Maybe we should have a schedule from the moment we get up in the morning. Set an alarm for everything you have to do. I usually finish a task when I don’t look at the time. The clock is a big distraction,. It keeps you going when you don’t chk the time, just the alarm
#4: Replace the thought prefix "I will try" with "I will do" #5: Remember why you want to do the thing in the first place, and if it is enjoyable to you, remember how good the flow state feels.
@@twodogzdogue8710 Much love and best wishes to you. You really can do whatever you set your mind to. I used to be really depressed as well, and though it was hard and took a while I got through it and I've totally transformed since then. If I can do it so can you. I believe in you
I am a 15-year-old Vietnamese student. I failed the high school entrance exam even though everyone had thought I d pass and study in a high-qualitied school. The reason for my failing were not because I was lazy or had bad ability, it was caused by my wrong study schedule. I made too high goal everyday which was over my possibility. I tried in vain but I was still patient and hoped that I d get luck. But no. I failed. Everyone all regrets for me now. I gonna study in a private school, practice english more and take the IELTS. I must change because I don't want it happens again!!!💪
I've learned that the hardest part about doing anything is just getting started. If you can just get started, you will continue with what needs to be done. Instead of telling yourself you need to go on a run, just put on your running shoes and step outside. The rest will be much easier
I agree 100%. That's where I wish I had a real friend who said, c'mon, it's no big deal, let's get it done. But there are no such friends on the planet.
Yeah, I used this method a few years ago when I started walking (outside, not on some lame treadmill) one block a day. After that got too easy I added another block, etc., etc., etc., And, before I knew it I was walking two miles a day! Btw-I didn’t change my eating habits at all, but in about 3 months time I had lost 30 pounds! So...start small...baby steps...and go with what your body tells you!! If I did it, trust me-so can you!!!!
I added this to my "Watch later" list... last year.. now I'm finally here after almost a year of procrastination and yet I'm still too lazy to actually watch it.
Another Method I use is.... I take a project that MUST be done and divide it into 5 or 10 SMALL projects. One morning my car had a FLAT TIRE during a winter snow storm. I didn't want to fix it but the car was in front of my house close by. I felt lazy but I divided the BIG job into several tasks. 1 open trunk and get spare tire out... then take a break in house to get warmed up. 2... get the tools I need near the tire....take another break....3. get the jack from trunk and place it under car & another break in house....4. loosen bolts on wheel...another break...5 remove tire and place new tire onto car...take break....6 put everything away and leave for work FINISHED!!! I could not face the BIG job... but I could face 5 or 10 LITTLE jobs. (I am 62) . I always say "When you get old, you have to DO a little... then REST a little."

Kain Bastien it's sort of like repetition like how as children we learn how to use the toilet or ride a bike i learned to speak Spanish by repeating the words over and over in my head
This technique helps you overcome the most difficult thing: to take the first step, that first move out of laziness. Once you get started, it'll be hard to stop after only one minute.
This is so similar to what ive been doing to achieve my goals. I have always wanted to work out but everytime i attempt to i get discouraged after about a week or two. So i have started up again and have committed to doing only 30 squats a day. If i want to do more i can but i only commit to 30 squats. Suprising that it seems i always end up doing more but the thought of working out doesnt seem like a chore anymore. Trying to implement that thinking in other areas of my life.
I have a rule that says: "If it can be done in two minutes, do it right now." It's useful when I look at a sink full of dishes. I might rinse dishes for two minutes, and pile them up, with the intention of putting them in the dishwasher later. Sometimes I get distracted and work more, but as long as I did it for two minutes, I'm satisfied enough not to feel guilty walking away from the chore. Pile of clean clothes to fold/hang? Work on two minutes of individual items. Don't want to match socks all day? How about matching 3 pairs. Over time, it's true... you just get used to doing the activity, and the time flows away more readily. Another thing I do is to limit the things I enjoy.

