      Especially as another Chinese person this hits hard. Hearing you talk about what your grandparents went through is really similair to what mine went through. Altough I would say mine were more fortunate than yours, they still had to go through horrible things such as the cultural revolution and the great leap forward.

I have people complain to me all the time about how "there's not enough time in the day", "life isn't fair", etc etc meanwhile they have a supportive family home, money, live in a great city, scholarships, etc. They are literally just spending 6+ hours a day on their phone for no reason. When I tell people I don't have instagram/tiktok/snapchat they look at me like I'm an alien. "What do you do all day then? how do you talk to people?" Ummmm.....

Just like you said, it’s all about taking accountability and putting things into perspective: they ask “why don’t you have social media?” And you can ask back “why DO you have social media?”

    I try hard because of what my mother went through.
    When my mom was little, she was born into a very poor family. She left her parents at 14 and then she got into a horrible 4-wheeler accident and ended up with massive brain injuries. They told her that she was now mentally disabled. But being the person she was, she pushed through. She went through college on her own, she got her own job, she got married at 18. she got into a terrible accident at 18 and she was told she was never gonna walk. She was told she had a year AT MOST to live. All of her bones were either fractured or broken. I thank that neurosurgery that saved her life. My brother still has the letter from her in the back of his baby picture book saying that she loves him even if she isn’t there. But, again, she pushed through.
    That’s what makes me try so hard. she had me in her darkest times and put herself through hell bringing my brother and I to our needed therapy and doctors’ appointments. (I am visually impaired and had a lot of conditions and my brother has ADHD and high functioning autism. He’s a great brother though:3) my brother and I used to be special ed, and she put us through so much to get us where we are now. I want to make her feel like her hard work paid off by getting into top universities and becoming what I want to be. It’s why I try so hard, it’s why I study, it is my motive.
    The kids at my school are poor, but they do not value their education. They don’t care about it. It BAFFLES me. Their parents went through so, so much to get them into the US. It’s pretty unexpected, honestly. here I am, the privileged child who is (not trying to be rude) much better off than them but values their education. I understand what my parents went through, but they don’t seem too.
    I do wish I was sighted, though. I can’t read a book like everyone else, I’m forced to do Braille and use this cane and this bulky acrobat- it’s exhausting. I remember crying because I couldn’t read my math book that I wanted to read. I can’t play sports because of my visual impairment and hermansky-pudlak-syndrome (comes with a bleeding disorder and the reason I’m visually impaired, sadly). none of my classmates would trust me to be a club leader at all, and since my teachers don’t know how to teach a visually impaired student, my grades drop. I have to self-teach myself all the material the school tried to teach me at home because school simply can’t teach me what I need to know. Sometimes just knowing all this makes me cry too. To all the people that have sight, please value it..

    My mum's grandmother was born in Lebanon. When she was little they had to flee to Egypt because it wasn’t safe where they lived anymore. She moved there when she was about seven years old and went to school there. She absolutely loved school and was happy she was able to go. When she was seventeen she was married off to a Lebanese man (my great grandfather) and was devastated she couldn’t continue with her studies. They moved to Australia and started a life there. They had my grandmother and her siblings, and later on my Sitty (grandma in Lebanese) had my mum. My mum studied science and later met my dad in Japan. He’s an English teacher from Britain. They decided to move to Spain and build a house. Then I was born and they started an English academy around that time. Now I’m a teenager who goes to the most difficult school in my city, but this video really opened my eyes to how privileged I am to live this life. I’m just realizing how long this is getting so I’m going to leave it here. Thank you so much!!

