The "four burners" idea has been around for years, and I'm not even sure where I heard about it. But my friend Sean McCabe has a podcast episode that dives deeper into it: seanwes.com/la...

“You can do ANYthing, but you can’t do EVERYthing.”
“Choose what you want to grow.”
Prioritize and execute, get out there and do the work!
Essentialism gang
Alex Gubar start with the big things or you’ll never fit them in. Life is far too short for only doing what is essential. Take breaks, turn up the burner on hobbies, creativity, and vacation. Start with work though, and focus to get in and get out. Money is a tool to do the rest, and work and service is the rent we pay to others for our time here.
Your discipline is a garden.
Build the discipline that feeds you what you need whatever the weather.
The acceleration addiction is so real!
🔆 Notes
1. Create obligations
2. Identify negative external factors and figure out what truly makes you happy and focus on the latter
3. Work intensely. Cut out low value activities
Thank you
Thanks for sharing your notes!
why the hell don't they make time stamps!?
Thomas: 1% improvements, small steps
Also thomas: video quality already exceeds that of some hollywood feature films and gets 100% better each time.
Sara Jamous 1% a day makes 365% a year, means 1000% in less than 3 years 😅 Consistence. Especially in filmmaking and creative fields. 😄
@@chrisbackstage not 351%
1% more today is actually 1% of 101% yesterday.
@@chrisbackstage I don't think that's how percentages work but at least the idea comes across clearly.
his skills improved extremely! but in this topic, idk felt like he rushed through the topic. it was too fast for me ^^‘
It's actually somewhere around 33% each year, read that in atomic habits
Thomas’s mom: Thomas go play outside.
Thomas: takes Xbox outside.
Chasing Obstacles *Switch
Hahahhahahahah
Outstanding move
Well he did have that big monitor in the yard.
hahahahahaha
Illegitimate sources of pressure are the worst :P
Hey Ali I love your content
Oh hi
:D :D
What is this? A crossover episode?
@@lionfelidae7698 *THANK YOU FOR POINTING THAT OUT*
3 habits for better work-life balance
1. create obligations to improve after your every work
give time for your hobbies to release stress (1:38)
2. list out what you truly enjoy doing (7:29)
3. work intensely with purpose (9:46)
You've definitely improved a lot since I started watching you a few years back. Love your content!
What about you 😂
Ikr
lovin this "I'm not your dad" new phase
he could be my daddy tho
@@igor-yp1xv LOL....I feel the same way!
That metaphor though: mindlessly scrolling on social media doesn't fall into one of the burners (work, health, relationships, hobbies), it's more like poking a hole in the gasline.
I mean there's a LOT of things that are the equivalent of poking holes in the gasline. But the wording of that just made my brain pull an AHA moment.
SAME
Same!
Is no one going to mention Thomas’ haircut? Looks great on him.
That is what I was about to say. Haha. Really elegant and professional but really cool though.
Tom obviously mastered the new skill of haircutting during quarantine, guys
I liked this comment before he even came on screen. I had faith in Thomas’s haircut choice, and in his viewer’s ability to know good taste.
Oh my....yes...looks awesome!!
Omg. Yea!! Noticed it when I saw your comment. 😄
This video actually helped me realise my acceleration addiction, I was trying to study in advance my college material and realised i was getting depressed when my pace wasn't as fast as I wanted it to be, thanks Thomas, you really helped me🥰
@Eduardo Gobbo
Sometimes just doing something is enough to feel satisfaction because, with satisfaction comes open mindedness!!!
Here's my 1% Rule log for this video:
- Lots of effort put into the thumbnail's composition; it stitches multiple pictures together (see the process in the Production highlight reel on my Instagram profile: instagram.com/tomfrankly/ )
- Heavy, heavy sound design - made use of a lot of panning, reverb, and clip-specific EQ to achieve a better mix
- Learned how to create a rising number counter in After Effects, along with a manually-created LCD screen effect
- First use of a 360 camera
What is the 1% Rule? Essentially, it's the idea that you should aim to get 1% better with each piece of work you do, instead of pressuring yourself to create "perfect" work. Over time, these 1% improvements add up as long as you're consistent. More info, along with my journal for all videos, here: thomasjfrank.com/my-1-rule-journal/
P.S. - how balanced does your life feel to you right now?
You have an extra parenthesis at the end of your instagram URL ;)
I'm a pretty new viewer, so take this following criticism with a grain of salt, but your videos are better at 1.25x speed or more. (i.e., feel slow at normal speed) Great stuff though!