If I want to play a first person shooter, and I know I get wrapped up in the games, I'm not allowed to play more than the time allotted. Maybe I only have an hour, but if the alarm goes off, and I'm having a bad game, I walk away and accept that I lost that hour. Maybe I want to enjoy some youtube vids, but I only have 30 minutes, simply respect the timer. :-) Just another suggestion.
what most people here aren't understanding, and that's surely because they didn't watch the whole video, is that this is not about doing the same thing every single day during 1 minute. It is like this: 1 minute today, 1 minute tomorrow, 1 minute the day after tomorrow, then in the next day 2 minutes, then other 2, then 5, then 15, then 30, then 60, then 120... This technique is pretty simple and I've been using it my whole life without knowing it. I started with my walking exercises, I used to walk some 10 minutes, then 15 minutes, then 30, then running... The main problem is that other people and the world around us are always rushing us to perform a lot of tasks and to perform them with high efficiency. So from time to time we have to stop and think about our lives meditating.
Leon Parker the problem I saw was doing it at the same time or even same spot in your routine. Cause what ADHDer really has a self motivated routine? If they do have any routine it's because they are in the military or school or something similar. Even then 1 min can be an eternity, think cool down on a video game, or at the dentist. I posted earlier how certain chemicals in our brains are deficit in ADHDers brains. Specifically ones related time management and reward.
Leon Parker I agree sir. I haven't always used this technique, but I heard about it elsewhere. Great technique. I think too, it's good to use it to declutter your schedule: Reduce the time, at least for me, reading news; reduce the time watching videos on TH-cam; etc., therefore we can increase the time focusing on our goal. I will use this in learning a language. I am so assiduous in study, it can be too much, and I end up not happy.
This won’t work, and yes I have tried it. I’ve been doing stretching exercise for about 2 months everyday for 10-15 minutes, and still it’s unbearable, it hasn’t became noticeably more bearable or more enjoyable than before starting it. Do I get joy from “improving” myself? Answer is: very very little, absolutely not worth fighting for it. This probably only can work for physical activity that increases heart beat rate,for example: simple running ,because your body get used to it, not your mind. So overall this is bulls*it, If you hate doing hate doing something, you will always do no matter how you do it, it won’t became enjoyable or noticeably more bearable, or it will take very long time at least a year. And now I would like to hear someone disagree with me, and have their story.
Louise - this reminds me of my husband, he say's "do something, even if it's wrong". Now, realize, he's not meaning do wrong things. I have trouble prioritiziing, and so I can't decide what to start with, eventually ending up doing nothing. So he say's, "do something even if it's wrong"...LOL He also uses your idea. When we want to do something together, he lets me know that it doesn't have to be some grand vacation, he say's "we should do something just a little bit above nothing"... Just wanted you to know, enjoyed your comment
I also discovered this technique by accident. I started jogging every afternoon but decided I would go only a very short distance and go further only if and when I felt like it. Needless to say, I felt like it often enough and started feeling better.. and the rest is history.
You could probably think and analyze why you want/need to diet, for 60 sec every day, may be even write it down for a minute....it could produce some results..)) good luck!
Micro-habits basically. Like saying you'll do ten push ups every day. You end up doing a lot more if you don't make it a big deal in your mind and blocking off time. Duolingo, the language app, does it too. Five minutes per lesson. I have a 215 day streak, so it worked on me! It's a great skill. I have chronic pain and fatigue, so a lot of times I'm uncomfortable or in pain and some things are just too much, but this kind of thing opens a lot of doors. I don't have to clean the whole kitchen right now. I just need to clean the countertop. Yeah, I can do that. Well, I guess I can take out the garbage. And, well, I could do those dishes really quickly. It has helped quite a bit. Turn those mountains back into molehills, and they're a lot more achievable!
I love how I practiced this today without even knowing this concept. I told myself I wanted to achieve jump roping for just 1 minute and felt amazing about it afterward 🙂
Make the world a better place for others. Every day, take a minute to think up how to make the world a better place, and write it down. Simply thinking about ways to solve, eliminate, or cope with our human problems helps improve our individual values; this new awareness is connecting us more strongly to the collective conscience grid. Truthful education, open-mindedness, and decisive action based on long term goals along with a bounty of food and water are all the ingredients that a blissful global society would need. Once individualism is dethroned from the human perspective we can co-exist more peacefully within the confines of the planet. Realizing that our most important needs can be taken care of if we all work together towards common goals. Only then will we be able to progress to a higher level global civilization. Imagine an entire planet where all the human basic needs are being taken care of and the children grow up healthy and not psychologically damaged. Those children achieve great things in their lives and educate themselves and their children, humanity has so much potential if we can simply work together instead of against each other. Instead of having to come up with vaccines and cures for various symptoms, we could eliminate the the problem all-together and devote our attention to higher technology for space exploration. We cannot explore outer space until we explore our inner space. We are just vibrating sources of creativity, that is all we are. Humans that is. What we think about is what our frequency is and it is what we attract. Imagine being on the same frequency with the entire population on the planet. Right now we are noise, but together we can change the frequency and wavelength of our collective intent in this realm that we call reality. Understanding that the only limits as a species are the ones we impose on ourselves. What would happen if money was not the motivation we used to convince others to do work. What if the motivation came from within and money was no object. We can use technology to make our lives extremely easy, manual labor does not have to exist. We can computerize everything, program it all because we are that smart when we put our minds to it. Using renewable energy and non-renewable elements we can create a global infrastructure that does not interfere with the climate or weather. We populate the correct zones and terraform deserts into rain-forests. We control ourselves for sustainable population (it boggles me how we still have not figured that one out yet). We develop compassion for each other as individuals and grow the collective knowledge. Ok, that was a bit more than a minute but I like that thought.
