"It’s better to be in control of what is being sacrificed, rather than being forced to sacrifice everything." That hit!
This helped me so much! I overschedule and then feel bad about myself for not doing it all in one day. I have such a hard time estimating how long something will take.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
Schedule less [4:50]
Estimate tasks to take double the time [3:42]
Pick your losses [6:25]
Review less, learn more effectively [09:11]
Sacrifice short-term for long-term gain [09:25]

thanks!
what is HARPA AI and how does it work? is it like Eightify?
00:01 Creating schedules incorrectly can worsen time management.
01:18 Balancing work and study with a structured schedule.
02:29 Avoid overscheduling to increase productivity
03:42 Scheduling less and overestimating time enhances efficiency
04:57 Avoid over-scheduling to prevent falling behind.
06:24 Actively decide where and when to lose to stick to schedule.
07:49 Reviewing notes multiple times in a week is inefficient.
08:59 Effective time management leads to long-term efficiency gains.
I have to remind my clients of this! If you don't schedule breaks and you are always overscheduling, you're going to burn out! Thanks for sharing.
What if you actually can’t schedule breaks? This works for a work schedule but what if you are a SAHM? There’s no such thing as breaks.
This is one of the best videos I've seen. It's a healthy dose of "Keepin' it real".
I've independently come up with the doubling rule, particularly for lectures. Given the way I take notes, it actually takes me double the runtime of the lecture to actually get through.
Its been a few days since I have been struggling with my schedules and this video came like the solution walked straight into my doorsteps. Thank you
You truly care about your student thank you 🙂
Love the message…. “If you can’t win the game, at lest you can plan to win the championship” - thanks for the reminder to keep our eyes on the FINAL Prize!! ❤
This helped me sooo muuch!!
I've been struggling to stick to the schedule that I made, and having anxiety and panic attacks, this video came at the perfect time!! Thank you so much :)
Very Timely , thank you, Justin!
my goodness Justin, this is just what I needed to hear today, so thank you ❤
Over scheduling is smth I've struggled w since 2022, like I'd put so many things on my schedule and when I'm not able to execute even the first few tasks of the day then I'd feel bad and i wouldn't do anything at all. I legit figured it all out myself last month, whatever you said about over scheduling in this video, but it's okay I've learnt my lesson and i wouldn't repeat the same mistake in med school n be a bit better at scheduling my tasks
Thanks Justin I really needed this
Thank you justin , much appreciated content
G.O.A.T 💪🏽 Scheduling and time management are areas I’ve got a lot of low hanging fruit in marginal gains.
This video was so helpful. I have been preparing for my exams and I’ve always fallen behind my schedule. This really does make me feel good!
This video was really great, thank you so much!
Amazing video, tons of value here🔥.
Thank you for this.
Thanks Justin. The video is awesome.
Great Video! Thank you!
Amusing and spot-on. My secret, not mine, is that I'll work twice as hard and long and well when I know there's an excellent chance I'll succeed. That means I have to work to my strengths, which means I have to know them. It's the secret of successful schools, too - kids learn avidly, without discipline problems, when the teacher helps them individually based on their strengths and giving each one success experiences every day. Sound like sports coaching? No surprise, it is.
Thank you
thank you so much 😭😭😭😭
Brilliant Video
Thanks ❤
Hi Justin! Your video just popped onto my for you page and I thought hey I know Him! 😆 Great video! 😊
it's useful，I'll try😊
What are your thoughts on saying like - you fill the amount of time you have set with the task you planned. Great content.
You are a fucking legend
Hi Justin.
Considering you post weekly videos, I thought I might suggest that you could make a video about essay writing and preparing for writing essays in exam conditions. I understand you did post a video about essay writing around 2 years (very helpful) and I think it would be great for you to revisit it considering it is an important topic for many students!
Sir, could you not call me out like this? Death note of scheduling!!
Please make a video on how to learn during the lectures like u mentioned in 9:19
Just telling myself that it's going to take two times as long as I expect it to just kind of gave me the motivation to get started I think the stress of trying to get something done in an imaginary deadline that is very strict takes away the Joy from doing something joyful and the desire and motivation to get started on something that I don't want to do
"There's nothing wrong with being boring"
What's wrong with being sexy?
