What are some perfect study tips?

How can I get more motivated to study? What are some efficient studying tips?

• Next year is my senior year and I have absolutely no motivation to study. How can I get started? Also, this sounds ridiculous, but I'm not sure I really know how to study properly. What are some good tips? Thanks, this would be really useful!

• Answer:

  I think the best thing you can do when you study is to have a routine that you always stick to and never stray from. Find a study system that works for you like reading everything out loud to yourself or outlining the chapter and stick with it no matter what. Also so you don't get bored too fast while you study (and I know this sounds dumb) get a squishy or a stress ball to play with in your hands while you labor over your books (this helps me be able to study for about twice as long as I would normally). As for getting motivated what works for me is to play a specific playlist of songs softly in the background which helps me get a certain mentality. I don't know if any of this will work for you but I hope it helps!
