12:13 - The Biggest Benefit of This Notebook Productivity System
The concept of "productivity" is most often framed in the context of work or school, but ultimately, "productivity" means getting things you want or need to get done, efficiently, effectively, and to completion. To achieve your desired outcomes in all areas of life, both on a micro-level like a single project, or, on a macro-level like fostering a long-term relationship.
Over the past few years, I've honed this notebook productivity system, and I'd love to share the productivity tips and productivity hacks with you, along with why I believe a plain simple notebook is the ultimate tool for how to get what you want out of life.
Of course, I'm biased, but after a lot of time and thought over the past several years, this notebook productivity system is my Rosetta Stone that guides me through life... wow... that was lame and cheesy sounding... but I won't take it back because it's true. I welcome you to watch this video and, if you feel like it's not for you, to still consider honing and creating your own system to be more productive which will lead to greater happiness in your life. After all, aren't all of us to some degree or other always asking ourselves: "How to be happier"?
At the end of the day, I just know that there are things I need to accomplish, and things I want to accomplish, so I'm all ears when it comes to figuring out how to get things done, and beyond that, how to get more done in a day... every day.
If you have any tips on what works for you to be more productive, whether it involves a notebook, app, or anything else, I'd love to know in the comments!

Fantastic natural voice. You should be a book reader. No yelling. No ra, ra. No elocution. Just a warm, engaging welcome to your world. This natural and instinctive vocal intimacy is exactly what readers need.
What a bril, intelligent observation! 😍👍 Today's trend is the NOISY inFLUencers' shouting = 80% of RUclipsrs 🤣
I think you mean that he has excellent elocution rather than no elocution, which would be the complete opposite of your overall message.
@@addisonroux4417 yes.
I love Maurice’s voice. It is one among many reasons why I watch him!! ❤
What’s wrong with elocution?
The internet needs more content like this; original, calm, well thought out, direct, uplifting.
Very well done, Maurice. Congratulations.
Very right
I love this, haven’t seen anyone on RUclips actually breaking this down like this. Thank you so much and please don’t stop the grind !
Thanks for giving my small channel a shot! Do you use a notebook frequently as well?
RUclips kept pushing this video the last 4 days for whatever reason. I thought to myself "I will watch just to curse at this dude in my room". Nope, actually one of the very few ACTUALLY good ones. Precise, streamlined, no fuss, no fancy anything, straight to the point. "Plan it, and get it done". Amazing, you deserve more subscribers.
As someone with ADHD I think this may be the process/life organization that I've been looking for. Streamlined and physical as to not be easily forgotten or complicated. Time will tell if I can stick with it, but thank you for such a well thought out video.
One of the best “productivity” videos I’ve seen in a long time.
I’ve been defaulting to my journal a lot more lately and I love these exercises. Will certainly try them out for myself.
If you enjoy challenging ideas and if masculinity and mastery are topics of interest to you, I invite you to explore the videos I share on the Mastery Order Channel.
Challenge yourself with some ideas about manhood, explore your masculine potential and become the kind of man you would look up to.
We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well.
Looking forward to your points of view.
All the best to you!
I’m surprised you don’t have millions of subscribers, you have really good content.
I went *all in* on this system, and it has been a game changer for me. Thanks for the continued guidance and advice. Much respect
Thanks so much for giving it a shot! 🙏 I’m so happy to hear it’s been helpful!!! 😎👊
do you still use it?
@@abdultheoneandonly6503 Yes, I do. Everyday for both business and personal use. It has helped me streamline my analog note taking and task list.
@@mitchgonzalez6205 how do you manage non porjects tasks and recurring stuff?
do you recommend any particular notebooks?
@@mitchgonzalez6205
Your videos are just... just... Spot. On. The editing, the voice, the overall aesthetic, the depth and clarity of the content. I've watched several for travel and now several on productivity and I always come away with great ideas.
I love that you gave a non-RUclipsr example as well. I see a lot of self-help RUclipsrs these days only talk about things from their own RUclipsr perspective, even though most of their subscribers likely aren’t RUclipsrs themselves nor planning to become.
Not sure if anyone else already commented…typo on your bullet slide. Last point says : “Task Lasting” when should be “Task Listing”. Probably not a big enough deal to change … great video though. I used these methods on a sample desired result to get some practice and can see how this will very effective and a tool I will want to continue to use . Thanks!!!!
Just discovered your channel & you are a breath of fresh air. Can't wait to see you achieve more & more of your goals while helping others like me achieve more & more. Thanks for being a kindred spirit & know you're appreciated.
