How to reward yourself for studies

 Procrastination has become a habit of me. I know I have been procrastinating on pretty much everything in my life but can't do anything . It starts to torment me .First I did not realize but then it become so hard for me to overcome.This starts to reflect itself in my grades too. My grades were falling and I was helpless.

Staying away from distractions during studies was a most difficult task for me .Many parents advice me to watch motivational  videos  in Youtube but it did not work for me because after two or three videos I ends up watching something else. But this is also good in a certain way for I starts to think about some other ways to get into my studies again .

One day I was lying in my bed as I usually do and an idea came to my mind -“ Can studies be like a treasure hunt ? ”Why not to reward myself whenever I accomplish my already planned goals. You might be wondering “What she is talking about ?” Am I right?It is like treating yourself for the good things you have done .It compels our brain to realize that studies can  also be interesting . Its good to reward ourselves after something we have worked hard on. This encourages us to make that extra effort so that when we do indulge, it will feel so much more rewarding. That’s why I always think of ways to reward myself for studying.

Here I have listed some of them .I use them according to my schedule. Before using them make sure that they are just rewards and our studies are prior to them.
