How to motivate myself to study?

I have the same problem. How about making a big list of reasons to study? (e.g. get into good university, be proud of results when people ask, prove certain teachers wrong maybe, beat any rivals you have...anything really) Pin it up on your wall (or maybe by your computer as that's one of the best distractions, I've discovered ) and read it when you're feeling unmotivated.
Make 'to-do' lists with boxes to check off when you've done a certain topic, for example.
Promise yourself a reward when you've done a certain amount.
Since you already know that early preparation is key to good grades, then that should be part of your motivation to study. I think what helps is thinking of the positive results that come from studying hard. For example, you should tell yourself that if you study hard now you have far less chance of panicking and worrying yourself to death later, when it's closer to exam time. Thus because you prepared in advance things won't seem so daunting, and you can brush up on parts of your subjects that you're weaker in as opposed to frantically trying to cram everything in haphazardly.
If you have any sort of future goal/ambition you could use that too as something to motivate yourself. Tell yourself that working hard and hopefully getting good grades will get you closer to whatever your goal is.
Personally it's starting working that I find hard, once you are into revising it's ok, but it's always difficult getting yourself to take the first step. I always tell myself that once I start, the amount of revision I have grows less and less, and the sooner I start the sooner I can finish.
I hope this helped, and good luck for your revision!
Everytime you slack off, put a fork in the socket.
Either you work-rate will increase massively, or you'll be dead. Either way, you won't have to worry about being lazy.
I used to suffer a bit from procrastination with regards to my own work -- but I think that changed when I entered sixth form college. I agree with many of the other comments made, that starting early and organising yourself are definitely key to doing well.
Not since my weekly French spelling tests (which i revised for rigourously (sic?)) in my pre GCSE years (that is, secondary yrs 7-9), have i truly applied myself when it comes to revision. I fared rather well at GCSE, on little revision, i did so very little at a-level and did quite a bit worse, grades-wise. I worked hard in my first year at university, had many essay deadlines in politics and my own subject, and fared extremely well. Then, due to going 'single' subject, i had very few hours each week in my subject, had very little work to hand in, not only non-assessment work, but assessed work itself. Generally, when i have deadlines rapidly approaching, i tend to pull my finger out, and work fairly hard. Pressure is a good, healthy thing, and when there is none, or none that is approaching in the not-so-distant future, this is the greatest danger when it comes to revising and getting good grades, et cetera...
i guess you could self deceive yourself, set 'fake' deadlines, i.e. that piece of work, although in, in two weeks time, is in this time NEXT WEEK....
OK that's crap
dude, coast it then cram, coast it then cram, coast it and cram.
How do i motivate myself to study?
Remembering how awful I felt when I saw the disappointment on family members faces when I pulled out several particularly substandard AS grades. Imagining how I'll feel if I do that again, and how I'll ruin my chances of succeeding in life if I don't.
Usual sort of thing.
Offline2ReputationRep:Pressure is a good, healthy thing...
Back to the question, I think you just need to ask yourself why you want these grades and what they will mean to you. I'm a fairly self-motivated person and the thing, for me, that made me start working at school was work experience. It dawned on me that you only get one shot at these grades and then you live with them for the rest of your life, and I hated the placement I had so much I wanted to work hard to ensure I did well so that I could have more options with what I wanted to do (ie. not end up hating my job like them).
Your main motivator should be where you want to go in life. Do you want to get into a good uni and get a good job? Those things don't just happen- you have to want them enough to work hard for them. Do you want to feel really happy and proud of yourself on results day when you see how all your hard work has paid off, and do you want your friends, family and teachers to be proud of you as well? Results day is fantastic when you do well, but extremely depressing when you don't! Would you rather sacrifice the social life a bit now, work hard and get grades that will set you up for life, or would you rather waste this opportunity, end up in a dead end job and regret it for the rest of your life? Those are the sorts of questions you should be asking yourself. Also, make sure you have a good balance between studying and relaxing. Make a list of everything you want to do and tick each task off as you complete it so you can see what progress you're making. Come up with little rewards for yourself after each task. Starting is always the hardest part, but after that it should get easier.
