1
Forget everything that you think you know about productivity.
2
Literally throw it out the door because it's not going to help you here.
3
And in fact, I'm going to change your entire mindset around this.
4
We're talking about a time management secret that's completely backwards.
5
The more you slow down, the more time you actually have.
6
Now, I know that sounds completely insane, but just hang in there and I'll get into it.
7
Before we do that, though, I do want to preface that this is not going to be anything motivational.
8
So if you are looking for toxic motivation, this is not the video for you this one will be.
9
You're not going to get a hustle harder mantra from this
10
because I'm talking about real life scenarios that I went through
11
and how I'm able to manage my time but also manage my workload.
12
The first crucial shift that you need to have is that you need to slow down to actually speed up.
13
Stop trying to squeeze every second out of the clock unintentionally and the keyword there is unintentionally.
14
So let's cut the nonsense and dive deep into this so that it will make more sense to you.
15
Firstly, you want to set a clear goal.
16
I know this sounds so easy to say
17
and a lot of people say the same thing but what does this actually mean?
18
If you don't have a real set goal then you're not
19
going to know what destination you're going to go towards and therefore you're not going to know the journey.
20
For example, if you know you want fried chicken, that's one goal aka you want the good grades, but you don't know where you're going to get the fried chicken,
21
then you're just gonna walk around aimlessly and hoping
22
that the fried chicken shop will be there
23
but it's never gonna be there
24
because it's in the next town over that's the exact same
25
with your studies right now you know you want to get good grades
26
but because you don't have the goal set to get there you're just wandering around aimlessly pretending you're studying
27
but in reality you're wasting your time
28
so you want to ditch the useless goals like saying i'm gonna work on my project today that's gonna be pointless.
29
You want to be specific and be as realistic as possible as well.
30
Don't say, I'm going to learn an entire syllabus in just two seconds.
31
Obviously, that's not going to work.
32
And instead, it's going to set you back because you're going to feel so anxious about not being able to do it.
33
What you want to do instead is to say something along the lines of writing 100 words
34
or writing 500 words for my essay before noon or finalizing the presentation outline by 3 p.m.
35
In this way, you give yourself some dopamine hit because you feel like you've done something, so you feel like you're winning And secondly,
36
it also breaks the goals down in order to have a very specific tangible thing about it
37
So that you can actually track the progress of your goal itself Once you have that, it makes it a lot easier for you to break it down into smaller actions For example,
38
with the essay before, you can write down the outline first Afterwards, you can then write down the draft And once that's done,
39
you can then revise it So there's an actionable step each part of the way
40
so that you actually know where you're going and what road or path you're taking to get to your goal.
41
And this focus action was the one that changed everything for me.
42
When I didn't figure this out yet, I was literally all over the place and it meant
43
that I was juggling a lot of plates but they were all falling apart.
44
But by doing this, I started to see a lot more of what is going on in my day-to-day life
45
and therefore I can fit my studying around my entire life.
46
For example, if I have a social or an event
47
that evening with the society and we have a meeting in the morning about it
48
and then I have to come in early in order to set up the event, speaking to teachers, blah, blah, blah.
49
But also I have a tutoring session at 2pm
50
and also I still have to make content for my TikTok
51
and then I also have an exam tomorrow then how I'm gonna plan
52
that is to literally schedule my study sessions in between every
53
single one of them it takes me half an hour to go from home to uni I'll study in
54
that half an hour I'll study again in the half hour back I study during lunch break
55
while I'm eating my food I'll study during lessons when I know the topic already.
56
Sometimes the content is pretty obvious
57
and therefore I don't need to kind of sit there
58
and listen through it which means I can study for other subjects during my lecture time
59
and therefore I save a lot of time already.
60
But all of this is done by saying I'm gonna finish one pass paper by 2 p.m.
61
I know that at 2 p.m.
62
I have my tutoring session so between that time whatever free time I have I'll be working on my pass paper.
63
This honestly makes it a lot less overwhelming for me so give it a go.
64
Now I'm gonna give you a hard truth.
65
Rushing is what's screwing you over.
66
You think faster equals getting more work done but it's not the case.
67
You don't end up having six packs just from doing 100 squats within five seconds.
68
Just because you're fast doesn't mean you actually get the muscles quickly and that's the exact same with studying.
