Martin's Kitchen System Back Burner - things that need to be done, but are not the main focus Vitamins - things that are small, important, but are done everyday Main Burner - the task you are focused on Oven - things on a timer that are scheduled to be done at a certain time

After that easy things. Write It down where You can see It all the time. No mobile, you are tempted to distract. That is It. I hope It helps!! Great vídeo!!

Something that works so well for me and can be added to all these systems. If something pops into your head you want to procrastinate on, write it down in a todoist list called "rewards". Use that to motivate you by using the pomodoro method and do a "reward" during your 5 min break. For me this is often amazon shopping or getting a cup of tea or snack or chatting with someone. This works by using your dopamine response to motivate you, and create strong habits. Reducing alcohol use has also has increased motivation and helped manage habitual behaviours which are especially sticky in our home environment, I've found.

Separating deadlines from "intention to work on something" has been super important for me! I've tried all the apps, and I keep ending up back at Things 3 for exactly this reason. I can have lists categorized more "classically" (Work/School/Personal/etc.), with hard deadlines on each item/project. But, I can also add times to actually work on those items.

Hello Thomas. I want to start off by saying that I'm a huge fan! I've been watching your videos for some time now and you've helped me learn so much about productivity. I didn't even know there was a school of thought about productivity science until I came across your channel. Request: Can you do a video about managing cognitive load while working from home. I have a strong processing speed and I find myself getting super tired (i.e., mentally exhausted by the end of the day). I'm an instructional designer, and this is a new role for me. It involves so much from visual and graphic design, to planning course material with subject matter experts, and more. I'm finding myself getting distracted, taking more frequent breaks just to get through some of the monotony. What can I do to manage my cognitive load during the working day so that I can be better at my role?

Hope you enjoyed this one! I'm going to try something new and create a public journal of sorts that details how I'm pushing my skills and learning. 1% Rule log for this video: - I wanted the reel-to-reel to spin continuously and never skip due to a jump cut. So I had to film the video twice and alternate angles anytime I didn't cover up a cut with B-roll - Combined two different creative LUTs to achieve more retro looking skin tones. In the past I've always just tried to choose one. I also experimented with masked/feathered color grading layers on the sides that have the "faded film" slider pushed up, which did an ok job of simulating a bit of haze without making the middle section look too faded. - Got a bit better at EQ'ing the dialogue - though I did screw up with the mic positioning on the wide shot, which is why it's a bit echo-y when I lean forward. What is the 1% Rule? Essentially, it's the idea that you should aim to get 1% better with each piece of work you do, instead of pressuring yourself to create "perfect" work. Over time, these 1% improvements add up as long as you're consistent. More info in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpCphIZ5Ys6rgZo I'll also be collecting all these journal entries here: thomasjfrank.com/my-1-rule-journal/

Great video. The kitchen analogy didn't work for me so I've modified it slightly. Daily Vitamins - Tasks - Important - My Day - It's really helped as my daily tasks (vitamins) was making my lists too long The art of a good system is finding a balance between too many categories and lists that are too long. If the kitchen analogy doesn't work maybe build a system based on something that interests you. For example if it was exercise you could have warm up, main event and cool down.

This is my personalized scheduling system which I have tried to perfect over the last year, and which has worked great for me so far. I have a special note on my phone named "Plan" where I write down my daily routines and list the order of sub-actions that go into them along with how long each sub-action lasts (on average) and how long the whole thing lasts. Beneath them (or in between) I list the activities I normally do or some specific ones that I plan just for the occasion. I then mark the activities which I do today and write an estimate on how long it'll take, or just a limit if I am unsure of my evaluation. I might add an additional deadline if needed. At the bottom of the list, I write exactly how much time I have left this day before sleep and the exact time of the last update. Next to it, I write down how much time it'll take to complete the activities I've already listed and derive from that the amount of unscheduled time I have and usually aim towards having around one and a half to two hours for the unexpected emergencies, spontaneity, and improvisation. Underneath this list, I have a list "Reminder" for important things that need to stand out, but for which I am unsure when I'll have time to complete. And underneath that one is a little pesky one which keeps growing beyond control. I titled it "The things I know I need to do" for activities and habits which I know I should incorporate but haven't done so yet for a variety of reasons. I hope anyone who has read this far found some use in it, or may even have some suggestions. Have a productive and peaceful day!

I also keep track of opportunities and possibilities of daily situations which influence my approach to different situations. The practice that has helped me better understand what is important and what is not is a Sentence Completion practice from the book "Six Pillars of Self Esteem" by Nathaniel Branden, which I think is a must-read for every person who wants to improve themselves.

That was awesome! I agree with you. A lot of people are waiting for motivation to start working, but we don't really need to be motivated to follow a plan. However, when I AM motivated, I leverage that time to develop the vision for my projects or make plans. I use checklists for every day in my work - I know exactly what I need to accomplish each day of the week to keep a pulse on my personal and professional life. And then I just follow the lists. Martin's Kitchen System sounds very interesting too.

I've been liking the flexibility to time box while working from home. As a teacher, my day is pretty scheduled for me. But at home, I make appointments for livestreaming and have the ability to schedule the rest of it: correcting, lesson planning, breaks, and my personal life.

Great work on this video, your new series/idea sounds interesting as well. Being quite productivity focused I have implemented a system very smilier to the one you describe using Todoist, a calendar and some form of daily list (usually a written list or time blocking). However, I always end up being stuck with 2 problems, first one is planning and running a plan for big projects with lots of small sub-projects/tasks. Second, is when there is some disruption of of some kind that takes me out of my usual routine or straight up motivation is low and I end up getting massively behind. With both issues I become a total wreck when trying to face up to getting myself re-organised so I typically end up getting easy stuff done like tidying up my email, files, desk etc. As a result I find it even more difficult to get caught up and the cycle goes on. Some videos on these sorts of issues, or if you could point me towards existing content that would be great.

It's definitely a struggle working for yourself to make sure you are getting the things done that are important. It's easy to spend way too much time on things that really won't make a difference in your business. I love the methods you suggested. I have my own hybrid of this. I write my daily to-dos on a piece of paper that I crumple up and throw away at the end of the day. It's funny how good crumpling up that paper makes you feel! Thanks as always for the great content. I love reading your 1% journals too! Keep up the good work!
