You are right. I organize my schedule in the same way. I use time blocking only for work meetings; and setting weekly, monthly and yearly goals. This way I've got an amazing amount of things done in the last two years. And, of course, embrace the chaos! It doesn't help if one becomes upset when things don't flow like planned, the faster way out is to keep calm and reorganize on-the-fly.😉
Oh thank you for sharing! So intereresting to hear how other people are doing it. Also very happy that you got many things done in the past two years WITHOUT any crazy time blocking practice 😄
I share a similar work structure. Calendars are not for me, tasks are always unpredictable, and procrastrination (which is subconscious creativity) is also quite strong. The only real enemy, as you identified, is "fake work". As Stephen Covey puts it "Urgent / Non Urgent" "Important / Non Important" 2x2 matrix, the highest dopamine happens in Urgent and Non Important and that's where most of us humans live. But it's where fake work happens.
Hi Thu, thank you for sharing your experience and feelings about your journey. This is very helpful for me to reflect on my own work and life. I notice you like using Notion to plan your monthly and weekly goals. Why do you like Notion?
Bias for action I think plays a major role in all that you have mentioned. We have to get started first and then use all the tools you have shared. Much appreciated. Thanks a lot.
Hi Thu Vu. So happy to see the notification. Thank you for talking about how you found time everything with a full time job. It is helpful. Keep it up!
Thank you for your advice. Yes mental health is important especially working in the field of computer science and information technology. I think a healthy information diet is important to stay in form. We need to have a well balanced appetizing data consumption that is sustainable and sharable. We'll stay motivated like happy rebels! 🤘😊
Loved this video Thu! As your advices are very down to earth and implementable, more so than those productivity influencers! So thank you and keep it up!!
Hi, like your videos:) I think for this video there was enough information for 2-3 videos. Would be happy to see you frequently on UA-cam. And I feel like for me personally it would be easier to digest the information from the video if it would be actually separated into couple of videos) Thank you for your work)
The scene from the movie "Men In Black 3" 2012 when J and K were in the diner, stumped on their case. K said "Pie don't work if you don't let it." , comes to mind. Meaning distract yourself from the problem you're stuck on for a bit to give your conscious mind a break & let your subconscious mind do the heavy lifting. Low and behold, the answer pops into J's head & K gloats, "I told you trust the pie!"
Hi Thu Vu ! I just watched your video on fulltime job, and I loved it. Your content is amazing, and I believe with a bit of professional touch on video editing and thumbnails, your channel can reach even greater heights. I specialize in video editing, thumbnail creation, and account SEO. If you're interested, I'd love to help you enhance your channel. Let's chat!
Yes, you can either request a generic academic reference letter or a more relevant one for your Masters directly to the university/ organization you want to send to
Super nice to hear your thoughts on embracing chaos 🫶 I am going through the same, sometimes feel stressed and annoyed that I can’t keep up with my schedule and calendar, but anyway always complete the task (following the the way you just described). My everyday just passes the way you described, shallow work in the morning, focused deep work afternoon, and finally after exercise and dinner will have my time for creative work and reading. Thank you so much for sharing this. Now I feel even more positive to do things the way I always do. ❤️
And you add another layer of difficulty if you have kids.
Hahaha, that’s absolutely true. I’m yet to discover that layer 🤣

Oh that's interesting, great to hear. Indeed tasks are often so unpredictable to maintain a neat & back-to-back schedule.

yeah the key is having an easy ass bullshit job where you only actually work for like an hour a day. that's the key.
Hahaha, I kind of envy those when it comes to the time budget 🤣
Haha....Most of my work is "shallow". So I have time for everything :)

Lần đầu tiên nghe Thu nói tiếng Anh :)))
What platform do you use to create the to do list?
I use Notion and downloaded a free weekly to-do template. Then I also added the weekly goals for each week so I know what to focus on 😊
❤❤❤
