The phrase: “I feel I’m not getting something from this, how do I get something?” really hit me in the way that I also haven’t been leaning into school much because I consider it useless at times and I plan on changing that this year. Thanks for the video.

I remember watching you back in 2018 as a junior in high school as one of my motivations to do well in many aspects of my life that mainly included school. The skills and habits I learned from you helped me so much. Now visiting your youtube after so many years as a college student soon finishing my sophomore year, brought me so many memories and reminded me of the good skills and habits I know were from you. Thank you for everything and Love the videos.

You know, every time I listen to you I feel like I’m reading an essay or a book hahaha is just so well thought and explained, you got great communication skills John!

[DemetriPanici]

You're so close to 1 million subs John! We're all proud of you

[mrplatink]

You are so BRILLIANT in your reflections. I hope you write a book someday, because your unique worldview, your drive to consume books, and your honesty...it's all so inviting. Thank you for sharing.

[HeyImRod]

Congrats on your upcoming graduation! It's crazy to think that you are almost done.

2022 is a year where I am planning to get my life back under control and to not let external circumstances (i.e. the pandemic) get in the way of my happiness. Cheers!

Can you do another day in your life?
Also your sponsorship acting is hilarious 😂

These videos are the complete illustrations of someones life, watching an older video from John Fish when he was a freshman at Harvard, now on his final semester. Provides a fully rounded perspective about someones development, I'm curious to watch where his progress will be located within the next years, moving into a serious occupation. Please continue to post, and keep up the great work!

Thank you for letting me notice that spend less time on social media but more with my hobbies and friends is really what I need to do.

[susanfish]

Super proud of your ability to reflect on yourself and to be both self-compassionate and always growing.

[chelseablackburn]

I appreciate the authenticity of this reflection. It won't always be good but there is good to be found despite the bad. Well wishes to anyone who is struggling right now ♡

I think the standard response is to make this year a better one, a better outlook might be to strive to achieve something. Maybe not as much as as the previous year and maybe more, but at least one thing will be accomplished!

as a senior in high school, I relate to a lot of these things. last year I would sleep in through lectures and watch them at 2x speed. I would find other things to occupy myself with other than school. I stopped studying and got lax on doing homework and then trying to bounce back and cram for the ACT and try to do well in my dual enrollment courses hit me like a brick. I think it will be best to take a step back this summer and separate high school from my future and start developing healthy habits again. It’s so easy to start doing the bare minimum but I think it’s always humbling to read and hear stories about other people and stay engaged in life by reading books and watching movies that inspire me. I’ve learned that I don’t need to be productive all the time but much like intervals vs easy runs, when you’re going hard, go hard and when your resting, fully give your brain a break.

John it’s been years since I last watched one of your videos. I’m happy to see you doing well.

Legit going through all the bad habits that you are as well. I would guess that senioritis is a part of it, as it is with me (high school senior). Just haven’t been into much of anything school related, and I find myself saying “this isn’t worth my time” quite often. Which isn’t always a bad thing, with all of the mental health issues i went through in 2020-2021, it’s better that i focus on things that’ll bring my mental back up (more social things). i’m hoping though that going into college next year i’ll be able to escape this lack of motivation with all the new experiences i’ll come across. Thanks a lot for this video man, it was really relatable and it’s nice to see that others are on the same boat as me :)

I completely understand how you feel. I definitely felt great highs from that year, but also some of my lowest lows. But you deal with BS and figure out how to move on.

[sebtong]

Thank you John! Really glad you were so open with your hardships in the past years

[nochannel]

Thanks for the video, I really felt as if listening to a friend tell me about their year, that was lovely ☺️

[abelgarcia]

Hola John, soy seguidor de tu contenido y me parece genial lo que haces!!! Si pudieras subir los videos subtitulados en español como el vídeo de un día como estudiante de informática de hace 3 años fuera genial

[anitaguelfo]

I’ve feel this way too last year. I’ve past a lot of time on screams and less doing meaningful things.