@@rusinsr Whoops - thank for letting me know!
Speed is probably the area where I'll never be able to please everyone; some people want it faster, some are non-native English speakers who would prefer me to speak even more slowly than I do.
This is exactly what I needed. An unknown fear of losing has made me push myself too hard for the past couple of weeks and I have hit a stone wall, a burnout. I should start worrying about my work alone and try to keep all the burners on in a balanced way. Thanks Tom!
Just an appreciation comment for all of your support into my life all these years with your videos. I started watching you when I was a freshman in 2017. Now I'm a graduate on my 2nd job and currently starting my own company, but specially a productivity machine always learning new things and trying to be my best self. Keep up the good work Thomas
Am i the only one who noticed that he was watching Nathaniel Drew's video? I love both of your channels @Thomas Frank and @Nathaniel Drew! Keep it up!
9:50 "The value of time isn’t determined solely by the amount of time itself, but also by the intensity and the strategic value of the effort that you exert during it."
Brilliant. Sometimes I already know what I should be doing, but I can't bring myself to commit to it. The way you word things brings a new way of thinking about common and consistent problems. This sort of mental trickery is exactly why I susbcribed.
Sweet shot at 7:55. I just ordered some inline skates (used to skate as a kid). Pretty excited!
I really like what you said about the fact that we have so many possibilities nowadays. I'm very thankful to live in an age with access to so many content and be privileged enough to be able to go after what interests me, but sometimes I do feel absolutely overwhelmed by the number of things I'd like to do. And even when I'm doing a lot of these things - things that I enjoy - it often feels like I did not do enough.
Thank you so much for this video, great content as usual.
I am amazed by how your videos got a lot better for the past 6 months (and started noticing it mostly after your burnout video). As someone that has watched your stuff for the past 5 years, I really appreciate that you're putting a lot of care in presenting your ideas more deeply and beautifully. And by the way, nice haircut!
Wow the 1% rule is no joke. I've been a subscriber for 3+ years now and your content has improved by HUGE margins. So happy to see your progress!
I'm proud of myself for absolutely quitting Instagram, I've never been this productive. And obviously Thomas's videos help heaps.
The irony of getting notifications from videos about not being distracted.
Thomas, I followed your videos like 2 or 3 years ago and there is so much improvement I can say I applied to my college life, now that I finished most of it just waiting for finishing my thesis!
I like your videos because they are simple, well scripted and you can see you are almost always pursuing getting better in your contents, and also for me, not a native English speaker, it is really good to hear you, because I am practicing all the time at the same time, I learn new vocabulary, phonetics, you are really good at intonation and you make yourself clear when you speak.
Just thank you, great man!
This editing is sick to be honest! :D
It's essential to keep a work-life balance! People have an inner drive to achieve and be productive but also have social needs a s well. Learning to balance the two ensures a more enriching and fulfilling life.
Thank you for a piece of wisdom.
I'm 25 and I'm glad I found it out not in old age.
the qualities of your videos just keep getting better it’s insane
Summary of the video (in detail)
1. Set obligations that help make the balance that you want to find, more achievable. So if you are trying to find the balance between the quality and quantity of RUclips videos, you want to set a deadline for when the video should be uploaded, but also strive to improve at least one aspect from the last one that was uploaded, which would be journaled. This idea can be utilized for any creation of art, video, or even a school project. A balance that would help with a social balance would be scheduling chat times ahead of time.
2. Identity negative external factors that often push you to be on the work burner. It’s easy to feel inadequate or feel that you’re not working hard enough with the presence superficial social media (Fomo, acceleration, jealousy) In the end, it’s important to realize the things that genuinely make you happy; the things that you enjoy the process of, instead of only the end result. Make a list and make the habit of reminding yourself of that list.
3. A lot of times, our energy is spent on zero of the main burners: work, health, relationships, and hobbies. Things put into this category for example would be: scrolling through your feed all day, internet browsing, etc. Ideally, you want to cut a good amount of the energy (not necessarily 100%) that may be in this category, because the four other burners are much more meaningful. Another thing that matters is this intensity of your work. You need to be as engaged in your task as you can possible, and this will be important in making any form of progress. Anything I missed?
