 What's up guys, Isaac here, and today I'm gonna make a video to show you guys how to be extremely productive And I'm gonna show you how these tips that I'm giving you have translated into direct results through showing you my University grades and whatnot. So let's get into it. Okay, first things first I want to talk about the importance of Choosing the right environment to do your work here. So right here. I've got this kind of desk in my bedroom right here as you can see I'm gonna books my laptop and This is a good place for me to Do work for my YouTube channel for my Instagram for my you know online entrepreneurship hustle and stuff But it's not a very good place for me to study because what happens is my brain is associated this Workstation with those particular activities. So your brain is going to associate different workstations with different activities So you need to make sure whenever you Want to study or do some serious work you go to a place that you associate with study You don't want to study on your bed because your brain associates the bed with sleeping in the same way you wouldn't meditate on your bed Otherwise you end up falling asleep. You want to go somewhere quiet perhaps a library or something where your brain is gonna Recognize. Okay, this is the environment for studying. Let's get studying. Yeah, I'll show you guys where I study in the house All right, so for me, this is where the magic happens right here on this desk. This is a second Desk in my house where I've got the main desktop computer and this is where I actually do my studying, right? So I get my ass on this chair here I have my uni stuff my books my engineering work here as you can see and what I do, right? Is I go to an online stopwatch and what you do with the stopwatch is You as soon as you start studying You don't want to get rid of all distractions. You want to get rid of your phone You want to log off Facebook? You want to get rid of Instagram? Get your phone somewhere else get your iPad somewhere else and just sit your ass down and get the stopwatch and the stopwatch is gonna represent uninterrupted work time So you guys said it right as stopwatch you're gonna start from when you start studying and you're gonna give yourself Goals to achieve so perhaps you're gonna say to yourself after an hour and a half of direct work No, no interruptions you're gonna have a break and maybe watch Game of Thrones or watch power or something Then you come back and do the same thing again hour and a half Maybe two hours, maybe 30 minutes you find out what works for you It's different for different people some people can't do uninterrupted work for a very long time Some people can you need to find what works for you and experiment I found for me a good amount of times an hour and a half to two hours But if I'm feeling really good I just keep going while I'm in that flow state when my mind's in the zone now what I do with this time is I Have this book here. I've created this little grid So whenever I complete one hour of study, right? I pull a little cross pull across and This is a way for you to be accountable to see how much work you've actually done and you might set a goal for yourself You're gonna put a muck over here or over here a Position that represents the cinema study whenever you get to that point you're gonna reward yourself You're gonna do something that you actually really like because you would have done a lot of work Right big maps you I'm binge out on three episodes of power or game thrones Or you're gonna fucking do what you're gonna do, right? So if you can get into the habit of doing this it's gonna really discipline you into getting the zone of working Now luckily for me, I have this desk here. We actually do this work But if you don't have your own desk, you need to find somewhere quiet a good place is the library, of course get on yourself get yourself on those closeable fucking rooms close it Turn the internet off if you don't need it and just get to work and this doesn't just apply for university work This applies for anything and you find Number one the place where your brain associates that your brain associates will study number two You need to use this timer system as a way to be accountable to actually see how much work you've done a lot People tell me that they've studied for eight hours when in reality They might study for three hours and spent five hours fucking around on Facebook and browsing tabs This represents uninterrupted work in this 20 hours here. I'm showing you is just from the other Past two days when I was studying for this exam that I had anyway now. I'm gonna show you guys How this system that I've been using for past couple of years is actually translate into direct results All right guys for you guys don't know what I'm cause I do I am studying mechanical engineering and it's quite far Anyway, let's get into it If you look right at the bottom there shows my results from 2015 the first ones like make 343 I got 43, which is a fail next ones make to do 643 fail make to 150 Just barely passed 80 to 90 59 just barely passed This is 2015 arm. I wasn't very focused. I wasn't using the strategy that I showed you guys So my results were pretty shit 2015 still make 252 is a credit which is kind of average back two or three satisfactory And it's 252 pass inch 251 fail. So clearly I was not Really doing the best there as you can see pretty shitty. Yeah Failed like fucking three subjects But I started Implementing this technique to a degree in 2016 and the results are improved a bit see 5295 85 which is HD, which is completely fucking different from what I've been doing in 2015, which is good Make 343, which is one of the subjects I failed in 2015 77. That's a distinction two to six 65 credit 50 64 Mac 215 341 Pass which is pretty shitty 283 pass which is pretty shitty 251 distinction So two shitty subjects in 2016, but the rest were pretty good Now let's fast forward to some of the results for this year when I've really been Going both deep into this strategy. I just showed you guys Okay, looking from the top down for this year. These are just assessment marks. We haven't got results yet for this session The first mark is 76. I have a hundred next 163 next 169 Pretty decent. We got a six, which is a HD a six, which is a HD 90 which is a HD 41 of a hundred the one I know not anomaly of the year. I was actually sick on this quiz But you know fucking not too bad considering I was pumping the rest of it 75 Which is a distinction 48.5 by 50 which is a HD a hundred percent, which is HD as you can see this Strategy this way of studying definitely fucking works Only if you are willing to put in the work So yeah, I'm not doing this to brag Knowledge here in my garage We're just showing you guys that if you actually put your mind to it You can definitely improve your results dramatically if you use those strategies I talked about previously And guys, hope you guys enjoyed this video and got something out of it. Peace
