That feel when i've been doing this in College(Healthcare graduation course) unintentionally and decided to call it 'Tryhard mode'. Just stopped after i passed & beat the board exam because i thought it was super weird and different compared to the others. I'm actually in tears right now since this is Vindication for me. Edit: Goes without saying that once i stopped that, i completely started to suck lol.
I remember reading another one of barbara oakleys books about focused vs diffuse mode applied to math and it reaffirmed a lot of my own observarions on cognitive performance, it can be applied to a lot of things like if you try to have that overly focused / specific mode youll be too tunnelvisioned on some micro detail that you will miss the macro or bigger picture. Or "miss the forest for the trees". For problem solving a lot of the time you have to think outside the box, and be creative. If youre too tense (whether on a neuron level or a cognitive level) it doesnt allow you to think freely and broadly. Thats why people dont perform as well when they are stressed because everything about them is in a tense state. Looking at it through the effects of different drugs on cognition it also tells a similar story, adderall or caffeine work as a stimulant and constricts your blood vessels and makes your brain go faster and more pumped and focused but brain activity is more localized around our working active memory and can make it harder for someone to create more connections across different parts of the brain and affect the ability to be as creative, but then with other drugs that have the affect of increasing connections across the brain like weed and shrooms create a more global network of neuron connections allowing creativity to flow much more and often times artists in a rut make a breakthrough with this mode of cognition or people stuck on a math problem find the solution after taking a break and are in a more clear minded brain state. I believe it is explained also by conscious vs unconscious connections, the more focused and conscious you are, the more you get trip yourself up, but when in that more diffuse relaxed state, not distracted by your own consciousness, your unconscious mind is free to branch out and make connections and the answer often comes to us, an ephiphany. One other way to look at the effect of too much of a focused state is the stress / inflammation response in the body. If our brains get inflammed it clogs up the function, making neurons fire slower and blood doesnt flow as freely, so our brain isnt as free either. Some of the best things to help reset your brain to be more diffused and clear is a nap, exercise, or meditation.

As a persone with ADHD the focused and defused thinking is something we are really good at, between hyperfocus and hyperdistracted we get in the flow really easy (if we are interested) and when we hit a wall we often switch right away into hyperdistracted (you know the moment where you get frustrated and you want to throw something. Well we look around for something to throw forget we were going to throw it and start fiddling with it, our emotions disolve and then 15min later we remember we were working on something and come back to it.)
Almost all of this is brought up in Barbara Oakley's "A Mind For Numbers"/"Learning How To Learn" which you have often and justifiably given credit to. Still, I have to say, I absolutely love how you're putting it into these well-produced and concise videos that are able to reach and inspire so many people and also reflect your own journey/thoughts. Thanks, Tina!
Piggybacking off of Active Recall: I always approach my recall as if I'm going to have to explain the concept or train someone. How would I explain it to them? What are the key concepts if I trimmed down all the "fat"/excess info. This always helps me solidify the most important aspects of a topic in my mind and be able to recall it! I also make a point of practicing by ACTUALLY explaining to someone. Usually my partner, a friend, or even a coworker if we are chatting. I will always notice where I'm forgetting details of something, and then I make a point to go back and re-study that!
@@mementomori1022 You are aware that a toc is common practice everywhere right? From books to films. Even university professors encourage the use of summaries and mixed overview and detail-oriented reading techniques.. Work smarter not harder imo.
Active recall is extremely effective - though I rarely use the self-talking since I tend to be quiet out of habit. Depending on the subject, I either listen to a lecture/read then formulate my thoughts on a summary to immediately write it down(if I can properly learn mindmaps then this would be the time to form/add to one), or I apply new info to resolve a theoretical problem I create as I take in instead of doing the summary. The former is what I use for learning new concepts for software testing, and the later is something that's easier done when I'm working on python. Though when I start doing test cases I can see the later being extremely useful for software test practice. Though both techniques can be applied to every subject in some manner depending on the scope and type of concept being learned. Another for python that helps to study techniques I've already learned - Instead of partially ignoring the code that's being typed if I know/have used it before, I focus on whats being done and I mentally create the logical flow in my head as the program example is being typed out to illustrate the new concept. This way I'm already focused when the new concept is introduced along side the code I already know, and my understanding of old code is reinforced. Sometimes I may do this if hand writing code as well, but I've done less of this the farther into python I've gotten unless its a concept I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around. I used to just auto-pilot through parts I already know then try to focus when it gets to the new part, but I don't do that now and it especially helps when learning new subjects. It was more work trying to do this when I first it, but now its become habitual. I dunno if this qualifies as active recall, but its super effective - highly recommend. This would have made learning math/physics much easier. Oddly the environment design I've known about for awhile, but I didn't consider what it meant effectively nor a name to it other than the phrase my dad used: "Out of sight, out of mind." Its something he's said since I was young, and he used it for two things - if something isn't out on display then people are less likely to consider stealing from you, and the second is that you're less likely to think about something if its not within eye shot so keep snacks where you're unlikely to see them unless you specifically go looking haha But I guess that's more or less environment design, I just needed to orient it around studying. This is why I installed linux as dual boot and its my study environment. It took some time, but now when I login, I immediately start thinking about being productive. Once I'm in the mindset, then I can switch to Windows if needed without getting distracted since its easier for me to tell my brain "No" when I'm already rolling. When I login to windows first in contrast, my brain thinks Discord, Steam or whatever game I played last :p
Active recall helps me so much especially now in university when I do not understand a concept I find myself saying it over and over again until I get it. Thank you so much for these tips.
The importance of active recall can't be stressed enough. If I had to choose one thing that really helps me study and absorb new information, that's it.
I find it to be really helpful when you put timestamps in your videos. It helps me for priming and it helps me remember what I learned and what I didn't learn well because it chunks everything you talk about into 2-3 words.
Anime for life. Also I’m that type of person who just can’t help binge watching anime, but I also binge my homework afterwards when there’s like 3 hours left until school lol Meanwhile this anime nerd is still somehow the top of the class Welcome to the peak of procrastination
I came to TH-cam to learn how to trade after listening to a guy on radio talk about the importance of investing and how he made $460,000 in 4 months from $160k. Somehow this video has helped shed light on some things, but I'm confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas.

