Dress for School, Even When You’re Studying Indoors

There’s something about putting on a favorite outfit, or a great pair of jeans and just sitting on your couch reading. As an online student you have the luxury of studying in your pjs, taking a midterm in your sweats, and taking a final in your bathrobe. It is very convenient that you don’t need to get ready to go out, but maybe you should.

Making the extra effort to look the part could make you feel more productive. Think about it, you’re already forcing yourself to get ready. You’re showered, have clean clothes on and you’re on your way out the door. The great thing is you don’t need to leave the house, just look the part. It may even give you a boost of confidence.

Since the luxury is there to wear whatever you want, you don’t need to do this all the time, but perhaps just on occasions of a big test. That way you’re being more stringent on your activities for the day.
