Hi, your videos have been so helpful, mostly wanted to say thank you for putting your time and efforts into your videos ❤️. But i have a question (or request?) Can you tell me or recommend to me the best method to study Further Mathematical problems, physics and such. I'm writing 2 exams coming up for me and maths (especially physics) is a HUGE struggle for me, so please any advice? Thank you so much ❤️
uhh, i think u just gotta tell this-
Study hard morons or u will fail and that little fun u were trying to have will lead u to regret for 1 year, so study !!!!
I suggest bro you need fix study time
Hey bro, is it possible for you to make these things like video game quests in notion??
Give your editor a raise. He's really good at hooking attention.

@@99Gara99 what does it mean by up?
1. Track your progress
2. Break down big goals into smaller ones (and allow yourself to fail them at first)
3. Be consistent and make studying collaborative
Thank you
"allow yourself to fail them at first"
rigorous helicopter-ish (insert mandatory educational instances) programmes: and i take that personally.
Ugh 😩 nobody looks at the roots
I almost forgot everything after the video ended
Thanks

1. Remove the consequence of failure
2. Make smaller goals that are more attainable
3. Study groups
4. Reward yourself for accomplishing reasonable goals
get feedback, track progress(self assessment, grow tables)
thank you!
Thanks!
How to turn studying into a video game
1) get clear about everything you have to study ><
( Don't let the uncertainty consume you . Know your enemy first )
2) smaller tasks with rewards : )
( After knowing your enemy aka course that you got to study it must seem like ' omg this is so big !" But but but break down your big enemy into smaller pieces and Destroy it day by day, little by little)
3 ) Teammates !!!
( Ofc it'll be more fun to defeat your enemy with people who also want to defeat the same enemy . So get yourself some study buddies )
Great summary 👌🏼👌🏼
@@CajunKoiAcademy thank you ✨✨
Thank you V from BTS
thanks saved me from watching the video
tysm, my dumbass forgot everything as soon as the outro played
Can't thank you enough for giving me hope that I can still start from the start and will be able to pass the exams
You got this! We’re all here for you
What exam dude,Boards/NEET/JEE

@@mangalmurtiagrawal303 bro i failed 5 subs in 2nd sem of bcom now I have to give 3rd sems 6 + 2nd sems 5 subs
And I am not studied at all till now. But the MF INSIDE OF ME KNOW IF HE TRY HARD THIS SHITTY EXAMS ARE NOTHING.
@@POLO120FPS That's pretty messed up bro, but give it all you got and be satisfied that you tried your best.
I liked the part where you said that video games gives constant feedback at where you currently are and what and how you exactly need to do things to go to the next level. If we can integrate that kind of system in our daily lives we can literary achieve god mode for our characters in real life.😄
That's one of the reason tutors are an effective way for learning. They're like the game's progress log and reward notification.
corrupt soshieties: nope. non. nah. never. stay astray.
I played sims constantly once, and now i can see clearly which people is having outdoor aspiration, hopeless romatic, short fuse, and what items/gift that make them happy. I also saw these people with that life indicator bar, which person have best social gauge with me and which person i need to improve. The idea of studying as a quest interest me but still, there is no real reward for that…
I teach at university and play games, so the crossover was really interesting. I think I'll try to develop a "login reward" system for my class-something to the effect of stacking bonus points for consistent homework submissions (I'll iron out the details). Thanks for the content!
I'm very interested about what kind of reward you're going to do!
analogies are the best. not having metrics for progress really resonated with me. it really is hard to gauge how well you're doing and how far you've gone. i'm going to try to make a stats board for myself with varying topics. love the videos and brand! great work! 🤙🤙
Awesome idea! Would love to see what it looks like once you finish
1. Create a robust and detailed plan (Games have clear defined path and goal)
2. Break down big goals into smaller ones. (Make your tasks low risk)
3. Create a study group and create a accountability system. (Instilling FOMO)
4. Every task should have a reward as big as the task. (What gets rewarded get repeated)
*This is the best self-improvement channel out there.* No BS, just straight to facts and / or personal experiences. I like that, keep up the amazing work.
I think I'll try to use the idea of breaking down the big challenge into small goals, but I have a problem when I study with a group of people. I usually can't focus on my own learning and also people get to ask me more questions than I usually make, which sometimes are even irrelevant for me.
Don't group study it never helps
@@funforall-brawlstars yeah, it's better to be alone.
👀 we got you covered! Check back in a couple weeks for our studying in groups guide!

I'm in 1st year of Med School and going to give my university exams in Feb.
This video has got me a clear picture of what my mistakes were during this 1 year..
I and few of my friends have been following you guys and I have to say the content is really unique and needs a lot of research..
Great work, really appreciated..
