Ali Abdaal | Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You | Talks at Google

The world's most-followed productivity expert, entrepreneur, creator, and New York Times bestselling author, Ali Abdaal, discusses his book “Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You.” We think that productivity is all about hard work. That the road to success is lined with endless frustration and toil. But what if there’s another way?
In this revolutionary book, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden 'energisers' that underpin enjoyable productivity, the three 'blockers' we must overcome to beat procrastination, and the three 'sustainers' that prevent burnout and help us achieve lasting fulfillment.

if your prejudice tells you he shouldn't be on talks to google, because he is a just a KZbinr in your eyes 👀. so try becoming medical doctor only, but don't forget he is also a KZbinr, and newyork times best selling author. all in one pack.

Woow this is incredible

TLDListen by Claude 2. Actionable nuggets: 1. Use a 5-minute hourglass or timer to force yourself to get started on a task for just 5 minutes to overcome procrastination inertia. 2. Ask yourself "What would this look like if it were fun?" when approaching a tedious task, and find ways to incorporate more play, games, or arbitrary challenges. 3. Track metrics like word counts or time spent as a way to "gamify" tasks and make progress more motivating. 4. Before switching between tasks, take 30 seconds to make a specific plan for what you'll do when you return to help reduce attention residue. 5. Put important tasks, breaks, workouts, etc. in your calendar and treat them as commitments. 6. Adopt a mantra like "This one just needs to be reasonable" to lower the stakes and pressure on yourself. 7. Use techniques like playing music, setting time limits, or co-working to make tasks more enjoyable and energizing. 8. Surround yourself with energizing people and be conscious of your own energy - greet people enthusiastically, give compliments, and speak louder. 9. Do attention training by forcing yourself to read/work for 45 minutes without distractions from your phone. 10. Experiment with different techniques and strategies to find out what works best for your personal productivity needs.

a great video. learnt alot

[@ReikiMasterCarlie]

Wow Ali✨💖the role model of many entrepreneurs👍🏻🌟

[@imrannazir6931]

I used to follow this guy quite regularly but got a growing feeling that productivity videos are common knowledge regurgitated as a money make funnel. It's scamming us. I feel the same about Cal Newport and Simon Sinek.

[@user-kg1od9es5d]

ofcourse he is my friend!! now spread the message!

[@rayrayray]

100% he just wants a constant flow of new products for us to purchase and for him to make commission

[@LeavethePhilippines2]

I agree that its becoming a money generating scheme, but it is up to us to decide whether to buy their stuff (or not). Using their videos in KZbin is totally free, and his ideas are really helping me a lot.

[@warren2010]

@@rayrayray That's how businesses work!! He is running a business. But he is also giving some tips on productivity for free which some find useful!

[@kelvinmontage9001]

why? just cos he's selling a book? HAHAH jeez if that is the case, dont buy it then. leave the knowledge to us. Is it really that hard to distinguish between nonsense gibberish and actual constructive advice? every single productivity guru are spouting the same thing but most of yall dont actually implement it to see the changes it makes in your life. If them selling a book changes your perspective of them, then what's the point of books? I've read books like deep work, making it stick, atomic habits and they have really helped me improve mentally. It's like saying you've been getting free good advice from ur friend who's a doctor but just cos he or she decided to charge u for it u decide they are totally a sham. Make it make sense

[@giuliadianafrosi]

Thank you Google and Ali for this talk! Being an athlete this video gave me so much inspiration and reminded me about certain key techniques to get me going during difficult periods, for example when motivation might be low, also due to external factors! Thank you thank you 🫶🏼✨❤️

[@Juan-kd5nz]

I remember when @Google used to invite intellectuals and people with brilliant minds, now they only invite celebrities and KZbinrs with nothing to say.

[@user-kg1od9es5d]

yep its a joke isnt it.

[@sonic763]

Cost inflation. Speaking fees have gone up.

[@krothapalliswaroop]

Whom you value or whom you consider brilliant is personal and subjective. He is liked by millions. Has an interesting background and perspective on productivity

[@robelbegashaw8738]

You should know he is brilliant. He is famous not just for doing stupid things but also for changing people's lives by creating amazing content. One doesn't have to be an Engineer to be brilliant.

[@imrannazir6931]

​@@robelbegashaw8738it's unoriginal productivity porn. An old industry creating addictive content to keep people on a treadmill whilst they sell tickets, courses and books. I've been through it myself and found success in common knowledge
