying Motivated: Overcoming the Late Fall Doldrums
As a university student, November can be a challenging month. You might have just completed your midterms, or perhaps you're still in the middle of them. It often feels like there's a long stretch to go before December's Christmas break, and even longer before graduation. Here are some effective tips to stay motivated during this tough time.
Reflect on Your Goals
Remember why you're in school. Consider the career opportunities your degree will open up. Think about the financial and personal investment you've made?"whether it's through savings or student loans?"and strive to make it worthwhile by achieving the best grades you can.
Pursue Your Passions
Not everyone is passionate about their current program. If you find yourself dreading your coursework, it might be worth exploring a change. Love your philosophy class more than chemistry? Perhaps a switch is in order. Following your interests can keep you motivated. If your goal is a chemistry degree, consider adding a philosophy course each semester to balance your interests.
Learn from Experience
Make a list of what you would do differently in your course selection. Avoid classes that don't resonate with you next time you register. If early mornings aren't your forte, steer clear of 8:00 a.m. classes. This reflection will help you optimize future schedules and avoid current pitfalls.
Change Up Your Routine
Feeling bogged down by repetitive tasks? Break the monotony by alternating between different assignments or activities. Tackle a paper for your French class if you're tired of reading Shakespeare, or switch from lab reports to textbook chapters. Even mixing in non-academic tasks like watering plants or doing laundry can give your mind a break.
Prioritize Self-Care
It's essential to take care of yourself. Regular exercise and a healthy diet can boost your energy levels, helping you feel more prepared to tackle schoolwork.
Reward Yourself
While grades are important, they can feel abstract. Create a reward system by pairing tasks with small incentives. For instance, after finishing a chapter of your astronomy text, treat yourself to a cup of tea. Set reasonable rewards and give yourself a larger reward after a productive day?"like watching an episode of your favorite show.
By staying focused on your goals and taking time for yourself, you can overcome the late fall doldrums and stay motivated throughout the term.
