I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, but as someone that has good grades, my advice is to always try to do the assignments as they come. Believe it or not, a lot of people are given for example, a math assignment due to nect week and do it a day before. DON'T DO THAT. Always try to do the work the same day it was assigned, and if it something like an essay or presentation, try to work an hour a day on it. The only way to fight procrastination is to actually sit down and do the thing. Stress comes once you have a thousand papers on your desk, two exams tomorrow for which you haven't studied, etc, don't let that happen. Every day work a little bit and eventually everything will get done
Thanks I will try it. I used to be straight A student but then my grades dropped. I don't know the reason but I guess I needed my mom's help for everything do so I was depressed. I thought I wasn't anybody without my parents. Imagine for years u depended on them and one day u suddenly realise the reality. I will try no , I will definitely do it Edit : i got 85% lol but now i am suffering again... XD
Exactly, organization and following your assignments in a "schedule like way" will improve your results so much more, since you won't struggle with work overload and if you do, you'll be able to direct yourself through the mess and organize it.
One thing I myself have noticed being a straight A student is most people who get good grades don’t always study all the time and aren’t obsessed with school all the time. We love normal lives too. However, we are willing to work hard and do stuff we don’t like to do. Like it might be tempting to skip a class and sleep/do other things or not pay attention. But most people who do good in school always do the hard work first so they can relax later without having it ruined by knowing you have stuff to do. Always do the hardest work first, even if you don’t want to!
I might not be a straight A student yet, but I realise the same recently. In fact it’s funny you mention that. I’ve noticed that when I become desperate for something it’s hard to get but when I just sit back and enjoy it, it comes to me nearly instantly.
I graduated with a 4.0/4.7, got into 16 colleges w over a million dollars in scholarships (this isn't to brag; it's just for credibility). Here's the things I do that set me apart from my classmates. 1. Ask lots of questions. Being inquisitive and wanting to learn more than is required helped me to understand the material at a deeper level than my peers. Stay after class to speak with your teacher about your personal interests in their field. They will respect you for this and it will feed your brain. Good students can answer multiple choice questions. Great students would prefer to take a written exam and would be able to write pages on a historical event's influence on modern culture, not just recite dates. 2. Take tons of notes on everything. Writing pages of notes during class allows you to cut down study time later. It engrains things into your brain much better and gives you a point of reference. Your notes are more valuable than your textbook in most instances. 3. Be grateful and give back. I was always the only student to say thank you to the teacher and ask if I could help with anything. This goes along with the next point. 4. Say yes! Go above and beyond. If a club needs a secretary or a volunteer to lead a project, do it! Lots of people act like they have too much on their plate, but honestly, I think most of us could take on more clubs, more classes, and more sports. I was always doing as many of those things as I was allowed to. If no one else volunteers to answer a question or something, do it yourself. Raise your hand in class so much that the teacher never wants to call on you anymore. 5. Don't get in the mindset of "I'm not good at x class, so I won't take it." You're only limiting yourself when you think that stuff. I got second in a huge engineering competition against nationally ranked schools with 6k students on a team of homeschool students with less than the maximum number of students and no engineering experience. You'll surprise yourself if you just go for it. 6. Stop worrying about what others think of you. If someone calls you a try-hard, its probably because they arent trying hard enough. The people who answer questions in class end up with higher marks, better letters of recommendation, and more opportunities. The people who make fun of others for "doing to much" end up in a mediocre job with a mediocre life, while the people that get involved, ask questions, and study are the ones that will end up at their dream school and working their dream job. 7. Surround yourself with like-minded people. I wasn't able to do this much in high school because I went to a small school, but now, as a college student, its so refreshing and energizing to meet people who want to talk about their goals. Get friends that want to have fun with you, but also value their career/education and aren't willing to jeopardize that. I just made a friend and I was able to talk about our career goals and academic interests for an hour, and then planned to go to a concert together as long as it doesn't get in the way of our academics. You don't know what you're missing until you get in a room of people equally as passionate about success in your field of interest as you are. 8. Try to get 8 hours of sleep, and don't let yourself sleep through the day even if you're up at late. Even if youre going to bed at 4am and getting only 7 hours of sleep, its a breeding ground for laziness and being unproductive. You'll miss meals, have a harder time getting your errands done if businesses are closed when you're awake, and will stay in bed more, even if you're awake in bed. I still struggle with this if I don't have classes or work, but try to make a habit of not staying up too late. People respect you, your studies/job, and your time more when you're able to wake up at 9am. 9. Just start the assignment. A 5 page paper sounds like a lot until you start writing and realize your opening paragraph is going to take up a whole page. Schoolwork is daunting to start but once you get started, it's never as bad as you think. 10. Be passionate about what you're doing! This is much easier said than done, but I did the best in classes where I was excited to take the exam. Don't just skip over classes you aren't as good at, but pursue something you're truly interested in. If you can, relate your more boring classes and assignments to things you are interested in. I had a hyper fixation on a certain disease and was able to incorporate it into plenty of projects throughout middle and high school, and would consider myself an expert on it by now. Your passion really shows in your work (I got into the top 2 programs for my major off of an essay I wrote very last minute but was more passionate about than any of my other essays.) This was kinda long and I have to say that some of these are harder than others. I have always been inquisitive and haven't really cared what people think, but I struggle with #8 and 9 quite a bit. Take it step by step and try to make clear goals. And remember, this is probably out of your comfort zone, which is a good thing! You can't grow if your life feels stagnant. Push yourself! You've got this and we can endure much more than we think.
Number 2 is so true, I had these LA questions I had to do and one day after getting inspiration (The Holy Spirit) I decided I’d start writing down every idea concerning the topic during class as they came. My oh my did that cut down my homework time, by A LOT
Hey, what are the best ways to get scholarships? I am a senior in high school and looking forward to get into college sometime soon, but what are the best websites to get a scholarships? The other day I was struggling to find one but at times I would feel like they’re a scammed. But so it would be blessing for you to help me out! Thanks.
I read every word of your comment and it seemed like I read it so fast. This is because your words are so on point, honest and relatable. It is like you were standing in front of me giving a speech saying these exact words. Your words make me want to do better. I love how you are demanding the reader to pay attention because what you have to say is important to yourself as well as the reader. You should create a platform, if desired, you would do very well. Thank you for your time. So appreciated.
Typing Everything so that I can remember everything about *"7 Daily Habits of High Performance Students"* 1. _Enter into a Flow State_ 2. _Have a Productive Daily Routine_ 3. _Surround Yourself with greatness_ 4. _Practice Gratitude_ 5. _Be willing to pay the price_ 6. _Adopt Growth Mindset_ 7. Can't Find the 7th habit
I am currently depressed, stressed and very dissatisfied with everything. I will try to do my best and follow these steps and do better. I will sacrifice. Thank you for this video
Self-discipline is very important ✅✅ We don't feel motivated every single day but if you have that discipline then you will put in the hard work regardless.
@@jean7464 well you just have to decide if you want to, say, watch youtube or do your school work. doing your school work will most definitely pay off because you can get it done right now and won't be burdened by it later. and youtube will still be there when you have free time. so choose the option that is better and just do it. don't be tempted by a youtube binge that'll last 2 hours. "when motivation fails, discipline will save you're life."
One thing which is very important to get straight A's according to my experience is to study daily and not to pile up work for another day... it's okay to feel demotivated sometimes but remember to enjoy ur life and the process of studying cause u can't force urself to study which you don't like or don't want... don't take pressure and most imp. never brag about it ...hope u like 👍
1. Enter the flow state for better focus, creativity, productivity 2. Plan out a daily routine 3. Show my your friends and I'll show you your future 4. Appreciate with what you have 5. Be willing to work to achieve that greatness (Hard work will pay off) 6. Growth mindset 7. Know what you want (Have a clear goal to work towards to)
I'm 16 and I started a gratitude journal a few months ago! Whenever I'm feeling a certain way such as, anger, sadness worried I just write about everything I'm grateful for!
@@ez7096 it’s a journal that you write about what you’re grateful for in. You can do it anytime or anywhere. I would recommend physically writing it over typing it.
As someone with a 4.3 g.p.a. + offices in multiple extracurriculars + sports, I will tell you there is no easy way to get good grades or to balance work and fun. You just have to work and do it as well as you can. If you can't manage the doing, you won't be able to get the grades you want or all your assignments done. Tips: Do homework whenever you have free time. If you're going to be waiting in line or stuck somewhere for an hour or so, study. I did most of my college entrance essays in lines at an amusement park (and got into everyone I wanted). Find someone with good grades you get along with. Whenever I don't understand a concept or homework I consult my friend and vice versa. We get higher scores because of this. Keep a planner and schedule when you will do things (not just the due date). I am a procrastinator and as a solution, I schedule when I will do an assignment. This way I prepare myself for the idea of work. The more prepared and aware I am, the easier it is to start, and once you start you most likely finish. Some advice. Good grades aren't the end all be all. They are nice and passing grades are needed for schooling, but they don't matter past that. Schooling isn't everyone's forte. It is not a measurement of intelligence but a measurement of one's memory retention and application. Don't judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree.
well your friends don't need to be physical , all your followers on social media count as friends and if u follow the unssuccesful and talentless people that's what you become
I feel so lost lately. I feel bed for myself for not being good enough in classes, not studying enough and not having the motivation and determination to study. Watching his video made me feel that I am capable of anything after being lost in track. Thank you so much for this video. ❤
Same here, and I start to feel bad about slacking off so much. I even started praying for God to give me more self-discipline. Still fighting this battle on the daily...Remember that you are worthy and that you can do so much with all of the resources that were put in you. You are strong, you are resourceful, and you will get through this!
@@zeny7288 thank you for this. i always keep on reminding myself than i’m doing good with every effort that i keep on giving with the things i do. hope you are doing well. keep safe! ❤
7 daily habits: 1) Enter Into a Flow State: Being completely in an activity for its own sake. The ego falls away. Time flies. Your whole being is involved, and you are using your skills to the utmost. You are completely focused on the task ahead. You forget about yourself and others. You feel happy and in control, become creative and productive. Train yourself to reach this flow state every time you are about to study. Find a quiet study place. Clear away all distractions and turn off notifications. 2) A productive daily routine. It needs to fit around your lifestyle. It reduces the need to make decisions throughout the day and it enables you to know what task you need to do that day. 3) Learn from others. Surround yourself with great people. “you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”. “Show me your friends and I will show you your future”. Learn from them, and if you can’t meet them IRL, connect with them online or listen to their podcasts, watch videos and read books. There are no excuses. 4) Practice Gratitude. On a daily basis. Fit it into your routine. When you wake up, before you go to bed or after dinner.. Think of all the incredible things in your life that you are grateful for. Feel the gratitude deep within yourself. You will feel much happier and content when you practice gratitude every day. 5) Be willing to pay the price. In order to achieve your (study) goals, you need to cut down on social time or time for hobbies/gym. Be aware of the costs for reaching that goal, and be prepared. 6) Adopt a growth mindset. Never stop learning to become better every single day. Small incremental improvements day by day will lead to huge results over years. Failures are a chance to improve. 7) Know what you want**. Set some daily goals and habits in place in order to achieve your biggest goal. What are you trying to achieve? And how will you design your life so that achieving it is possible?
1. Involve in flow. 2. Daily routine. 3. Learn from others. 4. Practise Gratitude. 5. Willing to pay price(sacrifice). 6. Adopt Growth Mindset. 7. What we actually wanted.(purpose should be strong)
There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.
I also did badly in high school and when I got into university I also made the choice to do whatever it takes to be a top performing student getting very high grades. It's four years later now and I'm still getting high grades. You either sacrifice your future or your time, it's your choice.
A tutor of mine once told me after a rather chaotic and bad exam, that he sees that this is not coming easy for me and that I'm struggeling, but he also sees that I'm fighting. And that pushed me so so much. I always felt invisible and dumb for not being able to keep up with others, but others were simply more experienced than me. I kept on going and managed to graduate with fairly good grades as well :) I really hope that once this pandemic is over, I can go see the tutor and tell him how much that one scentance meant to me.
I think another big habit of 4.0 gpa students is not viewing school as a chore, viewing it as learning. At least from my experiences, I can vouch that many of the high achieving students will often ask “Why?”. They will ask questions without fear to understand the subject material. If the professor is good and can explain the “why”, often times, students will thrive.
I was a steriotypical 4.0 GPA student before covid. After the lockdowns and taking exams at home, my grades dropped drastically. Which I do believe is ignoring the habits I used to have in the pre-covid era. This video gave me enough motivation to come back on track and become a 6.0 GPA student (Which isn't even a thing ;D). Thanks mate!
I'm a studying 13-year-old child, and I joined this field. I watched ted talks, psychology podcasts, Tom Bilyeu, and a lot more channels like yours. I've been watching these videos for a long time already, It helped me SO MUCH and I learned things advanced. I will definitely give credits to you In the future when I have already gotten into my dream university and already have a successful future ahead of me.
great start- get inspired , read books try to develop a right and independent thinking mentality , embrace failures in your life and the world will hug you with everything you want
As someone who just finished college, I learned from exams that the final results can be a reflection of not only study routine, ethic, etc but also who actually put in the work to earn those grades.
This video made me cry a little. I've struggled with severe depression, anxiety and ptsd (I had an abusive childhood.) for my entire life. I was unschooled my whole life, only learning addition and subtraction in math, and self teaching myself the English Language arts. I had a traumatic event happen in my family a little bit ago, and I realized something: No one is permanent. Nothing you do or attempt to do will keep someone you love, in your life, whether they leave or pass away. And so I decided, if no one is permanent, I want something that is permanent. So I decided to start studying for college. I decided to autodidact my way to success. But the struggle now, is motivating myself to study, and get to where I want to be. I looked for a while on TH-cam trying to find videos to help motivate me, and this one has done the trick. Thank you for this video. I am utterly grateful, and I'm looking forward to achieving so much in life
@@Lamoyac m bad in English 😂 but what I understand from his explanation is that the flow state Is the Time when u re extremely focus on your work and didn't think or give a Time for anything else 🙂 (sorry for my English i hope u understand what I wrote )
Now, one thing I tell everyone is learn about real estate. Repeat after me: real estate provides the highest returns, the greatest values and the least risk
As a student with a high GPA I am not much different from any other student. I don’t have any special habits, I procrastinate 95% of the time, can barely focus on staying present in lectures and constantly get distracted. Everyone just assumes I’m perfectly organized because I look put together and get good marks 😄 Most people I know are more organized than me. I just get good results because I focus on the criteria of the assignments and exams and do pretty much just that. I prepare for exams in 1-2 days because I procrastinate. Leaves me feeling stressed, but the information is so fresh in my mind I still remember it. The one thing that could potentially be different is that I rely on writing down all of the key points relevant for the exam in my own words, then reread twice before the exam (1 the night before (unless I’m pulling an all-nighter), and 2 right before the exam). I would not advise anyone to do it my way though. Maybe except for exam notes. Although I get things done it comes at a cost. The amount of stress and anxiety I get because of these habits are my primary reasons for change.
Worst than me. I review the night before or the day before and I am so rushed to the point that I finished reviewing in a day. Well, luckily I always listen to class discussion and it's just easy for me to review it. I am always shook tht I got high grades. But it was stressful so not recommended. LOL
I overcame procrastination by forcing myself, literally. It works!! You don't need to feel motivated to be able to start doing what you have to do for the day. Like, I tell myself to get up from bed, and grab the book I need to read, and so forth. What I mean, I really tell myself the most obvious thing I'm supposed to do. I don't tell myself, like, "hey you gotta study" instead, i tell myself, "hey, get up. grab your laptop. grab your book.....etc" i abide by, "JUST DO IT" mantra too then i find myself in the process of loving what I'm doing. Getting started is always hard, but just do it! Just start doing it! And practice self-compassion if the results didn't turn out perfectly right. Embrace the hardships. Enjoy the process.
I feel so lucky to have found your video in my first year of university. I've been having the motivation to improve myself because I wanted to do better in my academic journey, but not only that, I also really wanted to improve as a person, whereas to develop certain habits that are more productive. Thank you so much for making this video and making my journey easier because of all of the things that you shared in this video. Wish me luck :D
when this guy started describing his schedule i was just thinking about like... He doesn't cook? Doesn't go grocery shopping? Doesn't do house tasks? Doesn't clean? He doesn't even take time to eat according to his schedule lol... Because honestly those things take up A LOT of time... I live alone and this past year I struggled with college because I couldn't handle all the house tasks and school work. Both are very time consuming
i discovered this channel by this video, so i dont know abt the guy, but i think doing groceries and prepairing your meals enters in the category of habits and routines, like "meal prep routine", so you prepair your weekly meals by sunday, and just reheat them, and just do groceries whenever you dont have classes, since i think the guy doesnt have classes 7 days a week, and things like that. however, idk about cleaning your home, would be good to know
@@juliasousa6299 sincerely, im almost 100% sure it is unreal, no one can be that productive, its mentally unhealthy, no one can just not procrastinate 100% of the time. its fairly easy to realize that the "high performing students" struggle as much as non high performing people to do things, even with the habits, and every now and then they procrastinate, yt videos like this one almost every time romanticise the productivity thing
I can't believe that I actually shifted into a flow state watching this video after you explain the flow state part, the power of mental thinking is absolutely amazing. Couldn't thank you enough for this. This is exactly the gold that I'm looking for these past days. Thank you for spreading this beautiful content. Hope you have a nice day :) P.S. make more video like this please :)
Actually just pay attention in class. It’s really the most important part. For stuff like bio or psychology where you have to learn a bunch of stuff by memory you might also want to do active recall and fight the forgetting curve by repeating something at regular intervals but for any subject it’s always easiest to understand first. So pay attention in your classes and you’ll know more than the kid who made and ate a sandwich during the lecture but studied after for 3h
As someone who graduated with a 3.9 GPA in Biology, the biggest reason I did well was my determination to do the best I knew I could. If the class was hard and I got a B that was fine. But I KNEW when I had or had not worked my butt off to understand the material and study. I worked to the best of my abilities every time. Because I didn't want to regret not doing my best. Be proud of what you do. Always.
Today, I’m trying to introduce one habit at a time so it doesn’t feel like a chore. Today it’s just, clean up a little, take care of my baby sister and study a bit to pass my g1 test. I already got used to stay caught up. My work ethic is powered by anxiety, but I need to use it so once i get rid of the bad feeling, I still have the habit. Remember if you do your work right away, it means more free time later rather than leaving it last second. Make sure to take breaks. One step at a time if you’re an anxious person like me. Take breathing practices and watch movies or a series if you can’t calm down for a while.
As someone with a 4.0 as a college junior, although the formation of healthy habits surrounding academia is very important, one should really pay attention to how these high-achieving students behave in class. First, they are always there. For me, actively attending lectures and taking notes makes it so I rarely have to study countless hours for an exam. I know this is not how everyone is wired, though you would be shocked how many people skip class or do not pay attention during, and are then overwhelmed when an exam comes around and they do poorly.
having a growth mindset directly impacted my grades, I started doing better and achieving more when I told myself that I CAN improve and CAN get better rather than beating myself up over failures
i cant get it why he's so underrated. the type of content he delivers is rare and amazing unlike the typical advices like make a to do list make your bed, blablabla.
I thank Jesus for allowing me to run across this video tonight. You have brought pure joy into my life at 11:22 pm. I see myself in you so much that it has literally breathed life into me to pursue my dreams, career, and academics like never have before. Out of all of the videos I’ve watched over the past 30 days, THIS is the video that brought me to tears. I’ve dealt with laziness, procrastination, and bad habits all of my life, for example being late everywhere I go which is embarrassing, struggling with distractions, and putting off what needs to be done to sleep or do other preferred actions. Now I want to end those old habits, shed that skin, and grow into the absolute best version of myself. Because of your video, I finally see my full potential and now I want to actively start walking in my potential. It’s my turn to succeed instead of watching others do it and hoping it is I who will be next, I am next! I have confidence that I can do this. So thank you, thank you, thank you, once again for this amazing video. Your fan, Jayme
Thank you so much Elon for motivating me to study whenever I needed some motivation the most. Congrats for the milestone. And I think I like your videos in this way more. Keep motivating us, love and respect forever.
Really needed this but personally I like the motivational vids more because I have figured out what works for me...for those who are still struggling with that might find this helpful..post these vids once in a while so that your channel covers a wider section of people. Great work👍🏻 thanks and congrats 🎉
I’m not a high performing student but the advise I can give is: Having a good plan that you can follow before you start studying allowing for repition just work as hard as you can study as much as you can and do as many past paper questions as you can repeat repeat repeat, learn atopic to teach it Set rules for yourself to limit distractions. For example if you feel like watching Netflix or playing a video game, tell yourself “no I’m not allowed to” Engage in light exercise during your breaks, DO NOT USE THIS TIME TO SCROLL ON YOUR PHONE Limit your rewards and avoid instant gratification: this means that that you shouldn’t give into the impulse to reward yourself with unproductive fun because you feel you worked hard Study before you sleep and then revise first thing early in the morning Do not sacrifice 8 hours of sleep. However this can be allowed the day before your exam provided you dedicate time for a Power Nap Don’t spend time watching these kinds of videos thinking you are productive, just sit down and study.
This year at college I got into a straight A class, where I myself was an average student, and while everyone else’s gpa was 3.9 and higher, I got 2.8. Now I want to try my best this last year, thank you for the inspiration!
As an A student, I feel like the thing that helped me the most with school is exercise. This might sound weird but yes, exercising will help you get better grades (in most cases). Exercise helps calm down your brain and it helps you to be confident in yourself and your body. It takes all of the stress out of your mind and it's just great. I would feel more productive after working out and a lot more focused. If you want to, you can do this but Idk if it will work on others. This is really what helped me. Hope it helps!
Also, makes sure that you do ACTUAL exercising. You can't just exercise for 2 minutes and then just give up. You have to be active and you have to be motivated to do so. For a good mindset like men, I recommend exercising for 5 days a week for 20-50 minutes for each day that you exercise.
To my fellow procrastinators out there: I almost dropped out last year because I was constantly depressed because of too many assignments. Since I had a job as well, finishing homework was an uphill battle every time. But then I a savior. Her name is Sarah and her email is sarahlordeme@gmail.com. She handles all my assignments and I tell you, she’s brilliant. My grades have been excellent, and my worries are gone. Now I can finish college and work stress-free.
This video has some really awesome points and tips, but focuses a lot on GPA or getting good grades. Just never forget that getting a job in your field is the ultimate goal of going to college and as long as you can truthfully say you are understanding the material and are learning the material for the long-term, your GPA or where you rank in graduation doesn't mean anything. As someone who has a bachelor's degree, but not a job in that field I can say from experience that an 'A' in a class does not equivalate to understanding the material. Thankfully I'm going back to college here very soon with all new goals, a new attitude, and my past college mistakes that I'm learning from. If you are in school or will be soon, good luck to you and I hope you are learning a lot! 😀
Gratitude part is so important. The blessings that human beings have are way more than the indigations. That's why the Quran says: "And when We cause mankind to taste of mercy, they rejoice therein, but when some evil afflicts them because of (evil deeds and sins) that their (own) hands have sent forth, lo! They are in despair!" And this is what people do everyday, we have blissings that we cant even count around us, but we forget all of them and we focus on the one evil thing that afflicts us, we feel like its the end of the world.
I've been a straight-A student my whole life, but I'm about to go into high school, and I knew I needed to step things up. I've put off hard work for the entire summer, but this video is just what I needed. Once I saw this, I immediately knew that I had to make changes. Thank you so much for this!

