Create a Schedule:
The first and foremost condition to work more productively is to get into a routine. It is not always easy for the student to create a work routine with their lifestyle of deadlines, night out with friends and TV marathons. But if you want to make most of your study hours productive then it is very crucial to define your limits. If you are not able to get to sleep at a decent hour each night at least you must try to wake up at the same time each morning. Once you have made a morning routine stick to it and try to wake up at the particular time each day. Initially it may be difficult to wake up early but gradually it will get easier as your body will get adjusted to these changes and in this way you will get to sleep early at night. Along with regulating your sleep pattern, take good care of your diet. Eating healthy food on the right timing will work wonders for your productivity levels.
Always Motivate Yourself:
Motivation is an important factor for the productivity during university life and it can be achieved by setting yourself some realistic goals. Make sure that these goals are achievable because setting overly ambitious targets that you cannot reach will lower your motivation level and gradually make you realize that you are not able to achieve any of your goals, thus leaving you unmotivated and unproductive. Begin with easily attainable, realistic goals like waking up early, going for a morning walk and breathing some fresh air before the lecture. Make sure to achieve these goals as it will result in higher motivation levels.
Planning:
Plan for everything, get yourself a diary and write every task on it from daily to monthly events. Highlight your priorities and made time table to achieve tasks in certain time limits. If a bigger task is in hand, break it into smaller tasks and list them in your diary. For example if you have to write an essay within a week, you can research about the material on Monday, list down the relevant ideas on Tuesday, write the introduction and body on Wednesday and conclude it on Thursday. This will help you to move step by step towards your goals and avoid procrastination. Moreover, these smaller goals are easily achievable and as you attain each goal your motivation level will increase gradually that affects positively on your productivity levels.
Choose your Workplace Carefully:
If you are able to wisely choose the place of your work it can make a big difference on how you perform at a particular day. Designate a quiet and peaceful place for your work. Stay focused when you are trying to learn something or work on a particular assignment or project. If you have selected a place where you will get distracted easily then no matter how much time you will consume with your books the results may not be as fruitful as you want them to be.
Prioritize Your Tasks:
In universities, students sometimes feel over-burdened because they need to meet deadlines with a lot of tasks in hand. To avoid stress in such cases you need to highlight your priorities. Take a start with small tasks like preparing a test for a selected topic or writing an essay that is due in the coming week. After completion of these tasks now focus on the macro-tasks that need more time and attention. If you want to make much of your time at the university productive and fruitful then set your goals and try to be consistent to achieve them.
