Topic: Becoming productive without spending too much money. (Read 270 times)

Op this I totally agree with you mostly in the area if the phrase of YouTube, for I realized has this YouTube help me to pass a course I was studying after reading without practical it was through YouTube I know the practical way if the thing.

Many felt that all thing is money but little money can make you achieve what might have cost you millions because of the use of internet, my brother use YouTube to learn forklift operator and when through interview and past without deriving the first time despite being a practical something.

What killed many today believing that every thing is tide down to too much money is ignorance, the level of knowledge and exposure you gather can facilitate shifting you to another level of life .

The believe that the internet is currupted and failed to utilize it good nature due to ignorance, why some is course by misplaced priority such as only social media chart and watch of nude or pornography.

Productive means cheaper way of doing such thing and yeah I have applied this for many times now , it may not in technological but in real life physically .
like when I am doing house works that i need not to pay laborer because I use google and youtube to learn what to do and to not spend more .
actually this is what i called Practicality mate.

After all it's all a matter of how you truly want it. You can buy $1000 course and slack off. Well yes being in a paid subscription is an advantage because most of the time it comes with a community and mentorship along the way and that will speed up your learning or profit curve. I would say, Youtube have a great benefit of supplementing knowledge of thing you already know or those within reach of your curiosity. But if the network that is you are looking for or  guidance, then find a person that are already successful on the field that you want to pursue and learn from them. Interact with them. Because it's not about the knowledge that you are paying, it should be the experience, network, the mindset, and behavior that you want to get.

That's right, it is a very precious resource that everyone has. Rich and poor have the same 24 hours and there is the difference on how we're spending it.

The rich people are leveraging their money so that they use other people's time. While us, employees, we sell our time for service and they pay us with money.

Them, they pay money so they can buy our time. Being productive depends on what kind of person you are but we all want to make use of our time worthwhile.

The modernization enabled everyone to learn bit just one who can afford the college that is what makes the big difference, now degree worth nothing and only the skill is given the priority on job requirement and everywhere else so one who have the right knowledge can get the job that is big difference compared to the old days.

Well, we are in AI era and we don't know how long it will take to complete the AGI which eliminate the need of human involvement and start solving problem on its own.

Productivity is very important in any business. Many fail to perform as planned at work or cannot demonstrate the required productivity. When you have too many important tasks at hand the pace of work can be disrupted. Because you may be confused about which task to do first. It takes a lot of time to make decisions before starting work the solution in this case may be to prioritize work.

I'm pretty productive at work, and it doesn't cost me anything. Rather, the boss pays me.

AI is one of the most popular tools nowadays that helps us easier things that in the past is almost impossible but with the help of artificial intelligence ? we are now facing easier life and shorter in time consumption .


actually it is moving now there are many company nowadays that lessen their human employee because of the help from computer that brings also negative effect.

Yes If we want to be more productive we have to give time to ourselves while learning Multi-Skills and this thing will make our worth, make poolish and groom us all we need is just focus on the self abilities i mean if we feel we can have to ability to learn multi skills we should start to learn it rather than wasting time on useless thing we should focus on learning skills and in the later time it will really worth us. Multi-skills will help us to survive easily in the race of life as we have multiple talents to fight against situations.

Well in my opinion, we need not invest much money in learning so many things as these days we can find easily so much desired and helpful material on social media like YouTube there we can find the Playlist of courses we want to learn we should make it cost-effective I mean if our problem can be solved throughout YouTube why should we give money to any institution to teach us? These days really want to focus not much money on learning skills, So dedicate your time to learning multiple things rather than wasting time on useless things what do you say about it?

That is why we need to utilize and use or grab these opportunities especially what has been offered from the technological advancements because if we just ignore it and do not explore it's usefulness and benefits to our lives then we won't become productive instead we may become stuck.

First, the founders of ChatGPT called their creation a preprogrammed software.
2nd, it is full of fantasy, as the data the software learns from is full with fantasy (at best) so is the learned software.
3rd, you need a heck of time to check the output and you need to know what you are checking. 
4rth, the "AI" could certainly enhance your spelling.

Obviously people can pick up skills that will make them richer in the future if they can spend a lot of time on it. Like for example AI is such a big deal right now and there is a new job called "AI prompt engineer", and if you learn that and be great at it, then you are going to be able to actually make some money from it, not going to be all that easy but can happen.

This is why I believe that the best thing we can do right now would be just making sure that we are not involved with something useless and just spending every ounce of time we have efficiently. If you learn something that can make some money then you are going to be fine and the results you are going to have will be fine as well. That's what you should consider.

