198. The Stitch in Time: Small Habits for Academic Success

We explore five essential habits that can transform your academic performance by taking small, consistent actions throughout your studies rather than cramming at the end. Doing these little things well from the beginning will make your academic life significantly easier when exam time arrives.• Stay organised as you go along – identify and remove your specific bottlenecks to staying organised• Learn what excellence looks like in your subject from day one – seek examples and guidance early• Address confusion immediately rather than postponing understanding – don't let knowledge gaps compound• Create a "tangent list" for interesting but non-essential topics – balance core learning with exploration• Practice memory journaling daily – spend five minutes retrieving key points to consolidate learning• Keep your approach simple – start with one or two manageable habits rather than trying to do everything*Hosted by William Wadsworth, memory psychologist, independent researcher and study skills coach.