I usually tell myself "Well if you don't get what you want then you're stuffed and you'll hate yourself, and you only get one chance at this."
Oh and near constant self-beration. That too.
The constant threat of tests at school should keep you motivated - especially the teachers who spring surprise tests on you. However, that's probably something out of your control - determining whenever you have tests in class or not, and I doubt you'd be very popular if you as your teachers to set more tests for you (but it damn well helps).
Just think, what the **** else would I be doing with my time? All I've got to do everyday is get up, go to school, listen in lessons, then come back home. I'm not putting anyone's life at risk, having to make hard decisions, or even having to work long hours at high steaks. ****, getting EMA means I'm even paid to do this. Since I'm living such an easy life, I may as well make it even easier by keeping fairly on top of the work so this nice easy life doesn't become stressed. Plus, when I'm sitting there watching Futurama/Pron I sometimes think learning about something that is actually quite interesting is probably a better way to spend my life then watching cartoons. (Watching Pron is time well spent though)
That mentality is immediately overwritten by the inbuilt distrust of work that looks remotely interesting, as the comprehensive school code incrusted on my brain immediately dictates that all school work is bad, and if I like it I'm a geek.
Sometimes I also think '20% of kids get an A in this subject' that means it's ****ing easy. If I don't get an A I will not only be doing myself a disservice by messing up something that was easy, but will forever be in the swamp of mediocrity. Mediocre people always say 10 years after getting their grades 'I got a B' then follow it up immediately with 'but I was 2 marks off an A'. It doesn't matter how close you were, you never made it. And on every academic form you will always have to write B. To avoid being a 'but I was one mark off...' person, just apply yourself for 2 hours and do something well, and then go back to relaxing.
I'm not saying getting a B is immediately dump, I'm saying if you're capable of getting an A but get a B through laziness; it's just a disservice to yourself
Same applies if your only capable of a C. If that's your ceiling and you reach it then no-body can question you, but if you got a D through laziness the your just a ****ing moron.
This type of crap might not bother you if it's a GCSE, but say you get a 2.2 instead of a 2.i at degree level, simply through laziness. This happened to my brother's mate. He can't sleep at night become it niggles at him. He's got this cloud in the back of his head constantly saying you really messed up, and it will be with him for the rest of his life. He had a chance to make his whole life nice by getting a 2.i, but got a 2.2 so can hardly get a job, all through laziness.
I say all this, but it's easy to pontificate ideals of efficiency whilst procrastinating on TSR. I know I'm going to leave everything till 3 weeks before the exam and just CRAM. I've made some serious efforts to stop this in the past, but it's just too easy to put things off. It's the only time when I just defy logic and consciously do things even though I know they're harming me.
I've got exactly this problem. I've realised why: I have an aversion to hard work. I positively love the idea of sitting long hours getting caught up in studying and intellectual activity, but I really never get around to doing it. I like the idea of being a hard worker, but cannot become one. I'm simply too lazy and procrastinate too much to start work. Sometimes, I think being able to get away with not working is a bit of a curse - nobody at school would guess I've got such a problem, the teachers least of all. I'm working at solving it though... now that I know what causes it!
- just my 2p,
- me.
About 3 months ago I found my motivation, now all I do is work.
I'm on the extreme side and have literally stopped being socially active (luckily most of my friends left the country already), but besides the point.
What you need to do is find something that you want. Something you desire? Or you need to really focus on what you want to study.
For example, there are only two things I care about now. Getting into a good university for my psychology degree and being able to buy myself a motorbike. I figure that if I do well on my exams, getting a motorbike will bbe easier as I am more likely to be able to get a good job. It's all linked!
And it's only a few more months of work before it's all over!
^ Whoa, well done! I was sort of like that last week. On Sunday night and Monday morning I worked so much, but after that...hardly stretched a finger. Today I did about 4 pages all day, and I have got a LOT of work to do to finish my two assignments to the best of my ability and my deadline is the 18th . I'm really behind and need to start work work work, but can't!!!

