Why Time Management Isn't the Problem (Attention and Focus Management)

[@shr7ddha]

i've put this into practice for about 2 months now and it has made THE BIGGEST difference ever, came back here to tell you that i'm insanely grateful for your channel

[@JustinSung]

Awesome! Glad it works well for you, and thank you for coming back to share your experience!

[@rudikurniawan99]

would love if you share your story, about what you have done in those 2 months😁

[@marisol033]

Please share which videos helped you improve your learning

[@mrsslamenjamen]

Yay yay yay yay 😍

[@redhidinghood9337]

Been binge-watching your videos since yesterday after discovering you. This channel is like a treasure trove

[@sinceyouwereinyourmamaswom954]

Ironically, I also discovered him two day ago..And indeed, this channel is a hidden gem..🤝

[@yuurishibuya4797]

I discovered this channel today.

[@CMDAwesome]

Doing the same lol

[@guilherme-7262]

same

[@Suesserto_000]

also dont forget to actually study after watching tips. I have to remind myself alot too

[@stelo1558]

i find the biggest takeaway for me from this video is just to go about the day intentionally rather than following an arbitrary rigid schedule. thank you!

[@devashreeroy6391]

Notes: Focus and Attention NOT Time Management. Time isn't what we want to manage, we want to manage our attention. The human ability to measure time is inaccurate, when u don't finish a task, it can ruin your whole day, hence why time management is ineffective. Instead of your 30 mins journey to school, say 30 mins of podcast. What you do with ur time is choosen, what u do with your attention is up to you. Ask yourself, where can I direct my attention next? Mobilise the dead space. You get better and better at being more focused. Your objective isn't to fill the time, but to finishing activities.

[@LeeTaeyong-p4b]

Exactly! Except I took that ur supposed to focus on getting better at focusing so u can be more productive overall

[@adonanglon5290]

I have to say, I never thought about how much time ruled over my day. I tried to follow my schedule, but often times had many unfinished tasks throughout the day simply to stay on track with what was planned. This is definitely going to be a new way of thinking about productivity and I am excited to see how this turns out!

[@polobank4409]

The more I watch your videos the more I feel how much meaningful our each activity can get rather than putting hard works into one activity. U make it seem so easy and ofc it's all about getting things done and moving with the flow! Being rigid with a morning to night routine is bs.

[@shobinyad6643]

I am glad that I have discovered your channel. As the conventional Time management that says if I haven't finished certain tasks within certain amount of time, I automatically ended up in the well of demotivation and would eventually question my ability to accomplish certain tasks and further hurting my self esteem. Like this over a long period of time it is easier to kill your life without actually being dead.

[@co9971]

Yes finally someone who gets it. "What you focus on, grows"

[@hbwang6132]

This point of view is terrific. I am struggling with time management. What invariably happens is that my actual activities deviate from my plan. I hope this technique of attention management is helpful. What I should keep in mind is "where is my attention and where should my attention be". I think this would keep me focus on the most important things in my life.

[@aiapplicationswithshailey3600]

I love the river analogy for time. It really brings the concept of time so much clealry

[@livvyy4life]

Dear Dr. Jung, I am a third year medical student in Ireland. Your videos are so helpful with providing insight on how to manage my rotations, research and studying for board exams. Thank you!

[@cloudyclo]

Binging since today. Goodness, this is a turning point in my life.

[@micaelagodoygraziano]

Your channel is like my new netflix favorite serie! I keep finding pearls of knowledge and amazing advice in every single video, you are incredible, so so thankfull for your work, I wish I could do your program some day💗

[@suryaprabhatpali3013]

Love the paradigm shift of 'No Time' to 'Too much Dead time'!

[@simonlee3716]

Fantastic to hear your insights J, I'm going to try incorporating this foundation into my days 👍

[@AnhTruong1XA]

Your work here is what I felt missing in the others. I need the fundamentals, the essential reasons to work with. My life didn't start with lots of education that focus on the driving points, but more of results. So I lost my years figuring but still obeying the blindy system. Thank you.

[@rigbymama8436]

Justin, I've watched nearly your entire channel and I think this video is among the best. I wished I've seen it 4 years earlier.

[@havardmoenovervik1224]

This made so much sense to me. I will be more intentional about my focus from now on.

[@nevaehjol9319]

I feel like you can read my mind, especially when you were dissecting how I am always about my days.

[@vmx200]

This is one of yhe best videos on getting more done in your day. Attention Management 🎉

[@ngocoder]

Great video! The river example is really easy to understand. Keep doing great work, Justin

[@joannetiu471]

I love this style of video and the content is gold. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@nadie-qm8rq]

Wow everything in your videos make so much sense, more like implementing a new brand technique, I feel like you explain why things are better that way. I'm glad I found you, I think this allow much more flexibility which is always really important, because every day will be different and managing to do certain things at certain times turns out to be impossible

[@timharry5168]

I like your videos dog very honest and not misleading

[@bishnietech]

it's something similar to playing online games , most begginers really just be having a lot of dead time and that's leads to them getting killled. whille more advanced players will be always having their mind constantly thinking while they are playing the game.