Build deliberate learning processes! Deliberate learning requires feedback, intentional thought, and interaction with others. The outcomes must be represented in actions and behavioral changes in order to solidify in our minds
Wow that was awesome. I would do priming so that I too could get excited about what I could learn and get a sense of the structure, but I didn't know that was a good technique. I felt so guilty that I would skip and not read in order. Thanks for sharing. I will definitely try incorporating that more guiltfree. The same applies to interleaving, but you are right about the caveats of it turning into multitasking and making sure to get a good foundation of the new subject first before doing that.
the focussed and diffused minset reminds me of actual search algorithms with exploration and exploitation phases. brilliant. like the sponsor of the video :p
That cookie analogy with point two is SO relatable! I don't have ANY snacks (outside of fruit) at home, because I would've eaten all of it. no matter WHAT it is, or how MUCH =D
Your videos are always so valuable Tina. I am going to focus on ‘priming’ more, because I always get bogged down in the details and it ends up taking me aaages to get through the content I’m learning. I have found that if I force myself to just overview the content once, without taking notes, when I go through the second time, I know what is important to take notes on. Ok, back to studying for my stats/SPSS assignment….ugh!…someone save me!
I think these are the basics of the depth of what Justin Sung teaches on youtube. He's actually an educator and has really informative content that makes deeper sense about how our brain works :)
Thanks you very much for your advices Tina , I'll start right to apply the first two techniques which are Active recall and environment design. Thank you so much 🥰
Omg i do priming all the time, it definitely helps and feels like a time save when you're actually learning it. Time for flashcards and to take a walk when i screw up 🤣
Great content! Questions: 1. I’ve heard that meditation helps getting quicker into this innovative state. So you exercise meditation every morning and then you can shave off some time from your walks? 2. Another method I’ve heard about is learning by explaining it to others. Does it work with you making these videos? I feel so lazy though. How can I do something smaller than making whole videos about it?
1. Walking is a form of meditation. 2a. You needn't actually have an "other" to explain it to. Talking to yourself AS IF you are explaining it to someone else works. (Having an "other" is better because you have a genuine, real-time feedback loop for testing your comprehension, i.e., they'll ask questions if you are unclear, but an imaginary friend is better than no friend at all.) 2b. One advantage of explaining it to others is that you approach learning differently if you know you're going to have to teach it to someone else. The stakes are higher.
Nice video Tina, thanks! Almost all the tips you've mentioned were familiar to me and I've been doing those since quite a while now, but unfortunately the 3rd one, i.e 'interleaving' hasn't been easy for me bcoz of the environment & surroundings that I'm in. Anyways, thanks again!
i do the active call makes me other people look crazy but its ok and the method you for a walk...and buy something but i added exercise like biking or do some calisthenics or doing some household chores makes me release the hindrance of studying it again....
Active tab thumb: "Don't work so hard" tab 1 (tina old video) "Why I work so hard" hummm, suspect Ok, it was just a fun coincidence (or not). BTW, You're doing great. Not hard, but clever.
Lol, no wonder why I'm better at solving questions when I get back from the bathroom. I love math. A couple of times by accident I focus on solving some math questions, then I get stuck. I brought this question with me when I had to go to the bathroom. As I sat there, the solution suddenly occurred to me. After that, when I get stuck on some questions for a while, I'll be like, how about a bathroom tour, to see how it goes LOL.
Excellent video! I couldn't talk that fast without stumbling all over my words. There is an interesting relationship between analysis and synthesis. Most of the time analysis is easier and synthesis is hard. It is easy to laugh at a funny joke, it is hard to think one up. It is easy to read a solution to a problem, it is hard to come up with a solution to a problem. But not always. It is easy to cook caramelized onions (synthesis). It is hard to write down the chemical reactions that are happening (analysis). If you are having trouble with synthesis (solving a problem), maybe you need to do some more analysis (study the material again and review the worked-out examples). Of course, there are the "trick questions" that you either know the critical trick or you don't. (What are the largest factors of 3591? (=60^2 - 3^2-(60+3)(60-3))) Don't get thrown off your game if you can't get these.
I've been doing the first method but didn't know the right term for it.. I thought that it was just me going crazy from all the studying lol(cuz often times, I barely notice that I was doing it!) But enough about that, I'll try using the other methods that you've taught us in this video! Thank you for sharing these cheats--err I mean methods~
Hello :D One of the 5 tips that you have mentioned, I have experience the "priming" in a harsh way. Priming helps serve as a guide. There is a subject called "regression" at VSE, Prague. I do not understand the subjects and its purpose. I thought I didnt need to think of the reason as I just need to pass the lesson.. but, I ended up with no motivation and failed it in my 1st semester. I am currently taking it in the second semester. I am still afraid of failing it but this time, I see the reason and the structure of the course. :D Hopefully, things will end differently.
So priming would be knowing what kind of content you will learning before getting into it or is it just consuming it before putting what you learned into practice?
![[MV] A leap of faith...ความเชื่อใจครั้งสุดท้าย (From "Petrichor the series")](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/U1piZH2CNXA/mqdefault.jpg)
1. active recall (talk to yourself about what you just learn, ask questions)
2. design environment (lock phone/fridge, go to library)
3. rotating between diffuse and focused mindset (if you are stuck, let your brain relax, then comeback to the problem)
4. interleaving (mix up different topics)
5. priming (introduce new content before learning it)
Bless you

