Bored in school?
Sometimes those lectures drag on and on, don’t they?
You wonder if you’ll fall asleep or lose your mind before your teacher stops talking.
Teaching is hard. Sometimes, listening is just as brutal.
So, here’s a list of things to do when you’re bored in a class lecture.
Most of them will allow you to do something you enjoy without anyone knowing what you’re up to.
There’s a time to be disruptive, but these tips are about helping you get through a boring class period without being rude.
Being a student can be overwhelming.
That’s why we want to offer some motivational quotes for students to support you through the journey of education.
You’re trying to juggle work, exams, homework, making it to class on time, and having a social life.
When you’re so busy, with so many demands on your time and energy, it’s hard to step back and assess everything that’s going on.
Only when you finally hit the wall with stress or exhaustion do you realize you may be burning the candle at both ends, making you wonder if it’s all worth the effort.
Where do you find the motivation and ambition to keep going when you feel burned out?
Sometimes you can be inspired by fellow students, a teacher or professor, or even your parents.
Having a goal for your future can give you a reason for working hard and being disciplined with your schoolwork.
But in the quiet of late night when you’re alone with your thoughts and feelings, it’s nice to have some words of wisdom to turn to when you’re uninspired, unmotivated, or overwhelmed.
The right inspirational words at the right time can give you the boost you need to galvanize your energy and charge forward.
Here are some motivational studying quotes that you can keep handy for those times when you need a mental or emotional boost.
Do you ever wonder why you procrastinate?
Well, stop wondering because it doesn’t matter.
Analyzing why we procrastinate is just another way of procrastinating.
For those of us inclined toward studying the “whys” of human behavior, this is one area where the why just gets in the way of the how.
I could list 100 reasons why we procrastinate, and they might be simply fascinating to study and dissect. But if we really want to stop procrastinating, we need to explore how to stop it rather than why we do it.
You’ve had those days at work.
The boss is droning on in a meeting, and you’re struggling to stay conscious.
Your eyes are at half mast, and it takes all your willpower to keep your head from falling on the table.
You’ve stifled so many yawns that your jaws are on fire, and you long to get back to your desk and crawl under it with a pillow and blanket for the rest of the day.
If you’ve been reading my site for a while, you probably know I work from home.
My entire business is online, and I run it from the comfort of one of the bedrooms now turned office.
I often work in pajamas and can get up to grab a meal or coffee without getting in the car. I can take a walk in the middle of the day, or go to lunch with a friend.
There are weights and a rebounder in my office, so I take breaks to exercise whenever I want.
Beyond the freedom of working from home, my job as a coach, blogger, teacher, and author is extremely rewarding and satisfying.
Do you ever have those days when you just have no motivation? If feels like someone has pulled the plug, and all of the air has gone out of your balloon.
This is the way I feel today. I was out late at a friend’s birthday party last night, and now I’m suffering the consequences of my good time. Everything has been a mental and physical struggle today.
Often this motivation drain happens when you aren’t feeling great physically. You just don’t have the energy to work or exercise or do whatever it is you’re supposed to be doing.
My philosophy on productivity is this . . .
It’s not about how much you can get done in a day. It’s about how you can become more engaged in what you are doing.
When I’m more focused on simply getting things done, I find myself feeling overwhelmed, scattered, and exhausted. And no matter how many things I’m able to cross off my to-do list, more to-do’s keep cropping up like bunnies. So I’m never released from the anxiety of unfinished business.
