Getting all of your homework done can become a daunting task. Which is a shame, because that is where most of the actual learning takes place. But these six steps should be of help to anyone who is ever assigned homework!

If someone at school asked you ‘did you’ wake up this morning, you would be able to answer pretty quickly:’yes!’ But what if someone asked you ‘why?’… ‘Wait, what??’ you might say. Or what if the question was ‘Why did you come to school? Why did you do your homework? Why did you stay up late with your friends to finish that chem project?’ The answer to those questions, if I may suggest, should always be: because I have a goal!
