Your ticket to success? Building motivation through reward-based revision

It’s no secret that it can be hard to motivate yourself to study, especially when there are so many more enjoyable things to be doing. So, how can you stop being distracted and start actually getting work done?

The key thing here is distraction. Even now, every time I think about doing something that I know will be a little bit hard, my mind wanders onto things that don’t provoke a ‘panic now’ response. And with watching Netflix, scrolling through Instagram or taking a nap usually pretty close to the top of my list, that difficult task is nearly always at the bottom.
