how to manage time so well people think you have 30 hours a day

Time-Management System

The presenter shares strategies for making time for studying, exercise, work, and personal life.

Reduce Time-Wasting Habits

Identify distractions, such as scrolling through social media or watching shows while studying. Make them harder to access with app blockers or timers, and simplify your phone’s interface so distracting apps are less tempting.

Anchor Habits to Existing Commitments

Use regular parts of your schedule—such as before or after class or work—as cues for habits. For example, the presenter goes to the gym after class, making the routine more automatic and less dependent on motivation.

Plan Ahead with a Calendar

Schedule goals in advance to see how you’re spending your time and reduce anxiety. The plan doesn’t need to be followed perfectly; review and adjust it as your schedule or priorities change.

Use Study Tools to Save Time

The presenter says Notability can create lecture outlines and use AI to generate questions or flashcards, reducing the time needed for organization and review preparation.
