b'When we think about getting more done, we tend to think about working harder, exerting more willpower, and buckling down; we tend to think of doing things that are unpleasant, but that we deem worth it, for the productivity boost they offer.\\n\\nBut what if the key to greater productivity ran the other way round, and the easier and more enjoyable you made your work, the more of it you\\u2019d get done?\\n\\nThat\\u2019s the premise of Ali Abdaal\\u2019s new book Feel-Good Productivity. In addition to being a new author, Ali is a doctor, a YouTuber, and the world\\u2019s most followed productivity expert. Today on the show, Ali unpacks the three prongs of his feel-good approach to productivity: energerize, unblock, and sustain. We talk about how to inject your work with more play, flip the confidence switch, find joy in increasing your power, harness relational energy, and use the 10-10-10 rule for overcoming hesitation in taking action. We also discuss why smart goals aren\\u2019t always effective and what\\u2019s a better alternative, why you might want to put a five-minute hourglass on your desk, the three types of burnout and how to overcome each, and much more.'
