Hey guys, I made a step by step tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/J1kvuv9wEb0/w-d-xo.html
at the end of the day, its just a phone,you the user is the superior being. Technology doesn’t control us, we just have little control over ourselves
Exactly
But the older, superior brain regions that "control you", e.g. dominate over planning decisions made by your cortex - which shrinks further as you become addicted to technology - aren't going anywhere.
life isn’t that black and white
Actually, you’re quite wrong. Modern technology is designed to make money. They make money by stimulating the limbic system and primitive part of the brain. Watch Elon musk talk about it and AI to Joe Rogan. And THATS 5 years ago, it’s clear where this is heading.
Exactly. It’s just boils down to discipline.
Can you create a tutorial on how to setup everything like you did?
figure it out

@@sheou3250That’s exactly what they’re asking
6:50 .... Just pure gold, never thought about alarms that way. It definitely makes more sense, alarm to go to sleep, wake up naturally 🙏
Best video I've seen out of all "productivity" iPhone videos by far. Simple and straightforward. Gave me some great ideas. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Agreed
the color background for each space/focus mode is such a great idea!
I might try adopting this method of restricting phone distractions. Thanks for the video!
Stunningly presented video! Really helpful productivity tips, I especially love the bit about adding friction to things we want to do less. Thank you!
Since graduating at UW, I am still a loyal Blackberry user. With the disconnect of the Blackberry server, I am still able to use the Blackberry Passport. It has no social media, no games, and no addition apps other than the default that originally came with. A year N half later after the disconnect, I continue to use it for calls, SMS text, emails, contacts, notes, and calendar. Basically, it’s just productivity. I recently bought an Android device but still haven’t really set it up yet. There are just too many things going on that device and I don’t want to get lost into a sea of apps and time consuming of looking onto a glass screen. I like the hard keyboard and minimalism of the Blackberry devices. 🙂
Im 15 when I was 6 my uncle gave me his old blackbeeey it was sooo good! I loved it. It’s still there in my native. Now I’m an IOS user. Kinda miss that black berry 😢
I wanted a blackberry so badly growing up! Wish they would make a come back.
Thats really smart
focus modes have helped me also. your focus shortcut is very intuitive
Thanks for sharing. I love the style of this and didn’t know about focus modes to this extent. Will try this out.
I’ve had my phone permanently on DNS for over a year now and have loved it. No ringing or buzzing to distract me
I changed my entire phone when the focus modes came out! It’s been awesome. You can also change into focus modes when your phone is at a specific location 😮
Thank you for sharing this. I hope to try this mode on. Need to see how to organize it!
wow looks like the perfect setup! its a bit hard for me since i work w social media but the “alarm to sleep instead of alarm to wake up” thing is something i’ll be trying 😮 it makes so much sensee..
Awesome sharing, I definitely underutilize my iPhone features for working mode. Good to see other people showing their setups from time to time. Other than using an app for writing daily “journal”before bedtime, I don’t have anything else specific to share yet, maybe in the future. Thanks Tim!
Journalling is one of those things that help me so much when I do it, but I always fall off the wagon over time. Need to get back on it. Thanks for the reminder :)
@@TimKoa I have been consistent using the app called “Day One” for up to 1,635 days so far now. Maybe it will work for you too :)
Tao the Instagram you have here is that your official one ?
because some is impersonating you
can you share your shortcut templates? im having a hard time recreating those :)
what did you find
I really like your videos! Objective, down to Earth, informative and easy to listen to.
Relatable and helpful. Thank you Tim!
Great video with great ideas that I’ll surely take in consideration. Thanks for making it!
Best one I've seen until now. Really great!
I don't know who you are, but I like the smile on your face. Clearly like what you are doing, and it's nice to see.
Great video! Can you please share the shortcuts to change the focus modes? I really liked it.
Yep, me too!
never showed it
Thanks for the video, really helpful, I’ll apply it to my way
I really enjoyed the video! Got my creative juices flowing! Thanks
This inspired me to change my phone setup, Thanks!
yep! this is my turning point. thank you for thisss.