Your videos are becoming more professional and mature looking over time. Additionally, it’s nice to see parts of your humour appear in B roll clips. I’m glad you were able to find an editor that understands and shares the same vision for each video. You allowed yourself to focus on research and script writing without a major concern for the editing of the final product. It is really tough to trust others, even with simple things, when one has perfectionist tendencies. Be proud :) And finally, thank you for sharing the process of how you made this thumbnail on Instagram.
Love that you focus on improving one thing in each video you create. This process will give marginal gains, which in the long term show huge results. I think I'll try and apply the same with my videos.
The quality of this video is amazing...I've watched a lot of your videos and over time you can definitely see how much you have improved film-making wise. The colour grading of this is beautiful
I’m just sitting here watching Netflix, while you are being hella productive 😂
Narrowing down your craft is a good one. I feel like I've been branching out too much and not really focusing much on what I'm already good at. Thanks for this video!
The increased production value on Thomas’ videos now compared to even a year ago is insane-absolutely impressive quality jump and doesn’t go unnoticed. Congratulations and keep it up!
Great practical advice.
1. Define the activities that truly make you happy.
2. Do whatever you need to do to remove lethargy from your activities.
3. Remove low impact activities that drain time (mindless surfing, binge watching)
Much respect to you talking about the vulnerabilities that you (and almost everyone) faced - jealousy, acceleration addiction, and attaching materialistic parameters to succes
This comments section is the complete opposite of most of youtube's comments sections and I'm living for it. You are really creating an awesome community here
I appreciate you doing a written version of this video. Since I am studying English and try to improve the language, have the written is not only another way for me to practice reading, but also to understand even more the message. I hope to see this more often.
I was literally just playing hollow knight on my switch and thinking "come on man, you have studying to do, midterms due tomorrow"... Now I'm here.
Good luck! Hope it went well
*This is the need of the hour. Thomas, you're always perfect! Thanks for everything!*
You telling that to a perfectionist 💀
I totally understand the Nathaniel reference. That man is wholly unique and I have to remind myself that I should approach that feeling with open appreciation instead of jealousy.
This is a fantastic video. I love how you talk about the importance of emotional health & being able to identify the things that come from external validation. Ur productivity tips have always been helpful but this is on a different level.
The problem with this sudden pandemic situation is that no one is prepared and most of people are not even trying to understand the situation.
Because when you know something is coming the best thing to do is try and understand what's coming because that way you will be able to position yourself to survive and also to benefit from it.
And also when there's crisis there's also opportunities.
Thank you for all your useful and helpful content 😊😊😊 I’ve been improving so much ~ since I knew your channel. I also get inspired to make a video with some content sharing like ya, thank you
From Vietnam 🤩
you right, I also improve myself pretty much, btw, keep it up your really good channel
It is an incredible video. When we get at least little bit conscious, we watch people, who encourage us to hard work (and only hard work). Later you realize that life is not only about work itself, and such videos are like gold since there are not so many of them compared to the motivational ones.
He is such a relatable person.
Work forcefully takes all my burners, but what pushes me to keep working is time. Many successful people say, “If you want to be successful. You have to make sacrifices.”
Great video! Really got a lot out of this! Thanks Thomas!
WOW! Every single video is making me productive by so much! Not to mention the production value makes it fun to watch... Your amazing! Thank you for helping others
Acceleration addiction. Wow, I didn’t know that weird thing that keeps me from really going hard on my goals right now IS REAL! It’s like a mental distraction you said it best; We can do ANYTHING so we fee like we’re even more pressured lol. This is very informative👍🏾. Thanks man!
Thank you much Thomas. These tips really helped. I’ve been struggling so much trying to a balance full time work 40 hours a week along with trying to have a social life and professional learning on top of that. I need to prioritise my health and do what I love. Thank you
1. I live for Thomas Frank telling me HE’S NOT MY DAD! 2. The quality of the videos over the YEARS that I’ve been a fan has increased so much I love it
Dude that transition to ad was real smooth. Took me a while to realise it.
TOM THIS IS ONE OF YOUR MOST PROFOUND VIDS
Loved the video! FYI, that’s not how gas burners work though. If turning the other three burners on affects the first one, something isn’t right with your supply or your appliance. I’ve been in that type of work for more than a decade and your work has helped me be much more productive! Love your channel!
The acceleration addiction is so real!
Notes
1. Create obligations
2. Identify negative external factors and figure out what truly makes you happy and focus on the latter
3. Work intensely. Cut out low value activities
Wow. Best video to date. You really hit the nail on the head with so many points that are often obvious or already said but rarely tied together and connected in a way that helps change a mindset rather than just a helpful tip. Super motivating and empowering dude, all the examples made me think of my own examples in my life which help me to care and understand even further. Been watching your channel for quite some time now and the constant improvements and reminders to be the best I can be and live the happiest life I can have really been my 1%s. Thank you so much.
