The Hierarchy of Productivity: Getting Things Done
HTML-код

- Perhaps you are interested in retiring early as a full-time investor?
Maybe you need your business to become profitable in the next six months?
Or perhaps you just want to nail that exam that you have in school, three weeks from now?
These three tasks have at least one important thing in common - they become sooo much easier to achieve if you know how to maximize your own productivity. Productivity is defined as the ratio between output and input, and I will assume that you want to generate as much output as possible for a given timeframe - a few weeks, months, or perhaps even years. In this video, we shall have a look at five different types of activities, in something that I will refer to as the hierarchy of productivity, and find out how moving between these will help you in boosting your output over a given timeframe tremendously.

My goal with this channel is to help you make more money and improve your personal finances. How to become a millionaire? There are many ways to get there - investing in the stock market, becoming a stock trader, doing real estate investing, or why not becoming an entrepreneur? But whether you are interested in how to invest in stocks or investing strategies for creating passive income with rental properties - I hope to be able to provide you with a solution (or at least an idea) here. Warren Buffett - the greatest investor of our time - says that you should fill your mind with competing ideas and then see what makes sense to you. This channel is about filling your mind with those ideas. And in the process - upgrading your money-making toolbox.
I hope you are super proud of the work you do for your channel. Yours is undoubtedly my favourite on RUclips. Just wanted to reach out and say congrats on all the success you've had and i hope much more comes your way as a result of all your hard work. This video is a step in a new direction for you and i think its fantastic, great job, i cant wait to see what you do next.
I second that+
Second that too!! Well said!! Love the channel and the videos!
My favourite channel on RUclips! Thanks for all!
I don't have enough words to thank you for the content that you create for us. It's so valuable. Hope you achieve a lot of success with whatever you do.
My psychologist said to me (since I have a very high natural output of effort) that the amount of productivity you get at either end of the scale, call it 1-10, is relatively small compared to the production you get at the middle. Almost like a bell shaped curve. I find that since I am a naturally high functioning person, I have learned to give myself some leniency in this regard. It does more harm than good in my opinion to over-do it. If you can give yourself the time and space to do things when you want (while maintaining a reasonable amount of discipline of course), then you will naturally get quite a lot done, and actually want to do what you are doing, and therefore get the most out of it. This applies particularly well in my case for studying. Your videos have been an excellent resource for me to tidy up my personal finances as well as starting to foster better life habits. Thanks a bunch :)
My best business ideas have come from the break activity 'going to a country you've never been before' so I'd definitely say that for me it has had a direct impact on my productivity
Being addicted to watching The Swedish Channel on RUclips is a timesink as it is one form of wasting time on social media.
Funny enough, I was having a conversation with "myself" today about why I felt more productive when I stopped playing videogames for a couple of months. I was motivated to read more and being productive. You're video seems to hit it on the nail. Thanks Erik!
Did went back to playing a bit?
@@alsparkproductions7849 noup hahaha. I’d love to but having a 9-5 job, creating a business with my partner and recording videos for my YT channel take all of my time 😜
If this Channel was a stock I would have definitely invested in it! An absolute 1000x Bagger Nano Cap.
Me: watching a video on productiviy while procrastinating.
in the "break" category.
This might be the leverage that you need
4 hours of sharpening the ax should do it
This is a fantastic video! It worth seeing it more time. Great job! Love it. Thanks.
Excellent as always👌.
Thank you for in-depth knowledge on productivity.
Very helpful. Even RUclips shorts are timesinks.
I really appreciate your videos, this one is great just as a lot of them are!
Thanks you!
Outstanding work, thank you!
Great video... I find myself getting frustrated at myself for having a hard time getting out of the Break/Timesink stage... I personally do short bursts of really high productivity, take breaks, come back and wrap up over time... But I do not love this method, and it causes me a lot of anxiety because the work is not really done until the last minute or close too, but it is generally good quality. I also feel like procrastination is a big contributor.. And something that is very hard to get over.
Excellent as always. Thank you!
This video is awesome! have shared the point clearly!
Great video!
During my years as a teenager, I used to spend countless hours on video games.
There was little motivation or interest in the outside world.
The moment I got naturally interested in one topic and then in another, the timesink part of my life reduced (and quickly). The motivation started to build up even more as the first signs of progress appeared.
Now I try to avoid any topics that naturally are of no interest to me. I found natural interest as the only long-term motivator. That's one of the reason that I am not doing things for money more than I have to. I just cannot do something I am content with or receive pleasure from doing it, if it is outside of my interest zone. Whenever there is a purely outcome-oriented endeavor such as making money or publishing a new web project, I feel like "yeah, but I cannot do it for long, if there is nothing interesting in it". Maybe that's the primary reason for why we suck at work/project if we don't get the interest to move us up the ladder described in a video.
Superb video! One of the best ive seen recently. 👍
RuneScape is my timesink and I'm not afraid to admit it

Thanks Erik! Great video, as always! 🍀✌🏻👏🏻
Here we probably view productivity in the way of contributing to society through investing but to some its completely different. So you could argue its an opinion and therefore the hierarchy changes (e.g. output is being a great gamer). But still great video as always 😀
If you saw the video at 10:58, he talks about it. The whole video is directed towards investing mindset people but if your end goal is to be a gamer then you can remove it from the timesink.
Your concept is awsome. Keep it up 🔥
I want to add that watching this video is a support activity :)
Timesink diagrammet var spot on, snyggt illustrerat.
Well this video served me as a support, a break, and a timesink all in one so I guess I'm ready to get back to work now!
Thanks for sharing this concept.
Might I make one suggestion? Leverage is a word in business associated with debt; maybe not the best word for your concept?
I prefer to put the word "marketing" in that top spot. Think about it?
I was super productive watching this at 2x speed, thank you
Great minds think alike
Great visualizations. Appreciate all your videos. Have a good one!
I have just found your channel and it’s smazing, great quality, knowledge and entertainment. And also I am quite like you. I am studying Industrial Engineering, only watch movies that have 8 or more in IMDB, love travelling, gym rat…
I would like if you could make a video about Industrial Engineering or about Engineering in general, but I don’t know how it could fit in your channel.
Thanks anyways and continue like this, I am recommending you to every single one of my friends.. Cheers !

