      Could you make a video or go more in depth about what constitue a good break? Is watching a YT video a good way to take a break for example or is there some activities that will make it so our break is not as effecient.

    Very inspiring video! I learned the following (notes for myself):
    1- Have a plan (block time and have a goal either long and/or short term)
    2- Know how you feel (it's about awareness so practice meditation and FBR method if you're a content creator)
    3- Stop multitasking (finish A, then proceed to B)
    4- Take breaks (focus for 52 minutes and rest 17 - or just focus until you loose it - deactivate notifications)
    5- The golden trio (Diet, Exercice and Sleep became like a cliche - focus on the hardware before the software)

What helped me was filming myself while doing random activities (like washing dishes) and narrating what I was doing or thinking at the time. I didn’t show these videos to anyone, but I was watching them from time to time.

There was a part of me that actually feared success and this was such a blessings when I recognized it, because it's what I've used to help family, friends, and even clients overcome this fear. Thank you for not only providing resources that people can use, but I thank you for showing yourself in these different examples in your videos. Many creators operating at high levels like yourself, rarely share their struggles and things that are challenging for them. I appreciate you being vulnerable and showing exactly what you do.

    Ali, I work in an industry where I have to read contracts that are very important for my company not to lose money and they are not very fun, it’s feels a lot of pressure to understand everything. I have a method that it’s like going to the gym, but for my brain. What I find very useful it’s to have a different task that brings my brain to that concentration stage ( a task that I enjoy, it could be reading something I found very interesting or doing some math related tasks) when I am already very focused, I switch to read those contracts. Right now after I begin using this method for a long time (like 15 years), it’s just takes a few minutes to feel ready…. Literally 3 to 5min. If I want to make it fun, I put a very relaxed music with natural sounds. You should try it and let me know if works for you!

      In your breaks, you're allowed to not do anything. Let your mind wander. Steve Jobs had ideas while on walks. Others have ideas in the shower. If you constantly do something all day until you sleep, it's like having a high CPU in your laptop, spending so much energy to process stuff going on, which subsequently lowers the performance of your laptop (similar with our brains). Multitasking and hustling all day 7/7 isn't so productive and has higher chances of you burning out. Suggested book to read on this: Stolen Focus - Johann Hari.

    As a matter of fact, we all know these problems yet we find ourselves in the depths of THE DISTRACTION WORLD and despite taking any action we tend to watch every new video of Ali Abdaal deceiving ourselves that it might help.That's just escapism,a way of avoiding the real monster.

    Thanks for this video. I agree with the notion that you get distracted when you don't have a plan or intention for how you will use a certain amount of time. It is hard for me to create a schedule for every waking moment of my life, however. In the past when I have had so many things back-to-back-to-back, I've felt very stressed very quickly. I need that time to not have anything to do... that time for rest or spontaneity. Oftentimes, I think of myself as very lazy because there are many moments when I really don't feel like doing anything at all - that allows me to feel energized later. So I guess this concept of time allocation and distraction has generated more questions than answers for me.

      The Creator of everything is : Allah " الله " , and He created us to worship Him alone, and in order to teach us how to worship Him, He sent prophets like " Noah, Abraham Moses, Jesus, " peace be upon them, and the last of the Messengers is Muhammad, may الله prayers and peace be upon him. Therefore, to enter Paradise and to survive punishment , must follow the last of the Prophets and Messengers, mohammed ﷺ ..We also believe in all the heavenly books such as : The Bible , the torah , the zabor ... Which " ALLAH الله " revealed to his prophets and messengers ، But it has changed and distorted. Therefore, " الله " sent Muhammad ﷺ with the
      " Qur’an “ God’s Preserved Words” to restore the previous religions to the truth.There is a lot of evidence that indicates that the Qur’an is a miracle ... We mention for example: its rhetorical and linguistic miracle, its scientific miracle, as it talked about scientific facts that have been discovered now only after technological development, just as the Qur’an talked about historical facts that they will happen and have already occurred Most of the current discoveries, in all fields, are present and mentioned in the Qur’an 14 centuries ago .The biggest sin in Islam is "shirk " polytheism For example, to worship Jesus This is a shirk Whoever worships other than God "Allah الله " is in the hell .We love and believe in all the prophets and messengers , but worship is only for " ALLAH الله " Like prayer and asking for forgiveness and mercy are only for " Allah الله " .whoever become Muslim all sins are forgiven by " ALLAH الله"He is like a new page, so he should be keen on doing good deeds Because heaven is the abode of bliss , pleasure , And everything your soul desires and what " الله ALLAH" has prepared for its people is beyond imagination The five pillars of Islam: Shahada, establish prayer, Zakat, fasting Ramadan, and Hajj.The Pillars of Faith: It is the belief in God "Allah الله " , His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and Predestination " Qadar " .A free person is a Muslim , by his servitude to " الله ALLAH ", is liberated from everythingTo become a Muslim, the first thing to do is to say
      the " shahada " testimony :" I bear witness that there is no god for worship except " ALLAH الله " and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His Messenger "Learn about " Islam " to know the true purpose of your existence in this life , and you know how to worship the one who created your heart , any question about Islam I can help you " insha allah " . Especially at the present time, you can download an application with the prayer call " adhan " that reminds you of the 5 prayers times And give you the direction of the qiblah this after saying testimony " shahada " And learn purity ( how to make ghusl and ablution )

  • @EugeneBoOK

    I set "marathons" for myself. 30/60+ days of doing something without fail. It is the most efficient tool to me. I choose the activities that are truly important to me, and I add a value due to the amount of days of doing these activities without fail. I mean, I already wanted to do that (language learning, doing exercises, drinking at least 1.5 l of water, etc), and now I've got the extra motivation - I don't want to ruin the successful line of days, and I see the horizon when I can reward myself, or take a deserved break, but as a winner.
    So, when I within a marathon and I know for sure that anyway I will do all the necessary things, it's easier for me to choose time and to stick to agenda. The previous achievements strengthen me, and inevitability of a task helps to do it whatever it takes.

    1. Make a plan for the task you want to complete
    2. What -ve emotion is leading you to get distracted?
    Is it Anxiety, Self-doubt, Boredom
    3. Do one thing at a time (attention residue)
    4. Take breaks for better productivity
    a)set time intentionally for breaks
    b)or work until your focus drops
    Things you do break during should not put more load on you
    5. Better/improve these habits (eating, sleeping, exercise)

I put all 5 points down in my exercize book/ journal. AND THEN, I got stuck into my Astrology audio lesson with a stop at the 55 min mark.I repositioned my 5 shelf book shelf to give my desk more space in the break. Then I did another 45 mins to finish the tape. It really worked. !!!!! Plus I subscribed to your channel.

    What I got out of step 1 making a plan, is that although I time block, I don't have anywhere in my calendar what the end goal is (or the intention), so I think this and step 1 on video 3 of the series on updating daily the google doc on what I accomplished, is really essential. I have no problem scheduling, but I often fail to stick to what I scheduled, and I think it's because I need that reminder/daily review of the end goal.
