I'm a student studying psychology and i need to study a lot so i need to summarize and know the keypoints of the certain subjects. What prompts or anything you use to summarize pdfs?
I was told that if I chewed gum while studying and then chewed the same flavor during an exam, it would help me recall what I’d learned.
Since I was barely passing biochemistry and had just scored a 74% on the previous test, I decided to give it a try.
I chewed mint flavored gum while I was writing and reading my notes for about 2 hours of studying and chewed up 3 pieces of gum. And when I was taking the biochem exam, I was also chewing the same flavored gum. The weirdest thing happened here is I recalled most of what I studied and even got 92% on biochem.
That's when I learned that sensory cues while studying really helps to trigger memories. So the stimulus of chewing gum while reading my notes helped me pass my exam by remembering what I studied.
Honestly, I never thought that just chewing gum would really help in studying. I'm definitely going to keep using this method for this year's exams and see if it holds up across different subjects.
For you to get clients for promotions you need to build trust with an audience and then making it easy for brands to see the value in working with them. Most brands find influencers through DMs, email in bios, creator platforms like Collabstr or Aspire, and referrals from other creators or agencies. They’re looking for people whose audience matches their target customers and who can show real results like engagement, saves, and sales, not just follower counts. As a beginner, the best way to start is to pick a clear niche, post consistently, and treat your profile like a portfolio share brand-style content even before you get paid, add a media kit with your stats and rates, and put a contact email in your bio. Then proactively pitch small businesses you already love: send a short DM or email with 2-3 content ideas tailored to them, offer a gifted collab or discounted first deal, and collect testimonials to build credibility. Over time, the more you post proof of results and stay professional with deadlines and communication, the more brands and repeat clients will come to you.
I used to complain about how brutal college was, until I realized that coursework wasn't the real problem. It is actually my habit of doing every schoolwork and review until the last minute. Most of the students rant about on here doesn't actually come from the difficulty of what they're studying, but from the procrastinating.
You need to stop cram weeks of studying into a single study session. The key point is once you stop procrastinating and actually give yourself time to learn the lessons. In that way college becomes easier for you.
What was the strategy you guys that finally helped you break your own procrastination cycle?

got tired of my micro-managing department lead hovering near my cubicle for 10 minutes every afternoon making passive-aggressive small talk about sprint velocity.
i threw together an ESP32 micro-controller, an ultrasonic distance sensor, and a tiny Twilio SMS script. taped the sensor under my desk partition facing the aisle. when it detects a stationary body standing within 4 feet of my desk for longer than 20 seconds, it sends an automated webhook to my phone that triggers a ringing incoming call screen.
roofers spend thousands on dry text ads that nobody clicks. I took a 4K phone camera, filmed water dripping onto a commercial office ceiling tile during a heavy rainstorm, and cut straight to a roofer torching a TPO membrane seam.
the visual panic of the leaking tile drives a 5x higher click-through rate. sold the roofer a package of 4 raw video hooks for $1,600.
