I use Google notes to write my stuff down whenever I want to or I use Google recorder. It basically records your voice and automatically convert it into a text format as well, so useful. And perfume thing actually works. I do it everyday and it feels good and there's a constant smile without any reason :)
I am glad you included the afternoon nap thing. Its generally considered lazy but is amazing especially if you wake early in the morning. Acts like a mid-day energy recharge for your body so that you can easily work till late at night.

I am so happy that I almost do 7-8 things out of them. It really helps a lot and it keeps me productive without engaging much of my brain unnecessarily.
So. What I'll be doing are - -- Putting calendars -- using technology -- self whatsApp group -- maybe diaries -- alarm and phone!! Tysm:) You're a saviour.
I try to follow a few hacks as well. 1. Setting up a timer while studying. 2. Asking my friends to push me so that I study 3. Redecorate my room every now and then because this helps me feel organized and not monotonous. 4. Morning Prayer. Morning prayer helps a lot! Communicating with the Al Mighty at the beginning of the day automatically makes you feel happy and active. 5. Sticky notes! Write down some taunts when you are wasting your time and you won't believe how effective that is.
I just have a tip - in addtion to what you shared. I keep everything as a to-do list on desk calender, reason because people should minimize the use of technology given that it actually consumes lot of energy (not electricity, but your brain, your eyes, your ears, everything) plus you get distracted easily. Putting things on desk/wall calender is an old way which our parents used to do and I think it is still the best way to stay organized.
Just a gentle reminder that I watch your videos at 1x speed because I genuinely believe that these videos deserve my time and also looking at your new setup , one would definitely think that you are a cinematographer.
Working out in the morning ! I've been doing this since the last month, and initially the change in schedule felt like it wasn't the right thing for me. But slowly things started falling in place, and now my day has been so much more productive. So devote the initial hours of the day to you body and not staring at the phone 🤓

You are just brilliant sir I'm a 23 year old girl working as a teacher in a school. From some days am listening & watching you, Your ideas are so inspiring. I have already tried some methods you mentioned in the video before listening you and they worked for me as well, now I'll try to follow those too which I have learn today Thank You so much for inspiring us
Except for one thing which is important, I loved everything, when you said you need to even plan a time for kids - that's what hit me. Being so productive that even parents have to make time for their kids. It is kind of sad. After all, being so productive that you miss being a dad or miss life overall isn't okay all of the time. People sometimes you just need to take breaks and live life may be. I have been watching all your videos you know for quite a long time now. But, that kid part man. Just heartbreaking. 💔
Getting to work has been a challenge to me as a freelancer. I can often tend to procrastinate and not get work done. At that time, I use the pomodoro technique to get started and build the flow. It goes like this: Schedule a 20 minutes timer and push yourself to work for that timeframe. Initially, the inertia would be strong and you'll feel distracted but eventually, you'll get into the flow of work. Many times, I've worked for longer than 20 minutes too. For this situation, it works every time!
The best thing that has worked for me in terms of productivity is to use an inbuilt android feature called as "Digital Well-being". It allows you to set timers on apps like social media, entertainment apps, etc and locks them till 12 am at night once you're out of time. It makes you ration your time on those apps as it's limited and it will otherwise get exhausted. It creates new reduced usage patterns for non-productive entertainment.
A sudden change in calender noticed by Ankur sir in morning @8, wife:- "dudh leke ana aur iss baar wheat bread leke ana pichle baar bhul gye the isiliye pin krliya calendar mai"😂😂😂😂😂. Just kiddi'n I loved this calender thing cuz I'm a great procrastinator. I love to forget things so that to extend my leisure time.
1. Don’t try and remember everything (carry 3 notebooks) - (ideas, to do list, note taking) 2. Document everything 3. Put everything on a calendar 4. Schedule email to self for sometime future 5. Use technology for everything you can use 6. Sharing Calendar with wife 7. Making whatsapp self groups 8. Having an afternoon nap 9. Setting the right environment 10. Doing things that activates your senses
Another thing that has worked for me and most people I know is the effect physical exercise has on boosting your productivity. Say you're just sitting in front of a screen all day, be it online class, work meetings, or just constantly sitting in your chair for extended periods of time, your back and shoulders are under stress. What you can do is some basic stretches for your back and shoulders (my university actually sent us videos for this by mail). Also, when you're feeling slumped in the afternoon or evening and you still have lots of stuff to get done, just 5-10 mins of walking helps clear the mental fog and you can get a fresh start to the task at hand.
