7 Ways to Keep Motivation High in 2024 YKS Preference Marathon

The YKS preference period can be stressful and challenging for many students. It is of great importance to keep your motivation high during this process. So, what can prospective students do to keep their motivation high during the 2024 YKS Preference process? Here are the details...

1. Be Clear on Your Goals

Students need to clearly define their goals in this process. Determine which profession you want to do in the future and create a preference list in line with this. If you have not decided yet, we recommend you to be a little faster in your research.

2. Don't Stop Researching

It will be useful to get detailed information about the department and the university during the preference period. For this, you can examine the active web pages of the universities or go to visit them in person. Remember that the more information you have, the more informed your choices will be.

3. Be Positive

One of the main reasons for low motivation is stress and negative thoughts. Being positive during the preference period will reduce your anxiety. Be confident in yourself and try to think positively no matter what the subject is, so as not to make the conditions difficult and not to be a prisoner of emotions.

4. Celebrate Yourself

Celebrating your achievements is one of the key factors that will boost your motivation during the selection period. You don't have to overcome huge challenges to celebrate yourself. Celebrating small successes will motivate you for much bigger goals.

5. Be Planned and Scheduled

Just like during the exam period, you need to be disciplined in your choices. Create a calendar for yourself and try to stick to it as much as possible. In this way, you will have an efficient preference period and you will be able to make strong choices without losing your motivation.

6. Make Time for Socializing

Socializing during the preference period will refresh your motivation. You can spend time with your friends, do sports or spend time for your hobbies. This way, you will be able to ignore the factors that cause your motivation to drop.

7. Believe in Yourself

The essence of motivation is to believe in yourself. Believe in yourself and do not give up in any difficulties you will face during the preference period. Your belief in yourself will be your source of motivation. Therefore, focus on your goals and do not lose your belief in success.

We wish all our students a successful preference period!
