A More Human Approach to Productivity | Chris Bailey | TEDxLiverpool
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2016
- Chris Bailey has been obsessed with the subject of productivity for more than a decade. In this talk, he argues that productivity doesn't have to feel cold and corporate-and that it’s possible to get more done every day without hating the process. Drawing from a decade's worth of research, as well as his yearlong productivity project, Chris argues that the best way to become more productive is to manage our time, attention, and energy better. In addition to sharing this more human approach to productivity, Chris concludes by providing 5 practical ways we can all get more done every day.
Chris has experimented with every productivity technique under the sun including what it’s like to live like a caveman! His latest book "The Productivity Project" is based on his innovative research and underlines the claim that Chris ""might be the most productive man you’d ever hope to meet” (TED talks).
When Chris graduated University, he received two full-time job offers, but decided to decline them both to dedicate a full year of his life to exploring his passion: productivity. Over the past decade his experimentation continued and his work has received national and international media attention from The New York Times, Fortune, Fast Company, Lifehacker, New York Magazine, and countless others. Every month his work is read by about 200,000 people from almost every country around the world. You can view Chris’s work at ALifeofProductivity.com.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
1. Plan 3 tasks(and only 3) to finish each day: it forces you to prioritize and focus on what matters
2. Do one thing at a time: so we work deliberately on one work instead of multiple shallow works.
3. Get the most out of your potential energy: eating well (putting good fuel into our body), exercise, sleep (exchange time for energy), ...
4. Stay offline: our normal tasks take twice the time to finish when we have access to the Internet (because of procrastination)
5. Daydream: let the mind wander to connect the dots in your mind
Great. Thanks
you forgot about his insanely important point about meditating often (his schedule is 35 hours a week) to increase your focus and have a lack of stress - in fact, when he stopped meditating, he found his productivity levels were lower, despite having more time to work without it
No my n nnm
POop
PO koh Khoikhoi
Procrastinating at work by watching this video. It's obviously working.
I would love to meet this man, I owe him a lot.
Robby Why did you follow his principles? And find success? You’re channel looks impressive.
12:45 starts the five stuff tips for a productivity life.
Congratulations, Chris! You are demonstrating self actualization (essence of being in process) as part of your productive accomplishment (usually measured by external growth, yield, and development).
I don't know what every other comment person is trying to achive by being productive but if it's about doing my everyday job more easily and happily, then the video works. I found from my experience by being a bit alert, thinking ahead what's important to do and avoiding 'I'm busy' attitude actually gets the things done. And meditation certainly helps to control those emotions (busy-ness/hurrying, attention to moments).
Well done, Chris! You did a great job of outlining some simple but very effective ways to help anyone who wants to become more productive.
I love his talks and his excitement about productivity so much.
Really enjoyed that, Chris. Good stuff.
awesome talk. I have been reading Chris's emails on productivity for a good few months now and I find his approach both insightful and practical. It's nice to have a little nudge from him to keep reminding ourselves not to go back to bad habits - my least productive behaviour!
Totally agree. I've been reading him for a year!
Thank you, chris. The information you provided helped me a lot in my daily life. Thank you , once again.
Brilliant...so simple, and so true! As you say, it should be common sense, but it's not common action!
Best productivity talk i have listen so far
Great video. I’m glad you were able to experiment and give us real tips for us to use today
Downloaded and watching again n again n again, Thank you Tedx and Chris 🙏
The second he said he likes cosmology, I smiled. Yup, now I'm getting all the books he's written😂.
*Just superb, excellent idea*
Great show worth watching!
Something that bewildered me about most other advice on productivity is that the methods are just so mechanic, it tells you hustle like there’s no tomorrow, to segregate all your daily activities into orderly bits and always have absolute control over your behaviours. Like, where tf did all these people find that willpower and energy from to follow through all of that for long? Is it drugs? Needless to say none of those tips stuck on me, but I feel this guy’s perspective might fit me better. I’ll give meditation a shot ;u;
It’s been two years since you commented . I feel the same way you do but am just now listening to this instead of working! Did the information in the video help you?
Adderall
@sarake he was productive at every thing. Thank you for this talk.
Really useful, thank you Chris!
Great great talk. Meditation give you a very very clear road map for living your dreams. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
Chris, excellent talk.
just a great speaker.
Fantastic TED talk, l am stoked to try it out.
Yeah I have the same idea about productivity: make the best use of our time! ⏳⏰☀️
Fabulose advice i really respict this guy , he has a special thought different than the others i feel it helps be a lot
I have a short-term attention span, so I had to watch this twice to be able to capture the second part of the talk.
this was great. thnx you
I'm just here wondering, what was he productive on? His productivity project?
Along the lines of your question, I had looked up the definition of "productive" and noticed that as an adjective the meaning depended on what it was modifying; e.g. a productive farm could be measured by the quantity and/or quality of harvest. On the other hand, a productive career might be synonymous with wealth, creativity, or personal satisfaction - depending upon one's values. Thus it seems from the title that this speaker's measure of value is indicated by the essence: "human", which could vary from one to another, but yields satisfaction correlated to the individual's values. The personal awareness and value of reflection would be a feature of the meditation time and isolation aspects of his exploration. I liked your question a lot because it requires us to consider that productivity involves focus on both being and doing. Thanks for contributing ... Good day!
He was productive on every aspect of his live. His mind, body, and yeah one of them as you write, his productivity project.
Productivity means making of, just move on, do something restlessly,

