3:02 you are never as bad as you think you are and you Are you never as good as you think you are? This means that bhaiya you are not as bad as you think and if you do that then we should never think that you are the best, we should remain humble. There are such people in our group as well. [Music] What has changed in your life that you are unable to study, you are unable to achieve, earlier you used to study for 10-10 hours in school and college, now it has become difficult to focus even for 4 hours, bhaiya, what should I do in my life? The biggest question is this, what should I do in my life to become like my old self. So the first thing that has happened to you is that you had a routine which you used to follow in school and college,
3:49 now that routine is gone. Now you do n't have that routine. Why because the pressure that you had is over? What happens in a job, when you go to a job, who feels like going to work at 8:00 in the morning and coming back at 8:00 in the evening, no one feels like doing it, you will do it for two days, on the third day you will run away, what kind of a job is it? I am doing it, okay, a simple thing, pressure, we will reverse it, it will happen, it is very simple, how to reverse it, what is the main question, Guruji, we will reverse it, we will reverse it, yes, we will reverse it, but how to reverse it, see, the most important thing on which I am going to discuss is a new routine, we have to reverse things, so how will you make a new routine, now let me tell you that if we think that okay today we have to reverse, first of all brother, first of all you do one thing, you make a plan, there is pen, paper, diary, my diary, I
4:35 write everything here, there is pen, paper, on this you are making a routine, I will get up at 5:00 am, I will go to pee at 6:00 am, I will take bath at 7:1 am, I will have breakfast at 8:30 am, this is not a routine, you will never be able to follow up this routine, it will never work in your life, because, if I tell you the average, then any person has everything, why are you writing this, at what time to take bath, at what time to eat, at what time, first of all you see how many hours do you have for studying, suppose you have 6 hours After removing everything like job, college, work, you have 6 hours left with you. What time is left? I get free at 5:00 in the evening brother, from 5:00 I am completely free to study. You keep it from 6:00, not five, you are saying 5:00. You feel that you are feeling very strict and motivated right now, that is why you are saying that I will sit from 5:00.
5:20 You keep it for 6:00, set the alarm for 5:45. Ok, before setting the alarm, let me tell you one thing, first make a plan for seven days. If you are planning for 7 days, do it subject wise. History, Geography, whatever you want to study, if you are a student of Robotics, do Robotics, if someone wants to study Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science, whatever, first of all make a routine for seven days, make it for seven days. Now you will already make a routine for seven days that I will study for five hours, six hours, 8 hours, 10 hours on the first day. Hey, you don't have the capability, I am talking about the first day, I will tell you one thing first. I will take you to the gym every day. You were the world champion 5 years ago. After 5 years, if you come to study or go to the gym, I am telling you that instead of bench pressing 100 kg, you will not be able to lift even 20 kg. So, we are talking about the first day. Forget what you were in the past. What you are today. Talk about this. On the
6:08 first day when you go to study, Babu, quietly do one thing. Make a routine of one hour. And 60 minutes. Bloody 60 minutes. Please. Okay. I am making this humble request to you, with folded hands. Uncle, don't make a routine of more than one hour. I am talking about the first week. Study for one hour the way I will tell you to study. Then I guarantee that you will come and tell me. Thank you brother Arjun. Thank you. Now what do you have to do? First of all, I will tell you that you have done a daily breakup subject wise. You have divided the big parts into smaller parts. You have to study history. Suppose there are three sections, modern, medieval and ancient. You have to study modern. Now you will say. That you will not be able to complete modern history in the first week, you will
6:54 not be able to start at all, what do you have to do, if you have planned modern history in a week, then first of all, focus on its significant topics, if I am talking about the topics of Gandhian era, Battle of Buxar, Battle of Plassey, modern history, then you should start with the Revolt of 1857, after that start when Gandhi came, when Gandhiji left, it depends on what you want to study, this was an example, okay, don't sit down thinking that I will study for 5-6 hours in a day on the first day, you will not be able to study, you will study for 15 minutes, you will study for an hour, then on the second day, okay, you started on the first day and said that you will study for 6 hours, you studied for 4 hours, a lot of motivation, hey brother, today you will tell everyone uncle, you will call the person whom I have not talked to till date, hey uncle I have become an IAS, on the second day you will not be able to study at all, why saturation point, this is what is called getting saturated, do only that much work in a day, as much as you can
