6:00 I absolutely love that point about overwhelm with too much information. You’re not overwhelmed by fiction because the context and story comes so naturally to us. So doing a layering approach with learning starting with an organizational structure makes the details easier. This channel puts words to problems I’ve been having for years and then gives me the answers. Thank you.
Example: if you need to read a book , you can make a big picture of chapter of the book first to structure data and be able to go in random way read in the book
I do feel overwhelmed when it comes to pbsycial books but if it's digital I don't see how many pages I have left to read as a phsyical representation in my hands. 😅 I figured a way to make it less overwhelming over time though!

Man i came across your channle last night & u dont know how much you saved my live For my whole live i used to study by analyzing & Understanding & doing that subconsiously And i used to love learning +didnt ever took time to memorize just 10 - 20 min revising was eenough for the full mark After i get to med school every one was just memorizing word by word, letter by letter making me feel the pressure to do so And ooooooh all the hype about active recall & anki really got me..... At first it felt kinda good but less than month i felt Board & it does not deserve all the work & time. I hated studying & felt miserable So when i so u video it just make alot sense U saved me from being lost in that world forever Thank youuuuuuuuuu😔😔👏 Ur channle is a treasure
Thank you! As someone with ADHD studying much less staying focused is nearly impossible some days! The little details become overwhelming and make it hard to learn every little thing… and often I lose the big picture. Have been watching a ton of your videos trying to figure out how it all works before jumping into applying them to the IT courses. I gave up on mind maps the first time I tried it but am trying again due to your videos and techniques.. so far it’s helping retain the information from the videos and hopefully helps when studying for these next certification exams! I’ve taken these classes before but am overwhelmed trying to study for the certs but studying based on objective seems way more manageable than the mountain of content that is network+ or security +
I have ADHD too and my mom always made me study in a way so that I could regurgitate my notes word for word so that's how I've always learnt. It's impossible to continue learning like that now that I'm older and dealing with much more notes. I was worried that this wouldn't work for someone with ADHD but I'm happy to hear it worked out for you.
@Sarah Hodgins Oh yes, same. Writing by hand does help some things stick for me as well. Realistically though, I know it's not the most efficient way to get stuff to stick which is why I've been looking up better techniques (and stumbled across this channel). I'd love for it to work for me the way he describes so I'm going to give it a try but I don't think I can cut out notes in classes entirely yet. My ADHD makes it really hard to focus even generally speaking and my memory suffers because of it (since it's hard to retrieve info you were barely focusing on in the first place). Writing slows my mind down enough to jot down the important things and I'm worried that if I try to depend on my mind...which has been historically unreliable for memory and focus, I'll miss a bunch of important things in class and screw myself over. It doesn't help that we don't often get slides or notes before or after class. We have to depend on the notes we take. If I just do doodles, I have nothing to fall back on and I can't even be sure that I'll remember what my mind map means. I agree, key words in a mind map might be better to start with. Maybe I'll test it out on something low stakes like a Udemy class or a text book. I don't think I trust my mind enough for a lecture.
wonderful insights as always. You sir, you gave me this feeling for the first time in 3 years of researching how to learn: I feel like I cracked the code of learning! I am now a learning machine, making mind maps with colours and pictures of any concept that I want to understand. I even have used this concept succesfully when I felt overwhelmed by traumatic feelings, thoughts and existential threats. Just by organising this, I feel like I can give it a rest and I feel relieved. I get a perspective that is much more liveable for me, then the intense thoughts and feelings that get disproportional big in my impressionable brain
Hi Jason, all... I wanted to let you know that I used this technique right before a Sociology final. I was overwhelmed due to the course's lack of cohesive presentation of information. After using this technique, I received an A on the final. This technique IS truly effective and even though I utilized it backwards, it tied together all the info I had painfully previously studied. Next quarter, I will use this technique at the BEGINNING of my courses. Very exciting stuff! Hi! from the University of California at San Diego, CA, USA! You are my hero! :)
As an adult with ADHD this is kinda how i approach any large task. I hate taking notes or even writing things down. I usually skim multiple sources and materials simultaneously simply due to boredom or the inability to stay on one task for too long. By doing this I naturally start to see patterns and connections between topics. Then later all the small details are easier to remember! Your video help me refine my process from haphazard to a little more purposefully. Thanks!!
Organization Structure - make theories on topics/how are they going to relate, and how youre going to use it Syntopical reading: - read & compare two sources (textbook and article), keywords, headings, perspective, etc
Luckily youtube recommended ur channel today doctor. Thank u for this valuable info sir.. um studying biology n hoping to be a doctor... Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️
Don't compare your 2. chapter to someone elses 20. You might think your story is not good enough but it is not over yet. *Keep dreaming and putting in the work. I believe in you...*
I've been watching some of the material on the channel and other interviews. This is the 1st lecture I agree with what you teach. Especially the "why" is this important which is a huuuge gap in university teaching. I don't understand a word instructors say because of the "why" gap in lectures. They get pissed when I ask these questions and have no clue how to answer them. It sucks because I have to keep quiet in order not to make them mad when I'm trying to learn. Great job Justin 👏
I’d like to see you go through explaining one of your chunk maps. Explaining what you wrote down and why and how the concepts relate so we can get a better example of how we might think about the topics at higher level, instead of just seeing that it’s simpler. Thank you. I appreciate you very much.