@@whitneyjohnson2183 How do I know this is legit? How could you miraculously just meet this person? How are you gonna finish college if somebody else has been doing your work? Are you sure using someone to do your work is a good idea?
I love your video.I guess i will like your video and also view more.This video is definitely going to help me in my high school, I actually haven't being doing well in my past years in high school.You stated my problem I can't read for 30 minutes,it is either after 30 minute I will take my phone and play game or I will sleep.BUT this video has totally motivated me.L will put all my best to do good in my next class.THANKS
Thank you so much for this video. I am very grateful for it. For the last 3 weeks, I have been struggling with procrastination and my studies at my university. I am a first-year student doing a BS in business admin. This video makes me realize one important thing about studying. It's hard and I have to work hard. For a student to excel in school, he/she has to be willing to pay the price, put in the work, and persevere. I dropped out of university 5 years ago not knowing what I wanted to get out of it. Now I went back with a clear purpose.
When I play video games I can stay laser focused for hours. But when it comes to studying its so hard. I read paragraphs but don't retain any information I just read. I am trying to channel this focus into my job/school work.
I highly recomend to stop playing video games. It is only a compensation for Reallife goals because your Brain thinks you have accomplished someting. I used to play video games too but I now know that it only distracts you from living your own life and growth.
This came up on my recommended now, and I'm glad I clicked! So well explained, and informative. Entering into a state of flow definitely makes thing easier, thanks for the great advice :)
Whether or not they are necessary, research papers can be depressing. Before I found Sarah, I was ready to quit school because of too much research paper homework and other assignments. Sarah is my academic helper who takes care of all my homework, and I tell you what? She is a genius. I can’t remember the last time I was worried about grades or deadlines.

