Turning in that paper I wrote was excellent motivation to get pissed.

My top tip when lacking motivation - give yourself loads of things to do. I wasn't a very motivated student until I had things to do as well as Uni; whenever I've been unemployed, I did nothing. I've not got a great deal to be working on at the moment, but the cherishing of evenings means I get on with it. Eating well, sleeping well, getting fit - all of these will increase your motivation ten-fold, in spite of them all being slightly boring. Also, makes sure you designate some time to get spastic drunk. DO NOT SMOKE WEED. I have known no-one who can sustain a weed habit and be 'pro-active'. Some do for a while, but not for sustained periods (I'm talking years rather than months here).

My usual useless asinine service resumed presently.

basicly, what glice is saying is that you should take speed.

Good advice Glice, I have a butt-tonne of work to get on with, left it all to the last minute again.

I second that getting enough sleep helps, I'm not sure if it was the nature of my degree or what, but the pattern seemed to be: Get design brief, do research, make first design sketches and think of initial concept, bring in to class, get told to keep making more sketches, rethink concept to be more (insert some random abstract word here that lecturer thinks of that day) or rethink it altogether, go back and rethink, do more research, rethink, more sketches, bring back to class with more directions to rethink/change for all the weeks up until the week before it is due, then the last week be up all hours making the model until it's ready for the presentation on the due date, come in to present model with half an hours sleep behind me, and having to grab a good presentation space in the studio with all the other frantic sleep-deprived class-mates also wanting the best place to present, put presentation boards and the model up, and have to present this to the group on how very wonderful my design and concept are while being totally sleep deprived and just wishing I was asleep let alone promoting my design and concept to the class. I don't know how I could've actually had sleep and still got good marks in my projects but I would have been much more motivated with something resembling a normal nights sleep

Im not very good at essay writing. I find it hard to say in 3,000 words what I feel should only take 1,000, and keep it interesting. |