Loooove how you organized your phone 🙌🏻
Your voice and aura is very calming
One big tip to do to help you when you are NOT in focus mode is to turn off notifications in settings on (almost all) apps that are distracting.
This is amazing info, and you are adorable. It's going to take me a week to digest this video and to apply it, but I am desperate for a healthy home-work life balance. Thank you!
I like this productivity video. It's a nice change from your online business videos but it's still relevant to entrepreneurs. Keep it up!
Without improving my productivity there's no way I would have had the time to start a business :)
I’ve got a lot to learn. Thanks for this video. I’m so green I can’t even figure out how you have the 4 focus mode shortcuts at the top….
I tried this set-up and it is really helpful! Thanks for sharing this :)
Can u share the shortcuts
amazing video! thank you for creating
I have never used focus modes on my iPhone but after watching this I really liked your focus setup with the Shortcuts widget. Decided to set mine up that way as well. Gonna give it a try and see how I like it! I like the idea of a dynamically changing homescreen.
How did you set up the shortcut?
@@pascalneron6510It’s easy.
1. Long press your home screen
2. Press the plus button
3. Search up “Shortcuts”
4. Add the widget that has 4 focuses
5. Long press the widget then press edit widget
6. It should bring u to the shortcuts app
7. Press the plus
8. Search focus
9. Choose set focus
10. Make sure it is the focus you want and that it’s on until I make turn it of
11. Change name and icon
12. Repeat
I hope you create a video on how you set up the four focus mode - chill work drive fitness.
I definately recommed the Huberman Lab podcast - it incredibly informative on so many aspects of one's life with health and body related topics. It's hosted by Andrew Huberman who is a nuerology professor at stanford and all the information is incredibly useful and backed in science. He also frequently has guests on the podcast that are experts in the respective topic. 10/10 podcast, it's what got me into podcasts actually
Can you do a tutorial on how to have apps for specific focuses? I think it's a great idea to keep the homescreen minimal but I'm unsure on how to do it haha
same, I was thinking he changed the apps manually to show us on the video, but if when he presses a shortcut, his home screen arranges automatically like that, this is worth millions
nevermind, i found the solution, the sortcut is used only to choose between focuses, now that you have the shortcut, you need to configure your focus modes, you go to focus - choose the focus mode you want to configure - on customize screen select "Choose" and then it will let you create a new page with the apps you want, or choose from an existing page on your home screen, my advise is to create a new page first with the apps you want, and then once you save the cchanges, turn on the focus mode you just configures and THEN add the widget, because that is the only way it will let you add widgets to the created pages
@@banannagarbro I was lookin all over for this info thanks
@@banannagar but what I don't understand is why would you do all this instead of just clicking on your specific focus mode in the control center
@@MattGarcyaDC Friction. Having the shortcut directly on the homescreen is far more efficient than having to go through control center imo
The shortcuts idea is really good can you do a tutorial on how to set it up ?
Thank you for this video!
How do you set up those shortcuts that change your focus?
I have my phone set up to do not disturb at all times with all notifications silenced. Important people can get through and everyone else can wait for me to call them back or respond to their messages. I do this twice per day. I check my emails once per day. Life has never been better.
Excellent video man! I’m going to nerd out and implement these as well. Thanks so much for putting this video together.
I recently created an ‘accessibility shortcut’; triple tapping my power button to turn the entire screen grayscale. It makes the phone surprisingly less enticing!
Side note - just started (finally) reading Atomic Habits today! I’ve definitely found compounding habits to be a total game-changer in my life 🔥
Perfect thanks for sharing👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Hey :) Great and inspiring video! I struggle with the same issue a lot of times. Can you make a video about how you set up those focus-shortcuts?
that would be so helpful
Most important thing for focussing: Do something you like or love. Learn stuff you love, work on stuff you love. You shouldn't have problems.
great ideas! thank you!
Where did you find you Lock Screen wallpaper? Do you have a link?
Is there a guide for those shortcuts to modify the Home Screen?
step 1- buy an iPhone
I mean it’s in the title
Stop with the excuses
in the title dawg.
