Why Ali Abdaal is Preaching 100x Speed Productivity
Channel: Robert's Theory
Date: 06/08/2020

In this video, I discuss the why behind Ali Abdaal's obsession with speed consumption and productivity.

Ali Abdaal is living and breathing productivity. A true inspiration. He is a doctor, a YouTuber, and a podcaster as well. One of his best skills is speed. He incorporates it in his day-to-day activities and uses it to be productive as well. He is using speed in typing, listening to audiobooks, producing content, learning, and much more.

But my general view is that this is not only about being productive. Ali wants to absorb information, concepts, knowledge, and not waste time while doing it.

So if someone is able to recognize that and be true to himself and acknowledge his knowledge of the subject, I think that that particular someone has the right to increase the speed of consumption.

I have a lot of dumb ideas. I tend to write them down and then revisit them from time to time. Sometimes, the world and/or my own understanding of it has moved enough to where it can now be taken to a new place. If you’d like to talk, I’d love to hear from you. 

Enjoy!
