I am a Pastoral Care Coordinator in a big aged care facility and everyday is a new day. Even though l write down what l have to do for the day, there is always something taking it's place. But l still write events to take place and time-block my day...staying consistent is the key, makes you a better person!
@@hugofernandes1501 Thanks for sharing. That's an interesting perspective and take on utilizing time blocking from a completely different industry. Couldn't agree more with consistency 👍
Great vid. I still seem to come back to using pen and paper to organize tasks. I’ve tried apps on desktop and mobile, but pen and paper seems to keep me on track best.
Thank you Aurelius, I have been struggling for years to get some structure in my day and to stick to it. This is simple to implement and execute from day 1. Cheers David
I have used Cal Newport's method with one interesting result: people like Cal Newport and content creators can actually lock themselves away and effectively block time. The biggest, and so far unresolved challenge for me, as a trainer, (both online and in a meeting room), was to integrate the blocked "downtime" and the differently blocked "training time". Things are also cyclical. This means, in times when training is less, typically in the summer, the mind expands with more room for ideas etc. which then need to be integrated into busier times. The bottom line in this: what works well on paper needs constant tweaking in reality, and the necessary discipline to go with it. At some point, the end result will be manageable.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts from another perspective. You are right in that we as different people have different ways of working such as content creators. Adjust, adapt, and tweak the use of time blocking to suit your work and life environment.
Good video. I carry around a 3 x 5 note card, and I time block on left side of card with hours down the middle. Then I track actual time on right side. I don’t work in an office all the time- I’m a landscape painter. So my time is broken up between painting, marketing, admin, and I do some construction projects. I have tried digital apps but my phone is a distraction. I turn off my phone or put it on do not disturb when I paint. The one app I like is Now Then. It’s just for time tracking. Thanks 🙏
I have been thinking about managing my time better than I see your video. I am a pen and paper type of person. Great tips Aurelius. Thank you. I plan to be more organized in 2022.
Really good for people who are running out of time. I personally don't need anything like that right now, but maybe in the future I'll need something like this. The reason is, cause I keep on getting bored a lot of time in a day😅. And my parents don't allow me starting up a TH-cam channel, etc.😕 I know they must be worried about my studies, but even when I try to ensure them, they don't believe me.😣 And I just get bored the whole day. Even after studying in a lot of that time.😔
I happen to have that very same book since Q1 last year, and have not touched it since I bought it. Time to make it to good use. Thanks for much explanation on how-to time block with the book, really need it!
If you ever do an updated version of this video, I think it would be helpful to include that the additional columns on the time blocking page itself are for when your day (inevitably) goes awry - you note the interruption / time delay etc. and then reschedule the remainder of your day based on this new information. As well as being a dynamic system during the day itself, ‘rolling with the punches’ it also is intended to give you more data on which to base future time blocking decisions; ie. If you always schedule 2 hours to write a regular report but it invariably takes you 3 hours, noting this down will mean in future you will schedule the appropriate amount of time. Or if a particular collaborator requires prompting in order to give you the information you need to perform your role, you can make sure you chase them ahead of the dedicated work block, to avoid unnecessary delays etc.
I’m here in 2024 almost 2025 because after I’m majority of my life being wasted in prison for a non-violent non-sexual financial crime. I now have to rebuild my life in a way that I don’t even know how so I have to rely on Jesus and rely on my relationship with God to help me develop these traits.
Hello, i am also changing carrier, starting from zero for the 4th time. Never too late. If you need a hand let me know ( i use hypnotherapy and tapping -> i help for free ✨)
Interesting that you do not schedule anything after work - what about things you need to do around the house, getting on top of any bills / formalities?
Great video. I’ve read a lot poor reviews on Amazon from people claiming the planner will not stay open when laid flat on a table. But it looks like it does in your video?
Do you ever rest or have time for creativity outside of implementation mode with this? It looks overwhelming. Also, why is breakfast crossed out, but lunch is written in? any diff there?
You must have done a great job getting the word out because the product is temporarily out of stock, lol. Effective partnership on their end. Great video bro.
That's the good kind of follow through I hope. Sounds like you're falling victim to being overwhelmed or forgetting. Hv eyou tried a combination to-do list/timeblock calendar on apps like Yoodoo?
Good point you made. TH-cam has become quite a primary focus of mine as my other online businesses are quite passive and I have a team that I delegate work to, giving me time to work on building this TH-cam channel, future programs/courses and other ventures. At the moment, the majority of my time is made up of going from creating content to dealing with sponsors which is why you see my schedule is filled with content creation-related tasks. With a good strategy in place and staying consistent + persistent, TH-cam can prove to be quite a profitable business 👌

I'm a 25 yr old 1st time in my life going to schedule my time hope this works well for me... Thanks for the great video
How’s it going. -a 22 year old in the same boat
You are already ahead of the game at 25 if you keep this up!!!!
appreciate that you actually have a kid :) so many of people's vids on efficiency are not realistic for parents
For me the best part really is the shutdown complete. It helps a lot
Great vid. I still seem to come back to using pen and paper to organize tasks. I’ve tried apps on desktop and mobile, but pen and paper seems to keep me on track best.
Good that you experimented with both. Once I’ve finished using up all the pages of my copy, I’m going to try an electronic version and see how I go.

Ooouuuuuu I’m definitely going to try this this week. Thank youuuu! 🙌🏾
This is exactly what I need, I am all over the place. I will give it a try.

this seems like a system that might work for me. thank you for the video!
I am following this time blocking strategy.. I hope I get to stick to it this time! I want to be a disciplined individual 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Me too!
This applies to other people who do not have work like the author of the channel. Limited audience.
Thank you this was very helpful. Im appreciative of your review.
So helpful, you inspire me thank you
Nice video 🎉 - good to see this in practice - I def got some ideas
This was such a great video. Thank you!

Oh, do you mean the Planner? I didn’t even realise. Definitely wasn’t sold out because of me. Perhaps they are printing more.
time-blocking is not rocket science, i can create plans easily but what i need is to follow through which i never do :)
That's the good kind of follow through I hope. Sounds like you're falling victim to being overwhelmed or forgetting. Hv eyou tried a combination to-do list/timeblock calendar on apps like Yoodoo?
Hello, i am here offering free help as a coach and therapist I need practice in English so it can be beneficial for both 😊 let me know if interested
How did you make it to having youtube as your 9-5 ?
Good point you made. TH-cam has become quite a primary focus of mine as my other online businesses are quite passive and I have a team that I delegate work to, giving me time to work on building this TH-cam channel, future programs/courses and other ventures.

@@AureliusTjin Make it a video! Teach us the way to escape the 9-5!!!
