How do you guys stay motivated to do school work when you know you have a whole bunch to do? I have to take notes on 15 chapters tonight and I can't even get myself started. Anyone got any advice?

Well obviously for reading it helps ALOT if what you're reading is interesting. Assuming it isn't, I find it hard to get motivated for it to. One good thing is to take it a bit at a time. Do 3 chapters, go on BBW. Do 3 chapters, play basketball. Do 3 chapters, play video games. Etc.I also find that the harder the class is/the smarter the people are in my class makes me try harder. It classes with idiots they always bring you down.
just do it. There is no way through reading other than reading.Look on the bright side, at least it isn't Henry James
No, I've all ready read. I have to take notes over every chapter too. I have to take notes on 15 chapters tonight.

That's a little bit ridiculous unless you procrastinated a whole lot. I agree with the Pestilence. Just do it, I don't know of any motivational tool that can help you, you just have to do it.

Think of how good it will feel when you're done and also you'll be prepared. Hard work is the only way to get a good reward. I know I sound like a dad right there but it's the f*cking truth. Straight up.Also, if that doesn't work, picture yourself standing behind a greasy friolator saying welcome to mcdonalds how may I help you today? If that doesn't motivate you, I don't know what will.
I usually have that problem too. I end up waiting to the last minute but once you know that you HAVE to do it, you get on a roll and you just do it.

I got the same problem, and most of the time I just don't do the work yet I still get B's. It helps when I listen to music during my work though.
