From Study Stress To Study Success: 14 Tips That Will Take You To The Top

By Lachlan Haynes


You don't have to let things get you down. You don't have to allow life to beat you down and stop you from doing everything you want to do. Don't worry if you're feeling overcome, anxious and exhausted. Why? Because today's the day for you to turn your troubles into motivation and your doubts into inspiration!

Below is a list of 14 tips that will turn your study stress into study success in 5 minutes or less!

1. Create goals for yourself. Write down your goals and include everything you want to achieve this year and all the years that follow. Then look at your goals every day so that you know them off by heart. If you don't know what you want you will never be motivated to take action!

2. Identify obstacles that stand in your path. Figure out those things that are preventing you from achieving your goals - and then remove them from the picture. Don't allow time-wasters (like video games) and energy-suckers (like hopeless friends) to steer you off on a path you don't want. Know what you want.

3. Define the actions required and then figure out which ones come first. What will have the most impact right now? What will create the biggest difference straight away? Figure out which actions are the lifeblood of your goals and do them first.

4. Give your actions a priority. Now that you know what you need to do to get what you want it's time to give those actions a priority. Which actions need to happen straight away? Which ones can you hold off on for a week or a month? Whatever you do, make sure you are taking action. The difference between success and failure is more times than not simply take some action. So do something!

5. Visualize your achievements. The best part about visualization is that you can do it any time. You can do it during class, you can do it on the train, you can do it lying in bed, or you can do it at your weekend job. Imagine what you are going to achieve and how it will happen. Do this every day.

6. Create some affirmations and constantly read them. Make sure you have your affirmations written down so that you can look at them at any time. Never forget what you stand for and what you want.

7. Stretch and breathe. Don't just breathe to live, breathe to relax! Deep breaths are great for keeping your cool and getting the energy flowing. Stretching is great for getting the blood flowing and getting your muscles active. So breathe deeply whenever you think of it and stretch like a madman whenever you have a chance!

8. Read and watch. Find someone (or many people!) you want to be like. Then read their books and watch their YouTube videos. Engage with them in any way you can. Listen to them. Do what they do. You don't need to reinvent the wheel to be a success, just do as successful people do. That's being smart.

9. Live it and love it. There is no point living your life without passion. You need to find a way to love what you're doing and also do what you love. Nothing in life really matters anyway - except living a life you love. You're here for a short time so make it a good time - and good grades help to get you closer to a very good time!

10. Associate with people that are successful. If you spend time with blobs you will become a blob too. You need to surround yourself with people that want more from life. Surround yourself with people that have big dreams and even bigger motivation levels. They will drag you with them and help take you where you really want to go.

11. Become a water drinker. Our brains are 75% water. You can only survive a few days without water before you will die. Waters rids our bodies of disease. Water converts food to energy. Water protects you from sickness. 90% of your blood is water. Water is truly a potent weapon! So start drinking lots of it - every day! It's not that hard.

12. Eat smaller meals more often. If you eat trash you'll feel like trash. If you eat well, you'll feel well. It's not rocket science. But what you may not know is that having several smaller meals a day reduces your chances of being overweight or obese. Stop eating things that are killing you and start eating delicious and nutritious food. But you already know that one don't you? But do you do it?

13. Reduce your consumption of the four fatal stimulants. Coffee, cigarettes, alcohol and sugar are a perfect storm - for illness and disease! If you want to die a young and painful death then knock yourself out. Most people don't really want that - but it doesn't mean they don't consume dangerous things. You wouldn't give cigarettes, coffee, alcohol or loads of sugar to your pet, so why do you consume them? Do you have more respect for your pet than yourself? Weird.

14. Tense and relax. When you tense all the muscles in your body and then let it go it really helps the body to unwind and remain calm. So start using this whenever you're feeling anxious or stressed. Tense and relax. Tense and relax. Ah! Feels good doesn't it?

You have the power to make your life whatever you want it to be. But it truly is up to you. You must not allow others or circumstances to prevent you from doing whatever it is you want to do. Take massive action every day and kick some studying butt! Good luck.
