U r great work ma'm
10 books every student needs to read: the books from this semester
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Anyone feel like you've tried to limit your social media time since you been watching Thomas Frank vids? I know I have... It's hard especially because I used to look at Instagram first thing in the morning. Now, I try and listen to a ted talk or read something motivational. Much better!
Good change :)
same hea! I keep my phone on cold turkey as suggested by Frank way back whenever I hv d urge n oso hv bcum more productive ! Thanks Frank😊
wait there's a cold turkey app for phones as well?
Thomas Frank thanks!
Sounds like you're moving in the right direction. Keep it up, Josh! Small changes equal huge leaps in your lifestyle over a short amount of time.
I had to teach myself an insane amount of things to learn to learn.
1: Epiphany: Stressing about using your time on a useless task instead of something practical. We spend more time doing nothing than we actually do doing something. So I wanted to try some origami, but I thought that I could spend it on more important things. What? youtube? news? appetizer cooking. Nah you waste your time all the time.
2: Nothing: Doing nothing is harder than doing anything. Spend time to not think about anything, no schedule or timed work.
Getting a moment to empty your head and not have to worry about anything.
3: Self degradation: This is actually just my friends and class mates but I just feel people need to understand. Maturing and getting older DOES NOT MEAN BEING BUSY ALL THE GOD DAMN TIME!
Oh I have dinner to cook, go to work, study, go out with friends, go to this meeting with my friends, travel to this place etc.
It pisses me off that everybody intentionally try to make their entire life empty of free time and lie.
Some say to me they don't have time to stretch, meditate or do yoga. SO you're telling me you don't have 10 fucking minutes to do anything at all. Do you also have a planned schedule of when to go fuck yourself or when you're gonna die?
Oh no I can't, in 54 years i'm gonna be on my death bed so no I can't meet you then maybe some other time.
If you don't have at least 2 hours free then you're doing everything wrong.
4: Motivation: My mother was a teacher until she had a stroke, so she knows how to teach and she told me:
Even if you don't have any practical use in work for chemistry or advanced multiplication but it will sit in your subconscious and even when you're not using it, the way of thinking sticks and is used all the time and develop your way of thinking. It sticks in your head even if you don't directly do math. So learning anything means always gaining.
5: Vary and new things: You talk about habits and breaking cycles are a good way of getting better at your work. Do something new, play a new sport, do a new exercise, play a game of solitaire or something you haven't done before like my Origami. Doing the same thing over and over without varying isn't as efficient.
6: I have vacation days?! You mean I can leave anytime I want and not get yelled at over the phone?:
Another thing my mother taught me was a trick to prepare for tests. Don't study or work at all about it the day before the test.
If you leave it then you let your studies sink in and your brain will organize and memorize it. You knew jackshit during the tests and during lessons, but a year later you can recite the entire chapter at the back of your hand.
People study all the time before a test and stress over it. But it's better to not do anything than try to learn more. If college students were taught to do this it would be like the second coming of christ all over universities and colleges.
7: A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body "Soul Eater": As you said, exercise, and as I said, self degradation. When working it's best to have a calm mind and state, not interfering with any other thought and be in control of your self and your actions. By exercising you get your blood pumping, this in turn release adrenaline in the brain and makes the brain work. Same with food. eating good and feeling well promote productive mind set and a positive mind for thinking and thought.
Keeping yourself healthy and active promotes nothing but positive results. And if you are too busy to exercise or stretch as I said, then you're doing life wrong and must start over cause you messed up big time
You forgot your book! I read it before finals and I aced my exams. Seriously, thank you for all the amazing content! I am doing a double degree and you help me study more efficiently on a daily basis!

Just discovered you. I'm 57 and looking for encouraging and inspiring ways to enhance my daily life. Love the book choices and your other videos. We're all students of life, aren't we?
good phrase. You're right.
How're u now?
yep
Thanks for the book recommendations! They're unintentionally creating a reading habit for me.
I was reading Moonwalking with Einstein when I first watched this video a while back. I finished The Power of Habit today, and going to finish A Mind for Numbers by next week. I keep coming back to this video.
Love watching your videos man! So well made, so well prepared. You inspired me to start my own Canadian med student channel and I will be posting similar videos with a personal twist! Keep up the amazing work Thomas!
Awesome will check these out. Was just thinking about what to read over summer! Thanks dude
I like his tips, I like this channel, I like the way he speaks, I like his voice, I like his face, I like everything lol. Well done!!
Bruno Dýas same
so are you agirl
Just look at the mirror
gay spotted
Why are you gaaayyyyy!!!!!
Some of my favourite titles in there, thanks for the list. I must have read 'The Power of Habit' at least three times, its such a wealth of info.
Also found 'How to Be A Productivity Ninja' by Graham Allcott and 'Tools of Titans' by Tim Ferris to be great reads as well.
