so rn i’ve got 6 one-hour episodes of a tv series to translate
normally that would take about 9–10 days
but the deadline is 6 days from now 😅

if you’ve got any advice on [legal] long-term productivity boosts
or how to sneak extra hours into a day
it'll be much appreciated 

also accepting: black magic, time loops, or ethically sourced amphetamines

I translate movies, co-own a loss-making fast-food joint, and raise two kids

Have you tried speeding up the video?  Maybe try 1.5x or 2x speed?

it would help if I needed to watch it 😆

I've heard of the "pomodoro technique"  - supposed to be good for focusing and avoiding burnout, but I haven't tried it yet🙃

no, I do have the video of course

but translation takes time and speeding up the video won't help translate faster

so, is it just a text you're working with?
