One thing I often do to help myself concentrate on studying is listening to instrumental music, especially love-fear or classical piano music. I discovered that this music taught me about two years ago when I was rebelling from my high school graduation exam. I found it hard to focus because of noise around me or because it was usually distracted by my phone. I also found a friend’s jacket trying to break ground music so I gave it a try and it worked surprisingly well. The short time of love-fear music helps block outside noise and create a cam-asmo feel. I usually listen to it with earphones while studying in the library or in my room. I use a playlist that has no lyrics so if I interfere with my reading or writing, I feel that habit really improves my concentration and reduce stress. It also makes long study sessions feel more enjoyable. Now it has become part of my study runtime, especially during exams or when I need to stay focused for a long time.

One thing I often do to help myself concentrate on studying is listening to instrumental music, especially lo-fi or classical piano music. I discovered this music about two years ago when I was preparing for my high school graduation exam. I found it hard to focus because of the noise around me or because I was usually distracted by my phone. I also found a friend's playlist featuring lo-fi music, so I gave it a try, and it worked surprisingly well. The soft tones of lo-fi music help block outside noise and create a calm atmosphere. I usually listen to it with earphones while studying in the library or in my room. I use a playlist that has no lyrics, so if I get distracted while reading or writing, I feel that this habit really improves my concentration and reduces stress. It also makes long study sessions feel more enjoyable. Now, it has become part of my study routine, especially during exams or when I need to stay focused for a long time.
