Ok I love your videos
Well done . most people know these habits , but you focused so much in detail,question ? . You make everything more visible.
Then you have kids, then this and every type of these BS videos go right out the window
I'd suggest that weekly meal prep and laundry be added to this list.
No Sunday its holly day you should pray
Oh, heck yeah! Those are the two that throw a wrench into plans….or non plans. 9:00 pm getting ready for bed, “I’m out of underwear (or my lucky shirt isn’t ironed, etc.) and have 6 am meeting!….😩
@@robak818181 Depends on the cult you follow; different cult, different "holly"day.
I have two kids under 3 and I do laundry every day... lol. But meal prep I agree with 100%.
@@BubbaSmurft Hey, I’ll do a holly day if I can get out of laundry on it lol. But we’re just being mean. Good for Rjm. Everyone should set aside one day to do nothing.
1. Review your big goals for your life, year, season
2. Plan your week, blocking out your higher-energy time for what matters most. Prioritize what practices keep you productive.
3. Review what went well last week. Observe what to learn from when you fell short.
4. Journal your worries (they are parasitic energy-drainers) and ideas.
5. Learn. It is compounding interest, a great return on investment. Books including audio, podcasts, longer YT vids, all sources of brilliant info. Doesn't do any good to be really skilled in building great roads that lead the wrong way.
It isn't correct and misleading in relation to this video.
- The first habit is about setting goals for the week ahead based on big goals, not just reviewing them.
- There is not a word in the second habit about prioritizing practices that keep you productive.
- The fifth habit is about reading, not learning in general.
Twisting....
@@fedorpashin Thank you. I was going to just scan the tips listed above. But based on your clarification, I watched the whole video and of course got a lot more out of it .
My sunday reset...
1. 1 hour of cleaning with hubby and kids. Everyone washes their own bedding. One person meal preps, one vacuums, one dusts and one picks up stuff and puts it away. I water my plants and clean my animals bowls and litter boxes. It feels so good to have food prepped and a clean house to start the work week.
2. 1 hour to write out lesson plans (we homeschool), plan out the work week, journal my thoughts, write down a list of to do and balance my budget.
3. Spend time reading and spend time with family.
4. Quick clean out the car and my purse. Staying clean and organized helps so much.
5. Decide when is the best time that week to make contact with family and friends. I schedule a time to make phone calls so that the rest of the week I can turn my ringer down and truly focus.
6. Self care. I try to do 1 thing for myself. Bubble bath, paint my nails or whatever. It's my Momma break lol
Sounds perfect!👍👍
I have been doing these things for years but on Fridays. I blocked out time to do "meetings with myself" and I can say it's very effective.
Me too for me this ME time is very therapatic
Good job Alex!!!
Someone at work calls it "Life Administration"
Meeting with myself are so effective!! I do that in my car. I must look like a fool, like "Ok, so today we'll talk about blablabla" but it worth it hahahah
Aka a to-do list.
I noticed that a bunch of good habits starting forming once I started working out in the morning everyday, I started going to bed earlier, started eating better and I've been better at talking myself through stuff that's hard, ive learned to love myself and my body....didn't think all of that would happen but priorities started changing but in the best way possible
Change is hard! I’m happy you are making good progress.
Good for you. When I was younger and had a body with almost no injuries. I used to love to get up at the crack of dawn and go for a run no matter what the weather was, in a sweatshirt and a pair of running shorts. You can't really run much in sweats, those are for after runs so you don't get sick, not during the run. Even in the winter you are sweating and generating a ton of heat, which has to be expelled even during the winter. This really changes a person's life very quickly. Sadly my running days are gone for good these days. I can still walk though and do a few other things. This is good too.
Yes, I found the same to be true for me, a lot of things start to change for the better, mental and physical, with this one consistent habit. It's almost miraculous.
Relatable; I messed up my wrists and caught COVID this year, and those two things combined inspired me to start taking better care of my body. After just a few months of working out at age 28 I can finally say that I like the person that I am.
it feels sooooooooooooooooooooooooo good honestly.
