Haven't you ever had the struggle to focus while you do school work? Yeah, I know that feeling. Well my friend told me these pretty neat tips on how to focus. I don't guarantee they will work for everyone, but it might help someone. - The first thing you could do is go to 8tracks.com and find yourself a playlist of lyric-less songs. There are playlists especially for studying and most of them help a lot. Keep in mind that it has to be a lyric-less playlist or else you'll get distracted. - Something else you could do is think about the future. For example: Ask yourself if the grade you get from this homework deserves to be fixed later. Is it really worth it? Sure you might not care now, but later you might feel sorry. Plus if you get a better grade now, you won't have to worry later and it's easier. - Try and set yourself little goals. I've personally used this. Let's say you're doing Maths homework. ( Not that anyone wants to, but we need to...Unfortunately.) You can say: "I'll do from one to three of these and I'll eat a gummy bear."( or a piece of chocolate, or something else you like. ) - If music doesn't work out for you, surround yourself with silence and try again. This is all I can think of for now, I hope it helped and if not, I apologise for wasting your time.

Studying tips is a nice subject to talk about. How to get motivation to study in first place is even more nice. I find myself fighting to even start reading or practicing the material. I learn PHP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript, I also read a book named Positive Intelligence (hopfully, it will give me motivation to do what I need to do). Sometimes I feel like doing it and sometimes I don't. How come I fight myself to even start studying or start reading if I know I want to do it ? Sometimes I feel like the effort is worthless because I will forget most of the material that I learn. I wish to become an expert in a minute and it can't be done without digesting the material, dealing with the complication, and challenging the brain. So, understanding the root of the problem can help finding a good solution. The solution for me is to just start doing it and choose to like it and not to feel it as suffering. Like going out, thinking about stuff...Those are all the same.

in my opinion you can not be intelligent in every subject so first of all you should try to know in which subject you take more interest.It is only your interest that inspires youto study. If you come to know the subject, you study hardwith single mind and concentration. SUDY IS NOT POSSIBLE BY FORCE.YOU CAN TAKE A HORSE TO THE WATER BUT CAN NOT FORCE IT TO DRINK THE WATER WITHOUT THIRST. Thank you.