I am a researcher. Sometimes it becomes impossible to get into the groove to do mental exercises and attain focus. In that case, I just do math. For half an hour. That brings me back into the zone. The flow is very important in the research where I can isolate myself from rest of the world and focus. Math is my gateway to do that.

Productivity hacks that works for me are: 1. Using my interstices for tasks like creating my to-do list, scheduling calendar, catch up with friends and family. 2. Identify time windows my brain is most active and present during the day and reserve them for the tasks that need max focus and attention.
I talk to god tht I am all shattered not feeling to do anything inspite of having job...I need motivation,my brain is all stuck...I came across ur channel and since then I m watching every single video.. amazing fantastic
It's always great to hear you! BTW after watching this I came to know 8 of those 10 things is what I'm already doing in my routine. I'm grateful for you to know me those 8 are actually good to follow!
I seriously liked many of your hacks. Beautifully explained sir. I instantly applied WhatsApp self group idea.(We can find it very easily scrolling at the bottom of WA. There were few groups where I was the only one left. So, now I used it for myself.) Even I had one idea which I didn't tell anyone. So I wrote it down on a diary and posted it in my personal WhatsApp repo. 😉 One thing I am already working on is.. the last hack you said.. Make home environment like Workplace. I already did it from last 1.6 years. And it helped me growing in my professional journey. It works for sure. Thank you Ankur 😇
I used to look at my phone quite frequently to look at Social Media apps which reduced my productivity. I will suggest few things which helped me: - Uninstall Apps (not deactivate account) which are not used frequently but their notifications gets your attention. You can always open your laptop and check the notifications when you have time. - Turn off the notifications of the apps if possible. - (Might not work for everyone) Remove the app from the home screen, it should be in the app drawer. Also, try to change the location from the drawer frequently as our hands will get used to the location they are currently on. I think Social Media are now an important part of life but we should be looking at them only when we want to socialize. The goal is that we should be looking at apps when we want, not when they ask us to. For urgency, people will Call, SMS or WhatsApp. We don't need to get notified of other things.
Finding the best person or best organization to invest your money is one of the most important financial decisions, Helen Walker is one I have seen.straight forward, honesty and trustworthy person
The older I get,the more I see a straight path where I want to go.if you're going to hunt elephant, don't get off the trail for a Rabbit, Helen Walker investment is was what I have been finding for years.i thank my friend Phillip for recommended Helen Walker investment.i will be everly be grateful to Helen Walker for her honesty and sincerity
I have always wanted to invest, but I'm very inexperienced.i even watched some video yet difficult to understand.i'm so much interest and in need of an expert
Hi Ankur, Loved many idea specifically whatsapp group and email scheduling. I personally use Google keep for notes and Google calendar. Very nice background for new videos.
I have a dog and he wakes me up everyday by 5.30a.m. This is such a happy alarm for me that really works in maintaining my sleep cycle even during lockdowns.
Hi liked your way of productivity hacks. But I think ur true self cathes up with u at some point and u throw it all . I have tried hacks like writing I still use a small pocket calender to write this down. But I don't know if its just me or everybody I just lose steam someway in between which can be very demotivating. Not to take away anything from u. Incredible video as always. Love ur content to the extent that my wife is jealous that u take away her time. He he he... Another good line I know about writing down which u can use in subsequent videos and talks. "Shortest pencil is longer than longest memory " "Anything which is written lasts longer than the longest memory " Makes up for most of what u said I believe.