It is also possible to produce superior performance provided you do something different from the majority. However, most of us tend to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market than to the cost of proper diversification.
Exactly, the trick is to diversify your investment, don't panic when everyone else do and invest consistently

i do the active call makes me other people look crazy but its ok and the method you for a walk...and buy something but i added exercise like biking or do some calisthenics or doing some household chores makes me release the hindrance of studying it again....
I look at studying as an agile process where you look at all the topics over and over until i understand them good enough to move to the next subject.

tab 1 (tina old video) "Why I work so hard"

The full title should be Tips to Learn Technical Things Faster so you can watch more ANIME. To be honest, is the only motivation you will ever need.
This video is so good
I would love to see a “how to make your own scoreboard” video!
I found myself doing those tips without realizing
Very good 👍 thanks 🙏
day 100 watching tina and luke's channels. I'm starting thinking that they know each other.
I'll beresearching.
you had me at anime, subbed!
Excellent video! I couldn't talk that fast without stumbling all over my words. There is an interesting relationship between analysis and synthesis. Most of the time analysis is easier and synthesis is hard. It is easy to laugh at a funny joke, it is hard to think one up. It is easy to read a solution to a problem, it is hard to come up with a solution to a problem. But not always. It is easy to cook caramelized onions (synthesis). It is hard to write down the chemical reactions that are happening (analysis). If you are having trouble with synthesis (solving a problem), maybe you need to do some more analysis (study the material again and review the worked-out examples). Of course, there are the "trick questions" that you either know the critical trick or you don't. (What are the largest factors of 3591? (=60^2 - 3^2-(60+3)(60-3))) Don't get thrown off your game if you can't get these.
if there is a cookie that is sitting there, I will 100% go and eat the cookie 🍪 😋 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm with you on this🤣
What an informative video!
I've been doing the first method but didn't know the right term for it.. I thought that it was just me going crazy from all the studying lol(cuz often times, I barely notice that I was doing it!) But enough about that, I'll try using the other methods that you've taught us in this video! Thank you for sharing these cheats--err I mean methods~
Hello :D
One of the 5 tips that you have mentioned, I have experience the "priming" in a harsh way. Priming helps serve as a guide. There is a subject called "regression" at VSE, Prague. I do not understand the subjects and its purpose. I thought I didnt need to think of the reason as I just need to pass the lesson.. but, I ended up with no motivation and failed it in my 1st semester. I am currently taking it in the second semester. I am still afraid of failing it but this time, I see the reason and the structure of the course. :D Hopefully, things will end differently.
So priming would be knowing what kind of content you will learning before getting into it or is it just consuming it before putting what you learned into practice?
Thanks
I also talk to youtube. By engaging with the content you learn more.
I love that you're lefty. 🙃
Also, nice video LOL
