hello friends!! 💌 i hope this mindset helps you study smarter, not harder. It's so so important to take meaningful breaks and fill up your cup so that you can keep pouring it into academic projects. I hope life is treating you well atm. You've got this!! 👏
(also you definitely don't need to study 10 hours a day to succeed and I don't do this every day! the idea is that the mindset of your "Attention Budget" promotes such sustainable productivity that you could easily study for that long
Have you seen Dustin Luke videos and how he ended up speaking like an Argie after meeting some local boys during a trip to Spain? He got mad about it and became one of them/us!
Jade, I found you this last friday at rosedal de palermo. I realize you want me to speak spanish... recién me doy cuenta que preferías hablar en español jaja. ¿te puedo ofrecer pasear por la ciudad en moto? Me gustaria que aceptes una invitación a ver buenos aires desde una moto , puedes? me gustaria mucho si me aceptas recorrer la ciudad unas horas :D
Dioooos como me puede !!!!!esta mujer la Amooo .ese vestido me lleva al cielo .combina con tus hermosos hojitos ☺😘💐💘
I live in buenos aires , if you want I can teach you castellano ,Im from here but I learned english us ,va like a very good friend ,I saw many videos of you it seen that you knows part of buenos aires only you have missed the beach but I dont like it ,is a small city ,I live in the county of merlo a good friend Braian
Hello! I’m the last year student. Your videos are so cool❤ I was working from early morning, so I will spend a lot of time at work. "Attention budget" is a good idea to start spend my time in productive way.
For me and everyone who needs it: "No matter what's going on in your life, you're enough. You've got this." ✨
Great attitude!
This is much deeper than it reads at first glance.. absolutely right on!
Perhaps +: "Just do it!"

Thank you!! ❤❤❤
Ive been feeling so stupid doing ALs to a point I wanna give up everything.But okay Ive got no other choice so imma try morrrreee
Summary:
Plan your day in advance.
Set out a time for deep focus (where you avoid social media)
Try interleaving (reaching out for that concept, recalling it after a different task, will hammer it into your brain)
Meditation and exercise refill your attention budget
Plan low-focus activities for later in the day
Sanctity of space
Meaningful breaks (that re-energise you)
*Always* remember that you are enough. (thanks for this Jade
Great summary!
@A Passing Ship just wait until you're in University. Free time, quite literally, is not a thing anymore. It's important to take short breaks, especially breaks that will completely re-energize you instead of making you dull and lazy such as scrolling through social media
One question in ur study myths video u said don't study to longer n know u r showing 10+ hours study routine
Hi, final year university student here. You do not need to be studying 10+ hours per day. Especially if you work or have other responsibilities. Expecting this is setting yourself up for failure. Be kind and gentle with yourself.
Same for me. When I try to study 10+ a day, theres me in the next day feeling miserable and not wanting to get off the bed. But some greedy part of my mind keeps wanting me to do that over and over maybe bc our teachers advice us less than 10 is not enough
Thank you. This is so so toxic
She's not saying you should. She's saying you should be aware of what you have the energy for and what you're spending your energy on. She's been able to study for that long. Doesn't mean we all can. The advice is still good - if you know what you're wasting your energy on, you can divert your available energy to more productive tasks.
Thank you so much. I was looking at the comments looking for this
She said “we are all different”
Wow, this is literally what I needed right now. I love studying, but I find myself losing focus so easily sometimes. Like, one day I'm studying 8 hours without any problem, but some other day I can bearly sit through 2 hours of study
This is totally normal. Studying 8 or more hours consistently is enough to burn anyone out. You deserve a break :)
@@emilydiggle3653 Except the person who made the video apparently
It’s such an effort to take time for our bodies and brain. But it’s so very important for productivity
@Manuel it can be, if you keep doing that without breaks. I’ve seen many of my university friends burn out to the point of mental breakdown by studying 8-12 hours a day.
@Manuel I'd say it sounds like you're doing really well. Even 6 hours for an 'off day' is very impressive and I'm sure you're making steady progress. And even if on the surface your friends are working consistently 8-12hrs, there's no point comparing yourself to them as I think many people struggle behind the scenes and we rarely get the full picture of someone's life and work habits. I suppose there will always be that person who does actually manage to breeze through, but that's very rare I think.
At 6:30 I had to stop for a moment and think about it. My studies shouldn't be about meeting the expectations of getting a good grade or getting a diploma, it should be about the joy of learning new things. I tend to forget that, thank you for the reminder !!

