8.Choose a maximum of three mini-habits You may be feeling a little bit smug because you already do several (or all) of the study mini habits suggested. That's great! However, if you're not doing most of them you need to choose three. Write down which three you think you are most likely to succeed with. Don't try and do too many at once – you're more likely to fail!

5) File notes in the right place every day Wondering around with a folder full of crumpled and disordered notes? This isn't going to help you meet deadlines or keep track of what you've already learned.&nbsp; When you come to creating revision materials and notes you will thank yourself for keeping everything organised.&nbsp;

At the minimum, make sure you file lesson notes in a divider for each subject and in date order in the file that you carry around with you every&nbsp;day. Once a week take the time to file them into your subject file at home.&nbsp;

Complete your Mini Habits Every Day One of the essential features of Mini Habits is that they happen every day. You don't get a day off at the weekend, or on your birthday, or on Christmas Day. The habit is so small that it can be done whatever else is going on that&nbsp;day.By&nbsp;completing the habit every day you are training yourself to make the habit stick. You are reducing the amount of willpower it will take to complete the habit.&nbsp; Some days you can exceed your mini-habit. For example, you might read two articles about subjects you're studying at school. You might read ten. But, you're successful if you meet your minimum requirement (and that's all you should do on Christmas Day or your Birthday!).&nbsp;

2) Read through a page of class notes at the end of each day This is a form of revision. Reading through your class notes at the end of every day will:&nbsp; Start fixing your class learning in your mind&nbsp; Show you if there's anything you don't fully understand&nbsp; Show you where you might have gaps in your work&nbsp;

You can then take steps to get a full understanding or fill in the gaps. This means you won't be scrabbling around in exam season trying to understand things for the first time. Instead, you'll be able to focus on learning it and practicing your <a href="https://lifemoreextraordinary.com/revision/exam-technique-tips/">exam technique</a>.&nbsp;

FINALLY.... Track your Study Mini Habits - Print off a calendar so you can track your mini habits. Everyday tick off when you've completed all the mini habits you've set yourself.

4) Self-monitor your learning When you're revising, taking notes, reading, watching an educational video or doing any other study task you should always be asking yourself ‘Is this learning experience working for me?'.&nbsp; This is essential if you're going to learn successfully and efficiently. There is no point in carrying on revising in a certain way if it doesn't help you to remember. There is no point in carrying on reading a text if your brain is too tired and needs a ten minute break.&nbsp;

Aim to ask yourself ‘Is this learning experience working for me?' once per day and adjust yourself according to the answer. If you ask yourself the question more often – well done you!&nbsp;

7) Review your day At the end of each day ask yourself these three questions:&nbsp; What went well?&nbsp; What didn't go well?&nbsp; How could you improve?&nbsp;

This kind of self-reflection helps you move forward and constantly do better.&nbsp;

3) Write down your homework at the end of each lesson&nbsp; This is the most important first step you can take towards getting your target grades, staying organised and meeting your deadlines. It's fundamental to getting good grades. If you're not already doing this, don't skip it!&nbsp;

6) Read one online article to supplement your classroom learning everyday Extra reading really helps to cement ideas that you've learned in class and place them in a wider context. It's also really important for university applications.&nbsp; Create a mini-habit of reading one online article related to one of your subjects every single day.&nbsp;