This came at the perfect time, Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.
@@Florencecoxx That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors..
@Queen OF Love This is the Fourth time I'm seeing someone talking about Mr Gary as there are lot of testimonies about him, do you know him ? if yes , did you invest with him?
Hi😊, I have a question ! Your routine of 7 days a week was 5:00 : Wake up 6:30 : Gym 7:45 : Library 9:00 : Class 3:30 Library 6:00: Video editing 8:00: Relax 9:00 Bed But you said that you was studying at least 8h/ day during 6 day a week. In that routine I don’t count 8h/day in the library studying. My question is : Did you count your class hours like studies hours too in your day ? I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much for your help ! 🙏🏾
I know many of you get stressed watching this video. Let me tell you that these habits do not work for everyone. I managed to graduate top 10% and never had any kind of routines. Just make sure you take care of yourself, eat healthy, do sports, make friends and always keep your goals in mind.
This video was really great! It has given me fresh motivation to study - I have been doing badly when I know I have the potential to do well, and the way you turned your grades around at university really made me think that I could actually do it (I have just started my final year of school). Also you have a really nice voice to listen to! Thank you!
Success is dependent on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man who doesn't have an investment, and i will tell you how soon he will go broke. Investment is building a safe heaven for the future. With the right choice of Investment that has at least 1% minimum risk and with an expert guidance, profit and Intrest is 100% guaranteed.
I agree with you. I had a senior colleague at work who was living well but never had an Investment, unfortunately his work was terminated,so he went from living well to surviving with his family.If he had invested when he was still working, he would have had another source of income.
Investing is a prior decision to make for the future. If you are seeing this and don't have an investment, please do make plans to invest so you don't end up like my senior colleague at work.
This made so much sense, just like he said " for one to invest, the person have to consider an appropriate choice of Investment with at least one percent minimum risk , profits margin, a mentor and expertise to guide and help you manage your Investment portfolio.
With the help of Angelina Morris who works with an Investment organisation in England, I have been investing in the Foreign exchange market, Stock, and dividends with her expertise and guidance,she has helped me make huge profit on my Investment portfolio.
@@halasultan6439 Oh its great to see someone who also benefit's from the services of Angelina Morris indeed it's a small world. She is my portfolio manager and mentor too for 2 years and still counting and I have made profit of 93,795 usd from my initial amount of 5100 usd with her managing my portfolio.
I agree with most of the things except for hanging out with people who are only rich and succesful. I've learned a lot from people around me who were not materially succesful but wise.
Not exactly For example, lets say my friend isn’t popular or the best in school, but he tries so hard every day to improve himself little by little Even though he isn’t rich or popular or whatever, the resilience and will he has would make me a better person from being around him
To my fellow procrastinators out there: I almost dropped out last year because I was constantly depressed because of too many assignments. Since I had a job as well, finishing homework was an uphill battle every time. But then I a savior. Her name is Sarah and her email is sarahlordeme@gmail.com. She handles all my assignments and I tell you, she’s brilliant. My grades have been excellent, and my worries are gone. Now I can finish college and work stress-free.
I got straight A's for the first time in my life this past year and a half another thing I would say which seems a little obvious but I used to be so bad at it, was just really listening and taking good notes in class. Often I would try to find another way to learn the material or just learn through the homework, but when tests came around I felt like I knew nothing. Learning the material well in class and studying BY doing homework helps so much. If you actually just learn the material well, your classes will become a lot easier.
I am so grateful to have come in contact with such exciting habits. Honestly I am a beginner in programming, I really started badly over time. Getting to this channel is the result of my last poor performance which I don't want to repeat. But with the habits learnt from this tutorial and the help of God, I am sure there will be a different in my field. I really appreciate .
Looked through the comments and saw some really great advice, and felt like sharing what I do in more detail. As a straight-A student, I do tend to cram studying near the exam because I find it hard to study in advance - it makes me forget everything I've studied. If it's a very long coverage though, then I'll space out my study sessions by working backwards based on the exam date. My work ethic is the opposite with homework, though. I will always do homework the moment they get assigned to prevent things from piling up. Not much advice I can give on how to get started with tasks other than "just do it," then the desire to continue and finish it once you're in the zone follows afterward. At the end of the day, it all boils down to what work ethic suits you the most. I have a flexible to-do list spanning 8 days in advance so that I can plan out what tasks I'll do for each day. The keyword here is "flexible," meaning if I don't end up finishing something, I shouldn't force myself to finish it for that day and lose sleep over it. I simply move it to the next day. This is really great if you have a lot of subjects to juggle and tend to forget to get to a deadline until its the day before or the day of. I like calendaring deadlines the moment I get assigned them, otherwise, my chaotic brain will forget haha! Some additional tips on my end: For those who are comfortable with their eating habits, I would suggest having a snack to munch on - works for me all the time because I easily get bored with doing things if I don't eat. Recently, I discovered that listening to lo-fi beats, relaxing jazz, and soft videogame soundtracks put me in a state of mind conducive to working. I don't really know if I can recommend doing that because others might just fall asleep haha! Good luck to all the students out there!
Because I'm not a regular student and have a full time job while having classes at night every day, whenever I watch these videos I always get frustrated because most of the things people suggest, I can't do because I don't have the time or opportunity and I feel like sometimes kids that went to college and had their parents pay for everything don't understand how previleged they are and think that we don't get good grades because we don't want to or because we're lazy (I've been told that multiple times) but for the first time I feel like I can follow most of your tips. They're reasonable, doable and aren't just "study 10 hours a day and you'll make it" type bs. Thank you for sharing!
Very enlightening. I have practiced some of the habits already like #1, #3, #5, #6 and #7. not perfectly but fairly well. But that means the daily routine habit is what I am seriously struggling with. It is still quite hard to pull off. But emphasizing it in this video really makes me consider it seriously. For practicing gratitude, yeah, I sort of get distracted about the current issues in our country especially when cancel culture is a thing. But sometime I actually deactivate all my social media account to take a break from it. I did that once for a year. It was a very productive year, indeed. THANKS FOR ALL THE TIPS. At least I have done most of it. I just have to do the rest and make it part of my system. I always believe in the phrase "systems shape behavior'. You just earned a like and new subscriber. Keep it up!
I feared going to college because I never actually studied hardcore before and I wasn’t the smartest person but eventually after having such a fall out in my life I decided to go and at least try. Fast forward to now im about to go in my second semester at uni and really college isn’t as bad as I thought. If you take time to study and read your text books then you will honestly be fine but since I never studied that hard a day in my life it was really difficult at first. Great tip make sure to look up your schools professor rate to choose and pick good professors
Hey projectelon I'm now in 9th grade but I barely passed 8th I never really cared at first I was always telling myself as long as I pass I don't care but when I saw the results I was so ashamed but now I'm changing my mindset I'm going to work hard so I can get a scholarship to a school in Japan i really appreciate you for making this video it's helping me out a lot ❤️
this really helped. ever since i graduated middle school, my grades went downhill and i didn't know what i want to do with my life. i recently failed my 2nd assessment, and i felt like a failure. right now im trying to find motivation again.
As someone who gets decent grades, I actually don't follow many tips tho, although I do find myself in some in the video... my advice is to keep things simple. The more you complicate it, the worse your performance gets. People said to not do homework on deadline days, but I usually feel at ease doing it during that and still get good marks. (sometimes I feel like I did the work better on deadline days too) Don't get yourself fixed into a certain pattern, and also try to make life as productive as you can. Believe it or not, I normally study for the test just right before the test begins and still, everything goes fine, not like I recommend this but just choose whatever you feel is the best, if it doesn't work, change it to another way. Take it easy, school is a playground for students to improve, not a workplace for adults.
Had the same motivation coming into grad school but with everything that’s going on, it’s been a shit show for me and I am running out of fuel. Really admire people who are as motivated as ever 🙌
I found you and your channel when I closed the university's student portal. I had just messaged Professor about how I am feeling overwhelmed, frustrated because I am falling behind again. I started watching your first video, and I could relate to you. I subscribed to your channel and clicked for all notifications. I love the two videos I have watched (6 rules for a productive life and 7 rules for achieving a 4.0 and becoming a better student). These hit me like a hammer hitting a nail on its head. I look forward to watching your other videos. Thank you for the solid advice! I will be in touch! I am applying all your rules to being successful. PERIOD!!!
Congratulations Mike! 🥳 You deserve all these subscribers, all the hard work you put into this channel, by developing us and making sure that we get the best quality videos and responding to all our comments! Can you make a video about studying early in the morning vs studing late at night? There are many videos like that on yt but I really wanna hear ur opinion about it. Once again congratulations! 👏
A video about studying early in the morning vs studying late at night is a really good idea! A lot of it will depend on whether you're an early bird or a night owl - and what time during the day you focus better. I'll put it in the list of videos to make. Thanks so much for the suggestion and the kind words Aarya :) :)

