how to focus in study?

1.       Get Rid of Obvious Distractions

It's not smart to study with your cell phone on, even if it's set to vibrate. As soon as you get a text, you're going to look. You're human! You can't focus on studying if you're chatting with someone else, too. So the cell phone is off limits.

Turn off the home phone, too, along with the computer (unless you're prepping on it) and any music with vocals. Post a sign on your door for people to stay away. If you have kids, find a babysitter for an hour. If you have roommates, head out of the house to the least popular spot in the library. For that one study session, make yourself inaccessible to other people, so you don't lose focus when someone wants to chat.

2.       Anticipate Your Physical Needs

If you're studying intently, you're going to get thirsty. Grab a beverage before you open the book. You may even need a power snack while you're working, so grab some brain food, too. Use the bathroom, put on comfortable clothes (but not cozy), set the air/heat to best suit you. If you anticipate your physical needs before you start studying, you'll be less likely to need to get out of your seat and lose the focus you worked hard to gain.

3.       Choose an Appropriate Time

If you're a morning person, choose the a.m. for your study session; if you're a night owl, choose the evening. You know yourself better than anyone else, so choose the time when you're at the height of your brain power and the least tired. It'll be much more difficult to focus if you're battling fatigue, too.

4.       Answer Your Internal Questions

Sometimes the distractions aren't coming from the external – they're invading from within! We've all sat down to study and had worries invade our brains. "When is she going to call me? When am I going to get a raise?"

When these distracting questions invade, accept them, then push them aside with a logical answer:

1.       "When am I going to get a raise?" Answer: "I don't know the answer to that question right now, so I'm going to focus on what I do know right now."

2.       "When is she going to call me?" Answer: "She'd be silly not to call me tomorrow, so that's when it's going to happen."

It seems silly, but if you answer your own internal questions (even with a made-up answer), you'll focus your mind back where you want it to go. If necessary, write the the worry down, solve it in a simplistic manner and move on.

5.       Get Physical

Some people are just antsy. They need to be doing something, and their bodies don't make the connection that they are doing something during studying. Sound familiar? If you're one of them, get out a few things to anticipate an "ants in your pants" issue: a pen, a rubber band, and a ball.

1.       Pen: Underline words when you read. Cross off incorrect answers when you're taking a practice test. Moving just your hand may be enough to shake off the jitters. If it's not...

2.       Rubber band. Stretch it. Wrap it around your pen. Play with the rubber band while you're answering questions. Still feeling jumpy?

3.       Ball. Read a question sitting down, and then stand and bounce the ball against the floor as you think of an answer. Still can't focus?

4.       Jump. Read a question sitting down, then stand and do ten jumping jacks. Sit back down and answer the question.

Tips:

1. Drink your favorite beverage while studying as a reward for your ability to stay focused. Keep it non-alcoholic!
2. Use a good pen like the Pilot Dr. Grip. Sometimes a leaky or uncomfortable pen can undermine your study session.
3. Wear comfortable, not cozy clothes. Your mind will associate relaxing with sweatpants or pj's. Choose something you'd wear to school or a movie.
4. Tell yourself something positive in case you get distracted despite following the steps above: "I know I lost focus, but I'm going to try again and make sure I'm successful this time." Positive encouragement goes a long way even if it's coming from you.

dillemas on best the topic for my research proposal..??

at the first place i want to do on something related to the current information services, like virtual reference,etc since my bos proposed on 'change management' as my topic, as i think it is good especially for my department. so, i just forget on the topic that resound in my head. sadly, dr. diljit said the topic was a wide area of research scope to be covered + need long and depth research.. unless i want to change to research mode rather than mixed mode that i'm taking now. hoho..i don't think so that i can manage my time well as i'm new in working life. it's hard right to get a topic that u can easily merge with working enviroment. he asked me to meet dr noor harun for the topic b'coz it is more related to his field of study. then after met him, 'library anxiety' keep on hunting me. duhh.. no more change management. not too happy. surprisingly what?? there's a lot of student do on the same topic! hate it. i thought me and cda the only pair to do on this topic. actually there are numbers of phD student do on this topic too...  cda already change to information literacy..me?? along suggested was on e-book in public library similar to his.. same goes to k.mina..on reference services..so,i'm in between now.. electronic resources or virtual reference service??

future thinking?

i'm getting older this year.
i can't wait to finish my study and plan for the next step.
wish to have one happy family at home. LOL~
next year insyaAllah..
