I make every to-dos with honest hope of sticking to it whatever may come. In spite of it I falter regularly. I can’t pull my concentration together for studies on all times,even in desperate times. Why?
My personal awareness’s were as follows:
- PSYCHOLOGICAL CHANGES -worries,plain hesitancy, dampened persistence, bullied/negative criticisms, overwhelmed feeling.
- PHYSICAL CHANGES -anxious nerves, tensed muscles.
- METABOLIC CHANGES -abnormal glucose from inadequate food or junk food, constipation[apologies.. but yeah], excess sleep from sweets & sweet drinks.
- HORMONAL CHANGES -[female thing .... well apologies again...3 days before till completion]
- ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES -uncomfortable seating,accessibility,clothes, extremes of weather-heat,sultry,cold, unsuitable atmosphere-noisy,dreary colors or texture,too much of light,clutter.
HOW TO FIX THEM:
For psychological issues -
- Keep your goals above what bugs you & time will tell “YOU COPED WELL”.
- Protect your self-esteem by never revealing your identity goals prematurely – esp those with a short deadline or when investing huge commitments.
- make a slow easier transition before shivering escape routes to decrease initiation hesitancy & increase persistence in the long run.
- search for new motivations – keep your self talk positive to encourage yourself to be part of the solution, dispute warp thoughts, decide the next action.
- vent out the turbulent thoughts by journalling & try shelving it forever with a permanent fix, forget myself by reading something random, pepping amusing memories or music.
- warm up concentration first on easy interesting subject/by photo reading the topic before the actual study, never read passively but annotate, simplify, paraphrase, illustrate, connect points without leaving anything floating, concise into keyword box.
For physical issues -
- practice heart coherence or breathing to calm down,
- revise your concise notes many times till you’re able to contrast concepts & get into flow.
For metabolic changes -
- keep a daily desk stock of fruit/nuts/curd/boiled sweet potato…,
- active playful ways of doing everything helps.
For hormonal changes -
- get done some long pending work [blogging, haircut, cleaning, rearrange] to get off the fateful stuck feeling,
- strenghten the goals [making a collage or browsing on your doubts] to not get lost.
Environmental hiccups –
- logical selection of clothes.
- declutter to create a comfortable dwelling.
- study at a new place away from usual boring routine.
