Not personally ever knowing anyone who is a Yale PhD student or of that caliber, this channel is really cool b/c this is my first opportunity to see first hand how top tier students think/work in an in-depth, personal manner. Great idea for a unique channel. Thanks!
My most productive time (in grad school) is late into the night. During undergrad, it was in the afternoon. A lot of great tips, thank you so much for sharing!
These are extremely helpful tips that I will use and share with students. We did an accountability study session last weekend that went well. Thank you!
This makes me feel better because I keep trying to study in the morning and it never happens but I’m not a morning person but I am not a failure just because I don’t wake up early to study. It’s not a realistic expectation for me. I’ve worked evenings and overnights for years and my body isn’t going to abruptly change just because I want to. I can stay up studying and sleep in and that’s perfectly fine.
The tip about putting items from the task list onto the calendar is so helpful. I've done that from time to time when I was feeling overwhelmed, and it helped a lot. I'll test out doing that more consistently and see how it goes.
I did watch this video four or five times now over the last years. Always useful, always helping. Thank you! I am currently planning out my academic year 2024 and I actually started by looking for my times to recover and rest before I included all the deadlines and other stuff.
How do you deal with the schedule your body "wants" vs working 9-5 where you have no options on working hours? I have this vicious cycle going bc I naturally have the most energy at night, can't sleep early or wake up early to save my life. But I have to wake up and be at work early no matter what...when I get home I have to jump straight into school work, dinner, cleaning, whatever but I'm a zombie bc I got no sleep and had to use so much brain power all day long. Idk what to do
When I worked 9-6 in my corporate job or 7-5 in my professional athletics career, I would come home, shower, take a power nap, and then eat dinner and study until 1-3am. I would then use Sundays which was my only real day off to recover and sleep. However, everyone is different so what worked for me might not work for you.
This video is super helpful and great reminder for time management tips! I am balancing my full-time and part-time job along with study for graduate school entrance exams since I'm hoping to start applications this summer. It's a project in itself! 🤣
I've been around since Kaelyn had around 4k followers and her growth has been phenomenal since then, owing to her immense hard work to put out great content! ❤
I have never heard the tip of using a calendar instead of a to-do list but I think I'll start implementing it right away! I'm a working professional, but in the evenings I do volunteering and self-directed study, and sometimes I get overwhelmed by how big those personal projects are relative to the limited time I have to actually spend on them each day. I can tell already they're going to seem more manageable once they're broken out onto a calendar. The rest of the video was great as well. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this fantastic video Kaelyn! It's going to be a lifesaver for helping me organise my time before my end-of-semester papers and dissertation!
Thank you for this video!! Those tips are wonderful, and the timing was perfect, as I am currently juggling an article, field research, a conference paper and a translation project at the same time 😅 I've turned off notifications for most services a while ago but really struggle to let go of my mail server (I typically let it run in the background, especially when I'm waiting for feedback...). Regarding the reading: Do you typically schedule reading by time (e.g. I will read for two hours) or by length of a chapter/book (e.g. I will read 200 pages)?
Absolutely! It’s methodical in a way that really helps my brain. And I really appreciate the emphasis on getting to know your own body and what works for each person.
In terms of keeping a calendar as opposed to a to-do list; do you map out your calendar at the start of each week or month (or both)? Just wondering if you find it easier to plan by week for short & long term tasks or by month.

Don't lay in the bed and read! I will knock out in less than a minute...LOL

@@jacquelinenelson326 because I have so many appointments and calls, I have to constantly update my calendar as things pop up.
My schedule at the moment is mostly mapped out three months in advance according to the “perfect schedule” model I have set