Hey Ankur, I can very well resonate with these hacks. I remember my college & school days of taking running notes, drawing/scribbling (never knew which would be called mindmaps of new age :-D) something on my notebook while teachers/professors were teaching. Some of them wouldn't like us writing anything on paper but to listen to their lectures but I wasn't of that kind. That habit is still continuing but with restrictions because of my movement disorder (Neurological Condition). Still I could figure out the android's speech to text feature coupled with Google Notes, very handy. Moreover the self mailing hack for getting reminders, backing up things, managing limited free drive space by google all this came naturally as they say "need is the mother of all the innovations". I thing just because of parents embibing discipline right from the childhood is so significant in India. Nice to know that I am on the write track. I shall soon share my own productivity hacks evolved out of survival instinct & compulsion of leading life with dignity :-)
I am an intermediate student and watching this most inspiring video and he always helps us to tackle our problems that we used to face during studies ✌️✌️🔥🔥 excellent sir 😍
Few hack work well for me. 1.During work time in order to not get disturbed by notifications/messages on phone I turn on focus mode. I have work mode where I only give access to work relates apps. I have a self mode, where I give access to apps that will help me to learn something or just focus on my well being(messaging apps excluded). 2. Also I have created an extra Instagram account where I only follow accounts that help me with quotes, positive content and accounts related to my domain of work, so thereby I use Instagram just for personal and professional wellbeing. 3. Also I have set timers to all the apps I use most on a daily basis. And when the time is done it will disable the app for that day. These few hacks have helped me tremendously and I wish to implement more hacks from this video.
Great video. Can we have something on tackling procrastination and handling family responsibilities. This channel has been a great help for someone like me that has recently started their career. Thank you.
The single most important app that I have been using for my productivity for almost 4 years now is "Smarter Time". I have used and continue to use all kinds of productivity softwares and similar stuff, but none so religiously like smarter time. Overall, it's the second most imp. piece of software i use daily, after Google Assistant. Please use this and make a video on it if you love it cause I don't want this app to shut down as I haven't seen a lot of people using it and/or making videos on it. It really is a hidden gem in the universe of productivity (more like one of the infinity stones for productivity).
Two things worked for - Batching - Doing all thing one specific time. 2nd- Timer- I have set a timer one specific Task or for a meeting . 3rd-> I have kept two phones One Professional and Personal.
One productivity hack I follow is to never be in rush. Do everything without putting a constant pressure on myself that oh my god I have so much to do, I have very little time left etc. Which makes my brain to focus properly and improves my productivity.
Thank you sir for your generous act of sharing your knowledge, thaughts and experince with us to guide us in our journey of 'LIFE'. Watching your videos make me feel I am trying to be better than yesterday and this keeps me motivated❤❤❤
Listening on 1.25x. it's actually perfect at this speed. Love the new setup, but the book shelf wala background is ❤️. Fantastic, Value adding video as always. Thanks AW.
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I will definitely be adding some of these hacks to my to-do list. From last 4 years, I have been doing one hack of sending an email on my birthday with what I would like to achieve in the coming year. I keep looking at that email whenever I feel I need the motivation to be more productive.
Hello, Sir. Thank you so much for the hacks. I do practise some of them already. I'd like to add something to point no. 10 as discussed by you. I am a teacher and after taking too many classes in a row, I do get tired. I start feeling sleepy after lunch but, since taking a nap is NOT an option, I brush my teeth. That's right, I carry an extra toothbrush and a small tube of toothpaste in my bag. This works for me in making me better focussed and rejuvenated. If I'm at home and have quite a few tasks at hand AND I am tired, I take a bath, brush my teeth and apply perfume. It is not only refreshing but also effective in making the brain more alert and myself motivated to work.
I and my husband have 2 3whatap groups that we have created to store our data, to do list ..where we write all our expenses etc…n we also have pinned those groups… felt happy to see that we r already using your hack… kind of a achievement for me🤘🏻🤘🏻
I realized something today. I like your videos so much because it was my wish to create such content. You are Good Sir. When I see your videos I actually think I am speaking to the public and most of the content is a reassurance to me. I believe all these things and try to replicate it in my life.
Hey Ankur, turning of the notifications from all apps in phone , Skype, teams in laptop felt peaceful and made me focus on the work and not get distracted.
