Thanks :)

Hii Matt, love from india... At 3:55 why so serious ???

Very well put together video. Thank you for posting it as productivity is always something I strive to be better at on a daily/weekly/monthly basis.

I started using this app called Flipd today you should check it out

What a waste of time.. youtuber who beg for money.. because they dont make money..

Can relate

That's me :(

You're not. You're learning..

@@techmalone9326 not if you don't use the tips

Same 😁

😂💖 it works😂

Re-upload in 2x so you can playback in 2x for 4 times the productivity

I love that KZfaq and podcasts allow this! I wish Netflix did too!

Hahahahh

@Samou angeline thx Samou, very useful

Hey Nathan. Late here but am a fan of your videos man I have to say awesome covers.

at least you watch motivational vids

Same here 👍

I recommend downloading "Delayed Gratification" It's an awesome extension that allows you to enter website names you want to block, but rather then block them they just put a wait time on them. So I enter "Reddit.com" and whenever I try to go to the website it takes 30 seconds, so I just quit out and don't go to reddit. Works really well!

Oh my god that was literally my day today

I experience exactly the same... I am getting tired of myself but I have no clue where to start to change this unfortunate habit once and for all...

It’s a long process, but once you master it, there’s nothing that’s gonna stop you from finishing your tasks! 🙌🏼 I myself struggle with it, but I found that managing your time better helps your overall productivity 😁

Try to gradually replace KZfaq with other tasks. They don't have to be menial or a chore, just something that helps to lengthen your attention span. Simply put, KZfaq is the ultimate destroyer of attention span; with its multitudes of tailored (and often curated) content that you can click through. Even something like reading a book helps. Of course - keep time for channels and videos that you truly enjoy to watch, just keep it to a minimum. My habit of endlessly clicking on the next video nearly cost me my future.

Same, KZfaq is such a wormhole for me right now with way too many hours of content watched per week, while project I'm working on is not really moving forward -_-

"Productivity is one of my main goals right now".. It is for pretty much everybody on this planet to some degree champ. Using that word in a sentence doesn't make you any closer than they are

@@Miquelalalaa I've found the reminder to take a break really helps with limiting time spent on KZfaq (can be set up in settings).

Azra golden comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

SAMEEEE!

Thank you!!

impossible

Fuck, that's accurate

The most truthful statement I heard in weeks genuinely

AM Productions it’s easier to consume than create. Haha but I can’t stop!!

That and social media are killing me. Hmm what would it be like if we were in the 90s? Would something else distract us or would we be crazy productive?

wait this is so good

ive been struggling w getting shit done despite screentime trackers, lists, calendars not using your phone until a certain time sounds rlly solid, thanks for this!

I'm gonna try this phone thing, seems promising. This shit takes up too much of my time

Declutter your life i do the same.

Is there an app that does this for you? Or do u literally re download the apps at 1pm?

Thankfully (or not) videogames don't bring me joy anymore

literal

true

Sell the console. It’s pretty easy.

Your profile picture is your face at 3am when you realise you did not do anything

Thanks! I try!

Matt D'Avella Best content out there right know.

That's what productive people do

So true 🙇

For reaaaal

Life Progress - ideas for a better life TV this is so true for me too but sometimes I forget, thank you!

I could use that in minecraft when building or mining

When and how much do you meditate and do you meditate daily? I was really looking into starting this to kinda relax my mind but idk where to start tbh

@@Neengen I started with the app Headspace 2 years ago. It's great but a little pricey. But I think the price is minuscule for the benefits you will receive if you keep consistently practicing each day

@@Micoolaw thank you so much man! I'll look into it :)

Amit Trivedi well somebody looks at the glass half empty

@@Infinite_exhilaration well said

if u want to be productive its the worst thing to watch productivity videos. They give you the feeling u just have done something good, u get dopamine, although u didn't do anything meaningful. At the end u just continue to watch videos instead of doing actually something.

How to start being productive with watching video how to being productive

🤣🤣

"Do not confuse activity with progress." - Capiiital

I've also heard "don't confuse being busy with being productive".

For me it's "Is what i'm doing RIGHT NOW going to bring me closer to my goal(s)?" If not, pivot!

I believe it's Denzel Washington who said 'Don't confuse movement with progress.'

@@Thewhiiiterabbit I believe the last part of your quote was by none other than Ross Geller. PIVOT!

-get Apple products-

Linux is the best OS for productivity You cant game on it , as im a game addict atleast

@@enginsanity2730 You can game with Linux see my channel, and you will know

@@enginsanity2730 Uhh no, Linux is getting much better in terms of gaming (Steam Proton) That's why instead of Linux, you got to use BSD for minimal distractions.

@@zebvelez5973 what is BSD

So true....

Nothing new under the Sun. This is the same crap that the boomers sold in the 80s. "Productivity!" "Goals!" "Positive affirmations!" "Achieve your dreams!" "How you ask?" Just follow/buy my system of Rah! Rah! Rah!.......blah.blah.blah. It is just repackaged for the Millennial Generation. It was nauseating then. It is nauseating now.