Your elocution is awesome.
I’m saving this so I can study it completely. Very helpful. Thank you.
Simple, doable and effective approach. Crystal clear, brief and precise explanation. Thank you so much for making this video!
Maurice, I’m a new subscriber. I wanted to say that I really appreciate your professionalism, your concise commentary, and your subject matter.
Sage advice!... I find that putting pen to paper is much much more stimulating & thought-provoking when working out individual tasks....sometimes, when I return to my notes & observations the solution will become apparent...Good job, thanks! 😊
Thank god I discovered you in my final year of uni! (Would’ve been better if it happened earlier, but hey, luckily it’s not too late😅). This is way more practical, straight to point, effective and efficient than anything I have learned from the workshops on time management, structuring and effective planning our uni offers. Definitely going to use this approach for my m-thesis and internship hunt. Wish me luck!😗🍀🤞🏽
This is on my top 10 videos I've ever watched on YT.
Fantastic. Love your simple yet effective system for goal planning! Thank you for sharing!
So simply explained and yet so conceptually sound!
Bruh! This is awesome. I’m really impressed with this breakdown. Thanks very much for sharing.
I watched this about 10 days ago and have thought about it since then. I rewatched it today, taking notes, and think that it can really help me to clarify what‘s next.
I took a class on goal-setting, and this seems much more user-friendly and practical.
Thanks!
Thank you! I've been going around in circles, trying to figure out a way to move forward in my life. You've shown me that I've been way overthinking this and making it into Mount Everest. It's great to know that there are some people attempting to put good things on RUclips to help!
Came across your channel after your EDC video came up in my feed. Love your content. You are very well spoken and have very relatable topics I enjoy.
I love that you actually talked about the difference between positive and negative freedom. Good to see another philosophy nerd out there.
love the channel, i find myself going back to your videos, even the unlisted ones i have saved in playlists, your channel covers amazing topics and your articulation is much appreciated.
Really appreciate this video. You elaborated the answer to a question I've been pondering for a long time. Thanks so much! I'll definitely be trying this out.
Thank you soo much. Love the step by step approach. And soooo well presented. The clarity is awesomeeee. ❤
Wow! I love this, this is so amazing! Thank you so much!
I feel handwritten notes and to do lists more effective as I hold accountability to something I can see I have written in the past, rather than for example a iPhone notes page to do list. Great tips here, too work bud!
Totally - I think for me, the physical act of crossing out a task is so satisfying and makes it a top reason for me to go analog with to-do's, haha... thanks for watching! 🙏
This channel is a wealth of knowledge. Thanks for the uploads!
I found this channel a few days ago and I binged the entire thing. You're doing a great job.
Love how real you are. Instant subscribe.
So chuffed I stumbled upon your humble channel. What a fountain of knowledge you are. Thank you for taking the time and effort to produce these videos.👏
this is what i need for my journalling and making sense of my mind.
Exactly what I needed! Thank you very much for this great video! I really hope it reaches millions of people!
oh my god, this is so profound. I've tried a lot of things before, but this.. this.. it is going to be the real game changer. Thanks a tonn
What a whirlwind of information, so clear, so actionable! One of the best videos of this type that I have ever seen. Great job! I'm subscribing.
thank you, for encouraging & inspiring...
Trying this out for my goals next month. Wish I would have done this for our big move but I can’t wait to sit down and do this. I love this video watched it twice cause it’s full of amazing nuggets
Thank you for taking the time to post this. This video was well thought out and the execution was impeccable for a small channel. I hope you can succeed in your goals with RUclips since if this is any indication, you are putting out some seriously good content. Out of love, I'll tell you the thing that you already know, which is that it is conventional wisdom that channels that focus on one topic will have an easier time getting a consistent following. For example, even though I watched and loved this video, the other videos about Kickstarter and products aren't something that I'd watch.
This is an excellent and I love how clearly you explained everything. Thank you.
2.5 years after it's uploaded and it is amazing. The questins you're talking about are eye opening. Fantastic video, learned a lot, great quality of video and sound. Great editing also.😊😊😊
Great content. Looking forward to watching old episodes and discovering new info. Thanks for the gift of your time and talent.
Wow, thank you! You have no idea how helpful this is to me.
This video was gold. So glad to have found this video. Great job!
This is what I used to do to get thing done, I needed this kick to reboot my processes. Thanks so much for this post.