Purpose!
I loved how you mentioned neurodivergence and how that can affect people's ability to focus. I am autistic and possibly have ADHD so I know that my brain works in a different way from neurotypical people, and that's ok, I just have to learn how to work for my own brain. I really loved this idea of attention budget and I think I will input it more in to my own life.
1. Plan your study days in advance
2. start your day with mindfullness (yoga, meditation)
3. plan with deep focus in mind (admin tasks later in the day)
4. optimize workplace (alone in morning during deep focus, study together in afternonon during low effort tasks)
5. no social media during deep focus (usually morning)
6. do not feel guilty or stressed during studying, it should not be a meassure for your self-worth -> focus on joy and gratitude for study process
7. study environment; just for studying
8. take breaks during studying -> keep doing things that make you happy and energized (you can take breaks while studying one subject it is a phenomenon that helps)
9. realise that everyone is different, and everyone has their own unique way of studying :)
Thank you sooo much, Jade! I needed that :) I'm a uni student (in the UK) studying the first year of my degree. I'm finding it really difficult to concentrate and I waste my energy so often. I really want to change this! Your practical advice is so clear and helpful. Thank you for taking the time to film this video :) Love Kate xx
Thank you, Jade for sharing your amazing thoughts❤
sometimes we get lost worring about all the tasks, keep working and be tough in ourselves ending up by procrastinating at the mid of the day with a feeling of guilt.. but the mindset you shared reminded me that I should slow down and focus where my attention goes not just on my working days but everyday and that breaks aren't only important for my mental health but for completing my tasks with high energy.. I hope to have this mindset in my current finals and throughout my whole life.
I'm really grateful for finding your channel on CZcams, Thank you again 🌸
At this point in the semester, I feel that I needed to watch this video. Thank you so much Jade, you are always an inspiration for me🧡
I was just feeling very low because Christmas is coming and money is very tight right now. But your videos really cheer me up Jade. Thank you from the bottom of my heart:)
I think Christmas is wonderful cuz all the streets are decorated and lit up with beautiful lights and you can just walk and enjoy them for free :) I love Christmas lights everywhere
thank you so much for this video, i started university this month and it's a little bit challanging to organise my study sessions. I have so much to do but hearing you say we should focus more on enjoying the process rather than feeling guilty because of how much we could've done was a game-changer for me ♡
When I'm depressed without knowing what to do, I listen to you and it makes me want to do something, to go for a walk, for a walk... you lift my spirits.
Hi Jade, I'm a year 11 student and I think this video really helped me
Because all of us are different and the "productivity" side of CZcams was making me feel like if I didn't do 10 hours a day and got all 9s first try then I was worthless. And that I always need to find a way to improve myself and be ashamed of being average regardless of what I'm satisfied with.
I need to start focusing on myself as a person and not only as a student trying to get the highest grade possible.
I just really wanted to say thank you, Jade
One question in ur study myths video u said don't study to longer n know u r showing 10+ hours study routine
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I needed to hear that I should take breaks. Last week I felt guilty for not working as hard as I could two days, so I took very little breaks the next day. I got a lot done, but looking back, I did not understand a lot of it. Now I need to go back over it and I just wasted my time. I need to make sure I'm structuring my day with intentional breaks. Thank you so much. I just love watching these videos. You seem to care so much about everyone watching 💕
Thank you for this and the positivity here. 🙂 Managing my attention and staying focused something I really struggle with especially when I have a lot to do.
I'm an argentinian who has discovered your channel recently, and let me just say that i love you energy and message! I'm not a student anymore but this tips are really great for my work as a freelancer. Thank you for sharing your spark with the world! :)
Thank you Jade! It’s been a long time since I watched your videos, but now CZcams recommends your video again and I feel so much grateful to watch this video. You helped me realize the relationship between me and my productivity again ❤ Thank you so much 😊
The analogy used with the "pouring from an empty cup" throughout the video is genius Jade!!
Thank you for such high quality meaningful material 💜
it was so special to hear about neurodivergence included in this. i struggle with ADD, and find it so hard to get motivated and stay sustained on a certain activity if I'm not enjoying it :)
Your last few words made me cry, Jade. How’re you this kind and gentle? I aspire to be as caring to self and everyone around like you some day.
You've always helped me a lot and still do. Thank you, Jade. ♡
You’re such an eloquent speaker. Loved the points you put forward and they gave me a lot to think about. It’s about time I start figuring out my personal promoters and poisons as well. Thank you Jade❤
Sos una genia! 💖I just want to point out that a lot of the advice you've given is what my psychologist has taught me to do.
I have ADHD and was only diagnosed a year ago. I used tostrugle at uni, my grades were way too low, now after a whole year of cognitive therapy for ADHD, not only my academic life has improved, but my life is much easier as well. 🙌
💖 You are making value content and that something to appreciate
Thanks for this vid. In the middle of it atm and it’s so validating. I’ve got ADHD and thanks for addressing that at the start!
This is the first video that I've watched and I'm subscribing :) love your message and positivity and how understanding you are of lots of different people. I certainly need to work smarter not harder as I'm at my limit at the moment. This has inspired me to think about how I'm spending my energy throughout the day!
Love what you say about being different since it's true, sometimes we want to follow these "productive" routines or habits which could actually turn out to be counterproductive for some of us 😃
Yeah most motivation videos are toxic. “Work hard, never take breaks, push past your breaking point.”
Your videos always come up on my recommendations at the right time! This video reminded me to refocus and remember the goal💛Ive been wasting my energy often so this is definitely what i need.
Thank you Jade! You’re my inspiration! You’re the only part of social media I look forward to
There couldn't be a better timing! I am having my unit tests and this looks like what l need. Advice from the expert herself💫
AP classes?
i love jade so much, at this point her videos are my therapy🤍
I have been feeling so bad that it takes me around half an hour to an hour to become really focused, it felt nice to hear that half an hour is actually a good time
I'm currently preparing for my ACCA exam and bumped into your video as I've been struggling with deep focus too. Thanks a lot for the info shared! It's really helpful in my final days revision schedule.
Jade! I just started reading your book and I LOVE IT so far!! You’re a great writer
Jade, you have no idea how much you have helped me

