Ways to keep your study environment organized

While we don’t often think about it, one of the best things you can do for your productivity is to keep a tidy study and work area. For example, you shouldn’t ever try to study on your bed, because you’re more likely to fall asleep and thus not get your studying done. Something I like to do is keep pens, pencils, highlighters, and other tools I need readily available on my desk, and only use my desk for studying.

This video shows important and helpful tips on how to tidy up a study area and get organized. Personally, I try to make sure that each semester I sell books that I don’t need, and put away papers I’m sure I won’t use again.
