Music for productive study
There’s always been a great debate on whether music can help you study or be a distraction. A lot of us students listen to music while we study, and most of us can agree that it actually can help us concentrate and not get distracted by other devices or other things, but some music with lyrics can. I’ve discovered that a good way to study with music is by listening to more classical, orchestral music, old jazz, music with little to no singing, or even themed ambiences from YouTube. It might sound silly or unappealing but music that is relaxing or has hardly any lyrics can help set the vibe and get us in a better mood.
