So glad we could help take something off your plate!!!
One of my "systems" for socialisation is saying yes to invitations (unless I really don't want to go/too tired) even when I have a pile of studying to do and work the next day! At the end of it, people really should be the priority; they're what we will remember fondly at the end of our lives, not how much studying we did! Keeping in touch with people and socialising regularly is hard for me as I'm an introvert. I often really don't feel like it but I say to myself "just go for an hour" and I usually end up having a good time and staying longer! I also really avoid touching my phone when I'm with people, as much out of respect for their presence as being in the moment.
As an introvert, I am a bit curious whether you do feel good being in a group of people. Don't you feel tired after interacting with lots of people?
My notes on the video :)
1. Academic system
- Sunday planning (look at deadlines, plan out reading, look at monthly and weekly goals)
- mandatory minimum (estimate of minimum time to get something done well)
- underestimation
- location (where do I go to do reading)
- vagueness = friction (plan location and timing)
- motivation (solution: choice architecture. Make studying the easy option.)
- start every study session with a pomodoro (25 mins, one task)
Ty!
Jade needs to have her own skillshare class on creating a good study system
agree. I wish she sees your comment
i just started sixth form in september as well as getting my first job and trying to juggle all that on top of young enterprise and my hobbies has been so hectic! thank you for always managing to release your videos just as i need them Jade it’s magical 🌟🌟
YOU'RE SO COOL HANNAH!! huge congrats for managing to successfully juggle so much 💌 you've got this
@@UnJadedJade AHHHH THANK YOU THIS MADE MY YEAR 💖💖
As someone who struggles so much to find time for my friends. What we did over lockdown is every week get together on a zoom call and just talked, for an hour. I would schedule it into the week and each week we would do something during said call, like playing online cards against humanity. Or even now with uni friends. I make sure to oragsnise things with my friends, and then when a little time is free spontaneously we do something!
Natalia!! This is so lovely and sounds like such a great way to keep up with friends. Thank you for the inspo ✨
As someone who is studying fulltime, working fulltime, volunteering and who has a social life I need systems so much! Thanks for inspiring me again :) btw, could you do a video on your notion set-up?
Love your pfp ✨💖
wow you are so amazing for that
As a busy senior high student studying International AS and A Level, I also feel both unmotivated and bored when I am at home, so I have to find and head to other suitable places, like library and cafe, to study productively and create more motivations.
Thanks for your amazing tips to boost my efficancy and improve my workflows.
On the topic of maintaining relationships, I found that for me, though this is influenced by my international move a few years ago, it is best to have set weekly times to spend with friends. Having those weekly calls, though if I could see my old friends and boyfriend in person then we would do that instead, really helps. And since it is the same time every week if is easier to keep the time free. On top of that, I do text randomly with my friends. So in answer to your question, i think having a scheduled and regular baseline is essential, and then the rest can be spontaneous.
I love how organized your mind is , for me i can literally have like 12 pages open in my mind and drown in them cuz it's just so hard to organize and sort them out 🤯
So excited for a new video! I need this now it is exam season. Hope uni is going well for you Jade! Love seeing your smile :)
Hey Jade! Though I am still in middle school, I loved watching this video and others from your channel. You are so kind for putting out these videos, they are so helpful. Lots of love from India❤
I can't describe just how helpful this video is for me, I literally went for a notebook to write it all down XD thank you so much Jade!!! I love all your content
Seeing how much time you put into filming a video from idea to execution, I value this video so much more! Thank you, Jade, it was really helpful 🌸💫🧚♂️
Jade! This video is come right when I need it! Just enrolled in my masters and am doing a one year diploma at the same time. Just today I was feeling super overwhelmed about how I will manage all my classes, readings and internships. Thank you so much! Your video is literally my casual (very real) magic for today. 🌞✨
I learned the "casual magic" word and learned about the concept from you. I love to read yours everytime I watch your video, it also makes me reflect on the present moment and find my own casual magic of the day, it's such a pleasing & magical thing to do
Thank you so much for posting that video! I’ve been kinda struggling with the workload of uni lately so it’s really nice to get some inspiration 💛🌞
I love how you did the breakdown for each aspect of your life! Your system is super clear and inspiring me to create my own💕
You inspire me so so much!!! I watch you every day, and inspire me to believe in myself and live my best life and to live with the best self care, even the tough self love!! You inspired me to write and illustrate my first children’s book that will be being printed and published soon, to step out of my comfort zone majorly, and now I am working with the former minister of education in Northern Ireland to improve mental health education, support and services in Northern Irish schools as well as being in the Youth Council for my area as well as the National Youth Choir for Northern Ireland as well as being the Welfare Student Officer for my campus. I’m so busy, but I love my life, and you have shown me that it is amazing not to go down the “A-levels, traditional university” route☺️ I wish I could meet you in real life honestly, you would be so an amazing friend to have
You truly are an inspiration Jade, another great video. Concerning the social systems I beleive they should be a baseline and the rest can be spontaniety. I think it important to be intentional about our actions. My best friend lives in Portugal and we call once a week and then send messages throughout the week. We have been doing this for a while now, and have been best friends for nearly 10 years. Hopefully I can see her in person soon ,when all the restrictions finally end.
