Motivation is like a key that you often tend to lose. Sadly, you cannot find it under the bed or table. You need to make one for yourself every time you lose it. Things become worse when you are asked to pen down a book report as you need to devote much more time to it than your other assignments owing to its huge length. It’s true! Students find the task tedious, some even torturous. So it is not an ideal phase for someone to stay focused and remain motivated to complete this task. But this post divulges some brilliant tips that will keep you hooked to the writer’s chair for long enough to finish this task.
No abracadabra please! These are self-motivational phrases that students need to keep telling themselves when their bodies feel low on enthusiasm. Want to know what they are? They are really simple. ‘I can do it’, ‘I am capable of doing it’, ‘I know how to do it’. See you don’t have to make any effort to remember them. You can repeat them while standing in front of a mirror or keep writing them down on a piece of paper.
Sometimes, all you need is YOU only

Seeing yourself achieving expected or unexpected is all you need to get your sense motivated, just like Ron had seen himself in Mirror of Erised, lifting Quidditch Cup as house captain in Harry Potter series. He was all excited and motivated to live that moment. Sadly, we don’t have Mirror of Erised which can show us our ‘future’. So in that case, what you can do is take out the past assessment reports on which you did really well. Pull out all those assignments in which your teachers had given you good remarks. Your past success will motivate you to give your best in this task and receive same accolades like the previous ones.
No, not talking about marks or even the mental relief when you will put the assignment down on the desk of the professor. We are talking about the rewards that you promised to give yourself. If you have not decided yet, what you should get yourself when you successfully finish this ‘evil’ task, now it’s the time. Frankly, it can be anything; anything that you want like a short trip with your friends, binge-watching your favorite TV series or even bunking college for one day. Pick a wish. In order to make the wish come true, you will definitely try and accomplish the task and achieve the goal.
‘Focused’ is the word that is probably a near meaning of motivated. If you are motivated enough, you cannot be focused. But in order to take a big leap, you have to take two steps back. So before you think about isolating yourself to focus on the task, get distracted. Surf through your news feed, see photos posted on the Instagram or do little chatting with your bestie. When you start feeling guilty of not doing the task, get back to the task and do it sincerely. Tune out from the world and concentrate on your writing.
Despite eating a lot of book, research, articles and other resources on the subject and getting all information you need, you don’t feel like writing the paper. It can be because you are not inspired enough. Every writer needs inspiration, even academic writers. But reading more academic resources might not get you inspired, so in your case, we would suggest that write your mind out. Not heart because everything you have read is in your mind. Write whatever gibberish you want to write because no will judge. It is seen that when people start free-style writing, they get into the flow. And this is when they find their motivation.
Many writers follow certain habits when they have to write such as Benjamin Franklin used to soak himself in the bathtub, Truman Capote liked writing while lying down on the bed, and Shakespeare picked up the pen, rolled between his fingers before starting to write. Like them, you can also have a writing habit like using pen and paper rather than computer. So be you and get into that comfort zone where you feel secure. It will definitely give a sense of motivation.
All of us want to find that little in the world; their own identity. But here we are not going to advice you on how to make your mark in the world. It is about finding a place that makes you motivated. It can simply be your dorm room or the college garden, local or campus library where you can study quietly, or even in the busy coffee shop. It completely depends upon your preferences. Before you settle onto one, you might want to test all settings.
J.K Rowling lost her mother who was the only support system she had, while writing Harry Potter Series. She sank into deep depression, grieving, even thinking about committing suicide. But she did not give up; she used to scribble down notes on dinner napkins when she failed to get hold of enough papers. Despite experiencing the pain of broken marriage and being a single mother, she completed the book. But she got rejected by 12 publishers until Bloomsbury Publishing found her manuscript. And the rest is history. Inspired? Yes, you should be. Success stories like this always tickle your inspiration. So read a few of them in order get back the motivation.
Fears, like leaving the task out on frustration or receiving poor marks at the end, will not let you rest. But you can restrain them from affecting you. How? Think about the worst outcome of not doing the paper – losing some valuable marks, getting insulted in front of the class, bashing from the professors. Find what can be done to avoid these consequences? The only thing you can do is ask your professors for a deadline extension, so that you get more time to deal with the task. And remember one thing, this is not the end of the world. If you fail in one assignment, you might do well in the next one in order to balance it out.
It is all about hormonal balance in our body, which can be controlled by foods we consume. There are many foods that increase focus, memory and reaction time as well as control stress and fight depression. Here are foods that can keep you motivated – Tuna fish, spinach, whole grains, blueberries, pecan, sunflower seeds, Greek yogurt, flaxseed, green tea, grass–fed beef, kale, strawberries, walnuts, eggplant, pumpkin seeds, coffee, avocado, tomatoes, dark chocolate and water. Healthier body means healthier mind. And eating right kind of food can help you achieve that goal.
When you see the time you have in hands is ticking away, you feel less interested to do the job. Your shoulders automatically droop and you want to stop the work. But it will land you on much trouble. So, no running away. Let’s give you one good idea on how you can stick around when you cannot find motivation. Plan, plan everything, plan every little detail. When you get the task, create a timeline. It is like having a fake deadline apart from the real one. After creating a timeline, plan it in your mind that how you want to complete the task. If it’s necessary, write it down somewhere. When you complete tasks as per your planning, you get motivated to complete the paper and live up to your own expectations.
Similar to an academic paper, a book report also starts with an introductory paragraph. And by default, students begin with introduction chapter. We advice you otherwise as writing an introduction might eat up the last drop of motivation in your body. As it always stays in students’ mind that the introduction is the first thing that readers see, so it has to be perfect. This puts them under a lot of pressure. So naturally they invest a lot of time writing an introductory paragraph. Sometimes, it does not turn up the way they want. It leads them to anxiety and depression. So it is better that before you jump into writing the introduction, write the main body of the book report. It certainly gets you in the flow. When you are totally into the flow, you can write the introduction chapter and then conclusion at the end.
While writing a book report, mostly students are drowned in the sea of information, overpowered by the number of ideas and perplexed about completing the task. But once you complete it, you are free from the mess. You don’t need to read for hours in order to get a small piece of information, or work throughout the night to get the assignment completed. You can do anything you want like sleeping at the odd hours, playing video games, hanging around with your friends, etc. Think about those things that you want to do after completing the paper. Do some daydreaming while writing. It will motivate you to complete the tasks quicker.
Of course, it is for grades! But what good grades will do to you. Yes, it will help you maintain a good academic record, stand aside of the crowd, put you in the good lot from which employers mainly select. These perks only can be achieved when students keep up with the coursework. And writing assignments is a significant part of any coursework. So students have to pay great attention while doing if they are serious about achieving something in life. When you want to run away from the tasks, think about the bigger pictures. Think about the grades that might change your life for good.
We have no rechargeable batteries like machines. We have muscles that need to be rested. After certain period of time, our body demands relaxation. And the number of the productive hours a person is able to work depends on that person’s mental stability. It is crucial that you know yours. Because if you push your mind beyond your capability, it never gets you results, moreover it brings some adverse effects. Generally, experts say students should study for 20 minutes and take a break for 5-7 minutes. After that break, they come back to studying and finish the due task. But it also depends on individual choice: how much they want to work and then rest to rejuvenate your senses.
Now you have foot-recipe of making ‘motivation’ potion and drink it. You will be motivated and focused than never before.