Once you get into the work, the music will fade and you will lose track of time until you are done.
There is also some good rock that creates deep thought and work motivation. Opeth have some good acoustic tunes.

I get a bit obsessive about this, but I find making lists of things you want to do and things you have to do (well ... have to do if you wanna do OK) really helpful (especially if you do it the day [or even week!] before).
This kinda thing:
9-11 Psych notes
11-11:30 Watch mindless TV
11-30-12 Psych notes
12-1 Lunch
1-4 Go shopping
4-5:30 Politics past paper
You get the idea.
12-1: Lunch
1-11 IB Work and CAS.

One trick I found is music. There are certain songs and tunes that suddenly make me feel like I should work. You should perhaps find songs that can do that. I listen to a lot of trance so it's different but I am sure you can find some songs that motivate you.

"It's kind of shocking. It was for us. We all came together the last seven days all three departments," says Coffee County Sheriff Jerry Pope.
The three departments â" the Douglas Police Department, the Coffee County Sheriff's Office and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation â" collaborated on recent arrests made in the murder cases.
They arrested Shieme Kewan Brockington, 18, and Keigan Antonio Jones, 17, in connection with the shooting death of Natosha Stiles, 20, and Angela Ortega, 24.
The GBI says warrants against Brockington included two counts of malice murder, two counts of kidnapping, one count of arson first degree and one count of motor vehicle hijacking; he was taken into custody on a probation warrant on Feb. 17. Jones was also arrested on this date and is charged with one count of theft by receiving stolen property and one count of arson.
On Feb. 11 at 3:30 p.m., GBI says Stiles and Ortega's bodies were found discarded at a pond on Rexford Batten Road. At 5:30 that morning Douglas police responded to a vehicle fire at East Bryan Circle; the vehicle belonged to Ortega. Ortega and Stiles had been missing since the prior evening, according to GBI.
The Douglas Police Department announced on Tuesday that Jacob Cornett, Brandon Cole Williams and Michael Berrian are in jail for the shooting death of Marcus Collins, 38. DPD says specific charges for each individual will be released at a later time.
The three law enforcement agencies say with all of the leads they had, collaboration wasn't an option: It was necessary.
"All three agencies working basically 24 hours a day there's approximately 20 to 25 investigators from all three agencies assigned to these murders," says DPD Chief Gary Casteloes.
GBI says the three agencies worked out of a common area, sharing information and teaming up with investigators for interviews.
"You had the second murder within days of the double homicide: It will overwhelm one department. Our office couldn't handle it alone, I don't think the Sheriff's Office could handle it alone, the Douglas Police Department couldn't handle it alone because you're just overwhelmed," says Mansfield, GBI Special Agent in Charge.
The law enforcement agencies say more arrests could come in connection with both murder cases.
Anyone with information on these cases are urged to call the Douglas Police Department Tips Line at (912) 260-3600.

A Theology of Christian CounselingA Theology of Christian Counseling connects biblical doctrine with practical living. Salvation, that central concern of Protestant theology, is often too narrowly defined. It is thought of as "being saved from the consequences of sin." But God is doing much more. He is making something new out of the old sinful nature. He is, in Christ, making new creatures. "No counseling system that is based on