IronButterfly1023 I agree. Knowing is not enough. But without knowing we cannot successfully do. Without the will to do and the courage to act, all the knowledge is for naught.
i'll take my one minute to tell you this, the potato: with habit yes but you can actually use "an" or "a"...in fact it can be used in front of many h words and often depends on tone, pronunciation, dialect. think "an hour" or "an historic event"...in US though, it's mostly used before an unpronounced "h" like "herb" but it's not a strict rule.
I know as much as pronouncing something like university is "a university" because it should sound yuni-verse.. I never heard anyone says "an 'abit", or "an 'istoric event" but I'm absolutely sure agree with "an 'our". This is new to me. I'll have a read about this later.
Do it. In life drawing classes, you have 10, 20 & 30 second gesture drawings to help loosen you up and get your hand moving efficiently. You'd be surprised how much of a figure you can capture and record in one minute. So tomorrow, set up something easy and draw it for one minute a day for the next two weeks. Save the drawings and see how much you've improved at getting the picture down on paper quickly.
I assigned this to my class for 2019-2020 out of 175 students 12 completed this assignment. They found it very helpful. The other students felt that 1 minute was too long and not worth the effort. They did not see the value in even attempting to try something such as this as it was another example of teachers,"doing to much."
I'm a Japanese in Tokyo, not like the Chinese woman in the thumbnail :D 改善 KAIZEN is not a special word, we use it in our everyday conversation. "KAI" means "change", but "ZEN" means just "good" So, KAIZEN means simply "make it better" "change it better" and has nothing to do with the 1 minutes theory, basically... but we're told to keep trying everyday constantly to achieve goals. (Well, I'm such a lazy person tho! :D XD )
Karine I experienced a similar effect studying only 15 minutes a day the first thing when I wake up . Over time I learned a lot . It was very effective because I never missed a day and many times it ended up being over an hour when time allowed
Before I was so very lazy it comes to the point that I don't want to do anything, and then suddenly I realize that I haven't done anything I really like to do, so since I have experience that nonsense matter I try to make things step by step slowly so the result was I was doing little things for everyday and I achieve them by the time goes by...
I have practiced somewhat similar some twenty years ago. A friend helped me set a routine of six workouts (Jumping Jack, Push-Up, Crunch Middle, Crunch Left, Crunch Right, ...), and I began doing one of each on the first day, and no more. The second day, two of each. On the third, three of each, and so on. After two months, I could do sixty pushups, and the same of each other of the workouts, and was really in great shape, and this workout was a daily and easy routine.
Actually, it could work in a way. Not regular academics, but if you want to learn a foreign language. Studying a foreign language for 1 min each day may be enough to learn ONE word. If you can learn ONE new word a day in 30 years you will learn over 10,000 foreign language words.
ND G sure, and if that's one minute after you wake up, or when you get home from work, that's doable, and could probably still form a habit. If it has to be at the same time every day, though, it might not be an option for people with, say, a rotating work schedule. If you work mornings, evenings, and nights, on different day's, a specific time isn't nessessarily realistic.
You know the idea behind it is that : after a while you will start to want to do it more than one minute per day. Because after some time, you will start to want to do it more than just a minute, but you should continue to take your time with it and not rush too fast(, again ).
That is not what Kaizen means...Kaizen means improvement. So whenever you do project, you reflect and think about what you can fix in order to make it even better
I red the book "the compound effect" and the book aperently describes kaizen cause the book recomends exacly that ! puting a little affort in something but for a long period of time is more valuble than overworking on something for a week and than quiting thats how habits are born.I started to learn japanese for like 10 min a day and I could read katakana/hiragana after a month it was amazing!!
I started learning French for five minutes a day using this principle, and today I have been successful in continuouly learning for 568 days (learning streak). This is a miracle I never expected
I study for one hour a day. It keeps me from cramming and getting stressed out. It's one of the methods I used to overcome severe test anxiety. At one point, I had to take meds before attempting to complete an exam. I'm so glad I no longer have to deal with that.
This is the only life hacks/health advice channel where I follow the instructions to a tee: probably because everything Bright Side publishes is totally real... or else it’s an amazing placebo, either way I adore this channel and it’s actually improving my existence. Thank you so much ❤️
My mom once suggested me to revise and look over my notes every couple of weeks so that that way I would learn them and remember them more easily so that when the time came to study I wouldn't have to stress too much because I would already know the material
it took my all not to abandon this bc of that unnecessarily long intro sigh good thing he started talking abt the 1 minute when i was about to ditch this
lrose - When they were taking the photo, the original Japanese model was doing her 60 second self-improvement....maybe looking for better modeling jobs...
Yeah, thought about that too, which gave second thoughts on clicking the video. It's not too hard to look for a picture of a Japanese woman on the internet, right?
That's how I started becoming a TH-cam watcher: only a couple of minutes a day. Now I'm off TH-cam only a couple of minutes a day. So yeah, I can CERTIFY it. THIS METHOD IS EFFECTIVE!!
OK OK OK I AM THE LAZIEST PERSON OF ALL BUT THIS 1 MIN CHALLENGE GOT ME PUMPED UP IM GOING TO THIS AND IM GOING TO SUCEED...... WISH ME LUCK EVERYONE 👍🏽😬
apa aja no E still doing it every night while I watch TH-cam videos before I go to bed I lay on my stomach and do it and minutes just be passing me bye 😀💃🏼

