Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Thanks for posting this. I'm studying for the Bar (lawyer test) and the exam is this coming Tuesday and Wednesday. The video put a lot of things into perspective. Although I didn't get to spend this summer with my family and friends, I am making a sacrifice for my future. After next week, I can give my time to the people I care about, but until then, I'm gonna study hard to pass the exam.
Great (philosophical) points were made. โHaving timeโ vs โprioritizingโ could have been exploited more...
This is cool. Personally, I've been following the GTD method since I read David Allen's book.It helps me prioritize and plan my task every morning. It's become my routine, just like brushing teeth. I work within Outlook so I also use a free CRM which is embedded into Outlook and goes hand in hand with the GTD method. Recommended.
I understood the point, but it was a very poor presentation imo. Lots of obviously fake anecdotes, contradictions, no logical progression of ideas..
For a video on time management, he was so sloooooow!
I prefer "The Philosophy of Time Travel"
In my opinion the speech is 6/10. The author's statement about the past makes me think that he hasn't been very consciousness of his speech. In my view his statement was born by his cognitive bias (decilnism), but I'm not trying to say whether his statement is close to reality or not.
In my opinion, the speaker in this speech had an inclination to use abstract and vague words like "really" "the right" and bold statements, like "our great great parents did not complain about not having time". I think that for a person to make such statement he/she should collect information and, by using tools such as statistics, deduce that whether its probable or not.
I do enjoy how he worked with his gestures and voice. Some ideas was familiar to me, but he, in my opinion, presented them in a little new way. Such as the idea of Albert Camus of the answer to suicide (in The Myth of Sisyphus if I remember correctly) with an a way to approach definition of "effectiveness".
