    Turn your phone and electronic devices off. Amazing how much time is saved.

    Get your best friend or cruel big sister to whack you on the head everytime your mind start to wander.

    For me, tying up my head while listening to blaring music seems to work. This compilation seems to do the trick.

    Em.. And why are you here now?


    Tips for doing many works at once / multitasking..

    Take notes and make a list of your to do list.
    Put priority besides the list so you know what to do first..
    I know the list is long but if you do it one by one eventually you will finish it all..
    Happy working!

    - I don't recommend messing with your brain chemistry if you can help it. Especially if you don't have a medical professional monitoring you. If your are experiencing anxiety, prolonged depression, or hyperactivity, though, you may want to consult a professional.
    - Find a quiet place to study. This is tough at first, but can be a good habit with some effort.
    - Figure out where your time goes (light novels, surfing the web, etc.) and remove from yourself when you study.
    - If you "studied" with friends in the past, figure out if you get more done with or without them. Some good friends are just not the right people to get stuff done with. If you're laughing & joking and wondering where the time went, that's a sign that you're study group isn't working.
    - Get sleep. You're more productive that way.
    - Get help from teachers.
    - Realize that you've got a limited pool of willpower. Take breaks. Tell yourself that when you're studying, you study. When you goof, you're in goof mode.
    - If you get distracted easily, don't turn to another activity (such as checking your phone or email, etc.), sit still and let your mind come back to the subject at hand.

    See if there are any re-courses to getting expelled:
    - take an incomplete to focus on other subjects, then finish the one that you're having trouble with
    - make-up classes
    - talk to your teacher or advisor

    Depending on the subject, there are some specific strategies.
    - On technical subjects (such as math, science & engineering) practice problems help. Old tests are good. If you're in college, reference books like Schaum's reference guides help. Most professors provide a reading list at the beginning of the semester. Some professors even reserve additional textbooks in the library for the students. For non-college students there are various guides on Amazon, etc.
    - When I used to tutor, the two problems that I see are usually: 1. What situations to apply an equation or an idea. 2. Showing the work. For 1., doing practice problems usually help, since seeing where the equation is applied helps you see where it might pop up in the future. For 2., give yourself a lot of space for each problem; one whole page if you have to. Again references help, since they show the work as well.
    - If you're writing papers in English, grammar trips people up sometimes. I found that "Grammar for Smart People" was a good reference. Otherwise, printing out the paper and reading it out loud to yourself helps to catch errors.

    Ganbatte and get back to work :p.
