1. Get a handle on your finances: This is the first and most important step to becoming productive. If you don't have a handle on your finances, you will never be able to become productive. There are a lot of different ways to get a handle on your finances, but the best way is to create a budget.
2. Find a system that works for you: There are a lot of different productivity systems out there, and the best way to find one that works for you is to experiment. Try out a few different productivity systems and see which one helps you the most.
3. Set goals: Once you have a handle on your finances and you have found a productivity system that works for you, it's time to set some goals. Without goals, you will never be able to become productive. Figure out what you want to accomplish and then set some goals that will help you get there.
4. Make a plan: Once you have your goals set, it's time to make a plan. Without a plan, it will be very difficult to become productive. Figure out what steps you need to take to reach your goals and then make a plan that will help you get there.
5. Take action: The final step to becoming productive is to take action. You can have all the financial knowledge in the world, but if you don't take action, you will never become productive. Figure out what you need to do to reach your goals and then take action.
6. Be patient: Becoming productive doesn't happen overnight. It takes time and effort to become productive. Be patient and don't get discouraged if you don't see results immediately.
7. Persevere: Finally, don't give up. If you find that becoming productive is difficult, don't give up. Persevere and eventually you will reach your goals.
If you follow these seven steps, you will be well on your way to becoming productive and achieving financial freedom in 2022.

have you ever sat for hours and hours at
your desk or in front of your computer
at your job or whatever you're trying to
do and the end of the day comes before
you know it and you look back and you
realize you haven't got anything done
well guys don't worry you're not alone
there are countless people out there
feeling just the same way in fact i was
one of them in this video i'm gonna go
over seven of my best productivity hacks
and at the end i'm gonna throw in my
eighth one which is a bonus which is
actually my favorite one so make sure
you stay tuned to the end my name is
kyle chasse i've been in crypto for 10
years i run several different companies
in the crypto space my time is very
limited and i value it highly in order
for me to be able to achieve all of this
i needed to be more productive so i'm
going to teach you the things that i've
done the things that you can apply to
your life there's one thing i want to
stress before we dive into this guys
time is without a doubt the most
valuable asset that you have so i
encourage you to treat time like it's
worth you do have a finite supply of it
it will run out one day and the last
thing you want to do is watch your life
pass before you without being able to
fully appreciate it and enjoy it and
some of you may feel like you never have
time to do things that you want to do
maybe you're working around the clock at
work you've just got a million things
that are on your to-do list and it never
seems to be exhausted that's simply a
matter of becoming more productive so
let's get into my hacks on how to do
that alright guys so the first one is
going to be find a time of day where you
have very little distraction so this may
or may not apply to you for myself it
applies dramatically so there's a period
of my day where i am inundated with
requests messages emails telegram
messages tweets videos things to do and
people are always coming and messaging
me knocking on my door and that's fine
right that's the position i'm in that's
my responsibility to do that so for me
what i ended up doing was shifting my
schedule later for me and i'm have a
feeling for a lot of people watching
this especially if you're in crypto or
technology a lot of us just seem to be
nocturnal and me myself i am so for me i
usually work until about
three or four a.m now
that means that i'm waking up between
like 10 and 11 a.m and when i get to my
desk and start to work it's game on and
this is when the inundation happens
everyone knows i'm awake and i'm getting
bombarded but around
8 00 p.m or so 8 9 p.m
miraculous happens it goes totally
silent when that happens i feel like the
dude from limitless movie right like i
could just get massive amounts of things
done and that's why i need to do it so
whatever works for you whether it's
waking up early
going to bed early or waking up late
staying up late it's very important you
find a time of day without distractions
so you will then enter into your flow
state right and a very good book to read
is deep work by cal newport basically
flow state is essentially that it's a
state of mind when things just seem to
flow this is when we become the most
productive right things just seem to
flow we get into state of mind when it
just comes to us right unlike
going through a document getting
distracted what is that and then coming
back did you know that every time that
you get distracted from reading it takes
on average 10 seconds to go back find
where you were and reread the
information that you had before we
didn't like routines and they tend to
make us more productive
so make sure that whatever you choose
early morning or late at night that it
is the same time every single day next
one is time blocking now i'll read a
quote from cal newport again from the
same book i referenced earlier and he
says a 40 hour time blocked work week i
estimate produces the same amount of
output as a 60 hour work week pursued
without structure so essentially what
we're talking about is you know let's
say that you have a bunch of tasks that
you need to do from that your boss gives
you or something one block can be
tackled to-do list right and when that
block hits the time on your calendar
boom you just switch from whatever
you're doing directly into getting those
done and another thing is
we all check our inbound messages or
telegram or email every single day right
but an entire day can go by just getting
