Thanks for watching! I am (and was as soon as I heard the recording) aware of the audio issues. In this case, the Audio Rec Level on my Sony camera wasn't set to an ideal level for my Rode mic. And, yeah, I was lazy and didn't record a sample, take the card out, and check it in computer before starting the real recording that day. I guess I could have done it all over again once I heard it, but I didn't know at the time this video would do so well! I have plenty of videos with like 40 views, so perhaps my decision is understandable there. Also, as one might guess by the fact that I just put in this furniture, the room was still somewhat empty but I don't think that made much difference. Even now, I record in a medium sized home office, with decent equipment, a mic boomed in as close as possible out of frame (or even in frame), have added carpet, curtains, and some sound panels, and throw bedding on the other side of the room when I record, too. I've exchanged audio samples with Ali Abdaal's lead editor and equipment expert (who advised me on most my equipment). And my audio is still not great! Though better than this Ikea video, which again I had a setting set wrong. So. If anyone has advice beyond these things, please, I'm all ears! But if you're just saying "your audio is bad"... I know dude, I know.

Really great tips and tricks that are very helpful in making these difficult and time consuming decisions. Unfortunately I did miss some things that were said. In part it was the echo- but for me it was more speech which at times was fast with a fading volume. i.e ~minute 8.50. Replayed several times and could not be understood. I am mentioning this, not to criticize, but so you are aware and can be improve because your video and information is very good. Also it would be helpful to see more demonstration of the thing which you are describing. Thank you for this and I look forward to other videos.

I love your characterization of the FC system as “mature.” That is the perfect description, as it’s so time-tested. Also, there are spiral bound and now even traveler’s notebook binding options on the Franklin Planner website - not just ringbound.

Great video! I’m considering getting back into the FC method. I used it in the late 80s/early 90s when I discovered it through one of their time management books called First Things First. btw, Covey is pronounced KUH-vee. 😉

The Franklin Covey 'system' isn't really a system but a bastardized combination of the FranklinQuest system (stolen from Charles Hobbs' 'Time Power') with its daily A-B-C prioritization and the Covey '7 Habits' weekly planning system from when the two companies merged (word is that Covey's business didn't run too great). They shoehorned some elements of Covey's system into the Franklin Planner (that is itself a copy of the Day-Planner), making up for a really weird combination.

So what I don’t get is how tasks that must be done (housework, meal planning, lesson planning, etc) are related to my values?? I mean, values or not, some things have to get done to stay afloat or to not lose one’s job,mor to not end up as a train wreck, right?
@kait-hanrahan
@kait-hanrahan 2 ай бұрын
Sure! So a lot of those sound like the underlying value is providing for your family. You might go to a job you enjoy because Career is a value. Or a job you don't enjoy for Responsibility, or Financial Stability. The meal planning could be for Health/Nutrition or for Parenting/Family. Personally, I always do the bare minimum housework because providing a safe home for my children is a top ranked Value for me (Family). And then I do more and try to make our home pretty because having a home I'm proud of is also a value for me, just a lower ranked one (Beauty). Here's more info on values: blog.franklinplanner.com/ben-franklins-planning-method/ You could connect this also to the Hierarchy of Needs -- you know, first we have to make sure we have basic needs like food and shelter, then things like relationships, and at the top is meaning and creativity. That hierarchy lines up pretty well with how I order my Values. I mention the Hierarchy of Needs in my next video (will be up Friday) which is about switching back and forth between survival mode and growth mode. Hope to see you there :)

I know... I've really struggled with audio quality since moving into my home office. This video I tried some different settings and it was actually much worse. But, what can ya do? I didn't realize until it was too late. Believe it or not, I do actually have a high quality mic on a boom stand and have consulted with Ali Abdaal's editor on a few occasions to troubleshoot why it's still so bad. I've tried different mic set ups. Only thing left to try is to spray foam the whole office -- but it's a rental haha

Covey is pronounced KUH-vey. 🙂 There’s also another step before identifying values and goals - developing your life mission statement. The values and goals flow from that. Franklin has a mission statement builder on their websites and in their Starter Kit inserts, and in their books.

Re. SMART goals: the R stands for Relevant, not Realistic. I’m not quite sure how “Realistic” crept in; it is a synonym for Achievable, so would be redundant.

I’ve taken many trainings at work and elsewhere that use SMART goals, and there really is no one single definition of the acronym. I’ve noticed variation in what each letter stands for, depending on who’s doing the training. But the overall meaning is generally the same.

I know! I've bough so much audio gear trying to fix this. Even spent some time on the phone with an expert. My newer videos I brought the boom in frame with the mic an inch from my mouth; that's a little better. I think I'll have to sound insulate the office walls. But that project needs buy-in from my other half :)

For the going to bed early part: chronotype plays a big role if people want to/can get up early in the morning. Also, where people are in a timezone, the practicality is affected. 6am in Switzerland is much easier than here in Belgium, closer to the other edge of the European timezone. Simply, the whole daily sun cycle is shifted 1-1.5h later during the day. What do you think about these? And great video with good tips, nice b-rolls and text, I liked it! 🙂 For chapter links, add 0:00, so it shows up as chapters in the video, too.
@kait-hanrahan
@kait-hanrahan 4 ай бұрын
Thanks for the chapter tip and complements 💜! I agree, doesn't have to be 6am. I think the important thing is consistency (not military level 100%, but most the time). I meant 6am more like an "If you want to get up early, 6 is still early but more doable to be consistent". There's a lot of hype for 4am and 5am morning routines, and I don't see how someone can do that consistently unless they just never have a late night out. But point is -- I agree 100%: try to be consistent with a time that makes sense for your life. Also southern Europe you could add to your examples where 6 am doesn't make much sense. Restaurants open for dinner at 8:30 pm in Italy. So assuming your not giving up restaurants, a later wake up time will keep the adjustment the next day more doable. I like Switzerland's 6pm dinner standard better than Italy's 😂

Well I guess they must work from someone since they keep making them 😊 They really don't work for me (I normally have 1 taller boot in the winter, then a bunch of small flats in the summer). We have a shoe tray that slides under other entry furniture. When I moved to Italy 14 years ago, these things were everywhere and the smell was what really turned me off from them 😂 But totally agree -- if planned out they can work! But if purchased spontaneously, I think it is likely to be a regretted purchase (hence making the list). I'm glad they work for you! 💜
