I love that your views and priorities are healthy and your not saying like “work harder and have perfect grades”. But you actually value sleep and mental health. I really appreciate that!
Yes this channel actually saved my college life. My first semester was like a hell as an international student in korea. Then during the summer break, I found John's channel, now my college life is just much easier and happier.
Not really. He's sheltered to the hilt. Life in college is the easiest time in the world. Everything is systematized/organized there. He is a lifelong student. He knows this business well. He reads a lot of books. You cannot learn more from books that you can get from life experience far away from school. I'm finished with school. I like to watch his channel thinking, omg, this guy has got to quit reading so damn much, and get out more. He is not experimental enough in his life. There that's my post-college thoughts. He just happens to be good at prioritizing his time. He is disciplined. He's simply projecting the culture that he exists within as a student, and he is monetizing all of it through RUclips. Good idea! He's capitalizing on his ideas, essentially selling lifestyle/guidance advice. If he is so after enlightenment and personal growth, he has got to get out of that environment where everything is the same cookie cutter culture. Once you're out of college, if you travel outside of any prosperous socioeconomic realm, you will go through culture shock like nothing else that will disillusion everything you think you "learned" in college. Jumping directly into life without an instruction book is the best thing ever for wiring your brain's creative side. It would be fun to see him do something wild on this channel. Anything out of his element would be interesting. Just waiting for that to happen, if it ever does.
Sleep is incredibly important to retain information a.k.a. learning, and as such you need to sleep well to succeed in any academic endeavour (there are exceptions of course).
I'm in the second year of Information Engeneering, and at the beginning of this year it was hard to keep going. I can't even say for sure if was the University, or all the other things. But now, I see that was all of them, because they were unbalanced. Since then, I've been working on my organization, setting priorities, setting goals for my day, my week, my life. I started meditating and sharing my time with people that I really appreciate, I began to observe the beauty of the day by day, besides all the challenges that I had to deal with. Sleeping well, eating well, practicing exercises, studying, developing projects, sharing happiness with people. These things changed my life, in every possible way. And I'm really grateful for you Jhon, and all the other people that directly or indirectly helped me keep going and living my life as intense and happy that I'm capable to live. Evolve, be happy, peace ! 👊🤙
Summary: 1. Time management- Journal or google calendar, hour by hour schedule of the day along with to-dos and goals, at the end of the day write gratitude thought, google calendar for events. 2. Priorities- Having a real sense of all your priorities, broad activities you spend time on and then decide their importance, make adjustments, dedicating a minimal amount of time and energy on less important priorities, allows you to be ok with a negative outcome on things you spend less time on but get comfortable with. 3. Communication- Everyone involved in your life whether your friends, teachers, family want something from you (time, energy), effectively communicate, talk to people and tell them about your situation so hopefully the other side can understand us better, it is not a weakness.
It actually makes sense. I think the message that he his trying to say is refraining yourself from being too fixated with school that you tend to neglect yourself and your social life, which both are important aspects in life. It shouldn't be prioritizing school, it should be prioritizing yourself as you do school. Currently having a hard time doing that. lmao
i don't have a balanced life like you...i am literally spending most of my time on the books, making notes, solving Numerical... i usually get like 6 hours sleep....i am nailing every test but i am really stressed out...time to go easy on myself...thanks for the video btw.... subscribed!!!
Prabuddha Shrestha well I am focused on my academics and sleep around 6 hours a day but I’m not going to change it becuase it’s my priority to get good grades.Dont copy what he’s doing blindly,ask yourself do you really want to study less and get less marks?
It seems like a good idea ^-^ Some people need more sleep than others by default, so don't beat yourself up because you get the sleep you need. When your body is well rested you might even find that you learn faster/better ^-^ School is important surely, but even as a top priority it shouldn't overwhelm you so much that you don't take care of yourself properly!
You're right, one shouldn't adopt new behaviors without thinking them through a bit, to see it they fit them well. At the same time, health is not something you should compromise on for good grades, at least that's how I see it. Think about it, if you sleep well enough, you'll be rested and so you'll be able to learn faster and better. Then again, the amount of sleep people need differs from person to person, so you might be ok with sleeping that much, while for others it may be a very destructive thing to do.
