What I’ve learnt in this video

1. Work on holidays and weekends. If you work on the days where u don’t have school, you probably can get like 100+ more days of work

2. Wake up earlier/Sleep later. When you wake up very early or sleep very late, no one’s around to distract u. Use this time to get more work done.

3.This is what hard will feel like. When you first do the thing, it will be very hard, but as time passes you’ll get used to it

As someone who is making massive progress(2 years into Self improvement) these 3 tips are gems boys
Take em and implement

[SandeepKumarKuanar-hbwv]

So, All that is vouched by Ruff today actually works
Believe me or not, I have been doing this myself since the past 3 months, I scored very low in the Mid-Sems in my 2nd Semester, so that was dropping my yearly average to 6.7 SGPA, well I ditched the notion of work-life balance and got straight into work for like 2 months, I am currently at the 1st year average of 7.8 SGPA, I know its the significant jump that I was expecting, but I build a system during this time, I played the long game, the marathon, I extrapolated this concept into my life during the summer break too, and I am into UX/UI design and stuff around it, I am seeing the results now. I know this is tempting to just get burnout and ditch the entire thing, but avoid that. I did and now I am getting better by better.

Thank you Ruff for putting this video online, and thanking you for reading this!

The question is if working all the time as suggested, as in during weekends and holidays, wouldn't it be worse for your mental health and other aspects of your life. I mean, these days are there for a reason, to take a break and recharge for the next week or year of school (depending on weekend or break). And for many students, this may be the time they go back to their home countries to visit family, where it might not be the best idea or the most ideal to do work/learn (maybe up to an hour a day, which is still significant, but not much more).

Another counter-point I would like to make is that in many school systems, such as my own, I would have to wake up at 5 to get to school at 7, and I know others that may need to get up even earlier, so waking up earlier is just not possible or practical. I would like to add on to the better point that was made which is to set aside an hour or two everyday, and if you aren't able to find this time, keep track of all the time you may be spending on social media for example, and see if you can take these small amounts of time, which may be right after you come back from school, or during breaks in your homework. And then when you have a weekend or a holiday, spend all of that time, actually taking a break (not on social media, but going outside etc.), and then come back recharged for the next week or year.

Balance is key.

The thing is that my school starts at 7, and my school mode starts from 5:30 because of travel time, etc. I really don't think waking up at 4 or 5 is going to be good for me as I'll be half asleep, tf am I supposed to do? I don't think it'll be bad working after school but your "Full Proneness" thing is getting to me 😭

[random.__.]

AHHH I FRCKING NEED THISS SO BADF😭😭. TYSM RUFF

[kritidwivedi]

Alright the part of the video I think was most important is that
You must be aware of which mode you are in every hour of the day. Anytime you're in a mode which is unnecessary and you're not supposed to just shift to a mode you know is productive and good for you. I'm gonna implement this in my day def...thanks Ruff❤

[ladyneko]

TYSM for this video, and all the other ones. If i didn't find one of your videos, i would be still in my old mindset, doing the same mistakes and bad habits.

Ofc, i'm still learning how to become even better at my pace and according to my situation, but i just wanted to say it -and i'm sure i'm not the only one to think that-

Thank you, Ruff !

[poojasingh]

Could you put the subtitles back in cuz the ones you had earlier just felt so satisfying and provided comfort

[jellymoon]

i was exactly struggling with these problems.. as a JEE aspirant this helped a lot, tq sm ruff :))

[JIMX]

Same here. Honestly, when I wake up I already tell myself ‘alright your in work mode, focus’ and from there I just do my routine: revise notes, practice sheets, work on school projects and other extra curriculum stuff. Even before I watched Ruff I was on self improvement without even knowing I was on self-improvement 😅. But Ruff in general helped me develop my general life habits and so forth so thanks man. God bless everyone!

...I'm really worried for senior high. I'm going to the best school in the division and I can say I'm already used to sacrificing my weekends and sleep while maintaining good mental health and sleep.

Visualizing my schedule for when the new school year starts: (vacation rn)
All I think about/goals:
Maintain excellent performance in school/high grades
Making art
Growing following on instagram and starting on tiktok
Maintaining my tribe (best friends that help me stay sane)


I'll wake up at 5 am, get ready for school, at 6 am its transportation. If no traffic, get there by 6:45 then sign in on the fingerprint scanner. At 7 its the flag ceremony and cleaning the classroom. At 8 classes start, ends at 4 pm. We clean the classroom, chat for a bit then go home at 5 pm. I get home at 6 pm if there's not too much traffic. Hopefully there's not too many assignments and projects and I can do them at school- but if not, I'll be done with school at 7 pm. 7-8 eat dinner, do chores for a bit. At 8-9 I chat with my online friends (they keep me sane) and get dressed and wash my face (my acne is ok now but if I slip up it breaks out)

...regrettably here's where my bad habits start as I go on my phone for 2 hrs mindlessly scrolling until I go to sleep at 11. In vacation or holidays I do just mostly relax and only do work 1/4 of the time (not counting art)

I just realized: I'm gonna have to sacrifice all of my extracurriculars as I had the habit of running for the student council, being president of a language club, being a scout, etc...since it requires to stay more hours at school and I can't afford to do that anymore. And maybe I need to stop joining every contest I see that won't actually benefit me...I always grab opportunities but sometimes its a short term goal that doesn't benefit the long term ones.

My dream really is to be an artist, making commissions and making money through my following. But I have to make it priority 2 it for the more practical option of going for political science (major) economics(minor) in the being forced into it, im also good at this...but its second to my art.

Why art? its my passion and it really keeps me alive.

On Saturday I spend half the day doing school work for projects or performance tasks that need catching up. Half of the day is spent making more art or social media management. On Sundays our church is far but we always go there, its in a mall (faith is important and even if I'm too tired my parents force me to go) after I buy things to sell to schoolmates at the mall (my parents give me capital) since my allowance isn't really enough to last me...(I need load and extra money) I mean its enough only for transportation and food but I need data for schoolwork.

will have no free time- eh I'm used to it. Tho I always do my schoolwork and art in advance at school since the teachers sometimes don't teach or just assign us stuff (Philippines) btw I'm 15 going on 11th grade this year.

I am grateful to God for giving me good mental health, being charismatic, and good base intelligence🤧 I was able to maintain this in junior high because of the free time at school when there's no teachers or just "self study" time so I'm able to do all my schoolwork in advance. What if its not the same at my new school and its even stricter than science class (junior high)?

man...life is hard for us and there are definitely times I get mental breakdowns or get distracted by my crush😃

....any advice? I seriously think I'm doing the best that I can. Anywho, I love your videos kuya Ruff🤩 they've helped me so much and is different from other self improvement videos.

[Netherite_]

This is so motivating, I think cause it helps me visualize myself doing the side gig I want, and because it helps my belief that I can do it. Cutting out the phone time or wasted time and unproductive time is good as well. Also, I haven't been as productive because of a lack of sleep, so I need to work on that. Any tips?

[redfinance]

One of the things I’m worried about is putting all my energy into only 1 or 2 things. It sounds weird, but I’m worried of losing my skills in the other fields. I guess this is just the way to make good progress fast?

thanks my goat going through the same thing but in a different chapter :)
