Great content... You really have changed my thinking... Thank you.

[@DAV_B]

To be productive, you need to work smarter, not harder. Managing your 168 (the number of hours you have in a week) can be difficult. Managing multiple 168s can be maddening. For people who handle multiple people and responsibilities, it can all get overwhelming. If you're busy in all facets of your life, the tendency is to take it all on...at the same time. And as long as you're productive and earning money, don't forget to invest because investing creates a safe haven for the future.

[@Ame_rodri]

Yes, I agree with you on that, because after being productive you definitely get funds from it and to keep the funds flowing without stress, when you have to focus more on investing because it is the key to living better.

[@kk_G2]

@@Ame_rodri who do you invest with?

[@Bella.Grasso]

@@kk_G2 Mr. Sherman Williams Trading is the best i know in trading.

[@Pierre-mz9gk]

​@@Bella.Grasso Oh wow, coming across the comments after watching this video makes me very happy. I almost thought myself, my family and relatives had only ever traded with Sherman Williams Trading once. This man is really dominating the shopping area. He is the best I have ever met in the business.

[@J_parker]

Can i reach out to him on instagram??

[@kimward5862]

My most productive work life hack is to work early in the morning, at my office (not home), before checking any email, voicemail, text, chat. I’m usually the first one there and I can really buckle down in the quiet to get a lot done. Btw, I’m an introvert 😊

[@xin8318]

Dear Kim - there is no shame in being an introvert- many people waste too many of those seconds that Jim referred to earlier in the video, trying to remain relevant to other people. That consumes a huge amount of brain energy.

[@malikhanah]

Totally agree with you

[@EM-yx5em]

Same here. I don't care what people say. I know myself well. I'm a healthy and smart, loving and caring person. I enjoy being with a few people. True and honest

[@mouadelmerchichi1107]

I'm software engineer and I work remotely. What helps me be productive throughout the day is that I get to love the tasks I'm asked to do, like they are some sort of entertainement for me. That helps me loose stress. Today, I have a task to upgrade an application server in production for a client. I find it joyful just by starting to gather the requirements in order to do the migration. Like in a video game for example, where you have to search for items or ingredients or complete a quest in order to be able to have the power needed to win a challenge and move forward.

[@macthemessenger]

My issue is consistency. I would study for 3 hours straight on Monday and feel good about it but then it’s hard to maintain that the rest of the week. I love the mental break idea because I do hit a wall.

[@areyoufreeenough1372]

Mental breaks are so important. You can do this I know you can

[@arlenemarr4773]

Early morning! Feels like, "I got this"

[@purposefulgrowth6601]

Tauheedah here - Wow! That was so good Jim, Thank you so much! What moves the needle for me, my productively hack: Getting up super early 4am, because I feel more prepared and I can do more in a day. Going to bed 2-3hrs before deep sleep so I can unwind and relax and write in my journal and plan for the next day. I love deep work sessions and snack breaks Love working when its bright light, sun-shinning outside-not always possible but I push through Getting 8hours of sleep Seeing and feeling progress for example when working out when I feel the pain in my abs,things that bother me don't bother me as much anymore-Seeing Growth And a winning day is when: I study my bible,workout and deep work session in a day. When I get a lot done, I am super pumped, my superpower! Thank you in advance for reading my long message.

[@rayleneberryman7673]

One hack for me, if I'm watching KZbin to learn, is to go full screen so I don't get distracted by comments, or other things I could watch down the righthand side of the screen.

[@MikeScott55]

My worst habit is that I’m watching this in my home office while working at home…😂 My best habit though is that I recently learned how to set my iPhone so that I can’t get notifications and can’t use apps for the first 3 hours of my day so that I can only focus on the tasks in front of me (other than a few exceptions like texts from my wife or emergency phone calls). It actually helps a great deal with my focus (as that and my memory are the qualities where I need the most work).

[@sarahdorr6857]

What keeps me going is truly hydration. As simple as it sounds, it keeps me going the most while working from home. It keeps me from mindlessly eating. I have to take brain breaks to refill. It’s good for digestion since I sit most of the day, and obviously it keeps me hydrated. I try to alternate from hot and cold beverages to keep it interesting.

[@bapsymcdowall9574]

Well, this particular video helps those who have issues with thier studies, also for young ones who are lazily killing thier time doing nothing..If they take interest n determination can succeed...Miracles always happen..God is great...

[@Childfree_Jerra]

Great video! Thanks for sharing these tips! Personally, I love listening to jazz and lighting a lavender candle while working.

[@PhuPhillipTrinh]

just killing it Jim! my productivity hack is probably using VR headsets like the quest 2 and using their "Virtual offices" to work with other people while streaming your laptop screen into the headset. This app called Immersed has an environment where the music goes with the beats. Plus there is a community that does timed poromodos together when we are all in the Discord server. Work is not as lonely no more that's for sure!

[@denelynloterte3446]

If I want to focus on my work, I play classical music. It helps me stay on the task at hand and I found myself finishing the task a lot faster :)

[@dinahmiteideas]

Great video I watched this multiple times and kept learning something new 😊 What moves the needle for me is my timer on my phone. So if I really need to focus on a task or project to achieve at least my mini goal of it, I put an hour on my timer of my phone display it next to my pc/monitor to keep me focus cause I see the clock ticking down tells me finish whatever you have left then stop for the day or if I feel I can push 1 more hour then I will. I just need to commit doing this daily but at least it’s pushing me to move forward vs procrastinating and making excuses. Or like you said change my environment to get something done. So I book a private room at a library for blocks of time and it’s free!