I'm on the same boat as you prepping for NEET. I started prioritising the most important things like sleep and mental health and spending less time on books (making those 6 hrs of work really efficient) now my grades have actually improved, I'm able stay alert and observent during class and I retain more stuff. Spending less hours doesn't necessarily mean bad grades just use them wisely and be focused. I made these changes because I realized that this bad cycle is never gonna stop. Even after I get a medical seat I have to work my ass off anyhow.
The video was great. Awesome to have you back because you are an amazing inspiration. However as a disabled person(I walk with walking stick because there was a mistake made during surgery) I can't relate to some things that you say. It is much easier for a healthy person to do your university stuff, physical activities, social life etc. I do my best but sometimes the sadness of my situation overcomes me. I would like to ask you if you have any advice for me considering finding a balance between doing my best/hard work and also having a rest without becoming lazy. Also please keep up making your videos considering the topic of university and your personal growth because for a disabled guy like me it is one of the greatest inspirations I have in my life. Kind Regards!
I'm very sorry for your situation. Although, I think you can still translate those things to priorities of your own. Maybe substitute physical activities for a stimulating brain activity like chess or pool, or do yoga or what can help preserve your health. John mentions a book he read called "The subtle art of not giving a F*ck" and I think you could find the main purpose of that book very interesting (quick, easy read too). I can't imagine how hard it must be going through what you are, as I am obviously very grateful and lucky to have a relatively healthy body, but everyone has their own individual problems and in the end it comes down to our views of these problems and our response to them.
I’ve never had to deal with anything like that before and I’m so sorry that you do. That being said, it sounds like you’re being super self critical and maybe a bit neurotic about your situation. I can’t blame you, I get neurotic about mine for no reason. The key for me is to try to stay as closely tied to reality and the moment as possible. Don’t beat yourself up for not being able to work out: figure out how to apply your energy to something productive. And if you have no energy, rest. It’s not lazy if you need to rest, it’s normal and healthy. I think if you study and practice how to stay in the moment, it could be really beneficial to you.
MrPresidente98 I very much agree with all the previous comments. Accept who you are and shape your goals according to yourself; don’t hold on to your previous life but see your difficulties as challenges. It all depends on your response to life’s circumstances. Wish you all the best.
Hey dude i love your videos i am facing this problem these days which is procrastination I always procrastinate when I have to do some lengthy and time consuming subjects which results in me not at all studying for the test pls can you give me some times on how I can overcome procrastination
I struggled with this as well. The best thing I've found for me is to set many small goals. Say if I have a paper due in 3 weeks, I might make a specific goal to have a rough outline of the body and my research done by 2 weeks before the due date. You can even go more specific if it's a larger project and can set daily goals but the real key is holding yourself accountable and forcing yourself to do it. By the time your project is due you will have as a result spent more time on it which will hopefully mean a better outcome and it is less stressful than trying to finish it all last second. Hope this helps!
Fire gaming 2002 what I try to do to avoid procrastination is think to myself "will procrastination make me better?" And since the answer is always no it helps me not procrastinate because I know I'll feel guilty about it later
from your eye bags under your eyes, i am sure u got stress or lack amount of sleep but anyway u have succeed to balance almost everything and even managed to release new video on youtube. Great job bro , you have impressed me so much and always be my inspiration. Thank you
I don't stress the only time I actually stress is the night before an exam when I cram all the chapters I was supposed to learn weeks ago... somehow it works out (I'm a mechanical engineer student)
What astonished me is about your amount of sleep. 8 hrs !! It's hard to believe at first, but think about it, it could be happening if u master at managing and assessing time
Right now, I'm a freshman in high school. From watching your RUclips videos, I actually have bigger aspirations, like going to Harvard, because I actually think it's attainable. Your videos pretty much highlight everything I need to do to be successful, so I thank you for that.
I really do think like you John, I am studying with a scholarship at Argentina´s most expensive University. But I changed my priorities as you said, and I do acept the trade off of my grades, with my own chanl started and trying diferent things like entreperneuring! I really want to motivate people as I know you do, so thanks man! keep the hustle going, waiting for the next one!
