As someone who has ADHD, this was absolutely amazing. The fact that you acknowledged that in the beginning made me feel so much better compared to other productivity tips videos I have watched. As well as your tips are stuff that actually sound better suited for me than most other productivity tips. Cannot wait for the planner !!!

@leftoverdeluxe Год назад

I have ADHD as well and the paralysis has been ruining my life :(

@celia8709 Год назад

The aknowledgement 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I massively appreciate what she did. There’s also so much misconception around it, it’s real and we’re not just lazy. I’ve finished a PhD, I’m a lecturer, and I struggle and have struggled since I was a child. I’m so glad she gave it some visibility.

@hannahrose. Год назад

Agreed! I also have ADHD and it was so refreshing to have Grace mention this at the beginning. So many productivity advisers forget that all of us have different ways of thinking and working, it’s not a one size fits all. I will say however, Grace, these tips are amazing! I think they will absolutely work for many ADHDers. I don’t think I’ve ever watched a video that hits home so hard. I’m gutted I missed out on the preorder of the planner! Really hope I can pick one up somehow. I’ll definitely be incorporating these tips in to my day. Thanks so much for the video Grace, as always fantastic advice offered in a clear, to the point, no BS approach- you are brilliant! (Also, please release another journal batch order, I need one in my life 😆)

@destinyJoeliva Год назад

Same here. The table is an amazing idea too I feel like for an adhder it really helps because that’s all we ever want…compartments for life haha

@stephaniechmielewski Год назад

SAME! Being ADHD and ADD is so hard 😩

@jecoliaha282 Год назад

1. Stop doing to-do lists - split them up into quick ticks, tasks, projects and schedule weekly 2. Write out your 3 negotiables daily 3. Mix in light and deep work into your day 4. Realize how much time it takes you to do specific tasks 5. Figure out how long it takes you to lose concentrations over each sector in tip #1 6. Work alongside yourself not against 7. Make your own deadlines 8. Do your to-do list table at the end of each day

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD and I’ve been digging like a mad woman for tips lol loved that you acknowledged it & appreciated the reminded “you’re not failing, just failing to plan” ✨✨✨ P.S purchased the planner 🌈🌈🌈

@emmanethery73 Год назад

Love your vids

@naomiworth4551 Год назад

I have ADHD and almost cried when you mentioned it - just a bit of sympathy goes so far! Thank you for a wonderful video :)

@tayahbennett5834 Год назад

Me too!!! I have never watched a video when someone mentioned that and I felt so seen for the first time. Productivity is so hard and it’s amazing when someone acknowledges that ❤

@bl8388 3 месяца назад

Also have ADHD and fantastic to hear that. She can then provide those insights she has learned that work for her, while acknowledging it may not all work the same way for all people.

@aliabdaal Год назад

Love it

@jadeelizabeth2780 Год назад

This was so refreshingly honest and realistic. No one seems to talk about how important rest and relaxation is AS WELL AS how important working hard is

@GrowWithWill Год назад

Agree with #2. Finishing just a few simple tasks can you give that sense of fulfillment and help you avoid feeling overwhelmed or burned out. Folks, you might have a lot on your plate but don't forget to rest and take it easy on yourself. Awesome video!

@bink6565 Год назад

I actually looked up at my screen with surprise when you mentioned ADHD. Nobody has ever done that before in a video I've seen, especially videos about productivity. Thank you so much for acknowledging the ADHD community and how things can be different and more difficult for us

@daisyblake72 Год назад

I felt the exact same!

@erinnicolesullivan Год назад

As someone with ADHD, a. Thank you so much for acknowledging us, and b. This is how I personally would adapt this to make it ADHD friendly for ME: Time blocking: I block time as well, but instead of “here is two hours during which I will get this done” I say “for two hours I will set a timer and do this task” - that way if I don’t finish it within two hours (which I probably won’t), I still accomplished my goal of working on it AND I gained a little more insight into how long this type of task might take. I will generally time block my day, work on things in chunks until my timer goes off (1 hour of studying, 1 hour of cleaning, 1 hour of studying, 30 min lunch, 1 hour studying, etc). By the end of the day I am honestly not on schedule anymore, because I allow myself the flexibility to get off schedule within reason. Tasks that are lower priority and/or easier for me to initiate (usually for me this is cooking, cleaning, things that I usually do while putting off desk work), I allow myself to stop midway through when my timer goes off and pick up later. For tasks that are harder to initiate like clerical work, studying, writing, etc., I will try my best to find a good place to leave off AND make a concrete plan of exactly what starting back up again will look like (when I come back to studying, the first thing I will do is watch this lecture video…). Another way I allow myself to get off schedule is if my timer goes off during a less motivating task and I happen to be in the zone, I will quickly check what my next task is and, as long as it’s not a major priority, I will ignore that timer and get as much as I can out of this chunk of motivation. It’s not a perfect solution but when you have ADHD, nothing is!! Of course another great tip for ADHD is using frequent rewards (having that timer go off, whether you’re going to respect it or not, tells you GOOD JOB you met a check point! And that in and of itself can be motivating.)

@camillat984 Год назад

So true that these tips work amazingly for ADHDers. I need quick ticks to build up my motivation and I need short lists to prevent overwhelm!!

