PERSONALITY-based Study Tips | Tools for Better Grades

In this video, I go over how to determine your personality, the strengths and weaknesses of personality types, and most importantly how to be a more effective student and get better grades with each personality type. Gretchen Rubin’s Four Tendencies are a powerful way to characterize personalities. Unlike Myers Briggs, Enneagram, StrengthsFinder, and others, the Tendency Personalities are based on the simple concept of inner and outer expectations, and simply describe when you do and do not act. Understanding the nuances of your personality type can allow you to optimize your strengths and work around your weaknesses. You'll also learn how to deal with people who have different personality tendencies than you!

Me too, but sometimes I feel that Rebel vibe too, and I can find Obligers and Upholders annoying as hell if they are too uptight or worry wart, micromanager/ co-worker police types. I'll do it, buy only if it suits my plans and goals, don't like busy work, but there again, will do it if it suits my plans....I do like to gather data and I do like to find loopholes if needed, ad well as effective shortcuts. Needless to say, Upholders and Obligators get annoyed with me sometimes. They think I am "overthinking" things or being too needy for information. The Rebel in me says "F-you...as long as I'm succeeding at tasks I WANT TO DO my own way, then mind your own business" ...lol...Yes. I have issues with Obligers, but know alot of awesome people who are in fact Obligers at wk and let's be honest, even though we can annoy eachother when crap hits the fan and protocols can fix it it's usually the Upholders and Obligers extension we hit first. When it comes to needing more creative work arounds or making a tough decision against the protocol grain for the good of the many...it's the Questioners and Rebels that get rung up.

I'm a rebel. I struggle a lot with deadlines and forcing myself to do something. But when, I just chill and don't pressure myself, I suddenly start becoming productive. Also, another real factor that helps me grind is when people think that something is hard and a lot of people fail in doing it, I always feel challenged not to be "one of those people" who failed because I love excluding myself and thinking I'm just like the other people.

This video is okay, in my opinion. I think you focused too much on determining the type-which can be figured out in 2 mins using the quiz in the description-and not enough on detailed, utilitarian methods to improve based on personality type. I think that, generally, your videos are the opposite.

[@nicab77]

I’m definitely a questioner. For example, I’m taking organic chemistry this semester and I’m trying to learn exactly how to study for it. I’ve been watching your videos about how to actively study, and trying to absorb and learn the most efficient way to learn and succeed. Regardless of how difficult this class may be, that doesn’t stop me from wanting to learn exactly how I can be efficient and succeed.

[@monocerotos]

I got Obliger, but also fit very well into the category of Questioner, so I think this has the most value to me by saying I am a mix between the two. Most of all, I am just terrified of commitments and meeting expectations and have developed a very mean inner voice towards myself over the years which results in a tendency to self-sabotage and that's why I'm sitting here watching this video instead of studying. Only the faintest hope of freeing myself from my personal hell and growing out of the toxic traits of my personality, keeps me going. And I WILL get there!

[@WittyKitten]

Got Upholder and it's scarily accurate. I love having a routine and when something disrupts it, I go on with life but it feels wrong. I adapt well, but it's really difficult for me to shift things around when I didn't originally want/plan it that way...

I'm an obliger and when I study for exams, it helps me stay on track when my classmates expect me to solve a certain amount of old questions for them or help make a study guide. In the end, even if I do a lot of work, I usually remember more than if I just do it for myself.

[@GaboCodzArtz]

I got questioner. I can totally agree with that but I've been moving closer between being a questioner and an upholder. Used to be an extreme questioner. As an opinion, I see having both the Upholder and the Questioner as a good combination for me. It gives me enough flexibility to change while being determined in a good habit. Intermittent fasting is actually a good habit if you're planning to lose fat (based on personal experience for about half a year now). I'm planning to become a surgeon and these videos really help alot in whether or not I should commit on this. One of the questions that gave a HUGE impact on me was the "What are you willing to suffer for? ". Thanks for the videos dood, hope to see more and God Bless!

[@sophsabelli3000]

I got upholder. I completely agree, I’m mostly driven by my perfectionistic tendencies, anxiety and I enjoy impressing others sooo sticking to routines and getting stuff done is easier for me than having to think about what I’m doing multiple times a day, because that wastes time and energy.

[@Mauntium]

I'm a questioner, and I clicked on this video because I wanted as much information on how to change my nature as possible before deciding for a course of action. I took notes, then merged the information back into the giant mindmap I created to model human physiology (especially mine) to find out what I should do and not forget all the stuff I see on this topic. Edit: I just realized that the mindmap I created is a GIGANTIC manifestation of analysis paralysis. But how do I make myself follow a course of action if I cannot convince myself that it is worth following (because doing so would take forever)?

