6 Habits of Insanely Productive People

[@TheAFKShow]

1. They start the day right. 2. They control time. 3. They build in buffer time. 4. They deal with procrastination. 5. They get stuff off their plate. 6. They work less to achieve more. It feels like many of the habits here deal with how to use your time much more than how to actually go about and do things. This goes to show how important and valuable time is!

[@KikiAndJeffreyPearl]

The A.F.K Show right on! time is more valuable than money .... this is more important than most know.

[@danadowning2065]

I'm an expert on the first half of nunber 6.

[@fp-ko7vg]

Exactly our life is a matter of time

Poucas são as horas de alta produtividade.

What you do is important, but doing it is even more important

[@KeefeCarpenter]

Batching work and morning routines have been my two biggest productivity hacks. Thanks for the advice! I talk about a lot of this stuff on my channel too

[@DevScript01]

I'm a big believer that the way you start your day, is how you finish it. If you want to be productive the whole day, do productive stuff in the morning.

[@KikiAndJeffreyPearl]

Best Productivity Tips agreed! I have done this through out my career. It is the foundation of success......

[@kofola9145]

In a bed?

[@dhojebonufang]

I have tried to wake up early for 2 years now.....I think Its in my gene

[@hney421]

💯

[@manitiwari9233]

Don't say you believe. That's a psychological fact.

[@dannyboycinco]

So true. I used to batch entire days to try and write music, but I never got anything done, I felt uninspired and my anxiety would creep in and overwhelm me. I started to do a daily 2hr mandatory music making time in the morning and no more, and now my creativity has skyrocketed and I'm always surprised at what I come up with in that short amount of time. It also gets me excited for the next day to do it all over again because I only have 2 hrs to do it!

[@viceflores691]

I’m going thru the same thing right now I will try this and jsut force myself to make something even if it’s bad

[@victoriabarclay3556]

I love hearing how creative people feel about this too. I work mostly with live artists, so it's good to see.

[@dannyboycinco]

@@victoriabarclay3556 I still do it and I'm still getting great results! I've also recently read DEEP WORK by Cal Newport and this also confirms this theory of batching short chunks of time with deep focus

[@suzyanscombe8246]

I've never heard of putting the time on each task or making a not to do list. Thank you so much! Love this channel ❤️

[@MrRockerEdu]

I have been following your videos for over a year now, thank you for all your work pls don't stop doing it !

[@TheArtofImprovement]

I'm not planning on stopping anytime soon!

[@levyschultz6589]

Love this channel. I'm a visual learner, I like to read, and see infographics. It helps connect the dots for me. Your UK accent just makes everything more precise, knowledgeable, and entertaining. Keep up the great work and illustrations.

[@KikiAndJeffreyPearl]

It’s Jeffrey. I call the morning hours, my golden hours. I’ve done this my whole life. I started as a sales guy and climbed to CEO with these strategies. We are now helping others to live their best lives! Live were others vacation.......

[@williamstanley4960]

I build in buffer time between every task I do. And, I do "nothing" proactively during those "margins" -- or, as I call them, layers of Bubble Wrap! (I mean, who doesn't love bubble wrap, right?) The purpose of the buffers are to close up one thing, and give yourself the time to get your mind into the proper place for the next thing. Using them to accomplish anything else destroys them. If you do a task during a buffer, you turn that time from buffer to another task, with no buffer before or after. If I have a bid appointment to give a yardwork quote at 10am, I will leave my house at 9am, giving myself time to get stuck in traffic, or be detoured by an accident. I can get to almost any bid in 15 minutes, but that gives me time to, in a relaxed manner, drive around the neighborhood to get an idea of its economic potential. Then, I will find a place to park and wait. I look around at the sky, the trees, I listen to the sounds of nature. I just maintain a very calm, very focused perspective on the task ahead. This is the purpose of the Bubble Wrap. My theories allow me to build a business in a relaxed atmosphere without any risk at all. Risk Free Stress Free Business!

[@davidschantz5363]

Mindless breaks are very important... Even enjoying your favorite comedy show could work....

[@KikiAndJeffreyPearl]

David Schantz I like it!

[@FindTheSeven]

Indeed. The enjoyment of available energy creates more energy. The key is balance in all things. Work yes, but also play. It's the same with money (stored energy).

Why is sleeping in considered lazy but going to bed early not? What if I go to bed at 2am but I am highly productive between the hours of 8PM and 1AM?

