I chose this video because of I wanted to know how I could avoid distractions and keep my motivation in school and in my personal life. In the video, Thomas Frank explained that motivation can be changed with the reward, consequences, and distractions. Moreover, as those three factors change, your motivation will too. I agree with the video with the idea that creating extra rewards and consequences can help train your brain to keep focused. For example, if I needed to study for at least an hour, then I could plan to have a small snack or piece of candy I liked if I completed the task. I also agree that motivation is also based on how willing you are to do a task are versus not being able to achieve a task. Though some tasks may seem daunting, blocking out study periods and sticking to a schedule can help achieve any task.

I chose this video because of the amount of students, like me, who are doing school work from there home. Because many students are not accustomed to learning in a online format, some tend to plan less and procrastinate until the last minute. I really liked the tip of choosing three main “intentions” per study sessions and breaking down those tasks to get started. I agree with the video how it is good to set a timer for how long to work and remove all controllable distractions that may be around. The video went as far as to give the recommendation to make even create a distraction journal/log that the reason for the stop and the duration to try and show yourself how long you could have been working. Moreover, it could help you stay more motivated on your intentions. I don’t think a distraction blocker app on your computer is necessary, but it could help those who check their emails frequently throughout the day.
