Live Encore: Productivity Exercises for a More Meaningful Life

via Skillshare

Overview

Learn to work more efficiently towards the things that matter most to you.

Whenever YouTuber and podcaster Ali Abdaal gets asked how he’s so productive all the time, he says his secret is that he’s working towards something he really cares about. In this 50-minute class—recorded using Zoom and featuring participation from the Skillshare community—he’ll dig into this idea of rooting your productivity systems in meaning, with plenty of actionable strategies to implement.

You’ll start with a discussion of the ways Ali’s view of productivity has changed over the years, and why he’s now focusing on “meaningful productivity.” Then, you’ll go through some exercises and journal prompts that have helped Ali move the needle towards spending his time efficiently and on the most important things. Students who participated in the live session were able to ask questions, giving you even more insight into Ali’s ideas around productivity.

Perfect for anyone looking to make their days feel a little more purposeful, all you need to participate is your calendar and task organizer (digital or paper).
