It's been a lot since i did anything here on the site, life is taking everything.
Question for you, How do you force yourself to study/work on something that you don't really enjoy?

Every day, but that's how life works :)

I know but it sucks sometimes

True :)

By dangling a reward (such as gaming) in front of myself. ヽ(*・ω・)ノ

The problem with me that i know that it's going to be great for me if do the thing, but still i am not motivated enough to work on something i hate.
Comment has been collapsed.
Usually I mess around and end up not working on it like I should have... :/

I procrastinate and let fear be my motivation in the last couple of days before the deadline.
Comment has been collapsed.
Exactly this!
Comment has been collapsed.
Well that's what i do usually, before the deadline in one or two days but a lot of times this is not enough to get the wanted result
Comment has been collapsed.
I hate to say it but that's me too. For some reason I can't kill the procrastination bug.
Comment has been collapsed.
When I couldn't choose what to do, minimal effort and focus on what I really wanted.
That brought me to now, I'm good enough to do only the later.
Comment has been collapsed.
Glad to hear that, minimal effort does not work for me always but you are right.
Comment has been collapsed.
in short sessions

reward myself with something.
like.. if I study this and pass ( this test, class ) with a B, on this subject I have,
I can buy myself _
Maybe a AAA game, or some new clothes, etc
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a good technique but not useful for myself because if i really wanted that game i will buy it ;v
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah.. I know what you mean.. I do the same. :)
but maybe something LARGER or worth more!
maybe Pass the class = new computer?
just ideas.. hope you do well

Thanks!

Leave it till the last minute and then you have to do it.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's what i do but the result is not good when it comes to exams
Comment has been collapsed.
simply, I don't force myself
Comment has been collapsed.
Well sometimes it's an exam for some subject or work that you have to get done for some money
Comment has been collapsed.
i scare myself with the consequences of not doing it, or doing it late.
Comment has been collapsed.
The problem is i know the consequences and i know how it would be good for me but still i can't get my mind to work on it 100%.
Comment has been collapsed.
Try not to be overwhelmed by worries, try to focus on one task at a time, make small progress and it adds up to large progress in time :)
Comment has been collapsed.
That's a good point, i really overthink things a lot..
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess I'm oversimplifying things, but I try to avoid having a job I hate. I promised myself it would never happen again.
Are you in the right field of study? Or are you forcing yourself into something you will hate your whole life?
Comment has been collapsed.
Right now yes i am in the field of studying, i have my university exams and i can't really focus on some of my subjects at all.. i work as a part time sometimes but working isn't hard as it is for studying.

Thx !

Enjoy!