Bad Idea.
THANK YOU!!❤️❤️❤️😴👍🏼
He dissed David Allen so bad.... "One of those corny books where the author puts a picture of himself on the cover"
His book is also corny
BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT
Excellent
So few views, but such important theme
Productivity, focus motivation are linked to the brain biochemistry, hormone balance , appropriate level of precisly minerals and vitamines. Lack of focus, productivity , motivation are symptoms of given problems related to the brain biochemistry unbalance, lack of crucial minerals that the brain need to work properly , hormone unbalance etc
Usually, it is necessary, dozens of analysis to identify the roots of the problems .Myself using an artificial intelligence programme, i am able to discover if an employee has productivity , focus motivation problems through a simple blood analysis, in which I use to follow just 3 parameters. All explanations that are out there does not help The situation is similar to that in which a Lamborghini has no fuel oil, lubricant, and water, and thousand people are out there teaching the driver how to win a race.
"I tried something and hated it. Therefore, it has no benefits for the rest of society."
Will someone please help me, I thought I saw a TED talk video some years ago in which a young guy talks about his experiments with productivity, and I think this is they guy, but I thought the video was longer, and that there was a part in which he showed a picture of a very messy apartments from a 10 day isolation experiment. It is not this particular video, but did he maybe do another version of this presentation some time before this one?
I am glad I saw this over his other 50 min video. I end up wasting only a fraction of my time.
LOLS
4:53 poor guy. He is proud about 10 days
i m watching this video offline
Rule of 3

Good
I Plan 10 tasks and only 5 to finish each day minimum.
Thank you adderall for giving us this man and his research.
What’s wrong with procrastinating? As long as I get paid
Maybe they say it, maybe they don’t? Then how do you know they noticed it...🤔😒
seriously why do people video stuff rather than listen (or take notes) esp. when you know it's being videoed and will be posted online later
Ross Geography So they can post it on social media to look productive

Starts at 00:00 darling
12:30
Fatal Error: You researched and pushed yourself to establish new habits. By that you destroyed your already in place routines and killed productivity by it.
Further mistake: Internalizing a habit to wake up early takes much more than three month; first you need to adapt and second you have to live it so it gets really internalized and yields the results you intended.
And...some many more flaws...
But you stated also many great points! So thumps up.
3 months has 12 weeks. That's enough to get a habits doesn't mean you like it.
I find it weird that he rejected a job that would actually teach him about productivity
interested is not nerd/y , fools
turning off the internet is definitely the first step...meditation is not necessary though...reading is better
Freddy K I think that it's to each his own. Some would argue that taking a walk is better, so there's not a specific answer.
Freddy K But about the internet, you're definitely right.
Liverpool blows - otherwise good talk :)
"Abeouwt".
Production is just not produce more but better....
Me watching this on x2 speed 😎😎😎
Wooow. Well intentioned but these points are all over the map. Is meditation the solution here...or what? A trip back to Toastmasters would help this speaker. Did Tedtalks vette this speech?
Good talk. There are many inspirational points in the space. However, his definition of productivity is ill defined and vague. He says that to be productive you only need to carry out behaviours associated with your dayly objective regardless of the significance of the objective. This is very ill, non-motivational, and vague detention. Furthermore, objectives achieved during the day should be valuable both to the person and to those around him, and not some nonsense objectives like binge watching a series on Netflix. That's called relaxation and entertainment. I personally define productivity as engaging in challenging behaviours/works through out the day that are aligned with the goal of striving to be come my idealself and it is measured be how much time I spend doing quality work.
Omg, I'm 7 minutes in and haven't learned anything. He doesn't care about our productivity while listening to this. zzz
Yikes
He’s just regurgitating nonsense
да ладно вы гоните, это ж ваще не возможно
The video title is kinda disingenuous. Seems like a presentation of some loose ideas compiled together that vaguely correlate to “more productivity” which is not what the title speaks to.
Cute and delicious.
The dramatic boundary canonically sparkle because tulip minimally suggest absent a sour owner. unique, skillful spot
The tacky limit geographically water because harmony emphatically obtain as a fretful computer. five, courageous probation
Talking BS
He sounds and looks so fake
Because he is fake
If you want to meditate, study Islam.
Because in Islam, same as Christianity, there are bull loads of meditating?
as you know meditation is contacting to your soul, and the Quran which the book of Islam here is some verses of it, I would like you to read about it.
www.oneummah.net/quran/book/2.html
Actually no. If you want to meditate, study zen Buddhism. That has a much better understanding of meditation than Islam does. To add, a lot of the verses you referred to have faith as a focal point, which is not strictly speaking meditation.
YourLaughzZ Or maybe do both 😊 (Btw GTD = Getting things done by David Allen)
Cabdullaahi Bootaan then you know what not to do!
1. Plan 3 tasks(and only 3) to finish each day: it forces you to prioritize and focus on what matters
2. Do one thing at a time: so we work deliberately on one work instead of multiple shallow works.
3. Get the most out of your potential energy: eating well (putting good fuel into our body), exercise, sleep (exchange time for energy), ...
