Thankfully Tiago has created one of the world's most popular systems to Capture, Organise, Distill and Express pretty much anything.
Expect to learn the most important apps Tiago uses to enhance his productivity, why everyone needs to go through an insane efficiency stage in life, how he's moving beyond pure productivity and into something more holistic, why read later apps can save your life, how to use the relationship between productivity and creativity and much more...

I've actually experienced the burden of too much responsibility. I got close to burnout and rebalanced to what I am capable of.
This is golden interview again @Chris Williamson
Off-brand Elon Musk 🤣
Exactly my thought, two minutes into the video
I was about to type this lol
😂
And far better spoken 😂
@@vladanr74 true, but the autism that causes him to speak awkwardly is the same autism that made that fucker so brilliant.
All about trade offs lol 😂
This guy's laugh is exactly like an anime villain who finally confronts the protagonist while sipping wine from a fine crystal glass.
39:07 You can *absolutely* take too much responsibility to the point where you are diminishing your own effectiveness. That was one of my mistakes this last year at work in my new leadership role as a leader among leaders. I was happy and willing to support the onboarding of other new departments, but after working 100 hours a week, for 9 straight months, I realized I had enabled an unhealthy dynamic where I was playing Savior while they played the Helpless Victim. I decided I could no longer fight to prevent a crisis of their own making, and letting the crisis unfold was their best teacher. I have cut my work hours in half, they are starting to do their jobs, and I enjoy the freedom of saying NO a lot more often. I'm still there to support and guide within reason - but I won't do their jobs for them anymore.
Look up an illustration of "The Drama Triangle: Victim, Persecutor, Rescuer"
1:01:33 I love this new take on productivity. The general consensus is that discipline always triumphs over motivation. But highly disciplined people can easily be taken advantaged of because they lack passion 24:12. I think that "discipline v. motivation" attitude can be confusing because most people aren't robots; we're very emotionally and spiritually driven. And with the right mindset, the work just does itself. You form your own routine, your own goals, rituals that resonate with you.
🙌🏻🙌🏻💜💜
I've been awaiting the Elon interview for quite a while. Thanks for bringing it to fruition!
Same, great to see Elon being a bit more comfortable with American English
This started off strong then descended into two stoned people in the smoking area of a club
I absolutely love your interviews. You have the best topics and you interview the most interesting and passionate people. Thank you for bringing so much new and critical information to us!
“Perfectionism is a nice way to hide from shipping at a pace necessary that allows you to find what works.” - 12:40
Excellent stuff. Thanks!
Shift from column of consumption to creation in yout domain. Don’t know what your domain is? Create. Iterate. Don’t perfect.
Perfection is the lazy way for delaying iteration of seeing what works.
I consume too much. Omg, This is bringing much needed awareness to my current foibles.
The mention of David Allen reminds me of a statement he made on a Stoia podcast. I took that his objective in putting his process out into the world wasn't efficiency, it was to help people overcome ambient anxiety to become happier.
Chris, first time hearing of you. Love your meaningful questions here. Very charismatic as well.
That was a great episode. I could really relate from the opening statement of being a creative and productivity. Going to do more research on Tiago. Thanks Chris for putting this one together.
Great episode! Thank you both for the content shared! 😉
21:30 Gentle reminder that the Film Actors Guild is the parody of the Screen Actors Guild from the movie Team America. You can tell them apart quickly by spelling out the acronym.
Chris,
I don’t think your combination of views on personal sovereignty and agency together with the overwhelming influence of fate / karma on determining our outcomes is a ‘cope’ at all; I’m pretty sure you’re spot on.
We see a similar phenomenon all the way down at the level of our genes. The vast majority of our genomes are identical, the genomic variations between us are in a relatively minuscule number of base pairs. So it is simultaneously true that the overwhelming majority of the genetic code that makes us who we are is identical across the entire species, and also that the variability in those extremely few (relatively) base pairs result in truly extraordinary phenotypic variation from individual to individual.
This phenomenon plays out anatomically, physiologically, and psychologically.
The vast majority of our anatomy and physiology is extremely consistent across the entire population of healthy people, the fundamentals of who we are are what they are simply by virtue of us being members of the Homo sapiens species. At the same time it is also true that the anatomical and physiological variations between us, as small as they are in the scheme of things, result in tremendous real world differences between us despite how similar we are in the vast majority of our fundamental characteristics.
Psychologically also, so much of our “stuff” is actually very consistent across the population and actually quite predictable. If we were as fundamentally different as it may intuitively seem that we are, psychology and psychiatry would be a complete waste of time, and they are not. By a long stretch.
At the same time it is also true that we are extraordinarily unique as individuals. The differences between individuals that are empirically very small in the scheme of things are profound in their experiential impact, making the practices of psychology and psychiatry so complex and nuanced despite how similar we are fundamentally.
Bringing that all back, it makes perfect sense (IMHO) that technically the overwhelming majority of our experience IS just the ‘naturally determined’ (?) outcome of our genes, circumstances, and experiences, but phenomena like personal sovereignty and agency that are an empirically very small part of the picture have outsized impact in terms of what we ultimately experience.
My favourite type of content. 👏👏
Life as convergent, reallity as fractal♥️
Great info and insights!!
“I only read about the far fiction or about the far past” Wow😂!!! Me too! And I always thought 💭 ‘what’s wrong with me?’ Thanks for the great podcast once again!!!
Loved this conversation thank you for sharing!! very meta haha
Ok. I did it all. My life is perfect.
Do you have any methods how to deal with emptiness?
You may not like the answer but that's what happened to me...I am going to church
find Jesus🙇🏾♂️
When this happens to me I look outward toward connection, usually through volunteering.
I have that feeling like there's a destiny to life too, but for me, it's more like a responsibility or a duty.
The best thing for me while sorting through important information is to not take anyone's word for it. If someone said the moon is white because of .... I'd rather investigate that on my own. Leaving more room for any missed data.
Wonderful
Awesome
Great episode! You should interview author Mark Lynas, an ex-greenpeace activist who is now an advocate for GM foods, would be a great conversation.
Know thine enemy, certainly. Not someone to admire.
32:55 damn I’m 19 and I can relate to this a lot
Already found my 10
35:13 - powerful

