1
So, this is my everyday carry.
2
As someone who's trying to achieve his goals and reduce distractions, I try to be very intentional about what I carry with me every day.
3
In today's video, I'm going to share with you the everyday carry that helps me reduce distractions and stay more focused.
4
Starting with what I carry inside my pockets, my daily driver is this old iPhone XR.
5
I really love this phone because of how minimal it is.
6
Most people think that the reason they get distracted is because of their phones or social media, but I'd rather say the problem goes a little deeper.
7
It's really a matter of design.
8
Instead of asking how to use your phone less, I think it's more useful to ask what you actually want your phone to do.
9
Once you define that, you can see whether those tasks compete with each other.
10
If they do, then separating them across different devices often becomes the best solution.
11
That doesn't mean dividing your phone into a hundred different devices for no reason.
12
It simply means giving each device a clear purpose.
13
That's exactly why I like this phone so much.
14
Because this thing doesn't have the latest specs, I can actually use it instead of being used by it.
15
I'd say that the lack of high-end features, like a fancy display and a giant battery, is actually what makes this phone so good for me.
16
It simply makes me use my phone in a more intentional way, which ultimately helps me live more in the present moment and stay more focused while working toward my goals.
17
My daily screen time has been ridiculously low these days.
18
Currently, I mostly use it for listening to music, recording these videos, making calls, and texting some friends.
19
The reason all of these tasks can coexist on the same device is because they don't really compete with each other.
20
To give you a dumb but real example, I don't feel the need to use the camera instead of making a phone call.
21
That's also why I don't think it makes sense to buy a separate device for every simple task.
22
In cases like these, having more devices just becomes impractical.
23
I also used to read on it.
24
But recently I replaced it with this thing, which brings us to the next upgrade.
25
Recently I bought this tiny e-reader.
26
I guess you've all heard about it, but this is the Xtink X4.
27
It's a really simple device with only one function, reading books.
28
Actually, you can't do anything else on this thing, besides reading books and customizing it.
29
Before buying this, I used to read a lot on my phone.
30
However, it ended up making my eyes hurt, especially when reading at night.
31
I was literally cooking my eyes.
32
This thing is really good because it causes virtually no eye strain at all, because it has no backlight.
33
I actually stopped my bad habit of sometimes reading until 3am.
34
Besides the notebook that I keep inside my backpack, I also carry this mini journal.
35
I've been using it for about a month now, and it has helped me a lot with capturing insights and and important ideas that come to mind.
36
This one in particular is from a brand called Mi Plus and it's actually made out of real leather, which feels really nice to touch.
37
In fact, it feels so nice that my cat ended up wanting to devour this thing.
38
I really ended up loving having this kind of second brain in my pocket.
39
One cool thing is that it also pairs really nicely with this tiny e-reader.
40
I actually stuck a magnetic sticker on one of the sides of this mini journal, which allows me to keep both of these things together in my pocket pretty easily.
41
It also lets me read a book, while always having a piece of paper nearby to capture important ideas or thoughts.
42
The last things I carry with me are my keys and wallets.
43
Normally I prefer to use this leather wallet that my grandfather gave me when I was a kid.
44
I've had it with me for many years.
45
He actually told me that he bought it when he was 30 years old, which means this wallet is now over 40 years.
46
That's insane.
47
The cool thing about this wallet is that it has this hidden compartment where I keep my important cards.
48
I think this feature is really cool, because if I ever end up losing my wallet, I doubt anyone would figure out that this hidden compartment even exists.
49
I really love this wallet, both because of all its history, and because of its unique features that make it different from any other wallet I know.
50
However, whenever I'm wearing something simpler and more minimal, I use this tiny wallet.
51
This thing is tiny and really simple, and despite its size, I can still store money and cards in it.
52
While I tend to use the wallet that my grandfather gave me more often, I really like how both of these wallets are built.
53
They both feel very durable, so I'm really grateful that I get to use both of them.
54
So, starting with the backpacks.
55
I actually own two different ones this $40 random one, and this slightly more expensive TomTalk backpack.
56
They serve two completely different purposes.
57
The smaller budget one is for days when I don't have much to carry, and I know I won't be wearing it all day.
58
The bigger TomTalk backpack though is the one I use whenever I need to carry more things with me.
59
The reason I split it up like this is because the comfort level between the two is night and day.
60
Sure, the budget one works for lighter loads, but once I add some real weight, it gets incredibly uncomfortable.
61
Not to mention, it runs out of space pretty quickly.
62
For comparison, I can't even fit my gaming laptop comfortably in its laptop compartment.
63
However, in this larger backpack, I'm able to fit both of these laptops, my e-reader, and a few books.
64
That's why I usually prefer to carry this one around.
65
It's comfortable regardless of how much I'm carrying.
66
And the extra space means that each item has its own place.
67
I'm especially concerned about how the items fit inside the backpack, because sometimes things can get dangerous,
68
especially with more fragile devices like these e-ink tablets and headphones.
69
Another big difference between these two lies in the build quality.
70
The cheaper backpack isn't bad, I've been using it for two years, and while it has its fair amount of scars, I still think it will last for a long time.
