Money can protect us from sadness but it can't buy us joy. I agree with this!
This recommendation is remarkably oblivious to the reality that some people have no choice but to spend all their time working for money just to survive.
She talks about it in her book. Leaders in society can make systemic changes to fix that.
When the direction is clear, time is well spent in what is needed
Most important aspect is deciding the right direction and sticking on to it . Well explained the aspects in simple terms. Lot of good tips as take away 👍
Thank you Ashley. Excellent talk and great points. Fully agree.
Great great talk . Beautiful amazing impressive soul. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
Maybe if we weren't forced to work 40++ hours every single week of our lives doing something that only pays the bills and does not truly fulfill us or bring us joy, a larger percentage of people would be happier. Giving this much time to work takes our time and energy away from being with family and friends more, hobbies we enjoy, learning new skills, exercising, cooking better meals... People should be protesting about the 40 hour workweek and protesting about getting a monthly universal basic income so maybe we can have more choices in our lives and stop giving so much power to our employers and to the rich. Employers should also be forced to provide at least 1 month off paid vacation after 1 year of loyalty and some flexibility in life but majority of them don't. There are so many things wrong with the system.
Lol, im a medstuden and work 100 hours a week and had to choose my upcoming exam over my first love..
@@MakaveliFan71 Wow, I don't know how you do it 😧😓 Maybe working 40 hours wouldn't be so bad if I felt fulfilled, not sure. I know the medical field can be very fulfilling, not only because it pays very well but you're helping people. Everyone is different though. I like my job but not enough to be stuck there for 40+ hours anymore but I don't have many other options. I definitely applaud you for your dedication and your energy, for lack of better terms :)
CC Ok commie
Saying no to someone is like saying yes to yourself.
5:25~5:50 why don't you use calendar? Before saying yes, check your calendar, you needn't remember everything planned in the future, but need know how to check everything planned in the future. Human brain doesn't like to remember every planned tasks, it's normal, we could use tools to help us on this task.
I did not see transcrip. Pls help me!
Really good talk!
Money makes life comfortable.....that's all.
Fajne :)
Underrated talk!
What could a time affluence to-do list look like I wonder...
Could be just carrying a small book with you everywhere and reading a few pages when you have the opportunity (say like in a waiting room at a doctor's office).
"time wh*re"
I can relate to this term
Okay, good talk, but she was really trying to be funny and I just didn’t work:(
Anyone who is a good planner knows this is common sense
Me wasting my time watching this
Spending* your time watching this. Because if you didn't spend it, then it surely would be wasted.