Live blog - WPIAL semifinals: Char Valley wins; Hampton leading; No. 1 girls seed loses; Baldwin wins
By Mike White | Tuesday, March 2, 2010
T.J. McConnell finishes with 32.
9:12 p.m. - Hampton leads West Mifflin, 27-21, early in the fourth.
9:09 p.m. - End of the third quarter and Char Valley leads, 57-44.
9:06 p.m. - West Allegheny is hanging tough. Trail only 55-44 late in third.
9:02 p.m. - Hampton leading West Mifflin, 20-6. Not sure at what point of game. This from MSA and Don Rebel.
9:00 p.m. - Tom Droney has 15 in the first half to help Sewickley Academy to a 35-21 lead against Cornell in a Class A semifinal.
8:55 p.m. - CV's Matt Noszka starting second half with bandage on knee and hit a 3-pointer. Guess he's not too bad.
8:49 p.m. - Halftime Char Valley leads West Allegheny, 47-31. Can't see West Allegheny coming back from this. T.J. McConnell has 21 at halftime and Matt Noszka 13. But possibly a big development for Char Valley. Noszka, the team's second-leading scorer for the season, was on the bench at the end of the half and it looks like he has an injured knee. The trainer was working on him.
8:41 p.m. - This one, I hate to say, is over. Chartiers Valley leads, 43-21, second quarter. West Allegheny can't handle CV's pressure. A number of turnovers. T.J. McConnell has 19.
8:30 p.m. - End of the first quarter and Chartiers Valley boys lead, 19-10, over West Allegheny. Things started good for West A. leading 10-6. But CV scored final 13 points of quarter. T.J. McConnell had nine points for CV in the first quarter.
Baldwin defeated Bethel Park, 63-49, behind 34 from Belma Nurkic
Jeannette girls beat Beaver, 48-39.
Lincoln Park boys defeated Serra, 54-48.
7:50 p.m. - One family member is in the finals. Molly Tuite is a senior guard for the Seton-LaSalle girls. Her cousin is Chartiers Valley senior guard T.J. McConnell, who plays next in a Class AAA semifinal against West Allegheny.
7:42 p.m. - Quigley girls trail Vincentian, 55-51, in the fourth quarter.
7:38 p.m. - See, WPIAL basketball playoffs and T.J. McConnell bring out important people. I just asked Greg Rosatelli why Paul Posluszny was here. He wanted to maybe see some of Char Valley's game (8 p.m.). G Ross. said Posluszny's brother lives in the Wexford area and sometimes works out in Wexford in the offseason.
7:36 p.m. - How about this one? Buffalo Bills linebacker and former Penn State stud Paul Posluszny is in the house at North Allegheny for the Char Valley-West Allegheny game. Was sitting with former Hopewell standout guard Greg Rosatelli, who helped the Vikings to a WPIAL championship game not all that long ago.
7:30 p.m. - Lincoln Park and Serra are tied, 35-35, after three quarters. Rob Heatherington has 15 points for Serra and Chaquille Pratt 13 for Lincoln Park. .. In Class AAAA, Baldwin leads Bethel Park, 45-39, early in the fourth quarter, as Belma Nurkic has 27 for Baldwin.
No. 1 Class AA seed Avonworth trails Seton-LaSalle, 30-17, with five minutes left.
7:17 p.m. - I'm sure Avonworth is having a bad night, but geez is it hard to believe Avonworth is the No. 1 seed for Class AA girls. Four minutes to go in the third quarter and they still haven't cracked double figures. Of course, when you're top scorer (Tara Gallupe) has yet to score a point, what do you expect? Tough night for Gallupe and the Antelopes. Obviously, they are a lot better than this.
7:12 p.m. - Update from Class A semifinals. Colleague Reggie Sanserino says Lincoln Park leads Serra, 21-20, at the half.
7:08 p.m. - From the Did You Know Department? Seton-LaSalle football coach Greg Perry is an assistant coach with the girls' basketball team. I think he probably teaches the pass pretty well.
7:02 p.m. - Avonworth, No. 1 seed in Class AA, trails Seton-LaSalle girls, 22-9, at halftime. Tara Gallupe, who averages over 20 a game, scoreless in the first half. Seton-LaSalle's Katie Gattuso has nine points, five rebounds and two blocks.
UPDATE CLASS AAAA GIRLS SEMIFINALS: Bethel Park and Baldwin are tied, 22-22, at the half. Baldwin's Belma Nurkic has been almost a one-girl show. She has 17 points in the first half.
6:57 p.m. - Here courtside next to MSA Sports director Don Rebel, the fine play-by-play and do-everything man for MSA. Rebel and his crew have every WPIAL game either on the radio or internet. It's a great thing the WPIAL has in MSA.
6:46 p.m. - From colleague Big Brad Everett, the Baldwin girls and Bethel Park are tied, 11-11, after the first quarter. Baldwin's Belma Nurkic (Duquesne recruit) has nine of the 11 points.
6:30 p.m. - Here at North Allegheny in the first game of a WPIAL semifinal doubleheader. Girls' game first. Seton-LaSalle vs. Avonworth.
Look who's in the house? Pitt assistant football coach Greg Gattuso. He's here to watch his daughter, Seton-LaSalle's senior center. Katie Gattuso is headed to Niagara.
Good matchup with Gattuso and Avonworth's Tara Gallupe, the second-leading scorer in the WPIAL this season.
That's Gattuso's wife, Colleen, sitting next to him. I think Greg is asking, "Did you know I averaged over 20 points a game when I was a senior at Seton-LaSalle?"
It's true. The big guy had some basketball talent to go along with his football talent (played at Penn State).

