Ep.147 Why It’s So Damn Hard to Be Consistent With Your Studies as an Adult Learner
#147 – It’s pitched as the *most* important study skill, but why is it so goddamn hard to be consistent with your studies as an adult learner? When you’re studying alongside a busy life – as a distance learner, mature student or a workplace learner – it’s pretty hard to study in an unchangeable rhythm. And trying to do so and failing can really bottom out your motivation and mindset. In this episode we’re going to tackle why it’s so hard to be consistent with your studies – and you’ll learn what to focus on instead. Because I would argue that there’s a more important trait that is *much* easier for adult learners to embody. Nail this and you’ll bounce back faster from studying setbacks, be able to flex your studying around your busy life, become a more resilient, confident learner…all so you can graduate with the grades you really want.

To learn effectively involves a significant amount of uncomfortable, stretching processes. The issue comes when students believe that finding studying really difficult is a sign that they’re just not that great at it. And when we regularly feel unconfident as learners we’re more likely to procrastinate, self-sabotage and just generally feel poopy.

Ep.131 How to Overcome the Biggest Disadvantage of Distance Learning
#131 – I am a HUGE fan of studying in a way that fits into your life, and learning from home is a great option for many students, however there is one pretty hefty disadvantage of distance learning. Isolation. Studying at home alone. Studying without ever meeting your peers. Studying without much interaction with your tutor. There are lots of practical issues with this but there is one area that’s often overlooked – the emotional toll of studying by yourself. It can be harder to motivate yourself to study, and more difficult to pick yourself back up after a setback. It can be a struggle to keep yourself disciplined and focused too. But don’t worry. Today’s episode is all about addressing this biggest disadvantage of distance learning. I’m going to share multiple ways that you can feel more connected in your studies and we’ll dive into exactly how you can become a calmer, more focused student and how you can more easily make positive changes in your studying. Sound good? OK, let’s dive in. To get the links and shownotes for this episode, head to: . Enrol in the . to grab a copy of my book, The Return to Study Handbook.
