Studying - "Play Music To Get Into The Right Frame of Mind"

Frame of Mind

What is getting into the "Right Frame of Mind"?
What does this mean?

Motivated

"Play music to get motivated to study."

Why play music to get motivated to study?
How does playing music get one motivated to study?

Studying

Studying is often an ardurous, onerous task, which one endures, instead of enjoys (God...does our species have to mature beyond the notion that life HAS to be painful).

Music, music which one is fond of, elicits powerful positive EMOTIONS which make the otherwise barely, bearable task of studying, "not so bad".

Forcing oneself to endure what is unpleasant is rendered less painful by the stimulation of beloved melodies and rhythms.

Conclusion

Where does the fuel for studying (or anything) come from?
Emotions.
