When you are so good at procrastinating, you watch videos on how to study
Brandon Evangelista hahaha yes 😂
😂 I swear I just JUST thought like this
Nailed it. I'm an expert at it.
Yuuup
😂😂😂😂😂
“When I take break, I don’t go on social media or UA-cam and watch random videos.” Me on my study break watching this UA-cam video. Oops. Lol
😂😂😂😂
To quote the creator in this video:
- Don't reward yourself with unhealthy habits.
- Don't think Studying is a barrier for fun and comfort (I am so this person)
Train your mind and body that, studying is making you a better person and promising better future.
So well said Jimmy! Thank you for this wonderful and impactful video.
Thank you❤️
I'm already a doctor, but still studying for exams since it never ends... (trying for the MCCQE1 this year). I admire the dedication you show. I wish I could have been like this when I was in medical school ;)
Best line: Studying is not a barrier to fun but its making you a better person.
True
7:13 This is so true, I'm an engineering student but I'm afraid of physics ever since I got bad grades in one of my high school exams and kept thinking I wasn't good at it even though it was just because I didn't prepare enough.
Me too.. but the moment you start being positive and actually put the work you will realize you can be the first in your class
Good luck 😍
Playing videogames in a healthy and proper way, can be a good reward. It works for me. I dont play often or everyday, but everyweek i try to enjoy few hours and destroy everything in Battlefield, CoH2 or even Red Dead R. 2! lol
Great video, doc.!
Your channel is hands down my best discovery of 2020. You clearly put a lot of thought and effort into all your videos, providing us with the best content we could ask for. You are so motivating and really pushing me to improve my study habits and overall my lifestyle. Thank you and don’t stop what you’re doing ❤️
On your last tip about properly rewarding yourself ... I've been rewarding myself with games and I didn't realize that I was essentially making my brain despise studying and telling me that studying keeps me from having fun. Now that you brought it up - it makes so much sense!! Do you have any suggestions on how I can integrate a proper study/fun balance? I'm kind of lost on how to properly execute this! Love your video :)
I would love if he did a video on this.
Yes I feel like all I do is study and go to work.
You could reward yourself by buying some stationaries (something you could afford and wouldn't strain your finances.)
Maybe instead of rewarding yourself with being able to play games, you could reward yourself with getting new games? Obviously wouldn't be able to do it every single session (unless you're rich lol) but maybe after reaching a certain goal. Or maybe make the reward something that pairs well with playing games, like a special drink or snack to go with it. Or just switching up the reward every time so it's something new so your brain doesn't associate it with any one specific thing, just that you get some kind of random reward.
Yeah what I find is that you just have to cut back on games regardless. Last month I was pulling 6 hour study days consistently for the entire month up until I resubbed to World of Warcraft. I tried to keep a balance and play 2 hours a day, but I wasn't strong enough I just spiraled out of control now this month I have a very hard time focusing even after I cancelled my sub. Your brain will always choose the fast and easy dopamine, instead of normal. TBF I always had a had time balancing these, so you might be different, but for me it's like training a dog. If you encourage a bad habit once, it will expect it the next time, so you just have to never encourage it.
After years of working on actual productivity solutions, and watching dozens of videos that unsuccessfully try to help this stuff, I can vouch that this is a genuinely excellent video. There is no magic bullet and this video covers a good range of the solutions.

I just discovered your channel. You have great, high quality, organized videos. I have learned a lot so far. Thank you very much, and keep up the good work brother.
Your videos are seriously helping me through my nursing program. I was so discouraged because I really want to become an NP after my BSN, but I felt overwhelmed! But you’re videos are such a blessing and so on time! Thank you so much! 🖤🖤🖤
YO this channel!! Tips for years!! I hit a wall studying tonight and randomly came across this channel. So glad I did, I feel more inspired and motivated. Keep posting for us 🤙🏾
About the most non-generic study tips that I’ve seen thus far!! Will refer to this video again later, been hitting a wall lately.
your reward system has got to be the most inspiring advice I've ever heard ^_^ amawing video, thank you very much!!
This video really presented new concepts to me (and I've watched a lot of things related to productivity already). It's clear that you have done this purposefully, with teaching something new as a goal.
Thank you for that. I'm subscribing in hope you continue to bring new things to my mind.
very well described i agree with everything
Another very helpful video. Thanks!!
I discovered your channel recently. Thank you so much for all the work you put on your videos! Love your study with me videos, helps me a lot😊 much love from Belgium.
Hey Jimmy! Really glad I found your channel. Just started Med school this summer and I’m just learning to adjust. Your videos are really valuable in helping me make sense of it all. Thanks and best of luck! Looking forward to seeing how your career unfolds!
The proper study mindset is where im having difficulties. I have fallen down the rabbit hole of self doubt. I can’t seem to pull myself out. You are so on the money on everything you said in the vid!
Really has motivated me! I have to start studying for NCLEX soon since I am graduating from nursing school, and your videos are just what I needed. Thank you!!!!
Good point! When you finish a hard work, for all the time you were alone, it's now the time to eat all the junk food! It happens to me! Thank you for your advise ;)
Hi Jimmy! What a lucky day for me that UA-cam recommends your video! Your advice is really helpful! I am excited to try them and apply it to my studying routine. Thank you for sharing and keep making videos. You got a new subscriber
Fellow 3rd yr Med student here, I usually don’t follow other Med student channels but I like your channel’s vibe! Keep going 👌🏽
so many good tips. i liked the rewards the best. first time i have heard this and realized something i have done at times when i was really good at something.
Your background music is brilliant.
You hit every nail on the head in regards to obstacles that I face while trying to study especially with comparing. Thank you so much for uploading these super helpful videos and inspiring other aspiring doctors like me! :)
This was really helpful - thank you for the tips. I have struggled with self doubt and procrastination this past 18 months trying to move forward with my dissertation. I appreciate the tips. Thank you for all that you do young man, you are an inspiration.
Great Video 👍🏻
Wow, just found your channel and it was exactly was I was looking for. It is so unique how you incorporate the hygge philosophy and the flow state of mind into studying, and every tip you give is so practical. Going into a research Master's, I was worried about my current productivity and organization level but with these videos, I feel much better prepared. Thank you!