lost into multiple conversations on
telegram because i go back and check it
and then they reply and then you they
expect you to reply instantly what i
suggest for emails and telegram if you
can do this is just fine two blocks of
time every day maybe it's 30 minutes as
soon as you get to work and 30 minutes
before you leave to open up the email
box look at your messages reply to
everything nice and thoroughly and just
know that you're not going to look at
those until the end of the day or until
the next morning just look at your day
the things that you do
block them into groups of time and make
sure you follow that every single day
okay so the next hack guys is something
that
when i implemented this in my life it
changed my life forever i
honestly like this is it literally
completely was the best thing that i
ever did for myself from a pure
happiness perspective and productivity
perspective now this is hiring an
assistant now a lot of you watching this
may not be at a place where you can hire
a full-time assistant that's there with
you to do these kind of things but
there's different types of assistance so
for example
if you have things that you need to do
like responding to emails or responding
to inbound inquiries or organizing your
calendar guys there are virtual
assistants right and you can just google
this there's virtual assistants in
places like philippines or india i
recommend philippines because they speak
really really good english and they tend
to have really high uh standards of
quality in the philippines you can get a
virtual assistant for somewhere in like
four or five dollars an hour and
that can relieve a lot of things from
you and you have an assistant and if
you're making a bit more money and you
have some extra money to spend on
yourself on your business uh there's
other types of assistance too like i
just liked having my place clean and i
am not someone who likes to do laundry
or clean the floor or cook the first
assistant that i hired when i was in los
angeles happened to be a gay guy named
steven now one of the biggest needs that
i needed was taking care of my personal
house right i will tell you what my
house had never been so clean my clothes
so organized having healthy food all the
time help and that made me
super happy i can tell you when you do
have an assistant that helps with
whatever it is that you don't like to do
right so for me that was incredibly
valuable because
it bothered me my when my house wasn't
clean and things weren't organized so
for me that distracted me it made me
anxious and i couldn't be as productive
now an executive assistant is as you get
a bit higher up and you need someone
that becomes essentially an extension of
you someone that will
shadow you for a long time learn the way
you think the things that you know how
you like to do things the way you
communicate with your customers and they
will essentially start looking through
your emails your telegram messages uh
you know just just doing all the things
that they are capable of doing because
they've essentially understood how you
would communicate and guys that again
alleviates a lot of your time doing
these little tasks and allows you to
focus more on the big picture of what
your goal is and what you're trying to
achieve the kind of things that only you
can do the way that i think about
assistance overall
is think about
what you value your time at
understanding how much time it would
take you to do the tasks that they will
do and if you believe that your time is
worth more than you're paying them it
makes sense to do that guys the next one
is goal setting so
goal setting we all do that right like
every new year's comes around and we all
make
some goals for the new year's resolution
and
a lot of times we just do not follow
through on them well goals can help you
be the most productive
ever if you make those goals achievable
and you have to believe that you will
achieve these goals it has to be real to
you and in order for you to believe that
you can achieve this goal
you need to do things that imprint it in
your mind as a reality so that means
things like visualization right so
create your goal and then close your
eyes and think about what it feels like
to be in that place maybe now you're 40
pounds lighter or maybe now you have
made 500 000 this year and after taxes
and everything you have an extra 250
grand in your bank account how does that
feel how does it make you feel right now
not only do we need to visualize it
often we can break that down even
further so part of goal setting is
making it so it's realistic
into
little small actionable steps the goal
that we said is a huge ambitious thing
it's a goal for a reason it is hugely
ambitious but how do we get there well
you need to make a plan on how to get
there right so if our goal in one year
is to is to achieve x what do we need to
do on a monthly
weekly and daily basis to make sure that
we achieve that goal so write those down
create a plan and make sure that you
stick to those things every single day
and trust me
you will get there that is how you
become
extremely productive at goal setting and
goal achieving the next one is again it
kind of ties into the last one uh this
is called the two day rule now in order
for us to achieve our goals we must make
things like routines like let's say that
your goal is weight loss right and so
you want to make sure that you're going
to the gym at least five days a week
some days we just get too busy and
things get out of hand and you you skip
the gym right that's okay you skip the
gym shame on you but it's okay the next
day
you need to make sure that you do
whatever you do
you do not miss that second day because
once we have formed a habit which takes
about 21 days so if your goal is to lose
the weight and you start going to the
gym trust me it is going to be a
for the first 21 days once you form the
habit it becomes very easy it becomes
like secondary nature but
it is easy to fall out of habit much
faster than it is to create the habit
this is why the two-day rule is so
important you miss a gym one day that's
okay don't beat yourself up about it but
day two i don't care how busy you are i