Honestly a helpful video. I love your way of looking at the subject of productivity. Maybe because I love intelligent people who agree with me XD
Watching these videos on RUclips is not a time sync good sir ;D
Great video clip
Very good video.
Happy New Year 🎊🎊🎊🎊
Great channel mate, really. I wonder what program or site do you use to prepare these types of videos?
I’ve been watching your channel forever. Can’t believe I wasn’t subbed. Mb
Great Video, Mate!
Industrial Engineer! Makes sense now mate :)
Thank you for yet another excellent video!
Hey i really wanted to ask you something i read in your bio that you have read 100 books about investing would you do a top 10 ? or tell us whats a good book to start with ? Can i find what books you have read anywhere? i would really love to be able to read all of them as well. Ps i just saw that you made a video about the top 7 books
Thanks a lot.
You made me learn a great Concept.👍
super!
Hi, just wanted to say that your work is incredible and Im a huge fan. What software you use to make the doodle videos?
I'd probably put sport activities in the support activities
Leverage is the key
Hey, did you design by yourself all those stickers and nice cliparts?
I wanted to do a channel very similar to yours but only for the italian community, trying to inspire people by sharing stories of great investors. So I was wondering where I could get those designs and if you encounter any copyright problems and how you solved them.
😁
Thanks and Keep up the great work!
Hello there! A simple thanks would be an understatement for thy contributions to the rookies and the confused.
Could thee please throw clarity on the difference between exercising under the SUPPORT Category & powerlifting under the BREAK Category.
Doesn't powerlifting qualify as an exercise 😐
Hey Arulius Savio! Cheers for the support. It's a good question and I realize that I should have clarified that more in the video. Exercising to a certain degree, no matter the type of exercise, although some cardio is arguably more efficient than other types, will bring health benefits that will allow you to keep up your primary grind in the long run. However, this effect is tapering off quite rapidly with the amount of exercise. If you try to compete in a sport at a higher level, sure, it will give you the health effects, but it will also steal from your energy levels and your focus. There aren't many successful businesspeople who are also really competitive in a sport (in case they didn't build a business based on their sport, of course). Hope that makes sense and that it helps.
@@TheSwedishInvestor Many thanks for thy reply! Taking a screenshot to savour this moment.
"Rewatching the same movie comes with some diminishing returns."
Me watching The Dark Knight for the 85th time:
I think some people misunderstood the "leverage" part... it isn't about just hiring other people. If I buy a better machine for farming or improve my workflow at a factory, these are all "leverage." I get more for the same effort/time.
Even knowledge gained from 'support'.
I am also more productive, when I don't play, but I also have to turn off youtube and twitch.
When I'm at my village, where there is no internet and tv is limited, I usually read a lot of pages.
I also find time for work in the garden and at the end of the day, I don't feel like I wasted my day,
like when I have played video games or watched videos.
Can you elaborate how you got off games and other distractions, while they are easily accessible?
Dont download them or remove from pc
Don't make them accessible.
Unplug it and put it in a different room.
Read atomic habits by James clear
A concise and excellent clip. It saves the time wasted to read self-development books.
love it
Wow, is this your first original (non book-based) video? Pretty great!
Hey MultiMacsek, cheers for that 🌟 It's probably the first where I've in some way "invented" a concept. Lots of it is of course stolen from other concepts and ideas, but this particular framework I don't think I've seen elsewhere.
excellent channel really loving the content. however I disagree with exercising and sports being a break activity. taking care of your health is the most important thing, without which you cannot accomplish any of the other higher priority tasks mentioned in the video to its full potential
I like the model on the whole. But the break section is definitely not correct as far as I'm concerned.
I am building a startup and breaks really help me relax, recharge and some of my best ideas come when I am truly free on holiday. When you really push your productivity in places where your comfort zone is expanding the stress will really build and force you to relax and take breaks at some point.
Hey pudicio! It's a good point about indirect consequences of being involved in these types of activities. Hard to measure, but still important. My brother says that he judges "breaks" by the amount of inspiration he expects to get out of them, which I think makes sense and is aligned with what you are pointing towards here. I often get a lot of inspiration and ideas when I'm solely focusing on one thing, such as new content for videos or doing research on stocks. My "epiphanies" often come when I'm really deep into these things, but I guess we all work a little bit differently. Cheers!
amazing
which book
7:12 Most important message of the video: IKEA makes meatballs!
Hi swedish investor, any chance of summing up business adventure by john c brooks? Thx
👍
Can u do a summary on the book "Value investing from Graham to Buffet and beyond" by Bruce C N. greenwald, Judd Kahn, Paul D. Sonkin & Michael van Biema? Thank you ❤️
Another great video!
Extremely important video!
Thank you very much :)
gold content!
Why is power lifting not support?
Can you do a summary on rule 1 by phil town
The support, break, and time sink are actually much more connected. The dopamine-repeatability graph needs to include "indirect utility" from the support category. Powerlifting is among the best activities to regulate mood, improve sleep, also improve cognitive performance. In this 3D plot repeatability needs to be replaced with "time spent per week (or month)".
