By incorporating this skill I hope to
 get my things done faster and more focused as I will be motivated to do it.

Step One: take a walk outside as Thomas Frank said in this video that it tells his brain not to do because he has a lot of work and it will waste his time which is similar to my brain as well as I feel that it would waste my time. However, later on, he said that it will help me to raise my motivation levels. Therefore, I need to try this step.

Step Two: committing on a single task as if I find a task difficult, I would jump to another task which is easy but if I decide to go in one direction then I would make progress or else I would just be jumping around and would not be able to finish the task. I could do this by writing on a piece of a paper that what do I need to do.

Step Three: to clear my work space
as my study area is really messy which will distract me as well and whatever task i have decided on, I am going to work on that task effectively.

Step Four: start from the scratch and I can always come back and fix it ("the blank page is your enemy") as when i don't know what to write for my essay, I stare at a blank page and hoping I would get to know what to write instead, I just waste my time in it. So, I should just write whatever I feel then I can always fix it later on.

By incorporating this skill I hope to be more active in terms of my studies and in health which will lead this to be able to focus on my studies more.

Step One: going out for 20 minute walk during sun exposure as Thomas Frank said that our bodies were designed to move.

Step Two: drink more water as I am a person who is not even close to 8 glasses per day. I can create this habit by carrying water bottle wherever I go.

Step Three: try to wake up naturally and use alarm clock as a back up as this will help me to respect my body's sleep cycle.

Step Four: download sleepyti.me so it will tell me when I should wake up

By incorporating this skill I hope to be able to focus on studying as there will be less distraction around me which will lead me to get better grades.

Step One: turn off my phone while studying as I get distracted when my phone is near me as I always check my phone if someone texted me or not.

Step Two: sit in a place where there's quiet place (maybe go to clubhouse for a quiet environment) as at my house there are a lot of noises whether it is coming from the kitchen or the TV.

Step Three: study in one place and not on the bed as it would tell my brain that it is time to sleep and it will make me more comfortable. However, if I study in one place it will tell my brain that this is the studying area.
