I have been dealing with ADD since forever. Through all those years in school I’ve learnt a few things that help me study and keep my grades good.
🌼 Have 2 things to focus on
This might sound a bit odd but you have to distract yourself a little bit. Sitting down to a book, in a complete silence won’t help at all. You’ll find something else no matter how empty the room may be. Give yourself two things to focus on instead. The first thing is studying and the second should be something that doesn’t cost you too much thinking. Here are a few ideas for your second focus:
Have something simple in your hand to roll it around (e.g. a stone)
Music with no lyrics
A piece of paper to fold
A pencil or pen to play with
A ball to throw around
A calm pet (the calm part is important, no cat chasing!)
🌼 Try to study alone
Other poeple will not only distract you but you will aslso distract them too.
🌼 Turn off your phone
🌼 Switch between the subjects often
Study one thing for some time, then other thing and then come back to the first thing. Change things up as often as your memory can take it to keep your brain intrigued.
🌼 Change study spaces
🌼 Give yourself time to stare into space blankly
🌼 Ask someone to snap you back
Ask someone to check on you and snap you back to reality in case you lose attention
🌼 Learn in as many forms as you can
Try things out (if it’s safe to do so), hear them, look at pictures.
🌼 Give yourself enough time
Don’t wait until the last minute. Give yourself as much time as you can.
I hope I helped and have a nice day!
This was probably the greatest thing I’ve seen all day!!!

We live in an age of information, and it’s becoming even more difficult to be in control of our attention. Every second, it seems like there’s something new to be consumed, something new to pay attention to. Because of this, it’s important to take control of our attention and more intentional about how we spend our time, and we can do so by practicing attention management.