Congrats
@@gamementistsetsa2174 What do you agree with Gamementis? :D
@Nancy Jackson Thanks sooo much Nancy!
@@MikeDeeOfficial you're welcome 💜.
I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, but as someone that has good grades, my advice is to always try to do the assignments as they come. Believe it or not, a lot of people are given for example, a math assignment due to nect week and do it a day before. DON'T DO THAT. Always try to do the work the same day it was assigned, and if it something like an essay or presentation, try to work an hour a day on it. The only way to fight procrastination is to actually sit down and do the thing. Stress comes once you have a thousand papers on your desk, two exams tomorrow for which you haven't studied, etc, don't let that happen. Every day work a little bit and eventually everything will get done
Thanks I will try it. I used to be straight A student but then my grades dropped. I don't know the reason but I guess I needed my mom's help for everything do so I was depressed. I thought I wasn't anybody without my parents. Imagine for years u depended on them and one day u suddenly realise the reality. I will try no , I will definitely do it
Edit : i got 85% lol but now i am suffering again... XD
@@susantrimble7663 I'm really glad I could help
Exactly, organization and following your assignments in a "schedule like way" will improve your results so much more, since you won't struggle with work overload and if you do, you'll be able to direct yourself through the mess and organize it.
Thats what i need to work on as well lol, thank you for the reminder!
Yes! At the latest do it the next day.
One thing I myself have noticed being a straight A student is most people who get good grades don’t always study all the time and aren’t obsessed with school all the time. We love normal lives too. However, we are willing to work hard and do stuff we don’t like to do. Like it might be tempting to skip a class and sleep/do other things or not pay attention. But most people who do good in school always do the hard work first so they can relax later without having it ruined by knowing you have stuff to do. Always do the hardest work first, even if you don’t want to!
I agree
So true
I might not be a straight A student yet, but I realise the same recently. In fact it’s funny you mention that. I’ve noticed that when I become desperate for something it’s hard to get but when I just sit back and enjoy it, it comes to me nearly instantly.
agreed
So true, usually I want to do all my work first and later enjoy my free time without worrying that I need to do something
I graduated with a 4.0/4.7, got into 16 colleges w over a million dollars in scholarships (this isn't to brag; it's just for credibility). Here's the things I do that set me apart from my classmates.
1. Ask lots of questions. Being inquisitive and wanting to learn more than is required helped me to understand the material at a deeper level than my peers. Stay after class to speak with your teacher about your personal interests in their field. They will respect you for this and it will feed your brain. Good students can answer multiple choice questions. Great students would prefer to take a written exam and would be able to write pages on a historical event's influence on modern culture, not just recite dates.
2. Take tons of notes on everything. Writing pages of notes during class allows you to cut down study time later. It engrains things into your brain much better and gives you a point of reference. Your notes are more valuable than your textbook in most instances.
3. Be grateful and give back. I was always the only student to say thank you to the teacher and ask if I could help with anything. This goes along with the next point.
4. Say yes! Go above and beyond. If a club needs a secretary or a volunteer to lead a project, do it! Lots of people act like they have too much on their plate, but honestly, I think most of us could take on more clubs, more classes, and more sports. I was always doing as many of those things as I was allowed to. If no one else volunteers to answer a question or something, do it yourself. Raise your hand in class so much that the teacher never wants to call on you anymore.
5. Don't get in the mindset of "I'm not good at x class, so I won't take it." You're only limiting yourself when you think that stuff. I got second in a huge engineering competition against nationally ranked schools with 6k students on a team of homeschool students with less than the maximum number of students and no engineering experience. You'll surprise yourself if you just go for it.
6. Stop worrying about what others think of you. If someone calls you a try-hard, its probably because they arent trying hard enough. The people who answer questions in class end up with higher marks, better letters of recommendation, and more opportunities. The people who make fun of others for "doing to much" end up in a mediocre job with a mediocre life, while the people that get involved, ask questions, and study are the ones that will end up at their dream school and working their dream job.
7. Surround yourself with like-minded people. I wasn't able to do this much in high school because I went to a small school, but now, as a college student, its so refreshing and energizing to meet people who want to talk about their goals. Get friends that want to have fun with you, but also value their career/education and aren't willing to jeopardize that. I just made a friend and I was able to talk about our career goals and academic interests for an hour, and then planned to go to a concert together as long as it doesn't get in the way of our academics. You don't know what you're missing until you get in a room of people equally as passionate about success in your field of interest as you are.
8. Try to get 8 hours of sleep, and don't let yourself sleep through the day even if you're up at late. Even if youre going to bed at 4am and getting only 7 hours of sleep, its a breeding ground for laziness and being unproductive. You'll miss meals, have a harder time getting your errands done if businesses are closed when you're awake, and will stay in bed more, even if you're awake in bed. I still struggle with this if I don't have classes or work, but try to make a habit of not staying up too late. People respect you, your studies/job, and your time more when you're able to wake up at 9am.
9. Just start the assignment. A 5 page paper sounds like a lot until you start writing and realize your opening paragraph is going to take up a whole page. Schoolwork is daunting to start but once you get started, it's never as bad as you think.
10. Be passionate about what you're doing! This is much easier said than done, but I did the best in classes where I was excited to take the exam. Don't just skip over classes you aren't as good at, but pursue something you're truly interested in. If you can, relate your more boring classes and assignments to things you are interested in. I had a hyper fixation on a certain disease and was able to incorporate it into plenty of projects throughout middle and high school, and would consider myself an expert on it by now. Your passion really shows in your work (I got into the top 2 programs for my major off of an essay I wrote very last minute but was more passionate about than any of my other essays.)
This was kinda long and I have to say that some of these are harder than others. I have always been inquisitive and haven't really cared what people think, but I struggle with #8 and 9 quite a bit. Take it step by step and try to make clear goals. And remember, this is probably out of your comfort zone, which is a good thing! You can't grow if your life feels stagnant. Push yourself! You've got this and we can endure much more than we think.
Thank u so much for willing to sacrifice from your time and write this whole essay here :3 i loved it i wanna keep contact with u how?
Number 2 is so true, I had these LA questions I had to do and one day after getting inspiration (The Holy Spirit) I decided I’d start writing down every idea concerning the topic during class as they came. My oh my did that cut down my homework time, by A LOT
This was like the best motivation like omg this was smth i needed fr.... Thank u so much < 3
Hey, what are the best ways to get scholarships? I am a senior in high school and looking forward to get into college sometime soon, but what are the best websites to get a scholarships? The other day I was struggling to find one but at times I would feel like they’re a scammed. But so it would be blessing for you to help me out! Thanks.
I read every word of your comment and it seemed like I read it so fast. This is because your words are so on point, honest and relatable. It is like you were standing in front of me giving a speech saying these exact words. Your words make me want to do better. I love how you are demanding the reader to pay attention because what you have to say is important to yourself as well as the reader. You should create a platform, if desired, you would do very well.

