    Assalam O Alaikum Salim brother! Just came across to your channel and I swear I didn't regret it at all. After watching this video, a recap of all of those 'Productivity videos' that I watched every single day flashed in my mind. You made me realise that it's important to firstly know that what you want and why you want it. And stick to it if it really matters. Thank You so much ❤! And also I subscribed! Please keep those realistic tips comingg 🦋

    I got served this video from the algorithm and then saw my favorite KZreadrs in the thumbnail. After watching, I am still wondering what the countdowns are for. I'm assuming it's a countdown to the next topic but I see it appear and then disappear so it caught my attention to watch until the end lol

    That's exactly what i was hoping for 😂 hole the video was helpful/insightful though! Also, was it a bit distracting w the timer? I could make it more subtle and shorter for the next video. Thanks for commenting!

    Competition is tough for these tests, so if you really want to excel and stand out, you have to put the time and effort in - good luck!!
