We all know how studying works. Firstly, sitting on a chart with a fully motivated mind to take on a chapter, but only to find our mind wandering off after a few pages. Then, before you know it, our brain signals that it is time to get some shut eyes. Or perhaps just playing with your phone. Sounds familiar? I’m sure this unproductiveness scene often happens and trust me, it happens even to the best of us. So here are some tips that you can do to create your perfect study space for optimal study performance:

Disconnect yourself

You should turn off all of your electronics to create your perfect study space, like the TV and Facebook. You should also put your phone in a different room, away from the rest of the house. If you want to get more done, you’ll have to cut out all the things that aren’t important.

In this case, you can use Google Chrome’s StayFocusd extension to keep yourself on track. It limits how much time you can spend on websites that aren’t useful. For the rest of the day, you will not use these sites.

Find yourself constantly looking at your phone. Use the Focus Lock app (only for Android) to keep your phone in focus. It keeps you from using apps that aren’t important for a set amount of time, and you can only use them when you’re taking a break.

These tools can help you stay on track with your study goals and schedule!

Headphones ready to go

Despite what research says, music can help regulate your mood to be in the right frame of mind to study.

Remember that you should avoid music with words if you want to study music. This is so that you don’t have to remember two songs simultaneously.

The Spotify app has a lot of playlists that you can choose from, like ambient rock, classical orchestra sonatas, melodic electronica, and even the sound of rain.

Think about how music affects each person, so try different types of music and background sounds until you find the right one.
PS: Avoid music with lyrics, though. Otherwise, you’ll be starting a concert in no time.

Absorb the café ambience

Many people go to cafes to study and work on their assignments. In a café, you can use the free Wi-Fi, use the air conditioning, and drink as much coffee as you want.

That’s not all. Research has shown that even a little background noise in a busy cafe can help you think creatively and imaginatively. This can help you when you’re studying, especially if you’re having trouble with a specific question.

But be careful because loud and disruptive conversations, which happen at cafes, can make you lose focus. Please make sure there is a pair of headphones close by.
Going to a café may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since it can be a little costly. But fret not; you can recreate the café ambience by plugging in the café environment along with your own coffee.

Create your focus zone in your bedroom

Do you like to study late into the night in the comfort of your own bedroom?

You can always create your perfect study space in your bedroom in a way that will help you be more productive. A few things to keep in mind, though.
Firstly, never ever study on your bed, because your bed acts as a catalyst for your body to sleep! Secondly, keep your room clean and tidy at all times as well as keep noises out of your space.
Next, get sufficient lighting to help ease your eyes into long study sessions. Last but not least, try not to use your bedroom for entertainment or other relaxing activity. Else, your study or focus zone will be less effective as your brain signals that you’re in a chillax environment!

This might be the most obvious choice, but many students don’t appreciate these quiet asylums.

The library is a great place to study because it is meant to be quiet, calm, and serene. After all, these places where there isn’t a lot of noise and very few distractions have been good for students for a long time. So as long as there aren’t too many distractions and a “studying atmosphere,” you might find that two hours in the library can be worth five hours in your own room.

Pack your textbooks, look for an excellent place to study, and work hard. Bring your headphones if you want to add some soft noise, or just enjoy the quiet sounds of page turns and whispers of students working hard.

Identify your ‘productive times’

Try to figure out what time of day is best for you to study; just like any athlete, your body can perform at its best at specific timings.

Some students like to study early in the morning before having a whole day of classes. Others think their mental energy is at its peak at night when they have finished their day’s tasks and have time to think. The more you try, the better you’ll be able to figure out which times of the day you can better understand and remember concepts and diagrams.

Get more done during those hours and become a skilled study machine!
