Day 1: Start small
Choose one task you can begin in 10 minutes. Write exactly what finishing looks like.
Seven days. One small promise to yourself.
Start a manageable study routine with one focused task each day. This challenge is free to use, print and share with classmates. You do not need Zenith to take part.
Before your first session
Choose a subject, a specific task and a time you can protect. Start with 10–25 minutes, then take a break. Adjust the length to suit you; completing the task matters more than a perfect streak. Use any timer, including our free browser timer.
Day 2: Clear the desk
Keep only the materials for one task. Silence optional notifications and put distracting devices out of reach.
Day 3: Recall first
Close your notes and write what you remember. Check your notes afterward and choose one gap to practise.
Day 4: Protect one block
Reserve a realistic 25-minute block, or a shorter interval if needed. Take a short break afterward.
Day 5: Return to a hard topic
Revisit one topic from earlier this week. Try a practice question before rereading the solution.
Day 6: Work alongside someone
Invite a friend to study at the same time. Each person chooses their own task; share what you completed afterward.
Day 7: Review and repeat
Record what helped you start. Schedule your next three sessions at times that fit your actual week.