[@alinecosta2444]

My favorite productivity hack is doing the most important task of my day in the begging, so I can feel better about myself and my goals. Nice video, Jim. Hi from Brazil. 👋

I love your videos. They make me feel motivated and keep finding the way to improve my study skills ❤

[@broy1927]

Great advice!! Thanks a lot!

[@theyluv_ad]

My hack I suppose is using a list (preferably written) but I never really paid attention I just know at some point during the day or week it will click and then make a list and then lock in. I procrastinate and then get down on myself because like you said I am lacking awareness in this by not being organized. Thank you! Needed clarity and will try to add to my life.

[@celestedejesus]

Thank you for all this lesson (and others)! I find your contents very helpful, sort of my super power source these days. Your thoughts are thought-provoking, helps me to internalize and work on improving specific aspects of my habits, life. My productivity hack is focus music, yes, without lyrics when I'm on work mode. For exercise/training, I'm on highly charged rock music, I do feel the surge of energy : ) it's funny that you mentioned this. Music is a superpower for me.

I feel more productive when I wake up early. But recently I’ve been failing to do that, and staying late at nights upsets me. Your video has reminded me that I really need a structure and organization of my life with routine, schedule and time management. So I’m going to develop my super power of an early bird and change my routine 😅

[@mywifebuys4434]

[@DhrumitMehta]

As a KZbinr and filmmaker, I have to write a lot of scripts and original content. Sometimes, I feel like my work bench isn't stimulating my creativity, and so I go to my sister's room to work. There's just something about that environment - the yellow lighting and cozy feel - that gets me flowing. So that's kinda my hack

[@JC-bz9pf]

I change my phone settings to black and white during the day. It helps me stay off my phone. I also use a standing desk and walking pad for a portion of the work day. And walking helps me focus more.

[@dylan4331]

My best focus way is after waking up go out food store to study , this will let me not fall into sleep again and have quite focus in the morning

[@YTFPV]

First thing i do is try not to not rush and clean my work station at home and take time to organize. A good example last night really bad night of sleep and today i am off track but i did took a nap watch your video and calm myself i miss part of day but rest of the week will be better . 😀

[@marc-alainmuteba1447]

I work from home and I turn off my phone from the time I wake up to my lunch break. I leave it in another room. This has been very helpful for me

[@JeremySChin]

Great and enlightening tips. My weakness is time and organizing my files.😅

[@julianhindson1241]

Most productive time is my willpower reserves are still intact, prior to undertaking any other tasks. Andrew Huberman makes an interesting point around peak work time being 4hrs after waking. Also, putting on a familiar EDM album with a driving rhythm helps the brain get into flow without having to reprocess/parse the music again. Deadmaus or Leftfield work well for me.

[@zennologyofeverything7265]

There is no such thing as a willpower reserve. That research has been debunked

[@melange78]

Breathing and visual focusing techniques are my most optimal brainstate focusing routines. Doing it properly is on par with illegal stimulants but without the side effects. And you don't need to practice it a lot to implement it, you just need a few minutes the first time and then it is set.

[@randyg.7940]

I smoke crack for breakfast....there's no substitute.....no seriously, I started doing g breathing exercises about 3 months ago and it's been life changing.

[@frankbarenbach6044]

I switch off my mobile phone and put it in another room at the end of the apartment to minimize distraction because my brain loves to see the mobile phone. And I use earplugs so I can work in silence. I need this zero-distraction environment to get into the focus tunnel.

The tip “REMOTE” works well. Working from home can be challenging, but with the right approach, you can maintain productivity and achieve your goals. Create a dedicated workspace free from distractions, and establish a routine that works for you. Take breaks when needed, and prioritize self-care to maintain your well-being. Use technology to stay connected with colleagues and hold yourself accountable for your tasks. With discipline and focus, you can be productive and successful while working from home.

People who need help being productive working from home are the same people who need help being productive at work. You either lead yourself or are one of those people that needs to be told what to do and when to do it. All these people saying you cannot work the same when working from home are most likely the same people that know they cannot drive themselves and need to be pushed.

For me it is tremendously helptful to consume all content at least at 2x speed. One day an epiphany overcame me and I just started watching at 1.25x, some I could directly watch at 1.5 or even 1.75x speed. Now after months I am even able to watch some ppl at 3x and it really really helps me as I have been living with depression for a long time and had somehow trouble concentrating my whole life which got even worse over time. And years ago I even wondered why one would even want to consume content at faster speeds tho having shorter gaps between the words really is key for me being able to focus more : D Oh and this combined with audiobooks has really really helped me a lot! I went from not consuming books because I was not able to read them without getting super mega tired while at the same time having all kinds of negative thought-speed-trains rushing trough my head to having listened to so many books in the last two years it is hard to remember them all!! Makes me super grateful! One Love! Always forward, never ever backward!! ☀☀☀ 💚💛❤ 🙏🏿🙏🙏🏼
