It's my 26th birthday, and I'm in a reflective mood. As I pass the halfway point of my 20s (and this podcast), I'm looking back at some of the lessons I've learnt so far and what I hope I learn in the next four years. 

Also, the question people keep asking: will there be a Psychology of your 30s, stay tuned to the end to hear my thoughts!

Want to study smarter, not longer? Today, we're finally breaking down my psychology-backed guide to becoming the academic weapon you always dreamed of being.

I’m sharing the exact study hacks I used to become high school valedictorian, maintain a near-perfect GPA at university, and actually enjoy the process of learning (and the Pomodoro method isn't mentioned once...)

We talk about:
How to make your brain care about what you’re learning
The Note-Taking Manuscript Method
Why personal relevance helps memory
Using novelty to make concepts more memorable
 Finding your peak productivity hours
The effort paradox (why meaning follows effort, not motivation)
How to hack your brain to focus longer and study better 

If you want this academic year to be your best, you're in the right place! Listen now!

385. The best psychology hacks for studying 

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/cdf5afbc-dccc-4bb6-b20e-b3ee00b78a40/transcript

If you’ve ever felt like a delayed reply, a change of tone, or a bit of feedback ruined your whole day, you might have a tendency to take things personally. In this episode, we’re looking at why your brain is wired to do it in the first place, and why it doesn’t automatically mean we’re self-centred and egotistical.

We explore:
•        Why we interpret normal things as an attack
•        The spotlight effect and personalisation
•        The role of the id, ego and superego
•        How to tell when the ego is being helpful or harmful
•        5 tips to stop taking things personally