This is exactly why I draw a small drawing everyday and took on the 365 day drawing challenge. A small sketch can take such little time. It's really helpful and I've been improving on my art ever since

This is so similar to what ive been doing to achieve my goals. I have always wanted to work out but everytime i attempt to i get discouraged after about a week or two.

Suprising that it seems i always end up doing more but the thought of working out doesnt seem like a chore anymore. Trying to implement that thinking in other areas of my life.
Yes, we just need to start n keep small goals
I have a rule that says:
"If it can be done in two minutes, do it right now."
It's useful when I look at a sink full of dishes. I might rinse dishes for two minutes, and pile them up, with the intention of putting them in the dishwasher later. Sometimes I get distracted and work more, but as long as I did it for two minutes, I'm satisfied enough not to feel guilty walking away from the chore.
Pile of clean clothes to fold/hang? Work on two minutes of individual items. Don't want to match socks all day? How about matching 3 pairs.
Over time, it's true... you just get used to doing the activity, and the time flows away more readily.
Another thing I do is to limit the things I enjoy. Mainly to keep me from spending too much time doing something I love to do. If I want to play a first person shooter, and I know I get wrapped up in the games, I'm not allowed to play more than the time allotted. Maybe I only have an hour, but if the alarm goes off, and I'm having a bad game, I walk away and accept that I lost that hour. Maybe I want to enjoy some youtube vids, but I only have 30 minutes, simply respect the timer. :-)
Just another suggestion.
Jeremy Johnson a working strategy but depressing and torturous instead of enjoyable
Jeremy Johnson smart idea man .
That leads to horrible livelocks though.
You may get stuck doing small unimportant tasks and never get to important, large tasks.

