How to Stop Procrastination While Studying

Start with the 5-minute rule — just begin.

Break big chapters into tiny, doable tasks.

Use Pomodoro: 25 minutes study, 5 minutes break.

Keep your phone away or on airplane mode.

Create a fixed study time and place daily.

Write only 3 important tasks for the day.

Use the 5-second countdown: 5…4…3…2…1 start.

Focus on progress, not perfection.

Track study time with a timer.

Reward yourself after finishing tasks.

Clean your desk for 2 minutes before studying.

Study with a friend for accountability.

Small steps daily kill procrastination.