I love you man
This is great…if you are scheduling work or something 😅 I don’t see this working well for my schedule.
HELLO JUSTIN does you course also applicable in nursing student (me)who only have a 1 day free time
Leaving wiggle room in your schedule is a game-changer! Prioritizing and planning upfront helps maintain focus and handle the unexpected. ✨
hi sir i m from India. I need ur help regarding maths
the reality check was needed 🥴 I'll go touch some grass ty
is there a video on how to learn effectively through lectures? I pretty much use lectures as my primary source of studying
Where can I watch the full version of this video.
What’s the scheduling platform he is showing in here?
"theres nothing wrong with being boring" got me
Where can I find full video?
Hey Justin, I have a question I need answered if you can afford the time. What are your thoughts on re-learning if you've already started wrong on a subject? Begin again from the start, using the techniques you teach? It hasn't been long enough and I'm at the middle and feel like my whole approach has been wrong anyway!
If you really care about that subject, the answer should be obvious.
Not so obvious. I'm really quite dim you see. But I guess I'll test myself and see what I've really grasped and go from there. Thanks
The answer is not obvious, but I think it's all about perspective and context. If you deem the subject really important, either because you want to learn it in-depth, because you know it will be in an exam and if you don't know then you'll lose a lot of points etc. etc., it might be a good idea to begin again from the start, since you have a lot of doubts and gaps about the subject and if you keep going, those will get bigger instead of smaller. However, if your current understanding is not super bad and you feel confident enough in what you've learned, maybe you can do something in-between: if you have notes you've taken using other approaches, try using them as a base for other approaches, like creating mind maps for example or creating mental images or mental association of each concept and key word in the subject, etc. etc. You don't HAVE to start all over again. It can be something in the middle: not starting all over again, and not keeping it completely the same way either.
Can u do a video on maths?
I like turtles
if i had to guess, justin doesn’t believe in one system for all but to experiment with different things that are shown to work
@@jokullsindrigunnarsson8084 no , my intention was for a very general system, obe that has so many of his videos like " 5 techniques of every successful student" and " what do top 0.1% do "( I'm lazy here , it's the one video that got around 683k views ) , and chatGPT video ( which is there like a general idea about the learning process) and his ted ed talk ( for beginners) and his "5 core concepts for learning"
Those are all learning and how to be efficient in it , my problem was me lacking a growth mindset which he said that in his learner type video that I'm a karps , and I've went from that very very very disciplined guy and that fire would never stop motivated kind of guy , untill i saw my results ( btw first time trying his methods after binge watching his videos and writing notes like 20 notes processing and refining my methods that i didn't really try , because I'm a perfectionist who has a big good ego calling it " values " of me ) i actually kind of gave up , and I'm now trying to remember what was my routine like and no cognitive load is appearing so no results on how i was doing it , damn it if i thought about it ( hope Justin sees this )
If you're really serious, he already has his entire learning system available to you through his online program on ICanStudy, you just have to pay for it. His CZcams stuff barely touches the surface - but it's free.
If he did that no one is going to his ( I can study Cors )
@@CHARGING.TARTARUSThe system is just all the principles he teaches put together.
Can anyone help me
Whether SYNTOPICAL reading is taken as a priming step
Or the evaluation step?🙏
Great content in all your videos, big thank you for sharing. One thing I have trouble with is applying these techniques to a video course?
Another thing I see is that there's a lot of places for reflection. Reflecting is not bad in my opinion, but I think it's something that is better left off to come naturally and not in a kind of forced way of "oh, it's time to reflect, let's start reflecting". And to have the flexibility of letting it last whatever it lasts. That can help you feel more relaxed, chilled and focused for other activities.
There's nothing wrong with scheduling time for reflection
@@Somebodyelse141 Never said it was. I just don't think it works. If it works for you, that's fine.
Could you give some examples on what your mean by choose your loses ? You didnt give an example from Philip's calendar for this point.
It's about choosing what you want to focus on. For example, instead of going to the gym two times a week, he could go only one time. Perhaps he won't get the body he wants as fast or as effectively as he'd like (that's the loss), but he will have more time to focus on the other activities and then be more effective on those. Conversely, he could sacrifice lectures for example and then use that time to go a third time to the gym, maybe for even better results.