Thank you so much for this video ! I didn't know this "4 tendencies" type but it helped. I saw countless videos, including some of yours, talking about accountability and having a partner and how that helps to be consistent, and I didn't understand why it never worked for me. But I'm a questioner, so of course it doesn't make sense for me to add an external expectation, when I'm much better at following internal ones (at least, when I'm not struggling with analysis paralysis)

[@sexybeast7728]

All 4 tendencies can be explained through the Big Five personality traits. Upholder is high in thread conscientiousness and neuroticism, fairly high in thread openness to experience. Questioner is very high in thread openness to experience and he is not high in thread agreeableness (so whatever from medium to bottom). Obliger is NOT low in conscientiousness, neuroticism and agreeableness. Rebel is very low in agreeableness. I am a questioner so i know. ;)

[@djt597]

I'm also a questioner, but those are very low for me in the Big 5

I think it can also be explained by MBTI or Myers Briggs... maybe idk all I know if for my type.. I'm a Rebel, INFP and type 4w3... I love these things cuz I rrly wanna get to know myself but once its accurate for me I dont rrly care if anyone else says if its accurate or not 😂😂😂

I'm a rebel but I score high in agreeableness. Something tells me it's more complicated.

[@simoroshka]

Is there a good book or other resource on the Big Five? I am struggling to find anything past the basic definitions

[@doubleiis7675]

It’s more related to the cognitive functions of mbti. I can see that each of the four types are directly related to these cognitive functions: Upholders = Te users Questioners = Ti users Obligers = Fe users Rebels = Fi users

[@adrisoa]

It's scary how accurate questioner is for me omg. now I know what to improve on and i’ll research more on questioners study tips. Thanks!

I don't like The Four Tendencies model because it is unsupported by science. Also Gretchen Rubin has no qualifications that I know of other than being a writer. I agree with the essence of the idea though, knowing how your personality works is essential to becoming successful.

Although I have great desires to do things for my own benefit, I struggle to "kick my own butt" to get into gear and get things done. Something interesting I noticed by listening to the descriptions of the other types, though, is that, at different times as a student, I have been all different types, usually depending on how much I enjoyed a class or felt its material was essential to learn.

I have just taken the quiz first before watching this video in full. I am a Questioner. Which this result is spot on!! I have been a questioner (I am very curious/inquisitive and love to research information) my whole life since I was a toddler and I am now age 34 going on 35 this year 2019. I remember my late Mommy telling me a memory of when I was around age 2 which I would constantly question things then I would decide what I wanted to do. Thank you so much for posting this, now I will watch the whole video. :) Watching the video, I can see that Upholder and Obliger results would fit me too because I love organization, structures and rules and I notice these describe how I have been taking my notes while at University (I have returned to University for a career change, I am a USAF Veteran). But the Upholder tendency is not helpful with my memory and comprehension with studying because I have been recently diagnosed with Dyslexia (my struggles are memory and comprehension) so I am watching KZbin videos to learn about different note-taking strategies that would work best for me. Rebel result kicks in for me when I am struggling with a task so I will my best to achieve it. But my Questioner result is what fuels my drive so I do question and decide how I want to do my studying but I have been told by a lecturer that I need to listen to what she has suggested on how to learn the study material.

I was on an obliger rebellious phase last semester too. It was so hard to comply with all the pressure in college to the point that i dont go to some of my classes anymore bec of anxiety. But what helped me get through that phase was self expression. I started drawing and writing. I realized that i just needed an outlet. I started to talk to a friend too about my struggles. Do not keep your emotions to yourself. Cry when you need too ;-; (also it may be out of the topic/shameless promo but... try watching Stray Kids' music videos. They helped me get through that phase. They make really inspiring music. I recommend Grow Up and Mixtape#2. Turn on english cc too. I swear you wont regret it :) Take care! )

At the same time, I feel as though I sometimes exhibit traits from the other three by choosing friends/family over responsibility (at my own emotional turmoil), over-analyzing certain things that are not immediately relevant to my success, and feeling flickers of hopelessness behind the curtain of overwhelming doubt/fear that manifests sometimes, but it all depends on what mood I'm in. I definitely feel like my baseline is a Upholder though. Very interesting, thanks!

I got questioner. I realized that as I took the test and then went over the results that I had to explain to myself why it was asking what it was and how the handful of questions contributed to the overall results so that I could accept them. I have never taken a personality quiz that I felt was so accurate and now I am sending it and this video to friends and family.

Questioner here. I just realized how much I question things. I've been thinking too much of a *topic* for my science project. I'm questioning what's best for the science project.