Thanks Thomas! Added a few to my to-read list. Gonna check out your podcast as well.
you always make worth videos to watch thomas frankie!keep it up.and the climax and the end of the video was awesome
Knaaaaaawledge.
Gotta earn dem Lamborghinis
first you need a "here in my garage"
Ruckus for the dollah dollah bills yo
lol
this is what i like a lot more than materialistic things
I know it's irrelevant but nice hairdo Frank!
Thanks!
Mr IY i was looking for this comment😸
Thomas Frank how are u growing your hair back? please do tell
Thomas is slowly morphing into Ray William Johnson.
COmpletely agree, he looks super handsome.
Thank you so much for all the great content you make. After changing majors I've felt super lost and the lack of motivation has affected my ability to concentrate. Your videos have brought me hope. I will make sure to get at least a couple of these books. Thank you again x
Loved your vídeo! Few of them I've seen in Portuguese, although I haven't read any of them, unfornutely. It's bever too late though. Just took a look at the titles of the other videos in your channel and as soon as I can I'll come back to watch all of them. Channels like yours are very important to people nowadays. I'm glad I found it.
Bliss & Blessings
*Instant brings up Goodreads*
Abi Marie good idea haha
Abi Marie how do you write like that?
charly 25 Put the lil stars around it *
*hi*
*nice thanks for the info*
yay now I have `10 more books to add to my reading list with over 100 books on it lol. Thanks for the awesome video Thomas!
great video. Thanks for all the recommendations
Loved your advice at the end!
Phew, I've been waiting for a video for ages. Thanks man, and all the best.
I published one last week as well! You can hit the bell if you want notifications - I'll be publishing a lot more frequently now that I have editing help :)
"Happiness actually comes from the fullfilment in the work itself, not in the external rewards." Love this phrase!
External rewards may be very appealing at first sight, but in your day to day life if you don't like what you do, what is the point?
In theory. Would the Chanel be the same with one tenth of subscribers?
Thomas Frank YOUR THE MAN! Your videos have impacted my life in such a deep level. I have made it a habit to watch one of your videos every day. Keep up the great work of inspiring and motivating others!
Thank you, Thomas! Your recommendations are very helpful!
Hi Thomas, Thank you for the amazing list! I recommend to you the book "How to Read a Book" from Mortimer Adler. Don't miss this classic!
I haven't read that one yet, but I want to :)
Recently got that in the mail. Can't wait to read it!!
Laura Marques Excelente livro
Laura Marques "how to read a book" , this book is very famous in china. "如何阅读一本书"
Hi Laura!
I recently started reading A Mind for Numbers, so when I read the title I predicted that you would mention it.
This guy truly is a great motivator. Just loved his suggestions . They were amazing reads.
Thank you ! Excellent list.
Notification squad! :D
Been waiting for the video haha.
Btw, this hairstyle suits you better Thomas :)
What did the librarian say to the child
*Read more*
Nice one bro
who else clicked on *read more* several times? 🤣🤣😂😂
@@tashabrown2359 me🤦🤷😹
I was clicking READ MORE for 5mins.Funk you dude.
I NEVERRRR PRESSSSS THESE BUT FOR SOME READON HAD TO PRESSS THIS
Thanks a lot for this list. I am going to begin with these soon!
Thank you so much! I'm excited to read them all throughout the summer ☺️
"The one thing" is also an amazing book on how to stress less and achieve more!
👏🏻One of my all time favorites 🎉
well the real question is:
Are there any dogs big enough to ride like horses?
Depends how tall you are
nils when I was little (I mean like 7 not like a toddler) we had a gigantic rescue Labrador. He was the size of a small pony.
Thank you for this list!! Hope you can make another list like this in the future!!
Thanks for this I'm always looking out for new books
If you're having trouble focusing, lay off the electronics.
I'd love to see a video covering gap years after high school and how to use them effectively for growth, improvement and learning on your own without someone leading the way for you!
Good idea! We're doing a podcast on that topic soon :)
Thomas Frank That would be really cool, thanks a lot!
Definitely one of my favor channels in UA-cam
and of course gonna buy some of these books...
Thanks Thomas for sharing these amazing collection :)
Thank you! Just added them to my list.
Possible dumb question: are these books just as valuable/relevant to non-students?
The ultimate book of them all is definitely Napoleon Hill's "Law of Success." This teaches you a hell of a lot about how the world works. After that, follow it up with Dale Carnegie's 'How to stop worrying and start living,' and 'How to win and influence people.'
Definitely 2 amazing options!! 🎉
Very nice! I actually started my channel dedicated doing book reviews! I put many of your books on my list to do reviews on. Thanks for sharing these!
I love your channel bro! you provide a lot of very useful advice and give a lot of great recommendations, keep up the great work!
Is the book "A Mind For Numbers" useful for actually making tactics about remembering stuff? I am a medical student and i create a lot of techniques for memorising, will this book help me increase it?
