Tell us about a project/activity you feel passionate about.
I don’t believe in motivation. It’s volatile. It is my firm belief that if you want to change the world, you have to be truly driven to do it. You have to want it so bad, that even when you don’t feel like working at it, you’ll do it anyway. I believe in building habits—-positive habits that, when persistently worked at, build towards your goals until you eventually reach them. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, I had been in the darkest place I’d ever been. My mother had just left for Vietnam a month prior and was going to stay there for two more. I was alone. I began to struggle in school. I started losing sleep and wondering what I’d do with myself. While in that dark place, I found my flame. It was exacerbated by the desire to help those who were also lost and broken. Thinking about how I could help those who were stuck at home as well, I realized that I could share my drive online. I would lead by example by showing others just how much one person can accomplish when they are truly driven to do it. I tested my resolve and started producing online content where I’d study every day for 12 hours. It was a big risk. I’d have to invest a lot of money and time into something unprecedented. I was ready, however, and started on March 20, 2020. It’s now March 20, 2021. After over 300 live streams, I studied 2,880 hours and my flame is stronger than the day I started. I built a following of hard workers whose flame was ignited by mine.

How can anyone dislike this video

He is literally studying

[shipra]

Please read this, and dont report for God's sake. To anyone saying neg about him, kindly go through his channel and description box (for FAQs) once, you'll know that he has made 1000s of students realise their "drive" towards a goal and their worth in this world.
Right now he is in college, it's his final week, honing up his skills in japanese and working on a project, he is working as a lab researcher and is heading towards a great internship too.

It's not unhealthy at all because he is studying in a pomodoro way, after each session he takes breaks. Even after the stream, he has his life to live freely.
He is much better than a student who watches random YouTube video daily and "passes" exams, it is not about the scores or getting an A+, but the point is, Building such resilience and drive towards a goal is rare.
This is the main message of this channel.
We all should respect him for being so real, and driven towards his goals.

James, if you are seeing this,
Remember that we all love your resilience and perseverance. You will always have a special place in our hearts. ❤

Also, please read Atomic Habits, Deep work, and Cant hurt me! If you want to find the zeal inside you, recommended by him.
Love you all lovely people.

[tsunamie]

The fact that when he ends the views are at 150k+... goes to show how many people drop in during the day to study along with him, its amazing what he’s done for so many :’)

[danisayuri]

I was very unmotivated/lacking discipline and drive, and after I found your stream I got back to be focused and remembered my goal! Thanks ! ✨

[TheFlamingGamerYT]

As always, 9:19 for those that wanna study. Good luck to everyone, and thanks for the stream James! Also, remember: it’s not the motivation that gets you through, it’s a drive. Be driven to do what you want to do, and I believe in you. Also, to you James, I absolutely respect and appreciate you for being driven to reach your goals, and you’ve come so far since the beginning. Much love and support for you my man, and you never disappoint. I really do wish you the best, just because you’ve done so much for so many people that study with you from your streams (I was a part of it too, and I’m now gonna find a university for me to go to one day). Again, thank you so much for these streams James, I absolutely appreciate the hard work ❤️

[godzilla_]

you always motivate me to study ... quarantine and online classes have been really stressful for me and i have zero motivation to do anything... but your live streams have helped me studying and try hard to achieve my goals... thank you

[dimitriszk]

Im writing my final exam on Monday, whatever the result might be I owe you a big thank you for helping me (someone who was never good at concentrating) concentrate for the first time in his life for so many hours. What you're doing here is really kind and helpful and I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way about you. Thank you James stay strong, kind and healthy ❤️

[khooshiabdul]

the way he is blowing up is crazy, been here since 9k subs lmaooo. I feel like a proud supporter :)

[rheasahu]

We live in different sides of the world, so when you finish studying, I start studying. I'm struggling to complete all the 10 hours of study with you, I almost do 8 and then pass out :p But I will get there....thank you James!

[runee]

Best 12 hours I've spent in a while. Thanks james. <3

[IrredeemablyEvil]

Woke up at 3:00 am, studies for 2 hours now. Aiming up for two more before work. Make it happen!

[kathleensalaysay]

For some reason, YouTube recommended this to me. I’m glad I found it, very much needed right now.

P.S. I feel like all your viewers are so proud of you. You are so disciplined. I know you’ll have more subscribers soon.

[jaygondaliya]

[阿莉-ru]

Im currently studying mandarin and im still tryna build a good studying habit and seeing him study for 12hrs, makes me also want to study for at least 8hrs a day. Never knew you're the person i need to be inspired.😹 谢谢你啊！❤️

[Red-mouo]

Plot twist: he was only late because he wanted to know how to say “buenos dias mis amigos”

[pavloslee]

Hey James! So happy to find this awesome and inspiring channel. Thank you for your passion and drive :) I study every day with you!
Just one request, would it be possible if you put time sections in the timeline? Helps me more tracking with my 1 hour studying sessions as well. I hope others find it helpful too!
