And more people find that increasingly stressful and maybe its time to talk about well time its a funny thing it control all race it can fly it can heal all wounds they say Everyone Wants to use it wisely but what does that even mean my colleague olaf wiig assess the 1st step is simple just change your habits tick tock. And all day. Long. I had an alarm clock that when you. All day running like clockwork the tide time is a stern taskmaster we say for time we killed saudis but these days everything has to be just in time. You can still take its not as you like it ive got all the time in the world. Sight we can also make something out of our time the 1st time its a gift. But none since time is kind to some less so to others i have a great time and build them a city where time has never stood still. Time waits for no man they say. Here i always wanted to come up here used to be behind the berlin wall i was on the other side of the red town hall and its clock the most famous and all them is the way. Everybody should stop the clock once a day its in your hands. What do you do with your time. Good question but these days you can also use technology to manage your time whether its checking off your to do list while the rest of the world sleeps or reading a book in 15 minutes there are lots of absolutes so whole life hacks that promise to make you happier and more productive but do they work we tried out a few. Too much to do too little time thats just everyday life for most of us but apparently it doesnt have to be that way. I got more done i was less stressed to work with less effort and in less time be more productive and happy. Really just a question of using the right apps and life facts to find out my life to the max for one week. Point. Welcome to the 5 am Club Exclusive circle of High Achievers who are up before 6 in the morning. Do this every day see some politicians swear by the power of a morning routine while the rest of the world the still asleep they make time to focus on themselves they may read exercise one. Drink a glass of lemon water and take 20 grateful breaths. But to be very honest at this time of day no matter what i do it just feels wrong. All week. This is nothing that does anything. But there must be something out there that can help me boost my productivity exercise classes audio books and books. Programs the selfimprovement industry keeps coming up with ideas on the best way to optimize. In the u. S. Alone it generates 10000000000. 00 a year and the market is predicted to keep growing the link is to. Discover the key idea from the worlds best nonfiction books no time to read a book with a blink you can supposedly finish one in just 15 minutes well of course not the entire book but at least the condensed version of the most important passages text ordeal. Within a week ive read 6 books all of them selfhelp titles which i probably wouldnt have picked up otherwise. I love books i love reading and i thought this was just another way to destroy that experience and its not Something Different its a quick way to take in information it gives you a chance to get a glimpse of new ideas and if you like them you can still buy the book and. One of the books was about whats called the pommel doro technique its simple if you focus on a specific task for 25 minutes know what sept no emails no social media and then. You get to take a 5 minute break. It works it keeps me focused it kind of puts the i think the most important thing right now focusing on this but what works well in home doesnt necessarily work in the office some distractions you can filter out yourself and others you just have to deal with. So am i on track to reach productivity havent how can i optimize myself even more ive decided to someone who should know based Productivity College on one last. Say we have a car and we want a car can be faster how are we going to do that were going to change the wills probably not because the 1st thing were going to do hes upgrade the engine and its the same with wanting to be more productive its not about using an app or that hack about perhaps doing more sports or sleeping better at the core of it by training the mind to enter deeper states of awareness. Yes theres also an app for that headspace you meditate with thats helping the goal is to be more balanced more focused more productive it already has more than 30000000. 00 uses. I think headspace brings those tools to a wider range of people but i think its only the 1st step. Get distracted well bring it back so was this the most productive week of my life well i got up at 530 every day read 6 books was more focused and meditated in the evenings but tomorrow im definitely going to sleep in. Humans have been measuring the passage of time for thousands of years the mayans greeks and the egyptians used the sun water or candles but the mechanical clock is the invention that really made a difference its been key to progress instrumental to civilization but its also a harsh taskmaster. The cruel rule of the clog. Centuries ago and in some parts of the world to this day farm hands sometimes have extended breaks. Because people followed their natural clock. The working day was configured by the weather the seasons and our body rhythms. Until the advent of the mechanical clock it put paid to not programs replacing them with a single relentless beat. 60 seconds in one minute with a manmade clock now dictating time in Europe Christian monks are credited with inventing the 1st mechanical clock more than 600 years ago so as not to miss pratt times. Before that theyd used candles when the we could burn down a falling metal bar the monks up. But this method of timekeeping sparked many a monastery fire meanwhile merchants in milan florence and venice were quick to spot the benefits of mechanical timekeeping it meant optimize Business Management and higher profits the american inventor and later Founding Fathers Benjamin Franklin coined the term time is money in 748. 