What I got from this video is that we can employ very small, almost minuscule things to regain or train us to focus better. The key is finding those small things and attributing energizing feelings to them that will urge us to focus on the task at hand
With your videos, it doesn't even matter what they are about, I always get motivated for things in my life. Thank you!
and i love how informative your videos are, without wasting too much time with exessive introductions, and exaggerated explanations or repeat points neat. to the point. and informative. thanks ali!

Just started skillshare! Hi! I'm a 27 year old student studying screenwriting and this video is incredibly helpful for me, who just got out of my biology class. I'll be sure to refer to this video when it comes to harder lessons. I actually already use the pomodoro method and it's a total game changer in regards to effective studying!

Pomodoro is everything
I know this is completely out of the topic but it needs to be said. This is the 3rd video of yours that I'm watching and I loved them all, they are straightforward, very informative, and all evidence-based which is the best part but what I can't help but notice is how cute you look and even cuter when you smile.
This is super useful, I often feel like my focus is fragile and can be broken by external factors. The idea of getting in control of my focus as more than a “fleeting feeling” is a great thing to aspire to. Thanks!
Last week I tried Pomodoro technic while I was under a lot of stress due to a report that I had to write, and it worked for me so much!! I spent like 12 hours each day working without feeling exhausted. I love your content that also has helped me a lot.
I'm so happy that I discovered your channel. You don't know how much I have learnt from you most especially your Podcast. I listen to it almost every time of the day. Thank you so much. I have already subscribed to your newsletter. Hope to learn more from there
Thankyou so much Ali!!. Right now i'm really strugling to stay consistent while studying but i just lost my focus after some time this video really help me to be more concentrated ❤️
Thanks for another inspirational video! I really like the "adventure" mindset to kick off the day. 😍
I found Ali's voice always calms me down when I am anxious and nervous about lots of unfulfilled goals in life and work.
I really love how you make productivity accessible and achievable for the common person.
Feels illegal to be so early

Recently, I've been having difficulty concentrating while studying. As a result, I was searching the internet for videos to help me overcome this problem. I was pleasantly surprised to find that you had just posted exactly what I needed. You were a true lifesaver! 🙌🏻
3:34 That pen flip was assume 🔥
you are always inspiring and give me so much motivation that I just want to start and rebuild my life
9:46 This is so right. I am a medical student in Czech republic and I always hated how my classmates never wanted to socialize. Not just with me, but with anyone. Everyone locked up in their rooms and studying. I will be finishing my studies soon and can say, most of the time I felt like I was in a “social void”. No wonder they all suffer with depression and stuff. If I spent all my days in my room, I would be depressed as hell
Omg hi, Ali! your methods have helped me so much, I was a person who couldn't even focus for 5 minutes but after watching this video I have been able to sit down and focus while studying for more than 2 hours. I love your videos, they're very inspiring. I think more young souls should watch these types of videos instead of spending time on their phones, and social media, and playing games. I thank you from the bottom of my heart as this video and more videos and a lot of videos that you have uploaded have been very helpful. with love, I hope your channel grows more and more and more and more I cannot thank you enough. I love how simplified your videos are about things people should know also I took you SkillShare class and it has helped me pretty good but I felt like I was in the class, it was very exciting experience for me to learn from a very experienced person like you. again, I cannot thank you enough i wish i could but i cannot because my heart's a mess and whenever someone is so good at doing something i can only wish the best for them. with love.
damn. i have to say ali. i really really REALLY like this style of video that you've got going on lately. like genuinely, you're doing so well keep it up my mann!

Focusmate is also really great for finding study/work buddies!
Rize is an absolute game changer. Thanks Ali for sharing this beautiful app
nice to see you've used "Kabhi Khushi kabhi gam" clip for movie :D
Bro, anyone else mindblown about the pencil spin and throw action at 3:35 hahahaha
Everyone step is helpful. But if someone had given these methods 4 years ago, the situation might have been better today. The problem is that no one talks about these methods. Therefore, those who come after us will also have this problem❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ayeeeeeeee its the episode from the live!!
Love the video! Thank you so much! Btw, love the microphone! What brand is it?
Whenever Ali mentions his book, I get excited. Good luck!
Remember watching this video on the live stream!! Amazing video it is bit different from the past ones I think it feels more paced up which makes it much more interesting and more hooking
I'm so grateful for all the videos that you provide for our benefit and success. Thank you, sincerely.
Thank you
Already subscribed to Huberman Lab channel (and also yours, Ali)! Totally worth it, being thrown by the incredible facts and science-based tools to deepen the knowledge, which is rarely noticed and somewhat counterintuitive to our perception. Highly appreciate your recommendations to get to know another high quality channel.
This video is good Distraction for me ❤️🥰🙏🙏
I’m studying for the bar exams. I needed to see this video.
nice video ali, I can proudly say that I have learned something worth gold today. thank you so much
i love your videos sooooooo much, your voice just hits different and your parable shorts are soo amazing,,,,love love
While watching this I got distracted and went to like tt 3 times😭😭😭😭 The video is amazing as usual tho
Man, the edition on this video is just amazing! Absolute beast 🙃
Please never stop doing this stuff! - you are awesome
I’m so happy to see how Ali uses his Desk Pad. It’s very cool.
Ali Brother , You have Really changed my Mindset on studying and productivity . Thanks Brother

Mindset is everything wherever you want to succeed. Why do we need focus in studying or learning anything while I don't need when comes to play games or hanging out,scrolling mobile? The take away is that we don't enjoy studying. We are obsessed with recreation. 1.Making study a bit fun by using some techniques 2. I have to do it in a way my mind feels happiness even everyone says boring. 3. Can you take it an adventure inside your mind. To establish that you can incorporate some physical change in your daily scheduled programme like writing or drawing a path by the walls,creating mental song. Also appreciate little success You achieved in a day. Feeling of gratitude will givr you a peaceful night sleep. Why not you consider it as a game and a collection of small levels? When you complete easy level. Raise your hand and applause yourself for contributing to your long cherished goal.

Thank you Ali for this video! Even I believe that enjoying the journey and focusing on each small steps keeps me more motivated and consistent rather than thinking all the time that I'm aiming for something big, it might even make it boring.

I like the content only one thing always stop me to continue listening is the speed how Mr Ali speak, so fast that make me stressed , I want listening to every word slowly and complie the meaning
