Creating a productivity system will help us in being more productivity in the longer run and also reduce the chances of burnout. 

This is an amazing video by Ali Abdaal where we talks about building a productivity system. 

Notes from the video:

In productivity system we need 4 components

1. Use a calendar. No need to remember life events or meetings to attend. Just schedule it
2. Use an email system (create a filter with has the words unsubscribe then delete it)
3. Use a todo list (put all tasks there so that you dont have to remember)
4. Use a file management - Use google drive

One touch to inbox zero

Every email has an intent and they can be categorized 

1. If its a calendar event then it goes to calendar
2. If it needs some kind of action then it goes into task manager
3. If information used for reference put it in a note taking app
4. If its an article then put it into Pocket to read later
