00:00:14 — Three productivity hacks from medical school
- ★★ Ali's first productivity hack from medical school is learning how to study efficiently: without learning how to learn you waste a ton of time, and once he learned a few evidence-based study techniques he had way more time. — 00:00:14
- ★★ Ali's second hack at medical school was working together with friends: they shared essays, essay plans and notes, so each did a lot less work individually and benefited from the collective work of the group. — 00:00:14
- ★★ Ali's third hack was making studying for his exams as enjoyable and energising as possible: it is so hard to consistently do something you hate, and much easier if you find a way to make it fun. — 00:00:29
- ★★★ Ali suggests asking yourself, about whatever you are doing, what are one, two or three ways you could make it just 10% more enjoyable. — 00:00:29