Reading for 30 minutes each before going to bed and after waking up at 7 every day after watching your videos. Thank you John! You are a wonderful student!
I think you might consider changing your major or adding a philosophy/psychology minor. Rigorous training in these subjects can really straighten our thoughts up in a way that self-teach and reading can’t do.
I'm neither American nor Canadian but I always feel like most Canadians come off as less obnoxious than Americans do. Ok, except for Justin Bieber lmao.
Hi, John. I’m a university student, it gave me some helpful tips for my study after saw your video, but I still confuse how to make sure what is your desire, I haven’t motivation for preparing my IELTS test.
I can't use google calendar. I don't have internet access all the time and the internet where I live is so slow. Can I use a traditional calendar instead? I'm currently using a notebook to write the things I should do and all of my schedules.
Hey dude, I have troubles with time management and this REALLY helped. I was so unmotivated but this REALLY improved my motivation, so I got up and did my homework. Thanks man!
What if an activity is not my main priority (but still high enough in my priority order, eg. school) but I'm not good at it? I'll have to devote more time to it, right?
I guess you either take more time to get better, thus making it an even higher priority than it was before or leave it as is and accept that it's gonna take a bit more time to get there. Good luck with whatever you're trying to achieve! ^-^
There mught be some comments below the video that say against you. But anyway, I am with the majority of those who support you. The video about how you study really help me in my application season!! The communication and priority things are really motivated to me for they speak for me, who is trying to balance my application, social network, schoolwork, and the most important of all, mrelationship with my girlfriend and my family. I really need to have my priorities and do better at communication (to get empathy!). Though I think I need some time and effort to put the time management, setting priority, and communication into my real life, I will try my best.
You're so young yet you know so much. You've become one of my favorite channels to watch nowadays, you help keeping me motivated. Thanks for that John :)
I'm struggling in my school lately and now I embracing my flaws like failures not getting high score on quiz,exams and grade, at the same point i isolated everything that cause me distracted in studying even my communtion to others and yea you're right that its more harder to kept all alone hoping i can get through this. Thank you for sharing your experience and motivating me.
I’m Japanese and I learn English from your videos, then I use the phrase “long-distance relationship” to explain the relationship between I and my sister until I realized it now. 😢
THANK ALLAH I FOUND YOU BEFORE GETTING TOO DEEP IN COLLEGE MY LIFE WAS A SERIOUS MESS THE FIRST SEMESTER (only 1 semester deep) AND THEN CORONA HAPPENED AND OMG I WAS GOING INTO FINALS AND WAS ALREADY HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN AND MY SOCIAL LIFE WAS PRETTY MUCH INEXISTENT BUT THANK ALLAH I HAD THIS TIME TO REFLECT AND FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS😭😭 Alright imma stop yelling now😂😂 Ps I also study computer science but I study statistics with it as well :)) greetings from Sudan May Allah help us things aren't looking good in our country but we'll keep fighting إن شاء الله
Hey John, is international shipping available for your growth book? In other words please make international shipping available for your growth book. I live outside of the states..
Hello, I just wanted to suggest you to include the book ' Bhagavat Gita As It Is by AC bhaktivendanta Swami Prabhupad' in your one book per week challenge. Thanks you :)
I just started studying Econometrics and Operations Research, but i find myself having almost no free time at all. All i do is studying and i guess i am pretty slow at doing my math exercises and understanding it well. Any advice someone?
Could you explain in your thinking process what the difference between goals, and to-do's are in your notebook layout? Are your goals long lasting goals, or just goals for things that would be nice to do for the day. Based on some of the stuff I was able to make out visually in your goals from the video, it seems like it is the latter, of just being things that would be nice to do? Just curious what you do. I wanted to try out your planner process with my own daily routine. Thanks Mr. Fish! ~~D
What he has achieved: -done a coding internship at his junior year -is a Harvard comp sci major -has a youtube channel with almost 1 mil subs -sleeps 8-9 hours a night -Anything else?
Came across your video and I'm just wondering -- did you ever face peer pressure or pressure from anyone else when you decided to de-prioritize something and the consequences came through? For example, when you decided to de-prioritize school, did you face any reactions / peer pressure regarding your falling grades? How did you manage that bit?