this video spoke to me on a spiritual level. you approach things so similarly to me.
Thank you Jade for this video. For a first year Uni students I've been struggling a lot lately and this has given me a lot of ideas
I love your videos and I rarely comment, I’m so sorry, I’m usually too shy to do that, but I highly enjoy your videos. But this time I have to give my two cents, not in order to criticise, but to bring awareness to something that people may not be aware of.
I gave up working as a freelancer for platforms fiverr and upwork because it was so stressful always delivering your best and fastest work at the lowest price possible, and at the same time having to compete with so many other freelancers living in countries that are able to offer much lower prices… I have to say it was soul-crushing and i was living with constant existential anxiety. It was very difficult trying to establish myself as a new freelancer, as, as we saw in your example, clients will often want to take on people with hundreds of five-star reviews. I understand that for people-pleasers it is very important to learn the skill of negotiation, but in this case I think it would be kinder to then tip the freelancer those $20 afterwards. I’m so sorry to be so negative, but I’m so passionate about freelancers getting paid fairly. And that’s not just a problem on those platforms.
Much love, Anna
Anna, thank you for sharing your experiences! I hadn't considered this aspect of the platform and it's an interesting insight from the freelancer side -- you inspired me to tip him for his wonderful work 💛
omg, I wish I could find or have you as friend so bad... I would love spent hours talking at cafe and planning togheter ... For this new year I manifest to find someone like you. I love all your advices and how humble and true you are. Wish you the best for this new year and for everyone who's reading at my comment🥰
You’ve inspired me so much Jade. I look up to you a lot. Thank you so much for this channel. ❤️
Jade, a huuuge thanks to you for your attitude and for sharing it 💛 Im literally getting myself up, thanks!!
0.41 I have those exact primark shorts, got them like 6 years ago. Twinninggggg ✨ that’s my casual magic today, twinning with Jade
this video is exactly what i needed, this semester i moved out of my house into a university dorm and the planning and getting a balance is so much harder than i expected. so this really helped :)) btw in the section about your youtube system i saw this video idea about being scared of living abroad which is my daily dilemma: moving abroad for a semester next year or not, so if you have time and inspiration about this topic pls make a video about it x
Your channel and videos and your positive personality helped me alot in my life thankyouu my grades have improved after watching your videos regularly. I really wish u all the best ilysm
This means so much, thank you for such kind words!! big love
This.
I neeeeeeded THIS 😭❤️ you are amazing Jade 👏🏻
the editing when you were talking about your editor was perfection!
How I systematized social relationships a little bit more: over the day (sometimes 2-3 days) - if I don't have the time or energy to reply directly - I put the chat on unread and into the archive on WhatsApp. This way, I always see how many people I didn't reply to. Also, I don't forget to answer and it keeps the friction low of having to search for an "unread" chat below.
