How I Manage My Time - The System That Changed My Life

This is one of the best videos you've ever done! As a therapist, I often see people who have read a ton of self development books around productivity and have become burnt out because they are managing their time not their energy, and aren't living with intention and pursuing things they authentically value. I love how this video touches on all of this, but most importantly on managing our energy in a very practical way💡👏🏻

[@fouziatahir2433]

As the ra....

[@rachelhobbs6189]

I agree! This was the more comprehensive version of what I realized I had already started doing after consistently going to therapy 😅

[@RosaDaniello]

I like this approach of not being "efficient" with absolutely everything about your life. Life is meant to be lived at normal or even slower speed sometimes. Taking notes on the things you want to do is also a way to look back and see what sparked your interest in the past vs present. The reason why I like this concept is that it takes out the stress of taking yourself too seriously and feeling like if you say something you must do it because you are holding yourself accountable (for some unknown reason). Yes, I might really want to learn how to sing and it's something that would really make me happy, but not being able to execute it right away is not a source of depression and frustration. Thank you for this video Ali! I'm loving seeing the process of your book coming together :) PS: loved the money terminology

[@khalilahd.]

Managing your energy and I also use notion to figure out my schedule. It’s helped so much 💜 thanks for this Ali! Also I’m learning Japanese now too and it’s cool to see we have a common interest ☺️

頑張って！君なら出来る！📣

[@WicketersCricket]

Thanks Ali!! You have helped me so much this year from productivity to starting a KZbin channel. I am very grateful!

[@maureenbmcclurg]

I created a "view" of my projects in Notion based on this method and I am SO inspired. This is exactly what I was searching for and you gave me the insight to give me the bird's eye view that I was needing. As someone with A LOT of information being used daily, I really appreciate this method/view. I see it being very fluid as a lot of projects are short lived, but that's exactly the point. Thank you!

[@paracoax]

This video waa the best type of rollercoaster. As someone who feels like they've used every productivoty app under the sun I'd get frustrated with being burnt out but never monitor my energy...just the tasks i wanted to do. I feel inspired and educated. Thank you

[@shinewithinthedark]

As someone who also feels scattered about because I have SO MANY things I want to do/learn, this was so helpful. Going to sit down and journal with this video again. Thank you.

[@juandigarban2251]

BRO ALI YOU'VE CHANGED MY LIFEEEEEEE. Like actually I'm a better person because I see your videos and implement those tips and advice into my life. BRO I THANK GOD SO MUCH FOR YOU HAVING THIS INFLUENCE ON KZbin.

[@sciencetoday3629]

Thanks from the bottom from my heart , you literally changed the way I think

[@anasimplesolutions]

As someone who struggles with energy, between motherhood, entrepreneurship and just doing all the things, this speaks to my soul! I could talk about productivity all day... and then be unproductive :D

[@user-dw9oc2qd1w]

[@NathalieLazo]

LOVE THIS!! 💪🏼💪🏼❤️ What helps me with getting things done a lot faster is simply focusing on the project at hand, one task at a time, and eliminating distractions as much as possible 👌🏼

[@DannyHatcherTech]

Things that came to mind. Periodization from S&C research. Aim to functional overreach. Working memory chunk comment was an interesting coincidence but correlational at best. SMART goals are contextual and the framework is outdated, open goals I think would suit this context better. Recognition of energy expenditure - interoceptive awareness

[@arnavporwal7377]

ali man ur so helpful i love watching ur videos. my whole friends circle love you and is very grateful. also you’ve kinda changed my life so muah

[@awababdulkarim1579]

Just realise how lucky you are for knowing this great person like Ali to fill your self-growth, Astonishing!!

[@jeanettawalstrumtk2412]

I appreciate your approach to teaching. I've been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it's the best time to get started on the market, heard some guy speaking of making over $1.3m from a $300k capital since the pandemic and I'm driven to ask what skillet and strategy can generate such profit

[@jeanettawalstrumtk2412]

@moralesararigualila Hi, would you be so kind as to let us know how it's done and with whom?

[@user-fw9lm8gy3c]

Did someone mention Richard O'Connell? Thought I was the only one working with him xx

[@matthewmcb1089]

@Jeanetta Walstrumtk ignore all the scammers, watch Ali's video about investing that is all you need and will be scam free!