I was a lazy student and now I'm on my last year of high school. I realized that what I'm doing is a waste so I nearly stop all of them and with a lot of doing your tips, I manage to catch up, but you know, my laziness consequences is still a consequences. I feel like I'm a stupid student even tho I'm sure I'm not that stupid if i study harder (I won Olympiad on biology at city branch, and I'm sure I can barely pass the national entrance, but yeah I failed cuz I'm lazy. bye bye to my golden ticket). And.. bang... my economic balance is messed up due to my father's death. So, if I wanted to get to college, I have to work (even tho I start RN, I still can't manage to earn money that much) or I have to get a scholarship. I can't really ask my mom for money, cuz shes struggling at the loan my father left. I wanted to study abroad, but the requirement is "outstanding performance at high school" and "excel in co-curricular", and I have neither of them. I just regret this a lot and blaming myself & the situation I'm currently in. I don't think I have enough time to catch up to the "outstanding" grade. Any suggestion, John? or anyone? Thank you.
Wow! So many things that I thought were bad habits are actually much more positive than I thought. Funny enough, the sponsor actually helped. Not that I used Chegg, but BOI do I need Slader for Math and Physics class! I thought it was bad that I’m using an answer key to get thru Calc and Physics, but in reality I couldn’t learn them any other way.
@Jeff Kha , it's fine as long as you understand the concequences. Everything in this world has advantages and disadvantages, so prioritizing something also has its own advantages and disadvantages. Make sure to weigh these out and make the best possible decision.
My mom saw me watching this and she said, why you watching it? You wont be seen in Harvard. Not in this life atleast. I'm like mom, what are you, Pewdiepies meme supplier?!
I never thought there would be more than some unitary construct describing intelligence across any array of cognitive tasks. It’s one of those ideas that died with my past. Teenagers today would think the ideas we had about intelligence in the early 90’s were rude. And so they were. And they were dream killers. My Int score was a lousy 12. Above average, but it’s still the kind of number you might like to increase.
I love that your views and priorities are healthy and your not saying like “work harder and have perfect grades”.
But you actually value sleep and mental health. I really appreciate that!
OMG YES! I feel like no one understands that!
I totally agree with you
Yes this channel actually saved my college life. My first semester was like a hell as an international student in korea. Then during the summer break, I found John's channel, now my college life is just much easier and happier.

8-9 hours of sleep A NIGHT?!?! GOD DAMMNN
I havent had that much sleep since the womb lol
LOL me as well

Uhh, I get 5-6 hours. By choice since I work full time and am in college
I get 8-9 minutes of sleep
Anyone else get really motivated by him?
Yes!!!!
No, just annoyed.
Yeah
I changed my life lol
Not really. He's sheltered to the hilt. Life in college is the easiest time in the world. Everything is systematized/organized there. He is a lifelong student. He knows this business well. He reads a lot of books. You cannot learn more from books that you can get from life experience far away from school. I'm finished with school. I like to watch his channel thinking, omg, this guy has got to quit reading so damn much, and get out more. He is not experimental enough in his life. There that's my post-college thoughts.
He just happens to be good at prioritizing his time. He is disciplined. He's simply projecting the culture that he exists within as a student, and he is monetizing all of it through RUclips. Good idea! He's capitalizing on his ideas, essentially selling lifestyle/guidance advice. If he is so after enlightenment and personal growth, he has got to get out of that environment where everything is the same cookie cutter culture. Once you're out of college, if you travel outside of any prosperous socioeconomic realm, you will go through culture shock like nothing else that will disillusion everything you think you "learned" in college. Jumping directly into life without an instruction book is the best thing ever for wiring your brain's creative side. It would be fun to see him do something wild on this channel. Anything out of his element would be interesting. Just waiting for that to happen, if it ever does.
me in high school: sleeps at the most 4 hours
guy at harvard: sleeps 8-9 hours
b e c a u s e u u p p l a y i n g f o r t n i t e
If he gets enough sleep he probably does his work more efficiently than a person who only slept 4 hours
Sleep is incredibly important to retain information a.k.a. learning, and as such you need to sleep well to succeed in any academic endeavour (there are exceptions of course).
