    Many people thing that productivity is about getting as many things as possible done within a day. However that's not necessarily true. Productivity is more about getting the RIGHT things done within a day - and being able to achieve that consistently and long-term. In this video, I go through 7 ways in which you can significantly increase your productivity as a student.

    1. Parkinson's Law - Work expands to fill the time you allocate it. Give yourself artificial deadlines.
    2. Take a nap. Instead of fighting it, take a 20 minute nap and swim with the tide rather than against it.
    3. Minimum viable action - 'I'll just do 5 minutes' - it's likely that after 5 minutes, you'll continue!
    4. Imagine you're in a movie - you're the main character. Emerge victorious from your problems.
    5. Dynamic Studying - study multiple subjects in one study session - interleaving helps switch things up. Helps with the spacing effect.
    6. Have one clear goal - prioritise this above everything else (apart from health, that comes first).
    7. The White Flag - if your day doesn't go as planned and you aren't feeling it, just write the whole day off and go with the flow. Do it only once a month, when you NEED to. Learn what it is that makes you unproductive.

      trust me i have faced this issue too , i used to just go blank and get so frustrated staring at my book. i can empathise with you. i think your problem is your reading the material but your mind is not focused on it , it happens with me too, im not sure but search up symptoms of adhd , you might have it cause i have it and i face the exact same issue you just described. it could also be because your mind is bored, so it gets distracted, however dont worry, search up study music for adhd and listen to it while reading your book, it helps me focus alot better and my mind stays more alert , i hope it helps you too. below are some of my fav yt channels that make study music. moreover reading a book is a very very passive form of learning and is quite inaffective, it would be better if you sit with a notebook too and after finish reading one para, you analyze what is impt and write down a summary in your OWN WORDS in brief. then close your book and try to recall what you just read.

      also judging by your name, im guessing you are indian? i know sometimes the load of studying on us can be a lot to cope up with plus the external pressure from parents and society to excel in academics can really weigh us down but dont feel disheartened, we all have our different ways and paces of learning, some learn faster, some take more time but it doesnt mean you are dumb if you require more time to process information. it took me a long time to realize i was a visual learner and to find the right teachers(i cannot focus or retain info of teachers who read through slides, i need them to draw and write things down themselves on the board). studying from a plain old textbook is really hard for me, but once a teacher explains the topic to me on yt and then when i read the textbook , i find it easier to focus and analyze the meaning of what i just read. maybe you should try doing the same. i hope it helps you, i wish you all the best for whatever exam is it that youre studying for 😊👍🏻

    Napping is a good method but it is kind of flawed in my experience with it, because for me personally, I do get up on time but I end up not wanting to study after I get up.
    I'm sure that this must have the environment to do with it because my study table is not even half a meter from my bed.
