Speed Study Secrets (Not Taught In School) | Jim Kwik

Subscribe so we can stay in touch and learn together. 🧠

Here is my note Don't 1. Multitask-- decrease IQ 2. Distraction-- turn your phone off. Use apps to help reduce distractions 3. Cramming-- study over time not overnight 4. Act against your judgement Do 1. Active recall-- remember what you read instead of rereading repeatedly 2. Spaced repetition-- anki, 3. Use smell-- most connected. Spray unfamiliar smell while studying. Use it before exam. Rosemary, peppermint 4. Listen to songs-- increase mood and memory Sharpen the saw

Summary: 1. Stop multitasking/task switching. Do one single mental thing at a time. 2. Eliminate distraction. Focus. (See episode on focusing better) 3. Stop cramming. You need sleep and breaks. Study in chunks and not at a go. Take breaks every 30-40 mins. 4. Stop acting against your own better judgement. (See the episode on how to stop procrastinating.) 5. Practice active recall. Quiz yourself. 6. Follow spaced repetition. (Flashcards) 7. Use your sense of smell. (Your environment is anchored with your memory.) Lipbalm/chewing gum/perfume - use it while studying and then on the day of exam. Peppermint oil is a good oil for focus. 8. Listen to music of 60beats/min that can cause you to go into alpha state which is a good state for memorizing.

Thank you Jim Kwik for creating this🙏

Thank you, I’m really amazed you responded ever I started following you I have more faith.

New subbie. Finals time and the info is at a pace that I appreciate...without fillers.

@jimkwik thank you for your time and teachings. When I was child, I had learning disability. I couldn't understand anything, everything was "why? Why?." Even when I was being taught "hands on task" I couldn't understand the concepts. I had to repeat 5th grade and work harder than most kids even up towards high school. By the time I hit high school, everything I did was as if I was just trying to get by. Until my junior year I had the privilege to meet two great teachers that were patient enough to actually teach me to study, concentrate, and kind of "turn on my brain". Now I'm here watching and listening to your podcast trying re-learn learning. My goals are to accomplish a better understanding of reading comprehension, writing, studying etc; So I can one day become a correctional officer. When I heard you struggled learning as a child and had to work harder than other kids, I understood that because I've been there. You have inspired and motivated me. It's like if Jim Kwik can do it, then I have work as hard to do it. Again thank you Jim!

Jim, my work requires me to do multi-switching and I have been doing it for 5 years. Also I am on a night shift. I have been forgetting names, some processes at work and other things and it's really embarrassing. Sometimes I call my clients with wrong names *face palm*. I 'm learning a lot from you and I will start to apply what I have learned so far. Thank you and God bless you.

I love your lessons very much. I feel like an ambassador of Kwik brain, your hacks? Experience and your determination motivated and strengthen me. It's like you gave me a super strong psychology. — "Anything times zero equal zero. That's why it's so important to take control of your state. You'll achieve nothing if you're bored (0)." Please do an in dept podcast on this plez. State is king.

Thanks to all the people who summarized the whole video and saved time of many.

Big fan. Telling everyone about you. You have literally changed my life for the better. I am going back to a business I started and stopped because I didn’t think I could do it. Now I can remember all my facts. Did practice remembering phone numbers. I like that.

Actually I wanted to sharpen my brain to learn more and also to increase speed reading and also to learn continuously, so I got this ads of mindvalley whenever I clicked on a video. I watched it and liked it and now I am watching all your videos and I am loving it. I am also making notes so that I can minimise the use of screen. Thank you for adding all these videos. It’s helping me a lot

My favorite tips in the video are: stop multitasking, active recall, and spaced repetition. Thank you for your coaching and tips Coach Jim.

How come your channel haven't reached million just yet? You're the best mind coach there is in space.

Hi Jim, thankyou for all helpful info, love it. I'm in my second year of a Mental Health degree and work full time. Listening to music is my favourite study tip..gets me motivated to start studying each night and to stay focussed. Also during my work day I schedule my time into slots..for each job/task I need to do (Not multitasking). Memory is what I have problems with..am exhausted as newly appointed manager of a team and lecturer. Will keep watching your vids and thankyou for sharing your story, amazing 😇🧡