The main problem is that other people and the world around us are always rushing us to perform a lot of tasks and to perform them with high efficiency. So from time to time we have to stop and think about our lives meditating.
Leon Parker the problem I saw was doing it at the same time or even same spot in your routine. Cause what ADHDer really has a self motivated routine? If they do have any routine it's because they are in the military or school or something similar.
Even then 1 min can be an eternity, think cool down on a video game, or at the dentist.
I posted earlier how certain chemicals in our brains are deficit in ADHDers brains. Specifically ones related time management and reward.
Leon Parker it trains your sub conscious mind an develops a new habit
Leon Parker I agree sir. I haven't always used this technique, but I heard about it elsewhere. Great technique. I think too, it's good to use it to declutter your schedule: Reduce the time, at least for me, reading news; reduce the time watching videos on TH-cam; etc., therefore we can increase the time focusing on our goal. I will use this in learning a language. I am so assiduous in study, it can be too much, and I end up not happy.
Leon Parker
Thank You for explaining it better
This won’t work, and yes I have tried it.
I’ve been doing stretching exercise for about 2 months everyday for 10-15 minutes, and still it’s unbearable, it hasn’t became noticeably more bearable or more enjoyable than before starting it.
Do I get joy from “improving” myself? Answer is: very very little, absolutely not worth fighting for it.
This probably only can work for physical activity that increases heart beat rate,for example: simple running ,because your body get used to it, not your mind.
So overall this is bulls*it, If you hate doing hate doing something, you will always do no matter how you do it, it won’t became enjoyable or noticeably more bearable, or it will take very long time at least a year.
And now I would like to hear someone disagree with me, and have their story.
I have been doing this for a long time and never knew it was a thing! I just called it the better than nothing technique
. Lol
Louise - this reminds me of my husband, he say's "do something, even if it's
wrong". Now, realize, he's not meaning do wrong things. I have trouble prioritiziing, and so I can't decide what to start with, eventually ending up doing nothing. So he say's, "do something even if it's wrong"...LOL
He also uses your idea. When we want to do something together, he lets me know that it doesn't have to be some grand vacation, he say's "we should do something just a little bit above nothing"...
Just wanted you to know, enjoyed your comment

How we can do kaizan
Roaring. That was so funny and TRUE.
Lol. That means you have the wisdom to think of something great :)
I also discovered this technique by accident. I started jogging every afternoon but decided I would go only a very short distance and go further only if and when I felt like it. Needless to say, I felt like it often enough and started feeling better.. and the rest is history.
Great !! Now I can diet for 60 seconds
lol
😂😂😂
You could probably think and analyze why you want/need to diet, for 60 sec every day, may be even write it down for a minute....it could produce some results..)) good luck!
Ha ha my mom diet for breakfast snd thats all. Drive me nuts!!!!!
lol
I'm gonna mow my yard one minute a day until its done...I like this method. 💯
I hope you succeeded
Micro-habits basically. Like saying you'll do ten push ups every day. You end up doing a lot more if you don't make it a big deal in your mind and blocking off time. Duolingo, the language app, does it too. Five minutes per lesson. I have a 215 day streak, so it worked on me! It's a great skill. I have chronic pain and fatigue, so a lot of times I'm uncomfortable or in pain and some things are just too much, but this kind of thing opens a lot of doors. I don't have to clean the whole kitchen right now. I just need to clean the countertop. Yeah, I can do that. Well, I guess I can take out the garbage. And, well, I could do those dishes really quickly. It has helped quite a bit. Turn those mountains back into molehills, and they're a lot more achievable!