I still need to systematize other parts of my life though :) your tips are very helpful!! Thank you for this content! :)
Location is my biggest motivator but I don’t have a place to work outside my house. Because of covid local libraries are only allowing people in the library for 1 hour. I normally spend my whole day there so right now I am bound to my house. I would go to school and work but my school is a ways away and the time and money spent travelling is not worth it. And cafes are somewhere I cannot work, too loud. So I hope in the fall, that I can improve my location, I hope to go back to school in person. My solution to working at home is to find different areas of my house to work, I have a desk, I go to the kitchen/dining room table, the couch, or my bed. This works most times, just to change things up a bit.
I love how I've developed the habit of liking Jade's videos before watching
I love watching your videos because you motivate me to study. Your love of learning reminds me that I also love learning, so I should be doing just that instead of watching UA-cam lol.
Also, I learned about Pomodoro from previous videos of yours and it's been an absolute game-changer for me! I have a hard time staying focused, my mind tends to wander, but those 25 minute pockets of time landed me As in both my courses last term. 25 minutes is more doable and less intimidating. Thank you for these videos!
Omgggg 23 seconds ago!! Now I’ll enjoy this with my breakfast before I start my own studying!! Thankyouuuuuu Jade! Love your videos so much! So motivating 😍
Awhh I love this!! Have an incredible day 🦋
You're such a motivating person ! Always a good mood around you ! You always smile and give piece of advices, it's just, incredible ! Thank you for your positivity and keep going like that !
Jade, Jade, Jade. Thank you! This came at a perfect time.
Hello to you ! I really want to thank you for the subject and the quality of your channel ! I'm in Uni and I struggle a lot because of my anxiety with... everthing actually haha. But since I use some of your advice I see a improvement thank you for what you're doing. Big kiss and good vibe for France !
Needed this today! So thankyou for this!
Hi Jade, Hope you are doing well,
Just wanted to pop here and say thank you so much for these brilliant, thoroughly planned videos with extremely practical content. Whenever I hear your voice i am immediately put at ease. I also am taking Chem bio and Maths (currently in that pre-mock stretch)! Your routines and enthusiasm for study and mindfulness are exemplary and so refreshing to hear about ✨♥📔
Love your videos :) I got really inspired to create good systems for myself in the future :) Academic, my athletic life, daily tasks :) Thank you so much :)
This really put things into perspective for me
tysm for these videos jade 💜 its been so hectic lately and watching ur videos has helped me sm 💕💕
i feel this SO MUCH!! you've got this 🦋
@@UnJadedJade aghh tysm 😭😭🥺
I would really love a video on making a system for social life!!
Can you do another video on notion? I absolutely love your templates!!! I know you have already posted a tutorial but maybe you could do an updated one with your new systems? I’ve been using notion this semester and I’ve fallen in love, but there’s just so much that I don’t know about it that I feel like could make my university life flow more efficiently!
I enjoyed this your videos are really inspiring especially your gcse ones bc they are really helping me atm thank you jade for your videos:) your very inspiring u get more sucscribes xx
Your videos are always great! Super helpful
You are suuuuuuch an Inspiration! You re mindest, Charisma and many intelligences are so stunning! It is always a pleasure to watch your Videos no matter if I have a great or bad day, it always makes me calm down. Love uuuuu !
Relating to social systems, when I am far away from friends I am really bad at texting and calling. So, intead of forcing myself to communicate in ways I am bad at, I write the letters and post cards because it is easier for me to feel motivated. Writing to my friends is almost a form of journaling for me, except I also get to hear how they are doing and send them gifts or photos.
such a really useful video, especially right now since it is exam season for me. During this period of studying, being at home etc it can be really easy to get distracted as you said. For this reason, i really like to use the Forest app which I think you've already heard of it. it is similar to the pomodoro technique but you actually plant a tree whilst studying. so, while you are studying, you are also helping the environment. how cool is that?!?! have a good day.
Thank you so much for the video! You inspired me to be a more dedicated person. I like to see your videos for motivation and learning. Sending kisses from Brazil
I was in desperate need for a system for uploading UA-cam videos: this was invaluable Jade!
I'm so excited for the continual growth of your channel, Ahmed! I highly recommend making a video template and Kanban board on Notion to help you plan and track your uploads :)
@@UnJadedJade Thanks Jade - I'm literally making the Notion board right now haha!
We needed this ❤️
workflows are such a cool concept.
thank you for the useful video as always jade 💗
mhmm
”I’m trying to thrive, not just survive” THIS!!

