I am not sure about OP's reasoning, but I personally find it a bit 'motivating' to study in a slightly not-so-comfortable environment. I mean, it gives me sense that I am actually determined and am working hard. It also reminds me of my college days when even finding an air-conditioned room anywhere was just not possible.

- jjuel 8y agoCould also give you the feeling of being uncomfortable. Then when you are struggling working through a problem you get so frustrated. And think "If only it weren't so damn hot in here." Then all you can think about is the heat, and you are so lost it cannot be returned. So then you give up for the day, and really haven't accomplished anything.
- badosu 8y agoExactly, your mileage may vary, but my mindset has to be completely free from distractions to be productive. The library on my uni when I was in Math undergrad did not have AC at the beggining but was the only place where I could do any work, it was extremely difficult and I am sure impacted my progress.
- squeaky-clean 8y agoA hot room sounds horrible, but the memories of college days does make sense to me. My college was freezing cold, and my search would be for a room where you didn't need to wear 2 sweaters to be comfortable. But yeah, the idea of studying in a really cold room "makes sense" to me, and this might be why.