I love how I practiced this today without even knowing this concept. I told myself I wanted to achieve jump roping for just 1 minute and felt amazing about it afterward 🙂
I'm going to start using my one minutes every day to drink more water, exercises, cleaning, organization, this sounds good to try!
I'm not lazy, I'm uninspired!
Messed-up Kid same thing kid
Make the world a better place for others. Every day, take a minute to think up how to make the world a better place, and write it down. Simply thinking about ways to solve, eliminate, or cope with our human problems helps improve our individual values; this new awareness is connecting us more strongly to the collective conscience grid.
Truthful education, open-mindedness, and decisive action based on long term goals along with a bounty of food and water are all the ingredients that a blissful global society would need. Once individualism is dethroned from the human perspective we can co-exist more peacefully within the confines of the planet. Realizing that our most important needs can be taken care of if we all work together towards common goals. Only then will we be able to progress to a higher level global civilization.
Imagine an entire planet where all the human basic needs are being taken care of and the children grow up healthy and not psychologically damaged. Those children achieve great things in their lives and educate themselves and their children, humanity has so much potential if we can simply work together instead of against each other. Instead of having to come up with vaccines and cures for various symptoms, we could eliminate the the problem all-together and devote our attention to higher technology for space exploration. We cannot explore outer space until we explore our inner space.
We are just vibrating sources of creativity, that is all we are. Humans that is. What we think about is what our frequency is and it is what we attract. Imagine being on the same frequency with the entire population on the planet. Right now we are noise, but together we can change the frequency and wavelength of our collective intent in this realm that we call reality. Understanding that the only limits as a species are the ones we impose on ourselves. What would happen if money was not the motivation we used to convince others to do work. What if the motivation came from within and money was no object. We can use technology to make our lives extremely easy, manual labor does not have to exist. We can computerize everything, program it all because we are that smart when we put our minds to it. Using renewable energy and non-renewable elements we can create a global infrastructure that does not interfere with the climate or weather. We populate the correct zones and terraform deserts into rain-forests. We control ourselves for sustainable population (it boggles me how we still have not figured that one out yet). We develop compassion for each other as individuals and grow the collective knowledge.
Ok, that was a bit more than a minute but I like that thought.
Very underrated comment. It even took less than a minute to read!
But...Bruce Lee said, Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do...
IronButterfly1023 I agree. Knowing is not enough. But without knowing we cannot successfully do. Without the will to do and the courage to act, all the knowledge is for naught.
*It works!!* 1 minute of me sitting in front of the computer, *NOW IT'S AN HABIT*
Pay2Weed Same! Now it changed into hours of my day.
I've taken my one minute to tell you that it should be 'a habit'.
i'll take my one minute to tell you this, the potato:
with habit yes but you can actually use "an" or "a"...in fact it can be used in front of many h words and often depends on tone, pronunciation, dialect. think "an hour" or "an historic event"...in US though, it's mostly used before an unpronounced "h" like "herb" but it's not a strict rule.
I know as much as pronouncing something like university is "a university" because it should sound yuni-verse.. I never heard anyone says "an 'abit", or "an 'istoric event" but I'm absolutely sure agree with "an 'our". This is new to me. I'll have a read about this later.

"I want to draw picture a day!"
*draws one line*
"Oh no, time's up"
according to this vid you set your goal to high (lol) :D
Do it.
In life drawing classes, you have 10, 20 & 30 second gesture drawings to help loosen you up and get your hand moving efficiently. You'd be surprised how much of a figure you can capture and record in one minute.
So tomorrow, set up something easy and draw it for one minute a day for the next two weeks. Save the drawings and see how much you've improved at getting the picture down on paper quickly.

I assigned this to my class for 2019-2020 out of 175 students 12 completed this assignment. They found it very helpful. The other students felt that 1 minute was too long and not worth the effort. They did not see the value in even attempting to try something such as this as it was another example of teachers,"doing to much."
I'm a Japanese in Tokyo, not like the Chinese woman in the thumbnail :D 改善 KAIZEN is not a special word, we use it in our everyday conversation. "KAI" means "change", but "ZEN" means just "good" So, KAIZEN means simply "make it better" "change it better" and has nothing to do with the 1 minutes theory, basically... but we're told to keep trying everyday constantly to achieve goals. (Well, I'm such a lazy person tho! :D XD )
:D Japan is sooo cool and i'm going to visit next year and i'm sooooooooo exited! :3
O Yoko wow I really love japan I wish I could visit it sometime
Hi, yoko ...i wanna know any special technique of meditation....of japan..do u know any of tht..then help me for the right information...
O Yoko your logic of kaizen makes more sense to me.. thankyou for sharing.. love and respect from India
O Yoko

This is a brilliant idea. Every day I studied Japanese kanji characters for 5 minutes a day. A few years later now I am fluent in Japanese!
Karine I experienced a similar effect studying only 15 minutes a day the first thing when I wake up . Over time I learned a lot . It was very effective because I never missed a day and many times it ended up being over an hour when time allowed
that happened
Woah thats pretty nice to know :o ive always wanted fluent japanese in my life
I just started studying Japanese. I want to go to study in a high school with Japanese as my 1st language.
Wow! I'm really impressed! I'm trying to brush up my German so may give it a go.
It's a good idea for setting up a good habit, like meditation.
here i am watching this video instead of studying for my Finals tomorrow.....
😂😂me too
haha bit late but same here xD

