Anyone know how to study, and be productive more, for long hours?

I get distracted a lot. I am in school and I work 3-4 days per week.

If you can give some good tips or strats that would be helpful, thanks.


find a nice song you like. sometimes the only way i can code is listening to music while the playlist is on repeat

learning under substance require that substance to remember the learned most of the time
same with music kinda

i would say sport in between
going for a 20 minute jogg in fresh air will boost you up for 1-2 hours of productive learning
i always took a bigger break than 10 minutes between learning, but it depends on what you learn i guess.

sometimes if the topic really got my interrest, i got audio books from it and listen to it in my freetime during something i enjoyed (gym,jogging,even playing video games)
idk how or if that worked, but it did at least boost my confidence :rofl:

if you sat and thought about it for 10 minutes, you’d know what you must do to succeed

question is, will you

let david goggins be your motivational guide

Why do you need long hours to learn?
Read it, live it, know it and move on.

If whats distracting is truly excess.. just drop it and prioritize the work.

Keep your more conscious moments for study.

You have to actually be interested in whatever it is you are studying.

You need not study more than you need to. After every class and/or topic, you should go through everything with a fine tooth comb, and assess what you do understand and what you do not understand.

If you fully understand everything, great, no need to study. For every topic you do not understand, read and ponder about it thoroughly until you do. To have the motivation to do this, you must be interested in the topic. Before an exam, briefly review everything.

Adderall


This can make you an absolute machine, but I can't speak to its ability to help you actually learn, the people I knew who did adderall would study like machines but that didn't translate well to exams
