Why Energy Management Is Better Than Time Management

[@danmartell]

Do you manage your time, or your energy? Why?

[@yuchoob]

Do you yell unnecessarily only when you're filming? Why?

[@brandonmiddleton7136]

This comment is really just a testimony for the Energy Management vs. Time Management concept. I recently started a family and a year ago I decided that I was going to start getting up at 3am M-F. I get my best work and workouts done during this time before the rest of the family wakes. 2014 was our best year yet and I'm confident this way of knowing how to manage my energy has had a lot to do with it. Another great share Dan! Thanks for these videos!

[@wanderleymoreno]

I feel it's like something predictable for me. I really needed this advice to organize my weekdays to set goals and improve my wished skills.Thanks for share knowledge Dan.

[@tengds]

Great video! I love to call it self management more than time management. It's about prioritizing your tasks and not get distracted. I do agree that energy has a lot to do with productivity because if you put the wrong energy into the wrong task, you'll be exhausted. Thanks for the upload!

[@danmartell]

+tengds self management? love that! DM

[@codyhealey3788]

Dan, as a successful millennial entrepreneur with ADHD, you've helped me more than all of the doctors combined. Thanks!

[@danmartell]

Cody, you made my day - thx. DM

[@iloveshinyobjects]

yeah it's a lot more practical.

[@corysivell5520]

Love it Dan. Just wrote some notes from this video & started implementing this. I just wanted to let you know over the last month, I think I double my productivity. Literally feels like I am always in momentum rather than in constraint. Thanks for sharing your advice here :)

[@istjmoneymaker]

Interesting idea. Managerial type people often forget to calculate not only physical and time costs, but also the physical or mental energy costs. I'm definitely heavily focused on the efficient use of my physical or mental energy vs just time efficiency, though both concepts are important.

[@indigotime5430]

This was really helpful on a "root cause" type level. Thank you for this! It seems basic at first but all of these tips matter and the more you do them the more your life improves over-all.

[@danmartell]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sarakim8250]

This is a new concept for me. But I was very much intrigued. Thanks for sharing! I will definitely put it into practice

[@homemakersheart3614]

This was hugely helpful. I've tried to go get groceries, errands and make the menu & list all in the same day. AHH!! My poor brain is so fatigued by the time I get to the grocery I come home with the most interesting things. Thanks

[@danmartell]

glad it was helpful!

Early workout is the best way to get energized, eating lean is a great way to avoid sugar crash during the afternoon ! I can't agree more that the roadblocks need to be resolved in the morning so that if an unforeseen task/risk or whatever comes up we still have 24 hours to react ( reminds me daily standups in scrum ). Awesome video Dan Cheers from Montreal.

[@danmartell]

+bassem hamdi yep, I use scrum/agile techniques in my personal life (and to run my overall business). Most successful entrepreneurs have shitty relationships because they don't apply the same principles there.

[@HelenH248]

Just watched this video and wanted say thanks! I feel like this has been the way I've been moving lately, but you did a great job of explaining it in a way that makes clear sense. Thanks again!

[@DavidKosmayer]

Thanks for sharing with us all Dan.

[@001vgupta]

Good to hear you, your good habits, Sir. Good wishes.

[@jamieslate]

Your energy is contagious

[@danmartell]

:)

[@sinuso2939]

Cool video Dan!

[@RaymonvanderVelde]

Very true Dan! I would also add how to change your routine to suit this approach. And for me this is all about slowly adding good things to your routine making sure they become a habit and then move on to the next change. Trying to change all at once just gives me a lot of excuses not to change... Hope that make sense... Anyway thanks Dan!

[@N2ITIVSOLUTIONS]

great video Dan. Very much agree! Have a great day my man

[@karsh24]

This video is amazing!!!

[@iloveshinyobjects]

Good stuff; thank you Dan!

[@theaminahmed]

Really good start *****! Lighting and sound were perfect. And the background was not distracting at all. For one of you next videos, can you talk about how you balance work and family life? i.e. do you work weekends? do you work evenings? what "lifehacks" do you use to get more done with less involvement?

[@NachosBracko]

Great stuff ..........keep em coming TY

[@darbsllim]

How long did it take you to shift from late night owl to this structured schedule with the morning routine?

[@ChrisSpurvey]

Great job Dan.

[@nathangilmore9022]

Thanks for doing this Dan! Great points.

[@paulgymtrainer1329]

Love it.

[@AmeerRosic1]

[@ginaventura865]

Thank you Amazing

[@eloisar.s.3326]

Hey, this was all I needed to hear! Thanks!

[@danmartell]

Glad I could help!

[@ahmedfallah]

very nice.. thanks for sharing with us

[@shannasansom]

This is wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I'm a work-at-home-homeschooling-mom of 3 under 6yo and I can definitely benefit from this concept. Are you married? I didn't hear anything about your wife in the daily agenda.

[@AlaaHassan]

I need to focus on sleeping early. I wake up early and sleeping late isn't helping. Great tips.

[@danmartell]

+Alaa Hassan sleep is everything. DM

[@BenHayak4]

try headspace for sleep or ASMR

[@sarahstanleyinspired]

Hanging out on social media can be a huge waste of energy! Do you schedule social media time?

[@YiWang1]

awesome

[@racheltoffeepudding7732]

Thank you for reinforing about the positive effects of excercise... And great advise about matching time to energy levels. I'm gonna start practicing those from tomorrow. I'm hopeful my life is about to change even more for better.😊💪I can do this

[@danmartell]

+Racquelle Aubrey it will ... glad you enjoyed! DM

[@Pete_YT]

Great advice Dan, thanks for sharing. Do you do much across timezones and do you find that damages your routine? I'm in Europe and find early meetings with APAC and late meetings with North America the biggest challenge..

[@GenevieveMaclean]

*****, thanks for the video! i have adhd and its been a really tough to balance my new startup, life at home and my beautiful daughter. thanks :)

[@danmartell]

Genevieve Maclean glad I could help. DM

[@chinarut]

Nice to meet an fellow energy management champion! U must be an Eben Pagan and Power of Full Engagement fan :-)

[@darbsllim]

Thanks to Eban Pagan I don't do my own laundry or mow my lawn heh

[@chinarut]

Brad Mills if it maximizes your energy, more power to you! ;-)

[@speaking8206]

Chinarut Ruangchotvit Hey man, I wanted to buy that book Power of Full Engagement but I'm not sure. Does the book provide practical methods of how to manage your energy?

[@chinarut]

Speaking I found Eben's Wake Up Productive far more practical. Power of Full Engagement provides context - Eben makes reference to it quite a bit if I remember correctly.

[@speaking8206]

Chinarut Ruangchotvit Who is this Eben guy? Can't find anything about him?

[@sherri1828]

LOVE this! Thank you for sharing! When you plan your day during the morning, is there a tool you use to plan? (a planner you like, app, just on paper, etc...) This was very helpful!

[@jooji1979]

Nice

[@heliomorph]

Hello Dan Martell, I have adhd, and I would also like to have an effective morning routine. Do you meditate after working out? Thanks

[@danmartell]

Paola, I cover that + other questions in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqOoqIKDm8Senrs DM

[@Larrythebassman]

[@danmartell]

[@91rvca19]

Great video. Positive feedback :)

[@bhaskarsharma991]

The first thirty seconds..We are on the same page. I believe that the world is more confused and trying to make us confused too...

[@DreadKnight666]

Great video, I agree :-)
