    Step 1: Take responsibility with your time, you have time for everything
    Step 2: When you are young say yes to most things. When you are older use the principle of hell yeah or no
    Step 3: Set your daily highlight
    Step 4: Todolist, write it down
    Step 5: Time blocking, we put a block whenever we tried to do anything
    Step 6: Parkinson's law to improve our productivity
    Step 7: Protected time for yourself to do things you like and relax and use your creativity
    Step 8: Delegation considered your time value, delegate thing you don like like cleaning
    Step 9: Automated schedulinga not wasted your and their time
    Step 10: the choice to be satisfy, manage your happiness after a day

    Oh my god, I am so happy I found someone who also delegates morning to themselves! I am a working from home and I can basically work at any time I choose, but I really really like having several hours just for myself in the morning, play a game, meditate, exercise etc. I thought it might be weird because everyone usually goes to work early in the morning and has time for themselves in the evening, but I had it backwards. I'd rather have morning off and then work until late and read a book before bed and sleep. Thank you, I don't feel like I am a weird one and that its actually normal to do and depends on preferences!

    Ali - you brought great points - I would add 1 more for those who always feel that something is not done or it's not enough.
    Praise yourself for the little things you accomplish. I started a spreadsheet, for example, where when I accomplish something, I clearly see that, and I am genuinely happy that I accomplished it - even as simple tasks as paying bills, ordering something, etc. Simply coloring the background in Green and putting "YES" as done - feels really good. Prior to that, I was only thinking about what I have not done, being unhappy about that, but now I feel that there are many things I have actually done, which otherwise would go unnoticed if I haven't pointed them out to myself. I hope that makes sense.

    Absolutely love the way you described how we own our time and if something we aren't able to do is mostly because we aren't priotising it enough.
    But Calendly is exactly the opposite of controlling your own time, its like giving away the control of your free time to others. Not sure I like the idea of letting people decide how they dictate my free time.

    Thank you, Ali. What an inspiring and informative video. As I'm a full-time nightshift worker, I do indeed find that I struggle with my time management and productivity. As I'm a mature individual, I often find myself procrastinating on my days off as I feel tired and unable to concentrate on undertaking and focusing on the Open University courses I've enrolled in. Also, as I do adore running, I'm in training for an ultramarathon next June. Anyway, I will definitely commit to completing one task per day. Thanks again, Ali.

      I'm also a nightshift worker and find myself procrastinating on days-off. So in order to get up early on time, I try to add something exciting or supper productive for that day that I know if I do it I'd feel so incredible about myself. Yes sometimes I don't always get to it first but it does help me wake up on time just by thinking about it!

    Ali, could you please make a video about how to stop being guilty about yourself after being so unproductive? Like i would tend to stay in bed much longer if I didn't get up on time, or I would blame myself for wasting sm time yesterday and get sucked into that feelings.

      @leeleo9615 Před 3 lety +7

      I'm also someone who got sucked into such feelings very frequently. About 5 years ago I realized that problem and I've been learning to live with it since then. From what I've learned so far, I would say the best way is pretty simple, which is to change your way of thinking. Like I would feel the same way as you do but now I would tell myself, be more tolerant with yourself and it's unnecessary to feel guilty for being not productive as it does nothing good to me. Whatever you do at the present moment is what you most wanted to do so just take your time and enjoy it. If you wish to stay in bed for a bit longer then just enjoy your time on the bed, if you feel like playing games for a few hours then just sink yourself into it and not think about anything else. You literally have to keep reminding yourself of that so that you can actually enjoy the process of doing something. My understanding of productive has also changed. In the past I would thought completing many stuff in a day is myself being productive. But overtime I would unfortunately found myself doing them just to tick them off my todo list and not enjoying the process. Not to mention I ignore the fact that many of those stuff are not what I want to do at all. I added more to my todo list just to do more. That's a toxic cycle. So listen to yourself, find what you really want to do for everyday, finish that stuff with all your focus and energy, and be satisfied with the day. Let the rest natural fit in. Hope this can help you bro.

    I started using a To-Do list some time ago and it gives me a sense of urgency to check stuff off, so its definitely effective lol. Also, It's important to apply the Eisenhower Matrix when creating a To-Do list in order to distinguish what's urgent but not important vs. what is not urgent but is important to reach our life goals.

    Hello, Ali
    Firstly, I'd like to congratulate you on the great quality of your videos. They're absolutely fantastic. I love watching them because we have the same interests such as technology, productivity, finances, and everyday life. You are the one who inspired me to start my website and get interested in starting a CZcams later on this year. Possibly, this summer.
    I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know what calendar app are you using since I really liked the screen-recording shot you showed making your plan. I really liked the feature of drawing a box and it simultaneously adds time. It amazed me.
    Thank you in advance,

    These are great tips for a very specific audience. Most of us don't own our own business or can afford to set our own deadlines and forgive ourselves if we don't complete our to-do list for the day. I can't even imagine scheduling protected time, much less 4 hours of it. Honestly, I don't even have time to take a shower sometimes! But congratulations on all of your success. I definitely wish I could work for myself and be the boss of my time. One thing though. I didn't like your mention of paying freelances from countries where they don't have any other option but to accept $7/h for something that would be paid more in the states or in Europe. I know it's not your job to change the world but it does more harm than good when you recommend others to do the same.

    The 'dissatisfaction at the end of the day' is so relatable !! One thing I have found really helpful is : before going to bed, I write (type) down all the things I did that day. It not only gives me satisfaction but at times when the list is too short, it pushes me to lengthen the list the next day. "Good stuff" Ali !

    I have been dedicating time before I start to do something (like homework/work) to write down what I need to get done. I make a list, and then rearrange it from most important to least. And then I rearrange again for time sensitivity. Doing this has made me more organized of my time and saved me a LOT of time

    @gatheringgrit Před 2 lety +6

    The choice to be satisfied is probably the hardest one in my opinion. When you start becoming more productive, it becomes kind of addicting lol. You start to have bigger and bigger goals for each day, start to optimize every bit of time so you can try to do more but, its never enough! You feel like you can always optimize something in your day and do better. This sometimes drives me crazy... So even being productive as opposed to being lazy and not doing anything, has its downsides. I would still rather be on the productive spectrum. But yeah, if you learn to be satisfied with the work you did, even though it wasn't everything you planned to do - you won at life!