Self-discipline is very important ✅✅ We don't feel motivated every single day but if you have that discipline then you will put in the hard work regardless.
How do you get that ?
@@jean7464 well you just have to decide if you want to, say, watch youtube or do your school work. doing your school work will most definitely pay off because you can get it done right now and won't be burdened by it later. and youtube will still be there when you have free time. so choose the option that is better and just do it. don't be tempted by a youtube binge that'll last 2 hours.
"when motivation fails, discipline will save you're life."
Yes! This applies to everything. Do I want to get up at ungodly hours of the morning to work and exercise? No, not really. Am I going to anyway? Yes.
How to put self discipline when we are always get sleepy during the work-time

One thing which is very important to get straight A's according to my experience is to study daily and not to pile up work for another day... it's okay to feel demotivated sometimes but remember to enjoy ur life and the process of studying cause u can't force urself to study which you don't like or don't want... don't take pressure and most imp. never brag about it ...hope u like 👍
Absolutely

May I ask what a gratitude journal is and how can it be helpful? :)
@@ez7096 it’s a journal that you write about what you’re grateful for in. You can do it anytime or anywhere. I would recommend physically writing it over typing it.
@@traywaters1575 Okay thank you so much!
You are doing great!! Are you keeping it?
As someone with a 4.3 g.p.a. + offices in multiple extracurriculars + sports, I will tell you there is no easy way to get good grades or to balance work and fun. You just have to work and do it as well as you can. If you can't manage the doing, you won't be able to get the grades you want or all your assignments done.
Tips:
Do homework whenever you have free time. If you're going to be waiting in line or stuck somewhere for an hour or so, study. I did most of my college entrance essays in lines at an amusement park (and got into everyone I wanted).
Find someone with good grades you get along with. Whenever I don't understand a concept or homework I consult my friend and vice versa. We get higher scores because of this.
Keep a planner and schedule when you will do things (not just the due date). I am a procrastinator and as a solution, I schedule when I will do an assignment. This way I prepare myself for the idea of work. The more prepared and aware I am, the easier it is to start, and once you start you most likely finish.
Some advice. Good grades aren't the end all be all. They are nice and passing grades are needed for schooling, but they don't matter past that. Schooling isn't everyone's forte. It is not a measurement of intelligence but a measurement of one's memory retention and application. Don't judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree.
Thank you