When I used to stay with my mum, she used to play songs every morning just to wake me up and at that time I always used to wonder why my mum does this, how it instantly wakes me up and the important part was that I woke up happy. Now, I know why was this happening. My mum is such a genius, she knows how to make me do anything and She'll do in such a way that I'll be happy doing that stuff.
@@ShreyBakhai no, of course you don't, I'm sure your mum is as awesome as mine, this is just something that she came up with because i was so reluctant waking up early.
Superb Hacks. Mostly I use them. The only thing I want to add is that - You become old only when you start thinking you are getting old. So Dear Brother - Be always YOUNG.
I m an teenager & i must say that i like your perspective to see the things in a simple way and more flexiable way as like ' Pani Ki एक-एक Boond se Khara padta hai' as most of the motivational youtuber only talk about motivation,race,competition that induces agression in our mind ,that competition that always resisited our flow of mind ......and one more things i like your voice it is so peacefull
1. Go for a walk..put some target on health apps..it somehow motivates and makes us happy after completing the target plus it adds value to health 2. Follow your passion it can be reading light book for 10 min..listening music..dancing...I do play guitar for that matter 3. Drink water..it may sound easy and not helpful...but it is.! It stimulates the tissues🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Actually its not only drinking water but drinking any hot liquid. Think of it cold makes us lazy so heat will make you energetic. Water is very good as it is hydrating. 70% of our body is made up of water and all the cellular processes happens with in aqueous environment. But I drink 4 -5 mugs of herbal tea (kehwa) everyday, which also adds in great antioxidants, antiinflammatory, immune boosting natural chemicals.
1. Do not try to remember anything, document everything. 2. I document everything, ideas, to-do list, taking notes(meetings. 3. Put everything on the calendar. I use the calendar to - block my time 4. I schedule emails to myself and receive them in the future. 5. I use technology for everything I can. X.ai(calendar scheduling tool), boomerang(for Gmail). 6. Share your calendar with people close to you. 7. Making Whatsapp self-group. One for images and videos, the other for ideas and thoughts. 8. Afternoon nap. 9. Setting the right environment. 10. Doing things that activate your senses.
I am 17 and I am using the WhatsApp group hack since last 3-4 yrs...it's honestly very helpful for getting my little tasks done...I liked a few other hacks too so gonna give them a try as well...thank you sir! And of course the background is awesome! ✨
You have such a vibe man. It’s so cute and wooden feeling and I just can’t express it. Like I wanna call you sir but then I get confused if I should call you bhaiya 💀. You have such a homey feeling it just feels good. Thanks for the advice, I knew these hacks but now you really put the nail in the coffin so I am gonna implement these today. Again thanks.
Very helpful video. Thanks for sharing these hacks. Fact: afternoon nap is known as qailulah in Arabic. Qailulah is the word used in Islamic literature to describe midday napping/siesta. Interestingly, Islam, the religion of the Muslims, advocates midday siesta as a form of religious practice since it was preferred by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
What a coincidence, yesterday itself I wrote on calendar in which company I would like to see myself working for.. And today i'm watching your video and you are talking about writing your important things on calendar... Wow!!!
Thanks a lot for this booster video. I am a sophomore at an engineering institute. I generally use forest app on my phone and laptop to block out the distractions I may be facing
Omg you are exactly like Adarsh , My husband. I lost him last month of covid. He used to do all the hacks you shared. He was just briliant. This video just popped on my screen today and reminded me of him. Thanks for sharing it to people.
One additional point I feel is 'eat less' our body doesn't require so much of food. Eating more will make our system to work more and we end up feeling fatigue.

Time Blocks are a great way to allocate time and not overwhelm ourselves with tasks and be “busy” instead of being “productive”!
That's like my major issue. I stay busy instead of being productive. Please suggest a good time blocking app, if you know one. Thanks!
I like to block time, but external issues like phone calls come into the way, what to do?
Getting to work has been a challenge to me as a freelancer. I can often tend to procrastinate and not get work done. At that time, I use the pomodoro technique to get started and build the flow.