Thank you Maurice! I'm so happy to have come across your channel. Never heard of Traveller notebooks and living in Japan I'm happy to support a local company. I have used Rhodia products for years and love them but plan to try the Traveller passport size next. The other video on suggestions for that was also very helpful. Your system of note taking is awesome. I read 7 Habits several times and didn't get such information that you've posted here. My brain loves "systems" and clear procedures so from a fellow Canuck thank you for doing what you do.
Gosh! I love your content, man. Great voice, performance and graphic approach to productivity through analog proceso! Thanks!!
Awesome and inspirational! Thank you.
Im digging your channel dude! Keep up the hard work! Its paying off.
The backwards checkpoint thing is such an awesome idea! Super useful, thank you!
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing!
Damn, this makes me want to have more moving parts in my life. I'm too simple for all this.
I'm thrilled I came across your page . What a fabulous presentation. I just got my first TN. 3 inserts, the clear case and plane charm. I feel like I hit lottery. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber 😊
Wow this is awesome, I've seen 3 videos and from them I can see ur a great youtuber who cares about the viewers' time and I respect that. God bless you bro!
Thanks to you my friend I bought my very first Traveler's Notebook (Passport size).
I used to use notebooks all the time, even working with I.T I like the idea of being analogic using paper. I was trying to use notebooks again and I had no idea how to start but this video helped me a lot!!
Terrific content, keep it up!!!
This is a fantastic resource. Thank you, Maurice.
Tanks so much, you've got no idea how badly I needed your advice! 😅
Fantastic! Gratitude. 🙏🏽 respect
This is honestly one of the most clearly defined an actionable processes I've seen on here. I wanted a system that would work both privately and professionally. Being able to use this system for basically anything makes it so much easier to adopt because I'm not stumbling around using different systems for all the different areas of my life.
Really great stuff! Thanks so much for sharing your strategies and making it so easy to follow. :)
Do you use it?
Interesting, you've given a road map of how most every INTJ attacks problems naturally. This was very clearly presented. Succinct, and solid. Well done, sir.
Best video ever!! I love this! ❤️
Would love a follow-up video on how you find and extract hidden company info like salary, etc. THANKS!
I'm so glad that I found your channel. Love your cadence, candor, and content :)
Excellent video Mauice - some great ideas that go beyond the notebook. Can't wait for more!
This was incredibly helpful! Love this
This was a great video. I liked how you broke it down into easily digestible chunks.
Great video. Love the concept of “checkpoint mapping”. I’m a physical therapist and I always talk about reverse engineering when it comes to goal setting with patients. What brand notebook are you using? Thanks. Awesome content
Great material and great positive energy!
Very clean editing, high quality production with killer content. I'm subscribed and looking forward to more content that will make a difference. Thank you.
This is so helpful! Thank you for making this video
incredible video, implementing this for 2023 and excited to grow as a result!
I love the idea of checkpoint mapping! Here are a couple follow-up questions. Do you make a result definition page everyday, how do you use the notebook everyday? Thank you so much, Maurice, I love your channel, and am always awaiting the newest video! PS. This is the first channel I have ever commented on.
You are so damn structured and thorough with your explanations
That's a good breakdown, will help in my current journaling process.
Very high-quality work! 👌
Thanks
This was amazingly helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for putting in the incredible effort of breaking down your note taking process. I can tell you have a system that you rely on, and it helps you think and stay organized, and namely, it allows you to suss out erroneous goals. Pretty cool! I use notebooks extremely differently. I work for a startup, which requires procurement, inventory management, coding, research, and a lot learning. My notebooks are a space to flesh out those categories. I can list out things I need, work out a tough algorithm or piece of logic, and remind myself of important things I've learned. But I specifically avoid writing down daily tasks and making Todo lists that pertain to my personal life (maybe you do as well?).
My mentor, who is genuinely one of the smartest people I know, once asked me; "what is your 20 year plan?" I was 22 at the time, and stumbled through an answer that was essentially a ToDo list I tried to come up with on the spot. Before I could ramble out more than 2-3 items, he stopped me and asked a few simple questions; do I want to marry, have children, work for myself, retire early, where I'd like to live, etc. After working out some of those answers, it came down to the fact that I did want to get married, and that I wasn't interested in sacrificing that to make enormous amounts of money, or be famous, or anything surrounding material or vain goals.
He explained to me, that life is a spanning tree, where the best we can do is to create opportunities across different branches. Success depends on your view; or what your specific tree looks like). The trick, is to act on the opportunities that fall within your tree, or to maybe add to its branches. Life is too complicated and dynamic to achieve what you want in life by writing down a personal ToDo list. Like the TedTalk says, you'll wind up at the destination goal, and find you didn't really value it after all.
