Bro I literally have 0 attention span. I can't sit for 1 hour straight and study.


Instead, I "study" for 7 hours listening to music and just kinda repeating what I just read. And I have to learn fucking latin terms for everything lmao.


I wish I could just turn into auto-pilot mode while I study, and then after 2 hours my brain would just eat everything up

Start early as possible in the day. The fresher your brain the better. Don't consume any digital media before you study or listen to any music, so pretty much don't give yourself any instant dopamine before studying. Potentially keep carbs low depending on how they make you feel. A good nights sleep before studying helps. Drink caffeine before studying sometimes.

Download cold turkey blocker (free) and use it to block all distractions on your laptop. There are also other blockers you can use for phones.

If you block everything then you are less likely to get distracted

Also don't listen to music while studying

the only real way is to be interested in what ur studying

interest = dopamine

dopamine = addy

5-10mg IR addy + locking urself out from external distractors, putting urself in an environment with likeminded focused people aka quiet, public libraries etc.

quit music for a few weeks, its extremely dopaminergic but also distracting when u actually have to learn new material, i only used music when i knew the material but then needed to do a lot of practice problems, mostly relevant for math courses i took

and then combine that with a way to convince urself that whatever ur studying is important / useful / relevant to ur life and ur set

cocaine is pretty good just do really small lines or if you are broke modafinil at 400mgs is decent