7:42 Right now this is your capacity. If you have thought for 6 hours, then after one month you will be able to reach 60 hours, you will be able to reach in 4.5 hours. I am telling you this, it will take you a month to reach 4.5 hours. But if you are reading correctly, then one hour will be more than enough for you. I will tell you how to read it. There is a very basic Chinese quote, A journey of 1000 miles, beginning with simple steps. Yes, we have heard this. Everyone has heard it. You may say yes or no, everyone has heard it. Brother, listen to this. Implement it in your life. Learn to implement it in your life. It is not that brother, this is a quote of wisdom. There is a lot of wisdom in it. Why was it written so that people learn from it? So learn. It is written to learn. Why do you
8:29 read all these things? To learn. You read books to get a job. Those books will not be remembered. The things that you read to learn, you will remember them for your entire life. Why does this happen because you feel that job related books are very pressurized. Okay, if I tell you about history, you can watch such history movies. Okay, you love history, history is not bad for anyone, but if I say that I should change the name and title of the movie, change the hero and bring in characters, then you will say that this will come in your exam, you will see that thing as a boring document. Okay, a person's mindset is different for that thing and this journey of 1000 steps is very simple, see the first day actually, the first day will actually be for one hour only, if you have to cover a journey of 5000 km, then your
9:15 first step is that you can walk only 10 km on the first day, you can walk only 5 km, you will not reach 5000 km in a day. What is your target here, to study for 6 hours a day, so you can cover a little 6 hours on the first day, you will have to do that. The status of the first day will be the same as the first day. You have to keep it, don't make it such a big mountain, I will give you a mathematical implementation, in real life, dispitre is directly proportional to expectation, your family has given you motivation that if you bring 90 prs, I will get you Continental GT on the first day, today I will thrash you after reading, I will create a ruckus, I will tear the book, as soon as the second day comes, he says, oh friend, this book is not a thorough bubble, how will you come at 90,
10:00 okay, incentric motivation is better than accentuated motivation, okay, if you know that you have to work to improve yourself, you have to work to become better, you have to learn on yourself, only then will you be able to work, no matter how much motivation I give you, oh Sandeep Maheshwari, I will make you sit in your house, even he will not be able to teach you, the one who wants to remain useless in life, understand that you will not be able to bring change in that too, the person who wants to remain useless in his life, you should understand this, the first day's study is done, one day your studies are over, oh friend, study for 15 minutes, I will not be able to do it Now what should be done, this is that, why are you not understanding that bloody rate is greater than zero, even if you study for 15 minutes on the first day, it is better than zero, you study for 20 minutes the next day, it is better than zero, the problem is that I read Adam on the first day and I am
10:46 only able to understand Laxmikant's politics, why will you understand in completely technical terms, first learn to learn, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 25 minutes, 1 hour, the person has more tendency, so much is his status, you should understand this, do not take this thing in the wrong implementation, in the movie Sultan of Salman Bhai, Sultan says that to make status, it is necessary to know one's status, so first you should know your status, you can study for 15 minutes, you are studying for 7 minutes, you are studying for 3 minutes, in this way and if you read anything, suppose you are making a routine of studying or from where are you studying, suppose today you will be happy that now friend I will give you a history record, the weightage of history is more, oh So tell me one thing, are you planning somewhere or are you just going along relying on God, saying
11:32 yes brother, have you planned? Have n't you done it? You are reading history for a week and then it disappears. After that, after a month, you forget what you have read. It's not like that. Download any plan, any app. Any app. There is Fusion, Notion in the market. There are many apps. You can download them. Read from them. Plan your things. What is the best? I always say, take a pen and paper. Look at the diary. One diary is kept here. One diary is kept there. Okay, there are diaries kept under it as well. I do script writing in it for different things. I do daily planning in it. I read and write in what is under it. So, for every thing, if you move in a systematic way, only then will something of yours be accomplished. Only then will you achieve something in life. You should understand this in simple and sober language. I am speaking. My language offends people. But
