I chose this video because my biggest problem with getting work done is just motivating myself. Even with this assignment, I could've done it 3 hours ago, but I didn't. With most projects or large assignments I receive, I aim to get it done early, but when I get everything out and I'm ready to get working, I can't bring myself to do it until the last moment. Unfortunately, the video itself didn't really help. He just said "you need to be willing to motivate yourself" and didn't provide any real tips. Although the video didn't help, the comments were quite informative and actually gave some really good advice. One commenter said that by breaking the task up into smaller increments it becomes less overwhelming. I should make a list of the different parts of the assignment to get done, and complete them one at a time. So instead of saying "I need to get this assignment done" I could say "I need to make an introduction, then I need to write a body paragraph, then I need to make a conclusion" which could really help lessen the overwhelming feeling of doing a whole project/large assignment at once.

Whenever I try to study, I find it useless because I end up forgetting what I've studied right away. What was the point of me wasting an hour of my time when I didn't even remember what I just learned? This video provides some seemingly very helpful information about remembering what you study, and that is by something called the spacing effect. He says that you should try to space your studying out over the course of a few days rather than doing it all at once. I think this will be very helpful because a one-time thing can be easily forgotten, but if you make it something that lasts a more significant amount of time, it means I'll be more likely to remember it. He also states that by forgetting what I've learned by the next day of studying, remembering it would work out that part of my memory, allowing it to build like an exercised muscle.

I chose this because I'm the type of person who writes too much stuff down when note-taking which causes me to fall-behind and not pay attention to the lectures. This is related to the others because note-taking is essential to studying. The best way I've found to study is to study my own notes because, as this article states, I'll be writing down the most important things in an efficient way that is easy for me to understand.

I have no problem with reading textbooks to learn things, but what always bugged me was how time-consuming it was. I chose this video in hopes that it would teach me how I can cut down on that time and still learn the material with the reading. He provides a few tips that can be helpful to understanding college textbooks, but efficiency isn't a big part. That aside, the tips are very helpful. He says to read actively by taking notes, determine the main concepts, and measure daily progress. By doing these, I should be able to memorize my textbooks better but I can't get through them any faster. This is essentially just saying use Cornell notebook paper which I do think will help because a good summary can only be done with a solid understanding of the material.
