How To Get Yourself Studying, Reddit-Style<\/b><\/p>\n
As a student, I go through the procrastination phases just like all of you. But I finally get tired of the brain fog and want to \u201clock in.\u201d And no, I\u2019m not talking about a gym routine (even though they may also help). I\u2019m talking about the good ol\u2019 reddit \u2018r\/GetStudying\u2019 page.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re tired of people telling you to get eight hours of sleep or to get some cardio done, I\u2019ve got you. Sources on Reddit recommended ways to snap into focus, like Brain Workshop\u2019s Dual n\u2019 Back<\/a>, a brain training exercise that improves your memory and \u201cfluid intelligence.\u201d<\/p>\n In the same subreddit, another user posted about their own two months of experimenting and research.<\/a> This user talks about cold showers, sitting through their boredom, and even recommends ways to learn when using social media, instead of using it to cause brain-rot and procrastinate finishing your assignments.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re anything like me and need to give yourself a kick to get started, I recommend locking yourself out of your phone or creating screen time for individual apps. Being able to go from eight to five hours of screen time is a huge step in the right direction. Hitting the \u2018not interested\u2019 button on reels helps detach yourself from your apps. Or, go old school and throw the phone away.<\/p>\n – Harper Wainscott<\/p>\n JCCC Students Have Access To A Premier Theatre Experience<\/b><\/p>\n With the spring semester in full swing, the Midwest Trust Center has a full calendar.

When I first started interning at Savvy Bridal Collective, I expected to assist with small marketing tasks and learn behind the scenes of a bridal boutique. Within a year, that internship evolved into a full-time brand management role.<\/p>\n According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers<\/a> Job Outlook survey, students with internship experience are significantly more likely to receive job offers after graduation. My experience reflects that. What began as content support turned into overseeing branding, social media strategy, campaign launches and multi-location marketing.<\/p>\n For students in fashion, marketing or business programs, think outside of the box. In my case, bridal is an overlooked but powerful industry. The U.S. wedding industry generates billions annually, according to WWD<\/a>, creating opportunities in retail buying, brand strategy, operations and digital marketing.<\/p>\n Internships are more than r\u00e9sum\u00e9 builders, they are real-world classrooms. They teach ownership, communication and adaptability in ways lectures cannot.<\/p>\n \u2013 Macla Percy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As a student, I go through the procrastination phases just like all of you.
