33. How to Get Started Again if Something Derails Your Prep [Mailbag]

Life happens. No matter how hard you try to stay consistent with your test preparation, sometimes you get sidetracked and need to figure out how to get going again. Indeed, that's the question at the heart of this week's Mailbag Monday episode, as submitted by Jayant:

"What do I do if something derails my prep? How do I reset and get started again?"

In this episode I share a 5-part plan to help you get back on track -- and stay on track -- so that you can put your exam in the rearview mirror once and for all. Whether it's only been a few days or several months since you last sat down to study, the process for jumpstarting your prep is the same. By the end of this show you'll have a workable plan of action and specific strategies to keep you working powerfully toward your goals. Enjoy!

Note: As referenced during this episode, be sure to also listen to Episode 25 of The Dominate Test Prep Podcast for more on "How to Find the Motivation to Study."