@email 1 probably because you don’t do your homework until late at night.

But I changed my priorities as you said, and I do acept the trade off of my grades, with my own chanl started and trying diferent things like entreperneuring! I really want to motivate people as I know you do, so thanks man! keep the hustle going, waiting for the next one!
Dónde estudias?
Es mucho mejor la publica!
Creating balance can be really hard... but all of these tips and suggestions are super good! Thanks for the help! :)
Be conscious of the trade offs that you're making, the consequences of your priorities.
Good tip, Mr Fish.
Thanks for sharing this! Balance is difficult to achieve. Glass you are figuring it out and sharing with people
Reading for 30 minutes each before going to bed and after waking up at 7 every day after watching your videos. Thank you John! You are a wonderful student!

Hey John, have you ever looked into Jordan Peterson's book "12 Rules of life", if so what did you think?
john smith I loved that book!🙌🏼

I really feel like you can be the next happiness instructor at Harvard. Really inspired by your mindset over life.

Does he still go out with friends? What are his hobbies? Does he play any games like most guys of his age do? Or is school just his priority?
I think you might consider changing your major or adding a philosophy/psychology minor. Rigorous training in these subjects can really straighten our thoughts up in a way that self-teach and reading can’t do.
Hello , Harry Potter (of Harvard)
Watching this trying to balance everything at “Highschool”
Asking professors for help is really good, they have been through this and they do understand you.
I'm neither American nor Canadian but I always feel like most Canadians come off as less obnoxious than Americans do. Ok, except for Justin Bieber lmao.
Hi, John.
I’m a university student, it gave me some helpful tips for my study after saw your video, but I still confuse how to make sure what is your desire, I haven’t motivation for preparing my IELTS test.
U totally inspired me
I can't use google calendar. I don't have internet access all the time and the internet where I live is so slow. Can I use a traditional calendar instead? I'm currently using a notebook to write the things I should do and all of my schedules.
Hey dude, I have troubles with time management and this REALLY helped. I was so unmotivated but this REALLY improved my motivation, so I got up and did my homework. Thanks man!
What if an activity is not my main priority (but still high enough in my priority order, eg. school) but I'm not good at it? I'll have to devote more time to it, right?
I guess you either take more time to get better, thus making it an even higher priority than it was before or leave it as is and accept that it's gonna take a bit more time to get there. Good luck with whatever you're trying to achieve! ^-^
@@snowfox00 Thank you! ( :
I have no idea how to apply most of what you say to my life as a student in Brazil.
Yes!! Mental health is so much more valuable than grades.
There mught be some comments below the video that say against you. But anyway, I am with the majority of those who support you. The video about how you study really help me in my application season!! The communication and priority things are really motivated to me for they speak for me, who is trying to balance my application, social network, schoolwork, and the most important of all, mrelationship with my girlfriend and my family. I really need to have my priorities and do better at communication (to get empathy!). Though I think I need some time and effort to put the time management, setting priority, and communication into my real life, I will try my best.
You're so young yet you know so much. You've become one of my favorite channels to watch nowadays, you help keeping me motivated. Thanks for that John :)
damn, now I feel like I want college to start sooner, even though 1st year was exhausting. idk what to expect from 2nd year :(
what happens if you're one hr behind from a subject from your schedule book?
and u forget the sex
You should try the app ”Things 3” !

I'm struggling in my school lately and now I embracing my flaws like failures not getting high score on quiz,exams and grade, at the same point i isolated everything that cause me distracted in studying even my communtion to others and yea you're right that its more harder to kept all alone hoping i can get through this. Thank you for sharing your experience and motivating me.
What school do you go to again?
Harvard

Lunch at 11:30? Wtf?
I’m Japanese and I learn English from your videos, then I use the phrase “long-distance relationship” to explain the relationship between I and my sister until I realized it now. 😢
Your videos are so inspiring. I always feel like getting up and doing something useful after watching them. Good luck at Harvard!
