Excuses, excuses. I claim that students are the masters of making up excuses since they constantly agonise over picking up the book. The struggle with your willpower and the temptations of delaying the responsibilities is excruciating. All this reveals the one fact we can't deny: we are lazy. It is so true because once you open the book, you sometimes realise that it isn't so bad after all, especially if you like the subject. The beginning is always the hardest part.
Now I will tell you a secret. I always write a studying plan on a paper and intentionally book more days for it than I really need. Doing that, I don't have to feel so guilty when I delay the starting day a little. Well, the downside is that once I delay it with one day appealing to extra time, the next day I appeal to the fact how I am already good at the subject so why would I need to study so much, and the next day I convince myself that the mark doesn't matter so much.. It's the average that counts, right? Okay, well, I am good at school and I really do study, though this makes me sound like the laziest person on the planet. I am not, really.
However, being a little lazy can be a bad habit but sometimes you just need to be lazy. Nobody can work with 100% every single moment of every single day, it is not healthy. So, the next time you need an excuse for taking a little break, think that you are just protecting your brain from overheating. You won't learn anything in that state of mind anyway. You'll do fine. And well if you don't, you have nobody but yourself to blaim. So, take a deep breath, do something fun and return to study when you have gained back your energy and motivation. That's the way it should be.