Man, I'm on my first year of biology bachelor and priming really helps to understand the topic, although I spend quite a lot of time on it because I like to understand the details or else I feel like I have and half assed understanding on it;
This is such an interesting approach to study. The traditional method doesn't work for me as I have ADHD and reading a bunch of texts without making the connections beforehand is almost useless. Thanks for the knowledge.
This is very useful information. I really need to start learning like this. I have about a month of free time. I will try this. It’s going to be very unusual for me, and I’ll probably procrastinate, like I do now. I can’t even get myself to read something for an hour. But I’ll try my best to start learning like this, and try to keep as much information in my head before dumping it on a mindmap. I still need to watch the mindmap video and some others, because I haven’t watched them or need to watch it again. I really want to enroll your course, but of course I can’t afford it. Thank you for the videos. :)
Hey, I just started doing the course. I want to give you a few tips from just the very first lessons I went through plus some of my personal thoughts! When you scedule: 1. Think of the difference between sceduling your *time* and sceduling your *tasks.* It's better to make sure you're using your time intentionally, i.e. scedule tasks rather than time, rather then boxing yourself in with rigid time scedules. It's just a different focus. And 2. Think of the difference between *importance* and *urgency.* If we keep prioritizing urgency over importance when we scedule, we will keep getting tasks done which are urgent but not the ones that are important. If we turn this around and prioritize importance over urgency we are doing things ultimately more benefitial in the long run and probably scaling our skills so that the urgent things become more managable in the future. While aiming to improve: Marginal gains are not to be underestimated! Treat marginal gains as compound interest. Find things that you can apply to many areas, many subjects, and become marginally better at them every week. There are plenty of transferrable skills you can look into or even think on the spot, I'm sure. When trying to study like Justin teaches even though you're not in the course: Focus on better encoding. What can you do so you retain more the first time you truly study. Things like pre-studying and doing a mind map can surely help. Even if you do them badly, if you do them you'll probably still benefit more than you'd benefit from traditional notes and re-reading. Also, while you study ask yourself specific questions which inquire about the relationship between things and why they are relevant. Embrace cognitive load which comes with a feeling of confusion and difficulty. These all help for more effective encoding. Then when you do spaced repetition you need to do it less because you've forgotten much less than you usually would! I really hope these tips help. I've always been the person not able to afford things and I know what that feels like. Also, you can join the discord! Some channels are for course memebers only but still lots of interaction opportunities. My username on the Discord is Essen, feel free to ask me anything.

What I learned : syntopical way of priming First establish flow from previous knowledge to add layer upon them Being able to control when u are ready to receive certain type of information
Thank you for showing us your way of priming, it was very interesting and I'm curious to try it out. And I'd really like to see your final chunk map and the explanation on the process behind it!
Building an organizational structure is a crucial step in effective learning. By organizing information and understanding its importance, learners are better equipped to engage in discussions and retain knowledge. Spending time on priming and organization pays off in the long run compared to simply creating flashcards. The transcript highlights the process of building an organizational structure for a specific topic and emphasizes the benefits of higher-order learning. The speaker explains the importance of thinking about why information is important and how it relates to other concepts. By leveraging sin-topical learning and reading multiple sources simultaneously, learners can develop a holistic understanding of a topic. The transcript also mentions the benefits of managing cognitive load and the role of discomfort in the learning process. The speaker encourages learners to practice these techniques and offers a course for further guidance.
I try and apply your methods and insights into learning pieces on the piano. There’s a difference between academic and skill learning but some of it is transferable. Thankyou. London
Sounds like you should read the table of contents to get a structure, then look at the chapters and do the same in order to generate questions and curiosity, then when you do read, the information will be absorbed and retained much faster.
In my degree of economics I used to do mind maps with a entity-relationship model (ER). For me is, maybe, the best way to do mindmaps. You can connect with logic every topic and ideas
Just watching your UA-cam vids have helped me so much. I have never felt like this studying before. I genuinely enjoy it I find comfort in learning honestly. And once I will have the money to buy the course I will buy it too. Because I can see how thats gonna help me in future.
I also think think the Blooms taxonomy can be used as a check list in therapy. Did the client understand or even remember what we talk about last time, did they apply any of the knowleg (do there homework). Are they learning to analyze their life, are their attributions for their problems changing. Are they better evaluating there previous implicit theory's about the world and themselves with the knowledge they have gained. And finally, are the intentionaly creating a better life - generating hypothesis about an alternative way of living, planing actionable steps, and acting on them. First with the help of the therapist then later on as thing progresses are they doing it more independently . So again I think that learning to think in a complex and balances ways about things in school can help you in the longe run with your personal life. If you gravitate towards higher order learning you will gravitate to a higher order life.