My Sunday starts with Church,and thanking God for my life. After that,all things fall into place.
Thanks for writing this!
I do the same 😇
Love this ❤
This popped up as I was lying on the couch, internally complaining that I had to get moving. #thankyou
🏃♂️
Move on Man , Nice Sunday 🙂📝 .
Lol
I have my daily do list. Simple things like make the bed, clean my place, eat an apple a day, listen to positive videos like this, have a small piece of dark chocolate, and read at least 10 pages a day. There are more and it takes Discipline to be consistent. The big thing is to avoid distractions, mine being Netflix. Life is about balance!
Netflix and YT are my kryptonite
I would suggest church, worship, prayer, bible reading, and rest. That has been my Sunday for decades and I am extremely blessed.
Same, only I do all that on the Sabbath.
@@marciamcgrath6580 Shabbat shalom!
bless
Meta-tip to make these tips easier: Find a planner that works well with the way you operate, and use it religiously. I like physical planners, because the physical act of writing in them feels good and sticks in my brain better, but plenty of people swear by digital planners. Regardless of the medium, there are dozens of options to choose from; try experimenting with different features to see what you really value in a good planner, and make that planner your best friend. I like something with a lot of structure to give me places to start from, but others like something more free-form, like a bullet journal or even an entirely blank notebook. Choose whatever will make you more likely to use a planner at all.
I set a reminder for myself at 5am every Sunday morning to set goals for the week after watching this video. I am fairly successful but think this could really be a benefit in clarifying the best way forward for an ADHD adult like myself.
Sunday morning I do like every morning! I wake up praising the one who woke me up & watched over me all night long! I make coffee & go on my knees & pray! I get ready for church! After church I feel motivated to tackle the wk! I've been Blessed & Highly Favored! The LORD has done great things for me! I have had to block relatives & others from calling & asking for what GOD had blessed me with! They don't want to do what it takes to get my size blessing, but it's I'm supposed to take care of the world! Ain't happening!!!
Did he mostly bless you with a stuck exclamation mark key?
You know what? You have your priorities straight. You are grateful for that you have and have accomplished and keep your relationship with God strong instead of putting it all on saying it's you. That's inspiring and I really appreciate your comment. 🙂
Thanks again for another simple and insightful planning system. It reminds of the old saying, “Failing to plan is planning to fail.”
got this on a Sunday as I was lying in bed scrolling through youtube. Truly a blessing
Same
Reviewing the previous week and journaling are the best!
True2
These are effective ways to be more productive, once you know how you feel about things. You actually have something in your mind you desire etc. Oftentimes it turns out the thing you thought you wanted brings lots more negative than positive effects into your life and you have to abandon it. Then all the steps you took to achieve it will be in vain. I'm only saying that be mindful and thoughtful when deciding what you want to achieve. Listen to your inner voice and your moral compass.
These tasks will definitely help me to be more productive even on Sunday. Thank you very much for this!
Great info and ideas. I used to write down my goals each Sunday night for three areas of my life: work, home, and self. Maybe I will try that again!
That's a great tip that wasn't mentioned, thanks for sharing

*THE 80/20 RULE:* _80% of your life results will come from the 20% of the actions you do._
These 20% (the 5 habits): journalling🖋, reflecting🤔, planning your weeks🗓, reading📚, etc.
I beg to differ. While useful tools to focus on goals, journaling, reflecting, planning, and reading are not actions that lead to massive results. It’s the actual steps done that achieve results. Believe me, there are plenty of procrastinators journaling, planning, reflecting, and reading but not actually doing.
lol etc? couldn't be bothered to follow through with that fifth habit eh?
Wrong. The 80/20 rule is that 80% of return on any one goal / skill being learned comes from 20% time and effort and further the latter 20% of return takes 80% time and effort. Known commonly by a "learning curve" and diminishing returns on time invested for results expected.
I read my bible everyday and it is astonishing how much wisdom, care, and even knowledge that I have now that I spend that critical non negotiable time in it everyday. If there is one Book I recommend, it’s the Bible. It will change your life forever. The fear of the Lord is truly the beginning of knowledge and understanding! It helps me to read other books more effectively too.
