Let's talk about how I manage my time and how you can too.

And if you want to talk credentials, I've been working since I was like 12.

So between that, school, social life, and also having time for myself, I think I know a thing or two about managing my time.

I've been busy.

But among all this, I would say that how you manage your time is deeply personal.

There are a lot of factors into how someone might manage their time.

And it's definitely not a one size fits all.

So take what applies and leave what doesn't.

Okay, let's get into it.

The first thing you need to know is understand how long it actually takes to do something.

So for example, working might provide you with clear -cut hours like a 9 to 5, but you also have to factor in the commute,

how long it takes for you to get ready, or the amount of rest that you might need after work.

In this case, a 9 to 5 is more like an 8 to 6, which is horrendous by the way.

So I used to work 8 .30 to 5 and since I valued my morning so much,

I would wake up early at like 6 just to make sure that I could fit in a walk,

my coffee, some creative work before I started work.

When I worked at a cafe and I was shifted the opening hours, I would actually go in early,

set up shop, do a little bit of journaling, and then get started at work.

And this worked out for me because I liked to wake up early anyway.

I'm a bit of a morning bird, an early bird.

And so once you understand how much time something actually takes,

then you can start to work around it and find solutions to start reclaiming your time back.

So if you wanted more time in the morning like me, shorten the amount of time it gets ready, wake up earlier, start your day earlier,

get to work earlier, just be earlier, prep things, pack your bag the night before, plan your outfit the night before,

take advantage of the free time that you do have to get ahead

and speed up processes that you don't really care about

so you can spend more time on the things that you do care about.

Right, so once you start to understand how things start to fit in your day and the time that they take up,

then you can start to like hack the system a little bit.

Okay, cool.

So now we understand how much time things actually take in our day.

Now we need to prioritize.

If you have many goals to meet and you are ambitious, but you don't want to burn out, then you have to prioritize your goals.

You need to ask yourself, what do you actually want to achieve the most?

Like the number one thing, okay?

It can't be like three different things at once.

Otherwise, you're gonna burn out, girl.

For example, currently, my priorities include growing my creative career, which includes YouTube, Instagram, and Substack.

So if you'd like to support my work and see a girl get the bag,

please consider subscribing, liking, and commenting and following me on my platforms

so that I can make more content and videos that motivate you.

But anyway, another goal I have is to become more fit and athletic.

Between my creative career and my athletic journey, I am prioritizing 80 % of my brain to go towards

those goals everything else gets 20 % for the everything else

that gets 20 % I will slot in my goals here

and there and everywhere I find an in -between so

that could be on the train waiting for friends to arrive

if I'm going to meet them for dinner most of the time I'm the friend

that gets there early so I'm usually waiting on other people

so this is like literally the perfect time for me to whip out my book

and look performative except in this case I'm actually reading most of the time most of the time.

Sometimes I just want my friend to arrive

and take a candid pic of me because I look so good in that moment.

But yeah, literally there's so many in -between moments

that you could slot in a goal or slot in a task that you wanted to do.

So think about all the times that you're just kind of like standing there waiting around.

Try and see if you can slot in some of your goals in those in -betweens.

Okay, so this next tip will honestly save you so much time and that's to make decisions and stick to them.

Don't let other people sway your decisions.

Say no if you have to.

Sometimes you will be persuaded to relax on your schedule and to compromise your time.

Honestly, it's up to you to decide whether it's worth it or not.

But if you need to say no, don't feel guilty, girl.

You made a decision in the best interest of yourself.

So if you're going to compromise on it, it's going to affect your decisions later on in the road.

Another thing about decisions is

that you want to get into the habit of doing things immediately

and to cut down on as much decision making as you can.

There's a lot of times where we stand there thinking about what our next move is going to be

and that honestly can waste a lot of time.

So try to do a lot of your decision making beforehand

when you have free time and that will save you a lot of time down the road.

Getting into the habit of doing things immediately will also save you a lot of time

because if you're thinking about doing something, you might as well just do it right away.

All this thinking is taking so much of your time so just get rid of the thinking and do it girl.

This next tip is something

that I've had to learn a lot over the course of my life

and that's knowing what is worth my time and energy.

As I get older, I am getting really discerning about what is worth my time and energy.

When I was younger, I mean I'm still young, but like when I was younger,

I was really open and down for anything and I would have the energy to bounce back.

But now that I'm older, I'm like, ooh, some things I just cannot do without it sacrificing my next day.

So for example, going out late at night, drinking, partying.

Although I do love to have fun, guys.

Don't get me wrong.

I love to have fun.

I love to laugh.

I love to have fun.

But sometimes laughing too much and having too much fun will cost me my tomorrow.

So I have to be really discerning about what is worth it for me and what will not derail my routine.

So yeah, not everything is worth your time and energy and that can mean people, activities.

And so 80 % of the time, if I have commitments to myself,

I will usually say no to plans or things that will compromise my commitments.

But I do love a 20 % buffer that allows me to be spontaneous and have fun.

I'm high key, a type B person forced to be type A.

