Nursing Students General Students

Published

Hi guys I was actually wondering how I can actually make sure we can actually keep our goals on not being distracted by social life and media that has no relation towards our nursing and to always stay on top of our courses. Please give a suggestion for all of us because I'm even looking to write them down. I just fine that from my past experience I would make promises and goals to accomplish and end up following my promises at the end of the program which had only given me an "average score". So please guys I want this to be different for me and everyone else. Any suggestions?

Hey guys I posted a thread of "ways to keep goals on becoming successful in nursing" within the LPN/LVN section. But I am so determine in receiving great suggestions that I decided to post one in general student section as well. I want to have ideas from all the nurses who can tell me and everyone else on how to stay far away from any type of distractions that can hinder our study habits and increase our procrastination. This time i and I'm sure others on here wants to be able to keep their goal promises and succeed nursing school with great averages. I had made many promises when I was in pre nursing school to get an above average and because of my many distractions that I had allowed to surface in my life, I had end up with an "average score" because of my big dream on becoming a nurse practitioner having an average score would not take me to far and not even with practical nursing. Again I hope to hear from all of you with many suggestions and I will write them down to KEEP OUR PROMISE as successful nurses. Thanks again.

I tend to be easily distracted (especially at home) so I just have to keep myself on a pretty short leash. I basically live by my Google calendar and have all of my waking hours plotted out - class schedule, work schedule, homework/study time, exercise, even blocks of free time. My all-time favorite time-wasting activity is playing video games so I try to study at the library as much as possible and then reward myself with an hour or two of PS3 time before bed if I've accomplished everything I needed to accomplish that day.