    ive never been a great student. i used to and still get average grades and fool around. i never rly liked sitting down and studying, but when i did (after my parents forced me to) i got crazy good grades. i got 97% in my 10th board exams (cbse board) in social studies with just a weeks time to prepare, with the continuous struggle with my parent. i had 21-ish chapters to finish and i was rly rly scared. but that was all cause of my parents.
    i never rly had the right kind of people to lean on in school, most of my friends were rly toxic and made me feel like i had only one role, which is to be the group clown and mood maker, but internally i wished i could be much more than just that. When i got a higher grade than our "group smartie pants" (pls dont come after me for these nicknames) they... i mean idk if they actually did see me in that light, but i felt like i was "not supposed to be smart", that i should just "stick to being dumb". that kinda got ingraved into my brain and there after i never scored above 80%. I stopped putting in any effort and barely put in any effort for tests and examinations.
    When i look back, there were so many times where i have been like, super crazy and smart, in my standards. back then, i used to listen to class and get 60% in most of my subjects. My then friends, always made it seem like they never studied at home and only goofed around, so i thought 60% was all i could get and never put any extra efforts.
    Now im in my last year of school, regretting everything. i had no motivation to do anything with my future and thought i was a total failure. last year, i barely passed my finals, and again, the friends or the ppl i have around me, rly arent the best. maybe its just my insecurities but idk, i dont rly care anymore. I know that whatever i have rn, is much much MUCH more than someone else. i am quite healthy, i have a roof over my head, food and water, education, and loving supportive parents. I dont think i can ask for more.
    I realized after listening to your videos, that, its ok to be judged, its ok to be left out sometimes, when u you know that your the one who's gonna gain the befits. I want to be strong and independent, and ik i dont have much time to prove that, but i still have time.
    Thank you so much for helping me realize that, im not the only one who doesnt like studying but wants to do good in life. My circumstances might not be the best, but as chemistry says "diamonds are formed when carbon is put in a condition where there is high temperature and high pressure". We are all born carbon (like literally), so we can all become all shiny and cool and pretty like a diamond too, if we put in the hard work.
    (p.s. if someone read this...autobiography, if this helped u like.. idk a little or u kinda relate to this, u arent alone. and pls dont take this negatively. idk if i could communicate exactly what i feel, but yea :D)

    I was so uninterested in studies thinking that theoretical knowledge is not my thing I'm made for extra curricular skills but my asian father as usual wanted me and my sibling to be great at academics. With being in a country like India(the real things going on with locals, the discrimination, the cast system, economic problems) I slowly understood that when the forest is burning you need to take care of that first.) knowledge is power and has the greatest value I'm slowly learning this, the extra skills might seem faster way to success(as with idols /actors) but it's temporary and its value degrades gradually. So I'm going to literally the BEST version of me because I'm so privileged to have enough money, resources, and a good institute to make me practice for the goal I have.

    For some reason the algorith sent me (28F with a 6-figure job I love, getting my MBA part-time) here. Glad I watched this, you inspired me to text my mother a long 'thank you' message because she set me up with a privaleged life in which I could always focus on my studies. My motivation has ALWAYS been to pay her forward and be able to be there for and financially care for my mother as she ages. I hope school-aged folks take this to heart - studying is a GIFT.

    Some months ago I started being grateful for being grateful for being sick because it is not one of my younger siblings. Weeks ago, I started to be grateful for despite being ill, being capable to pursuing my goals, while others are in worse situations (in hospital beds or just cannot- like really cannot), or the kids in more rural areas who don't even imagine a way out of poorness. It might not be easy for me, but I have way more resources, energy, and health than them. So now, I remind myself that if not for me, at least for those who cannot pursue their dreams and goals.

I'm sooo grateful for what I have. And I'm also grateful for not having everything because that's what drives me to go forward.

    Honestly, I realize that I have so much potential wasted on social media. In fact, after struggling to do my first high school class over the summer, I watched one of your videos and willed myself to delete all of my games(even the ones that don’t save to an email etc.), my discord and RUclips. I honestly still didn’t spend much effort on my class, but I still did have much more time to complete all my assignments, and really study in depth. Due to this, I was able to get a 5.0! Thank you, Amy, for helping me realize how much social media is rotting my brain, and how much better I can be without it.

    I agree 100% with everything you've said. I had depression and anxiety since I was a young teen, and I've been seeing psychologists for YEARS. I've always struggled to study (and I still do), and I've always struggled with other things such as eating well, exercising, getting out of bed. The thing that worked the most wasn't any of the tips my psychologists gave me to implement new habits. The best things they did were
    1. teach me to sit in the discomfort instead of going to my comforts such as stress-eating or scrolling on IG or looking for new Webtoons etc. If I didn't want to study, they told me to just sit until I went to go study again.
    2. change my whole outlook and mindset on my life. Tbh becoming a Christian did this significantly more for me, but it was definitely something my psychologists were trying to teach me too. Once I adopted more similar mindsets to the ones you talk about, my perseverance and resilience when it came to studying improved a bunch.

