How to Study for Long Hours Without Getting Bored? Want to study for 10+ hours without getting distracted or bored? Well, it isn’t an easy task, to begin with. But you can surely train your mind to stay focused and away from distractions through certain exercises. Here is how you can study for long hours without falling into distractions: Set Achievable Study Tasks First of all, start with setting practical goals for yourself. Take up chapters and concepts that are more scoring, topics of your interests as well as where you are lagging behind and then set a practical schedule and achievable tasks. Learn to Prioritize You must always know which concepts, topics or subjects you need to focus more on and thus prioritize them accordingly. Swap subjects between an hour or 45 minutes or any other time you will feel bored and take up an interesting concept. You can always use a unique subject combination of interconnected subjects or topics which will increase your focus and learning power. Create the Best Focused Environment to Study Finding a peaceful place to focus on your studying is also essential for minimising distractions and boredom. So, you must first look for a place where you won’t be disturbed for a long time (or however long your study time is) and then turn off all the distractions. Put some peaceful study music and then begin. Incorporate Breaks While studying for long hours, you must always incorporate short breaks to relax whether it’s just for a stretch, a long walk or a scroll through your feed. Make sure to put a timer on your breaks and don’t get carried away. Add Some Fun to your Study Sessions Next, you must also try to make your study time fun either by asking a friend to study with you or adding music or engaging learning methods. This doesn’t mean that if you have set a 10-hour study session, you will be watching concept videos throughout these long hours. Rather you should take a certain chunk of your study time, and call up a friend for a group study session or use a learning app to finish up some tutorials. For the remaining time, you must incorporate focus and minimum distraction to get the best out of your time. Nap when Needed Napping has been found to be useful for recharging our brains and improving focus. You can nap for fewer than 30 minutes in between your study time and it is always better to take this nap at the same time every day as this will sync it with your circadian rhythm. Active Not Passive Study Most of us often study passively for long hours without even realizing that we didn’t take away much from our study session. The best way to study actively is to write down your own notes, make flashcards of concepts, or learn through the memory palace technique. This means you must stay involved while learning anything so that you are not on autopilot throughout