[@74Bagas]

man, now i know, why "time management" doesn't work for me. this is more make sense to me.

[@someone-kw3ou]

this is one of your best videos

[@bgbgbg3]

There are some points that I can't comprehend. You said, with managing your focus and attention you can get a lot of things done at work, for example in the elevator or stairwell, walking from and to places. But you mean what kinds of tasks? I can't imagine anything except listening some podcasts or maybe audiobooks etc in these kind of situations

[@MrDjhealth]

What he is referring to is time maximization. Focus on getting the most important tasks DONE and minimizing busy work and activities that doesn't really accomplish anything for the day all while respecting channel capacity .

[@ChrisPereiraLegal]

Your videos are so interesting, I have been watching your videos in order to become more efficient.

[@thefireface2272]

Hi, i kinda like the original approach on all your videos, but unfortunately it’s all theoretical i checked the comments and many students wanted for years an actual application of all these concepts which you never did. You are an MD as you said, take a medical lesson or a medical subject and show us that mindmapping technique, show us the quality of your encoding apply all your teachings.

[@norseca542]

“I wish I’ve learned this before” / before studying Or before some bad thing that can happen about time management or just before. Thumbnail: similar layabout as burnout video or other to start creating similar patterns in your channel and text on thumbnail: Time management vs Attention and focus management. Edit: Nice videos you create in the present, the videos are getting much more knowledge richer.

[@Shivam-oy8rl]

Thanks for this awesome vieeo. Please make a new video on attention management to make the concept more clear.

[@anabeatrizspiecker2751]

I will try this. I am starting med school and the material is starting to make me crazy. Time management hasn't been good. I will try to think what should I do to have progress in some topics. So until later guys.

[@asapb]

every circumstance is different but after procrastinating with my phone for so many weeks and trying out not going on social media until 8pm or other limits my focus has definitely changed, to the point I don't even wanna use social media anymore 😂 like there's no point

[@alexander-ty2qx]

I watched the video couple times to understand your points if i can say your talking about the importance of checking where your focus at while doing tasks cus time management is not enough to for doing daily tasks i can't relay only on one of them I'm just checking if i got what you want to say

[@dianafridabtmfrid923]

Where hv u been my whole life. Im 28 now i should hv learnt abt this long time ago 😭

[@OniSMBZ]

This is an especially fun problem with adhd

[@LowestofheDead]

I came to say this. His advice is basically "Notice when you are not focusing on anything productive, then fix that." ADHD can make you hyper-focus or easily-distracted, so you don't even notice that you're super-hungry or super-tired. If you can't notice your most basic human instincts, how can you notice if you're productive or not? I literally just use an app that chimes every 30min as a reminder in case I'm distracted.

[@juliocesarlb3121]

thank you!😄

[@monicanunezmunoz6605]

Love this. Thank you.

[@DM-ew9sm]

don't you get overvelmed with constant attention calibration during the day? Personally I'm hyper controlling person( in life, at work, everywhere) and because of that i experienced burnout some time ago. Books recommended me to just "feel the moment" , "meditate and think about nothing", etc. Did you experienced such a thing? And do you believe in meditation and benefits of thinking about nothing?

[@beakless_duck]

Meditation isn't really about "thinking about nothing". The statement of "feeling the moment" is a little more accurate. If you want to know his thoughts on meditation, I recommend you watch the Bigger Plate episode on "Focus Training"

You are always talking about mindfullnes meditation, but i didn't finded the right way to do it. Do you have some video/book to recommend on it? Thank you!

[@Chevalier_de_Pas]

Try Insight Timer. It has plenty of guided meditation. I do body scans and breath focused meditations, but there are many kinds of meditation. If you find guided body scans and/or breath meditations, you will learn how to do it without a guide. It's quite easy, focus your attention on your body, and whenever a thought comes, you feel an emotion, or when you realize you are lost in thought, you notice that, accept it and gently turn your attention to the body again (in body scan you scan the body, e.g. you start on your foot and end on your head; in breath meditations u focus on the sensations of breathing). There is no failed or successful sessions - some days our mind is more agitated than others, but the training consists of noticing the distraction, accepting it and then deliberately turning your attention to the body. It doesn't matter how many times, or for how long, you get distracted...

Considering the concept of efficiency, I believe that multitasking is a modern myth. I know that when I am completely focused on one task, I get into a state of Flow and become extremely efficient in what I am doing. A good example is my being a Front End Supervisor at a crazy department store that I work in. One of the managers wanted me to put clothing on hangers while I attempted to take care of customers while ringing up and and doing returns, etc.... I told her that the American Psychological Association says that there is no such thing as multi tasking....it is a modern myth. What ate your thoughts??? The way I see it is, the so called multitasking is actually counter productive and leads one to get ADHD and harms the brain. Any thoughts on this??? Thank you for your help. Miss Monique 🙂🙏💗