In general, it's about sacrificing expertise/time dedicated in one area to become more of an expert in another. It's a little bit like the saying "jack of all trades, master of none", in the sense that you try to become an expert and do well at everything, but because you are just human and cannot be excellent at everything, you end up failing in everything. Of course, it's not black or white, you can still be an expert in many areas, but this is the general idea.
More time management content!!!
I find your advice to give yourself more time than you deem necessary to contradict with your teaching in the ICanStudy course about Parkinson's law. As a result, students would be mislead to take more time to do their tasks, culminating in a higher chance of procrastination.
I think he means: be reasonable with the amount of time. Make estimations based on how much time it took you to complete similar activities in the past, and based on that, assign the double. The point is to keep in mind the unexpected things that may happen during your daily activities, but to not expand them to a point where there's so much free time that you can't fill said free time with anything (that's the other thing, ideally you have something specific planned for a frame of time, so you will finish it because you assigned a specific task to that time and you won't do anything less or anything more, and in the remaining time which you'll likely get unless a lot of unexpected stuff happens, just chill or do anything else, until the time for the next activity comes).
I came here from the Short Video, this long video is in no way related to the Content of the short.
Due to family reasons I quit school at age 9 (I'm 29 now!), I don't know how to study, I don't know how to plan or feel pressure.
I tried goal setting, reverse goal setting, time blocking, pomodoro with 1/3 or 1/4th the time as break, intermittent rewards, habit coupling..
But I can't seem to get things done, no matter what I try.
Is that something the course would help with?
$300 for me is saving up for 6 months, it's a lot. And I'm sure it's worth that. But I'd like to know if the course can really solve my problems.
Not expecting an answer but would definitely appreciate one.
Ty!
Join his course it will help every instructions are so clear and everything was broken into simple steps and it is definitely worth it
@@shiroi5672 You're probably right, the issue is that I struggle a ton when trying to snip information together from random resources. I don't know what's correct or relevant, this guy has so many videos and shorts it's frankly very overwhelming.
But this entire thing is a business first and foremost, and helping people is secondary. I get it, but that's probably reason enough for me to not consider the course regardless.
check your comments on your video
@@neyaneya5554 id recommend to spend less time consuming and more time applying what you learn :) i dont do it bcz i procrastinate a lot but i hope you will. best wishes my friend
@@marianosetula5666 Appreciate the comment, and likewise!
❤
I understand the doubling rule. But what about Parkinson's Law? Which states that work expands so as to fill the time available for it's completion. I'm terrible at estimating the amount of time a project is going to take to complete, so I've been recommended the doubling rule. But then Parkinson's law nags at me, wondering if I've created an environment to work slower.
💜💜💜
2:04 😂😂😂
interesting
Does the course have instructions for hanging?
what is the secret in passing maths i am stuggling a lot
My guy just told why we need he his chanel again at the end
Sad that I did not stick to my schedule to watch this
Like for the death note reference.
Love how you referred to them with they them pronouns❤
Don’t waste your time watching this video, you will not learn much, he wants you to buy his lecture about scheduling. Hope is more helpful than this video😂
💯🎉
nah it was good info
Thanks.
Justin videos were very insightful and helped me improve my efforts ,hes shares many high value stuff for free
It is wonderful that he chose to share these things with us for free. If you cannot afford the whole course you could still use these info in your own life. Thank you Justin.🎉
Whatever you say bbg
Time management is a myth and impossible. Time is fixed. It is an independent variable.
Attention can be managed. Time can not.
😆😆
Maybe philip should spend less time creating schedules. And if a schedule is going from 7am to 9pm, the problem is not the schedule, but the wrong belief, you are superhuman and can work and concentrate for 16h a day over weeks and months
But what about Parkinson’s law?
Bro is that all there is to productivity and studying
Omg this guy is TALKING to me. Overscheduling really puts you under so pressure and sometimes you just keep postponing and postponing.
😂😂😂
I like beluga whale ❤....
One needs to simplify one's life before this advice will work. One needs to have goals that are achievable if you finish ABC. Otherwise you are going to hell
