Feel-Good Productivity

Ali Abdaal

A more human approach to getting things done — making work energising instead of draining.

What I wrote

I liked that this book doesn’t treat productivity as suffering. If the system makes you miserable, it won’t last.

Play, people, and energy feel more realistic than endless discipline for me.

Learnings

  • Energy beats willpower over the long run.
  • Play, power, and people make hard work sustainable.
  • Productivity should help you feel better, not worse.

Quotes

  • “When we feel good, we work better.”
  • “Energy is the fuel of productivity.”
