let me guess you are here because you
are tired of spending hours studying
only to feel like nothing sticks or
maybe you are wondering if it's even
possible to study just one hour a day
and still get perfect grades well let me
tell you it is possible and no this is
not some clickbait promise or magic
trick it's all about working smarter not
harder in this video I'm going to break
down the psychology of learning proven
strategies and real life examples to
help you maximize results without
wasting endless hours so let's get
started before we dive into the how
let's bust a common myth the more hours
you study the better your grades will be
we've all been there thinking if we just
study for five six or even 8 hours
straight we'll nail that test but here's
the truth your brain doesn't work that
way research shows that your brain's
ability to focus starts to decline after
just 25 to 30 minutes of intense
studying so the longer you go without
breaks the less effective your studying
becomes here's a fun fact studies from
the University of California found that
students who studied for fewer focused
hours actually performed better than
students who crammed for long stretches
why because quality beats quantity think
of it like working out let's say you're
trying to build muscle if you spend 8
hours straight at the gym lifting
weights you're not going to get stronger
you're going to burn out the same goes
for your brain so instead of wasting
hours pretending to study I'm going to
show you how to use that one precious
pro all right let's get into the meat of
this video
the 1-hour study formula that will help
you maximize your time and get perfect
grades I've broken it down into five
steps and each one is backed by science
and tested by students who've nailed it
step one plan like a strategist you
can't just sit down and start randomly
flipping through your textbook that's
like trying to win a video game without
knowing the controls you need a plan
here's how to do it start with your goal
at the beginning of your study hour ask
yourself what do I need to accomplish
today be specific for example instead of
saying study history say memorize the
causes of World War I
prioritize not all topics are created
equal focus on what's most important or
what you're struggling with the most if
you're preparing for a test focus on the
questions that are most likely to show
up break it into
chunks divide your study hour into
smaller segments like 20 minute blocks
this keeps your brain fresh and focused
here's a real life example let's say
you're studying biology instead of
trying to read an entire chapter in one
go spend the first 20 minutes reviewing
key terms the next 20 minutes
summarizing the main ideas and the last
20 minutes testing your yourself with
practice questions this way you're not
just studying you're studying
strategically step two use Active
Learning techniques here's the biggest
mistake students make passively reading
or highlighting let me tell you
highlighting isn't studying it's just
coloring you need to engage with the
material to actually learn it here are
some of the best Active Learning
techniques the Fineman technique this is
my favorite take a concept you're trying
to learn and explain it out loud as if
you are teaching it to a 5-year-old if
you can explain it simply you understand
it if you get stuck it shows you what
you need to review practice testing
don't just read your notes test yourself
studies show that self-quizzing is one
of the most effective ways to retain
information apply what you learn
try connecting what you are studying to
real life examples for instance if you
are learning about economics think about
how supply and demand affects the price
of your favorite
sneakers Active Learning is like putting
your brain on a treadmill it keeps it
engaged and helps you retain information
faster step three eliminate
distractions let's be honest
distractions are the biggest killers of productivity