Thanks a lot for this amazing video.. Definitely gonna implement in my study routine🤓
Lots of love from me and my friends from India..❤
This channel is criminally underrated thank you so much for always posting such quality content, went from average grades to THE top scoring student thank you guys, kuma 💜!
so happy for you!!
@@ziyili6731 Thank you so much I wish the same for you, if you want any advice or tips I got you!
@@hellosouuu Yes, I'd love general advice/ tips!!
@@hellosouuu how to stop procrastinating?
I was going to post the same comment .. yeahh this vid is so underrated!!
This has to be the best "how to trick my brain into studying" video ever! It's so practical! I'm going to turn my friend group into a study group
As an starting youtuber, I can't even begin to understand the amount of effort devoted to create this video, from shooting, editing, animations, charts, game animation, b-rolls, etc. I hope there are like 5 or 6 people working on this, because if it's just one person doing all of it, I have a long long way to go.... Thanks for an amazing video, with great content and flawless delivery.
I am following this exact same method for past 2 years and looking back at your progress/upgrades is (Damnnnnn) real motivator. Thanks for the analogy based explanations.
I entered the College of Nursing this semester and I was struggling to get high grades and I failed several times, which made me think if I was qualified for this specialization. Since I joined the academy, I have been trying to find the best study method for me. This video describes my situation completely, and explains a lot, so I will make sure to follow his advices
this video was really helpful . Thanx for your hard work ❤️
Do you improved?
Thank you so much Matty! It's perfect for me, I'm currently trying to better my learning strategy and your video comes in clutch ✨✨
Love to hear it!
Such a well written video. I was a happy student in my first years of college. I was focused on learning and didn't care about the grades. I did well! Now, in my grad year, I want to get into medical school. The introduction of possible failure makes learning difficult and less fun! And I can't say it improves results.
what a wonderfully made video, I took notes and will try to apply them to a competitive exam I'll be appearing for next year! love your insightfulness, keep it up! :)
Thx for sharing your insight. I've also been thinking about harnessing my passion towards games into things such as studying, honing various skills, learning physical exercises!
I'm really happy to have found this video! It gives me so much hope and understanding of what I can do to make my studying process less suffering :)
I have exams next week, and I couldn't seem to focus on studying. This video is so helpful, thank you so much for making it!
so close to 500K congratulations!! this channel is so underrated and have quality content!
Thank you thank you 🙏🏻
@@CajunKoiAcademy thank YOU for your hardwork!
I have honestly thought of this A LOT over the years.. like how can I dither and fuss over real-life challenges but spend months or years on certain games no problem. Really helps to see someone lay out the points that explain some of the psychology behind it. 👌
The quality of this is INSANE!!
Thank u for the advice!
This man kinda motivated me towards studies now, like my exams are coming soon, and I'm just starting my syllabus, but I do think changing my strategy a bit, I might be able to get at least an A
Hi 👋 there, very helpful and I loved the biweekly mindmaps process, the progress bar of topics and subjects and breaking the big final goal into asking the right questions to yourself on progress. I think it's equally important to praise yourself and derive motivation from completing a hard objective if one has competed a hard objective which deepens the interest.
the way i found working to be a favourable activity is by making that work meaningful. i regret picking the course i am on so i hate studying. but when i am in the gym i love it because i am passionate about reaching prs and getting a better body. same with working on a business; i want to achieve that goal and so when i get up in the morning its the first thing that i want to do. motivation comes from purpose.
❤I like how creative your content is. I have a test next week and have been studying for it since the summer. Thanks for the tips. Not sure if I will ever trick my mind into studying but the "gamefication" might be a good one to try. thanks again for sharing. ❤
Keep up the amazing videos! I resonate with your videos so much! I am in high school and had a particularly rough study night. Just starting now at 11:22 pm because I was REALLY dead before from this week. But I am going to get through this and get SOME stuff done right now.
You got this
@@CajunKoiAcademy XD Thanks :)
When I watch your videos, I get such big brother vibes. You're making everything sound so fun. I'm excited to study today and do it all!
Such an awesome editing with all those gamify scenes really loving it
The editing is so COOL!!!
Really like your advice!!😁
This honestly helped so much it helped me study half of everything we took this semester in 2 weeks
Okay, this video is so useful since I have a math exam in 4 weeks and struggle to study for exams because of my ADHD and Autism, so thank you so much. But the part of the video which I will probably remember the most is the My Hero Acadamia reference at 8:07.
Either way, this this will help me max out my studying ability.
Time to defeat the final boss with the boys.
I can't wait for this mentioned video about tracking/measuring progress. Its one of those things I've always struggled with.
I love how you spit the big problem in 3 small pieces unlockables, like a videogame.
I will start today trying it, great video!