No its not true. Being productive and overworking are very distinct things. If you are overloading yourself to the point of burnout you are most probably not being productive. What IS true, is that people need to stop mistaking "productivity" with just "trying to solve all my problems and achieve all my dreams at once". Ppl are addicted, mostly due to how fast information flows now a days, into thinking that they need to get all their desires done asap. They see someone being rich, or working out a lot, or traveling a lot, or studying a lot or opening up a company, and then they set all these goals to themselves all at once, while they arent even disciplined enough to wake up on a schedule or eat healthier. I know this from experience because i used to be like that as well as every other millenial that i know. Now a days i live by the following sentence: "if you dont focus on SOMETHING, you dont master ANYTHING". Its as simple as that. We are so used to be overly informed about everything in the world that we easily forget to actually master something. Example? Just look at how many YT channels you are probably subscribed to. Ever since i changed my mind about what productivity actually means, my life has changed drastically. Now i work 10-12 hours a day (as a development engineer, so no easy "mindless" job, very stressful btw) and when i get home i still study for 3 hours every day. Plus im married. Plus i have 3 hobbies, etc. And am i close to burning out? Far from it...just prioritise and organize. You will be amazed how long 24hrs can be when you are organized and disciplined.

True, and these "productivity systems" are in place just to make ways to not get distracted or procastinate, something that is a bit of epidemic through the day, its boring to work without a goal or a mindset in place, we get easily distracted for other reason, don't over-burn with productivity goals more than you can reach, people need to set realistic goals. Matt made a video where it hints that get focus on work with 15/30 min timer.. and make a break, until you can make a 1 or 2 hours of continuous work and focus. For me, This is something that im work on, I can't stay focus in a task more than 15 min(it depends on the task), and thats is making me nuts. Even with all these systems in place I feel some anxiety that breaks even the Will of doing it. I think this particular subject is far more deeper than putting platforms to organize your produtivity. the mindset to doing is needed to take care first. I think Matt can make a video about "violation of expectations" When doubt is negativetly confirmed ... and how does that affect us.

@@Driftuner That sounds like it could help me a lot. The problem is that I'm the first to not regard a schedule I make for my life. On top of that, I have really bad ADD, so it's really hard to do stuff that I don't like. Got any tips on that? Thanks in advance! :)

Same except: Sees a video on productivity Adds to Watch Later Proceeds to browse reddit for 3 hours

Chris happens a lot to me too hahaha

Okay I thought I was the only one😂😂

Haha seems to be a common thing, happens to me regurlarly. 😄 Exceeept: After the this and 1 more video time pressure forces me to be productive

Your procrastinating productively.

Aren't we all

Bruuhhh

I've found that setting little systems rather than big goals has helped me a lot. Mostly because you can go through a lot of stress and resentment of yourself if you miss your big goals but you can go on and off with systems without feeling bad about it. Breaking everything down into easy steps the night before has been a game-changer for me too. Example: Go meet some friends in Matts comments and see if they might be interested in subscribing :) consistency is key!

Really cool to see you here Thomas. You're one of my favorite channels 👍👍

Thomas Frank so much productivity in one room

Respond to Jason? Yes, respond to Jason.

Top 10 anime crossovers

@Thomas Frank I can confirm there has been no response. I'm still not sure if Matt wants me to wear the snuggie for 30 days or not???

this describe my current state with 100% accuracy

Me: burns out after one hour, proceeds to project self-guilt on myself for the rest of the day. Around 7 p.m. Drink a beer or two, feel shitty in the morning... Etc

Biceps? Yes, biceps

What is this app he is using right there? That to do list?

@@Cebsoe todoist :-)

Oh my God. Same 😂😂

Same

Well thats actually exactly what i did

Lol

Haha

Hahahaaha

I try to watch all KZfaq videos on 2 or 1.5 speed

I hate when someone tells me they worked "60 hours last week" and I know what that looks like haha It's just half work and half lazing around talking about how many hours you are working

BaconMan Yup. True of entrepreneurs and people in jobs. Almost nothing gets done. I’d rather get real work done in bursts and actually enjoy the rest of my time. No more bragging about lack of sleep, etc...

Sometimes those people are salaried and it's not by choice. Maybe that's not who you're talking about but you sound pretty judgy here.

Sarah Anderson Judgy? Maybe read it again, can’t imagine how it could be taken that way. If you are stuck in a salary job where only 5% of the time is actual work, I’d say to maximize that time you are there for yourself - plan your exist strategy, side business ideas, listen to podcasts if you can. At least to do your best to make it not just wasted time for yourself

I fully agree with this. I work days a week at one job (bakery) and 5 days a week at an evening job. Sometimes I’m working 7 days at both jobs and I manage the bakery And act as owner when real owner is away. I am 22. What I’ve found with working this much for 2 years it’s completely failed me. My quality of work isn’t as good as it could be, I don’t sleep, my weight fluctuates, my organization and focus as well as customer service is just fine. Sure I’m hussling, grinding, I just bought three red bulls. I’m making a butt load of money. But I am miserable and trapped for the time being. And the only thing I can do to stop this is break the habit. And watch Matt’s videos lol

Don't think playing more video games will be considered very productive

Good for you man 👍😂

These upvotes seem suspicious

Best of luck mate~~

👊👍

Thank you so much for sharing this, I used to wake up at 5am for a year but thought getting up early made me productive which was pseudo effect

I disagree with the last thing they said. Many people die wishing they had accomplished more, things that may have been accomplished with more productivity

You love the video from pillars of life kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y62nn7SFktzRg2g.html

Alexi B realize that by waking up at 3, they need to go to bed at 7 pm. It literally adds no time to your conscious life.

Maryam Hassan watch thomas frank! he has multiple videos on that issue

You should probably email him because chances are low on him seeing this comment.

Some people are too lazy to google. I say good on him for capturing a market.