,,Spend 1 minute every single day" But my exam is tomorow ;-;
😃
Mine in two hours and I know nothing help
Good luck.
For the “next exam”, maybe 1 min review every day until the final exam may help, just a little bit though
Add more one mins to your studies. Gosh y were u lazy?
Dante: Today was very depressing day, for me, but your comment made me laugh. Thank You
Before I was so very lazy it comes to the point that I don't want to do anything, and then suddenly I realize that I haven't done anything I really like to do, so since I have experience that nonsense matter I try to make things step by step slowly so the result was I was doing little things for everyday and I achieve them by the time goes by...
I have practiced somewhat similar some twenty years ago. A friend helped me set a routine of six workouts (Jumping Jack, Push-Up, Crunch Middle, Crunch Left, Crunch Right, ...), and I began doing one of each on the first day, and no more. The second day, two of each. On the third, three of each, and so on. After two months, I could do sixty pushups, and the same of each other of the workouts, and was really in great shape, and this workout was a daily and easy routine.
This might work
I'll do it later
twee3 I did that a month ago and finally today was the day I actually watched it
Natsu Dragneel I'm gonna do it...

I procrastinated watching this video..
Been doing it for like a month. Just now finally watched it
Just watch this video for a minute every single day. It's a simple solution that will definitely help you in your life.
That's so funny, so did I
Nice original comment that you totally did not steal
Watched it few months ago now revisit it... Again... Hahaha
studying 1 minute each day
*NICE*
Geno ohh genius
What happens when we get tired of playing video games and start studying 15 hours o.o
I have also a problem with studying and I'm gonna try with 15 or 30 minutes because yea... 1 minute studying really makes no sence 😅
it will be still more than I do normally
Actually, it could work in a way. Not regular academics, but if you want to learn a foreign language. Studying a foreign language for 1 min each day may be enough to learn ONE word. If you can learn ONE new word a day in 30 years you will learn over 10,000 foreign language words.
"Every day at the same time" is already a problem for people with irregular schedules.
Piss off, negative Nellie!
And remember to come back whining, at the same time, every day!
I see that stiffyrabbit has chosen to troll for a minute each day. Well, done! :D
'do anything for 1 minute' is already a problem to me
cry me a river
Josh Fox Oh please, one minute is legit nothing
ND G sure, and if that's one minute after you wake up, or when you get home from work, that's doable, and could probably still form a habit. If it has to be at the same time every day, though, it might not be an option for people with, say, a rotating work schedule. If you work mornings, evenings, and nights, on different day's, a specific time isn't nessessarily realistic.
It's like the 10 pages/one chapter per day goal. Helps you build reading habit while not boring you out.
Do I have to read it in 60 seconds?
HypeTheGamer read it for 60 seconds a day for atleast a weak, then increase the time gradually.
It worked to me.I stopped procastinating and spending my time with an useless fb scroll.
If you think like the japanese behind this, you should think to read one or two pages per day.
It will make you want to read more one day for sure.
You know the idea behind it is that : after a while you will start to want to do it more than one minute per day.
Because after some time, you will start to want to do it more than just a minute, but you should continue to take your time with it and not rush too fast(, again ).
No surprise, this was in my recommendation,YT knew, i spend way more time on YT....
Sarcastic P J 😂😂😂😂😂
same. im very informed yet accomplishing nothing

As you can see, people, it's been a year. He isn't replying because he succeeded.
Wow. Great.
That is not what Kaizen means...Kaizen means improvement. So whenever you do project, you reflect and think about what you can fix in order to make it even better
Vmonster Army here 💖
Hi Vmonster,
You are right!
- KaizenMaster
I do this everyday
Vmonster so, where is that one minute technique come from?
I red the book "the compound effect" and the book aperently describes kaizen cause the book recomends exacly that ! puting a little affort in something but for a long period of time is more valuble than overworking on something for a week and than quiting thats how habits are born.I started to learn japanese for like 10 min a day and I could read katakana/hiragana after a month it was amazing!!
it's basically do what you want to achieve, one minute everyday, as time passes that one minute will become half an hour then so on..
Mystic Moonlight Or you continue doing it one minute every day.
Mystic Moonlight thanks dude,the video wasting my other 4:24 mins to watch it instead of summarizing it and by reading this,i avoided it.
no prob panda!
me,
lets open youtube only for 1 minute
AFTER AN HOUR
this technique sure does works
I told my boss that i wanted to work only 1 minute a day. He said OK!!!!!! This technique works. Unfortunately my paycheck was very low that week.
theselector was your request to improve your labour or wealth?? hehe ( I guess you didn't think it through!)🙄

That's not laziness, that's your attention span.
Umm generally unless it is a medical thing, a short attention span is a sign of laziness/giving-up easily.