I'm a CS student and I'd love to know how your techniques can be applied in subjects like Calculus, Algebra, Network, Programming,... It would be great if you can do a demonstration video on those subjects.
Such an interesting video and channel. I wish you could show your method applied to Medicine in a video, since I feel like it's not as important to figure out an order and structure, since it's kind of pre-made in subjects like Pathology, where each disease has its method of diagnosis, its sypmtoms, its treatment, etc. The structure is always the same, and that makes it, paradoxically, kinda difficult to apply parts of this method, at least to me
But within symptoms, treatments, diagnosis etc. you can find more chunks and groups. Just keep breaking it into pieces. Although some of this stuff probably has an exact method you follow every time and so that probably would have to be memorised.
Your videos are very informative and helpful for us and I am inspired by your speaking skill you speak like English native but How How??? You make some videos on spoken English skills and give some tips and methods on how we can improve it. Thank you
Justin can you please make a video for doctors specifially USMLE or other competitive exams . Here you have learn fast and Space repetition is necessary!
Justin I think a video on how and when to study the most nitty gritty details of topics would be really helpful. Like when I'm studying something like biology in my 11ths, there's like loads and stacks of important detailed information, and I'm not sure how to deal with that
First of all, LOVE your videos!!!!! Wish I came across your content sooner. Will ll definitely be giving your methods a go. I would love to see how the mind map turns out at the end of your study session.
I am triple vaxxed, I am diabetic, and I detest needles! Put that on top of being non-neurotepycal (ASD, ADHD and OCD, along with sensory processing disorder) and I have a lot of anxiety about dentists and hospitals, etc. I also have sympathy pain, which put studying to be a nurse or doctor out of the question for me. I am in your course (End of nov 2021), and just trying to wrap my head how to prestudy with articles. But I am still in fundamentals 1, so I have a ways to go to get to the prestudy techniques. Thanks for the video!
This is Cognitive science, the interdisciplinary, scientific study of the mind and its processes with input from linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, computer science, and anthropology. Wikipedia
I feel like this is how I spoke in elementary school after learning that all animals and ecosystems are connected. When I learned things it made me think of other things, so it seemed difficult to forget things as it was all "stuck" to other information.

It's like the read everything 3-4 times technique: 1. go over it to get the overall idea/structure and 2. start asking the right questions for you: why do I want to read this, who much time do I want to spend to this, how is this relevant to my life, who is this author, where does this come from and where does it want me to move to 3. dive into it and look for the answers/start making anki-cards. 4. Start memorizing it - optimize: get rid of stuff that's seemed important in the beginning but after a few months you see that it is not really that important in your life.
Might you just probably giv some advice about language learning？ Thank you so much if you hear me. I have to say these methods you mentioned before are absolutely effective and useful but sometimes they don't work for language learning.
Well, thinking about chunks or grouping: I find it is easier to learn a new language, if you chunk vocabulary into a context/a story eg what items do you find in a living room, which verbs do you need to form activities into a sentence (like "watching TV lying on the sofa") or even a short story. Which adjectives describe a noun, eg a juicy, sweet mango, a sour lemon. Where are adjectives positioned, in front or behind a noun.... I personally want to understand a language through grammar as it provides an immediate structure. So following higher order learning (in my interpretation) I would want to know which tense do I need in that language to express an activity in a specific time frame. For example in colloquial German the perfect tense is used for activities in the near past, while in English you would use past tense. This way you discover similarities and differences between two languages or between the different tenses within that language. Then you continue with how these different tenses are formed. And if you contemplate these formations from a higher order, they won't be so daunting. The more advanced you get, the easier you will be able to detect mistakes you've been making. But the most important method for ME is to learn through engaging or immersing yourself into that language. Even from the first words and sentences, I try to immediately apply them or think about them. Hope this helps somewhat?
Enjoyed 5uis video really explains the difference between seasons I have struggled with and others where I have found learning flows, because I haven't looked at ho2 best to learn it thank you.
I'm 4th yr medical student in my first 2 yrs I was relying on active recall and I did just fine but now and with the amounts of material that should be consumed that method isn't as effective because I don't have much time so I'm burned out and struggling and I even failed some exams 😥 And I get this feeling of just giving up Wish if I could join ur course, I believe it would be a life changer
Forgive my non-adherence to the conventions of the English language as I am regrettably, not a native speaker of this language, however, I want to express that, Honestly, I love your videos, I may not understand everything, but I just hope the tests in my next school will be based more on understanding the things conceptually than just having to learn facts by heart for every test... I am very interested in learning so I like your videos, but since I am not that old and my English level is still not completely fluent but just at around almost native level speaking, I will eventually come to your videos, when I actually need them for school, now I just attempt to use higher-order learning and in the end, I just learn the things by heart, I am not really reviewing my material, but since I am also learning a new language by myself daily since one and a half years, memorizing things has generally become way easier for me... However when I try to learn it conceptually I just overcomplicate the topic thinking that this is a key component and this is but in reality I just literally learn everything, so I need to refine my critical judgement more in the future too...