Great video! I really resonated with the fact that games have clearly defined story lines but life can feel like a hot mess sometimes lol
I think this study is interesting one and gets me thinking how powerfull and constant feedback was in games.I would only add that games are easier to do because of high audiovisual stimulation combined with abundant storyline and world building. Anyway great video, thanks for sharing yours wisdom.
Awesome Content! 🎉
I not only want, but need this in my current endeavors:
I’m enrolled in Liberty University for the Bachelor’s of Interdisciplinary Degree for Property Management, WGU for the BSN in Nursing, and UOPeople to build towards the MBA. I always knew that if I could just gamify my studies, then I would find the additional motivation power-ups to steam through it all; like a 12-hour Twitch Stream!
It’s too bad that I miss the proverbial train, but I’m on the waiting list!
Thank you so much for sharing! ❤
Omg thank you soooo muchhhh!!! The past few weeks I was trying doing this to my math lessons, turning my math problems into a game! And it was so helpful but I didn't have any idea about how to do it again but this time with my whole studying thing.(searching about it didn't come to my mind) And now here's your video on my fyp. I'm so thankful. Thank you soooo much this video is definitely a big change in my lifestyle 💙💙💙💙 (English is not my first language sorry if the words doesn't make sense)
Can we all just a take a moment to appreciate the insane production quality of this video on top of it being already so informative...
Here's another one: Do things you enjoy while studying, like listening to music, having snacks, or putting something on in the background, and do this consistently. It should be something that doesn't distract you from the work but is enjoyable.
This strategy builds a positive association with work and makes you more willing to do the work because you know (whether consciously or subconsciously,) that you always have a good time when studying.
Thanks for this, it's a really cool perspective on learning. I will definitely look into applying this.
This is life saving. Your videos always have my back wnvr I get stuck. Thank you.
You sir, are a freaking genius! I literally have no idea what I’m doing rn since I’m trying to learn to draw and make animations, I’m gonna need all the help I can get! :D
You have earned a new subscriber! :D
the animations in this video are incredible!
Very cool insight on how to study! Nice video :)
I love everything about this video! This is extremely helpful!
1. Storyline - end boss - Clearly defined goals - track your stats as much as possible to know your progress by asking or making your own tracking mechanism
2. Remove risk, loss and consequences for failure as much as possible - super mario effect - break down high risk goals into low risk high reward goals - break down into many small goals
3. Install FOMO - keep it collaborative - create study ambiance with others - create an personal reward system (e.g. daily login reward)
the solution is to game-ify life.. this is genius
I love your channel! You're helping me in my study journey soooo much. Keep up the amazing work!
Most convincing techniques and easy to test it out. Guided procedures with more visuals helps me to remember and put in practice. worth my time watching your videos.
Happy to have subscribed in here. ❤️ Much love. Thank you Cajun Koi Academy.
If this video isn't a good way to kickstart your new year. I really like how you explain your concept and as a gamer myself, I just love your editing style and references to the gaming world. I always thought about why I find it easy to push through a higher rank or finish an almost unbeatable boss and your video explains it wonderfully. It's that nice juicy dopamine combined with 0 risk. Thank you so much for this super high-value content. The next thing I'm gonna do is to turn my pile of pages to study into Pac-Man bite size pieces.
One tip I like to give as well, do NOT study in the place where you usually game. Our mind connects places with tasks such as bed = sleeping and that's why when someone uses their phone often in their bed they have higher chances of being insomniacs, because their brain sees bed = phone = awake. So if you often entertain yourself at your desk, go to another on and study there because desk #1 = entertainment.
This is such a creative and excellently edited video. Really fantastic.
please do more of this i think the team work is good
These are such great ideas! In using our knowledge of the addictiveness of activities such as video games and analysing the reasons for this, we can apply those principles to tasks which do seem uninviting at times, yet are truly meaningful.
Probably one of the best sources of information on this topic - collating the key principles using this analogy into one concise video, also!
Awesome, guys - thank you, and keep it up!
Not only the quality of video content was so good, the video editing in format of video game was top-notch. Loved it!
Broooo, the personal reward system is soo helpful. I can just tell myself:"If I dont do my homework I play one or two hours less of cod" or stuff like that. "If I do this now I will order something instead of eating ramen tonight"
You my man are a life saver. Lots of support from me for your channel ❤
That was an amazing video, really helped, thank you ❤️
I’m studying to become a chemistry and biology teacher and I’m struggling a lot with procrastination. Teachers are humans too. Dont judge! Sometimes I help freshmen inside the labs and noticed they are struggling too. The best advice I gave all of them so far is to map their life like a skill tree. Not just the subjects they are learning right now. Biology and Chemistry is a lot. There are majors which are just focusing on one tiny area of it! Comparing those Allrounders in my lab with one-track specialists will make your brain think you are worthless cause you know nothing at all, but in fact you know more but not as detailed. Just make sure you know what you achieved by looking at the skills you earned along the way makes you more motivated to achieve more abstract goals.
