And the guide includes all 31 tips all in one place. It's quite a bit to read through, but it will be very helpful if you're currently studying
0:29
for the CPA exams. So tip number 7 is to study in the morning
0:35
Trying to study after work is usually a losing proposition, whereas starting the day off
0:41
with a two-hour study session, this has countless benefits. Here are a few reasons why
0:46
First of all, your mind is fresh. Your ability to focus and understand material first thing in the morning is much higher
0:55
than after a day of work. Studying will feel easier and you'll retain much more and you won't have to sit there
1:01
and try to get yourself in the mode for the first hour. The second reason is there's no distractions
1:07
There's nothing like studying in a quiet house or in a quiet environment
1:11
And early in the morning, there's nothing else going on. There's no distractions
1:16
You can get more done in two hours in the morning when your mind is fresh than trying
1:19
to struggle through three or four or even five hours after work
1:23
When you've been working all day, your brain is fried and it's just not easy or effective
1:28
to study. The third reason is it's just a smart thing to do
1:32
Now regardless of how much time you're trying to fit in each day, if you get in a quality
1:36
two-hour study session before you leave the house, nothing else can come up later to get
1:42
in the way of that. When you leave it for the end of the day, there's so many things that can get in the
1:46
way and it's so easy to brush it off and just think, okay, I just don't have time tonight
1:51
I'm going to go and do this instead. I'll just pick things up tomorrow
1:55
And when you do that, when you take a day off, it's much harder to get back in the groove
2:00
And it's very, very easy for that phenomenon to start where one day of no studying turns
2:05
into three days, that turns into a week. And then you start thinking about pushing back your exams
2:11
So you can't miss days of studying and doing this highly effective two-hour session in
2:16
the morning is just a guaranteed way to keep things moving forward
2:21
Now, this is just one of the 31 tips from our free guide. In this guide, we cover motivation tips and strategies to help you sit down and study
2:29
each day and make each session effective. We cover time management strategies