12:20 this is the truth. Lala, I want to talk about the most important thing. huh look what is happening with the man now why am I saying to write in the diary make a plan for the day set an alarm why brother did you think I will study at 6:00 suppose today it is 9:00 in the morning you thought I will study at 6:00 in the evening do you know what happens with you oh it's 6 o'clock I had to study [ __ ] it's 6:30 now what are you thinking it's 6:30 friend now I will study at 7:00 at 7:00 something else will be useful understood if I have to sit to study at 6:00 I have written it in the diary I have to sit to study at 6:00 have you set an alarm in your mobile that yes today I have to finish modern history I have to finish maths anything set an alarm for 545 to set it for 15 minutes do not use social media during this 15 minute break I am folding my hands please okay
13:06 what did you start in the 15 minute break that yes okay all the resources book copy pen table sat down on the web great washed face hands whatever you have to do everything Do it, sit down at 6:559, you should have pen and paper in your hand, start moving as soon as the alarm rings, the phone goes off, to hell with it, there is nothing to see in the phone, I am telling you this, it is a PDF, take a print out, if you want to buy a book, buy the book, you will read it on your phone, you will go to the end, understand, a notification of 00 type comes in the phone, oh, a mail has come, Sandhya is typing a book, let me check it once, oh, she went away without replying, the book is read, the books are spread out, you are not able to read, why, okay, the phone is a destruction, throw away the phone, 6:00 o'clock, from 6:00 to 6:30 o'clock, if you are able to sit, sit at that time,
13:53 okay, understand how, whatever was explained, remember this thing in a very good way, now there are some study tips, tricks which I want to tell you, please follow this, first of all, I will tell you the method that I myself use the Pomodoro method, it is a very effective method, see how, I divide 45 minutes and one hour in two ratios 3:1 I am studying for 45 minutes and taking a 15 minute break. I am not able to study for 50 minutes. I need a 10 minute break. So, what I did was, study for 50 minutes and take a 10 minute break. I need a 15 minute break. So, what I did was, take a 45 minute break, then study for 15 minutes, then study for 45 minutes, then take a 15 minute break. Then study for 45 minutes, then take a 15 minute break. See, a lot of people will come who will say, hey, I am not able to study like this. I am a very hard student. I
14:40 study for 8 hours at a stretch. No, it is scientifically proven. The scientists are studying for 12-14 hours. Then they are scientists. Understand, they are cognitive scientists, neurologists, neuroscientists. They have done research on humans and told the methods, which methods are best and which are not. So, brother, keep a distance from such people who say that they will study for 10 hours continuously. You study, you become a scientist, you become a lawyer. Become what you want to become, maintain a distance from such people, okay look, your brain cannot function for more than six to seven hours in 24 hours, you will be active, you can talk, you will be conscious, but you cannot consume, so you will not be able to consume more than six to seven hours like this, the
15:25 brain is also an organ, it also needs rest, it needs food, it needs sleep, so you should understand this, I am telling you a very basic thing, one of the most important and crucial thing, I wanted to tell you people that in two hours of study, good battle plassy battle Buxar, hey Buxar, come here brother, don't do that, you are fooling yourself as well, you are fooling your parents as well, you are fooling everyone and it seems that you are studying, do n't do this, you will do this, there is no benefit, you don't get anything from this thing, okay, hey brother, Babar's father, I will highlight, Mohanjodaro was here, this will not be a great thing, this will not highlight the dimension of note making, waste of time, waste of skill,
16:11 waste of everything It is okay bhaiya you are calling everyone a waste, how to read, what will you read, look I am telling you how to read, it is a simple thing, this is a spectrum book, suppose what we have opened, the challenge before the new born nation, from here to here, word by word, okay, I will neither highlight anything nor write anything, what do I have to do, suppose this I love this, this is my love for this page, I will just read it, I don't have to keep anything in mind that I have to remember, I don't have to keep anything, just read, read word by word, don't think anything, this may be important, this may be important, you will automatically feel what is important, you should remember this thing, now you will feel what is important, after that what do you have to do, I will tell you a simple thing, take a pen paper, wherever you make notes,
16:58 whatever you do, okay, active recall is a very important word, active recall, I have also talked about active recall in previous videos What do you have to do in active recall? It is a very simple way of active recall. What do you do? From the first page to the last page, whatever you read, from the first word to the last word, whatever you read, start writing it down, sequence wise, in any sequence, as you remember, whatever you remember first, write it down. You have written it completely. It will take you 20-20 minutes, 15-10 minutes to write. Okay, I am talking about a single page. There will be hardly 150-200 words, out of that, I am telling you that you must have forgotten 60-76 things. You must have written 24 things. This is the tendency of humans. We forget.