7 daily habits:
1) Enter Into a Flow State: Being completely in an activity for its own sake. The ego falls away. Time flies. Your whole being is involved, and you are using your skills to the utmost. You are completely focused on the task ahead. You forget about yourself and others. You feel happy and in control, become creative and productive.
Train yourself to reach this flow state every time you are about to study. Find a quiet study place. Clear away all distractions and turn off notifications.
2) A productive daily routine. It needs to fit around your lifestyle. It reduces the need to make decisions throughout the day and it enables you to know what task you need to do that day.
3) Learn from others. Surround yourself with great people. “you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”. “Show me your friends and I will show you your future”. Learn from them, and if you can’t meet them IRL, connect with them online or listen to their podcasts, watch videos and read books. There are no excuses.
4) Practice Gratitude. On a daily basis. Fit it into your routine. When you wake up, before you go to bed or after dinner.. Think of all the incredible things in your life that you are grateful for. Feel the gratitude deep within yourself. You will feel much happier and content when you practice gratitude every day.
5) Be willing to pay the price. In order to achieve your (study) goals, you need to cut down on social time or time for hobbies/gym. Be aware of the costs for reaching that goal, and be prepared.
6) Adopt a growth mindset. Never stop learning to become better every single day. Small incremental improvements day by day will lead to huge results over years. Failures are a chance to improve.
7) Know what you want**. Set some daily goals and habits in place in order to achieve your biggest goal. What are you trying to achieve? And how will you design your life so that achieving it is possible?
Thank you!!!
I love that first point a lot!!
1. Involve in flow.
2. Daily routine.
3. Learn from others.
4. Practise Gratitude.
5. Willing to pay price(sacrifice).
6. Adopt Growth Mindset.
7. What we actually wanted.(purpose should be strong)

There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.
I also did badly in high school and when I got into university I also made the choice to do whatever it takes to be a top performing student getting very high grades. It's four years later now and I'm still getting high grades. You either sacrifice your future or your time, it's your choice.

And that pushed me so so much. I always felt invisible and dumb for not being able to keep up with others, but others were simply more experienced than me. I kept on going and managed to graduate with fairly good grades as well :)
I really hope that once this pandemic is over, I can go see the tutor and tell him how much that one scentance meant to me.

I think another big habit of 4.0 gpa students is not viewing school as a chore, viewing it as learning. At least from my experiences, I can vouch that many of the high achieving students will often ask “Why?”. They will ask questions without fear to understand the subject material. If the professor is good and can explain the “why”, often times, students will thrive.
I was a steriotypical 4.0 GPA student before covid. After the lockdowns and taking exams at home, my grades dropped drastically. Which I do believe is ignoring the habits I used to have in the pre-covid era. This video gave me enough motivation to come back on track and become a 6.0 GPA student (Which isn't even a thing ;D). Thanks mate!
That's awesome that you're aiming for a 6.0 GPA haha. Good luck Sanjanitha! :D

I'm a studying 13-year-old child, and I joined this field. I watched ted talks, psychology podcasts, Tom Bilyeu, and a lot more channels like yours. I've been watching these videos for a long time already, It helped me SO MUCH and I learned things advanced. I will definitely give credits to you In the future when I have already gotten into my dream university and already have a successful future ahead of me.

As someone who just finished college, I learned from exams that the final results can be a reflection of not only study routine, ethic, etc but also who actually put in the work to earn those grades.
This video made me cry a little. I've struggled with severe depression, anxiety and ptsd (I had an abusive childhood.) for my entire life. I was unschooled my whole life, only learning addition and subtraction in math, and self teaching myself the English Language arts. I had a traumatic event happen in my family a little bit ago, and I realized something: No one is permanent. Nothing you do or attempt to do will keep someone you love, in your life, whether they leave or pass away. And so I decided, if no one is permanent, I want something that is permanent. So I decided to start studying for college. I decided to autodidact my way to success. But the struggle now, is motivating myself to study, and get to where I want to be. I looked for a while on TH-cam trying to find videos to help motivate me, and this one has done the trick. Thank you for this video. I am utterly grateful, and I'm looking forward to achieving so much in life
God bless you abundantly in Jesus mighty name. Keep pushing. You will definitely succeed!
god bless, keep working hard , cause its all gonna pay off one day. Best of luck
Im crying reading ur comment. I rly hope you are doing well and don't give up! 💕💕 You are very brave!
Well your comment motivated me! 💕
Yea right, Depression is just a decision 💀

As a student with a high GPA I am not much different from any other student. I don’t have any special habits, I procrastinate 95% of the time, can barely focus on staying present in lectures and constantly get distracted. Everyone just assumes I’m perfectly organized because I look put together and get good marks 😄 Most people I know are more organized than me. I just get good results because I focus on the criteria of the assignments and exams and do pretty much just that. I prepare for exams in 1-2 days because I procrastinate. Leaves me feeling stressed, but the information is so fresh in my mind I still remember it. The one thing that could potentially be different is that I rely on writing down all of the key points relevant for the exam in my own words, then reread twice before the exam (1 the night before (unless I’m pulling an all-nighter), and 2 right before the exam). I would not advise anyone to do it my way though. Maybe except for exam notes. Although I get things done it comes at a cost. The amount of stress and anxiety I get because of these habits are my primary reasons for change.
Honestly same
Worst than me. I review the night before or the day before and I am so rushed to the point that I finished reviewing in a day. Well, luckily I always listen to class discussion and it's just easy for me to review it. I am always shook tht I got high grades. But it was stressful so not recommended. LOL
What is a GPA?
@@iamfifi_maqula It's the average of your grades.
@@soulstylista oh okay thank you
I overcame procrastination by forcing myself, literally.
It works!! You don't need to feel motivated to be able to start doing what you have to do for the day. Like, I tell myself to get up from bed, and grab the book I need to read, and so forth. What I mean, I really tell myself the most obvious thing I'm supposed to do. I don't tell myself, like, "hey you gotta study" instead, i tell myself, "hey, get up. grab your laptop. grab your book.....etc" i abide by, "JUST DO IT" mantra too then i find myself in the process of loving what I'm doing. Getting started is always hard, but just do it! Just start doing it! And practice self-compassion if the results didn't turn out perfectly right. Embrace the hardships. Enjoy the process.
Also “Finish what you started” is another good instruction which should be written on our desks so we see it every day.

