How do Students keep themselves motivated throughout the whole day

How do Students keep themselves motivated throughout the whole day Why do we get so easily addicted to a video game Why do we get so easily addicted to social media likes Why can checking our email inbox be so gratifying "Distraction" and being "addicted" towards games, social media like youtube, instagram , facebook etc., both the things go along and today's generation taken it for granted. The above are examples of instant satisfaction with minimal effort, correct But whats the secret behind this satisfaction Is it the minimal effort involved Lets find the secret! To do so, lets first analyze another type of satisfaction, but now involving hard work:

• What happens when weve been on a tough diet and a friend comes to you and says, Wow Youve lost some weight! Motivation gets reinvigorated. Why
• What happens when weve scored an exemption or something in our exams and our fellow beings (including our friends and teachers) started considering us as an intelligent being This triggers enthusiasm to keep going. Why
• What happens when you have a big check list of things to do at work and find yourself on a roll checking off your to-do list That feels good and motivates you to keep going. Why

As we can see, whether with minimal effort or hard work, we get the same addictive boosts of motivation. Whats the common denominator Whats the secret motivator PROGRESS! Progress is addictive. Progress is one of the most powerful motivators we can access. To answer your question, how can we find a way to keep ourselves motivated throughout the day Find ways to see the progress of your work. Example : Use a calendar to track your daily work. Make it visual such as tracking the number of words you write, the number of pages or topics you studied, the problems you solved or that new concept you have learnt. Start Journaling : Write your ideas or youre to-do list on paper before you go to your class/ workplace/ study table. This helps you avoid distractions. All these sketches and writings keep growing as your notebooks get stacked up on your bookshelf. Another idea is print out your work daily and keep these pages in an ever-growing stack on your desk as proof of your progress. Whatever it is, define your goals, feel the progress and most importantly measure how you are approaching those goals. This will motivate you and keep you going! #NeverGiveUp