The process of selling Cameron's centrifugal compression division is "moving forward," said Charles Sledge, senior vice president and chief financial officer of the Houston-based company. Sledge briefly commented on the topic in a Thursday conference call with analysts. Cameron has previously said it wants to sell the division by year's end.
Meanwhile, the Erie County Industrial Development Agency has scheduled a public hearing for Wednesday July 30 in Cheektowaga Town Hall about Cameron's planned investment. The ECIDA will consider sales tax breaks for the project, which is not expected to add new jobs.
Cameron earlier this year cut hourly and salaried jobs in the face of a slowdown in production. The company designs and makes air and gas compressors for applications including industrial plants around the world.
In its application to the ECIDA, Cameron said its investment will unfold in two phases. The first phase will make it possible for the plant to operate two existing test stands for its products at the same time. The work includes expanding a substation and providing infrastructure for future expansion. Cameron says that phase was already approved for $2.6 million in capital expenditures and is in the design stage.
The second phase involves upgrading one of the test stands and adding a cooling tower. That phase, estimated at $3.9 million, is awaiting approval by corporate officials.
"This project allows the facility to stay competitive in the marketplace by improving test productivity, which will improve on-time shipments to customers," Cameron said it in its application. It expects to finish the work in August 2015.
The company's application to the ECIDA offers a glimpse of Cameron's economic impact.
Cameron says it has 584 employees at the Broadway plant, plus 35 employees at 300 Airborne Parkway, for a combined 619 workers. Its local annual payroll is $47.3 million.
The documents list Praxair, Linde, Air Liquid and Air Products as among the plant's major customers. And the plant purchases 33 percent of its annual supplies, raw materials and vendor services from firms in Erie County.
Cameron has not identified potential buyers for its centrifugal compression division, but GE, Siemens and Samsung are believed to be among the interested parties.
Cameron recorded second-quarter net income of $233 million, up 66 percent from a year ago. The company recently completed selling its reciprocating compression division to GE for $550 million.

The only people who actually benefited damage wise from S3 are AD casters, that's it, and it's not even them that's OP (when was the last time you saw Urgot? That's right never), it's just Khazix. I hate S3, the game is just stupid to play.

I can honestly say that I was so foolish with the student loans. It was not so much that I needed the money to pay for tuition, it was because they offered it and I took it. Now I owe about $70k. I hate it. I wish I could go back in time and just say "heck no".

This project's funding goal was not reached on June 13, 2012.
Rapcraft is a open hardware project that brings user friendly thankfull, high quality, low cost 3D printing solution to all individuals, institutions and companies that want to use 3D rapid protytyping and make many usefull things! Rapcraft is Associated with a USA - Polish - Canadian partnership of individual's who worked in this project. Kickstarter can help us bring this project to the next level!
3D printers students can show how creative and innovative they can be. 3D models give a possibility of designing completely new objects, looking for fresh ideas and going beyond limitations. If you are looking for something original and you are interested in 3D printing, the Rapcraft S33D printer is what you have been looking for!
The spatial construction of RapCraft is made with laser-cut precision, which is characterized by its high rigidity and unusual lightness. This solution allows the RapCraft to operate on high speed with loss-less 3D print quality, which is usually caused by vibrations and lack of stability. The assembled printer weights only 16,5 lbs. (7,8 KG)
Rapcraft 3D printer is developed for the low-end consumer markets. What makes Rapcraft different from other 3D printers? Almost the whole construction of Rapcraft is made of 100% aluminum, which is light-weight and solid. No plastic parts! We also bring with Rapcraft CE Marking, meaning "European Conformity" that the manufacturer ensures that the product conforms with the essential requirements, ecology of the applicable EC directives.
Working on CE mark we made sure the printer is eco friendly when printing ABS plastics. With a built-in activated charcoal filter and screen cables to purify air and absorb harmful gases while processing some of materials (ABS for example).
Simple, we want to mass produce, lower production costs and go global.
What makes Rapcraft exceptionally different from other 3D printers on the market today?