17:44 We forget 76 points of our metaphors. As we forget 76 things, we remember 24 things for recall. Okay, you have written all the things. Now you open that page again. Now whatever important things are missing, note them down and highlight them in your notes. Bhaiya, this was to make a note, it will get stuck in your mind, if you start studying in this way, then anything, be it any thing, brother, these things will get stuck in your mind, any subjective question paper, any subject, these things will get stuck in your mind that you have to do this way, understood? Now let me tell you in short what all things we have talked about, the first is the pomodoro method, this is a study technique, you have to remember this, the second is to write it down through active recall, revision has to be done through active recall,
18:30 whatever thing you make notes, take an oath on Shiva, Brahma, God, whoever you believe in, whether you do n't believe in animals, dogs, foxes, Brahma, whoever you believe in, Brahma, take an oath that Bhaiya, from today onwards, active recall is my aim in life. The third thing I want to tell you is spaced repetition, apart from cramming a lot and reading a lot, you should focus on this that today you read one section, tomorrow the second, day after tomorrow the third and fourth. Day fourth section and revision of first section okay there are three techniques of revision third day seventh day and 21st day and the first technique is first day third day and seventh day okay 1 37 21 30 remember this thing mind making mapping I had told you about these four numbers I have also provided mind mapping to you people but you can also make it yourself
19:16 write anything down put the main topic in the middle divide it into small pieces sequence okay study environment and distraction what did I say don't read on the phone take a print out and keep studying comfortably understand practical schedule first of all this is what I had talked about make a practical schedule hey bhaiya I had to study for six hours I could not study for 15 minutes today no brother not for 6 hours study for one hour it is the first day keep as per the first day okay make a practical schedule first of all for seven days then for the second week then for the third week then for the fourth week okay you don't have to write in the to-do list that bhaiya today I will get up early then I will go to take a bath and defecate, I will not brush my teeth, no, you write down what you have to study today at what time, not just at what time, you have a slot from 7:00 am to 10:00 am today, you have to study this in that time, it's as simple as that,
20:01 also write down the resources, from where you have to study, otherwise your two hours will be spent in searching for the resources only, okay, I wanted to talk about all these things and the girl who had commented to me that I was not good in school and college It doesn't matter if it was good or bad, sweetie, you be careful, there should be no problem in these things, it's okay, whatever happens, we will keep talking and if anyone faces any kind of problem related to studies, health related trauma, if he is depressed, we will find some way out by sitting together or I will come here, okay, don't panic and the biggest and most important thing, friends, support each other, okay, you guys, if you think that there is competition, may god not make him study, why think wrongly about someone that he may not be able to study or I may not be
20:48 able to study about you, if suppose I start thinking about you that now you are my competition, then uplift others, if someone is demotivated, lift him up, the world is full of idiots brother, why is it okay to trouble people, support each other, this is life, after death, no one will remember the things that are remembered Good things will go, remember them and when you go, do good things before going, friend I am telling you a very simple thing, okay may all of you have a good and auspicious day, thank you so much for having me, thank you so much for your time, Arjun Singh, signing of Om Namah Shivay
