    Isn't it totally ironic that 80% of the people who clicked on this video did so because they were distracted ? (me included)

    Tip number 9: watch Ruby because she'll motivate you to keep that hard work on

    Ruby, I’m a 30 years old medical graduate and I’ve been following you for two years now. I have to tell that I am so glad to witness you growing and turning into such a smart and mature woman. Please keep doing this great work of sharing your wisdom, and never let others discourage you. Thank you for your contribution to this world. - Lori

    I highly suggest watching the video because Ruby is amazing and explained it beautifully!
    1) Practise studying with background noises to prevent distractions in exams.
    2) Having a scent to study to like oils. Associate it with good quality revision.
    3) Put phone out of the room away. Out of easy reach.
    4) Make a note of things that distract you.
    5) Keep goals at hand to look at. Write goals on a list. A good distraction!
    6) Make a specific location dedicated for work or study.
    7) Have a nice homely friendly workspace. Invest in plants etc! Enjoy being in that space.
    8) Make a timetable so you can flick between things so you don’t get bored.

    Honestly, I've fallen into a little hole of procrastination, missing school for health and mental reasons and it was also a result of lack of motivation and losing my path and goals in life. These kind of videos allow me to gain temporary outer motivation and it makes me happy that I'm making plans for my studies as I watch your videos. So thank you for taking the time to do all of this Ruby!

    Dear Ruby: I am 29 years old and I have severe anxiety and depression. I've neglected so many things in my life due to these. I am always trying to improve myself, though. It's a big challenge. I found your channel because youtube recommended it. I am so incredibly grateful people like you exist. Your videos make me want to be even better and even more like you: disciplined, positive, centered and motivated. Thank you for being you.

  • @martm216
    @martm216 5 лет назад +2

    Especially agree about the phone!! A guy I once worked with when we were studying for accountancy exams, had a theory which went something like revising to a particular piece of music, preferably instrumental I think. You play the same piece over and over as you study. Then, in the exam, you play this piece of music over in your mind, and it helps to ignite your memory with the subject matter in question. That was his theory anyway . . . But yes, in general sounds and especially smells are very evocative for memory. Lovely video again, Ruby.

    What helps me is keep a post it or notepad near hand to jot down things that you remember that you should do/ remember/ want to look up. Because often we think: oh, yeah, I should do that now or I’ll forget. By writing it down it’s out of your head and you can’t forget. And it’s no longer an excuse!

I was wondering if you could possibly do a video on starting out studying and how to study for beginners because I know that lots of people will be in the same position as me where they have no idea where to start! It would be really helpful xxx

Ruby can you please recommend me few tips that will help me in my English writing e.g letter,essay and so on because I have to write a 2000 word expository essay and I have no idea how to go about it because in my country it's all about exam n teachers just focus on the easy things and the ones that students are going to write in their papers. Plz do read this and plz reply. It's a humble request. Have a productive week as well and stay calm and study like a Granger as you always do.

I also use the 305 rule (30 minuets of studying and then a 5 minute break) to get myself started then after a while I find myself not using the breaks and being super productive for longer than the 30 minutes.

      @studyaccount2160 5 лет назад +2

      How to motivate ? Have a goal . Why are you studying . And enjoy what you're studying . Every bit of it . Well some things will surely be tough and accept that and move ahead. Next time you will feel confident that you went through that and feel motivated to even do better . I think being motivated means feeling really authentic in what you're doing . And authencity comes from practicing that activity . Good luck

    • @plasticfrog4533
      @plasticfrog4533 5 лет назад +1

      @Study Account thank you 🙏, I find it often difficult, because I don’t really have a „dream job“ or a specific goal, I‘m 16 and for instance maths has gotten so abstract and far from reality. In general I want to study more, just my laziness is in the way. I watch study videos to inspire me, and they do help ... but not very long term unfortunately. I know that I have to get up and work, I know I should not be lazy, but I can’t find the energy and motivation to do so. I live in a small house, so I‘m almost never alone in a room and have to study at night, which doesn’t benefit my studies.
      I unfortunately also tend to look for excuses.
      Sorry for writing this long text, hugs to everyone that finished it 💕 ✌️
      I already kind of know the answer to my problem: overcome your laziness and STUDY, do it!
      It’s just so hard...

I am not thinking about which job I'll get . Which uni i will get (just kidding I worry about that a lot tbh... ) I am just focusing on increasing my grades. I am also not very motivated myself . But I try to . I hope things go in my favour .

      I actually spend a lot of my free time doing RUclips related bits, as wells as working on this magazine called Cosmologics which I'm an intern editor for.
      As Kathy rightly said, I spend a lot of time reading (and also writing!) and, as for societies, the two I am most committed to are Trampolining and Harry Potter society :) x
