Hey Doc can I take Chlorophyll and Magnesium supplements together? I’m here from your Magnesium video

It’s interesting, as I don’t think this works for everyone. In a new environment I’m more distracted as there is new stimulus. My entire student life I tried to work in a library and different spaces, but I daydream and look at the architecture, the design, the smells, the other people - all which take my brain down different tangents of distraction. All my submitted work has always been done from my room- either my desk or my bed. I wish I knew that about myself before I struggled through my degree wasting hours in the library only to come home and be most productive at home. It’s incredible that you’ve found what works for you, but I think everyone has to experiment to find what works for them, like people have done with the Pomodoro method. I hope this helps people who haven’t necessarily had luck focusing in the library. Keep trying different things, different setups and different places. You’ll find what works for you. Happy studying 🤍

@@Sereens Maybe you've read Atomic Habits. Behavior change is more alike to happen in a new environment once the cues that distractes us change, if you can study well in your bedroom/house it doesn't make sense to force in a library. The thing that you said happens with me, if there's anyone in the room i can't focus. There're those places in libraries where you have a chair and a desk directed to a wall for that reason

Bruh same, the library instantly became my favourite place to study

This method is not simple for someone with children, which is more than half of the world. You need to adjust to the environment. For many of us, trying to find the perfect setting is a big task itself, so it's more practical to rearrange and adjust to the current environment.

you're a saviour

thank you

Thanks

That means a lot, glad we can help. Will def consider the timer haha

Great

@@KoiAcademy I think I don't belong to any of the 3 clubs (Kitsune, Tora, Kuma). I'm stuck not knowing which one to follow I might have adhd, I get distracted easily, work on a slower pace and I like studying in morning (my most productive hours). So which club should I follow?

@@SCARLETTE. it's the same for me. My family sometimes call me turtle because i do everything "slow". I plan that something is going to take me a few minute because when i see other people is like that(or at least that's what I think), but when i do those things it can take me hours. I get distracted all the time and when i try to do something my mind is the one that starts distracting me, i start daydreaming. I recently realized these things since i just enter to college after these years of pandemic. I feel bad because i can't or don't feel like studying, and my mom gets angry about that because she's working really hard so i can be able to "have a degree and live a peaceful life". I think it may sounds stupid if i try to tell her about my problems, like "mom, I'm sitting in front of the expensive computer, while eating things you bought also, with your effort you paid for and can't put myself to study". She's talking all the time about how she used to work at my age, and that other students work while they are studying and still get good grades, but also don't want me to start working. I have been watching a lot of video about adhd and adhd in women, there are a lot of things that doesn't happen to me and make think it might not be that. I know were my things are all the time, it's deficult to lose something because i know the only possible places that i should have left them(mainly my desk, i put everything on it). Sometimes i feel like time pass too fast, sometimes too slow. I don't know, should i talk yo my mom about going with a psychologist? Sorry for writing too much. I wouldn't read it myself tbh. Thanks if you give yourself the time to read it 😊💕

@@yaelg1474 hey buddy! having ADHD does not mean that you are lazy or have deficiency of focus, it's just that ADHD patients can't regulate their focus properly. It's sometimes to less or too much (hyperfocus). It's a hereditary disorder so you are not at fault. Speak up about this issue to some adult you trust. And if you can't, then there are many videos on KZfaq on how to treat ADHD without medication. It might be helpful to you...It'll help you get out of the rut so i'll suggest just give it a try!! But still, diagnosis is very important. One should be certain whether they have ADHD or not. So it'll be better if you consult a doctor. I can totally relate coz I have same issues. I can't tell my parents about it coz they don't give much importance to mental health...so I am trying to fix everything on my own..

Thanks for sharing! Great perspective

INFJ!

@@SCARLETTE. cool!! my best friend is an INFJ too...im an ENTP myself :P

idk the answer to your question but I wish you all the best for your learning journey 💪 (I'm also new, so dw you're not alone) 🤝

hope it finally works. whats your club?

@@KoiAcademy Team KUMA!!!

This is also a technique that can be valid, it's called flowmodoro, you study until you are in the state of flow and you take a break equal to the time spent studying divided by 5

Look, in study/work it's also important to follow the flow and listen to your body, if you feel you need a longer break that's fine, if instead you feel you can continue, do it

@@KoiAcademy Try Barbara Oakley - "Learn Like A Pro"

Thanks for the insight man

Yes, definitely check your diet and sleep. Two most important factors for energy. But if you think there is a health concern please see your doctor, we cannot diagnose you on the internet lol

@@KoiAcademy ok thanks

Science says don’t multitask and even low level activities like listening to music or pedaling a bike can be distracting. But self experimentation is more practical than studies so if you have the motivation then give it a shot. And congrats on the achievements :)

Empty stomach, sit relax and palms up, try it, it makes different.

Timers for each study type would be great!