THANK ALLAH I FOUND YOU BEFORE GETTING TOO DEEP IN COLLEGE
MY LIFE WAS A SERIOUS MESS THE FIRST SEMESTER (only 1 semester deep) AND THEN CORONA HAPPENED AND OMG I WAS GOING INTO FINALS AND WAS ALREADY HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN AND MY SOCIAL LIFE WAS PRETTY MUCH INEXISTENT BUT THANK ALLAH I HAD THIS TIME TO REFLECT AND FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS😭😭
Alright imma stop yelling now😂😂
Ps I also study computer science but I study statistics with it as well :)) greetings from Sudan
May Allah help us things aren't looking good in our country but we'll keep fighting إن شاء الله
OMG JOHN!!! YOU DRINK LOOSE LEAF TEA!! We’re like besties now🕺🏾☕️
The first few seconds are literally ASMR
Definitely working on the balancing techniques you've put forth.
Hey what is that thing you use to make tea? I want one
Growth Tea Brewer 😀😀😀
Hey John, is international shipping available for your growth book? In other words please make international shipping available for your growth book. I live outside of the states..
Hello, I just wanted to suggest you to include the book ' Bhagavat Gita As It Is by AC bhaktivendanta Swami Prabhupad' in your one book per week challenge. Thanks you :)
I just started studying Econometrics and Operations Research, but i find myself having almost no free time at all. All i do is studying and i guess i am pretty slow at doing my math exercises and understanding it well. Any advice someone?
Could you explain in your thinking process what the difference between goals, and to-do's are in your notebook layout? Are your goals long lasting goals, or just goals for things that would be nice to do for the day. Based on some of the stuff I was able to make out visually in your goals from the video, it seems like it is the latter, of just being things that would be nice to do? Just curious what you do. I wanted to try out your planner process with my own daily routine. Thanks Mr. Fish! ~~D
What he has achieved:
-done a coding internship at his junior year
-is a Harvard comp sci major
-has a youtube channel with almost 1 mil subs
-sleeps 8-9 hours a night
-Anything else?
Came across your video and I'm just wondering -- did you ever face peer pressure or pressure from anyone else when you decided to de-prioritize something and the consequences came through? For example, when you decided to de-prioritize school, did you face any reactions / peer pressure regarding your falling grades? How did you manage that bit?
I was a lazy student and now I'm on my last year of high school. I realized that what I'm doing is a waste so I nearly stop all of them and with a lot of doing your tips, I manage to catch up, but you know, my laziness consequences is still a consequences. I feel like I'm a stupid student even tho I'm sure I'm not that stupid if i study harder (I won Olympiad on biology at city branch, and I'm sure I can barely pass the national entrance, but yeah I failed cuz I'm lazy. bye bye to my golden ticket).
And.. bang... my economic balance is messed up due to my father's death. So, if I wanted to get to college, I have to work (even tho I start RN, I still can't manage to earn money that much) or I have to get a scholarship. I can't really ask my mom for money, cuz shes struggling at the loan my father left. I wanted to study abroad, but the requirement is "outstanding performance at high school" and "excel in co-curricular", and I have neither of them. I just regret this a lot and blaming myself & the situation I'm currently in. I don't think I have enough time to catch up to the "outstanding" grade. Any suggestion, John? or anyone? Thank you.
Wow! So many things that I thought were bad habits are actually much more positive than I thought. Funny enough, the sponsor actually helped. Not that I used Chegg, but BOI do I need Slader for Math and Physics class! I thought it was bad that I’m using an answer key to get thru Calc and Physics, but in reality I couldn’t learn them any other way.
what if school is my top priority?
Jeff Kha but safety is #1 priority
@Jeff Kha , it's fine as long as you understand the concequences. Everything in this world has advantages and disadvantages, so prioritizing something also has its own advantages and disadvantages. Make sure to weigh these out and make the best possible decision.
My mom saw me watching this and she said, why you watching it? You wont be seen in Harvard. Not in this life atleast.
I'm like mom, what are you, Pewdiepies meme supplier?!
Thanks for this, struggling with university right now so this was really helpful

I never thought there would be more than some unitary construct describing intelligence across any array of cognitive tasks. It’s one of those ideas that died with my past. Teenagers today would think the ideas we had about intelligence in the early 90’s were rude. And so they were. And they were dream killers. My Int score was a lousy 12. Above average, but it’s still the kind of number you might like to increase.