It goes like this: Schedule a 20 minutes timer and push yourself to work for that timeframe. Initially, the inertia would be strong and you'll feel distracted but eventually, you'll get into the flow of work. Many times, I've worked for longer than 20 minutes too. For this situation, it works every time!
The best thing that has worked for me in terms of productivity is to use an inbuilt android feature called as "Digital Well-being".
It allows you to set timers on apps like social media, entertainment apps, etc and locks them till 12 am at night once you're out of time. It makes you ration your time on those apps as it's limited and it will otherwise get exhausted. It creates new reduced usage patterns for non-productive entertainment.
On point one, I'd add: Get a bullet journal and a whiteboard for to-do list, I have the smallest whiteboard in my room for to-dos.
A sudden change in calender noticed by Ankur sir in morning @8, wife:- "dudh leke ana aur iss baar wheat bread leke ana pichle baar bhul gye the isiliye pin krliya calendar mai"😂😂😂😂😂.
Just kiddi'n
I loved this calender thing cuz I'm a great procrastinator. I love to forget things so that to extend my leisure time.
🤣
Noting down the random ideas you get is the best thing because once it goes out of your mind it is very hard to recollect.
1. Don’t try and remember everything (carry 3 notebooks) - (ideas, to do list, note taking)
2. Document everything
3. Put everything on a calendar
4. Schedule email to self for sometime future
5. Use technology for everything you can use
6. Sharing Calendar with wife
7. Making whatsapp self groups
8. Having an afternoon nap
9. Setting the right environment
10. Doing things that activates your senses

Nice
how can a person carries so much positivity with conviction of doing something else. Day by day 'm liking this man more
Another thing that has worked for me and most people I know is the effect physical exercise has on boosting your productivity. Say you're just sitting in front of a screen all day, be it online class, work meetings, or just constantly sitting in your chair for extended periods of time, your back and shoulders are under stress. What you can do is some basic stretches for your back and shoulders (my university actually sent us videos for this by mail). Also, when you're feeling slumped in the afternoon or evening and you still have lots of stuff to get done, just 5-10 mins of walking helps clear the mental fog and you can get a fresh start to the task at hand.
I am a researcher. Sometimes it becomes impossible to get into the groove to do mental exercises and attain focus. In that case, I just do math. For half an hour. That brings me back into the zone. The flow is very important in the research where I can isolate myself from rest of the world and focus. Math is my gateway to do that.

Well, it is an amazing intro!
Productivity hacks that works for me are:
1. Using my interstices for tasks like creating my to-do list, scheduling calendar, catch up with friends and family.
2. Identify time windows my brain is most active and present during the day and reserve them for the tasks that need max focus and attention.
I talk to god tht I am all shattered not feeling to do anything inspite of having job...I need motivation,my brain is all stuck...I came across ur channel and since then I m watching every single video.. amazing fantastic
This new background can be described by one word EPIC🔥❤️
I once read that making your most favourite song as the alarm tone eventually makes it your most hated song.
Happened with me once . How my alarm tone is pikachu
It's always great to hear you!
BTW after watching this I came to know 8 of those 10 things is what I'm already doing in my routine.
I'm grateful for you to know me those 8 are actually good to follow!
I seriously liked many of your hacks.
Beautifully explained sir.
I instantly applied WhatsApp self group idea.(We can find it very easily scrolling at the bottom of WA. There were few groups where I was the only one left. So, now I used it for myself.)
Even I had one idea which I didn't tell anyone. So I wrote it down on a diary and posted it in my personal WhatsApp repo. 😉
One thing I am already working on is.. the last hack you said.. Make home environment like Workplace. I already did it from last 1.6 years. And it helped me growing in my professional journey.
It works for sure.
Thank you Ankur 😇
The environment is more powerful than you. Have Accountability Partner
I used to look at my phone quite frequently to look at Social Media apps which reduced my productivity. I will suggest few things which helped me:
- Uninstall Apps (not deactivate account) which are not used frequently but their notifications gets your attention. You can always open your laptop and check the notifications when you have time.
- Turn off the notifications of the apps if possible.
