📚 Pre-exam study tip: The 5-Minute Rule ⏰
5 minutes
That's it.
Just give it 5 minutes.
💡 The 5-minute rule is one way to conquer procrastination. Decide "I'm just going to work for 5 minutes." 🔥
⏰ Choose a task—like studying for an exam. Set a timer for 5 minutes. At the end of the 5 minutes, decide whether to continue or not. Just getting started can be a big win. 💻
📚 You're more likely to be focused when you commit to a task for a limited amount of time. You're more likely to avoid distractions. 📝
💪 You may realize that it's not as difficult as you first thought. This discovery builds confidence and motivation. 🧠
🎯 Just try it!
⏰ Just give it 5 minutes.
