Staying Productive When You’re Sick

When it feels like your face is melting, it can be pretty hard to concentrate on anything — not to mention if you have anything more than a simple cold or sinus infection ailing you. Unfortunately, assignments and exams aren’t always so forgiving.

So today, we’ll be talking a bit about what to do when you’re sick but still feel the need to be productive.

We’ll also be talking about:

  • Actually sticking to your schedule
  • Remembering things from previous lessons and classes

Enjoy!