And so low key, this is how I balance the books.

Otherwise, I might crash out.

That's just me though, that's just me.

I love a good 80 -20.

100

But for you, maybe that's 50 -50, maybe that's 60 -40.

101

I don't know.

102

It's really all up to you.

103

You need to know how you value your energy and your time.

104

So yeah, not everything is worth your time and energy.

105

So you got to figure out what you value and see how this fits into your life and your commitments.

106

So just for fun, let's do like a quick segment of deal

107

or no deal where I give you a situation and you decide whether it's worth it for you or not.

108

There is no right or wrong answer to this it's just really up to you and for you to get thinking about,

109

you know, how to manage your time.

110

So your friends are inviting you out on a Thursday night and it's 8 30 p .m.

111

You've set a strict schedule of a 10 p .m bedtime and you have planned to do some work in the morning.

112

Deal or no deal?

113

And that's for you to figure out.

114

For me personally, it kind of depends on who is inviting me out

115

if I've seen them in a while or if I've seen them recently.

116

But usually it would be a no deal for me because I really value my sleep.

117

And these days my sleep is very sensitive.

118

I know, so sad.

119

The way that I've been navigating that is by having a very, very strict schedule.

120

Like I am in bed by 8 .30 and I am falling asleep by 9 .30, 10.

121

Yeah, my sleep hygiene is super important to me.

122

And if there is something spontaneous that is going to compromise that and it's not a Friday night, sorry girl, it's no deal.

123

I'll see you another time.

124

But that doesn't mean that I won't see my friend.

125

I'll just reschedule or find another way to slot them in.

126

The next thing I want to talk about is being efficient.

127

To have more time, you need to make more time.

128

And that means you have to be efficient, which means using the least amount of time to do something.

129

I'm sure you guys have already heard of these things, but actions that support being efficient include habit stacking, having routines, being good at something,

130

automating it, and then setting it so that you forget about it, paying attention, getting rid of distractions,

131

you know, your phone being next to you put in the other room, being in a quiet room so that you're not being distracted by noise.

132

A two -hour work session might be a one -hour work session if you're spending the other hour scrolling reels.

133

So get rid of the distractions or experiment with your working blocks.

134

See what kind of working style is the most productive for you.

135

Resting is also really efficient because you can't work an overworked brain and have backups.

136

If you really can't get yourself to be productive on the thing that you're focusing on at the moment,

137

what else is on your to -do list?

138

Swap it out.

139

If you can't do any work in the moment, go wash the dishes.

140

Do you know what I mean?

141

I'm sure if you have a million things on your to -do list, you can find backups for each one if you find

142

that you can't really do the one that you're working on at the moment.

143

One other tip that I have for being efficient with your time is setting a minimum

144

and a maximum amount of time that you want to work on something.

145

The minimum will help you work for an acceptable amount of time that you need to get started.

146

It really helps if you've been avoiding the work or really don't want to do something.

147

And this should be an amount of time that is palatable for you.

148

Like 15 minutes, 10 minutes, even 5 minutes.

149

And the maximum will make sure that you don't overdo it and let it bleed into the rest of your day.

150

In case you have other things that you need to work on.

151

I really like this method and I've relied on it a lot.

152

The next tip I have is to plan ahead.

153

Yeah, know what you need to do and map it out.

154

This is the important part you need to map it out.

155

It can't just stay in your bread, honey.

156

Bread, honey.

157

It just, it can't just stay in your brain, honey.

158

You need to like take it out of your brain and put it onto paper or something that you can see tangibly.

159

Every Sunday, I'll map out what I need to do for the week and the tasks that I need to do daily.

160

So this way, I don't spend time thinking about what I want to do for the day.

161

I just have to do what I wrote down already on my to -do list.

162

Every end of the month, I'll jot down what I want to achieve for the month and any major events that are going on.

163

I won't bore you guys with the details, but my system is essentially Google Calendar for events, appointments, and my monthly outlook.

164

Notion for my detailed day -to -day and my weekly tasks.

165

And that's pretty much it.

166

My system is very simple and

167

that brings me to my next tip is to spend less time maintaining the system and just get the system going.

168

If you have trouble managing your time but you are an aspirational to -doer, you need to have a basic ass system.

169

And so the reason why I have such a basic ass system is

170

because I need to spend more time doing and less time maintaining.

171

Right now, I'm in a season of my life where I need to create

172

and produce a lot and that means I have to execute.

173

But I can't do that if I'm changing the layout of my notion every single week.

174

And so the simplest systems are the ones that work for me.

175

My meals are super simple.

176

My organization setup is simple.

177

My routines are simple.

178

And this is how I'm able to stack so much on top of each other.

179

My systems are simple, but my capacity is large.

180

And so simple looks different for everybody.

181

But my version of simple is just minimalist, I guess.

182

And so my last question for you guys is,

183

is it time that you don't have or is it that you don't want to figure it out?

184

And that's tea.

185

That's T, clock tube.

186

Okay guys, thanks for watching so much and I'll see you in the next video.

187

Bye!

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
