Make a list of things to do but keep it reasonable

# data[].attributes.body
- Escape your room/house! Play a game, watch a film, read a book. Really immerse yourself in a different world.

# data[].attributes.body
Try to wake up early and aim to get a few things done a day.

# data[].attributes.body
Get dressed everyday!! Even if it's still comfy clothes! Just getting out of pyjamas works wonders for the brain

# data[].attributes.body
Make plans to do things afterwards so that you can reward yourself after doing work. Whether that is going for a walk, watching your favourite tv show

# data[].attributes.body
Work a normal day for example 9-3 or 9-5 with morning and lunch break, then take the evening off like you would if we were still working or at uni.

# data[].attributes.body
Start you big tasks by breaking them down into smaller ones. You will feel more of a sense of achievement and progress :)

# data[].attributes.body
Make small lists for every day on a few things you need to do. Make these easy to accomplish. I usually add in general things I need to do as well as uni work as this can help me see all the small things i've achieved too!

Routines are good. Times now are difficult and there's nothing to look forward to or get dressed up to. But I find that if I get up early, get dressed into semi comfy/ semi nice clothes and put on a bit of make up then I am ready to do some work if I'm feeling good about myself I'm feeling good about the work I will get done that day. If I am lazy getting ready then I am lazy doing work.

If you're struggling with a piece of work - get your headphones and for a walk outside, listening to your favourite music & being outside the house even for 10 minutes helps to adjust your mindset. Then when you go back home and try to do more on that piece of work, it feels much easier.

Be kind to yourself and do what works for you. Treat yourself in the same way you'd treat your best friend.

Fresh air is always good, even if it's just a ten minute walk around the block. It helps to clear my head.

Write down a list of achieveable goals each day (eg 200 words on major project) and celebrate completing them! If you don't manage them, just move them to another day.

# data[].attributes.body
Going for a walk every day (or when you feel you can) is so important. It gives you a space outside of the house and is proven to help your mental health. I find it to be the only real escape from the work environment since there is now a merge between work and relaxation in the house!

# data[].attributes.headline
Routine!! I always follow a similar routine where I do uni work for 2 hours in the afternoon and 2 hours in the evenings and always have 2-3 days off to myself. I find it really motivating and i know when those 2 hours are up i can relax and watch netflix or do something i enjoy

Write down what you would like to get done and then tick it off to see that you have done it. Make sure you take breaks!

# data[].attributes.body
Always have something to reward yourself with when you’ve finished working, whether that be playing a video game, watching something, having a call with friends because it’ll help you keep motivated during working but will also help you feel a bit of a sense of accomplishment

# data[].attributes.body
Give yourself time for things you enjoy! You deserve it! And remember to eat and drink. Your body needs energy to survive

I try to maintain contact with friends that I can't physically see, and have daily dinners or hangout with my roommates. I try to distract myself by finding new hobbies which was mostly catching up on anime, start embroiling and make and edit videos. I also took non paid jobs and internship to pass the time and build work experience (wish I got payed to). most importantly I WENT OUT INTO THE SUN DAILY. Being inside so much gave me a vitamin D deficiency, which affects your mood and may give you depression. Go get that tan kids!

# data[].attributes.body
Make sure your work space is bright! Especially if you're working in the evening. My student house is very dark and i have a tiny window so I always have two lamps on. Burn some candles if they add to the atmosphere. Anything to feel nice in the space you're in :)

# data[].attributes.body
I make sure that I work for at least a few hours monday - friday and allow myself to have the weekends off, this gives a bit of structure.

I also love the app Flora, it makes sure that I am off my phone for a set amount of time. I usually find myself going over the set time and doing extra work :)

Be realistic about your goals/things to do. When you start to work ALWAYS put your phone face down! Let fresh air into your room! Make sure you stand up and move every hour or two. Remember that everyone needs time for themselves to relax, go for a walk, watch a movie.

Drink water! Often I find lethargy to be as a result of dehydration, so sometimes simply having a drink can really help your motivation.

