<Title>Study Tip of the Week: Mid-Semester Motivation</Title>
<Tagline>It can be low - especially when the weather is nice!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <span>Welcome to our Weekly Study Tip post! This week is about what to do when you need a little bit of mid-semester motivation. This can be difficult, especially after Spring Break! Let's get that momentum building again so you can have a strong finish to the semester.</span><div>
    <br><div><span>You can check out our <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsNrdPCpzUc&amp;ab_channel=CNMSAdvising" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">weekly video on this topic here.</a> We hope you find it helpful!</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span><strong>1. Find Your 'Why'</strong></span></div>
    <div><span><strong><br></strong></span></div>
    <div><span>It's easy to feel less motivated right now when you're really swamped. Sometimes it's hard to remember why we're here in the first place when we're bogged down and overwhelmed with work or obligations. Try putting a visual reminder of your ultimate career goal somewhere you see it a lot: on your desk, or as the background image on your phone. Remembering your 'why' can be a boost!</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span><strong>2. Make Checklists</strong></span></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Checklists are one of the most intrinsically motivating things you can do for yourself. Every night, make a list of things you need to do the following day. (We don't encourage doing this in the morning - give yourself some time between creating the list and actually getting to work.) Throughout the day, check things off as you finish them! You can use the Notes app on your phone, a widget on any of your devices, GoogleKeep, or just plain old pen and paper. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>3. Create an Accountability System</strong></div>
    <div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div>Our top tip: if you're trying to get through some tough homework or study sessions, schedule them with a friend or a small group. Find a quiet place to work, have everyone decide on a task and say it out loud, and then set a timer for 50 minutes. When it's done, take 10 minutes to socialize and talk about your progress on your tasks. Repeat as many times as you like.</div>
