1. Pause notifications for 1-4 hours while you do deep work. Leave your phone in another room 2. Optimize your schedule. Ask for meeting notes with key information instead of showing up to meetings that don't contribute to your or your team's bottom line 3. Do most impactful and important work first rather than easy tickets.

I live on mute. All notifications are silent except calls from my dad, wife, grandpa or brother lol

Thanks Angel!
Just the combined brain power in that room with Rahul and Steve is mind boggling. One is a staff engineer at Facebook and the other is a Principal engineer at Amazon. Jhees.
Short, precise and unambiguous videos - you guys are doing what you preach, which increases the value of your advice even more! Love these to-the-point interviews and QnA's. Learn a lot from these compared to other content creators. Taro has been helping me learn countless new strategies and concepts of handling general issues that SE's encounter. So yeah, excellent app man. Keep at it. Thanks for your contribution
Steve is the best guest so far
Thanks for inviting super skilled guests which are getting my trust immediately; the value of these advices is so high because of it!
This was such a great video. Especially the point about optimizing one’s schedule. It can be difficult for lower level engineers to know how to handle the barrage of meetings on a weekly basis. Evaluating the necessity of your attendance at meetings is huge.
You two guys are awesome. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to you. Thank you.
Finally. My Dream came true. Glad you both are collaborating.
Steve and Rahul! My favorite SDE productivity youtubers / mentors.
Thanks Rahul! Incredibly valuable content you shared that would take someone years to develop on their own.
fwiw, interpolating a heavy lift with a "dessert" story (the simpler stickies you mentioned) helps some folks I know. Having been on a variety of teams, mileage varies greatly due to team dynamics as well...if you have the kind of control described, AND you also work on a team, you might also be very lucky. ;-) Great discussion, thank you!
Thanks for the collaboration and enlightment.
Super helpful. Couldn't have come across this at a better time,as i'm starting my journey as a swe myself soon
Two of my fav youtubers.
Lots of relatable points. And thanks for the remedies. Great video guys 👏 Looking forward for more such content ✅

More to come! And there's more in the Taro app right now as well :)
I get almost all my productive work done between 8pm and 11pm. I don't know what it is, it might be the lack of notifications during that time or something about the sun being down, but I can just "work" during that time.
This was awesome. Thank you both for sharing!
I love ALifeEngineered!! And looks like he is an audiophile with those Audio Technica headphones.
Thanks for the video, will be taking back with me a lot of great advice from the video
steve is awesome, glad to see this collab
Would love a series or a podcast woth you 2
Not sure if this is a new layout or if Rahul has got a new camera set up. The video quality is nicer and more pleasing to watch.
Tomato Timer! Has been huge for me to be incentivized to focus on blocks of work and most importantly stay off my phone!!
Great discussion
The collab we needed but didn’t know
10:14 - lol, look at that text size.

Lol I can read that even when blurred
These are not well thought out... 6:00 so.. just reschedule the meeting so it fits YOUR schedule what about everyone else? Ignore notifications? Ok, and when you need to get unblocked and message someone? They should ignore you right?

this is not what they meant. 1. Meeting reschedule: Steve or Rahul didn't suggest forcing others while doing so. They will still have option to suggest different time or decline the change. 2. Notifications: Yes, ignore them all. Asynchronous communication is the key to productivity. Nobody should text someone and expect them to reply instantly. If you have something urgent (not only important but also urgent) then directly call that person or reach to their desk (if at office). Maybe I am not great at explaining but they really don't want you to become a rude/selfish teammate.
I feel like the suggestions seems more relevant to experienced folks

Great point.
I hit the thumb up as soon as i saw both of your faces when the video started. I don't even need to reach the end to know if it's going to be good. I know it's going to be good.
I am now putting "behooves" in my professional language back pocket

Thank you so much for this!
you gotta optimize your efficiency. Be a robot beeboop
I use zen mode in my one plus device. Your phone just freezes for 1-2 hours. No mercy. No restart works
Rahul, do you know anyone who started companies while on F1 or H1B ? How did they navigate their Visa journey?

I do know one, but he had a cofounder who was a US citizen. If you're on a visa, I'd recommend partnering with a citizen.
Time management......that old friend the we never call.
Meeting notes for this video?
What is this, a crossover episode?!
me context switching while watching this video at work 😐

🙏👍👍
I can't stand the culture of jumping at notifications. Someone liked my post/I got an email or even a text? cool. I don't need to get a beep about it and I don't need to leave everything and check it.