4 Weeks later I met my girlfriend (now wife), got the job I wanted, and started training professionally in the sport I was playing-shrugging off some other hobbies, and declining to join a couple of 9-5 jobs I applied for straight out of college. I had reduced my 20 year plan to 1-2 years. All of this changed the structure of that tree, but the 20 year plan stayed the same.
I guess the TLDR is; use a notebook as a memory bank, or scratch pad. Use it for task management, but be weary of hard coding in life goals to a page in a book. It could slow you down, or lock you into a commitment going the wrong direction.
Since you did such an excellent job using real life examples, ill toss one in here: Is your 20 year plan, to make $3500/mo from a youtube channel? Probably not.
Its most likely, one branch in the greater plan you described--financial independence, freedom to travel, and working on your own time. However, in the notebook, these goals are sub-bullet points that justify investing in a youtube channel. This is the same pitfall (potentially) as described in the TedTalk. Instead, your 20 year goals, and your investment in your channel have created a branch. A single span which *could* bring you to your 20 year goals. But it doesn't have to. For example, if the youtube platform dies in 10 years, you would consider your todo list failed, since your goal was a profitable youtube channel.
Anyways, this is pretty overkill for a youtube comment. Sorry about that. I don't pretend to assume that an example on your video is the crux of a 20 year plan, but that's my 2 cents. :)
dude. thanks, man. i never comment - but this is GOLD!
I'm shook that you "only" have 30K, your videos are so good !! I'm going to implement your advices right away
Appreciate your approach very much! Combines many good aspects of GTD and bullet journaling in a very unique way. Seams very down to earth and goal oriented. Like it very much! 🦊
Hey❤️ I may not know you personally however I care about you deeply because I know how much you mean to Jesus Christ The King of ALL CREATION . I want to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you so much, he died for our sins so that whoever believes in him wouldn’t have to perish in hell but instead have eternal life in heaven. You need to understand that HEAVEN and HELL are 1000% REAL they aren’t imaginary , and hell is a horrible place I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. God doesn’t want you to end up there he wants you in heaven and so he is giving you a chance to accept the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ and be saved. Day by Day the world is falling apart because we are literally living in the last days of Earth there is no doubt or debate about it, Jesus Christ is coming faster then you think to bring judgement to the world and to destroy it. This really is URGENT, it’s NOT A JOKE ,Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, you can be alive one minute and gone the next, please take this opportunity to be on the side of Mercy confess your sins and wicked ways to Jesus , sincerely REPENT/turn away from them, ask for his forgiveness, and be baptized at a real bible believing church- ask him to enter your heart and to be your Lord and Savior before it is too late , truly believe in him and he WILL do it because it is his promise. It’s important that you seek the righteous and Holy path of the Most high God so that you may inherit eternal life and be spared of Hell fire. You can begin a new life in Christ and have a genuine relationship with him, please repent. Jesus changed my life and he will change yours too🥰, He is coming NOW! not SOON- when you least expect it!, therefore repent and make sure you are prepared. May the Lord be with you eternally💕🙏🏾
This is such a good plan! Thank you for making!😊😮❤
Brilliant and simple!🤘
Great video, systems and processes are so key. Going to use this note taking system. Thanks Maurice
Incredible video. One of the best I've seen on the subject.
Bloody hell. I came for the notebook, stayed for the mindset of the why. It’s made me shift my way of thinking of things
Thank you. This blew open GTD for me which I have used for a long time. I think seeing your funnel system on paper helped me a lot, along with how you use your notebook as you are filling it up. I feel like this might have been a missing puzzle piece. I think having the checkpoints creates the momentum I need.
Absolutely excellent video!
♡ ur content and ur style of delivery! Keep it up! 😃👊
Maurice, I am really enjoying your channel. I am in the process of making some BIG changes in my life. New Job, Teaching Photography on the side, RUclips channel, and leading a healthier lifestyle. Finding a journal/planner will be paramount to being successful with all this going on. Thank you.
Excellent video! On point, concise and informative.
I'm struggling to stop procrastinating and study for an important exam at work and this helped me a LOT! Will update the results if everything works :) thanks!
Amazing video! Can't wait to try this method out💪🏼
Ummm my new favorite RUclips channel!!!!
Wow, this is great its very helpful. You breaking down to step by step process, thank you.
This was fantastic. I definitely need to try out this idea.
Hey Maurice, I got to this channel via the algorithm - great stuff, amazing investment in the presentation and the details. Subscribed and looking forward to your new videos. Keep crushin' it man 💪