[@hassenkacem2324]

I’m a questioner

[@dctRMT2024]

I'm upholder. Thank you for this vids😊

[@yourfuturedocburenbeiya]

Awesome video once again! I watch your videos during breaks. :) I am definitely an Obliger based on this...Sooo accurate, yet it is so sad because it is so true and I never realized it fully until now/recently. :( On a good note which is so accurate based on the Obliger personality type, I find videos like yours inspiring and motivating and it definitely helps get me going!

[@lovexstory2896]

im an obliger

[@stevenvillar6142]

I'm like a combination of a questioner and a rebel. Is that possible?

[@Tobias_world]

Stvn Dgreat Same. I was wondering that too. Do you know your MBTI type? I am ENTP

[@stevenvillar6142]

Tobias I'm INFP

[@mylanyoung]

It's totally normal to be more than one. We're humans, we don't just fit into one box; we're usually a combination of things.

[@stevenvillar6142]

Jolene Mylan Young Very well said. But the thing with these "personality type" tests is that you will just confuse your mind or think of yourself as something you may or may not be. I'm not saying it's wrong but people have different opinions, point of views, etc. so the bottomline is that, these "personality types" are kind of nonsense because no matter how people think of you or how you think of yourself it is still you who will decide what you really are. Maybe I'm completely wrong with the things I've said, but again, it is just my point of view. "I think therefore I am" René Descartes.

[@sampajam6256]

As you said, we are more something like a continuum, than something predefined, I can find in myself all tendencies, may be we should try all the tips you proposed I take the quiz many times I think I'm mainly an obliger, secondly a questioner, thirdly a rebel, and fourth a upholder

[@amib6887]

I got questioner and after reading the overview on the website, I realised how accurate it was

[@haleykatz932]

Definitely a questioner lol no wonder why I'm always asking "why?"

[@nessamaria5569]

Me when I saw this video in my recommendations: Wait a sec! They're telling us our personality based on our hogwarts houses?! Me at the end of the video: Ok. I was wrong. But atleast there was hermione...? This is actually a good video, though.😂😂

[@charlomakes]

I am an upholder. Make a lot of sense why I look and read the textbooks so much and doing all the work in group projects. At least I know now.

[@idontknow-ms8mc]

I have taken the 4 tendencies quiz twice. First time, it said I was a rebel. Plausible. But I took it again and tested as a Questioner - which makes perfect sense. Some of the tips brought out for questioners I have already been doing in some capacity -- just now I am able to see the connection to my study life.

[@raifreckles7412]

At first I thought I was a questioner, then an obliger, but none of them really fit in and so, my final result was rebel. Which makes perfect sense! Time to dive deeper 👏👏

[@cherrycase143]

Obliger all the way! I read the book a while ago and it helped me so much...

[@sakshidhawan1519]

I took the quiz before watching the video. It says I am a Questioner. And it describes me accurately. My mind is blown!

[@Shri100percent]

I got questioner!! It all makes so much sense now!!

[@cambk7392]

This is so interesting because I find find ppl I know who fall exactly into all 4 categories, I'm personally an upholder

[@carlavincent7405]

Thank you for this video. I'm an Obliger, and this video was very very instructive, thank you !

[@maximgavrilovich]

Rebel. The best thing I've caught is that you can live great with any type, but you need to understand yourself and others to increase your quality of life. Thank you!

[@adrianteixeira3958]

I'm an obliger and right now I'm deep into obliger-rebellion. I spent all day trying to figure out what's wrong with me, to the point I considered I'm faking my depressive feelings to have an excuse to be lazy. Thank you for helping me to understand myself better.

[@omargp777]

Very interesting. I can see family members clearly described in each personality tendency. I feel like cultural and experiences in my family upbringing and school made me become an obliger. But it feels awful sometimes to strive to meet everybody's expectations when failing to meet own personal goals you want so hard. You feel bad about that being a little perfectionist and not fulfilling your own stuff, and when you rebel a little bit about too much imposed on us, there is sense of guilt that comes about having failed to others. It's not a nice thing to have a tendency to be like people-pleasing, even when you know others may be wrong. We need to learn to set boundaries, obligers.

[@NganNguyen-pz8jn]

Thank you so much!

[@abanoubnasr1585]

Upholder as I expected :D I guessed it before the quiz and it was right

[@victoroluwamayowaoyebode4655]

Awesome video 😁💪 watched this few months ago never took the test and was stuck with questions of which tendency best describes me. Today I felt the need to watch again and check my self Finally took the test and it turns out am a 'Questioner' 😅 Following this channel for over a year now and I take it that you are also a Questioner too. Thanks for this Video 😘🙂🤗
