Organization helps you reduce chaos and stress, thus making you more productive. Develop a system at the start of your semester. This may include:

條理性可以幫助你減少混亂和壓力，從而讓你做事更有效率。在開學(xué)時把一切都整理得井井有條，包括：

1、Color coded notebooks and/or folders for each class；

給每門課程準(zhǔn)備一個彩頁筆記本和文件夾；

2、A planner with important dates and deadlines filled out；

準(zhǔn)備一個日程表，標(biāo)注出重要的日子和各項任務(wù)的截止日期；

3、Cleaning out your backpack, desk, and dorm room to reduce clutter from previous semesters；

清理背包、書桌和宿舍，把前幾個學(xué)期積攢下來的無用之物處理掉；

4、Organizing your computer files (e.g., by school year, semester, course, and assignment type or project)；

整理電腦文件，可以按照學(xué)年、學(xué)期、課程、作業(yè)或項目分門別類；

如果你知道每樣?xùn)|西放在哪兒，把空間整理得井井有條，那么你就可以把腦子騰出來專心學(xué)習(xí)，做出成績。

Like being organized, establishing a routine helps your life run smoothly.

和條理性一樣，做事有規(guī)律可以讓你的生活更順利。

It’s easier said than done, but try waking up and going to sleep around the same time each day. Schedule time for the gym, any clubs or activities you participate in, and studying. Instead of waiting until the last minute to work on assignments or cram in information, set aside studying/homework blocks each day. 

盡管說起來容易做起來難，但是你可以試著每天都在同一時間起床和睡覺。規(guī)劃好去健身、去參加社團或其他活動以及學(xué)習(xí)的時間。每天都要留出一整塊時間用于學(xué)習(xí)和做作業(yè)，不要等到最后一刻才趕作業(yè)或背書。

Start each day on a positive note by preparing the night before. For instance, set out the outfit you’ll wear to class and pack your backpack with the supplies you’ll need that day. Instead of frantically scrambling around in the morning, you’ll begin the day feeling confident and prepared. Ultimately, these small habits make a big difference in your overall mood and performance.

通過在前一天晚上做好準(zhǔn)備，以積極的態(tài)度開始每一天。舉例而言，準(zhǔn)備好你明天上課要穿的衣服，在書包里放好明天需要的東西。這樣，你就可以在準(zhǔn)備充分的情況下自信地開始新的一天，而不是一大早緊張忙亂地到處找東西。最終，這些小習(xí)慣將會讓你的整體情緒狀態(tài)和表現(xiàn)大為改觀。

“Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future.” It may sound dramatic, but it’s true that the people you spend the most time with have a major influence on you. 

“你身邊的朋友決定你的未來。”這也許聽起來有些夸張，但是你與之交往時間最長的人對你會產(chǎn)生重大影響，這是事實。

Try to make at least one positive friend in every class. Meet ambitious people with clearly defined goals, good study habits, and healthy lifestyles. These friends can help you stay accountable, and they make great study buddies too.

你應(yīng)該試著每門課程都結(jié)交至少一位好學(xué)的朋友。和那些有明確目標(biāo)、良好學(xué)習(xí)習(xí)慣和健康生活方式的有志向的人做朋友。這些朋友可以幫助你保持責(zé)任心，也可以成為很好的學(xué)伴。

Finally, remember to practice self-care and healthy habits. When you eat poorly and don’t get enough sleep, it impacts your mood and your mind. You may feel fuzzy and forgetful, and you’ll have a tough time learning new concepts. 

最后，記得要照顧好自己，養(yǎng)成健康的生活習(xí)慣。如果你吃不好，睡眠不足，就會影響你的情緒和頭腦，可能會覺得腦子迷迷糊糊，變得健忘，在學(xué)習(xí)新概念時也會感到費勁。

Eat nutritious meals (as often as you can), exercise, and get plenty of rest. Studying in small chunks instead of relying on cram sessions is one way to ensure you sleep enough.

平常多吃有營養(yǎng)的飯菜，堅持鍛煉，充分休息。每天學(xué)一點，而不是臨時抱佛腳，也是確保你睡眠充足的一個方式。

Creating new habits is tough at first. Stick with it, and you’ll find that you’re far more productive and successful—and probably happier, too.

雖然養(yǎng)成新習(xí)慣一開始很難。但堅持下來，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)遠比以前效率更高、更成功，應(yīng)該也會更快樂。
