How to Stay Awake During Accounting Classes

Here are some tips to teach you how to stay awake during classes in accounting:

1. Do not eat too much before the start of the class.  Eating too much could make you feel sleepy even if you are interested on the topic being discussed. It is when you are full that much of the blood that circulates around your body goes to your stomach.  The blood that goes to your brain are not enough that's why you will feel sleepy.

2. Have enough sleep during the night. Have 7 hours of sleep, no more no less. 

3. Don’t be too serious about the subject. Don’t think that you have to absorb everything.  Have one step at a time.  Smile for a while or have some stretching.  Don’t be so focused.

4. Don’t think that you are sleepy. Sometimes what you think is what you do.  So very careful on what you are thinking.  If you are thinking that you will be drowsy in the class, you will really go to sleep.

5. Drink coffee before your class. If you are not used to coffee you may try an apple.  An apple a day keeps the doctor away.  Eating apples can keep you awake.
