0:55 "Time * Intensity = Quality of work produced" -Cal Newport 1:44 1) Have a single target of focus 2:19 "Unlimited possibilities are not suited for man; if they existed, his life would only dissolve in the boundless. To become strong, a man's life needs the limitations ordained by duty and voluntary accepted." - I Ching 2:47 2) Keep the session sacred 3:45 3) Proper tools. Make time to maintain the tools. 4:51 4) Practice 5:51 5) Use timers, but... leave some buffer room at the end of the timed session "There's nothing an artists needs more- even more than excellent tools and stamina- than a deadline" -Adriana Trigiani. 6:52 6) Work alone. "Without great solitude, no serious work is possible"- Pablo Picasso 8:09 7) Make time for recovery 8:45 Interest. Give yourself a challenge

What I do with the Pomodoro technique is set a timer for 20 minutes and after it goes off stare at the wall for 1:30 trying to be as still as I can. In the beginning that minute-thirty is so boring that I feel I want to go back to work, but several hours later that mental break gives me is what keeps me going without blowing out. On top of that, I've caught my self literally stareing at a wall for 2 hrs thinking of nothing, a 20-minute timer prevents that from happing. I'm able to be in the library for hours and get a lot of stuff done.

Synopsis :- 1. A single target of focus. 2. Keep the session sacred. 3. Have Proper tools. 4. Practice makes a hu-man perfect. 5. Use timers - break into smaller sessions for initial boost! 6. Work alone - no group study/work. 7. Make time for recovery but only between those smaller sessions discussed in point 5. btw I simply cannot go to coffee shop, sitting along with couples dating and study. The waiter will come and ask me politely to order something. If I say no, he'll kick me out.

Now I even started a youtube channel focused on book reviews, since I read so much I'm starting to forget all that info, and I needed something to reassert what I learned!

Thomas really sheds light on all the things I also do to distract myself which really is only learned through experience, makes me realize that he suffered from all the stuff I do as well, gives me a better perception of what is possible if I really just asses all these distractions and really buckle down and start focusing and attacking my responsibilities. Another great video man thank you!

Fantastic tips mate. I agree with the importance of rest and relaxation. I think it is something often missed in the productivity space. I have felt the onset of burnout before so I now make sure to schedule in rest at the end of every day and big one at the end of the week. Where I just switch off completely and watch my favourite TV show or play a video game.Which helps me to regain my focus and energy to go at it again!

As usual solid video and presentation! I want to suggest to make a video on how to learn new subjects alone. There are a lot on study and review techniques (pomodoro) but not on learning anew. Also would be nice to hear one on how to think Again thank you for all the great work!

I was about to start some intense focus BUT I saw Tom Frank's video on Intense Focus and couldn't help but watch.

Your videos helped me through my exams! I managed to stay motivated and overall positive about them. Thank you! Keep up the awesome work!😊

Your videos are great bro. Helpful, and too the point. His vids respect our time. Sure its 10min. But its not full of nonsense, and pointless edits etc. Also great subjects. 👍🏽

Great video. I hadn't realised but eating before studying distracts me too. And great knife analogy btw. Love the channel, keep it up!!

The content you create is so inspiring! You’re like a mentor to me. Thank you for your work and keep up these amazing videos!

Dude, I didn't know where to thank you for this so I figured I would on one of the videos that I liked of yours. I love the study playlist that you've put together it is amazing like omg I was able to concentrate on my drawing so freely while I listened to it so yeah thank you for creating that awesome music playlist :) . Keep up the good work.

1:44 focus on one single task 2:50 don’t do anything before you do the task 3:47 use the right tools/ prepare yourself before starting 4:55 intense focus need practice 5:53 use timers but leave some buffer 6:53 work alone 8:10 have time for recovery

Thanks Thomas! You really come out with videos at the best times. I'm starting school soon and focusing has been difficult.

I love these strategies they're really helpful 👏💪

When you mentioned how you hate cooking with a dull knife, I felt like I had to recommend the tool my family uses to keep our knives sharp. It's called the Sharpener's Edge, made by JCS Products. It sharpens your blade in minutes and is just phenomenal. Your videos are amazing; I learn so much from them! Have a nice day!

These tips are really helpful! I love how you do your research in these videos and find sources and quotes. You work so hard! Thank you so much!

thanks for making these. It's easy to say "well yeah that makes sense" when you take a quick glance at it but it's reflection and action that creates change.

I have serious problems with focusing and I get easily distracted. Increasing my focus is one of my top priorities for this year. Great tips! Also, I want to get to bed earlier and read 25 pages every night before getting to bed. :)

Hey Thomas, something I would be really interested in, is how you come back to work when you got distracted at some point in time. I noticed, once distracted, it is like a waterfall that drags you down deeper and deeper and makes it really really hard to come back to work, and makes you think, e.g. 5 more minutes Minecraft won't hurt which then amounts to an hour. Do you have any strategies how to come back once distracted?

Beautifully explained......I already started DEEP WORK by Cal Newport.....Thanks Thomas

the thing is, i start studying hard at first, but after finishing like 7 pages or sth i start to get depressed and eventually i completely stop

Wow. You nailed it on the sacred part. I work two jobs and have a deep study regime that I do at Starbucks (I hate studying alone). So I always eat before leaving home, get a coffee, sit down, put ear plugs in and crack open my book and jump straight in. It always works. I do a slotted amount of time for each subject, and use a timer for each. That way I can always get work done, and avoid distractions. Great channel, sir. : )

Great point on the Practice tip! Our minds are like a muscle - the more we use them, the stronger they become. Practice focus to be able to focus more. Boom!

This distracted me from my work

The problem is that i can't take short breakes... every time I want to take a short break I end up being distracted and waste my time! And about the tip of relaxing and playing video games is also a problem for me because then I wouldn't be able to get back to my work and I will constantly think about gaming... Any advice please??

Noyemi Sarkisian Have you thought about how your environment might distract you for your short breaks? Like do you use your computer, phone, TV, etc. to take a break? Maybe that might be the cause. Maybe try to find a place where you can minimize any distractions and have a timer to remind yourself when you need to start working again.

I love your new style of videos!!

Quality output is "Time" (number of hours you are doing something) times (Multiply) "Intensity of focus". That is: The more time you spend with high degree of focus on your work (without much distraction), the more you will end up getting done.
