What to do when you get spaced out about math [study tip]
Tuesday, May 10th, 2016Here’s a super powerful and easy study tip that you can use anytime.
I’ve been using this study tip since I was in college, and continue to do this to this day.
Are you studying … practicing your math … and you start to get spaced out?
You feel like your brain is full?
You’re having trouble concentrating?
Maybe even getting a little frustrated?
It’s time… for a solo dance party!
Yes!
It’s time to DANCE!
I’ve found that even just taking a break to dance to ONE song can be enough to get me refocused. Sometimes I need like a three-song-long dance party.
Taking a break to have a solo dance party can:
-make you feel happy
-help you feel energized
-refresh your focus
-give your mind a chance to integrate what you’ve been working on while you’re focusing on something else (dancing)
-actually help you get your math homework done faster because you return refreshed and renewed.
Also, just FYI, professional mathematicians will deliberately take breaks in order to give their subconscious mind a chance to find unexpected connections and solutions.
I just had a solo dance party myself before I wrote this, and I highly encourage you to do the same!