Reviews for Gage Academy of Art

i have always been a proponent of providing artistic outlets for adults as well as children. Gage takes this one step further by combining the excellence of world recognized artists to teach and provide inspiration to generations of aspiring artists. As a subject too often lopped off school budgets, the need for art education has never been greater. without it the density of the fabric or our cultural life is greatly diminished.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
exhibitions, talking with students and teachers and walking the halls of the school.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the extraordinary committement to quality and the art that enriches our lives
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
all committed, focused on art and clear on their role to raise the level of artistic awareness in Seattle.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
change the way we perceive art in seattle. it would provide for underpriviledged students, allow adults to give vent to their need for expression and create a better place to live.

JERUSALEM, Israel -- Egyptian border guards arrested an Israeli Arab attempting to smuggle weapons into Egypt on Thursday.
Guards became suspicious of a wooden box carried by an elderly Arab. Upon searching it, they found an automatic rifle, two pistol grips, and ammunition plastered into the box, Egypt News reported.
According to the report, the suspect, Moaz Zoheir, told investigators he works for a tour company in Eilat and was on his way to meet a friend named Hatem Abdel Hamid, who also works in the tourism industry.
In a separate incident, an attorney known for defending Islamists said Egypt has detained about 50 Palestinian Arabs, Lebanese, and Egyptians suspected of aiding Hezbollah and Hamas, al Jazeera reported.
Seven of the suspects are Israeli Arabs.
Attorney Montasser el-Zayat said Egyptian authorities believe the detainees have been funneling money to Hamas.
Authorities believe one of the Lebanese nationals has been serving as a liaison between Hezbollah and Hamas.

|Administrative History:
The origins of the Booth Steamship Company extend back to 1863 when the brothers Alfred and Charles Booth established the partnership of Alfred Booth & Co. with the main purpose of importing English light leather to the U.S.A. In February 1865 the partnership placed contracts for two ships, the Augustine and the Jerome. Charles and Alfred Booth did not own these ships, instead each vessel was owned by a partnership with Alfred Booth & Co. a common partner in each. Alfred and Philip Holt assisted the Booths in these ventures and also acted as partners, holding a number of shares in each vessel. By 1871 the Booths were operating regular services to Northern Brazil along with the Red Cross Line and the Maranham Steamship Co. with whom the Booths shared a friendly rivalry.
The Booth Steamship Co. Ltd. was incorporated on 24 June 1881 with Alfred Booth & Co. having a majority shareholding in the new company. Following the invention of the pneumatic tyre in 1888 Brazilian rubber enjoyed a boom, and by 1900 the Booth Line owned 14 vessels. In 1901 the Red Cross Line and the Booth Steamship Co. amalgamated to form a new company, the Booth Steamship Co. (1901) Ltd. However at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 21 December 1901 it was unanimously resolved that the name "Booth Steamship Co. Ltd." be adopted. The minute books listed below at 387 BOO/1/1 and 2/1 both bear the name "Booth Steamship Co. (1901) Ltd.". The earlier volume of minutes was destroyed some date before 1966.
Also in 1901 the Booth Iquitos Line was established, and when this was absorbed by the Booth Steamship Co. in 1913 possessed two vessels. In 1902 Alfred Booth & Co. were involved in the establishment of the Manaos Harbour Co., a venture in which they had substantial holdings, and for some time, a controlling interest. (See 387 BOO/5/1-17 below).
In 1903 the Company introduced tours to Lisbon and Madeira, and in connection with these produced a guidebook (see 387 BOO/6/3 below).
During World War I eleven Booth Line vessels were requisitioned by the Government for the war effort and nine of these ships were lost. An account of the Booth Line during World War I can be found in Booth Line: War Service, 1914-1918 (see 387 BOO/8/1 below.) By the end of World War I the Booth Line consisted of 18 vessels, totalling 72,149 tons. The reduced post-war fleet caused a reduction in services, and a general fall off in the Amazon trade saw attempts by the company to diversify its interests. One such move was the introduction of the tourist cruise "1000 Miles Up The Amazon".
During World War II the Booth Line again suffered losses, and in 1946 the parent company, Alfred Booth & Co., which had substantial interests other than shipping, decided to sell the entire shipping concern with its subsidiaries in England, the United States and Brazil. In April 1946 the Vestey Group acquired the Booth Steamship Co. but it continued to function as a separate line.
In April 1955 the Company entered into the West Indian trade, in 1961 a service linking Canada, the West Indies and Brazil was inaugurated and the following year the Gulf Service was introduced.