Is the background music added to emphasize particular points? Or is it just adding extraneous cognitive load? I ask because I heard the music ca. 1:00, thought "Ack. I hate that. It is so annoying." And then the music stopped (thankfully)! Different music starts again at 02:15, but sadly doesn't stop. I would suggest Justin Sung drop the background music so the listener can concentrate on your otherwise useful and well-developed content.
Hi, Justin! Any tips on how to build this mental structure that will translate into the chunk map when consuming audio/video content, when you have little (if any) written material to support it? Thanks and keep up the content! 💪
I would like to see how you or someone from your team would handle a math learning session. It is a subject that is necessarily linear in many aspects since many are built on top of one another. It is true that some topics can be learned in a different order than taught in school, but some can't. It is also a topic that requires learning concepts and then practicing using those concepts with various types of problems. Another good video would be handling a technical subject like networking - also requiring an understanding of concepts, but then a practical knowledge when you physically set up a network.
Yeah, I’m wondering about that as well. I tried doing this with maths the other day and I struggled with it. It’s not as conceptual as, say, CogSci or the natural sciences and as such it requires a different approach.
I aouls argue their is concept that under lies thw working of things in math. Often time that concept however comes after you learn the specific thing which is kinda annoying xD and text books aren't really set up with concept in mind. Good ones have writen examples the nicely illustrates the case in a real world setting
@@nuwang2381 Yes. For many skill based concepts you learn how first, then understand why later after much practice. Of course you can still be told the why first, even you won't fully appreciate it until you have practiced many hours. I would like to see how Justin or his team handle this type of subject since they are expert learners. Maybe approach it exactly the same way.
@@dsterry74 Me too man me too. Math is really trippy cause it's like their are some people who learn math and understand the underlying reason for doing certain things and others just hammer through practice set's while not thinking about what is going on in the question. I think this might be applicable to math up until the highschool level only if the proper resources are provided. The text books in my school don't provide much explanation for anything really and the ability to nail the concept in extremely difficult. Something like collage algebra from Blitzer or pre calc from Blitzer outlines things with an illustration of concept first before diving into the acutal math which is really helpful.
@@nuwang2381 I was thinking similarly about it up to highschool. After Calculus, it looks like there many directions you can go topically without anything more than Calculus, unless you want to dive deep of course. Even before Calculus (or in conjunction with it) there is some wiggle room for exploration.
try to ask yourself the correlation of the questions or lessons being shown to you. ask yourself how do they correlate & how to apply them to one another such as legos & wiring. Anatomy, words can overlap through bones, muscle, region & physiology can add through that
Can we still try to use these techniques and find that they work, without taking the course? Because I don’t think I will be able to pay for and participate in the course, but I really want to use these more effective study techniques.
If you’re not making flashcards, what are you using to use recall later on? I understand active recall is less necessary when you are learning things the first time in higher order learning, but you have said you still need active recall, just a lot less. So how do you do that?
Hi, could you please link some of the papers or resources regarding the learning techniques you mention in your videos? I know there are a lot of them about Active Recalling and Spaced Repetition but I struggle to find the ones linked to concepts like higher-order concepts, chunking etc. Thanks!

Sin topical reading:
- Read various sources at the same time to have more profound view of the topic
- Use the recursive and excursive properties of learning
High order learning:
- Evaluate, creat, theorise, generalise, hypothesise, reflect
- Start with high order learning and low order learning will come naturally

What is synotypical learning
@@user-yi4mt4hp8u let's break it down
Syn meaning synchronous
Topical meaning referring to topics.
Therefore synchronous topics.
It just means learning something while learning something else.
For example learning about numbers while also learning addition and subtraction.
The idea is to create a context for the information you are learning and deepen your understanding of it's importance within that subject. In this case, maths

Prestudying is a pretty interesting concept. I like the idea of "layers of learning"
Bro you are everywhere. Strong the grind is in this one.
Man i came across your channle last night & u dont know how much you saved my live
For my whole live i used to study by analyzing & Understanding & doing that subconsiously
And i used to love learning +didnt ever took time to memorize just 10 - 20 min revising was eenough for the full mark
After i get to med school every one was just memorizing word by word, letter by letter making me feel the pressure to do so
And ooooooh all the hype about active recall & anki really got me..... At first it felt kinda good but less than month i felt Board & it does not deserve all the work &
time. I hated studying & felt miserable
So when i so u video it just make alot sense
U saved me from being lost in that world forever
Thank youuuuuuuuuu😔😔👏
Ur channle is a treasure
Thank you! As someone with ADHD studying much less staying focused is nearly impossible some days! The little details become overwhelming and make it hard to learn every little thing… and often I lose the big picture. Have been watching a ton of your videos trying to figure out how it all works before jumping into applying them to the IT courses. I gave up on mind maps the first time I tried it but am trying again due to your videos and techniques.. so far it’s helping retain the information from the videos and hopefully helps when studying for these next certification exams! I’ve taken these classes before but am overwhelmed trying to study for the certs but studying based on objective seems way more manageable than the mountain of content that is network+ or security +
@Sarah Hodgins ditto! Repetition learning has always made learning difficult
I have ADHD too and my mom always made me study in a way so that I could regurgitate my notes word for word so that's how I've always learnt. It's impossible to continue learning like that now that I'm older and dealing with much more notes. I was worried that this wouldn't work for someone with ADHD but I'm happy to hear it worked out for you.
