How to overcome a study slump

After the end of the Fall semester, I lost every passion I had had during the semester. It has been a week I've been in the school library for study, but I have done nothing due to loss of concentration. so, how do I get over a slump from a study? Here are some tips.

Remind yourself you are important in somewhere

Once starting slump, you might feel you don't keep up with your competitors, and you might be frustrated. Such frustration only causes a vicious cycle so that every situation around you would get worse and worse. Not to fall such a cycle, you have to remind yourself there is always a job you can do well In the case of a baseball player "Park-Chan Ho", when he fell slump in deep, it helped him to get over it to think he can teach the young students even if he would have been fired out of the team.

Goal Oriented

In business, there is a concept 'MBO (Management by Objectives)'. MBO techniques requires us to specify the goal as narrow as possible. MBO works better if specified goals are visible, and easy to follow the track. As desiring stronger, goal would be getting clear and easy to specify. Desire strong enough to see daily schedule easily.

Keep the current moment the "toughest" moment

It summarizes how to keep yourself from slump and being lagged: Putting every breathe to the road give by the Lord. A slump comes to everybody at anytime. The only medicine is time. There is no way but to keep making efforts without thinking of slump. Always dream, and push forward it.