I love your channel! It’s really inspiring me to get going! Thank you 👍🏼

Hi There, I enjoy your videos. They help me a lot and I have been using my Sunday to plan the week ahead. I feel more productive and achieve more than I used to. Thank you for creating this content. Jarod, Canberra Australia.
"Now do it!" YES!
Through my 20s and 30s I would be a slug on Saturdays, then race around doing 500 things on Sunday and go to bed exhausted, dreading the upcoming week. One Sunday, the often-heard sermon about keeping Sundays as a day of rest finally sunk in. I immediately switched to getting everything done on Saturdays, and leaving Sundays to actually do as God asks. Rest. I don’t work, I don’t shop or run errands. I only clean what is necessary for the day (dishes). I spend time with family, I watch tv or play games, I practice piano, read, nap, etc. (things exactly like this video suggests). I couldn’t believe the difference it made to my whole week. I may not run into Mondays with enthusiasm, but I don’t start off the week too tired to think of anything but Friday. The energy I build up on Sunday prepares me for the week. It’s almost like God knew what He was talking about! 😉
I love this, you’re so right!!
It’s awesome you make genuine content others can better themselves with!
Sunday can be a good time to plan the next week! It does help to be productive.
Yeppp, definitely
This is a great summary, thank you!
Thank you ❤️ I also think about it ❤️
Good habits
1st review past weak ❤️
2 build a goals for next weak ❤️
5 reading at least
5 minutes' a day ❤️
Bring lots of change ❤️
this gave me clarity! thank you!
This channel has become my guide.❤️
I just watched this, on a Sunday morning and I am adjusting my routine. I did plan my week around three priorities, but I have been lazy about journaling and about reviewing.
Maybe try journaling on your phone, use the microphone to text instead of actually typing for faster results or do voice recordings….I type things down in my phone’s notes then write them down on a notebook when I have the chance
Happy Sunday CD! Hope your Sunday planning practice is effective. What challenges have you faced in creating a productivity practice? Me? Distraction and, lol, more distractions. Focus is a tough discipline.
this was so interesting! thank you for this :)
Thank you.
Your videos are all excellent. Thank you.
Excellent I need this 🙏🏻thanks
Amazing list of productivity tips! Thanks for sharing and beautiful editing.
Coincidently, I watched this on Sunday. :D
#thankyou! It worked!!!
This is great! Thank you!
Thank you so much
I've been doing it on Fridays since a few years ago, especially points 1, 2 and 3. For point 4 I do it every night when I'm going to sleep. thank you for sharing & knowledge, very useful
EXCELLENT VIDEO THANKS
I just got myself a Clever Fox planner and love it. Ended up getting 2. One for weekly over the course of a year and one that is daily and spans 3 months. Both of them have spaces for literally *all* of what is suggested in this video. I already feel, as I've been filling it out, that this is really going to help me in the coming year in a way no other planner I've tried before has. And I'm a planner girl lol. I never wanted to take the time to consider all of these things, but once I did, it was an empowering feeling.
I've never heard of clever fox but the name is great. I love you your idea of a weekly and a daily! Way to think outside the box to develop a workable system for yourself!! I'm still searching for the right fit. May try the weekly +daily. So clever!!
I think that is the way to go. Will start with the Clever Fox ones and then I can always make my own later if I need to tweak the sections, etc. Did you go with the dated or undated versions? I've heard pros & cons to both as to the journal's overall layout. How have they been working for you over the last 11 months?
It has taken a year to get myself to even begin my improvement journey. And, of course there are still many bumps in my road, as I started using my energy bursts to get the momentum going. I am aware that to have long term success, I need to get this momentum to turn into consistency. I have been using a set of RUclipsrs to help me in this journey, and i subscribed to The Art of Improvement a long time ago, i just didn't know where to fit this specific type knowledge into my life. I am currently stuck in prioritizing my next steps to make a big decision, i have analysis paralysis and i just want to go back to my project and start all over again, i even forget the point of wanting to start this project. And here i am, this is the reframing i needed to organize my upcoming week and get the ball rolling again. It really is all about keeping a record of your progress and organizing your life into small steps and putting one foot in front of the other. Also knowing how to get out of a rut, which will be inevitable. Thank you Art of Improvement, i hope anybody watching can find a place to take this knowledge for a test drive. Big hug from Halifax, NS, Canada
Just wanted to send you a big hug 🤗 your words are very relatable!