@Sarah Hodgins Oh yes, same. Writing by hand does help some things stick for me as well. Realistically though, I know it's not the most efficient way to get stuff to stick which is why I've been looking up better techniques (and stumbled across this channel). I'd love for it to work for me the way he describes so I'm going to give it a try but I don't think I can cut out notes in classes entirely yet.
My ADHD makes it really hard to focus even generally speaking and my memory suffers because of it (since it's hard to retrieve info you were barely focusing on in the first place). Writing slows my mind down enough to jot down the important things and I'm worried that if I try to depend on my mind...which has been historically unreliable for memory and focus, I'll miss a bunch of important things in class and screw myself over. It doesn't help that we don't often get slides or notes before or after class. We have to depend on the notes we take. If I just do doodles, I have nothing to fall back on and I can't even be sure that I'll remember what my mind map means. I agree, key words in a mind map might be better to start with.
Maybe I'll test it out on something low stakes like a Udemy class or a text book. I don't think I trust my mind enough for a lecture.
@Sarah Hodgins Good luck on your classes! I'm going to test them out too.

You sir, you gave me this feeling for the first time in 3 years of researching how to learn: I feel like I cracked the code of learning! I am now a learning machine, making mind maps with colours and pictures of any concept that I want to understand.
I even have used this concept succesfully when I felt overwhelmed by traumatic feelings, thoughts and existential threats.
Just by organising this, I feel like I can give it a rest and I feel relieved.
I get a perspective that is much more liveable for me, then the intense thoughts and feelings that get disproportional big in my impressionable brain
@Sarah Hodgins I am also curious..
Hi Jason, all... I wanted to let you know that I used this technique right before a Sociology final. I was overwhelmed due to the course's lack of cohesive presentation of information. After using this technique, I received an A on the final. This technique IS truly effective and even though I utilized it backwards, it tied together all the info I had painfully previously studied. Next quarter, I will use this technique at the BEGINNING of my courses. Very exciting stuff! Hi! from the University of California at San Diego, CA, USA! You are my hero! :)
As an adult with ADHD this is kinda how i approach any large task. I hate taking notes or even writing things down. I usually skim multiple sources and materials simultaneously simply due to boredom or the inability to stay on one task for too long. By doing this I naturally start to see patterns and connections between topics. Then later all the small details are easier to remember! Your video help me refine my process from haphazard to a little more purposefully. Thanks!!
Organization Structure
- make theories on topics/how are they going to relate, and how youre going to use it
Syntopical reading:
- read & compare two sources (textbook and article), keywords, headings, perspective, etc
When i rewatched your video after some time i got to learn new stuff which i don't learn previously.
Luckily youtube recommended ur channel today doctor. Thank u for this valuable info sir.. um studying biology n hoping to be a doctor... Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️

Don't compare your 2. chapter to someone elses 20. You might think your story is not good enough but it is not over yet. *Keep dreaming and putting in the work. I believe in you...*
I've been watching some of the material on the channel and other interviews. This is the 1st lecture I agree with what you teach. Especially the "why" is this important which is a huuuge gap in university teaching. I don't understand a word instructors say because of the "why" gap in lectures. They get pissed when I ask these questions and have no clue how to answer them. It sucks because I have to keep quiet in order not to make them mad when I'm trying to learn. Great job Justin 👏
UA-cam recommended me your video yesterday and after watching just one video I was satisfied enough to subscribe immediately.
I’d like to see you go through explaining one of your chunk maps. Explaining what you wrote down and why and how the concepts relate so we can get a better example of how we might think about the topics at higher level, instead of just seeing that it’s simpler. Thank you. I appreciate you very much.
i watched the video in 2x, to spend 1/2 hours studying and saved 40 hours
i watched at 4x speed and spent 15 minutes and saved 80 hours
Man, I'm on my first year of biology bachelor and priming really helps to understand the topic, although I spend quite a lot of time on it because I like to understand the details or else I feel like I have and half assed understanding on it;
Hello for this helpful tips, just want you to know the backgroud music is distracting.
This is such an interesting approach to study. The traditional method doesn't work for me as I have ADHD and reading a bunch of texts without making the connections beforehand is almost useless. Thanks for the knowledge.
