Procrastination Horoscopes Aries While being impulsive can be fun, it can also mean you find yourself out late at night when you had planned to be studying. Use the courage you’re known for and tell your friends that you might need to lay low for the next few weeks. Taurus Being devoted as its benefits, but spending three hours perfecting your Spotify playlist instead of studying isn’t one of them. Try flexing your responsibility muscle by studying with the playlist in the background. Gemini It can be tough to make decisions and get things done when you’re feeling really worried. And you can only distract yourself by cleaning your room for so long ;) as one of the air signs, it might help to go for a short walk outside to clear your head and then put a study plan together. Cancer If you struggle to back yourself, you might be tempted to give up on that assignment and spend hours just scrolling through Insta. Draw on your determined nature to help you focus. Try breaking it down into small achievable chunks, and congratulate yourself when you get it done. Leo While your creative mind is to be admired, unfortunately closing your eyes and counting to 10 won’t make your essay magically complete itself. Instead, focus on your breath with ReachOut Breathe for a couple mins and then get stuck into that essay. Virgo You tend to be pretty hard on yourself at the best of times, and it’s even worse when you’ve been playing Candy Crush for two hours as a ‘short break’. Try sending your trademark kindness towards yourself and remembering that no one is productive 100% of the time. Build a study schedule that includes regular breaks. Libra It can take a while for you to make a decision – even when you’re trying to decide which Netflix show to watch. Ask a friend for a Netflix recommendation…then watch an ep as a reward after you’ve done what you need to do. Scorpio When you have a little tendency to compare yourself to others, it’s easy to become jealous of your super-productive, power-studying friend. Try writing down everything you’ve done in the past day. It’’ make you feel better, and you’ll want to keep adding to the list. Sagittarius Being idealistic can be a good thing, but think twice before leaving an hour to do that 3000 word essay. Sharing that meme to the group chat can wait. Direct your generous spirit to yourself so you don’t have to pull an all-nighter at the last minute. Capricorn If you’re expecting the worst (like thinking you’re gonna fail anyway), it’s easy to quit studying and go down an online shopping rabbit hole. Embrace your responsible self and try to figure out what’s blocking you from getting stuff done. Then you can work to solve those problems. Aquarius While it’s endearing, being aloof means that you sometimes forget about that assignment altogether. Channel your independence by creating your own plan. It can be as simple as writing down what you need to get done and by when. Pisces It’s awesome that you have a holiday to look forward to, but not super helpful if you spend all your time dreaming of escaping the pressures of your exams. Use your motivation to get stuff done before then, and save the TripAdvisor research for well-earned study breaks.