69
Again same thing what you get instead is just stress mistakes
70
and you end up feeling so miserable
71
because you're like oh my god I didn't complete it I
72
didn't complete it I shouldn't have done this I shouldn't have done
73
that I should have done this instead I should have done
74
that instead and you just end up spiraling out of control
75
and instead you worry about it and you lose the time
76
that you could have used to study because you end up worrying
77
so much when you deliberately slow down you work smarter you then become intentional with your time
78
and you make fewer errors and think more clearly in that case you get in control.
79
And I want to say this is a trick but it really isn't.
80
It's just that most people don't do it.
81
Start earlier than you need to.
82
Have what's called as a contingency plan and this is a plan for
83
when something happens out of your control that you still have enough time to complete whatever studying you have to do, whatever essay you need to do, whatever it is.
84
For example if it's the Christmas holidays, I don't actually know what my plans are going to be for Christmas most of the times
85
but I do know that when I go back into university in January I will have an exam.
86
So that means I will start planning to study from like end of November at least
87
or like early November
88
and depending on the subject how many months how many content I have to cover
89
but I try to start as early as possible and then give myself two weeks before the actual exam as contingency.
90
This means that
91
if in the holiday season something does come up where I
92
will be going out with my friends going out with family
93
going on holiday whatever it is I already have two weeks
94
planned at the end of it for me to have
95
that in case time so I still have that time to study
96
if that makes sense it also means that I actually push the deadline forwards
97
and I intentionally try to finish all of my studying two weeks early
98
if I do complete that two weeks early then good I have two extra weeks to relax but
99
if not I still have the two extra weeks to complete
100
my work you see what I'm getting at here like no matter what you're still gonna win
101
because you've set yourself up for winning so when
102
that happens you have less frantic mindset you're not as scared
103
and therefore you actually finish more work
104
because you're not thinking about it 24 7 next one i talked about quite a bit as well
105
and i talked about it in this schedule video
106
so have a look at that one
107
but it's to not ignore the compound effect of doing small
108
study sessions every single day instead of doing 15 hours a
109
day you want to instead do just small 30-minute sessions every single day.
110
This does two things.
111
Having the 30-minute sessions more regularly than the one-off cramming sessions means
112
that you are applying your spatial repetition and also your active recall, which will allow you to stick the memory of the subject in your mind for a lot longer.
113
So this means if you have your mocks this time, but then your exams next time and it's going to cover the same topic, you're still going to remember it then.
114
You just need to briefly refresh it, but you will still remember the majority of the content
115
because you've done the correct techniques to make it stick in your brain.
116
So when that happens, you actually have the compound effect of all of the things that you're learning accumulating with one another.
117
And this creates a momentum like a snowball literally rolling down a hill.
118
Real growth comes from working smarter consistently and letting the process handle the rest.
119
Now, sidetracking a little bit, this is a bit relevant to it, have you ever heard of task paralysis?
120
Now this is very common with those of you who have ADHD.
121
My boyfriend has this.
122
My boyfriend was recently diagnosed with ADHD
123
and therefore I got this idea of talking about this because it seems quite relevant to time management.
124
If you have ADHD or you're neurodivergent, it's a bit more difficult for you to manage tasks as compared to other people.
125
So what I do or what my boyfriend does specifically is to do simple tricks in order to break it.
126
Firstly, we do study crawls together or we move to open spaces where we work in cafes, where we study in cafes.
127
And this is purely because your body needs a reset from your normal day-to-day lives.
128
Once you start doing something, like for example, if you start studying in a study room or if you start studying in bed, your brain just kind of gets used to it.
129
And when your brain gets used to it, it gets bored.
130
So what you need to do is to consistently switch between places
131
and this is what me and my friends did during my A-levels as well.
132
We would switch between four cafes every single day in order for us to not get bored of one
133
and make sure that our brains are still there in a way.
134
Secondly, body doubling.
135
By having somebody there studying with you, it feels a lot easier for you to study.
136
So when I was studying by myself, if I didn't have anyone to study with me, I would watch a study with me on YouTube in order to feel that as if someone's studying with me.
137
They don't even have to be working at the same thing as you.
138
Just having their presence there will help you to actually work better.
