I really hate that when I try to study, I fall asleep. Holy shit, so inconvenient. Any suggestions for how to ease it?
sleep first get up early to study
Unfortunately it's due to my brain chemistry more so then tiredness, because the topic doesn't interest me and the questions confuse me, my brain shuts down as it's always seeking dopamine and this doesn't give me the dopamine I need. Lol. But I am going to try to go to sleep and wake up early to do more.
Can you trick it using something like Pomodoro where you get a little reward every 20 mins?
I used to listen to music or put on a movie for background noise while I studied.
Not for everyone though and I was always a night owl for those sorts of things.
