Every student, confident or not, has to find ways to blow off steam during the GMAT Focus preparation process. Stepping away from your desk and being physically active is a great way to do that.
Particularly if your GMAT anxiety is high or your level of confidence is low, regular exercise can be surprisingly helpful. Exercise provides a mental reset, gives us an energy boost, helps regulate our sleep, and can make us feel stronger.
A daily walk around your neighborhood. A yoga class or a sport you love to play. However you get your body moving, try to make some form of physical activity a regular part of your schedule. Your mood will benefit, and you’ll likely feel better equipped to manage anxiety or negativity you feel about the GMAT.
On the flipside, it’s also important to make sure that you’re getting adequate sleep throughout the GMAT Focus preparation process. Being sleep deprived can have a significant negative impact on your mood and make studying for the GMAT Focus Edition more difficult.
