@@vaibhav_xd ngl same, I just sat consistently for only 1 day that i left the comment, and the rest of the days I've completely wasted. Feeling guilty asf but now I've decided to do better.

Nasty Moustache? No way man, it looks good! Finishing my exams for this year on Monday and Tuesday, they are quite important (GCSE mocks). Im not gonna be free on Sunday, so Saturday tmrw is my only shot to get the work done And by conincidence this comes out lol.

@@KoiAcademy The WHOLE Kitsune playlist is my favourite. All of the study hacks work for me! But my favourite video is A day in the life of a Kitsune. It was super relatable & I laughed a lot while watching that😆
Every line of this video is True and relatable. It is worth watching. When you said that CHATGPT simplifies things for better study, it is definitely truth. I have so much help from chat gpt understanding complex topics, real life examples. One of the best thing to know before studying anything to grow interest and hold focus is to KNOW WHY YOU'RE STUDYING, SPECIALLY REAL LIFE EXAMPLES. I have experienced that unless I know the real life application or example of something, I just can't grow interest in it. And where I can't grow interest, there how can I hold intense focus. So, KNOW REAL LIFE EXAMPLES, DIVE DEEPER INTO IT AND KNOW THE BIGGER PICTURE. Lastly Thank you Koi for this video. I have been following your channel for a long time, and the channel upgradation is really a game changer. The channel needed this upgrade. Well love your new contents more than old ones. THANKS A LOT. KEEP GOING & GOD BLESS YOU FOREVER.
@@KoiAcademy Maybe more to do with dopamine detoxing and ways to reduce cheap dopamine in everyday life? Either way, your content is amazing so thank you so much :)
Hello, as a student, I find your videos to be extremely useful, and I would like to know whether your study sessions are free or something. In other words, where can I join them?
My biggest challenge in life is not being able to exercise cause of time constraints or simply lack of motivation to get moving.. I always procrastinate on it.. I need help😮💨🙏🏼
This was a really helpful video man..! I like your content really appreciate it.. Sir can you please make a video on how to make a schedule and begin consistent... It's really hard for me to be consistent ..! Thank you..!✨
Personally I found turning off the internet essential for deep concentration. The whole point is eliminating distractions and interruptions, so centering your deep work routine around a social media app (which is designed to distract you, and forces you to remain online) seems to be making things unnecessarily difficult. At the same time, many people do find it helpful to have someone watching them while they work (and there are even companies built around the idea of pairing you with a random stranger who watches you work, LOL).
Seems to be a nice protocol but I have some questions. I don't quite understand if the **smaller tasks** that are mentioned supposed us to (eg: study biology, but define which Biology topics to study. (eg: Photosyntesis, cellular respiration)... And about the **what** is suppose (Eg: Goal study Biology - what is the goal? To learn about Photosyntesis and Cellular respiration). Am I right?
The goal is to specify as much as possible so you don't have to think about it during your study session! So, the what is the singular objective in your case studying biology but by defining it further you help clarify your goal for the session! So from just study biology to learning cellular respiration in biology would 10x your session because its less work for your brain! The actionable steps is something else that helps your what. How are you going to complete your goal, right? So to me it looks like smaller tasks and what is kind of the same thing.
Hey matty... I have been following self help videos for a year, and have also made a note of them. But the problem is I can't convince myself to look back upon them again and again. Please if u can help me❤❤❤
Hey Mike or Matty 👋 I want to complete atleast 5 mathematics lectures, each of 2 hours in one day but I also feel that it is beyond the realm of possibility. So how should my action plan be that I make realistic goals but still be able to do a lot of work 😮😮
I'd start my breaking down the goal and being realistic about what I can and cannot do. Next, start a focus session (or Pomodoro session)and cover the important topics then finish up with as many practice questions as possible. As you said, you can't do all of it it in a day so play smartly and focus on the important questions your professors or seniors have recommended you to do or go through practice questions and do the most asked questions.
Hey ! Can you please PLEASE PLEASE help ..... Like it's ongoing fight between my brain and body I know i need to study.... But my body just paralyzed i cant stop scrolling or get bavk to studies Like when i said this to my parents.... I got nothing but a mouthful I hope you can understand what i meant .... I wanna study and get my ass to medical College (2025 may gonna be my entrance exam) and I've alot to cover But my body i hate that Please help (And also i wanna study so bad so that i can buy study quest... That gonna be so helpful in medical College.... But now for entrance exam WHAT SHOULD I DO PLEASE HELP )!!!!!
To me this is a description of a process rather than actionable steps. I respect it says priming and accountability which are actions. I was just expecting more. Group sessions don’t work for many people - only way to know is to try, I immediately disliked it.
⏲DEEP WORK PROTOCOL ⏲ Step 1 PREPARATION need: clarity through one single goal -> point of focus what, when and how to reach the goal/objective need: accountability -> so you follow through Step 2 ENGAGE need: action and focus go through F O C U S at the start of the session F : familiar (a ritual before starting to prime) O: objective (be specific about what you will do) C: capture (capture any important stuff during your session -> get back to it later so you don’t get distracted) U: urgency (time limit) S: surroundings (get rid of distractions) Step 3 SUSTAIN need: to be aware of our focus seek to be in the sweet spot bored (make it more interesting, switch to something more challenging) overwhelmed (make it less tasking, easier, ask for help, switch to something else) how to notice: intrusive thoughts & negative emotions need: energy typical rhythm 90min focus, 20min break increase/uphold your energy through sleep, diet and exercise use study breaks to recover hope this helps you reach whatever you strive for 🌦🌈

