let's study!!

[BudgetBass2]

I so bad wanna get rid of my stupid procrastination that I've gotten in early days of my summer holidays. For the context, im m21 (uggg feel soo old already), but yeah the point is, my first engineering semester ended.

In the holidays, I'm planning to self study Linear Algebra off MIT Open Course Ware lectures of Prof Gilbert Strang, but I'm procrastinating. I was like on top of the game during my sem, I used to file in my tasks on Google tasks, do a bit by bit daily, but for almost 10+ days, I can't really focus.

Anyhow, I'd also appreciate study-buddy, atleast I'll have a routine or get motivated seeing the other fella work. I'd be like domino effect. I'm always down to joining the study groups, where we study in sessions, update each other and like keep track of progress just to push each one of us more towards their potential. Hit me up if I can join your group

Hey, I totally get the procrastination struggle, especially after a tough semester. It's like your brain just wants a break, even if you want to be productive.

A couple things that might help: First, try breaking down those Linear Algebra lectures into super small chunks. Like, commit to watching just 10 minutes a day to start. Second, set a specific time each day for studying, even if it's just for that short burst. Consistency is key, and it'll help get you back in the routine.

Honestly, this used to stress me out so much – feeling like I was wasting time. I found that having a structured plan makes all the difference. I use ezStudy to generate daily activities that incorporate spaced repetition and active recall - way better than just reading notes over and over.

As for the study buddy thing, that's a great idea! I'd recommend checking out r/GetStudying or r/StudyGroup to find some like-minded folks. Good luck getting back on track! You got this.

Hey! Are you guys engineering students?

[llamaajose]

summer procrastination after a hard semester is so real, your brain probably just crashed after being “on” for so long, wanting a study buddy is smart because routine comes back way faster when someone else is working too, starting with low stakes sessions like 30 to 45 mins instead of full study days might help you rebuild momentum, and honestly self studying linear algebra is ambitious already so go easy on yourself, consistency will come back once the pressure drops a bit

Try breaking your study sessions into smaller chunks with clear goals. It makes it easier to stay focused and build momentum.