Non linear
Not learn but relate group

This is very useful information. I really need to start learning like this. I have about a month of free time. I will try this. It’s going to be very unusual for me, and I’ll probably procrastinate, like I do now. I can’t even get myself to read something for an hour. But I’ll try my best to start learning like this, and try to keep as much information in my head before dumping it on a mindmap.
I still need to watch the mindmap video and some others, because I haven’t watched them or need to watch it again.
I really want to enroll your course, but of course I can’t afford it.
Thank you for the videos. :)
Hey, I just started doing the course. I want to give you a few tips from just the very first lessons I went through plus some of my personal thoughts!
When you scedule: 1. Think of the difference between sceduling your *time* and sceduling your *tasks.* It's better to make sure you're using your time intentionally, i.e. scedule tasks rather than time, rather then boxing yourself in with rigid time scedules. It's just a different focus. And 2. Think of the difference between *importance* and *urgency.* If we keep prioritizing urgency over importance when we scedule, we will keep getting tasks done which are urgent but not the ones that are important. If we turn this around and prioritize importance over urgency we are doing things ultimately more benefitial in the long run and probably scaling our skills so that the urgent things become more managable in the future.
While aiming to improve: Marginal gains are not to be underestimated! Treat marginal gains as compound interest. Find things that you can apply to many areas, many subjects, and become marginally better at them every week. There are plenty of transferrable skills you can look into or even think on the spot, I'm sure.
When trying to study like Justin teaches even though you're not in the course: Focus on better encoding. What can you do so you retain more the first time you truly study. Things like pre-studying and doing a mind map can surely help. Even if you do them badly, if you do them you'll probably still benefit more than you'd benefit from traditional notes and re-reading. Also, while you study ask yourself specific questions which inquire about the relationship between things and why they are relevant. Embrace cognitive load which comes with a feeling of confusion and difficulty. These all help for more effective encoding. Then when you do spaced repetition you need to do it less because you've forgotten much less than you usually would!
I really hope these tips help. I've always been the person not able to afford things and I know what that feels like. Also, you can join the discord! Some channels are for course memebers only but still lots of interaction opportunities. My username on the Discord is Essen, feel free to ask me anything.

What I learned : syntopical way of priming
First establish flow from previous knowledge to add layer upon them
Being able to control when u are ready to receive certain type of information
It's doesn't matter if the screen is recorded, your explanations are always so great! Thank you so much 😊❤
Thank you for showing us your way of priming, it was very interesting and I'm curious to try it out. And I'd really like to see your final chunk map and the explanation on the process behind it!
Building an organizational structure is a crucial step in effective learning. By organizing information and understanding its importance, learners are better equipped to engage in discussions and retain knowledge. Spending time on priming and organization pays off in the long run compared to simply creating flashcards. The transcript highlights the process of building an organizational structure for a specific topic and emphasizes the benefits of higher-order learning. The speaker explains the importance of thinking about why information is important and how it relates to other concepts. By leveraging sin-topical learning and reading multiple sources simultaneously, learners can develop a holistic understanding of a topic. The transcript also mentions the benefits of managing cognitive load and the role of discomfort in the learning process. The speaker encourages learners to practice these techniques and offers a course for further guidance.
I might be enrolling into icsnstudy course the next time it opens, really looking forward to it
I try and apply your methods and insights into learning pieces on the piano. There’s a difference between academic and skill learning but some of it is transferable. Thankyou. London
I believe each topic you talked about, and certainly people we have our common friendly brain accenting brotherhood and friendship
Been watching a few of your vids and like your approaches. Your accent intrigues me. Seems to be a real mix. Sometimes I hear some Aussie in there.
Yes please do video in the ways ur chunk maps gets filled as u go through layes...by explain a bit about everything
You should definitely right a book 📖 on HOW TO LEARN
Sounds like you should read the table of contents to get a structure, then look at the chapters and do the same in order to generate questions and curiosity, then when you do read, the information will be absorbed and retained much faster.
In my degree of economics I used to do mind maps with a entity-relationship model (ER). For me is, maybe, the best way to do mindmaps. You can connect with logic every topic and ideas
Obviously is a pseudo-ER 🤣 i do a lot of connections between ideas
Just watching your UA-cam vids have helped me so much. I have never felt like this studying before.
I genuinely enjoy it I find comfort in learning honestly.
And once I will have the money to buy the course I will buy it too. Because I can see how thats gonna help me in future.
I also think think the Blooms taxonomy can be used as a check list in therapy. Did the client understand or even remember what we talk about last time, did they apply any of the knowleg (do there homework). Are they learning to analyze their life, are their attributions for their problems changing. Are they better evaluating there previous implicit theory's about the world and themselves with the knowledge they have gained. And finally, are the intentionaly creating a better life - generating hypothesis about an alternative way of living, planing actionable steps, and acting on them. First with the help of the therapist then later on as thing progresses are they doing it more independently . So again I think that learning to think in a complex and balances ways about things in school can help you in the longe run with your personal life. If you gravitate towards higher order learning you will gravitate to a higher order life.
