Create an if then system. Ex: If I want to scroll on tiktok, I need to meditate for 3 minutes before starting.
Create an hourly log of each day, write down, just write down with no judgement and be honest with yourself. Nothing to be guilty about. It's gonna be useful, you can use it to create a structured habits, to check where all the time go, to be more conscious of the habits that you despise as it may not seem obvious until you write it down, and so much more. This is so revolutionary.

There's another part of the marshmallow test that rarely gets mentioned: before that test, the kids were divided into 2 groups and were given the instructions to do an art project and the instructor asked the kids to wait for him/her to come back with the material then in one group the instructor came back with the materials but for the other group the instructor came back with apologies. After this, the marshmallow test happened and the kids who got apologies were not to keen on trusting the instructor who agreed to give them more marshmallows if they waited patiently so most of them(let down by adult group) pretty much immediately ate the marshmallow as soon as the adult left

I have ADHD too and sometimes I forget that I’m not alone and I’m not insane. Thank you

My struggle is ADHD. I have a hard time having a successful day.

The important thing to remember is that your brain builds up a tolerance for anything that’s included in its reward center, so it’s important to utilize this in moderation, otherwise it can lead to depression if the same level of activity isn’t generally maintained.

The timing of this video coming out is a sign! I've recently realized how bad I really was.. Not, brushing my teeth, drinking 3+ sodas a day, not showering often... In this past month I have changed and still working on it! This keeps me wanting to fight for my health!!

I find meditating outdoors like in nature really helps.

Good things are never easy, let's choose the pain of discipline and by making it an habit it will not be a pain anymore.

I Struggle big time with productivity, procrastination, and basically delaying gratification (which I didn't have a way to name and put a finger on before this video). This feels like it gave me a perspective on myself and one more reason to practice doing the harder things first rather than pushing them to later.

I'm loving the new micro skits and personal opinions in between the sections :D keep up the good work ruri! You are my idol

[Blitz_Beast]

Ruri, you've inspired me and I've been working on myself a lot lately, working out, learning a new language, working on a degree, my relationships, etc. I hope others will find your channel and be inspired too. Thank you so much, and God bless <3

[tcabdo]

Here you have Ruri upload a much needed video with stuff I needed to hear 2 days before my midterm exams 😅

[sarahvoh]

I struggle with delayed gratification sometimes. I will think carefully and be more aware of what I'm doing. Your advice is so helpful. Thank you Ruri!😊💕

[shiroimitsune]

I'm seeing these changes in your videos that make it better.
From the little skits, to personal opinions, and those funny little segway one-liners
I like it! Keep it up, Ruri!<3

[WorldRecordRapper]

i like dicipline the trick is trick yourself into loving discipline

[joyousherron]

Change is difficult and painful! Fail and simply observe yourself mindfully. This last point you shared really really hit home with me as I strive to improve myself and accomplish my goals. Thank you so much!!

[Corusame]

Fantastic advice. I can be my own worst enemy when it comes to having self discipline and overcoming distractions. Your advice will help me a lot as I'm sure will help others. Great vid!
