Overcoming boredom when studying
When you have to study for an exam and you get very bored, how do you keep going?
I enjoy what I'm studying, but I don't feel like studying it right now. I also am not afraid of failing the exam since I have enough time, it's just that I'm gonna have to study a lot in the last days and it's not gonna be as effective as studying a little bit each day. I am very motivated when working on my website, for example. And I also like to watch movies because I can put myself in the characters' place and feel strong emotions. I am motivated in any challenging real life situation.
But I want to have the skill of being able to perform boring work if I choose to, especially since what I am studying is really interesting and relevant to my interests.