I'm a CS student and I'd love to know how your techniques can be applied in subjects like Calculus, Algebra, Network, Programming,... It would be great if you can do a demonstration video on those subjects.
With technical courses its very similar just focus on application more.

Thank you. Gotta apply this right away.
Such an interesting video and channel. I wish you could show your method applied to Medicine in a video, since I feel like it's not as important to figure out an order and structure, since it's kind of pre-made in subjects like Pathology, where each disease has its method of diagnosis, its sypmtoms, its treatment, etc. The structure is always the same, and that makes it, paradoxically, kinda difficult to apply parts of this method, at least to me
sameeee, I don't see any other way apart from memorizing
But within symptoms, treatments, diagnosis etc. you can find more chunks and groups. Just keep breaking it into pieces. Although some of this stuff probably has an exact method you follow every time and so that probably would have to be memorised.
Exactly. I am final year medical student. I just cram and repeat ... solve multiple choice questions and clinical scenarios
I've been following your content for roughly a month and videos like this one really help me to connect the dots. Thanks man

Really cool, Justin. Thanks for sharing 👍
Justin u can simply put a community post for advices and suggestions or a google link separately to get advices separately from other comments etc
Justin I think a video on how and when to study the most nitty gritty details of topics would be really helpful. Like when I'm studying something like biology in my 11ths, there's like loads and stacks of important detailed information, and I'm not sure how to deal with that
Brilliant, appreciated! Your other videos are great, too. Hello! from University of California, San Diego, USA. :)
Why is this important?

First of all, LOVE your videos!!!!! Wish I came across your content sooner. Will ll definitely be giving your methods a go. I would love to see how the mind map turns out at the end of your study session.
Very good! Thank you for sharing this videos with us.
I am triple vaxxed, I am diabetic, and I detest needles! Put that on top of being non-neurotepycal (ASD, ADHD and OCD, along with sensory processing disorder) and I have a lot of anxiety about dentists and hospitals, etc. I also have sympathy pain, which put studying to be a nurse or doctor out of the question for me. I am in your course (End of nov 2021), and just trying to wrap my head how to prestudy with articles. But I am still in fundamentals 1, so I have a ways to go to get to the prestudy techniques. Thanks for the video!
Wow I'm amazed by this quality of content
Syntopical reading - Level 4 of reading. WoW
This is Cognitive science, the interdisciplinary, scientific study of the mind and its processes with input from linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, computer science, and anthropology. Wikipedia
I feel like this is how I spoke in elementary school after learning that all animals and ecosystems are connected. When I learned things it made me think of other things, so it seemed difficult to forget things as it was all "stuck" to other information.
Elon hires experts to do work for him. He isn’t the one building neural brain chips, and self driven vehicles. Those r the people who use what u just learned in this video
I'm so grateful, I'm born at the right era. I can learn things online my university wouldn't have thought of teaching lol
It's like the read everything 3-4 times technique: 1. go over it to get the overall idea/structure and 2. start asking the right questions for you: why do I want to read this, who much time do I want to spend to this, how is this relevant to my life, who is this author, where does this come from and where does it want me to move to 3. dive into it and look for the answers/start making anki-cards. 4. Start memorizing it - optimize: get rid of stuff that's seemed important in the beginning but after a few months you see that it is not really that important in your life.
I think it's better if 2 comes before 1
Might you just probably giv some advice about language learning？ Thank you so much if you hear me. I have to say these methods you mentioned before are absolutely effective and useful but sometimes they don't work for language learning.
Well, thinking about chunks or grouping: I find it is easier to learn a new language, if you chunk vocabulary into a context/a story eg what items do you find in a living room, which verbs do you need to form activities into a sentence (like "watching TV lying on the sofa") or even a short story. Which adjectives describe a noun, eg a juicy, sweet mango, a sour lemon. Where are adjectives positioned, in front or behind a noun....
I personally want to understand a language through grammar as it provides an immediate structure. So following higher order learning (in my interpretation) I would want to know which tense do I need in that language to express an activity in a specific time frame. For example in colloquial German the perfect tense is used for activities in the near past, while in English you would use past tense. This way you discover similarities and differences between two languages or between the different tenses within that language.
Then you continue with how these different tenses are formed. And if you contemplate these formations from a higher order, they won't be so daunting. The more advanced you get, the easier you will be able to detect mistakes you've been making.
But the most important method for ME is to learn through engaging or immersing yourself into that language. Even from the first words and sentences, I try to immediately apply them or think about them.
Hope this helps somewhat?
@@annvoy7698 thanks
Thank you so much sir 😁
I have a question: what is different between related and relationship in the encoding state
Enjoyed 5uis video really explains the difference between seasons I have struggled with and others where I have found learning flows, because I haven't looked at ho2 best to learn it thank you.