139
I think it's all about the accountability at that point
140
because you're constantly thinking like oh my god I don't want to stop studying
141
because then they're going to judge me etc etc. Like I definitely feel
142
that all the time whenever I'm like studying in a cafe.
143
And thirdly you want to use the reward system.
144
Now it really depends on the type of person that you are.
145
For my boyfriend for example he loves tech so if he wants a new technology, he would have to complete a certain amount of work for
146
himself in order for him to be able to get that basically.
147
So he sets himself like a big reward.
148
But obviously, that's not always feasible.
149
So it's better to set yourself some small wins and therefore some small rewards as well, maybe a treat here and there.
150
But again, if you have ADHD and your neurodivergent, a lot of the times it might be that you just get bored of that small rewards.
151
So you have to mix and match it as you go along and see what works for you.
152
I can't say the same for everyone because ADHD
153
and neurodivergence is very much so dependent on each person and it's very much so on a scale.
154
But positive reinforcement will motivate your brain to keep going.
155
The next thing you need to do to tackle your time management issues is going to be to eliminate distractions.
156
Now this seems so obvious like
157
if you are distracted by your phone then put your phone in another room
158
or what I do is I film myself studying
159
and then i put it onto tiktok or i go on tiktok live stream
160
but obviously you don't have to do
161
that literally just having your phone up on the camera as
162
if you are filming yourself is good enough and the reason for
163
that is because every time i reach for my phone
164
and i want to use it i see myself doing it
165
and because i see myself doing it i get like shocked
166
and i stop doing it so the practical trick is to not fight them
167
but instead to manage them you can even have like a focus session set on your phone
168
which blocks off the other apps that you're not allowed to use
169
so for me i have work which will turn off all notifications
170
that are from social media and also
171
when i do go on social media it automatically puts it on a timer for me
172
so that i'm not on social media for like five hours for example doom scrolling
173
and if you don't want to use
174
that you can also negotiate with yourself on this
175
so tell yourself okay i'm gonna watch tiktok for five minutes
176
but then after that i have to do a 20 minute study session something like
177
that now one last trick that i want to tell you is to delegate wherever possible
178
but i study alone how do i delegate it to someone
179
delegating here means lightening your mental load by using tools
180
and systems firstly delegating to an app instead of trying to
181
force your brain to have every single information out there why not use a task manager like Notion,
182
Todoist, Motion, whatever it is that you want to use, have the app remembering it for you and organizing it for you so your brain doesn't have to think about it.
183
Secondly, delegate to automation.
184
So for me, it would be like what I said with my phone before.
185
When I set it to work, every time I go on a social media app, it sets a timer and therefore that's one form of automation.
186
You can also delegate to software.
187
So using voice to text for drafting or Grammarly for editing, these tools will handle the repetitive mechanics so you can focus only on the content itself.
188
In this way you are still in control but you have the help
189
that you need in order to take off a lot of the pressure from yourself.
190
One last thing your productivity will be slow at first trust
191
me on this I don't want you to then come off of this video try it for one day
192
and then completely give up because it's not going to be fixed within a day.
193
It's going to take some time but you will get there.
194
The best systems are the ones that works perfectly for you and you customize it for yourself.
195
Yes, all the things that I've done here are based on my experience and therefore have worked for me, but not every single thing I say here right now may have worked for you as well.
196
Try it out and see if they work.
197
If they don't, revise and adjust accordingly.
198
So maybe instead of you using like live streams on TikTok, you can instead use, I don't know, throwing your phone into the bin or something like
199
that to make it more productive for yourself and not be distracted by it.
200
So always try and adjust things here and there to see if it works for you.
201
So here's the key takeaways that we've said so far.
202
Firstly, you want to slow down to speed up.
203
Start early, break big goals down, be consistent with the small efforts, break paralysis with movement and dopamine, manage distractions, delegate the boring stuff to your tools,
204
and you want to drop the toxic hustle culture.
205
Time management is about using your attention wisely, not overdoing it because then you will have no attention span whatsoever.
206
You have the time that you need in order to complete your tasks so don't worry, slow down, you will get there.
207
So if you like that video, don't forget to share it with your friends and if you are done with the rush of life, then make sure to give me a like as well and subscribe to my channel if you haven't yet.
208
Tell me below what small thing you're gonna slow down and do in order to get more done.
209
See you, bye!
210
See you in the next video.
211
Bye!

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