[@Nighthawk5015]

Because your don't fit in with what society expects. Lazy bum at night is for sleeping not doing things. Just kidding if it's not obvious, but yes it's all about societal norms.

[@davidanthony6408]

This has to be the best channel ever.

[@hklinker]

All these things work! For me, the most important ones are around getting off to a good start in the morning (often with exercise). Right now my smartphone is the (self made) obstacle.

[@victoriabarclay3556]

One of my tasks has been to put this channel as a weekly "to-do" for motivation & positivity in tough times. (I'm a business owner whose industry has tanked for now). I was happy to see I do some of these things, but have epic fail in others- so it helps to have your road map. During the pandemic, I've needed more "escape" time than usual, but I know I can pare that back. I started timing my tasks without even knowing that's a thing! Love this episode, really helpful.

[@billyatkinson8920]

It took me 20 minutes to watch this video.

[@TravelWithMe342]

thank you for this video that will really help me to become productive

[@GMack224]

A “Not To Do List” is a innovative concept to combat procrastination . Thanks .

[@saintarj4552]

I'm going to try and follow some successful persons routine for a week and see what I should keep and what I should replace

[@All_things_Aisha]

I really appreciate your videos! Super helpful ❤🙌🏾

[@133air5]

i have done years of self improvement and dont need to watch these videos because im enlightened :-) and yet here i am at the 5th video and i keep on watching as the next ones pop up. Very cool videos and love the visual drawings .

[@nikisiapno3041]

Huh?

[@victoriabarclay3556]

I know, no matter what, we all need refreshers, and to keep learning- no matter our experience.

[@lindaharrison3240]

I like working that music into the presentation :-D

[@DefinedValuesConsultants]

More wisdom in less time! Good luck!!

[@DXIII_365]

This video was exactly what I needed to be successful.

[@shanep.9442]

What if you aren't successful, then what?

[@DXIII_365]

Shane P. This video could teach you a very important life lesson and that’s proper time management.

[@busker153]

Buffer Zones: I use what I have labeled Do Nothing Theory. I purpose to do nothing between everything I do, all day long. These gaps are my Bubble Wrap! It provides all the cushion I need!

[@pegweg47]

At approximately 1:47 they misspell “minute”.

[@TheArtofImprovement]

Well spotted Peggy. Apologies for the typo.

[@philipwebb8297]

Brilliant!

[@mehmetvural3128]

Amazing video

[@steevkelly]

1:42 - got totally distracted by the word "mintue" . spent the rest of the video watching the hand spell out words & not really listening. i need a video on distractions vs. focus.

[@vaguinhogamer450]

Muito bom

[@gazicj]

helpful, ty

[@nouveauprofil]

What does "batch tasks" mean please?

[@rebeccasperring1747]

It means grouping similar tasks together, like if you have 3 phone calls to make, you can group them together and this will take less time because you're not running from say, shopping, a meeting or distracting yourself while trying to do something complex like a report. You can also group other tasks together, like spending 2 hours in town to get all your errands done for the week rather than making several trips. Hope this helps!

[@rahiljogani4825]

Comment for the algorithm

[@bluebluedogbooks]

Interesting.

[@samuelsmithmed214]

Then again Elon Musk and Steve Jobs are known for making unrealistic goal dates for release of products or development. That isn’t “buffer time” or accounting for the unexpected. And before someone replies with “well they set those dates as goals and anticipate they’ll never actually meet that” both Apple and Tesla have almost went bankrupt, cutting product release dates close to deadlines.

[@tempestandacomputer6951]

What point are you trying to make?

[@SKF358]

And, yes, they are INSANE.

[@MonthlyCramps]

Work for yourself. Don't keep a job longer than you absolutely need. Don't go into debt for that bright shiny object, new car, new house, 4 wheelers, snowmobiles, or general credit card debt. If you have to have debt you probably don't need it. This includes overpriced but useless education, high maintenance spouse or fiance, or fancy clothes. If she arrives with debt that means she will always believe in debt and you will be shackled to that job you hate just to make her happy. Better wait until you are settled, in your own business, to get married.

4 hour working week? On what planet

[@maleekgoslin8410]

First comment, first view and first like

[@a27680]

Probably none of these insanely productive people have no family, children or have a good number of domestic helps.

[@avery6536]

Nah just be a furry, they’re all rich, talented and get 48hrs each day