I'm 4th yr medical student in my first 2 yrs I was relying on active recall and I did just fine but now and with the amounts of material that should be consumed that method isn't as effective because I don't have much time so I'm burned out and struggling and I even failed some exams 😥
And I get this feeling of just giving up
Wish if I could join ur course, I believe it would be a life changer
Forgive my non-adherence to the conventions of the English language as I am regrettably, not a native speaker of this language, however, I want to express that, Honestly, I love your videos, I may not understand everything, but I just hope the tests in my next school will be based more on understanding the things conceptually than just having to learn facts by heart for every test... I am very interested in learning so I like your videos, but since I am not that old and my English level is still not completely fluent but just at around almost native level speaking, I will eventually come to your videos, when I actually need them for school, now I just attempt to use higher-order learning and in the end, I just learn the things by heart, I am not really reviewing my material, but since I am also learning a new language by myself daily since one and a half years, memorizing things has generally become way easier for me... However when I try to learn it conceptually I just overcomplicate the topic thinking that this is a key component and this is but in reality I just literally learn everything, so I need to refine my critical judgement more in the future too...
I have adhd and being organized doesn’t come naturally to me. These concepts are quite fascinating to me…
Thank you
After all of that, how do you pick out some content to be made into flashcards
Is the background music added to emphasize particular points? Or is it just adding extraneous cognitive load? I ask because I heard the music ca. 1:00, thought "Ack. I hate that. It is so annoying." And then the music stopped (thankfully)! Different music starts again at 02:15, but sadly doesn't stop. I would suggest Justin Sung drop the background music so the listener can concentrate on your otherwise useful and well-developed content.
I love the information that he share with us, even if sometimes i feel the explanation is a bit thick, i´ll do my best to be better.
Do you allow yourself to look at your mindmap while you are organising in your head?
Hi, Justin! Any tips on how to build this mental structure that will translate into the chunk map when consuming audio/video content, when you have little (if any) written material to support it?
Thanks and keep up the content! 💪
Very interesting topic! I hope he sees this. it will be super helpful when learning through audiobooks, podcasts and recordings.
@Mike Kane great points.
I would like to see how you or someone from your team would handle a math learning session. It is a subject that is necessarily linear in many aspects since many are built on top of one another. It is true that some topics can be learned in a different order than taught in school, but some can't. It is also a topic that requires learning concepts and then practicing using those concepts with various types of problems.
Another good video would be handling a technical subject like networking - also requiring an understanding of concepts, but then a practical knowledge when you physically set up a network.
Yeah, I’m wondering about that as well. I tried doing this with maths the other day and I struggled with it. It’s not as conceptual as, say, CogSci or the natural sciences and as such it requires a different approach.
I aouls argue their is concept that under lies thw working of things in math. Often time that concept however comes after you learn the specific thing which is kinda annoying xD and text books aren't really set up with concept in mind. Good ones have writen examples the nicely illustrates the case in a real world setting
@@nuwang2381 Yes. For many skill based concepts you learn how first, then understand why later after much practice. Of course you can still be told the why first, even you won't fully appreciate it until you have practiced many hours. I would like to see how Justin or his team handle this type of subject since they are expert learners. Maybe approach it exactly the same way.
@@dsterry74 Me too man me too. Math is really trippy cause it's like their are some people who learn math and understand the underlying reason for doing certain things and others just hammer through practice set's while not thinking about what is going on in the question. I think this might be applicable to math up until the highschool level only if the proper resources are provided. The text books in my school don't provide much explanation for anything really and the ability to nail the concept in extremely difficult. Something like collage algebra from Blitzer or pre calc from Blitzer outlines things with an illustration of concept first before diving into the acutal math which is really helpful.
@@nuwang2381 I was thinking similarly about it up to highschool. After Calculus, it looks like there many directions you can go topically without anything more than Calculus, unless you want to dive deep of course. Even before Calculus (or in conjunction with it) there is some wiggle room for exploration.
try to ask yourself the correlation of the questions or lessons being shown to you.
ask yourself how do they correlate & how to apply them to one another
such as legos & wiring.
Anatomy, words can overlap through bones, muscle, region & physiology can add through that
why does this channel still not have 1 million subscribers?! he is a power of study!
Thank You very very much !
Can we still try to use these techniques and find that they work, without taking the course? Because I don’t think I will be able to pay for and participate in the course, but I really want to use these more effective study techniques.
Yeah his course is rlly expensive
Hey Justin, love your videos. Would you mind sharing the tablet and program you are using to make mindmaps? Much appreciated :)
I can tell you one answer. The app is Concepts.
If you’re not making flashcards, what are you using to use recall later on? I understand active recall is less necessary when you are learning things the first time in higher order learning, but you have said you still need active recall, just a lot less. So how do you do that?
Hi, could you please link some of the papers or resources regarding the learning techniques you mention in your videos? I know there are a lot of them about Active Recalling and Spaced Repetition but I struggle to find the ones linked to concepts like higher-order concepts, chunking etc. Thanks!
Thnx..good video..if can do upload more video about how to relate thing easier
Thnx again
