What are the best tips to keep yourself motivated in doing your final project or thesis?

Writing or typing a thesis, dissertation, or dissertation is exhausting. Why? Because besides typing, we also have to think hard. Thinking about sentence structure to ensure it's logical, orderly, and meets scientific writing standards. Not to mention wondering, will this be wrong? Will my supervisor approve, after all the typing and being told to delete, etc.

The enemies of thesis writing are: social media, YouTube, websites, email, WhatsApp groups, and so on. These are the things that will drain your energy before you even realize you've spent the whole day watching YouTube. When in fact, your original goal was just to relax a bit from typing your thesis.

Because this is still a pandemic period and you have to work from home, the biggest temptation is to take it easy just lying around scrolling through social media.

Here’s a tip from me: When I was writing my dissertation, I would type for 30 minutes, then take a break. During the break, I would lie down and relax on the bed, but with one rule no phone, no magazines, no TV, no music. Just resting. After about 10 minutes of aimless lying down, I’d get back up and continue typing. Then lie down again. Then type again. Back and forth like that the whole day between bed and keyboard. Sometimes until 5 in the afternoon and it was really productive.
Once you break the rule and start watching YouTube, your time will be gone just like that.

There’s no such thing as random browsing. There are only two options: typing your thesis, or lying down on the bed.

Don’t open WhatsApp Web on your computer!
Just stick to your thesis and resting.
The point of lying down is to rest your eyes. In short: if you're bored of typing go lie down. If you're bored of lying down go back to typing.