[@ZoeysMusings]

It's like you made this template specifically for me🥺I have a million and one things I want to do but I am but one woman with one life. Btw, the pink shirt looks good on you. Your English teacher is the realest MVP: "The secret to happiness is having someone to love, something to do, and something to look forward to." 🙌🏽🏆Looking forward to watching your Notion Skillshare class. This video is one of your best, Ali 🙂

[@AnuragKmr26]

Today I was in a dark place. Between work and life things are not working out. I had taken up too many projects at the same time and struggled to move forward in any one of them. Need to manage my energies better and that is indeed a better benchmark. This video couldn't have come out at a better time. Kudo to you Ali. And thanks a lot for all your videos and especially this one. 👏

[@GrowWithWill]

Using productivity platforms like Notion can give you that extra boost to get more work done. Applications like this also help you keep track of your work and progress. Great video!

[@JayFiCPA]

Awwww yea man. Switched from time management to energy management and absolute game changer!! I take walks mid day and workout at lunch must at least double my productivity over my peers. However I always crash around dinner 7-8pm lol

[@stassiandreeva8609]

The working memory is actually 7 +/- 2 bits of information. Apart from that, great video ☺️

[@rochelleflores7774]

Why have I just seen this video?!?!?! I’m hooked. Thank you for sharing this, really inspiring.

[@emperorFrost]

Applying kanban and it’s idea of limiting WIP (work in progress) to managing one’s energy/focus/headspace is a pretty cool idea!

[@Mohammed_Saad_T]

Hey Ali, it would be really great and helpful if you make a video how do we use Google Calendar in order to properly manage our time...

Oh good shout!

[@sailanieminen1220]

Lowkey camping on these videos! They are really helpfull, thanks a lot

[@catchjyoti]

Still to start seeing the video but already liking it because of the concept of managing energy. I have long believed this is the most important thing. I can do the same thing in a shorter time and in a better way when I am high on energy.

[@aditya-the918blog]

Apart from the tips on this video, Ali digging that shirt. Love your effort on making others life better

[@MrAconfee]

Great video! Instead of "Completed" I like "ROI Achieved" and in each card I have a checklist of ROI items. That makes it unambiguous when something has gone from active -> passive -> benefit realized in my life. It also helps alert me to things that aren't actually tangibly beneficial--which I classify as anything I'd completely forget about and see no effect of after a year or two. For a trip, an ROI item might just be "did it" since it's inherently memorable, whereas for a skill one ROI item might be "makes day to day work easier and more impactful. Examples..." or "less stressed and sleep better by playing piano after work for 4 weeks"

[@LIGHT-uq8cc]

Amazing, the video I needed I have so many things I want to do but unable to manage all the projects thankyou very much for this

Hi Ali, I was wondering, since no one ever gives actual numbers regarding active recall-- how much time should be in between the active recall sessions? If I can do it badly, the next day? If I can do it well, the next week? I'm not sure how long I should wait. Thanks for your videos!

[@Charon-I]

I bet you never read 100 books in 1 year, I personally read books, it takes me at least a week to understand the book good, you are definitely faking it. And don't say that you topped in Cambridge that's why you can read and understand fast than others, I personally scored AIR 86 in Jee advanced which is 50x tougher than your exams. LIER

Very helpful video Ali. Thanks for the readymade template of Notion. This made starting with notion so easy. Subscribed.

[@sarahlou5201]

I like this idea of managing energy instead of time, we somehow got programed to take on 10 tasks at once which drains out energy and makes us lose time and interest in those projects so we end up procrastinaing and beating ourselves cause we didn't have enough time, but the truth is we simply had too much on our plate which made us feel exhausted and overwhelmed. I also don't like this smart goals idea cause sometimes it doesn't work for everything, sometimes I just want to have a goal that I dont want to burden myself with making it time bound and very specific, the same goes for dividing your goal/task into chunks, by the time I do it, I'm already exhausted and somehow overwhelmed, yes I do plan some steps for it, but if it takes too much planning, it makes me lose interest energy and time and sometimes even not wanting to do it. So yeah I agree with this energy management instead of time management method, investing in your energy is investing in your time.