Idk... that's enough or not , but you're watching this video and trying that's really enough!!!❤️
I feel so lucky to have found your video in my first year of university. I've been having the motivation to improve myself because I wanted to do better in my academic journey, but not only that, I also really wanted to improve as a person, whereas to develop certain habits that are more productive. Thank you so much for making this video and making my journey easier because of all of the things that you shared in this video. Wish me luck :D
Good morning…how is it going ?implementing new skills discovered from this channel ?please share
"The more knowledgeable you become the better decisions you can make and the more successful you can be."
when this guy started describing his schedule i was just thinking about like... He doesn't cook? Doesn't go grocery shopping? Doesn't do house tasks? Doesn't clean? He doesn't even take time to eat according to his schedule lol... Because honestly those things take up A LOT of time... I live alone and this past year I struggled with college because I couldn't handle all the house tasks and school work. Both are very time consuming
i discovered this channel by this video, so i dont know abt the guy, but i think doing groceries and prepairing your meals enters in the category of habits and routines, like "meal prep routine", so you prepair your weekly meals by sunday, and just reheat them, and just do groceries whenever you dont have classes, since i think the guy doesnt have classes 7 days a week, and things like that. however, idk about cleaning your home, would be good to know
@@rafaelsollino6048 i guess that makes sense but the routine he described still feels unrealistic, at least to me
@@juliasousa6299 sincerely, im almost 100% sure it is unreal, no one can be that productive, its mentally unhealthy, no one can just not procrastinate 100% of the time. its fairly easy to realize that the "high performing students" struggle as much as non high performing people to do things, even with the habits, and every now and then they procrastinate, yt videos like this one almost every time romanticise the productivity thing
@@rafaelsollino6048 exactly... The overall message is of course very positive but also unrealistic and sugar coated :/
This my current struggle! Like bruh! I have laundry, groceries, car repairs, i need to cook and shower 😩
Like damn i must have no life to succeed
I can't believe that I actually shifted into a flow state watching this video after you explain the flow state part, the power of mental thinking is absolutely amazing. Couldn't thank you enough for this. This is exactly the gold that I'm looking for these past days. Thank you for spreading this beautiful content. Hope you have a nice day :)
P.S. make more video like this please :)
Actually just pay attention in class. It’s really the most important part. For stuff like bio or psychology where you have to learn a bunch of stuff by memory you might also want to do active recall and fight the forgetting curve by repeating something at regular intervals but for any subject it’s always easiest to understand first. So pay attention in your classes and you’ll know more than the kid who made and ate a sandwich during the lecture but studied after for 3h
As someone who graduated with a 3.9 GPA in Biology, the biggest reason I did well was my determination to do the best I knew I could. If the class was hard and I got a B that was fine. But I KNEW when I had or had not worked my butt off to understand the material and study. I worked to the best of my abilities every time. Because I didn't want to regret not doing my best.
Be proud of what you do. Always.
Today, I’m trying to introduce one habit at a time so it doesn’t feel like a chore. Today it’s just, clean up a little, take care of my baby sister and study a bit to pass my g1 test. I already got used to stay caught up. My work ethic is powered by anxiety, but I need to use it so once i get rid of the bad feeling, I still have the habit.
Remember if you do your work right away, it means more free time later rather than leaving it last second. Make sure to take breaks.
One step at a time if you’re an anxious person like me.
Take breathing practices and watch movies or a series if you can’t calm down for a while.
As someone with a 4.0 as a college junior, although the formation of healthy habits surrounding academia is very important, one should really pay attention to how these high-achieving students behave in class. First, they are always there. For me, actively attending lectures and taking notes makes it so I rarely have to study countless hours for an exam. I know this is not how everyone is wired, though you would be shocked how many people skip class or do not pay attention during, and are then overwhelmed when an exam comes around and they do poorly.
And when we are absent we make sure we get everything we missed asap
having a growth mindset directly impacted my grades, I started doing better and achieving more when I told myself that I CAN improve and CAN get better rather than beating myself up over failures
i cant get it why he's so underrated. the type of content he delivers is rare and amazing unlike the typical advices like make a to do list make your bed, blablabla.
I thank Jesus for allowing me to run across this video tonight. You have brought pure joy into my life at 11:22 pm. I see myself in you so much that it has literally breathed life into me to pursue my dreams, career, and academics like never have before. Out of all of the videos I’ve watched over the past 30 days, THIS is the video that brought me to tears. I’ve dealt with laziness, procrastination, and bad habits all of my life, for example being late everywhere I go which is embarrassing, struggling with distractions, and putting off what needs to be done to sleep or do other preferred actions. Now I want to end those old habits, shed that skin, and grow into the absolute best version of myself. Because of your video, I finally see my full potential and now I want to actively start walking in my potential. It’s my turn to succeed instead of watching others do it and hoping it is I who will be next, I am next! I have confidence that I can do this.
So thank you, thank you, thank you, once again for this amazing video.
Your fan, Jayme
Weird right, at exactly 11:25pm, few days to my test I'm reading this a year later, having facing the same problem
Creativity meets sarkasm. Love it.
Just one question. Why doing what Jesus say? Boredom?
Thank you so much Elon for motivating me to study whenever I needed some motivation the most. Congrats for the milestone. And I think I like your videos in this way more. Keep motivating us, love and respect forever.
I'm glad you like these kinds of videos more, because I like making them more haha
Really needed this but personally I like the motivational vids more because I have figured out what works for me...for those who are still struggling with that might find this helpful..post these vids once in a while so that your channel covers a wider section of people. Great work👍🏻 thanks and congrats 🎉
Thank you so much for the feedback Tani! I will definitely keep this in mind :)
What works for you
I’m not a high performing student but the advise I can give is:
Having a good plan that you can follow before you start studying allowing for repition
just work as hard as you can
study as much as you can
and do as many past paper questions as you can
repeat repeat repeat,
learn atopic to teach it
Set rules for yourself to limit distractions. For example if you feel like watching Netflix or playing a video game, tell yourself “no I’m not allowed to”
Engage in light exercise during your breaks, DO NOT USE THIS TIME TO SCROLL ON YOUR PHONE
Limit your rewards and avoid instant gratification: this means that that you shouldn’t give into the impulse to reward yourself with unproductive fun because you feel you worked hard
Study before you sleep and then revise first thing early in the morning
Do not sacrifice 8 hours of sleep. However this can be allowed the day before your exam provided you dedicate time for a Power Nap
Don’t spend time watching these kinds of videos thinking you are productive, just sit down and study.
This year at college I got into a straight A class, where I myself was an average student, and while everyone else’s gpa was 3.9 and higher, I got 2.8. Now I want to try my best this last year, thank you for the inspiration!
As an A student, I feel like the thing that helped me the most with school is exercise. This might sound weird but yes, exercising will help you get better grades (in most cases). Exercise helps calm down your brain and it helps you to be confident in yourself and your body. It takes all of the stress out of your mind and it's just great. I would feel more productive after working out and a lot more focused. If you want to, you can do this but Idk if it will work on others. This is really what helped me. Hope it helps!
Also, makes sure that you do ACTUAL exercising. You can't just exercise for 2 minutes and then just give up. You have to be active and you have to be motivated to do so. For a good mindset like men, I recommend exercising for 5 days a week for 20-50 minutes for each day that you exercise.
Will try
Our teacher at Harry S Truman collage asked us all to watch your video as an assignment. and it really worthed!

To my fellow procrastinators out there: I almost dropped out last year because I was constantly depressed because of too many assignments. Since I had a job as well, finishing homework was an uphill battle every time. But then I a savior. Her name is Sarah and her email is sarahlordeme@gmail.com. She handles all my assignments and I tell you, she’s brilliant. My grades have been excellent, and my worries are gone. Now I can finish college and work stress-free.
This video has some really awesome points and tips, but focuses a lot on GPA or getting good grades. Just never forget that getting a job in your field is the ultimate goal of going to college and as long as you can truthfully say you are understanding the material and are learning the material for the long-term, your GPA or where you rank in graduation doesn't mean anything.
As someone who has a bachelor's degree, but not a job in that field I can say from experience that an 'A' in a class does not equivalate to understanding the material. Thankfully I'm going back to college here very soon with all new goals, a new attitude, and my past college mistakes that I'm learning from.
If you are in school or will be soon, good luck to you and I hope you are learning a lot! 😀
You are at school to learn (and to learn how to learn), learning and understanding the material comes first, then comes the grade
Gratitude part is so important. The blessings that human beings have are way more than the indigations. That's why the Quran says: "And when We cause mankind to taste of mercy, they rejoice therein, but when some evil afflicts them because of (evil deeds and sins) that their (own) hands have sent forth, lo! They are in despair!" And this is what people do everyday, we have blissings that we cant even count around us, but we forget all of them and we focus on the one evil thing that afflicts us, we feel like its the end of the world.
I've been a straight-A student my whole life, but I'm about to go into high school, and I knew I needed to step things up. I've put off hard work for the entire summer, but this video is just what I needed. Once I saw this, I immediately knew that I had to make changes. Thank you so much for this!

Thank you so much for this video. I am very grateful for it. For the last 3 weeks, I have been struggling with procrastination and my studies at my university. I am a first-year student doing a BS in business admin. This video makes me realize one important thing about studying. It's hard and I have to work hard. For a student to excel in school, he/she has to be willing to pay the price, put in the work, and persevere. I dropped out of university 5 years ago not knowing what I wanted to get out of it. Now I went back with a clear purpose.
When I play video games I can stay laser focused for hours. But when it comes to studying its so hard. I read paragraphs but don't retain any information I just read. I am trying to channel this focus into my job/school work.
I highly recomend to stop playing video games. It is only a compensation for Reallife goals because your Brain thinks you have accomplished someting. I used to play video games too but I now know that it only distracts you from living your own life and growth.
@@jonawirth901 not completely stop. Just lessen your time with it. But if the case is that you get distracted easily, DELETE THE GAME!
This came up on my recommended now, and I'm glad I clicked! So well explained, and informative. Entering into a state of flow definitely makes thing easier, thanks for the great advice :)
Whether or not they are necessary, research papers can be depressing. Before I found Sarah, I was ready to quit school because of too much research paper homework and other assignments.

This came at the perfect time, Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@Florencecoxx That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks.

