When it comes to motivating yourself, I think Slide 4 made a really good point of reminding you to apply what you learn to the outside world. It gives the information importance and reminds you it has other purposes than just getting an A in a class. Taking classes for you want to study would most likely mean you’re motivated to get good marks in those classes considering you need to understand the concepts in order to excel in your study and succeed in your potential future career. So it makes sense to connect what you learn to how you could use it in your everyday lives.
It’s also important to check in with yourself and remember that motivation comes from your mental health. Slide 21 does an excellent job of explaining why it’s necessary to protect your well being. Motivation usually comes from stability; the more unhappy you are, or hopeless you feel, the less motivation you find in completing everyday tasks. Even something as simple as showering can sound like the most tiresome chore when you feel hopeless. Let alone completing the assignments you have waiting for you when your depressive state is over with. Focusing on making yourself happy, or at least stable, can play a huge role in your future and success.