Education is clearly very important in life and perhaps everyone in some countries also requires their citizens to go to school. So it cannot be denied that if someone has undergone a level of education, he will be formed into a human being who has a broad mindset to create great work. I think a person's creativity will also be formed due to the right mindset, so that it will make it easier for them to carry out activities. So I agree that education should not be abandoned.

You sure did set the tone straight with this post and for those of us who feel discouraged sometimes because we feel our effort in learning something new or upgrading on the knowledge we already have is too much work and commitment.
The worst is having close people and family call out one for learning something online because they feel it's a waste of time and then criticize until one abandons the effort to improve.

I think being productive will require one to be selfish with their time, attention, money and become more secretive so that others don't spoil the good thing going on until it is time to reveal the knowledge.

YouTube has helped a lot of us including me get hold of information that may require a professional opinion and I also like the fact that  our network providers sometimes will give out free bonuses of YouTube subscriptions just so the customer can have an advantage of learning anything on YouTube for cheaper data rates than before. Am speaking from what's happening in my country, I don't know about yours and their tolerance for YouTube videos.

Are we underestimating the traditional education or the ones learnt while doing it practically? No doubt YouTube has emerged as a very good platform for us where we can learn new skills and the existing skills as well but there are other platforms as well and guess who are these YouTubers teaching you skills? They are the ones who learn from practical and from institutes so let's not miss out on the importance of traditional education.

Nothing is actually easy and simple at seems and no matter how we try to make it look cheap to acquire, money must be involved. Aside time is the most valuable thing and you'll need to dedicate it, you need to equipped yourself with good tools in order to succeed. Moreover, we should not neglect the fact that not everyone can be creator. The industry will become non profitable if everyone is creator and there is no ordinary users. Some make it online while others make it offline, it just depends on which you focus on. What's more important is in your last paragraph, making good use of your time is very vital.


That token is very necessary because anything gotten absolutely free is undervalue. The creator are pursuing ends meet too and without that there is no point of creating them if they teach it for free. No knowledge is free. The basics are for you to have insight of what you are about to get into. The premium is the main thing that gives you the absolute knowledge.

You're right wtvall being said but that doesn't mean persons who embraces the fun side of it that doesn't yield them incomes are wasting their times for all I know is that there are times for everything, time to dedicated and get focused to execute your goals and a time of leisure to fell among and have some funs.
Just as mentioned content creators and all that, if everyone using the internet would have to rely on the potential income of it, then there's no just audience to patronize those who Invests on making money out of it.
This is so we don't find those who're just having funs in the internet wasting their times but what matters is if are those having their times spent in the internet do have something worth doing for source of income other than just comfortable being there in the internet just for funs.
You can also ask yourself that how would the world be if everyone becomes equally rich, who'll do tje agriculture produces and how do we rich out to things we can't do by ourselves?

That's just between internet viewers and those who Invests to make money out of it while those making incomes out of the internets also do have other ways they could spend their leisure time for funs and other reasons that basically doesn't bring them incomes.

Life's just a trade by barter

Agreed mate. I Once knew a mother who had put off her education
to work abroad for her family. Because of online classes, she was able
to go back and finish high school. I would forever remember her
for the inspiration she has given me but also I think that would have been
way harder if not for the internet.

She was still able to take care of her children while she studied and she has now
graduated. Internet is often painted as dangerous and a force not to be reckoned with
but honestly it has also helped humanity develop for the better

The internet is a blessing to this generation because through it people can perform tasks more effectively and also have jobs that'll earn them incomes, there are many skills to learn on the internet, some for a small amounts while others are for free. The internet is creating uncountable jobs and information for people everyday, people can enroll in online courses and learn skills that they can make money with, without even attending university. YouTube is a big blessing of the internet, a lady friend in my neighborhood started making different types of snacks for sale, and I asked her when she attended a catering school, and she told me that she learnt it for free on the internet. Despite the fact that scammers are many on the internet to scam people, the internet still remains the best thing that happened to this generation.

In a world that social media is now the money generator due to the advertisement that was supposed to be on television but now redirected to social media many people change their life by just creating a content people really like even the content is no effort for them because they are just showing their usual lifestyle.

There’s a lot of rich people in my country that is just an influencer and even just a kid is possible now to become a young millionaire by just creating a unique content that people like. I like your closing remark that people should invest on time wisely since there’s a lot of people that keep working on job that has very low pay grade while they are working hard. The end result is that many business owners just lower the pay grade in general since many people keeps accepting a job even on low salary.

That’s why an influencer, content creator and streamers is now the most highest paid job now even though they have less time on work due to the salary grade value which the social media platform value them.