@annikasophie6504 Год назад

Been doing this for about a week after changing my organisation method with different planners and calendars for YEARS like every single week and this method truly is life changing!! 🥺🥺

@ThirtySecondsToSam Год назад

Teacher here ☝ Why have I never thought about planning specific quick ticks to do in that first hour when I arrive at school rather than just sitting at my computer a bit dazed??? Also can confirm turning off the email noise was life changing and I physically cringe when I hear it go off in other classrooms in the middle of a bloody lesson. Thank u for excellent tips 🥰

@lib9381 Год назад

Just ordered mine! I cannot WAIT! - Since reading the book my productivity has skyrocketed and I just feel so much less stressed - thank you Grace 🤩🤩

@Allieischill Год назад

If only all managers helped their direct reports use this method 😫 it would make a world of a difference if we all utilized time blocks in this manner and stuck to our schedules. 10/10 LOVE THIS GRACE!

@arqspirit Год назад

OMG. I´ve LOVED this definition of productivity SO MUCH, it literally BLOWS MY MIND! Thank you so much 💖

@EmberInk Год назад

This video is exactly what I need right now. Grace, you are speaking to my soul 😂 I do need to work alongside myself instead of against myself. I've been SO overwhelmed lately, and now I'm kind of looking forward to getting myself together with these tips...

@TheCarinoSadLove Год назад

I have been using these tips from Grace since long time ago when she first ever vlogged on youtube and she’s truly a life saver and productivity queen, they helped me through uni and a lot more in daily life even though now I’m a sahm! Love it! 💗

@celinaschreiner584 Год назад

When your book came out I started to make my own notebook/journal to match all your tips and it helped me so much! I am so ordering this notebook!! 😍 love it love it love it - and love you!

@Miranda-xy9dd Год назад

Can not tell you how much I needed this at exactly this moment. Felt overwhelmed, took a break from work and clicked on to RU-vid and this video was sitting right at the top of my homepage like a little godsend. Feel so much more equipped to do my work having watched this. Thank you!!

@heyheyitsJoanna Год назад

love this planner -- I'm always on the look-out for one with an hourly breakdown cause there are so many segments to my day and I don't want to think about what to do when I get to each one. And the segmented to-dos! TY!

@brittanyfaith6322 Год назад

I have a corporate job but have complete control over my schedule. While that sounds nice, as someone with ADHD it can be a nightmare because I’m constantly burning out. I’ve been hesitant to time blocking and I always start my day by stressing about my week… I’m going to put these two productivity videos to the test this week!! Thank you!

@lanlan762 Год назад

The task list is AMAZING. I hate lists but I need them and it gets overwhelming. Your method is so good!!!

@Ctrl_Alt_Elite Год назад

Thanks so much for this! I was doing this consistently for a while, then life was just disrupted by a tonne of things. I knew most of these concepts but I forgot how to apply them. Really appreciate you bundling this into a video that people can come back to. Hoping to start getting things back on track this week 🍻

@emz3565 Год назад

I enjoy how genuine you are here to basically give the structure of your planner and your days in depth, when you're looking to sell a productivity tool which includes what you've said. Can tell you're passionate about this and genuinely want to help people with their existence and not suffer (as well as making some dollar). You're a good egg and you're very realistic here (Re not doing it all, that ADHD will be different etc.)

@edus82 11 месяцев назад

Non negotiable: finally booking that doctors appointment that you’ve been postponing for ages. - 😅 I felt as if you were talking to me directly 😂

@vanliu9378 Год назад

Can't wait to get the planner! Being a Pilates instructor & digital freelancer after reading your book and doing to-do tables as changed my life. Each hr is so important cause there are times where I just can't do anything else.

@EmiliaOHara Год назад

I'm 5 minutes in and I just want to say thank you. From someone who looks like their life is perfect it's great to hear you also find inputting systems and work stuff hard. I really needed to hear that it's not just me. X

@esmemummy5945 Год назад

I just clicked on your video and i love your mindset. The way you talk and what you say. Honestly i needed to see this video!! Thank you!! I absolutely cannot stand youtubers that are so far away from reality but you are so down to earth and so real with things.

@laurenlizphoto 10 месяцев назад

I fully re-watch this semi-regularly because (A) you're hilarious and (B) I'm so with you on the passion for being efficient and productive and organized and this is just all completely brilliant!

@ajaoneal6499 Год назад

This is one of the first videos that I've been able to follow along and genuinely resonate with! You hit on every single topic perfectly and acknowledging that integrating these tips into your life slowly for true progress instead of sprinting was the perfect touch. Please keep us updated on when/if your planner will be back in stock!

@laurasolah13 Год назад

i literally started crying after what you said in the beginning about adhd (its been a tough day lol). hearing someone without adhd acknowledge the struggles and how productivity advice might have to look different for us with adhd was so validating and very comforting. thank you for this video

@teenagetommytwatface Год назад

Grace, you've literally hit the nail on the head on what I'm suffering with when it comes to productivity. Working for myself I find it hard to plan my days, which as you mentioned comes down to planning your weeks / planning what projects / planning what quick tasks go into those projects. You've not only given me clarity, but also motivation that someone as successful as yourself has suffered with procrastination and hates the burn-out culture. Thanks for this video and look forward to hopefully seeing more of your videos based around this topic.

@mariaprendeville7456 Год назад

I also work for myself (go you!) And I find plugging everything for the day/week into my Google calendar, it makes work look so much more realistic. Before I'd just write that general to do list and feel so overwhelmed. Breaking it up into how Grace suggests along with putting it into Google calendar is so helpful!!

@angeldiamonds Год назад

Thank you so much for this. I find it so difficult to control myself from overworking sometimes it drives me crazy. So I’m really trying to section it off into different tasks to feel like I did accomplish something.
