Is it bad that my whole reason to be more productive is so that I can read more manga at work lol love this, thanks for all the good ideas.....and now back to tales of demons and gods 😀
This video is priceless. I really appreciate the tips you shared. Here is five takeaways which caught my attention : 1. steal productivity with pride 2. Template repetitive tasks using google docs, spreadsheets 3. Automation with formulas (sum for example) and features (data validation) 4. Organize information by where it will be use 5. Being more productive by making pre-read before meeting Keep on delivery the your good content. Thank you.
" you noticed" lol. or you could just let people watch the video instead of taking watch time from Jeff by providing cliffnotes for a video he worked on
I work as a shelf stocker and listening to music and tuning out everything helps me. Or on slow days I'll listen to a podcast and find incorrect numbers. I am literally the only one that can do a certain job correctly and can do one aisle In the time it takes for 2 to work on it. I don't text, though I may scroll through UA-cam to grab a long video (usually on breaks). I'd also recommend focusing on one task at a time as you have a set amount of focus and it's impossible to multi-task. Being able to 100% one task then complete step 2 through 7 drastically speed things up, especially if you have to login each time you need to use your device and scan something. Or if moving a top stock cart takes more time than it should going in one direction helps.
100% my friend! I remember the times when people thought others who couldn't multi-task were "inefficient" but the truth is we SHOULDN'T be multitasking at all! Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Serious, Jeff: I love when you make videos in which you show us examples of how to be more productive using tools like Google Docs, Spreadsheets, Presentations, Notion etc. Even though my company hasn't adopted Google Workspace, I try to adapt your examples using Microsoft Word, Excel etc (although not with the same success, as the tools have some differences among them...)
Thank you for sharing these helpful productivity tips in your video that can benefit many people in their work. Here are the 5 key points of the video. 1. Steal productivity tips and materials with pride. 2. Template repetitive tasks to save time. 3. Automate input processes with formulas and features. 4. Organize information by where you'll use it. 5.

Yes, please share your video on how you handle projects at work using work apps (including for us Microsoft users if available). I’m new to productivity and PKM, and just starting out as a enterprise software project manager for a government entity. Your video topics *ARE EXACTLY* what I’ve been searching for to crystallize in my head the concepts and structures to guide me when trying to have a personal second brain in Reflect notes app, while ALSO having a file management system at work that doesn’t offer bi-directional links/backlinks.

I use WorkTime for remote work, and it has greatly helped me become more productive. This is especially beneficial when managing multiple projects simultaneously.
I've been watching Jeff's videos just because of the way he talks. I'm joking... his content is superb too. But I really like the way he conducts the video lol
I really enjoyed this video! The tip about stealing with pride hit home for me. I never thought about using other people's work as a jumping-off point instead of reinventing everything. Also, I love the idea of templates; it can save so much time on repetitive tasks. The automation tip was a game-changer too. Making things easier for my teammates means they’ll actually want to help me out more. And I totally agree about pre-reads-meetings can be a waste if nobody knows what's going on. Thanks for sharing these awesome tips!
Great video. Google Drive actually also have the "from a template" option for both sheets, docs, slides etc. It's great for recurring documents and saves time from copying and moving files around.
At this point, im 100% sure that knowing more about Google Workspace is much better for my productivity than trying to setup Notion! Thank you Jeff Su for all these real professional productivity tips.

Thank you, and keep doing what you’re doing 💙 I appreciate you!
@@JeffSu haha good q! It’s a term I came across in an article I read, I can’t remember which exactly. It referred to folks who use/create/ideate information and knowledge for a living… which you could argue is anyone in any profession really 😅