Oeh, I saw a video idea of a study with me in Berlin, would love that video! Especially with exam-season coming up:))
Your voice and accent is SO relaxing 😍
Love your videos Jade 🙏🏻⭐️👏😘
You're videos are so Amazing I absolutely love it.
I love your video and your wonderful idea! It help me a lot!
Can you pleaseeee do productive week routine in UNI Pleaseeeee I think it would be FAB & MOTIVATING!😍😍
amazing loved this video xx
thank you Jade!!
hii do you have any recommendations of your favourite podcast? (thank you so much for existing btw this helped a lot 🤍)
Jade, you should do a video on ethical investing in the stock market!! 💚🌞🌍
I would love a recommendation list of your favourite podcasts ❤
she's the best girl for me !!!!❤️❤️
girl can you stop stalking me. how do your videos always reflect the problems i have in my uni life at the moment 😭
to go deeper on the negotiating, women are found to "negotiate less" bc there are often more consequences for negotiating. more likely to have offers rescinded or even fired. it's the retaliation that is the deterrent for women.
I was a bit late watching this one but I enjoyed it, nonetheless. I can highly recommend a little countertop dishwasher for outsourcing that hideous, timeconsuming washing up!! I should have got one years ago.
Loveeed this Video as always :)
Can you Make a video about financing? I am really curious about the options in Europe!
oh wow i'm EARLY !!! exciting
Dude!! Please link those podcasts abt relationships, that sounds very interesting
Hi! Jade i will be happy if you please tell me how to manage one's time to cover lots of topic for a shorter period of time.have a nice day
Hi! I spotted your Minerva video idea in your backlog! That would be an awesome one to do! 🙋♂
You’re Awesome❤❤❤
Really comfortable.
i totally relate to the importance of having a good study system in university. I struggle to plan how to pre-read to prep for next week classes while also finding time to write notes/do practices. is there any way how i can create such a study plan while also ensuring i have a work life balance? :") really need help
Do you have a video on how exactly you use notion? cuz I've had it for a while and I still don't know how to use it😕
Hi Jade. Love this video and I hope you are doing well. 😊 I know that you are very busy so you might not even see this but I wanted to ask if you prefer academy (maybe you call it high school in England - I'm from Scotland) or University? I have had a hard time in school for as long as I can remember and am thinking about leaving early (you can leave at 16 here) and I was wondering if it does get better in higher education and if I should apply for college/uni. Thanks for reading, I will take all the advice I can get! :)
Jade... can u do a video on how to make a time table for alvel.. bio chem and Physcis
OMG!!! I miss your casual magic! There's a gap there.🙊🙊🙊 no wey
Congratulations for your always inspiring videos ❤❤
Oh my GOSH the description didn’t update 🤯 your reminder is my magic
@@UnJadedJade casual magic is one of the highlight and acquisition of this year to my vocabulary and also my routine. I even introduce my friends to this concept and we've a WhatsApp group to share the casual magic of the day. How can I forget it!!!!!!
@@paulabeniteztorijano7275 that is so wonderful!
You are a superwoman ♥️
Love from Hong Kong! UR AMAZING.
sending love right back to you in Hong Kong!! ✨
hey when are you coming to Hyderabad, India. lots of love
What are the podcasts that you listen to Jade?
The classes you describe that you have instead of lectures sound just like seminars in traditional universities?
Can you suggest some of those podcasts you mentioned about relationships ?🤔
Can I ask where did you get that white jumper with fruity print that you wear in this video?🥺🥺
No more surviving. Only THRIVING!
currently im trying to juggle studying,part-time job,driving lessons,gym and hanging out with my friends and it's not the easiest thing to do without a system oof im gonna try tho
btw could you recommend me a decent app for flashcards?
Can you recommend podcasts on relationships please
love from london:)
Awww my fab jade
hello you legend
"I'm trying to thrive not just survive" HELLO
i wish this came in September 😭😭 but better late than never
Heyy what are some of the podcasts called?
Imagine studying at uni,being a housewife,being a carer for a terminally ill husband, a special needs dog, writing a book,starting a business and renovating a home. Coffee and insomnia helps 😜
