Productivity tools for me= One of the most useful has been knowing the average length of time it takes me to complete daily/regularly required tasks (i.e. dishes, vacuuming, meals, laundry, shower, etc.). Then I can schedule the day appropriately so my non negotiables are always taken care of, and I do not overbook and have to wash my underwear at midnight or rush through eating breakfast (or both in the same day!).
I set a timer while performing each task a few times and took the average. I like scheduling busy days by the hour and knowing this information has resulted in many more balanced days.
Thank you for sharing your writing and now videos!
Ha! Very cool productivity strategy, I did the same thing a couple of years ago. I timed recurring tasks for a while, just like you explained. There were some interesting findings; in general, I tended to underestimate the average time it would take me to complete certain choirs. And as a result, also like you said, I would overbook my day. Once I got realistic estimates, that problem went away. Thanks for sharing!
If I want to shift from a consumer to a creator mindset, I first need to find something which sparks curiousity and if I have something I'm passionate about it's the question what to do with my topic of interest 😊
I get what you are saying. But I never had much luck with trying to figure it out on the drawing board, i.e., finding my passion first and then planning out a course of action. What worked best for me was to come up with a decent hypothesis (e.g., "I want to be a martial arts coach") and then get started right away. Even if it was the wrong hypothesis, I would learn things along the way that would then inform my next hypothesis. That is what got me clarity, eventually. I know other people who refused that process for fear of losing time, and ironically, now they are still trying to get clarity. But just my 2 cents :)
@@nielsbohrmann I appreciate that you took your time to answer me precisely. Your way of thinking makes me question the direction from which I try to find out more about my passions. Maybe it's an idea for a future video ;) Thank you for giving great input! Have a nice weekend
@@AliceMara My pleasure, Alice. And you are right, that might make a good video. I put it on the list. Have a great weekend too!
@@nielsbohrmann I relate to this. I have had many hypotheses and followed them to many "jobs" and places. All of the skills I have developed along the way, the people I've met, and the situations I experienced now provide me a wide variety of tools to draw from to make the greatest impact following the next passion/hypothesis. Now, I am running my own business, expanding it, and starting another. All experiments lead to results of some kind-keep going!
@@wild_goose00 "All experiments lead to results of some kind" They do. And you mentioned another key term there - experiments. That's the way to think about finding your passion - you must run a series of experiments. Learning what you are not passionate about (or not as passionate as you thought you would be) is a highly valuable insight. You didn't waste time. You crossed one distraction off your list and probably still learned several useful skills in the process.
Very cool that you started your own business!