Just found this video. One of the reason I'm still believing that YT has a good algorithm most of the times. Love the way you conduct the video and how clear you talk. Good content and advices too! First video and just subscribed!
Amazing tips, I will definitely try them tomorrow like sync sheet into slides. Bookmarks between files. The relevant links section is gold and that's the most important for me since I work on many files on many servers. In windows, I have .txt file with the link to go on google drive. And I steal from my fabulous interns! They make my work look like crap when I open their spreadsheets.
Hahaha maybe the interns have been watching my videos? 😏 just kidding. But I'm curious what do you mean by "have .txt file with the link to go on google drive"?
@@JeffSu on internal server, the shared server where all the job stuff is, we have word, excel, powerpoint, other files on there. But we also use google suite and I love using slides, doc, etc. Something on the server I have my projects but I want to user(me) :P in the future to know that I did some presentation in google drive so i have this READ_ME.txt file with the link to the actual google slide/doc. Sometime I write READ_ME.txt with hyperlink to that google doc.
This is such an amazing video! Its funny, interesting and loaded with information I can use right away at work. Love your video style and the channel, Jeff!❤
If you're looking for an easy way to extract text from videos and images, I highly recommend TextGrab. It's a Chrome extension that makes it super simple to do just that.
Oh, men! I saw the thumbnail and thought “Run, Jeff is talking about MS365!” You tricked me, but it’s fine: the video was awesome! I did not know that you could bookmark a Google Doc for easy sharing
😂 Sorry to disappoint Laureano!!! I just liked the way the logos looked with the thumbnail image. But hopefully you didn't think it was TOO much of a bait-and-switch since the concepts apply to most, if not all, productivity apps? 😅
I Jeff, I'm a Canadian living in Thailand, but really hard to book work from over here. So thinking of publishing tech tips videos for small and medium size businesses. Your videos are top quality but I'm sure require tons and tons of time and effort...do you think using youtube as a channel could open doors for me and help me book customers? PS. Do you use Windows Automation tools like AutoHotkey or AutoIt ?
I want to say I'm surprised these are the tips considering it feels very basic, but I had people ask me how to use Google Docs after they had at least 5 years of experience with Google Suites in my memory. Great tips because now I know where to send these people to in the future
@@JeffSu I consume both anime and manga, though it depends on the series itself. Oh and not to forget Light Novels (mostly isekai anime source materials) to fool my parents into thinking I am doing some productive relaxation instead of wasting time.
@@arghya_333 Wow I had no idea what Light Novels are before you mentioned it and I googled it, thanks for teaching me something new! My favorite "niche" manga would be Claymore (since everyone obviously would know about the big 3 - naruto, bleach, and One Piece)
I gotta tell ya, it's still gonna be 2 - 3 days; productivity increases with pay, not with more tricks. At my previous job, there were many months every year where I regularly work less than 15 hours a week. Most of us are all very efficient and productive but we don't demonstrate that unless pay catch up first, we just pretend it still takes 2-3 days while completing it within few hours, so we can relax for a whole day.

"My mindset for using online tools is based on: Don't be held hostage to apps, systems and platforms! " Completely. For a few months I have been trying different tools for task management and in the end I am left with a personalized spreadsheet. In my case with Google Workspace but it could be Excel or any other.
Love the content, Jeff. Both productivity and humour hits home with me! Thanks! I would love to use Eesel better, it’s been my 2022 productivity hack but probably lack the structure you’d give to it. Are you using it?
"Colleagues are willing to help is the job is made easy for them" Well, not for my team... I literally coded Excel macros with easy prompts to fill in and made a tutorial to use it, and they just ask me to use the file alone and never use it themselves... Btw : macros for the automation ftw! You can code a complex one for one week and then make a 3-hour-long task shrink into a 3-minute-long one
Man I'm sorry to hear that Zarakaï 😅, it seems like you're a colleague I would LOVE to work with though lol! Here's something I'm embarrassed to admit: I used to use Macros alot and now...I have completely forgotten how to use even the simplest ones
Basically, you're teaching us how to save time for read One Piece while being payed... if isn't that the best way to read manga, I don't know what is hahaha New subscriber :)
@@JeffSu I guess you touched upon it already in some of your videos (eg: note-taking Google doc / Event management Google sheet). Also saw your Linkedin post a few days ago. It would be cool to have a "Top 10 template to make your work life easier": note-taking, canned emails, marketing campaign outcomes & learnings, roadmap, decision making" ... Sharp, beautiful, versatile templates are such a timesaver and a way to demonstrate exemplary professionalism (In my opinion). Thanks anyway for the great videos!
@@JeffSu few things I do to make my life easier, I use 2 conditional formatting. One for clients and one for my senior management folks emails. I go to auto correct and make some quick shorcuts for certain repetitive sentences. For very standard replies like reminder mails, I use autofill options. There are more to it