00 oclock became the heart rate of the Industrial Revolution but it meant exact working hours and in the banking enabled the concept of futures trading money became a time factor. But initially the time wasnt the same everywhere not even in villages a few kilometers apart train drivers and passengers had to adjust their pocket watches from station to station so functioning timetables were impossible at the same time the pace of life excel aerated as people increasingly face to race against the clock more tasks to do every hour more places to travel to and more to consume every day the internet has made everything available everywhere every 2nd of the day or night. People may appear to have more Time Available today than ever before but many feel more rushed than ever before for one. Thats why more and more people now long to return to nature when it comes to work and my freedoms. And to the gentle beat of their own internal clock. Well some countries are notorious for the emphasis they put on results and success of the pressure starts early south koreas Education System for example is so strict that children there often have precious little time for play hobbies all their friends pressure is intense and unrelenting and failure is not an option. If you underperform in school or show that youre struggling the other kids look at you like youre an insect. Or so i work really hard because id hate people to look down on me as if i were an insect. That drives me to study how. Its late but lots of School Children are still out on the streets of seoul. You know kim is 13 she spent 7 hours at school and then several more at a crammer a private evening school. There are lots of them throughout south korea and they cost hundreds of dollars a month. Many parents go into debt to send their children to these institutions but if they didnt their kids might fall behind. The trial soon moved on to high school and then to university and the amount of study will increase accordingly. Im not so good at english at the moment so i need to put in at least 14 hours a day to have parents. Who are this young and have him go. Down. South korea is famous for its educational system it consistently tops International Rankings but the price kids pay is enormous. The pressure to perform as massive and underline tech hanging out with friends or other leisure pursuits or for the ambitious out of the question. Cereal then once to make school a more gripping and pleasurable experience with the help of virtual reality. Shes developed an app that takes students on a virtual trip abroad and lets them communicate with people all over the world in english to the v r a headset then corrects their use of the language her start up works with 100 schools 7000 children so far have used the app she herself had problems as a School Student thats one reason she wants to improve english language teaching. By corys to decrease their all of the educational gap between the weekend a poor it because i saw if i gave great. Content education the contents have been experienced to the student at low cost even though it is very high tech when. Technology is changing the way students learn around the world its also changing what they learn. Experts estimate that by 2025 more than half of all workplace tasks will be performed by machines. Computers already perform better faster and more reliably than humans in many respects the question is how to prepare the young for the challenges of the future work will probably look very different. You know doesnt know yet what she wants to do in the future but what she does know is what she has to do right now. Regardless of what might happen in the future the only way forward in korea is to study studying opens all the doors thats what my dad always says study. When it comes to logistics just in time production often means that efficiency play 2nd fiddle to punctuality in germany a lot of trucks carry no freight on return trips and thats a waste of time and fuel humbucker startup called cargo next has developed a tool to improve the situation by joining a Virtual World of Artificial Intelligence with a very real world of trucking. It might be hard to believe but one in 3 trucks out on the roads of germany has no freight on board in many cases after dropping off cargo drivers have nothing to pick up for the return journey thats bad for business and the environment. But hope is at hand in the shape of multi dimensional Artificial Neural Network intelligence or money for short money is an algorithm that works autonomously with the help of several 1000000 items of data provided by shipping companies. It learns from experience it learns to predict where the trucks will be headed and how to determine prices in advance it also learns how to combine trips. Because we have the technology on the one hand and real world trucks on the other. So joining the 2 is pretty complicated as. An example a fully laden truck drives from a to b. Normally it would return