    Hi Amy,
    I usually don't write comments but I really want to thank you. Just two years ago I had decent grades, but my life was miserable and my mental health at an all time low. I spent 6+ hrs on social media every day trying to ignore all my problems. But last summer I decided that I had enough and wanted to fix my life and found your channel. Now, I have extracurriculars 5 days a week, while still meeting with friends and actually enjoying life. I realise that getting an education is a blessing, especially in the country that I live. My parents came here from a different country with a hard life and not great education, just to give me the opportunity for a good life. I am so grateful to them and also to you for igniting this fire in me. My grades keep getting better and better and now I'm at the top of my class. I'm driven to achieve my potential.
    Thank you

      I've also really taken the value of learning through free resources by heart. many, including me, sometimes forget (or don't even realize!) how MUCH info is available in the world. no, really, Google and AI has catapulted the world into a completely new dimension and era. just take a moment to acknowledge this, and it's one step towards achieving the human capital you want to build for yourself.
      (PS: you should not obsess over trying to make hard work fun, but when you're working on something you so deeply + intrinsically desire and love, you can't help but make it fun. Amy shows us how shallow tips of "gamifying studying" or searching up "hOw tO sToP pRoCrAsTiNaTiNg" is just hiding away from the root problems.)

    As a 15 y/o immigrant who moved to Canada just more than a year ago(with my mom while my dad has been in Canada for over 11 years), I sometimes forget how hard my family works for me. I've always known it was hard but my parents made sure I never had to face the same struggles they had. Having a roof over my head, more than enough food to eat and clothes to wear, better education and everything I get to do here, all the sacrifices made for me to have a better life is something that I sometimes forget to be grateful for. Love to my parents and respect to all the families out there who work so hard for their families and yet still manage to hide their struggles, pain and sorrows from the world.

    what a strong mindset, thank you for all your advices, I will change my bad behavior towards studying. My parents and grandparents also grew up and worked in china. My grandpa was like the only one in his city to repair watches, but although that he was quite poor, like the other people. he worked hard, and then in the 80's he flew to Italy to find opportunities, like most of Zhejiang people, and then they started a new life working very very hard, in a factory. My dad would go to school in the morning and work till night, having a little time for studying in a room where there were all the workers of the factory, a very small apartment. After that they earned some money and had the possibility to go to Milan, where they found better job, and gave me and my siblings a better starter point. tk you

    I agree that our generation needs to be more appreciative of what we have. Studying may be hard, but education is also a privilege, especially a good quality education as well as higher education (university/ college). I also don't think tiktok is helping in this category (obviously not just tik tok but its so easy to get caught up in that app). Specially, consumption culture and seeing video after video of people saying "look at this new thing I bought" or "you should try this" or "you cannot live without this XYZ."

    The fact that you brought up your grandma and how she wouldn't eat really got me. My grandma will only eat our leftovers and wait for us to finish and I never really knew why. Seeing this perspective really changed me dearly. So many other videos were telling me just to do it because you will be feel better but why? Thye never explained any background and it was all just repetitive and nothing really caught my attention. Thank you for sharing your family's story it really encourages me to take opportunities with the best of my abilities.

    Thank you, im 17 and currently procrastinating. I just feel really unmotivated to study despite having the goal of being a veterinarian one day. Ive bought a book from school in which i paid for, but havent been using it despite the purpose of needing to learn and educate myself. Just from watching this video, i can see i lack the discipline, persistence and focus. My mom always wanted to finish her studies, unfortunately, she doesnt have parents to support as her own mother left her and her siblings for a man and build a new family for and grew up with her grandma. Her life was hard, and did whatever opportunity she can to make money just to survive. Although she didn't finish her education, she was still really smart, meanwhile i have all these resources yet dont use them and waste my time just watching youtube. Although your story of your grandfather and your family isnt the same as the story of my mom, it does remind me of the story she told me and this video made me, i guess, in a way reflect on that, and the now im living in and the things im doing and not doing.
    To say, ill try my best, for me and my future. Honestly, even if its just a video to tell me and others to be motivated in a way and the gift of having access to education, youre like a friend reminding me on what i should do, despite not having friends (except one) and whats right and beneficial to me.
    Sorry for the yapping n shit, i honestly just feel tired, hope you dont mind the grammar and stuff, but i just felt like needing to let this out since its not often i talk to someone to talk about these things.
    Thank you Amy, youre like a friend to me, and again, ill try my best to study and atleast do some studying this evening, i appreciate you and this video alot.

