Guest meibum Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Considering I left a 5 week project until 2am the night before and still got a 90% I'm probably not the best to ask about this buuuuut I would suggest eliminating your biggest distraction (most likely the internet and social media) and then just sit down and focus on your homework until you're done and then reward yourself with your computer/phone etc back (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few lines of terminal commands should do it Forcibly block off the sites you frequent Unless you're that bad at concentrating and go and remove those locks in the middle or something which is totally not worth the trouble Edited September 26, 2013 by Ezio Auditore da Firenze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasigat Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Get someone to kick your ass if you're beeing lazy, like your mother who will constantly nag at you and then after a while you'll feel guilty and then do it eventually. Although with this method you will probably get things done it isn't as rewarding and you learn nothing from it.Teach yourself that you aren't doing your homework or learn for somebody else, you do it for yourself. It isn't your mom or your teacher who gets bad grades and is constantly stressed because of too much work in too little time, it is you. If you manage to memorize this and make it the basis for your leaning things will get easier because you will be satisfied with yourself. You will have setbacks when you will get super lazy, but generally this might work.And try to enjoy yourself with what you do, curiosity helps a lot in this regard. Try to be interrested in what you have to do and try to find connections to your life and why it is valuable to learn certain things. Because if you are willing to learn, things will get easier. Hope this helps ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Odinson Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 It's nice because it takes effort to take out the blocks so you might as well just do work instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maji Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I'm a double History/Education major, so I can help with essay advice! If you get a huge assignment at the start of the semester, do 100 words a week, even if you're not 100% sure if it's right or not, because chances are it's probably more right than what BS you're going to shit out in the last three days of cramming it all in. If you have a small assignment, just fucking do it, it takes me two hours to BS a four page paper, and even less to get someone to look at professionally it the day before it's due.

Sifer Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Can't help you with this topic, still learning. although I am looking at something called a schedule, looks promising but I am doubtful it will work for me, I will just push assignments forward one day at a time...

Knight Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 (edited) It's possible, the only way is to stop your Internet connection. Edited September 27, 2013 by Knight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwall Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 There are Chromium and Firefox plugins that prevent you from wasting your time on the Internet. More to the point, procrastinating on busy work is good, in my opinion, since it frees up your time to either work on serious assignments (not just schoolwork) or go have fun. More serious assignments that involve a lot of thinking should be the ones that receive your attention, and those you should certainly keep up with.