that money knows that transportation will be needed not far from the end just a couple of hours time that enables the truck to make the return trip with cargo on board. This sector has a very traditional structure. People tend to be wary when we talk about using a i. In what way or the very skeptical about whether it works whether its reliable whether you can trust it. Another potential hurdle to use Money Companies have to access a website operated by carbon x. Customers and to the specifics of a decided transport request online and money determines the most suitable option for a fee the system determines what the Trucking Firm earns based on past rates. So how does this Artificial Intelligence manage in the real world this Trucking Company in hamburg started using money a few months ago it has trucks on the road all over europe. That is car going next thanks to cargo next weve been able to reduce our empty runs to 15 percent. Uncanny live with the prices. Its mind very well its not like were getting overpaid thats for sure. Take up the price is pretty close some firms will benefit others not so much. But its worth it for us. 6000. 00 Freight Companies have already signed up with the system finding it to be effective however could make them dependent on money given carbon next free rein to become the uber of the logistics sector. Kind of the rules and of the horse we dont want to see a monopoly but demand is so high that everyone can work it out for themselves machine or you know speed and straight forward is can decide for themselves how much business they do with us there are no contractual obligations if each trip is negotiated from scratch. So its up to each company how they use it and more uses the money means fewer empty trips and hopefully less traffic a system with the potential to revolutionize the freight hauling sector. In the small town where i grew up a bell in the tower hall rang every half an hour tradition alive. Its a centuries old tradition that has stood the test of time. But how long does it actually take to make a bell. There are only a few bell makers left in germany. One of them is the back of the bell foundry in the southwest of the country. A coup of bricks covered in clay creates the shape of the inside of the bell the size and shape determine its pitch and sound quality. Then the form of the bell is modeled in clay around that call but separate from it. Then embellishments or inscriptions are added. The clay model of the bell is lifted off the brick or and a mold is made of the models in a side. Than another one is made of its outside the original model is no longer needed the gap between the larger and the smaller molds is the space into which the molten bronze is poured to create the actual bell. That makes between 40. 60 bells a year. And is the son of the owner that is going on from and that its an ellipse and the entire process is based on tradition written from a design in the cord to the molding and casting. However long the staff have been with us the level of tension and excitement remains the same with each bells. The preparations take almost 3 months now its time. Time for the casting. They turn the oven on the evening before. 7 bells are being cast the modes are down in the pit covered with earth. Representatives of the 7 churches that have commissioned new bells are waiting with bated breath. But says churches are his most important customers a bell can cost anything between 2100000 euros. Course giving in may the casting be successful and may their congregations receive wonderful bells that will ring out your praise. Are you sure youll get a bell yes quite sure. So weve certainly already paid quite a bit for it. The bell metal is about ready for pouring. Its a special kind of bronze made up of 78 percent copper and 22 percent in. The metals are stirred with a long wooden pole at a temperature of a 1000 degrees celcius. For this casting 6000 kilograms of bronze will be used the metal alone costs about 60000 euros. A final check before the casting begins. And for the casting they have to don protective clothing. For mikel i ve learned that its a special moment. The priests and pastors of the 7 communities give their blessings. I dont know why my thoughts may have been called once again id like to welcome all of you to todays casting. But hurt is in charge of the process and calls out instructions theres only a half hour. And oh for the cost thing. The channel is open for the bronze to flow. And that flow mustnt be interrupted otherwise the bells will be floored. That. The. Chief of. The brands now fills the molds buried in the pit. So poison is different. If you had wished to do 37 the half hour window is very important and any mistake in the casting would come back to haunt us so everything has to be just right but as you can see we have a great team and its all going perfectly with when the ball. 2 weeks later the bells have cooled and its time to clean and polish them. This one weighs 580 kilograms it cost 10000 euros and its for a church in eastern germany. Any irregularities are removed finally after 3 months the bell will look and sound the glorious. Organ sort of an obvious thing and i have the nicest job because im the last person in the jane and its. Good to go and when i say its done on the outside everyones happy because it looks so nice. Thanks for spending time with us today i hope you feel it was time well spent said from him that same time should go. In crisis.
