Why I’m Able To Study 8+ Hours a Day (How To Stay Focused and Efficient)

Being able to study long hours is important, but what's more important is to stay focused and efficient and not burn out.

In this video, I discuss the ideas that I use to effectively study 8+ hours with good concentration every day without getting burnt out. These principles can be applied for both studying and working sessions and will help you study long hours with effective concentration and develop a habit of regular studying.

⚡SHORT SUMMARY:

Getting up right: Getting an ideal amount of sleep and waking up at the right time FOR YOU, will do wonders.

Optimising your mornings: Doing a few things or not doing a few things in the morning can have a huge effect on how the rest of your day pans out. So make sure you do all you can to get a great start to the day.

Having a “highlight”: Having studying as a highlight for the day and completing it gives far more satisfaction than having it as one of the half a dozen things you do in a day. This also ensures that you do all you can to get that task done that day.

Building and keeping momentum: Momentum is the secret sauce that makes studying easier. High-achievers accomplish their great and seemingly “difficult” timelines because of keeping momentum.

Setting your environment right: Having a conducive environment for studying can make a huge difference to your comfort levels while studying. A well-structured environment will help you stay focused for longer hours.

Avoiding distractions: Distractions are the potholes on your path to success. Find out what your distractions are and find ways to combat them. Be honest.

Take REAL breaks: When you’re tired of studying, do things that rejuvenate you. This could be talking to friends, going for a walk, exercising etc. Avoid activities that strain you further.

Treat yourself at the end of the day: Do what you LOVE at the end of the day after studying. This re-inforces a positive habit loop that makes your brain to want to study.

And finally, make use of the checklist provided above for at least a month to figure out what’s helping you study longer and what is not.

I’ve taken much time and consideration in making this, hope it helps you!🙌🏼

With this, hopefully, you can increase your study hours, study with full concentration for a long time and get better grades in your exams :)

You are a topper who is honest . I hate people who flex about studying whole day without any rest. That's illogical. You are actually relatable

Hello Dr. Ajay! This is Ajeya, a medical student from Kolkata. I came across your channel very recently and I just wanted to really appreciate the contents. Especially this video! ✨ A lot of study techniques that you mentioned here already matched with mine and I got some extra tips too that I hope would really help me to get through the two more years I have before my internship and beyond that as well. Keep sending positive vibes to all us medicos and doctors out here. Keep up the good work. Best wishes! 😇

[reshmasharma]

I completely agree upon this - take a walk in a break time. I am doing Ph.D. at IIT - Bombay. I have observed that when I take a break and just keep thinking about what I did or the problems I solved are right; many times I came across minor things which I could add or modify. Many a times, during that walk time, I happened to get many different ideas I can work on to make my work better. So yeah, it works for me immensely.

[diveshjairamdasani]

You have described each and every point so clearly with examples .
Unlike others who just throw tips & tricks like cannonball without the proper explanation behind that action.
Thanks doc

[anuppatil]

A great video ! I think this not only helps while studying but also while working, there are a lot of distractions (especially with the current situation of Work from Home).

[medhamahesh]

"A little bit less painful" 😂😂😂😂👌 Thank you for this! But can you please do a video on competitive exams too?

[nityatripathi]
