5 tips for staying motivated

3. Set attainable goals

if you’re having trouble writing a 25-page pAPER FOR CLASS BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE SUCH BIG JOB, DON’T FOCUS ON THAT FINAL NUMBER. BREAK THE PAPER DOWN AND CONSIDER EACH SECTION OF YOUR PAPER INDIVIDUALLY. YOU CAN HANDLE ANY PROJECT IN SMALL CHUNKS.

4. FIND A SOCIAL SUPPORT NETWORK

CREATE A GROUP OF PEOPLE AROUND YOU WHO WANT TO HELP YOU SUCCEED. MENTORS CAN BE TEACHERS OR FAMILY FRIENDS WHO CAN GIVE YOU GUIDANCE AND HELP YOU DEVELOP NEW SKILLS. COUNSELORS CAN HELP YOU WITH PLANNING YOUR COURSES AND STARTING TO EXPLORE COLLEGE. You can also reach out to friends and peers who can motivate you by listening and sharing ideas.

3.                Acknowledge your accomplishments

Give yourself a quick reward when you complete an assignment or task. Take a walk, send an email, get a snack. Then move on to the next project.
