thing is I would prefer to revise at home rather than school/libary

But it's not really about preference if you want to pass well, I much prefer to revise at home but I just get half the work done in almost double the time it's pointless and a waste for me really. I can spend 2 hour in the library and get almost a full section of revision done or attempt it at home were in will take me 4 sometimes longer depending how distracted I get, but this is just me. I also normal have a friend with me when I go to the library who I very academic minded so she puts me on track if I try to go on my phone or if I talk too much :smile:

Hey,

What I try and do is block sites I usually go on which waste time, so I'll block youtube, twitter, etc- you can download add-ons for google chrome and firefox which do this. Alternatively you could turn off your computer! Turning my phone off helps. If you have goals to get something completed that helps, it helps you get in the mind set of completing your work.

stay in a work environment. Move out of your room, and don't forget periodic breaks

There's nothing wrong with relaxing before studying. There is only so much you can do! Who wants to go home only to throw themselves straight into books?

You can always relax for 1.5 hours then study [which is what you are currently doing]. I think the only issue is when you don't do what you are meant to do or fall behind. Life is about work and play not just one or the other.

I turn of the wifi on my laptop.
So every time I go to open the internet it says 'can't connect to internet' and then i remind myself I should not be messing about etc.
