Video 3 of asking justin to do a video on maths and how to make mind maps for procedural subjects like maths and how to learn them more efficiently in the first place ❤

Mindset is unironically the most important one
-
I need to fine tune what I’m doing now, continue to use it, as it has been (mostly) successful. I’m very open to learning more study techniques but don’t want to waste effort on excursions and diversions that don’t pay off.
-
I'm so obsess with efficiency, and my inspiration is Justin Sung.

Your videos are always full of information

This video was super helpful for my upcoming exams. Your every methods and tips indeed are so much effective. Much love ♡

Thanks for another free resource Justin! I have a decent idea of what the quiz will tell me 😁 If you ever get a chance, it'd be interesting to hear how you think about reading / learning from books that aren't necessarily related to what you're currently studying, but rather caught your interest for whatever reason. People have different ideas about this, but most of them focus on just taking notes and/or these days obviously integrating them into a second-brain. Probably not as fitting the channel as much as what you tend to upload, but if you can fit it in somewhere it'd be cool to hear how you go about this!
-

Thank u so much for this video. I know my weakness but can not name it in an appropriate way, and now I know what limits my learning results for years.

Thank you this is a great technique, I've always been good a processing information but now that I'm trying to start my business and the areas of knowledge are starting to get more diverse and different while everything is connected has make keeping track of what I thinking really hard, so this is perfect timing
