Well, arrange your schedule so that you do the most important tasks during your most efficient hours.

Number 3: Let it flow. This is entirely dependent on what works for you.

严格坚持一张计划表会拉低的你效率。如果一切进展顺利，你会想要延长你的工作时间。
At the same time, if you can't seem to focus too well, step away from your work for a bit to clear your head.
同时，如果你无法很好地保持专注，那么就离开工作，清理一下自己的头脑。

不要忘记照顾自己的需求。
Number 5: Make a list. Make it clear to yourself what you want to accomplish in the session by writing it down. Being specific is key here.

Number 6: Repeat, repeat, repeat!
6. 重复、重复再重复！
Studying a subject for a couple of 30-minute sessions is more effective then studying for one long three-hour period.
将学习时间分为几个部分，每部分时间为30分钟，这样比连续学习3个小时更加有效。
This requires a more careful distribution of your time. If done right, your productivity and focus will improve.

Write down what you need on your to-do list and go back to do it later.
在任务清单上写下你需要做的事情，稍后再回头去做。

精确地找出让你分心的东西。或许是你的手机、你的笔记本或是冰箱，是它们阻碍了你对手头任务的注意力。
Once you have identified the source, you can deal with getting rid of it while you work.
一旦得到确定，在工作时，你就可以摆脱这个分心物。

Designating a specific space to work will let your brain know when it's time to concentrate. In addition to making it easier to fall asleep when you've finished.

Number 11: Finish! A lot of students will study until late in the evening and then go straight to bed.