- (Might not work for everyone) Remove the app from the home screen, it should be in the app drawer. Also, try to change the location from the drawer frequently as our hands will get used to the location they are currently on.
I think Social Media are now an important part of life but we should be looking at them only when we want to socialize. The goal is that we should be looking at apps when we want, not when they ask us to.
For urgency, people will Call, SMS or WhatsApp. We don't need to get notified of other things.

Hi Ankur,
Loved many idea specifically whatsapp group and email scheduling.
I personally use Google keep for notes and Google calendar. Very nice background for new videos.
Can you tell me which video is this
I also use Google keep for notes and Google to do
Hi Mukesh, Thanks for your hard work and helping us out with our professional career or aquiring skillsets.
@@sancharidas7532 thank u so much Sanchari 😊 and glad to hear that we both have same menter @Ankur Warikoo
oh yeah he is amazing.
I have a dog and he wakes me up everyday by 5.30a.m. This is such a happy alarm for me that really works in maintaining my sleep cycle even during lockdowns.
Hi liked your way of productivity hacks. But I think ur true self cathes up with u at some point and u throw it all . I have tried hacks like writing I still use a small pocket calender to write this down. But I don't know if its just me or everybody I just lose steam someway in between which can be very demotivating. Not to take away anything from u. Incredible video as always. Love ur content to the extent that my wife is jealous that u take away her time. He he he...
Another good line I know about writing down which u can use in subsequent videos and talks.
"Shortest pencil is longer than longest memory "
"Anything which is written lasts longer than the longest memory "
Makes up for most of what u said I believe.
Hey Ankur, I can very well resonate with these hacks. I remember my college & school days of taking running notes, drawing/scribbling (never knew which would be called mindmaps of new age :-D) something on my notebook while teachers/professors were teaching. Some of them wouldn't like us writing anything on paper but to listen to their lectures but I wasn't of that kind. That habit is still continuing but with restrictions because of my movement disorder (Neurological Condition). Still I could figure out the android's speech to text feature coupled with Google Notes, very handy. Moreover the self mailing hack for getting reminders, backing up things, managing limited free drive space by google all this came naturally as they say "need is the mother of all the innovations". I thing just because of parents embibing discipline right from the childhood is so significant in India. Nice to know that I am on the write track. I shall soon share my own productivity hacks evolved out of survival instinct & compulsion of leading life with dignity :-)
I am an intermediate student and watching this most inspiring video and he always helps us to tackle our problems that we used to face during studies ✌️✌️🔥🔥 excellent sir 😍
Stop ✋ Saying : “मैं बूढ़ा हो गया हूँ” You are young & looks young also.
Par mai toh 14 saal ka hun

Few hack work well for me.
1.During work time in order to not get disturbed by notifications/messages on phone I turn on focus mode.
I have work mode where I only give access to work relates apps.
I have a self mode, where I give access to apps that will help me to learn something or just focus on my well being(messaging apps excluded).
2. Also I have created an extra Instagram account where I only follow accounts that help me with quotes, positive content and accounts related to my domain of work, so thereby I use Instagram just for personal and professional wellbeing.
3. Also I have set timers to all the apps I use most on a daily basis. And when the time is done it will disable the app for that day.
These few hacks have helped me tremendously and I wish to implement more hacks from this video.
The best productivity hack I know is love what you do. When you do things with love and passion everything falls in place automatically.
just want to suggest that if we keep favourite song as our alarm, eventually we start hating that song because its breaking our sleep every morning .
Hahaha. Hasn’t happened with me
I was going to say the same thing 😂😂😂
Yeah I agree to that. I too end up hating that song😂😂. Having an enough sleep is also important so it's easier to wake up.
Then I guess, that means some other song is your favorite now & its time to change your alarm tone!!
You have not just said the fact but its literally a true reality😂😂😂
Google Keep
my 2nd most used app🙌🏼
Most used one?
@@MayankRoyYT 😂 TH-cam
Great video. Can we have something on tackling procrastination and handling family responsibilities. This channel has been a great help for someone like me that has recently started their career. Thank you.
The single most important app that I have been using for my productivity for almost 4 years now is "Smarter Time".
