Friendly reminder: Buying an ipad pro isnt going to stop you from procrastinating.

As someone who doesn’t do anything fancy on computers, I can attest that my iPad completely replaced my laptop. It also replaced my notebooks and textbooks. I absolutely love it.

I use my iPad as a single context device too!! I only use it to stream movies and shows :D

The most procrastination thing is watching the videos of how to become more productive and what's on my phone/iPad to become more productive 😂

I really like to work on my ipad as well. It's easy to take it to a park, sit down, spend time in nature while being creative. I really like your videos and always feel inspired. I wish my channel can also inspire other people to feel more creative and to see beauty all around them. Keep up with the good work. 🙏

I'm very much a Windows user, but lately I've been considering getting an iPad of some sort, because so many productivity apps and tools only exist in the Apple ecosystem. I can't yet justify the cost to myself, but it's interesting to see how someone uses their iPad with a full process :)

Funny you should mention using the iPad as a productivity only device. One of these day i was working on my pc and had to idea to create other "users" inside my own computer for different tasks. So i have my gaming user, where everything game is installed and on display, i have my university user with my university email and all my books and classes and nothing else, and last i have a user for my own company, where all my company data is mirrowed and if i need to i can work from home. And its funny to observe how your mind just clicks into the task at hand by just login into the correct user. Massive help....hope it helps some of you as well. Cheers!

I just recently did the same thing, got the 12.9” iPad Pro myself, love the magic keyboard and pencil, and it really is awesome for moving around to get ideas and research. It’s great! Something different from sitting at the computer all day too which is nice.

My takeaway here is to uninstall those distracting apps from my iPad and keep them all on my phone rather

Perfect timing on this video! I just got an iPad Air to be kind of a hub for my life and I'm working on setting it up. I don't necessarily have the same needs as you, but I did get some helpful info in regards to the pencil (which I've been trying to decide on) and keyboard case, but mostly the best bit of info is the reminder to leave the social media and email off for deep work and focus. The fact that my email and social media is always so accessible makes getting and staying focused so difficult and one of the reasons I got the tablet was to increase my productivity and create systems for my life, so leaving them off is the best option for me I think. Thanks for this video.

I had to remove social media apps from my ipad when i got a 64gb iPad Air to make some room. It was a day and night difference in my work attitude. I eventually upgraded to 256gb iPad Air for future proofed storage, I’m keeping the same work/school focused environment for my ipad. It’s just that much better when it comes to productivity.

Secondly, iPad has became such a huge part of my academia/work workflow. I write a ton of equations for zoom presentations and academic research paper annotations. This was near impossible on my computer, but it’s such a breeze on my iPad. It works perfectly with my laptop. I really love what they did with ipad.

Oftentimes it is the surroundings of the iPad/PC that contain the most distractions!

You can save the articles in Pocket and highlight what you read there. Pocket also has an integration with Readwise, so Pocket highlights are visible in
Readwise as well.

There Is some video in this productivity

[vjrfzrr]

Just quick tip about distractions and how to stay focused especially in smart devices sometimes if you get distracted with some apps delete them it's not so hard to download them again when you finish your work (other then the fact most of us have a high-speed Internet connection) I use this tactic in long periods and short term whenever I have finals exams or need to focus on some projects

Wine at 7am is a productivity game changer for me too

Good video, but just funny sometimes to see channels like this put out a video some months ago acting like they have found the definitive way to read and take notes for themselves and hence strongly suggesting it to the viewers, for their whole system to be altered later on. Nice overview of setup in this video, but think it’s just a reminder for everyone not to get too hung up on ways of doing things. Don’t think ‘Thomas Frank reads like this so I should try that’. Instead realise that these ‘productivity’ channel producers are learning all the time too, the same as everyone else.
