  1. 1. Have Some Caffeine Early in the Evening
  2. It’s never a good idea to have caffeine too late into the night or can lose some of the valuable sleep your body needs to recover. But if you have caffeine about four to six hours before you plan to go to sleep you can use that energy to drive your homework study time.

  3. 2. Prepare a Number of Snacks for Energy
  4. Having some snacks handy will make it easy for you to reenergize throughout the evening. Try to stay away from sugary snacks that can actually have a negative effect and lead to energy crashes.

  5. 3. Set Up Your Work Area Away from the Bed
  6. If you need to stay up late then it’s probably not a good idea to do you work anywhere near your bed. Set up your work facing away from your bed or in another room to avoid the temptation of laying down.

  7. 4. Organize Your Assignments Before Starting
  8. Don’t waste time digging around your backpack for whatever books or notepads you need to work through your assignments. Take out all of your needed materials beforehand to save you valuable time.

  9. 5. Create a Task List to Check-Off as You Go
  10. Keeping yourself organized can also be made easier by creating a task list that you can check-off as you complete each step of your assignments. This can also be a great way to keep you motivated.

  11. 6. Turn Off All Distractions to Stay Focused
  12. Unless your homework requires you to work online, you should turn off the internet as well as all other common distractions such as the television or your cell phone.

  13. 7. Turn On Some Light Music to Stay Awake
  14. It might be a good idea to have a little music to keep you awake. Just don’t choose anything that is too loud or distracting. Perhaps something that will likely grab your attention but not negatively affect your work habits.

  15. 8. Create a Schedule to Keep Track of Time
  16. Take a look at your assignments and figure out how long it will take to complete each task. Stay on top of this schedule to the best of your abilities so that you don’t spend too much time on any one part.

  17. 9. Turn Your Breaks Into Activities to Energize
  18. When you take your breaks try to do something to energize your body and rest your mind. Don’t lay down for a short nap; you might just fall asleep for the night. Go for a walk or do some light exercises instead.

  19. 10. Review Each Section Before Moving Forward
  20. Lastly, review each section before moving on to the next. Doing so will ensure that you understand where you are at in your assignment as well give you the drive and focus to move onto the next challenge.