I want your help; I am having a problem learning how to study, getting the most important part.
Hi😊, I have a question !
Your routine of 7 days a week was
5:00 : Wake up
6:30 : Gym
7:45 : Library
9:00 : Class
3:30 Library
6:00: Video editing
8:00: Relax
9:00 Bed
But you said that you was studying at least 8h/ day during 6 day a week. In that routine I don’t count 8h/day in the library studying.
My question is : Did you count your class hours like studies hours too in your day ?
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much for your help ! 🙏🏾
Nice
I know many of you get stressed watching this video. Let me tell you that these habits do not work for everyone. I managed to graduate top 10% and never had any kind of routines. Just make sure you take care of yourself, eat healthy, do sports, make friends and always keep your goals in mind.
Thank you very much you have made my academic life colourful
This video was really great! It has given me fresh motivation to study - I have been doing badly when I know I have the potential to do well, and the way you turned your grades around at university really made me think that I could actually do it (I have just started my final year of school). Also you have a really nice voice to listen to! Thank you!
Success is dependent on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man who doesn't have an investment, and i will tell you how soon he will go broke. Investment is building a safe heaven for the future. With the right choice of Investment that has at least 1% minimum risk and with an expert guidance, profit and Intrest is 100% guaranteed.
I agree with you. I had a senior colleague at work who was living well but never had an Investment, unfortunately his work was terminated,so he went from living well to surviving with his family.If he had invested when he was still working, he would have had another source of income.
Investing is a prior decision to make for the future. If you are seeing this and don't have an investment, please do make plans to invest so you don't end up like my senior colleague at work.
This made so much sense, just like he said " for one to invest, the person have to consider an appropriate choice of Investment with at least one percent minimum risk , profits margin, a mentor and expertise to guide and help you manage your Investment portfolio.
With the help of Angelina Morris who works with an Investment organisation in England, I have been investing in the Foreign exchange market, Stock, and dividends with her expertise and guidance,she has helped me make huge profit on my Investment portfolio.
@@halasultan6439 Oh its great to see someone who also benefit's from the services of Angelina Morris indeed it's a small world.

I agree with most of the things except for hanging out with people who are only rich and succesful. I've learned a lot from people around me who were not materially succesful but wise.

You have to be wise to be rich and succesful
@@baby1621 that's not what he says though. he hangs out with rich people with 'lamborghinis"
@Woozie I understand that but the way he defines ambitious and succesful people by the cars they drive is just too materialistic.
Not exactly
For example, lets say my friend isn’t popular or the best in school, but he tries so hard every day to improve himself little by little
Even though he isn’t rich or popular or whatever, the resilience and will he has would make me a better person from being around him

Thank you! I'm currently in uni and have been struggling, hoping to go into the upcoming year with a grow mindset and accomplish all my goals
I appreciate how these habits integrate happiness and bring us towards our goals in the long run. 💯
I got straight A's for the first time in my life this past year and a half another thing I would say which seems a little obvious but I used to be so bad at it, was just really listening and taking good notes in class. Often I would try to find another way to learn the material or just learn through the homework, but when tests came around I felt like I knew nothing. Learning the material well in class and studying BY doing homework helps so much. If you actually just learn the material well, your classes will become a lot easier.
PLEASE do a seperate video on the flow-state! It would be SO helpful!
Yes me too
I am so grateful to have come in contact with such exciting habits.
Honestly I am a beginner in programming, I really started badly over time. Getting to this channel is the result of my last poor performance which I don't want to repeat. But with the habits learnt from this tutorial and the help of God, I am sure there will be a different in my field. I really appreciate .
Subscribed ur channel! Watching ur videos reminded me how important it is to be productive and get rid of procastination!! Hats off to u!!❤❤❤
This video is valuable. Literally. Thank you.
I'm so glad you like it Nayaan! :D :D :D
Looked through the comments and saw some really great advice, and felt like sharing what I do in more detail.
As a straight-A student, I do tend to cram studying near the exam because I find it hard to study in advance - it makes me forget everything I've studied. If it's a very long coverage though, then I'll space out my study sessions by working backwards based on the exam date. My work ethic is the opposite with homework, though. I will always do homework the moment they get assigned to prevent things from piling up. Not much advice I can give on how to get started with tasks other than "just do it," then the desire to continue and finish it once you're in the zone follows afterward. At the end of the day, it all boils down to what work ethic suits you the most.
I have a flexible to-do list spanning 8 days in advance so that I can plan out what tasks I'll do for each day. The keyword here is "flexible," meaning if I don't end up finishing something, I shouldn't force myself to finish it for that day and lose sleep over it. I simply move it to the next day. This is really great if you have a lot of subjects to juggle and tend to forget to get to a deadline until its the day before or the day of. I like calendaring deadlines the moment I get assigned them, otherwise, my chaotic brain will forget haha!
Some additional tips on my end: For those who are comfortable with their eating habits, I would suggest having a snack to munch on - works for me all the time because I easily get bored with doing things if I don't eat. Recently, I discovered that listening to lo-fi beats, relaxing jazz, and soft videogame soundtracks put me in a state of mind conducive to working. I don't really know if I can recommend doing that because others might just fall asleep haha!
Good luck to all the students out there!
Because I'm not a regular student and have a full time job while having classes at night every day, whenever I watch these videos I always get frustrated because most of the things people suggest, I can't do because I don't have the time or opportunity and I feel like sometimes kids that went to college and had their parents pay for everything don't understand how previleged they are and think that we don't get good grades because we don't want to or because we're lazy (I've been told that multiple times) but for the first time I feel like I can follow most of your tips. They're reasonable, doable and aren't just "study 10 hours a day and you'll make it" type bs. Thank you for sharing!
Very enlightening. I have practiced some of the habits already like #1, #3, #5, #6 and #7. not perfectly but fairly well. But that means the daily routine habit is what I am seriously struggling with. It is still quite hard to pull off. But emphasizing it in this video really makes me consider it seriously. For practicing gratitude, yeah, I sort of get distracted about the current issues in our country especially when cancel culture is a thing. But sometime I actually deactivate all my social media account to take a break from it. I did that once for a year. It was a very productive year, indeed. THANKS FOR ALL THE TIPS. At least I have done most of it. I just have to do the rest and make it part of my system. I always believe in the phrase "systems shape behavior'. You just earned a like and new subscriber. Keep it up!
I feared going to college because I never actually studied hardcore before and I wasn’t the smartest person but eventually after having such a fall out in my life I decided to go and at least try. Fast forward to now im about to go in my second semester at uni and really college isn’t as bad as I thought. If you take time to study and read your text books then you will honestly be fine but since I never studied that hard a day in my life it was really difficult at first. Great tip make sure to look up your schools professor rate to choose and pick good professors
thank you for sharing this! it somehow lifts my spirits that *anyone* can become a high performance student as long as they work hard for it.
What helps me is motivation. determination,and planning ahead. Your video was very inspirational.
Hey projectelon I'm now in 9th grade but I barely passed 8th I never really cared at first I was always telling myself as long as I pass I don't care but when I saw the results I was so ashamed but now I'm changing my mindset I'm going to work hard so I can get a scholarship to a school in Japan i really appreciate you for making this video it's helping me out a lot ❤️
this really helped. ever since i graduated middle school, my grades went downhill and i didn't know what i want to do with my life. i recently failed my 2nd assessment, and i felt like a failure. right now im trying to find motivation again.
As someone who gets decent grades, I actually don't follow many tips tho, although I do find myself in some in the video... my advice is to keep things simple. The more you complicate it, the worse your performance gets. People said to not do homework on deadline days, but I usually feel at ease doing it during that and still get good marks. (sometimes I feel like I did the work better on deadline days too) Don't get yourself fixed into a certain pattern, and also try to make life as productive as you can. Believe it or not, I normally study for the test just right before the test begins and still, everything goes fine, not like I recommend this but just choose whatever you feel is the best, if it doesn't work, change it to another way. Take it easy, school is a playground for students to improve, not a workplace for adults.
Had the same motivation coming into grad school but with everything that’s going on, it’s been a shit show for me and I am running out of fuel. Really admire people who are as motivated as ever 🙌
I found you and your channel when I closed the university's student portal. I had just messaged Professor about how I am feeling overwhelmed, frustrated because I am falling behind again. I started watching your first video, and I could relate to you. I subscribed to your channel and clicked for all notifications. I love the two videos I have watched (6 rules for a productive life and 7 rules for achieving a 4.0 and becoming a better student). These hit me like a hammer hitting a nail on its head. I look forward to watching your other videos. Thank you for the solid advice! I will be in touch! I am applying all your rules to being successful. PERIOD!!!
He has the most pleasant personality in presenting and it feels really comfortable to watch. Thank you for the tips.
Congratulations Mike! 🥳 You deserve all these subscribers, all the hard work you put into this channel, by developing us and making sure that we get the best quality videos and responding to all our comments!
Can you make a video about studying early in the morning vs studing late at night? There are many videos like that on yt but I really wanna hear ur opinion about it.
Once again congratulations! 👏
A video about studying early in the morning vs studying late at night is a really good idea! A lot of it will depend on whether you're an early bird or a night owl - and what time during the day you focus better. I'll put it in the list of videos to make. Thanks so much for the suggestion and the kind words Aarya :) :)
@@MikeDeeOfficial happy to help:)
I’m in high school and this really helped me 🥺I’m Writing my finals next year, Promise I won’t let you down.