@@Ranas-qm8vn thanks alot! this helped me out doing my own note taking
@@Ranas-qm8vnthanks
the new cajun koi style is looking awesome, keep it up!! really liking this content
Thanks, rookie! Do you have any topic recommendations? What would you like to see from future us? 🤔
I would really like to see a vid on how to manage multiple interests Mike or Matty 😊😊
" You have to notice it first before you can correct."
I love the sustaining method.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for the support! Have you tried it out? What are your thoughts on the method so far?
Step 1: Prepare
**single clear goal**
> pick one goal at a time and break it down
> task (3):
1. what: objective
2. when: schedule in cal
3. how: actions
> CLARITY = FOCUS
***accountability**
> ideally, public accountability - DISCORD
invite people for your deep work session
Step 2: Engage
Focus checklist
> Familiar: ritual to prime your brain
Ritual: cup of coffee/tea, spotify chill playlist, go through checklist
> Objective: get specific (from prepare step)
> Capture: notepad for floating thoughts
> Urgency: define time limit (90min)
> Surroundings: remove all distractions
Step 3: Sustain
endurance: how long before distraction
constantly keep your work in the engagement sweet spot
intrusive thoughts = off-kilter needle of "arousal"
energy:
exercise
diet
sleep

⏲DEEP WORK PROTOCOL ⏲
Step 1 PREPARATION
need: clarity
through one single goal -> point of focus
what, when and how to reach the goal/objective
need: accountability -> so you follow through
Step 2 ENGAGE
need: action and focus
go through F O C U S at the start of the session
F : familiar (a ritual before starting to prime)
O: objective (be specific about what you will do)
C: capture (capture any important stuff during your session -> get back to it later so you don’t get distracted)
U: urgency (time limit)
S: surroundings (get rid of distractions)
Step 3 SUSTAIN
need: to be aware of our focus
seek to be in the sweet spot
bored (make it more interesting, switch to something more challenging) overwhelmed (make it less tasking, easier, ask for help, switch to something else)
how to notice: intrusive thoughts & negative emotions
need: energy
typical rhythm 90min focus, 20min break
increase/uphold your energy through sleep, diet and exercise
use study breaks to recover
hope this helps you reach whatever you strive for 🌦🌈
Your video is awesome but very short video and too much information into it So it's hard to understand for me 😢