71
However, it doesn't feel nearly as comfortable to use as this one.
72
The biggest difference lies in the compartments.
73
This cheaper backpack just has a thin layer of material separating the outside from the inside, which is completely fine for light use.
74
But this one has much better padding, which makes it much more comfortable.
75
I'm really happy with my current backpack setup, though I might eventually replace this cheaper backpack with a comfortable, tinier one.
76
Talking about what I actually keep inside my backpack,
77
usually the only computer I carry with me is this really cool Japanese laptop that I bought on eBay for around $130.
78
This is the Panasonic Let's Note CF SV7.
79
Basically, it has the same specs as the ThinkPad T480 while being cheaper and having this really cool design.
80
Well, since my last upload about this laptop, I actually switched its operating system from Arch with Hyperland to Debian with GNOME.
81
I only made the switch on this laptop because Arch
82
and Hyperland were causing some weird bugs that I didn't have the patience to fix.
83
I also wanted to try a different Linux distro with a different desktop environment.
84
Even with Debian and GNOME, this thing continues to be really fast for everything I do on it.
85
For comparison, it's actually faster than my Windows gaming laptop when switching between workspaces.
86
Of course, that's mostly an operating system issue, but it's still really impressive to see.
87
While I sometimes use this thing for coding, I actually tend to use it more as a writing tool for taking notes and writing video scripts.
88
Having this laptop dedicated to those kinds of tasks actually helps me stay more focused and productive.
89
Overall, I really love this laptop, not just because of its hardware, but also because of how different it feels to use.
90
Even though I love the touchpad on this laptop because of how unique it feels.
91
I still tend to carry this Bluetooth mouse alongside with it.
92
This thing is super responsive while being very small and minimal.
93
It also pairs perfectly with my Panasonic laptop.
94
Sometimes I also carry my gaming laptop around.
95
Besides my laptop, I also carry this e-ink tablet and notebook inside this compartment.
96
I usually use this e-ink tablet for taking notes in class, studying, or just reading books and manga.
97
Writing on this thing feels really good, especially with this pen that came with it.
98
I bought it secondhand for around 300 bucks, and it has already paid for itself thanks to the number of books I've read on it.
99
It runs Android, which means I can install any app I want on it.
100
The best part about devices like this, though, is the screen.
101
Because it's made up of tiny particles that move across the display, it causes virtually no eye strain, and since the refresh rate is so low, it also prevents you from getting distracted by doomscrolling or social media.
102
Overall, this is a really nice and useful device to carry around.
103
It also helps keep my backpack lighter, since I don't need to bring any school textbooks with me.
104
Besides the e-ink tablet, I also carry this notebook.
105
This one, in particular, cost me just $1.
106
Well, to write on this tablet, I usually use either this Samsung S Pen or this more expensive Books Pen.
107
And to write in my notebooks, I usually just use one of these random pens that I bought at my school for cheap.
108
I usually just store them in this simple and minimal pencil case.
109
So inside this tiny compartment, I usually keep my console.
110
This is the PSP 3000 model, and even though I don't use it every single day, It genuinely improved my relationship with games, simply because this thing doesn't have the latest specs.
111
It actually allows me to enjoy gaming without making it so distracting or addictive.
112
This device actually allowed me to simplify my relationship with technology by giving each device its own purpose, which removed that feeling of uneasiness I used to feel whenever I tried to focus on a device
113
that I also used for gaming.
114
I actually carry this thing around to play a game whenever I don't feel like reading a book, or when I simply want to make time go by in a way that I find meaningful.
115
Well, I really like having this console, and I love how this thing feels to play.
116
I also appreciate the fact that it's an actual portable console that I'm able to carry around.
117
Inside this tiny pocket, I also carry my Apple EarPods.
118
Even though they're cheap, their sound quality is actually pretty good.
119
They stay in my ears in a way that feels comfortable and seamless.
120
I also carry my Sony headphones.
121
They're perfect for cancelling outside noise, especially when I want to focus in a loud place, or simply when I want to drift away from reality and appreciate some nice music.
122
I really love how they sound, however they tend to be uncomfortable to use during the summer because they make my ears sweat.
123
These are just random things that I carry, but I would say that sometimes they really save my day.
124
Inside the main compartment, I also carry this essentials bag where I store things like my deodorant, some cream to keep my skin hydrated, my perfume, and a bunch of other small things.
125
I'd say this is one of those things that everybody should carry.
126
It can really save you when you you truly need it.
127
Other random things that I also like to carry in my backpack are this grip strength trainer.
128
I tend to use it to make boring classes pass a little faster while having some fun.
129
The last things I carry are these random chargers and these calculators.
130
I'd like to end this by saying
131
that the purpose of this video is not to convince you to buy any of the things I own.
132
The reason why this everyday carry works for me is
133
because it makes me more intentional about how I use my time and attention.
134
All the devices I own have a specific purpose.
135
I still have a lot to improve, and that's why I'm constantly trying to find ways to use my technology in a healthier way
136
that helps me accomplish my goals.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
