Welcome back everyone, this is the final week of the blog and we are going to cover some tips and tools for maintaining motivation whether it be during the semester or when you’re studying and working on assignments. One of the biggest takeaways I had from this week was the importance of eliminating distractions and clearing your work environment before working. One thing you can do is to try having a space to work in that is separate from your normal area of leisure, this can help your mind be ready to focus on your work and help you be not as easily distracted. If you’re like me and you find yourself often pulling up different websites while working on your computer there is a great resource that was introduced in the lesson this week that will block access to other sites while you are working, I will leave a link to it below. Another practice that can help you stay focused for long work sessions is the “pomodoro technique” of working for 25 minutes followed by a 5 minute break, there is another website linked below that is a very easy way to keep track of your time using this technique. Using a combination of these sites and having a clean environment clear of outside distractions, you can maximize your work flow and stay focused on completing your tasks to the best of your ability. That’s all for this week, thank you all for reading.
