Hey all--
I was just wondering how you guys keep yourself focussed for multiple hrs at a time. I always find myself having to get up after an hr or even just day dreaming for an hr before i get started. Like, 5 hrs will go by and I wouldn't have accomplished much ( or atleast as much as I should have in 5 hrs). I know I dont have ADD now. I do well in school, it's just that I'm getting scared that when i start studying for boards and I need those 12 hours of studying to MEAN 12 hours of good work, that its gonna be hard. I mean i can sit there for 12 hours but my output surely isn't of 12hrs--know what i mean? And somedays it will be amazing and i won't even realize that 2 hrs have past. I want to not think about anything else when I am reading, and that is all i want to focus on. Anyone else experience this? and how do you overcome this? It just seems liek it takes me way too long to get through what I want and at the end of the day when i think back to everything I have read, the time spent is not representative on the amount of work I have done--ya know? Any suggestions?