Completely.
For a few months I have been trying different tools for task management and in the end I am left with a personalized spreadsheet. In my case with Google Workspace but it could be Excel or any other.
Love the content, Jeff. Both productivity and humour hits home with me! Thanks!
I would love to use Eesel better, it’s been my 2022 productivity hack but probably lack the structure you’d give to it. Are you using it?
Thanks Adrià! I haven't heard of Eesel until you mentioned it, Googling it now haha
that last quote seems really true!
Glad you agree!
"Colleagues are willing to help is the job is made easy for them"
Well, not for my team... I literally coded Excel macros with easy prompts to fill in and made a tutorial to use it, and they just ask me to use the file alone and never use it themselves... Btw : macros for the automation ftw! You can code a complex one for one week and then make a 3-hour-long task shrink into a 3-minute-long one
Man I'm sorry to hear that Zarakaï 😅, it seems like you're a colleague I would LOVE to work with though lol!
Here's something I'm embarrassed to admit: I used to use Macros alot and now...I have completely forgotten how to use even the simplest ones
Great shortcuts, thanks for sharing them
Which was your favorite?
Great Vid Jeff as usual! Any chance we can get access to those templates? 😁😁😁😁 Pwetty Pweazzzze!?
The budget template is already shared 😁
Very useful tips. Thank you for sharing
No problem 😁
How did you get Google to allow you to use their work materials and also film inside the office?
Those are all my personal documents Matias 😁
@@JeffSu but the first scene is inside of google, correct? Otherwise you tricked me!
Love this, as always!❤🙌
Thank you Aveeraj! Hope some of the concepts are applicable for you right now!
@@JeffSu Yes, definately!
Basically, you're teaching us how to save time for read One Piece while being payed... if isn't that the best way to read manga, I don't know what is hahaha
New subscriber :)
Hahahaha a fellow OP fan I see, welcome 😁😁
Thanks again for this video Jeff 🤩 !
It’s cool to see you in a different place
You are pushing the limit of acting 😏 ahah
See you🤘
Preparing for my future career in acting 😁
Great video, could be interesting to focus on "templates" in general as a way to save time at work.
Thanks so much Sylvain! Sorry could you expand on what you mean by "focus on templates in general"? I feel like I'm missing something 😅
@@JeffSu I guess you touched upon it already in some of your videos (eg: note-taking Google doc / Event management Google sheet). Also saw your Linkedin post a few days ago. It would be cool to have a "Top 10 template to make your work life easier": note-taking, canned emails, marketing campaign outcomes & learnings, roadmap, decision making" ... Sharp, beautiful, versatile templates are such a timesaver and a way to demonstrate exemplary professionalism (In my opinion). Thanks anyway for the great videos!
@@sylvainbihan960 That's a great idea! Thanks for letting me know Sylvain!
So well done. Using all of these tips
Glad to hear it Dave! 😁
This video came at the perfect time!!!😀😀
Must be fate! 😁
Hey jeff! I'm a windows user, can you do some apps for windows? Maybe?
If I ever build another PC 🥲. I sold my last one to buy a Mac....
Microsoft Outlook has tremendous options to make life easier.
@@MrOudies Can you give me a specific example? This might be what I need to get a PC again 😂
@@JeffSu few things I do to make my life easier, I use 2 conditional formatting. One for clients and one for my senior management folks emails. I go to auto correct and make some quick shorcuts for certain repetitive sentences. For very standard replies like reminder mails, I use autofill options. There are more to it
@@MrOudies Ah got it, thanks for sharing and giving me something to think about!
