1. Focus completely for 2-4 hours everyday on your highest priority thing. - remove things that take away your time - do a little everyday, not everything in one go as that will be unhealthy - tip: wake up early in the morning for these extra hours to focus and relax - avoid excessive contents like social media 2. Do one thing at a time - Put your focus on one one thing at a time - too much priority = bad performance for each and every task - break it up if there is too many tasks or priorities (easy schedule example- one day at a time) 3. Declutter your schedule - when u free up time, don’t pack more things in - if the important meeting/ task was not as important as u think, u may let it go( remove it from yr schedule) Extra: 1) Don’t pack too much into your schedule, be okay with not doing other stuff bc you’re putting your focus into what rly makes an impact 2) A promotion is a recognition that you can handle more scope

Focus for 2-4 hours every day on your most important thing. Block your time. Context switching kills your focus. 1:26 "The key to head-turning amounts of achievement is by chipping away at big things that take focus, over long periods of time" Do one thing at a time. If you do have competing priorities, move them to different days. 3:07 "Your job is to, every day, do one thing, really well" De-clutter your calendar of meetings, and keep it that way: simply skip all meetings for one week, and never come back to skipped meetings that led to nothing bad happening.

Interestingly enough, your main tip (2-4 hours of uninterrupted work) is something I've been practicing in a fashion.

These are certainly my most productive chunks of the day and I recommend them frequently. Excellent guidance. Subscribed!

There's also the idea of productivity in terms of entertainment for mental health so that you don't burn out. The hardest thing for me is finding ways to get rid of some of the things I like since there are so many and finding the most efficient way to learn what I need to move forward since technical ability is what's holding me back. Some advice I've seen is "just build something", but that only works if you know how to build and how to architect and understand the technology you are using. In my opinion, it isn't very useful to just build something that works if you end up doing it in a way that isn't the industry standard. In that scenario, it just feels like a waste of time. Building small things is okay from tutorials, but that also doesn't really teach industry standards or how to architect your own project. Now it's about reading a book on design patterns and trying to implement those. I've also tried to break things up into different days, but then it's easy on Wednesday to forget what I learned on Monday. The current schedule is to read for an hour, then do some leetcode questions for an hour, then tutorials for two hours, but that's not sustainable with a full time job. It's all a bit overwhelming.
@NYgasman8
2 жыл бұрын
You should use the advice from this video. Do less in one day. Have a leetcode day, a tutorial day, and a reading day. I break my days into 3 things, home productivity which is chores or learning things, work productivity, and fun/relaxation. For each of these blocks i try to do only one or maybe 2 things per day and i find it is way more effective, time efficient, and less stressful. So for example a day could be like this where i may clean a room or 2 of my apartment, work on one of my sprint tasks for 2-4hrs, and then play a video game for an hour or more.

He makes a point in one of them that we used to just use the word priority, and only recently have we morphed it into priorities... but really you can only have one priority at a time. edit: Oh I should mention he makes that point but also gives credit to James Clear of 'Atomic Habits' for originally bringing it up.

Good advice, but the skipping meetings thing could use a tweak. Speaking as a tech mgr, if you have a good relationship with your own manager (try to!) and you want to try and clear out your schedule, they can cover for you, give you feedback on the more useful meetings and also help coordinate across the team if only one person from the team is really needed. You can also decline or respond tentative to individual meetings that week which would be a big improvement over just not showing up. Just missing all your meetings for a week without any coordination strikes me as a pretty junior move. If the meeting isn't impacted by you not showing up chances are good that it wont be rescheduled if you cant make it, and you wont get specific action items coming from it.

This mindset makes easier for me to tell myself when it's late, and that I should just "give up" on the day and just sleep.

I really like you man, your videos seem so genuine compared to other "software" youtubers that are more about the "look at me, I'm so chill, look at my TC" type of content. Found your videos a couple weeks ago and subscribed right away. Thanks for putting out quality content!

I'm not a native English speaker. When talking to management, I unintentionally get into too much technical and not able to give the complete and high level idea . 1. How to explain things at right level of abstraction based on the audience? 2. How to be good at story telling which I think is useful when giving demos ? 3. When to have informal conversations with teammates and management? 4. What to talk during 1-1 with skip manager?

The B roll shot with all the puzzle pieces looks like a good topic for a video

Great advice, especially your statement about promotion is not a reward but a recognition of capable handling more scope. That's a big shift in mindset!
