Community member Publish Not your original work? Add source I've been sitting here with my room a mess, bed not made, and two subjects of homework left to do all day. I want to make a change in my lifestyle and be more productive and satisfied with myself but I haven't been able to make any good habits stick.

Then I pick the ones that take less than 5 minutes to do. For example: making my bed. I do those first and when I get them done, I realise I don't have much to do left. Also, it gives motivation and is a great start. I recommend watching fayefilms on YouTube. She has great tips for us students. Report Final score: 6points Fadhuwa Hussain POST Deutschland Mädchen Deutschland Mädchen Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 3 weeks ago (edited) Her videos are actually what make me want to be more productive in my studies in the first place :) thank you 1 1point reply View More Replies... View more comments #4 When I was younger I found listening to my favourite song would help get me pumped up. When I was trying to get focused at a competition or prepping for one, I used to listen to MCR songs. Now that I'm an adult, I listen to Enemy by Imagine Dragons.
If I'm just trying to be productive... I put on a loop of disney music from the theme parks. I was a massive disney kid and so listening to the EPCOT test track queue music on a loop makes me feel more positive and less defeatist about what I am doing. Because it is a loop it is easily in the background without drawing my attention too much. I would say find an audio clip that triggers a positive memory for you that is not too intrusive and then just loop it. You feel better overall and more positive and that positivity will help you stay productive. Also when you take a break reward yourself with something with a clear end point (ie. An episode of a show or a single game of league or whatever suits your fancy). If you reward yourself with social media then it's easy to get into a scrolling loop and drain time. Report Final score: 5points Hales M POST #5 I take my dog for a walk. It's usually easier to work something out in your head when out in the fresh air and not distracted.
I would think what needs done first. Tidy my room. Harder to work when we're aware of/have to think about our surroundings. Then I would think about my homework and what it entails.
Lastly, on the way back from my walk, I would think about nice unrelated things and try to free my mind a bit.
Back home and hopefully a bit psyched up I'd get stuck in and tidy the bedroom. Make something to eat and then tackle the homework. Report Final score: 3points RosieB POST RosieB (Submission author) RosieB Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 3 weeks ago I forgot to add. For further motivation I sometimes know there's a treat at the end. It could be a portion of chocolate cake just sitting there waiting for me to finish my task. 3 3points reply View more comments #6 My 2 motivators are anger, and deciding what I want.
Anger gives me a focus like nothing else, it consumes me. I give myself over to it and I will not stop until the task is complete. Boss wants a report and is nagging so much it becomes irritating? YOU WANT THE REPORT? FINE! I'll do you a fecking report! And it will be the most detail report you've ever encountered! It'll be so detailed that you'll change the entire company procedure for tracking that aspect of the business.
The more regular motivator, I just ask myself what I want. Sitting at home in an untidy room. Do I really WANT to be sitting her surrounded by all this mess? Not really, no. I'll sort it out quickly then I can actually enjoy sitting peacefully and reading my book.
I would try the latter. Do you actually WANT to be a well educated, intelligent individual? If you do, do your homework! Do you WANT a tidy room? Then tidy it! It won't take long then you can enjoy and be comfortable in your surroundings.
You said "I want to make a change in my lifestyle and be more productive and satisfied with myself" If you really do WANT it, do it. The satisfaction comes later.

Generally, if it's a task I am dreading (like dishes) I'll tell myself just to load all the cups and give myself something like 5 minutes.