I really needed this video. I was so exausted cause of uni work. But I feel better now thanks to my lovely Jade 😘
I need to start doing this in a more healthy way. Currently have an exam tomorrow and I've studied for so long that my eyes are legit burning something fierce. Thanks for the tips!

I've heard something similar called cognitive load/spoon theory and I never thought that energy could be refilled by taking breaks!! That's game changing!! And btw I really love that dress on you!!
I needed this video, thank you dear jade🌸✨
Jade u radiate such positive vibes ❤
this mindset is absolutely wonderful and so motivating!!
Hi Jade! your study hacks are awessome!🤩🤩

I really needed this rk, i have class soon so i will plan my day around that, also that ending got me all teary aha, love you Jade :)
I am sooo freaking grateful for you !!! love xx
woah Jade! the metaphor at the beginning was so well-thought 👏🏼
Thank u so much !! I was feeling like boring and I didn't know what should I do in my daily life etc.. but after watching your video i feel good now
Hi Jade! I'm currently struggling with the thing u mentioned in the video: attaching your worth to the amount of work u get done and success u achieve. Can u make a video or comment on how u detached yourself from that? It would help tremendously. Sending all the love
aww thank u so much, Jade! need this sm rn.
"and it's not just for a piece of paper..." this is the mindset i have been striving towards over the years, and i realize that studying can also be fun! unpopular opinion, but the process matters more than the results🤩
This is the first vdo I saw of yours ...but it instantly felt in love with your thoughts,it feels so relatable 😭♥️
I subscribed right away!!
Honestly... You are amazing 🥰! I am beyond grateful, that I came across this channel 🙏🖤!
Thank you for this video Jade! It was absolutely lovely! (I've read about interleaving before, and I thought you might be interested to read that book too- the author is Prof. Barbara Oakley ( one of the instructors on the course learning how to learn on Coursera), and I think the book is called "A Mind for numbers").
when I deleted tiktok I stopped getting bored with studying , 10/10 would recommend
the music at the end always give me that boost of serotonin. love ittttt 😍😍😭👌
love your videos and your mindset so much!!😍😍
The illustration of this video it just perfection 🤩
I really needed that... thank you Jade :)
You are so amazing 🙏🏻 thank you for your inspirational helpful informative videos 🥰 Love and appreciate them so much 🌻
This is amazing! Thank you! Great Tips!
I just want to say thank you so much for this video. I really needed it
Why all the time i feel better about myself at the end of your videos🥰
9:05 I’m watching this video in the evening almost the end of my day, what im gonna do is preparing for tomorrow’s classes, through reading and trying to understand the concepts of what we’re gonna learn tomorrow.
this method helps me to stay more focused during the class.
I love this concept, I think I'll start to use it
this is actually really good advice! thank you :)
I really like your energy. You look wholesome. Kinda person that I would like to get to know. Have a great day.☀️
This was so refreshing and the phrase "do not judge yourself for how much you have or have not studied, you are here for more than a piece of paper" literally changed my life entirely
Thank you so much jade for this video!
Wow, that's a whole new level of the content!!
Jesus Jade your mug!!!! Just started the video and had to mention that it's so cute!!!
Thanks for sharing this, Jade! 🤗
You earned a new subscriber👏❤
Awesome content!!
I just love all your videos and your concepts so much! Also just you
You are so inspiring. Thank you for this video!
Oh my God, Jade, you inspire me so much!!!! Whenever I feel unmotivated I come to your channel and watch (or rewatch) some videos about unilife and I feel way much better. I've been struggling a lot in the past months. I moved abroad to study Communication and Media Science and the first semester is very theoretical however I love practical work! So watching your videos is a way to make me feel a little bit more comfortable with my unilife status right now, trying to get motivated to go through it. Thank you so much for sharing everything you've learned and being such a lovely person to your audience. Lots of love from me
You're a good motivational speaker for me💗✨
Loads of love from india💘😚
Thanks so much for this Jade!
I really appreciate Jade for all the tips and insights she gives us. She is such a wonderful human being. May more strength be added unto you. And know I understand why you posted that video of you pouring water into cups 😅❤️
