I recommend reverse pomodoro, since pomodoro can actually ruin your productivity if you get into the flow. Reverse pomodoro is where you time yourself, and when you really start to lose focus, you take a break equal to 10%, 20% or whatever percent of the time you were focused.
Randomly came across your channel man and LOVE what you are putting out! I have already modified my phone screen with fewer distractions and will be implementing these too- thank you!
Happily buying the timer off your referral link. I’ve been looking for a physical pomodoro timer all week and none seemed right for me. This one looks perfect.
Don't take another pill if you are tired. When you are tired your body is pointing to the fact that you rest less than you should. Rest is most important for your health. Taking another pill might fool your mind for a period of time, but later you will have to pay a price for this "a pill for everything" mindset.
Hey man, just wanted to say that i love your content and you are my favourite creator at the moment, i watched your journal video and just bought one of the journals that you use, excited to use it. Thanks man
Thank you so much for sharing your strategies!😊 I appreciate how you explain your reasoning, experience and evidence in such a straightforward and accessible way. I've already added some of your previous advice into my routines and I have seen major improvement. Particularly the light exposure in the morning. Keep up the amazing work. You're gonna go far!🎉
This is so simple but actually works... "Distraction" also a simple "word" But for sure a lot of people get distracted when they should focus on the priority that they should have done
Regarding the kitchen lock box: What if there is an emergency and you have to call the ambulance or police? And especially then you maybe wouldn't be able to break the box.. sounds dangerous to me, wouldn't use it...
@@reysu I stopped watching shorts... it's been a long time and I always clear my history so I won't get a feed on utube I will watch what I search only u can do this too 🤍
Thank you for opening up your incredible smart and very beautiful mind to us! I appreciate every single video and I wished they got billions of views…that might change our distracted world 🙏 YOU ROCK 👍😊👍 Best wishes and regards from Germany to you 🤗
I also found and liked the Time Timer for about a year and a half until it no longer operated silently and the ticking became too distracting. Switched to the CDN digital timer/clock
Get a switchbot, get a sunlight therapy lamp. Automate it => Wake up without an alarm ;). You'll train your circadian rhythm. Especially, if you are prone to SAD or depresso espresso during the winter time.
Love the timer. Also didn’t know there was a combo caffeine and L-theanine. I like l-theanine but makes me tired so I usually pair with coffee. I’ll have to try these.
Yooo why is this guy grinding so hard? I was watching, and for a while a was like, “ok, maybe I need these things. Maybe I need to be more focused so I can be a well-oiled machine that can and will get everything a brilliant, healthy and successful human being hopes to ever do in one day done.’ And then I was like no, I don’t ever wanna grind that hard. It sounds exhausting. I guess that’s why I have time to watch RUclips videos high and comment on them.
I used to be caught in the self improvement cycle as well. All of these trivial tasks like cold showers, no fap, journaling, reading 1,000 self improvement books, etc.. Will not get you any closer to your hopes and dreams if you’re not directly taking action towards your goals. You just end up “productively” bullshitting.
I don't think I'm grinding hard, it's just the way I am lol. I never "hopped on self improvement" or whatever the trend is, I just always followed my interests. Why would you force yourself to do cold showers, no fap, journalling, or read 1000 self improvement books
Imagine being at home stoned and judging a guy who is happily giving out information and advice on what has worked for HIM! Maybe if you stopped smoking and watching RUclips (I use THC so not hating on it) you would see that he is not "grinding" he is simply living his life the way he wants and improving on things he believes he needs to be better at
@@connorfarrell2172 dude- read my reply to this guy. I’m not judging. You are. If you put yourself out there on RUclips, I think it’s only fair to expect a variety of opinions about the advice you share. A lifestyle that works for some people doesn’t work for everyone. I’m pretty successful in my career, but I know there are parts of the job and my life that I drop the ball on often. I’m just not wired to have the desire to make everything I do as efficient.
I used to work security years ago and that notepad thing is a real technique that people really use and it really works. The thing though, is that you might be writing random stuff on it, or you might actually be taking notes, the person on the other end doesn't have any way of knowing.
I recently stumbled across your channel @reysu, and I'm loving it! At 5:54 of the video, in your office there's an analog clock on the shelf, with the day & date. Can you provide more info as to where I can purchase the same?

I can't seem to find the Time Timer you have with the finger hole - even your link points to a different model and I can't find yours on their official site either.. What's the model #? I love how flat and one handed yours is
There's also a wrist watch version as well. I highly recommend it. When I was teaching, I used it in order to reduce my time blindness while working. It pretty much immediately improved the accuracy of my pacing and I didn't find myself wanting to go long or run short.
@@reysu i have glasses myself so i dont know how you are wearing them over the ones you already have? or you just remove your glasses? (btw I dont know if you reply everywhere but I loved your "How I Would Learn Japanese in One Year" video)
Sorry should have been a bit more specific. During e.g. the pomodoro part it was fine, but in the intro you were rattling it off so fast its was very hard to follow (at least for me, non native english speaker). @@reysu

that's interesting
I think pomodoro still has it's use though. Often I find it hard to even focus 25 mins, so forcing myself to do that much is needed
I've got to try that sounds genius.
This channel is example of random success on RUclips. It's perfect and why no views???!
help share it :)
I am glad that I found your channel. You have so many great tips beyond what I already do. Staying focused and on task isn’t easy. Thank you.
thank you! glad you found it valuable. Let me know if there are other topics you'd like me to make videos about
This is genuinely a great video. Why does it only have 16,000 views? This is very thoughtful and has a lot of substance.
Halfway through I thought the same thing, Legit useful.
I bought a few of these things. The little notebook + pen is my favorite thing. Thank you so so much!

I actually have automated my lights and phone/computer usage too, was just thinking of making a video sharing that set up ahaha

How does pomodoro collide with up the 23 min to refocus on a task?
Bro is pumping out content
Let's fking go
1:42 Modeled after Hot Fuzz? Subbed. Have you ever fired your gun up in the air and gone "ahhh"?
LOL

Awesome, thank you! Keep it up with the killer content!

Hey can you provide a list of the products? I can't find an amazon list in the description.
Just added to description! Sorry I forgot :(
I can't seem to find the Time Timer you have with the finger hole - even your link points to a different model and I can't find yours on their official site either.. What's the model #? I love how flat and one handed yours is
i loveyour vids man keep it up
thank you man
Gonna try some of these out 🙏
Which one are you going to get first?
Definitely want to try the visual timer first
Hey man - I saw that clock on your wall at 6:49 - which clock is that? I really want one on my wall that shows the seconds
Really nice suggestions! Do you have a link for the timer?
Time Timer: amzn.to/3rgmUd9
Sorry I forgot to add it to the description ahaha

thank you so much!
What kind of piano is that in the background?
Does the timer have a ticking sound when counting down?
Nope
watch everyone running to buy the timer after watching this video hahaha
1:13 tho soo good😋
Sankuuu
Ok the box but if I receive a call how I can use my phone?
You don't. Or, you break the box. If you're needing to be focused badly enough to put the phone in the box, then the phone call can wait.
Love your videos!
thank you for watching :)
if i tried locking my phone up for 5 minuets, would just pi$$ me off
That's why you probably need it. Just set it to 4 minutes and get used to that. Work your way up to something a bit more reasonably like an hour.
How was the Name of the Film Witz the Writeing Book?