This video made me get into game development more than studying 😂💀💀
Seems productive to me
Game development is extremely hard and very physics and math heavy. It's one of the hardest programming fields I think
@@_quixote I’m not a game dev but Ive taken classes where we’ve coded a lot and nearly went insane because we couldn’t find out what’s wrong with it because if one thing isn’t right it could make many other things not right
Amazed by this idea. Thankyou so much....i will definitely try all the tricks
This was the perfect video to watch before my upcoming exam! Thanks!
One thing I for some reason just naturally had was an addiction to do math/U.S History homework at night. It felt so calming and relaxing.
Idk what I'm gonna do with my life
Same 😢
this was so good i look forward to implementing these tools next semester
This is the most useful video i've ever watched. Thank you so much!
I never knew videos related to study can be this amazing ❤️
The thumbnail is awesome and so is the content
🙏
Thanks, your video really fresh. Now, I realize that When we are in the flow of study, we are also actually in the game and focus on it. Thanks for make me realize this. CZcams really know what i need.
Great breakdown!
Whoever is reading this, I pray that whatever you’re growing through gets better and whatever you’re battling with makes your situation better as you’re continuing to be a better person each day. I have faith that you’ll turn out great as your circumstances will change. Have a fantastic day! You got this! 🤗💪🏼❤
1. Do weekly tests of what you've learned throughout the week to make sure you're progressing
2. Everything is easier to do when there little risk involved. So instead of focusing only on your biggest goals, divide them into smaller ones.
Not only to track your progress more efficiently, but also the reduce the risk involved with what you're working on
3. Get feedbacks from experienced people
4. Find a way to exploit FOMO, which is our sense of urgency, with a timer for example or some deadline you must not go over. Everyone is more productive on urgency
5. Work with a group of people simmilar to you
Thank you. This video is really helpful ❤️
so we just need directions! nice, that opened my eyes!
The most important thing is that your achievement was saved in game, while you keep forgetting what you learnt in real life.
Loving your videos
Love from India 🇮🇳
Hello and thank you!
Great stuff man, this made me more motivated for my medical board exam
This is a great video, thanks man!
Question at the end: Which part of the video interested you the most?
Me: How about the whole video?
No, but seriously man! I struggle a lot lately to even watch 3 minutes straight and I watched your entire video, because it was so interesting and so clear! I am definitely gonna rewatch it and take notes to see how I can implement this into my own studying and make my study a game! I really see how this can actually work and how I can indeed actually get addicted to studying!
This is honestly one of the best videos I have seen in quite some time! Well done man!
Hey ! Thank you for that video ! It's so useful !
Just a little question : at 2:38 you talk about a grow table video but I have not been able to find it. Can someone guide me ?

Thanks for the video... I was trying to find a way to do better result and this will help
This video has been very informative. I'm dealing with low attention span making it difficult for me to stay focused on studying. Sometimes, I get really overwhelmed with the amount of material I need to study given the limited time to prep for a test. I hope these learning strategies with enable me to become an effective learner.
I know it will help because you showed up for yourself!
Keep me posted on your progress, rookie!
"How I tricked my brain"
You mean how you tricked yourself? 🤔
This video explores the idea of combining the fun aspects of video games with study routines to improve motivation and learning.
The video presents three key concepts from video games that make them engaging and demonstrates how to apply these as "power-ups" to enhance studying:
1. Well-defined storyline and clear objectives: Video games provide clear goals and progress indicators, unlike traditional studying.
To address this, create opportunities to track your progress, such as implementing self-assessments, practice tests, or mind maps to identify learning gaps.
2. Low risk, high reward: Video games allow players to experiment without severe consequences, which encourages creativity and persistence.
Break down high-risk goals into smaller, low-risk objectives and focus on learning from mistakes. This approach makes studying more manageable and enjoyable.
3. FOMO (Fear of Missing Out): Video games use FOMO to encourage consistent engagement.
Leverage healthy FOMO by creating social accountability through study groups, which fosters a sense of community and competition.
Additionally, implement personal reward systems for achieving study milestones.
By applying these power-ups to your study routine, you can improve motivation, foster a sense of purpose and direction, and ultimately achieve a greater sense of accomplishment in your academic endeavors.
Thank you so much for simplifying the video, it really helped me out, your the best man thanks
This is an excellent video
Very helpful, really entertaining, and easy to understand using the video game analogy
thankyou so much, I like the part about doing some feedback to know that I am making progress, drawing a giant mind map, and being competitive with other, and the editing is another level!!! wow!!!.
