    Best of luck on the med school exam! I’m studying for a selective entry exam for a school I want to get into and it’s coming up in only 25 days. I can’t focus on my topics for a long time, and I feel like I’m not absorbing the information I am studying. I have watched most of your recent videos covering this topic, but still can’t find the answer I’m looking for, although you provide excellent tips that are definitely worth watching.
    Is there anything I can do to improve my focus even more? Thanks for the great explanations as always.

    • @Salim_Ahmed
      @Salim_Ahmed  5 месяцев назад +2

      Thank you! If you can't focus for long, maybe it might help to actively set a timer every so often to remind yourself of what you just went through - so maybe every 15mins asking yourself ok what did i just do the past 15mins etc. This might break focus a bit, but it could help with remembering and realigning yourself with what you should be doing!

    AssalamAllaykum! Thank you again for an awesome vid! I have a problem with phone/RUclips addiction because I do a lot of productive stuff on my phone but then that leads to me wasting a lot of time on it as well. For example, I have Fajr Prayer at 3am where I live and I used to wake up consistently for it by using my phone alarms. But then I started staying up late watching RUclips after putting my alarm. When I started charging my phone in a different room I ended up either going to get my phone later or just making an excuse to keep the phone in my room. This is just an example but idk if you have a video or any tips about this?

    For me the most resistance is in the middle of the task so, because I hate studying, the 5 min rule and other things like minimising friction aren’t very helpful

    • @Salim_Ahmed
      @Salim_Ahmed  5 месяцев назад +2

      Yep I agree as I mentioned in the video, the 5 min rule isn't great as it feels a bit gimmicky!
      What makes you find it hard to focus in the middle of a task, though? So it's not hard/as hard for you to initiate a task as it is to keep it going?

      This for sure is one of the ways! But many still get distracted / lose focus even in the absence of their phones unfortunately.
      Definitely do agree with this though, especially will power increasing with discipline (which i mention as part of a point in the discipline video ahaha)