These 5 habits are so well know and really every famous person do so but still I am unable to master it even it's so easy!! I will write it up to my bed and hopefully step by step I will do it .. looking for thank you so much for this video ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 😊
I have a daily chart for daily things I need to do. It helps keeps me organized.
Good habits to pick up to be more productive. 👍
Thankyou very much for making this
Thank you so much for your powerful presentations. They are very content-dense, specific, concise, and clear. Truly outstanding and any one of them could be a life-changer for someone who followed it carefully and consistently.
Totally agree. It takes so little to be above average.
I already do the 1st 3 now I just gotta incorporate journaling and reading into my weekends.😁
I just started journaling a few months ago, and I can't believe the clarity that comes with it. It's like the creativity starts to flow after I've been writing for about 10 minutes. And I do it first thing in the morning. It's like my brain was working on ideas during my sleep, and they come tumbling out on the paper as I write. It's been incredible. Give it a try! You'll be amazed!
Number one going to church and getting your priorities in proper place for the week ahead
1.set your goals
The key is to set your long term goals as well as short term goals. Break big goals into precise weekly or even daily tasks that you can take action right away.
2.plan the upcoming week
This is to make tasks clarified and to make sure you make good use of time instead of wasting it
3.reviewing the previous week
By this way, you can reflect on yourself on what/who/how made you less productive or more productive. I am thinking to add something/someone that you are grateful for.
4.journaling
Dump ideas or thought onto papers makes you "clean" the brain and sometimes make you think clearly and inspire new ideas（that's the case for me）
5.reading
As the old saying “Knowledge is power”, reading is the essential way to gain it. In my case, reading did changed my life throughoutly.
Fortunately I have been doing these five habits already :)
Great stuff, many thanks...
These are great ideas
Very interesting. I will ponder.
Excellent video!
I feel like this is good for your mental health too!
Thanks for the video! To save you others some time typing:
Did I achieve my weekly goals? If not, why? If yes, what went well?
What activities / products / people / actions have contributed to the majority of my results over the past week?
What efforts / activities / products / people have consumed my energy but didn't lead to a lot of results?
What could I have done better in order to be more productive and focused?
What habits have been essential to my happiness, productivity, focus and energy?
What were the blind spots and unforeseen events that happened that I should learn from?
thanks so much! really helps alot
Thank you very much
Good post
I love the weekly goals ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! I always gain insights and wisdom from your videos!
Thank you, Paula. I'm glad they are helpful!
OMG! Im already doing all of it! Its Sunday today..I started reading again a few mths ago every day..The odd day missed due to busy life. Always had a weekly to do list but not micro goals..So just gotta do that..
Blank weekly calendar: Tracking numbers.
Fridge calendar: Meal planning and inventory.
Clipboard and binder clips: Organize things.
Power Thank y for the video
Great ideas, I draw every day in the mornings before my work, I know I need to set small weekly creative goals to level up my art business etc
As monetising art or anything creative is extremely hard, I am going to screen shot these 5 things and start taking action ! Thanks mate
Brilliant idea, however, penning them down with your own hand will do more good mate👍
Thanks!
Awesome video!
There seems to be some value judgment attached to highly productive.... I don't want to be highly productive, the life I deserve isn't one where I'm on the go all the time!
*Reflecting on your life every week is SUUUPER effective.* Speaking from experience💪🏻
*At least 30 mins every sunday to just reflect and set goals for improvement will go a loong way.*👌🏻
I do all of these things as well. Mostly I do them on a Friday. The other thing that I do is I do not waffle on talking continuously just to hear my own voice. I say what I have to say and then I’m done. If there are questions I answer them but I do not go on and on.
