Daily Check-In - Saturday 17 October
This is your space to practise reflection and planning, two skills that are just as crucial to your results as anything you're learning in Encoding or Retrieval. New here? Use this formula. It's built to take under 2 minutes, so there's no excuse not to do it daily. Day [X] Today: [Win/Draw/Loss + Justification] Tomorrow: [A 1% improvement to make tomorrow slightly better] Already doing Self-Management work? Swap the formula for your own deeper daily reflection (Kolb's) and plan. It's the same underlying process, just with more depth Key rule for "Tomorrow": your 1% improvement must be a change to your system or process rather than just a task on your to-do list. - ✅ System change: "Deleting Instagram from my home screen" → benefits every day after this one, automatically. - ❌ Just a task: "Do a physics past paper" → helps once, then you're back to zero. Remember, always progress over perfection

Incredibly busy day, barely been at home as it turns out. Currently out but not much to reflect on as ive hardly had time for any work besides from an hour I had to do some coaching. Tomorrow just want a big focus on reflection and planning for the week ahead. haven't given myself enough time to maintain the system recently

@Aaraya S I would focus the experiments primarily around how you are studying the content you need to learn. What we have identified is that the manner in which you have been studying previously is not as good as it could be. Your goals are basically to learn things deeply and then to retrieve them to keep them in your memory. those should be your predictions, and your experiments will be answering the question "how can i create a system to allow me to learn something deeply and then keep it in my memory"

@Rezwan Habib The way in which you are approaching this is exactly right. And all of your predictions and experiments are exactly what I would recommend. The only minor thing that I would recommend is turning all of these new things that you are learning into a straight forward step by step checklist to begin to systematise. at the moment a lot of the things you wish to implement are still a little bit isolated from one another so it may feel difficult having a whole bunch of things you want to try and implement without a proper plan for how to do so

@Aaraya S Definitely get this was probably a busier day so there many not have been enough time for a daily checkin, but if things start slipping a little I would advise getting more in depth with the experiment. no biggie though because your experiments have been rly good recently, i get life can just get in the way a bit Would also love to see your first experiment on the study side of things soon. I hope ive answered all of ur questions so its clear what u need to do, if not pls ask for clarification asap as the sooner we get on top of this the easier it will be to fully prep for ur exams

@Rezwan Habib honestly i think ur being a bit harsh calling this a loss. it was always going to be tough to make big progress today, and you got some valuable data from today. You're also still in a good position to have a big win tomorrow

@Aaraya S as in, you mention how you have to take a step back and learn things from previous years (at least that is what i think you mean by basics). Correct me if that interpretation is wrong if that is true then there are two possibilities 1. you have to learn the basics because they may come up in your test 2. they wont come up in the test but you cant learn the more advanced stuff until you cover the easier stuff
🗓️ Weekly plan 11-18 October
A good weekly plan is absolutely critical to ensuring you continue to make solid progress week in, week out. New here? Use this formula. Ask yourself "What would I really like to get done over the next 7 days to make huge progress towards my long term goals" Then split your answer into two groups: General: [Your usual weekly plan — school, work, life] Bloom: [What you'll do this week to improve your study system itself] It's easy to get tunnel-visioned on school work alone as assignments and exams feel urgent, so they eat your whole plan. The "Bloom" column forces you to protect time for upgrading how you work, not just doing more of it. Still feel uncertain? Head to the Daily/Weekly Plans channel and look through some previous plans for inspiration Your ultimate goal is to have some metric to compare against at the end of the week to determine if your week was a success.

- I want to get back to that state of feeling in control and proud of my progress - Step 1: Create a really clear plan of what needs to be done - Step 2: make sure my environment is set up in a way to make it easy - Step 3: Keep the distractions away - also work on my sleep (earlier to bed and with less screentime) - I want to do what must be done to get that 90 WAM this semester - just keep up with the lectures and the priming —> MLE - continue with the two remaining major assignments - I want to get 5 paying members and fill out the first cohort - Develop a plan for how to attract prospects, intrigue them with the offer, and ultimately convert - Begin focusing on volume and speaking to as many people as I can

@Rezwan Habib I completely agree with your assessment about the unsustainable goal. Very happy with you continuing to integrate the traffic light system. this is exactly what you need to do
