How to Develop Self-Discipline for Studying

3:00 PM

Self-discipline is an important part of college or any schooling for that matter. Discipline can help you focus more and procrastinate less. These tips can apply to many different grade ranges, especially for high school  and college students. So, here are a few ways that you can start developing self-discipline for studying.


Make a Goal

Some important questions to ask yourself:
  • What is your goal? 
  • What is it that you are trying to accomplish? 
(E.g., Are you trying to be more self-disciplined because you can't study or stick with a goal?)

These are questions that are important to ask yourself because they determine how you will develop your own self-discipline and what methods you can use.

Don't Make Excuses

“I attribute my success to this - I never gave or took any excuse.” ― Florence Nightingale

Making excuses have never helped anyone. Be honest with yourself about the steps you will and need to take in order to develop discipline to accomplish your goals. 

Try Different Methods

Certain people need different things. Some people need to schedule times to study and work on assignments, while others can do it without thinking about it. Find what methods work for you and don't be afraid to try different ones.

Reward Yourself

Even if you don't reach the milestones you set for yourself to reach. Make sure you reward yourself for reaching small goals and making progress. A few rewards you can try are things like:
  • Taking breaks
  • Hanging out with friends
  • Buying something to help make more progress

"You started it, you finish it"

There will be times when the going gets though, but you must push through. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and it's waiting for you.

What are some things you plan on doing in order to become better at studying? Let me know in the comments! Until the next post.