I have used and continue to use all kinds of productivity softwares and similar stuff, but none so religiously like smarter time.
Overall, it's the second most imp. piece of software i use daily, after Google Assistant.
Please use this and make a video on it if you love it cause I don't want this app to shut down as I haven't seen a lot of people using it and/or making videos on it. It really is a hidden gem in the universe of productivity (more like one of the infinity stones for productivity).
Two things worked for - Batching - Doing all thing one specific time.
2nd- Timer- I have set a timer one specific Task or for a meeting .
3rd-> I have kept two phones One Professional and Personal.
Blown away by the production quality of this video! Excited for more :D
Yay, thank you!
Your content is really amazing and refreshing
Yeah truly! Thanks for the comment!
Nice setup ankur!
One productivity hack I follow is to never be in rush. Do everything without putting a constant pressure on myself that oh my god I have so much to do, I have very little time left etc. Which makes my brain to focus properly and improves my productivity.
Self Whatsapp groups. I follow this for a lot of years and people call me weird, but it's a great hack for productivity and remembers things.
My first investment with her earned me profit of over $25,530 US dollars ever since then he has been delivering
Thank you sir for your generous act of sharing your knowledge, thaughts and experince with us to guide us in our journey of 'LIFE'. Watching your videos make me feel I am trying to be better than yesterday and this keeps me motivated❤❤❤
So nice of you
Listening on 1.25x. it's actually perfect at this speed. Love the new setup, but the book shelf wala background is ❤️.
Fantastic, Value adding video as always. Thanks AW.
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I will definitely be adding some of these hacks to my to-do list.
From last 4 years, I have been doing one hack of sending an email on my birthday with what I would like to achieve in the coming year. I keep looking at that email whenever I feel I need the motivation to be more productive.
Hello, Sir.
Thank you so much for the hacks. I do practise some of them already. I'd like to add something to point no. 10 as discussed by you. I am a teacher and after taking too many classes in a row, I do get tired. I start feeling sleepy after lunch but, since taking a nap is NOT an option, I brush my teeth. That's right, I carry an extra toothbrush and a small tube of toothpaste in my bag. This works for me in making me better focussed and rejuvenated. If I'm at home and have quite a few tasks at hand AND I am tired, I take a bath, brush my teeth and apply perfume. It is not only refreshing but also effective in making the brain more alert and myself motivated to work.
I and my husband have 2 3whatap groups that we have created to store our data, to do list ..where we write all our expenses etc…n we also have pinned those groups… felt happy to see that we r already using your hack… kind of a achievement for me🤘🏻🤘🏻
I think because of the new set up people will implement your ideas more often from now.XD
In-short😎
Our mind is THINKING DEVICE !
Not a STORAGE DEVICE 🤠👍
Am i right? @Ankur sir🙏
Very True. Rightly said
I realized something today. I like your videos so much because it was my wish to create such content. You are Good Sir. When I see your videos I actually think I am speaking to the public and most of the content is a reassurance to me. I believe all these things and try to replicate it in my life.
Hey Ankur, turning of the notifications from all apps in phone , Skype, teams in laptop felt peaceful and made me focus on the work and not get distracted.
Loved the new background
DO EPIC SHIT
When I used to stay with my mum, she used to play songs every morning just to wake me up and at that time I always used to wonder why my mum does this, how it instantly wakes me up and the important part was that I woke up happy. Now, I know why was this happening. My mum is such a genius, she knows how to make me do anything and She'll do in such a way that I'll be happy doing that stuff.
Wow I need your mom instead of mine😂👊
@@ShreyBakhai no, of course you don't, I'm sure your mum is as awesome as mine, this is just something that she came up with because i was so reluctant waking up early.
@@priyankagupta8483 I'm joking ofcourse. What psycho would want to swap moms😂Anyways, I'd love if you could check out my TH-cam channel sometime😊
@@ShreyBakhai hahaha! Of course, I will.
@@priyankagupta8483 👊Hope you stay with it for the long term!
Watched this video in 2x 👍
Ankur, I am the productivity geek now :p
Superb Hacks. Mostly I use them. The only thing I want to add is that - You become old only when you start thinking you are getting old.