Thanks. 😊
Handsome, smart and organized, what a man!😍
Finished "Deep Work" and half way through "The Power of Habit". So far spot on with the recommendations! I enjoy listening to these on the commute home during the week! keep them coming!
Amazing video Thom! Valuable content. Great advising!
Might as well put "Thinking Fast and Slow" on there for people interested in Psychology and avoiding logical fallacies.
I love all of Cal Newports books! ❤️
Kristen Michelle good
Me too !
Thanks a lot Thomas.
I was introduced to your nice channel by this video, and such a nice introduction it was!
Post more and remember that I'll follow you!
Thanks a lot Thomas. Looks like a promising list
I can't even finish my school books...
Hello, I have a question about these books. I live in Turkey, my departmant is preschool education but I am studying with English which means that my teachers explain courses by using English. Well, is the language of these books hard or easy? Thanks
Türk buldum selam :) İngilizce seviyenle ilgili açıkçası. Eğer C seviyesi altındaysan zorlayabilir. Bu arada bu kitapların bazılarını youtube'dan bedavaya dinleyebilirsin.
DUDE, your new camera setup looks AMAZING! Thanks for the book list!
I have been studying English for a year and I really like your videos, because of the subtitles and because you speak clearly.
books, books, books...
I wish i was that wise!
loved that 5.5 😂
great list ! thanks for the vid
Watching your channel in the morning gives me a sense of momentum for productivity throughout the day, idk if that's true but hey it works
Hmm so if I want to break the habit of procrastinating, should I start with reading Hard Work, the Power of Habit or the Productivity Project?
Deep Work is much more specific about STAYING focused, so if that's your problem, read that first. If you have other procrastination problems, then maybe start with The Productivity Project.
Thomas Frank Thank you!! Love your videos :)
I was super sad then this video popped up, I hope these books can eleviate that feeling though
Desi Gaming same
Thank you for sharing!! I would definitely try those books!
Thank you for the lovely recommendations!
Thank you, I'm a paranoid 13 year old in 8th grade and I need to get my life straight before I'm old.

You are 16 now. How are you doing?
Nice video as always! You should be a professor of all of education lol
Wave Papi he should teach a college success course...... Which is an actual thing for freshman. It's a required freshman college course in Florida (I can't speak for certain about other states) . 😊

Seriously, your vids helped me a loooooooot. Thank you! God bless.
thank you so much for this ! I really want to get into reading more so I'll definitely be looking into the books you mentioned :D
and this is random but you/your hair looks nice in this video
Great book list, but I'd usually prefer to watch your synopses. I get bogged down by too much detail. People talk way too fucking much. I'd like to believe those authors don't, but I sincerely doubt it.
Fortunately we've got podcast episodes about a good number of these :)
Where the fuck is Harry Potter ;-;
Thank you! You help me stay in track and inspire me to do better.
Please keep doing what your doing. God bless.
Hey Thomas ! Thanks for the list . I was just looking for something like this .
Soooo anime club it is. ;)
Hey.. are you that werewolf death eater?

Lori Bino just as i can😎
People keep saying that (girls actually)....what am I missing? He is just average looking...
sapiosexual
Chess Master XXXXDDDDDDDD
Venor Maddox he's the brainy hunk type :p
downloaded an e-book from the link you shared.. thanks Tom.. u r doing a great job
Great video bro keep up the good work 👍
Funny how none of the books you propose can serve a student of real life insight or culture. These books are a result of someone's OPINION about a certain THEORY that treats just SOME aspects of PRODUCTIVE LIFE. How about you use your reach and power to promote real culture through books that can infuse people with emotions, dilemmas, opinions, a critical vision of the world or a sense of never conforming for just anything? There are literally thousands of real books waiting out there to be read and teach us lessons and you propose self-help trash. Sometimes I wonder what kind of culture American people really have.
ok if you have more suggestions, awesome! what are they?
Would you care to name Some of the books please?
Hey Thomas I just want to say thank you! Im finishing magna cumlaude in my mba. my 3yr journey in grad school you were there inspiring me and giving me tips on how to be a better student (a working student) whenever i feel lazy i just check out your videos and i get back on track. Thanks and more power to you! 😊
Thanks for the vids Thomas!
All these books sound awesome! Thank you!
Hi Thomas, I just want to say Thank you, because thanks to your videos/podcasts/book/etc etc I managed to become a better learner. I have been struggling for years because I was a quick and practical learner, but when I started medschool that wasn't enough. Thanks to your suggestions I found apps and methods to study better.
So again, many many maaany thanks :)
Thank you 🙇🙇 you got me all motivated and fired up for my next semester
Wow. Cool video. Thanks for making.
Your recommandations are so cool. I discovered your channel yesterday when I seeked about some motivational videoclips. I found your work here and I was astonished. Now I have another books that I really want to read which is awesome because I only read fiction. You are such an intelligent guy because your confident speech in front of camera made me wanted to try another sort of books. Keep up the smarter, not harder work!
