As the brain toils throughout the day, it gets fatigued and you feel exhausted. If you sleep 5 to 6 hours at night, you will feel fresh when you get up. This is why it is said "Early to bed and early to rise make a man healthy, wealthy and wise".

Your posture while studying is very important. The brain and nervous system function through the ionic exchange of sodium and potassium ions. While we are studying if our body or foot touches the ground, the earth will attract the ions from our body. As a result our result become tired so while studying our foot should not touch the floor.

Telephone calls are certainly a nuisance to your study. Keep away from them as far as possible. If you strictly follow your time table and study for 8 hours per day, you will utilize 240 hours in a month.

You should conduct a simple test after two or three weeks of study to know weather you have stored enough thing in your head. Learning byheart is an important thing.