Great video thanks
Procrastination is a killer!
Will start doing this.
I do think , to prevent burn outs is to take a rest in the weekend .
All the tips you see in this vid can take maybe one hour in the weekend.
Believe me, been there done that
The most difficult part is starting
As a solar D2D rep, this can’t be more accurate of how the top people in the industry do it!
Great video! 😀
I've been so busy with my daughter for the last 19 months, I haven't read a book since. I'm looking forward to getting back to my book a month.
I remember being in this situation when my kids were little, until I discovered audiobooks. Get yourself a pair of wireless headphones, and you can read while preparing your daughter food, driving her places, all sorts of situations. One warning: the headphones make it easy and pleasant to disengage from your family at times when you should probably be leaning in, so give some thought to when you want to use them, and when you want to block out time to focus on interacting with your daughter. Hope this helps!
@@janekalmes im impressed by your creativity Jane :) great idea for those who can't find time to read.
I consistently have strategic and creative thoughts and ideas when doing "chores" such as laundry and hand-washing the dishes...Really, there are very few reasonable excuses not to incorporate at least a part of these suggestions weekly if not daily.
Same here. I have learned to keep a small pad of paper and a pen in my apron pocket so I can write the ideas down as i have them. Otherwise, by the time I locate paper/pen, I've forgotten the idea!!
Thanks
Love!
I'm trying out the 80/20 Rule for my goals, bc, ya know....LIFE.....and I was Blessed with BOTH ADHD and OCD 🤦♀️🙄🤣
Even some of the biggest billionaires have them too
@@othmane-mezian Yeah, I know... However, being my dad's Caregiver and having 2 teenagers, I tend to get in a Very long rut sometimes. I hate it. But.... I know I'm where I'm Supposed to be right now, in my life.... sigh....
I got ADHD as well, I find that journaling and writing a plan for each aspect of my life helps a lot. Tracking what I eat, what I do that brings me closer to my goals, having a physical to do lists so I don’t forget, calendars are underrated and so helpful
@@MrSprenkelz I journal, keep a Caregiver journal, 2 daily task personal calendars, and a calendar for appointments only. I write almost everything down, whether I want to or not. But if I get in a rut of mine, NONE of that is helpful at that particular moment.... I'll be the FIRST to admit that I am as stubborn as a mule and as hard headed as they come... That runs in my family 😁
However, when I am not not in a rut or "Short on my Spoons" (a Spoonie), I DO my best to work on a chore or small project that given day.
@@jayme3557 I kept a 'caregiver' journal for 2+ years. It is over 300 pages, single spaced. It was my therapy and I am so glad I did it. It ended, 13 years ago.... However, I still have it and i read parts of it occasionally, I do gain strength from it.
Okay... Thanks!
I try to do all these items any time I have free time. But it is good to have a set day to create these habits.
I only did one thing on my list yesterday ( Sunday in Australia) spent most of the day researching organisers 🤣 I decided on the supernote
Works great
I like to read and sleep on Sundays. It’s nice.
journaling should happen every night. reading every day.
The laundry and meal-prep suggestions are much more practical. These make it seem as if the purpose of life is to "produce." Not everyone desires to run his life like a Ford factory....
This should be prefaced as aimed at the small sector of the workforce who have significant autonomy in the workplace
I thought this too. I don't have complete control over my life, in fact, I have little control over my life. I can't plan my week out, because it depends how and what work I have to do the next week. I don't decide that.
@@gusgrizzel8397 yes, I'm sick of this one-eyed stuff. 'Isn't it great that EVERYONE can work from home now?' 'AI is going to liberate everyone in repetitive (low skilled?) jobs so that they can all do higher value work'. Some folks live in a bubble but can't see it
awesome video
These are all good, but I would humbly add prayer, both personal and within a faith community. Many people are hell bent on success, but in the end, have no idea what they really succeeded in doing or being. Prayer brings us outside of ourselves in harmony with a loving creator that gives not just happiness, but meaning.
The best video I've ever seen.