Now i could just - ask him for his card to buy makeup n shi and he'd give it, knowing its gonna cost a lot - but he xan afford that now. Bought me 6000INR worth of stuff. One person can save an entire bloodline. But one can also destroy a bloodline. Tho we have a lot of money, i wont be able to live off it when im older. I HAVE to work hard - for me, my parents, and the future generations. My dad, despite not having complete education, got to such a high position w just hard work. Went from sleeping in a house w one room to a really big home. He is the reason im living my life. I have all resources - w the same hard work as him, i will get to such great, great lengths. He's an inspiration. Im 13 and im sure i'll make him n mum proud.

    my grandfather came to norcal in the 60s. he was an immigrant and one of only 3 punjabi farmers in my area. he built so much to the point they had so many orchards and were comfortable with money. came with under $20 to the US.
    him and my grandma would always lend money to anyone who needed it in our rural(at the time) town, without even asking it back. they would almost always get it back bc people were better back then.
    unfortunately in 2004, 2 weeks before i was born, he passed away. and with that my family/uncles sold off most the orchards in the family.
    to this day i always hear how amazing of a person he was and how hard he worked. this video made me sad because it made me realize im throwing an opportunity away. it really just is hard for me but in perspective i’m not doing enough.
    what did trickle down is the values, i know when someone is actually a good person within seconds of meeting them. i don’t want to be near anyone who is not. i am able to work hard work wise, but school has just become hard for me. i do hope i can find a balance as i never got to meet my grandfather, but while he was working i know he envisioned more for his grandkids. my dad was high school valedictorian and got his masters in electrical engineering from SDSU. i have big shoes to fill so it can be hard.
    I do like hearing other people’s stories though. Thank you for sharing yours

    Best video yet, (the 2nd is the motivational one about having disadvantages such as illness) This grounds me and I listen if I am lazy. I'm 32, with schizophrenia, just beginning a degree in psychology and counseling, I've never been to university before. I'm so grateful for the opportunities I have. I understand I need to be easy on myself if I am struggling. I spent 2 and a half years on an acute mental health ward followed by 7 years in supported living. I've done his and that since: work, study, gained qualifications. ANYONE can have a future, just persevere. Now my next stepping stone is once again being strong for this next chapter and higher level in my life. There are things in my past that took immense strength to keep going and build resilience, followed by periods of comfort zone. But now I'm ready... I will not stop moving forwards and being humble again. Challenges make you inspired. I'm definitely on an upwards spiral. Keep boosting people up Amy, I will not listen to any other study influencer. ps. you are so cool!!! :D

I am constantly reminded that i should work hard and i should be putting much effort because there are people out there that want to have what i have. That there are people that don't even have the basic need necessities and that i am privileged to have this and that i always should be putting in much much work. That is the mind set i had growing up and also the mind set i have. Having this in mind i started to study hard and worked hard but watching my peers do stuff that makes them happy and have an easy way in life always made me question myself. Like why do i work hard even though i know why. I started to question and doubt things and after some time, when my grades started to fall, and because i grew up thinking that academic success is my life and that's my purpose, and that i'll be worthless and useless to the family and that i am being a disgrace to my parents, when my grades started to fall apart, i started to fall apart myself. I started to question that... if academics is the purpose of my life and i hate it, then what happens when i finish school? what happens when i graduate? Why do i have to work hard when my peers are having fun and also doing better than me? Overthinking and anxiety started to kick in. I started to hate school, i started to hate life in general and i went to social media and started to watch "happy people" doing "happy stuff" and i get happy for a short while. It was until recently (i'm currently a second year in uni studying architecture) and i met this dude and we were in the same class in the first semester in first year and idek how he figured it out but he said that i need to change my mindset and that i have like.... like weights tied on me although i have developed so many skills that grew me stronger and that those weights are holding me back from me reaching my full potential but he didn't clearly say what was holding me back. I was holding me back this whole time thinking that i will never be enough and that i am not worthy at all if i don't succeed in academics. I was always undermining my efforts and achievements. While i think working hard is very important, not acknowledging what u have done so far is a bad thing. One thing i realized about myself is that i still worked hard even though it wasn't through all of my efforts, i still managed to be average. I still managed to have my head in the game and not to fall apart. All i want to say is that.... even though knowing that other people want what i have now and that i should be grateful and that academics is an opportunity that we have to use, people... for whoever who is reading this... please that academics is the end of your life. Academics is something that helps you to develop ur skills and to sharpen your tools not your purpose. It is something that HELPS you and that's why it is important. Always believe that you can do it and always put in an effort even if u don't think u can do it. It is what helped me to get to where i am. Stay strong and don't forget urself and other. Just like Amy said, education is an opportunity and we have to use it since things are literally under our fingertips :)

    I really found it more motivating than those tips trying to make study funnier. It makes me realize why I'm studying for , why I make all this effort . Thank you for your time making those videos, keep going.
