Getting motivated...

[Kastiara, ASN, RN]

I have my final in Microbiology tomorrow and should be studying but just can't find the motivation. I think I'm just burned out on the prerequisites at this point and am so ready for my nursing courses to begin (start in Jan.). I also think that the fact that I don't need a high score to pass the class (I need a 55 to keep an A) is contributing to my lack of motivation. I do need to study at least a bit just so I don't completely bomb the test.

Anyone else having motivational issues at this point? Any advice on how to get motivated?

It's good practice for the future, so you don't get burned out and you last longer, so just do it: Turn off the computer/laptop and put your phone out of your reach even turn it off! If you absolutely need the internet or ppt's online to study then have that up and only that, no sidetracks!

Example. I took piano this semester for fun. I couldn't get through a whole song at first I asked why my teacher said "your brain is tired you have to train it to keep going" so keep going!