So Dear Brother - Be always YOUNG.
I m an teenager & i must say that i like your perspective to see the things in a simple way and more flexiable way as like ' Pani Ki एक-एक Boond se Khara padta hai' as most of the motivational youtuber only talk about motivation,race,competition that induces agression in our mind ,that competition that always resisited our flow of mind ......and one more things i like your voice it is so peacefull
1. Go for a walk..put some target on health apps..it somehow motivates and makes us happy after completing the target plus it adds value to health
2. Follow your passion it can be reading light book for 10 min..listening music..dancing...I do play guitar for that matter
3. Drink water..it may sound easy and not helpful...but it is.! It stimulates the tissues🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Actually its not only drinking water but drinking any hot liquid. Think of it cold makes us lazy so heat will make you energetic. Water is very good as it is hydrating. 70% of our body is made up of water and all the cellular processes happens with in aqueous environment. But I drink 4 -5 mugs of herbal tea (kehwa) everyday, which also adds in great antioxidants, antiinflammatory, immune boosting natural chemicals.
0:23 as always best part of the video😂😂😂😂
1. Do not try to remember anything, document everything.
2. I document everything, ideas, to-do list, taking notes(meetings.
3. Put everything on the calendar. I use the calendar to - block my time
4. I schedule emails to myself and receive them in the future.
5. I use technology for everything I can. X.ai(calendar scheduling tool), boomerang(for Gmail).
6. Share your calendar with people close to you.
7. Making Whatsapp self-group. One for images and videos, the other for
ideas and thoughts.
8. Afternoon nap.
9. Setting the right environment.
10. Doing things that activate your senses.
I am 17 and I am using the WhatsApp group hack since last 3-4 yrs...it's honestly very helpful for getting my little tasks done...I liked a few other hacks too so gonna give them a try as well...thank you sir! And of course the background is awesome! ✨
You have such a vibe man. It’s so cute and wooden feeling and I just can’t express it. Like I wanna call you sir but then I get confused if I should call you bhaiya 💀. You have such a homey feeling it just feels good. Thanks for the advice, I knew these hacks but now you really put the nail in the coffin so I am gonna implement these today. Again thanks.
I have watched 100s of videos, no one talked about that whatsapp group hack. This is something I follow. I am feeling good that you have mentioned it.
Productivity hack no 11: listening to Ankur daily and improving day by day
Reason behind this, Hindi hit me more than English. Aasha h m aapki essi koi video hindi m dekh paau.
I spend 15-30 min every evening to review my next day activities and that help me feel more in charge and what to expect.
That whatsapp self group I've been using this hack for 4 years. It's the most convenient way to take note of anything. I repeat most convenient.
I am already doing hack number 7 since last 2 years, happy to see this hack here.
Very helpful video. Thanks for sharing these hacks.
Fact: afternoon nap is known as qailulah in Arabic. Qailulah is the word used in Islamic literature to describe midday napping/siesta. Interestingly, Islam, the religion of the Muslims, advocates midday siesta as a form of religious practice since it was preferred by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
2x works for me fine.
Great content Sir.
I always keep myself productive by being creative like playing the Guitar or painting that's my way of being productive.
Waking in morning early boosts my productivity very much!
What a coincidence, yesterday itself I wrote on calendar in which company I would like to see myself working for.. And today i'm watching your video and you are talking about writing your important things on calendar... Wow!!!
Thanks a lot for this booster video. I am a sophomore at an engineering institute.
I generally use forest app on my phone and laptop to block out the distractions I may be facing
Omg you are exactly like Adarsh , My husband. I lost him last month of covid. He used to do all the hacks you shared. He was just briliant. This video just popped on my screen today and reminded me of him. Thanks for sharing it to people.
The most amazing vedio I have ever seen. So effective and powerful. Thanks Ankur. Love ❤
Starting to work early in the morning between 5 to 6 Am helped me to grow my productivity.
One additional point I feel is 'eat less' our body doesn't require so much of food. Eating more will make our system to work more and we end up feeling fatigue.
