Essentialism gang

@BattlefieldSailor 4 года назад

Alex Gubar start with the big things or you’ll never fit them in. Life is far too short for only doing what is essential. Take breaks, turn up the burner on hobbies, creativity, and vacation. Start with work though, and focus to get in and get out. Money is a tool to do the rest, and work and service is the rent we pay to others for our time here.

The acceleration addiction is so real! 🔆 Notes 1. Create obligations 2. Identify negative external factors and figure out what truly makes you happy and focus on the latter 3. Work intensely. Cut out low value activities

That metaphor though: mindlessly scrolling on social media doesn't fall into one of the burners (work, health, relationships, hobbies), it's more like poking a hole in the gasline. I mean there's a LOT of things that are the equivalent of poking holes in the gasline. But the wording of that just made my brain pull an AHA moment.

Here's my 1% Rule log for this video: - Lots of effort put into the thumbnail's composition; it stitches multiple pictures together (see the process in the Production highlight reel on my Instagram profile: instagram.com/tomfrankly/ ) - Heavy, heavy sound design - made use of a lot of panning, reverb, and clip-specific EQ to achieve a better mix - Learned how to create a rising number counter in After Effects, along with a manually-created LCD screen effect - First use of a 360 camera What is the 1% Rule? Essentially, it's the idea that you should aim to get 1% better with each piece of work you do, instead of pressuring yourself to create "perfect" work. Over time, these 1% improvements add up as long as you're consistent. More info, along with my journal for all videos, here: thomasjfrank.com/my-1-rule-journal/ P.S. - how balanced does your life feel to you right now?

@rusinsr 4 года назад

You have an extra parenthesis at the end of your instagram URL ;) I'm a pretty new viewer, so take this following criticism with a grain of salt, but your videos are better at 1.25x speed or more. (i.e., feel slow at normal speed) Great stuff though!

@Thomasfrank 4 года назад

This is exactly what I needed. An unknown fear of losing has made me push myself too hard for the past couple of weeks and I have hit a stone wall, a burnout. I should start worrying about my work alone and try to keep all the burners on in a balanced way. Thanks Tom!

Just an appreciation comment for all of your support into my life all these years with your videos. I started watching you when I was a freshman in 2017. Now I'm a graduate on my 2nd job and currently starting my own company, but specially a productivity machine always learning new things and trying to be my best self. Keep up the good work Thomas

@myname_isblaine 4 года назад

9:50 "The value of time isn’t determined solely by the amount of time itself, but also by the intensity and the strategic value of the effort that you exert during it." Brilliant. Sometimes I already know what I should be doing, but I can't bring myself to commit to it. The way you word things brings a new way of thinking about common and consistent problems. This sort of mental trickery is exactly why I susbcribed.

@riverraines270 4 года назад

I'm proud of myself for absolutely quitting Instagram, I've never been this productive. And obviously Thomas's videos help heaps.

@ersimn 4 года назад

I really like what you said about the fact that we have so many possibilities nowadays. I'm very thankful to live in an age with access to so many content and be privileged enough to be able to go after what interests me, but sometimes I do feel absolutely overwhelmed by the number of things I'd like to do. And even when I'm doing a lot of these things - things that I enjoy - it often feels like I did not do enough. Thank you so much for this video, great content as usual.

As someone that has watched your stuff for the past 5 years, I really appreciate that you're putting a lot of care in presenting your ideas more deeply and beautifully. And by the way, nice haircut!

@darKMasterPy 4 года назад

Thomas, I followed your videos like 2 or 3 years ago and there is so much improvement I can say I applied to my college life, now that I finished most of it just waiting for finishing my thesis! I like your videos because they are simple, well scripted and you can see you are almost always pursuing getting better in your contents, and also for me, not a native English speaker, it is really good to hear you, because I am practicing all the time at the same time, I learn new vocabulary, phonetics, you are really good at intonation and you make yourself clear when you speak. Just thank you, great man!

@krispy777 4 года назад

Your videos are becoming more professional and mature looking over time. Additionally, it’s nice to see parts of your humour appear in B roll clips. I’m glad you were able to find an editor that understands and shares the same vision for each video. You allowed yourself to focus on research and script writing without a major concern for the editing of the final product. It is really tough to trust others, even with simple things, when one has perfectionist tendencies. Be proud :) And finally, thank you for sharing the process of how you made this thumbnail on Instagram.