'Minimalist phone' app is a saving grace if you struggle with the over-usage of your phone. It no longer makes everything so intuitive and habitual, I recommend
I think we should use a new lense to look through, like the scientific method.
What is there in every situation?
Movement/action, emotions, thoughts.
But if I am aware of those 3 apects of life, what do I do with it?
I think we all need to understand, that emotion's are always the key factor in Relation to thoughts and actions
Every factor is interconnected with each other and influences each of them but emotions are the base of it. And because everything is oscillating we should focus on what can change the most and influence our behavior the most.
I believe If you are able to identify your emotions, accept them, refraim them and then deal with them, then you will achieve all those other things way easier.
Different emotional states = different thoughts = different actions
Better emotional state = better thinking = better actions = better emotions ...
His resemblance to Elon Musk is so scary
One of the most important factors that allowed western capitalism to defeat communist central planning is that the communists specifically the soviets could produce/churn out widgets but they couldn’t innovate like the west with no competition or incentive to work harder.
The chair I use most is in my car.

His laugh is so funny
Robert Pattinson and Elon Musk had a love child
Great content. Just shows stunt doubles have something to say as well.
Oh fuck🤣🤣 i literally googled him to find out if he is a stunt double. Ok I got it
Pretty much every self development book is a commonplace book
I thought he would’ve said more self development books
I think I have seen him somewhere
Yeah I’m not too keen on technology however I will use to my advantage aswell ass writing lyrics and ideas down however I would rather see a pad and pencil/pen

This guy looks far more like elon musks brother than kimbal 😂
Elons Junior Brother
Great Value Elon Musk
OMG Is this guy related to Elon Musk? stunning resemblance!
Be careful about depending on google for anything. If there's anything that is simply factual that for whatever reason becomes politically charged, they will and have gone back to rewrite history and facts and changed the definitions of words, etc. Use them for the here and now, if you must, but don't depend on them if you can avoid it. At least attempt to diversify your resources.
ELON MUSK?
144p Elon Musk
Is this Elon musk's brother

@Ainstein Gilbert I have heard a lots about investments with Mr George Moriz and how good he is, please how safe were the profits
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about Mr George Moriz he is now currently managing my account I just made my second withdrawal trading with him. I can't wait another two weeks to cashout again.
I think I am blessed because I couldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mr George Moriz, I've made a lot of profits in the past few days

Is this a deepfake of Elon Musk?
I commented on the audio sync being off and they deleted my comment. On that note I agree, deep fake
Here me out… if Elon had a brother
Divergence and convergence is a complete different definition to exploit 😂not the same thing or meaning
He looks like the asian version of Elon Musk
This comment is so underated
Turn off the news, and go outside.
Ragtag
I commented on this video about half an hour after the video upload. Low and behold the comment I commented on has been deleted. Funny 😁 So he said that this dudes face was disturbing and maybe HD video should be banned. I commented that maybe that was because his facial expressions were out of sync with the audio, making him harder to read! Both comments deleted!
So on this note I'm unsubscribing, because either this is a weird deep fake, or the channel can't take constructive criticism. Either way I'm disappointed.
Maybe the original commentor deleted his comment
Get out of here that’s an Elon deepfake
Who brought discount rack Elon musk?
They got him at Ross Dress for Less
This dude looks like a bad rendition of Elon Musk no cap fr fr
Who ARE these people, and why do they look like test-tube aliens.

learn correct English pronunciation Chris, you say e.g. "oonproductive" instead "unproductive" or "stooff" instead of "stuff"
He looks cgi.
This guy looks like a Deepfaked Elon Musk!
