Question

How can I stay motivated during school?

I always think of another thing and don't get my work done. I am kind of stressing because I am a week behind, and I am not catching up. I am seeing a therapist but I only meet with her once a week, and I need some help now. <3

Answer 1

honestly it's really hard most times. I know it sounds really crazy but I have a sticker chart like I'm a five year old but I put a sticker each time I do an assignment on time and every time I catch up entirely I put two stickers. Then after the stickers get to 50 I will buy something I have really wanted. you can change it around and it may look silly but it is the only thing that worked

Answer 2

There are many things you can do.

1. Find music that helps calm you and helps you keep focus (my personal one is the Minecraft soundtrack, but you can do whatever.)

2. Try to set aside certain times after school or on the weekend to be able to do stuff.

3. Find something that will keep you concentrated, such as (above mentioned) music, stress-balls, and fidget-toys (fidget cube, etc.)

I have had the exact same problem as you, and these things helped.
