I’m so glad this showed his schedule as aspirational and not something he achieved perfectly every day. So many of these productivity posts (especially of historical figures) fail to acknowledge one of the most important factors for “success” - the fact that they often have other people taking care of the domestic chores for them. That definitely affects what they were allowed to focus on.

What matters the most isn’t the content of the plan but to make a decision in the first place 10:18 don’t miss the last line

When you have all the time in the world at your fingertip, why not? even for modern common folk, this would be tediously difficult and somewhat impossible to commit to, but with every bit of knowledge learnt I'll take away from this and use a few of these virtues. thanks for the upload.

The caricature in this video looks quite unlike the Benjamin most of us 'Mericans are used to seeing. He should at least have on spectacles.

Far better than other videos that have many more views.