Also great soundtrack, it really added to the experience.
This is QUALITY.
Like all your vehicles are.
Which is why I subscribed.
Finding balance is the secret for happiness.
The addiction to acceleration is so real!!!
it's hard.... but not impossible.
I feel productive just by watching your videos! Altho that may be counter productive i actually do learn a lot and feel more motivated! So thank youuu
Tom has a sense of insight like no other 10/10
i love your editing and comparison to make it more understandable
I'm in a really bad month in my life.I should study hard for an exam that is very important for me and I spend last two years of my life studying for that,but right now,I just don't have the motivation, I just can't study even for a couple hours.
I'm watching your videos that maybe they will help me.
Thomas, I've been your follower since 2018, and I just wanna say that 1% rule works perfectly. Quality of your videos
is growing exponentially
, keep it up, you rock man :D
This uploaded right after finishing my monthly time budget to make sure i have a healthy balance with everything thats important to me.
I love the editing you did for this video. Specifically the '80's era decor.
I found your channel 5 years ago and let me just say it has introduced me to so many awesome and inspirational people. Thank you so much for motivating me to keep improving. Keep it up!
The quality of the content is good!
And the actual quality (resolutions) is good too..
Love it.. 😃
Gym Twin I want the real information. How you out here with the fresh haircut?
Thomas : James Clear says
Ali : Our Boy James says
Hahahaha so true
this actually made me chuckle
I love how the burner is sunk up with when the burner turns on. Your 1% improvements are really showing!
Great content. The discussions are clear and it's not imposing. More of educational rather than coercive approach. Thanks for this 😎🤟
Nice haircut! And thank you as always! Realistic, practical and useful information.
I'm not first
I'm not last
But when Frank uploads
I CLICC FASST
LMAO same
😅😄
I work with Small Business Owners. For most of my clients, work-life balance is hard and the psychological burden can be intense. They have fewer resources to manage essential tasks and a finite amount of daily energy to manage them. I teach strategies for process development and delegation (when onboarding staff is a viable solution). Overall though, your business simply cannot override your self-care. When your business is your output, knowing what is worth committing your energy to is essential!

You are so good at this. Thank you for your insight.
May god bless your soul, mate. An amazing video. I'm watching it right now, but I will rewatch with my wife.
Sometimes I feel like I impose myself too many obligations I can't seem to ever catch up on them. Anyway thank you for this Tom... much needed reminders
I've been watching your channel for couple years now and this is the single best advice I have ever seen here. Good job!
Wow, that transition into the promotion for brilliant was impressive.
Thanks as always for this. As a fan for 4 years now I often know the right habits already but I tend to fall short. And I think because they do not address the things underneath -- lack of boundaries, fomo and self-worth. This video hits those things and hits the issues deeply as well. Thank you so much!
Thankyou .. loved the video.. particularly the example of burners
Wow Frank. This was very good. Thanks sharing the knowledge!
Schedule important personal activities.
Things such as exercise, date nights with a spouse and more can quickly fall by the wayside if they aren’t purposefully scheduled.
Without going into detail, this video is genuinely what I need right now. Thank you
Thanks for the wisdom Thomas!
yes inline skating is such a great way to relieve stress! especially learning ways to slide
4:10 Love the dedication to put the video games outside for the broll 🤣
Who else is watching this to be motivated and get their life back together?
Such cinematography, such metaphor, such fabulousness!
Between you and Joey (of Better Ideas) I have heard about Atomic Habits like five times now. About time to finish the audiobook!!
Very very good rendition of practical methods AND internal causes for not so rational pressures.
It's more important to work on those beliefs of not being good enough, capable or useful first.
No amount of information+motivation can be as effective as "unmounting" the beliefs that cause our undesirable patterns of behavior.
thank you for putting words to the key issues and giving methods for solving the problem that I did not even know I had.
Thank you for the great video Thomas! 😊
This is God Level Work Brother! Disciple!
Thank you. I'm watching this video in loop, it's mind blowing how the points listed are inner inserted in my daily routine.
Thank you
The lighting on your videos is awesome. It takes effort to make the picture look THAT good. Make a video on how you do your lighting! Please 😁
The video was great. The outtro was spectacular.
