      I actually love it because it makes me laugh every time I hear it. I use it for my medication alarm in the evening and sometimes I’ll be in the library and forget I have it set until my backpack starts a-quacking away. Sometimes I’ll even have my headphones plugged into my computer and therefore completely oblivious to my duck-in-a-bag until someone comes to point it out. It makes people laugh every time and people always tell me it makes their day.

    To night owls: I used to be exactly that person who goes to sleep at 4 am until some things forced me to get up at that time (not super frequently, but still). Before that I thought it impossible to wake up so early. But I found out that waking up at 4 or 5 am is actually so much easier for me than say at 7 or 8. I have a theory, that it's easier precisely because 4am is still kind of night time, so it actually doesn't interfere that much with being a night owl because you still get a few hours without sun and people. At least that is how it works for me. But the most important thing - I get SO MUCH done in such days it's insane when compared to other days. I know everyone is different and I certainly don't imply everyone should wake up at 4am, but I just wanted to share my experience :)

    • @nat2057
      @nat2057 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I agree with this 100%, I only started waking up early when I heard someone say that most people aren't actually night owls, it's just that the human body is extremely good at adapting to circumstances. So now I wake up generally around 5 or 5:30, latest by 6 or 6:30 and I haven't felt this productive ever before

      @@kubradonmez5497 Not true at all! If you study law, you're better off reading once, creating revision cards as you go so that you can do active recall (learn by testing yourself) and spaced repetition (continuously testing yourself over long intervals). Re-reading has been proven to be a less effective technique when revising, you are simply wasting time.
      Ive been doing this since Alevels and its worked wonders for me! Its an approach a lot of medical students also use. You should try it, it will cut the amount of work you have to do in half! Why work hard when you can work smart?
      Sidenote: it always baffles me how schools never seem to prioritise teaching students the best ways to learn, and retain information. If I knew the techniques I know now, I'd have saved myself hours of time in high school. Should be compulsory classes early on teaching kids how to revise properly!

I then enjoy finishing my work earlier and having more down time in the evenings and getting more sleep! Even though I don't think I could get up at 4/5 am, 6:30am is defo early enough for me! X

      Sophie a friend of mine made it clear to me that changes like this - going from a night owl to a morning person - is totally possible and its a change that you can make suddenly , it’s just that often times we don’t wanna make those changes so we sort of hold ourselves back. To start waking up earlier you have to change what you do at night, that means changing your schedule so that you finish what u need to do earlier or just stopping yourself even if u haven’t finished your to do list or whatever. It’s a hard change but it’s completely possible.

    • @stephaniemena93
      @stephaniemena93 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sophie I knew going into third year the work load would be too much if I didn't structure my time abit better than I had been before - as for getting up early, I just decided to try it one day and see how I felt, even though I was super tired I ended up naturally going to bed earlier due to my sleepiness and it naturally became my routine. What I usually do is stop working around 5/6 (depending on what I am doing), make my dinner and have an hour or so just to chill, read a book or watch Netflix or something, then I go to bed usually around 9:30pm/10pm and try to wake up around 6:30...sometimes it best just to try it and see how you feel because you never know!!

    Respect. Law is dry, uninteresting and not that intellectually challenging. Which makes it all the more impressive that you have the drive and possibly a long term goal that makes you work so hard. You’ll do good!
    *woops literally the first video, i soon got recommended a video detailing your mental breakdown some months later from this one. Well, you still got this! I can’t imagine being motivated to put time in something like law, so you must have some innate strength and deeper motivation. Keep going if it’s still what you want or indeed whatever you find you want in life presently.
