We have been working hard to figure out solutions to distractions from our mind. These distraction demons prey on us when we're bored or frustrated or lazy. But as students we still need to study, even when we don't want to. But using psychological tricks, we can reprogram our brains to block out distractions and enter focus mode when we need to get some work done. Activate focus mode!
🙏 Thanks for watching!

One thing I found that works well is to break the task down into something that can be accomplished in 10 minutes. You've probably heard this before. But I do it with a little twist. Basically, you pick on a task that you believe you can 80% complete in the 10 minutes (or however long). 10 minutes, suddenly not so overwhelming; anyone can do that. But when the 10 minutes runs out, you won't be fully done. You'll be a little annoyed that you are so close to finishing the task, so you'll continue working (hopefully). And that can get the ball rolling. I believe this can be tied to the Zeigarnik effect described here - you have a more vivid memory of the unfinished task. It will play a little bit on your mind, giving you the urge to keep going.

thanks for sharing this! what you're talking about is kinda like a combination of the 2 minute rule and the 5 minute rule: break down your big projects into 2 minute tasks to make them more specific and clear to get started, and do them for at least 5 minutes nonnegotiably. after 5 minutes you can decide if you want to keep going or not. most of the time I keep going since I'm already there

Your content has helped me so much. I went back to school at midlife…and everything about my life is completely different than the last time I was in graduate school decades ago. Despite this, your study tips are relatable and doable. I have so many interruptions and responsibilities to factor into my study schedule…it’s so helpful to hear that flow states can be achieved whatever length of time I can devote to focused study. Sometimes it’s 30 mins. It’s been incredibly frustrating and disempowering listening to pop scientists and influencers with steady pay checks and zero interruptions outside of their control dictate optimal flow times (or deep learning) based on research with enormous gender and sociocultural data gaps. Thank you for not being that. 🙏

Familiarity. Not to easy, not too hard. If its too hard, do other things that you understand that is connected to it. Objective. The task must be singular, specific, achievable. Capture. Journal your distracting thoughts. Urgency. Make yourself do things using reason. Surroundings. Put useless things out of your table. Have a ritual that prepares you to focus. (this is only for myself, if you dont understand what im saying, sorry)

I recieved a 5 page long assignment on restorative justice and how it compares to a book we read in class, yet I only have one evening to complete it, as well as need to wake up early for traveling. Now, my brain type is Tora, but I tend to easily lose passion/interest in things that I know will not teach me anything of importance or are within my interests, reducing the rate at which I write. Is anyone aware of a way to complete such a task?
