I’m currently preparing for exams which are very important to me. Some days I can work for 6 hours or more without stopping and I get loads done and feel great about it. Unfortunately some days I get up and I can’t bear to work.
On bad days, I feel like I can’t focus on anything, and no matter how much it stresses me out, my brain just refuses to put any effort in. I have no motivation and just feel like going to sleep or giving up and doing something to waste time.
Generally I find if I work a lot one day the next day is more likely to be a bad day.
Does anyone else have this? How do you prevent this or at least cope with it?
Also, take breaks often and mix things up (for example, studying for one subject for a bit and then switching to the next, then back, etc). Burnout might be a big part of why this is happening.
I thought burnout was more of a long term thing, whereas mine tends to resolve the next day (or occasionally after a few hours). Sometimes I will have a weekend which is bad