Don't feel bad if you need a day off. Everyone has their bad days, don't force yourself to do work if you're not in the right mindset. Give yourself that day off and then work out what you're going to do the next day when you're in a better mindset.

Start by being proud of yourself of the small things you have achieved, even if it's something that seems silly like just getting out of bed and having a shower. You will never be able to achieve the bigger tasks if you haven't started with the smaller ones.

Checklist the night before with a mix of time slots of work and small rewards (food, walks, TV episodes)
If I can't motivate myself to start I make myself for 10m if i don't want to do anymore its fine but once i have started i rarely stop!

You are the most important person! Congratulate yourself on the fact you are going through a pandemic and making it work for you however that means. It's hard to not compare yourself to your peers at times but know you're all coping in different ways

# data[].attributes.body
Make sure that you give yourself small breaks every half an hour, it will take longer to do the thing you need to but it’ll make you feel more productive and motivated!

# data[].attributes.body
Make small realistic goals.
Talk to friends outside of uni, and talk about things not related to uni.
Make small goals non-assignment related to keep a good balance.

Give yourself a few hours of work and then have a break of an episode or something and then go back to it. Or get yourself to do a days amount of work and then you can treat yourself to a movie night on Netflix or get a takeaway or something. Give yourself something to look forward to but if you don't do it then you're not allowed that treat. Be hard on yourself but not too hard

I make a small, realistic list of things I want to get done that day/week. So for example today I added my lecture, doing a home workout and doing 2 tasks for my major project. In that way it's manageable and it won't be too much to do whilst still keeping me occupied and feel like I've done something that day. I even add things like watch a movie or cook just so I get some structure to the day!

# data[].attributes.body
Leave your phone on the other side of the room or keep it turned off so you won't be distracted

Exercise before you start doing work, so leaving the house feels like you’re leaving to go to work.

Go for a walk and get outside
everyday to clear your head

Take a moment for yourself and just step away from the work,. sometimes you just run out of steam and you have to accept that.

Whilst working listen to some motivational music, it can be instrumentals if you get distracted by lyrics😂.

Always try to get changed and face the day as you would post lockdown! It’s gives you a sense of normalcy.

Write out a do list each day! Keep it simple and achievable, this will allow you to slowly complete bits and pieces of your assignments. Like writing 300 words a day, or reading an article.

Take breaks in between writing, and a rest day to re-charge! It will give you time to connect with friends and family. But also when you look back over your work you’ll be able to spot mistakes, and places to expand on.

Don't start your day off with the most exciting part of your day as the rest of your activities aren't going to match that level of stimulation. Build up to that highlight!

Go for walks and exercise

Listen to your favourite songs in the morning when you're brushing your teeth, do some exercise, write at least 1-3 things you need to do today. make sure you always do you! know the importance of yourself!

Make a list of things you have to do over the week for example, start with the thing you are not looking forward to the most. As soon as you've don't that you will feel a weigh lifted off your shoulders as you won't worry about it anymore. Then everything else you have to do will seem way smaller and more manageable. Give yourself time off during the week and take regular breaks.

Have something to look forward to at the end of your day, even if its something like your fave meal or binging a series after work. But don't beat yourself up if you don't complete what you didn't want

# data[].attributes.body
Give yourself breaks while working. Change your working place from time to time.

Personally, I like to watch tv series at the same time I'm working, it's not the most productive way of doing things but it has helped me to get things done.

# data[].attributes.body
Make a list of what you want to accomplish for the day. Also have breaks in between to rest your mind. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.

# data[].attributes.body
Take rest days when needed. Totally switch off from work and study. But schedule them so you don't end up taking a whole week off.

Take each section of the Dissertation step by step. Don't feel overwhelmed. Make a schedule for how you will tackle each section so you can tick them off. This gives a sense of achievement!

Chat to your friends who are also at Uni. Talking to them will remind you that you are not going through this alone.