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing this with us. I find it almost impossible to get much done every day, between distractions and social media overtaking my brain. I am going to set these up right now! One question - You said you start sleep mode at 9pm. Can you give us an idea of the rest of your day, hour wise? I have GOT to do something to get a grip on my productivity, so I'm just curious as to how many hours you dedicate to different things! Thank you! ^.^
I wake up around 5 to 5:30 so I can some exercise or deep work in before the kids wake up. After breakfast and dropping off the kids, it's pretty much working in time blocks until around 5-6pm which is dinner, then more time with the fam until bed :)
@@TimKoa Thank you so much for the reply, and info! ☺
Very cool. I love these ideas, but I just cant wittle down my apps to that few. I have gone down to 1 screen which is very nice though.
Love the setup, Can you share how you use things 3?
7:45
Awesome video! I’m intrigued by the Notion vs Obsidian idea. I would like to see the differences from a user perspective. This leaves me wondering…is Notion safe? When you talked about privacy in Obsidian, I’m thinking Notion isn’t safe?
Thanks for another great video.
How did you set up the focus widget?
On the shortcut app
I just delete the social apps and download them every 2 weeks or so on a lazy day
same lol i go on the app then delete it when im done
cool Tim thanks
I love how you have done the short cuts bit…is there a video I can use to do it for myself because I’m not very good with this sort of thing. And want to try pull my life together by getting of social media a bit more
Hi Tim, just want to thank you again for your videos. I made my 4th sale on Etsy. I still have long ways to go. Oh l reached out to family & friends to buy my products. That was such a good idea. Thanks again!

Big Thanks for sharing a pro way to improve productivity, however can you share your iphone,s wallpaper its awesome I love this a lot.
Really great tips!
Love this video - I want to utilize the focus modes like you have. I've been playing around with it and I am struggling to figure out how to set up that Siri suggestion bar you have on top, to switch between the modes. How do I do it?
any luck?
What do you do about the app drawer ?
Can you do a tutorial on how to do that?
how do you make a shortcut taking you to each filter?
how are you setting up the pages ?? I cant get them to stay the way I create them ! They keep changing and its bothering me so much lol
Is there a video on how to create those short cuts?
Hi. How did you manage to disappear all icons on sleep mode?
How can I create those Siri Shortcuts to change different focus modes???
Great video! If you could make another trying to do it with the Samsung routines app it would definitely help more people.
Great tips!
Great video, first time where
how can I use shortcuts to set the homepage of the Iphone?
how can we do that widget with focus modes buttons?
How do you create series shortcuts?
How do you put the focuses on your homescreen?
How do I set up the series thing?
How do you add the Focus widget to your home screen like that? I’ve been trying to do that for a while now
Any direction would be incredibly helpful!
any luck??
@@joshjustin4145 haven’t heard anything
first minute in and i already know this is gonna be a banger
Awesome video I am going to do something similar to my phone
You'd love Accidental Tech Podcast. It features Marco Arment, the developer of Overcast.
Great to see content like this appreciate it ✨🤝
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it! :)
@@TimKoa I have DM you in Instagram and I would love to connect with you on there😊
This channel reminds me of Matt D'Avella's! Awesome!
Can you please do a tutorial for the focuses
Love the home screen with all your focuses on, can anyone tell me how to get that? i've been looking but can't seem to figure it out
its at like 2:20
Hey! How have you done shortcuts with different homescreens? Can you provide some guide? 😊
I would also like to know this!
love it but i dont know how to set it up would u pls gv tutorial
Tried to set this up but I can't get the shortcuts to work properly. Clicking on one focus shortcut is fine and changes my home screen. However, when I click on another focus shortcut it changes to that home sceen but the previous focus home screen is also accessible if I swipe left.
You can disable screens for each focus. It's under settings > focus > customize screens.
Real AF with Andy Frisella
I want the background he when his phone is in chill mode
Can you make a video on how you set up your shortcuts
Genius idea, took me a while to set up with all these apps but this work/fitness etc switcher is really useful
how did you set it up bro?
How do you set that up? I can’t seem to figure it out.
Nice one mate. I like that you have the different focus modes up the top to quickly switch. I think I might adopt your setup
how do you do it??
Great video Tom. Inspiring. Thanks.