don't care i don't care how busy or what
you did i don't care if you get done at
10 p.m at night and you're exhausted
just don't miss a second day because if
you miss the second day you're much more
likely to miss the third day and the
fourth day and before you know it you
haven't gone to the gym a week and you
just write it off this is how we lose
focused productivity and why we fail to
accomplish the goals that we set out for
ourselves alright guys and the next one
is the two minute rule two minute rule
is essentially whenever a task comes at
you that uh will take less than two
minutes to do just do it right so like a
lot of times you might get asked to
forward an email or something right and
you have a choice when you're asked to
forward an email you can either add it
to your to-do list or you can literally
just stop whatever is that you're doing
and go do it right now because it's
gonna take less than two minutes to do
statistics just show that when you can
knock out these little tasks that take a
very short amount of time it's much more
efficient just to get them done this is
why we have those blocks of time before
so we don't get distracted in our day
for people asking so i expect fully that
for me personally from 8 p.m until 4 in
the morning nobody is asking me to do
anything and so i don't mind in the
hours when i expect things to be asked
of me to do these things so i fully
comply with a two-minute rule boom
somebody asked me to do something i do
it right now the next one is extremely
important right you need to make time
for you what does that mean i don't know
it's different different for everybody
if you don't make time for you if you
just work around the clock what will
inevitably happen and trust me it
happens to everybody
even the strongest most driven people
will get burnt out and once you burn out
that production across the board
dramatically decreases
meaning that you could still be sitting
in front of your computer or at your
desk
and if you're burnt out you're just
gonna start moving very slow through
things and you're just gonna
everything's gonna start being like a
pain in the butt to do find time to do
the things that make you happy that can
re-energize yourself so if you have the
freedom
to
take a day or two off maybe that's what
you need to do right maybe maybe you're
the type of person like me for example
who has no problem working really hard
like i can even go i can even go
probably like
14 days straight without taking time off
but eventually
i will need some time off and i
understand people do not bother me i
just need to i need to separate for a
little while and then i'll go do
whatever i want for you it might be not
working so hard through and then taking
whole days off maybe it's just taking 15
minute breaks throughout the day to go
for a quick jog or have a chat with your
friend or you know follow up on on
tinder and talk to whoever you know like
whatever like whatever it is that you
want to do take the time for yourself
it's very important um we can all get
lost in our responsibilities and our
work in the things that we're expected
to do and we will forget to take the
time that we need for ourselves to keep
ourselves sane and happy all right guys
now the bonus i was talking about this
is really great so
consuming content right you should all
be consuming content you should all be
learning learning is incredibly
important whether you want to be an
entrepreneur get better at your job
learn a new hobby
reading and watching content is
incredibly important i do it all the
time if you're watching like youtube for
example or any media player there's a
setting you can go to and you can
actually change the playback speed speed
it up when you can watch quickly and you
can't digest it do it right then it'll
increase the ability if you watch on 2x
that means at any given point in time
you can watch two times more content
meaning that you can learn two times
more information if you can do that some
some some people like mike the producer
here he watches things on 3x speed i i
it's because he's an editor i don't i
can't do that personally right now but i
know a lot of people that can the same
thing goes for reading books now i'm
going to give you another productivity
hack have some earphones in your ear
with white noise now that will drown out
all the distractions so you don't have
that delay or the distraction when
you're reading it can allow you to
remain fully engaged within the content
that you're reading and it will save you
tons of time and allow you to read much
much faster some people choose to do
audio books and some people choose to
read classic books what about doing both
at the same time get the audio book for
the book that you're reading and get the
physical book and put your headphones in
and put the audio book on two or three
times playback speed and follow along
with your eyes as you're doing it this
will not only allow you to read the book
quicker but it also will increase the
ability in which you can read it i love
to read books by successful people right
like jeff bezos or elon musk or whatever
these books are
an aggregate of all the lessons
all the hardships all the problems all
the discoveries all the epiphanies that
these entrepreneurs had
over the course of their entire lifetime
all compiled down to one little book
that's powerful right that's powerful
this is one of the best productivity
hacks you can ever imagine you don't
always have to learn lessons the hard
way by making the mistakes yourself
we have the history of the world given
to us in the form of books that you can
take advantage of
so guys in conclusion we
just uncovered seven or eight
productivity hacks that you can apply to
your life that will make you
exponentially more productive and guys i
know this is not the normal style of my
video but
since it's a bear market and since
things are slow and we all have extra
time i'm thinking about doing more
videos like this and other videos on
finance on how to achieve wealth things
to look out for things to be careful of
uh things like that that i believe are
incredibly important on your path to
financial freedom

kind of videos please do let me know in
