    The Now Habit by Neil Fiore was a lifesaver for me. Convinced me to do the "unschedule" by first putting important self-care, health activities, and family obligations on my calendar first, then schedule everything else around it (including work).

    the problem with youtube is that the algorithm is better at finding stuff that you want than the actual search function on youtube.
    i can search for a video, word for word the title of the video. but around certain topic you wont even see the video you are looking for.
    and when searching for a specific kind of information. youtube shows you shitty search results (often really bad quality videos) but then maybe a few hours later and bam. the video you were looking for shows up in recommendation. It's super weird. and the search function used to be really good back in the day. but then they neutered it by implementing a "show news outlets first" or "for you section" in the search results.
    it's so bad these days.
    otherwise i have a distraction free youtube addon. but i often take it off. put videos in a new tab that i want to watch and then I put it back on.

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    00:12 🌱 *Developing discipline is about building it into your identity, not just tackling ambitious goals randomly.*
    01:39 📝 *Identify key areas of your life (Deep life buckets) and establish tractable Keystone habits for daily tracking.*
    06:50 🔄 *Overhaul each life bucket during one to two months, focusing intensively on specific improvements, experimenting, and adapting.*
    09:50 🧭 *Building discipline involves a two-step process: Keystone habits for foundational identity, then focused overhauls for deeper integration.*
    13:21 🎯 *Long-term planning is a feedback loop; start with a broad quarterly plan, refine weekly plans based on feedback, and adapt daily plans accordingly.*
    15:50 📚 *Cal Newport discusses his writing philosophy and mentions his appreciation for Johan Hari's work, highlighting Hari's inversion approach in exploring complex topics.*
    20:28 🗓️ *Pre-block important or timely work on your calendar to ensure it gets prioritized.*
    22:18 🌿 *Time block relaxation into your workday for sustainability and guilt-free breaks.*
    24:06 🗃️ *Theme smaller admin blocks by cognitive context to enhance efficiency and reduce cognitive context switching.*
    26:42 📅 *Add a short postmortem organizing block after significant meetings to process information and avoid open loops.*
    29:35 🕰️ *Explore advanced time-blocking techniques for improved productivity and work sustainability.*
    36:35 🧠 *The video discusses the challenge of focusing on hard tasks and explores the neuroscience behind distraction, emphasizing the role of the dopamine system in seeking quick rewards.*
    39:12 🎯 *Overstimulation, especially from social media, affects young people significantly, hindering long-term, deep cognitive work, leading to issues like poor grades and job stagnation.*
    40:35 🚫 *To combat overstimulation, the solution proposed is straightforward: eliminate sources causing overstimulation. This involves not using social media for entertainment and avoiding online news.*
    45:10 🤐 *To use TH-cam without falling into the distraction trap, employ browser plugins that block recommendations. This turns TH-cam into a useful library for specific searches without the constant lure of suggested content.*
    47:50 📺 *For high-quality video content, especially on TH-cam, use television sets rather than browsers to maintain a ritualistic, less-distracting consumption pattern. Also, replace lower-quality content with better alternatives.*
    49:50 🔄 *The final strategy involves flooding your environment with high-quality stimulation to replace the craving for distracting content. This shift is similar to replacing junk food with healthier alternatives.*
    51:28 🗓️ *The speaker recommends a middle ground between intense time blocking and complete drift, suggesting a sketch plan for evenings and weekends to bring intentionality to non-professional time.*
    54:46 🔄 *For ongoing activities like improving at a hobby, the importance lies in establishing systems, habits, or routines. These provide a structured approach to consistently engage with long-term pursuits.*
    54:59 🔄 *Installing habits: Create routines, systems, and habits in your life by working them into your schedule, using calendars or metric tracking. Make them a background part of your life to generate a sense of identity and positive feedback.*
    56:19 🔄 *Limited capacity for habits: Be mindful of the limited number of habits you can effectively maintain. Choose them carefully, considering fitness, high-quality leisure, intellectual pursuits, and personal interests.*
    57:42 🔄 *Draft your life slots: Draft major routines on your wall, allocating slots for important habits. Consider fitness, intellectual pursuits, and personal interests. Limit the number to avoid commitment failures.*
    59:18 🔄 *Implicit hourly rate for personal tasks: When considering outsourcing personal tasks, focus on the disruption to your schedule and stress impact rather than the monetary value. Factor in the footprint on your schedule and stress levels.*
    01:00:39 🔄 *Outsourcing chores and stress: When evaluating outsourcing, prioritize tasks with high schedule disruption or stress. Consider investing in outsourcing or elimination to improve overall well-being.*
    01:07:31 🔄 *Recovering from burnout: Use time off to establish a productivity framework for clarity. Focus on understanding and organizing obligations to gain confidence and advocate for a reasonable workload. Productivity can empower you in managing expectations and workload.*
    01:11:16 🔄 *Autonomy through productivity: Productivity systems provide autonomy by giving you control over obligations, preventing overload. Having options and clarity about your work allows you to advocate for yourself and make informed decisions.*
    01:12:37 🤔 *Productivity applies not only to work but also to leisure; haphazard busyness in leisure can lead to lack of motivation and progress.*
    01:13:30 🔄 *Introduce a productivity framework to your leisure life; create routines for fitness, reading, and community, and focus on one major project at a time.*
    01:16:56 🤹‍♂️ *To decide on a side hustle, gain extreme clarity on your current workload, configure it, and then evaluate where the side hustle fits, considering realistic time commitments.*
    01:17:52 🚀 *After gaining control of your job, assess the feasibility and worthiness of a side hustle; having autonomy provides options for better decision-making.*
    01:21:23 🔄 *Shift the perspective on productivity; in academic settings, consider each professor as a standalone business and develop internal systems to manage workload efficiently.*

    The strategy of breaking admin work into specific goals is very helpful, thank you Cal. I’m going to try this.
    I do have multiple email addresses for different things- one for family related, two different work emails for different jobs, one just for bills, accounts, memberships. It really helps to look at them separately, and keep like things that together. Kind of like the Marie Kondo method or organizing your house, like things stay in one place.

      @@hopelessatusernames I don’t think it comes off as cheap at all. It’s a compilation of bits he think will be useful to new listeners. People who might not have ever listened and come across this for the first time. It’s a good strategy to compile old information that is still useful and relevant. Let’s see you put out content and then you can talk.
