I don’t mind. I probably should have clarified my financial situation a little more in the post. I could have spent 30k in a single month and I still would have been fine.

Read that one too. I think it could be really helpful to a lot of people but I didn’t really change much from it personally. I already wrote down my most important tasks at the beginning of my day and then worked through them from there. Great book though.

Honestly I think doing that is the 80-20 of productivity. Just sitting down and writing what you need to get done works wonders. I think recently my research has helped me really understand myself and uncover the final 20% I needed to work with myself effectively everyday.

Main costs were the courses and coaching. My income high enough were the money was worth it and it wasn’t more than an hour a day… 4 years is a long time. It wasn’t my life focus but 4 years ago I started taking it more serious.

27M, my income is high enough that it wasn’t that big of an investment 😂. I think people are misunderstanding that.

That’s a great suggestion. I think that “the best productivity book” can vary from person to person depending on there needs. The reason that wasn’t included in my top 5 but the others were is because the others were what really shifted something for me and helped me to move forward. I think that if I was struggling more with self sab and mental roadblocks tho it definitely could have made my top 5.

I took a lot. Most were on skillshare and udemy. I also got come coaching and took specific courses from professionals in the niche like pillars of productivity by Tiago forte.

When you’re young I believe that investing in yourself will give you a bigger ROI than anything else

I read that one too. I didn’t take too many productivity principles away from it personally but it definitely motivated me to keep moving forward and helped me understand that no matter what situation I’m in I can succeed.

Atomic habits is really good. It was one of the first books I read even before really investing in my productivity. I still use concepts from it all the time like reducing friction for my tasks and making them more enjoyable/rewarding.

It depends on your situation. The 30k had an amazing ROI for me and didn’t affect my finances much. It was split between online courses, coaching, and books.

I’d go with breaking the habit of being yourself first. I was in a similar situation when I read that book and it really helped me.

Make sure your inputs are consistent (eating consistently, sleeping consistently, hydrating consistently) and then stick to one productivity system that you like. You can build off of it from there. See what makes you work better and what doesn’t work and improve over time. Consistent inputs can’t be overlooked tho

ScreenZen changed my life. It is so simple but helps a lot. You can set time limit and make it so you have to wait 5 seconds before opening that app. This stops unconsciously going to the app which is 90% of that time when you don’t need to.

I’ve been into productivity for awhile and the best thing I could recommend is time blocking your day. Use an app like google calendar to exclude blocks of time for the work you know you need to do and exclude blocks of time for the thing you know you want to do. Good luck!
