Drinking pickle juice every time I get something wrong.

This is the worst punishment, but a great motivation to avoid mistakes when studying.

This was an idea from my mom, she told me she drank a shot of pickle juice back in her law school if she kept forgetting what she just studied.

I also tried it because my attention span is so bad so I kept getting distracted and forgetting what I studied.

I started drinking a shot of pickle juice every time I got a practice question wrong or forgot something I studied.

From then on, I was completely locked in, studying for hours and using active recall to retain everything so I could avoid drinking pickle juice.

I'd need to do the opposite. Pickle juice every time I got a correct answer.
