30 Days To A More Fulfilling Life

If your life is boring, you’re not doing enough of what matters to you. You’re sleepwalking through life doing the stuff that happens automatically - setting your alarm, working, watching TV, eating, going to bed.

That’s why I’m prioritising the stuff that matters to me. This video is the wake-up call you need if you feel like your life is boring. These are the techniques that I use to analyse how I’m spending my time, and figure out what I can do differently for a happier, more fulfilling life.

The biggest regret of people on their deathbed is not living a life that was true to themselves, and instead living the life others expected of them. So, this is your call to make sure you don’t die with that regret 💪

About Me

I'm a lawyer, part-time YouTuber, son, brother, startup founder, fiancé, black coffee drinker and plant dad. I graduated from Cambridge University (where I studied French and Spanish), topped my law school class and now work for a corporate law firm in London as a trainee solicitor (which takes up a lot of my time)!

Around that, I'm a big fan of discovering new ways of thinking, of balancing work with life, and of performing to the very best of my ability. Ohh, and being happy. And I try to share all that on this YouTube channel 😀

Fun fact: I believe we massively overplay the role of “natural talent” 😮 AND… I also believe that TOGETHER, WE ARE ALL CAPABLE OF POSITIVITY, PRODUCTIVITY AND SUCCESS.

From 28 to 33 tomorrow personally turned my life around. Successful business.
Working on stuff I wanna work on. Hang around with the people I wanna hang around with.
But I only got there through hard work. Not by enjoying myself. Will I regret it when I die ? Maybe. I don't think so tho

[deelawyer]

I enjoyed this. Working as a Solicitor is full-on! The fulfillment I get from helping people satisfies me, that said no one stayed on their deathbed needing to carry out more work. I have been more intentional with spending time with my family and following my faith in God. That gives me great joy. I agree with Job, we are indeed naked.

[FrancescBox]

I’m 56yo, and feel “trapped” in a job I’m good at, very well paid…. but I do not enjoy. And too old to change career path as, if it does not go well, I no longer have margin to rectify. I regret quitting my developer job when I was 30, which I enjoyed. Maybe I would not have last, but I’ll never know. Do not get to the “too late” stage.

[ramzial-shurman]

i will be quitting my job to follow my passion in aviation. I need to pave my own path and this video helped me realize that. Thank you Liam!

[debjeetm]

I will change my life around. I am 37 now. I have 50 dollars in my account. I have a website design online business where I haven't got any client for last 1.5 years. I also gave up. But not anymore. In nest 2yrs I want to see a turnaround. I don't hope I am surely giving it a last shot.

[Zilero]

For me, a proper fitness routine. Overall very thought provoking. I’ve been struggling with these some of these same thoughts, so thank you for this.

[lucagreen]

Saying yes to all potential plans that come my way, instead of picking and choosing what I want to do. Book more time for myself to go travelling around the UK and prioritise the growth and appreciation I want to have for nature.

Great video Liam, as always.

[dylanbrower]

I would recommend "The Miracle Morning" by Hal Elrod. I found that I could focus on improving myself in just 1 hour every day before my wife and baby were awake and before I had to go to work. It's a very quick read and helped me feel like I could break the typical rut while maintaining consistency and a routine in my life.

[ursulaclarke]

Less sitting down watching stuff in the evenings, do more of what I love

[natmonee]

I am definitely seizing the opportunity post being laid off from my job after working for 30 years. Making sure the next 20 are spent doing truly what is in my heart and not just what I am very good at.

[shradhapandey]

How do you re-concile your life whilst balancing a positive impact on the world while also working and progressing through your job as a corporate lawyer?

[Boshby]

Me personally, I've already made the decision to go to University and Study Law this September at the age of 26, as it is something I would regret not doing. I haven't had the opportunity to do so until now, so I am taking the plunge. I'm excited & also nervous.
Furthermore, I have been saying to myself for over 12 months I'll start boxing. Next Thursday, I am going to commit to my first session.
My Menos backpack is also getting ordered this week, in preparation for University.
Thanks Liam, keep up the great content.

[yamani]

Nice video man! And cool to see the Philips shaver you're using, I used to be its product manager :D

[olzhas.abubakirov]

Liam, insanely-edited video! 🚀

Love it! I will defenetly try to watch Ali Abdaal editing videos.

Also, could you please describe what camera you use to record videos?

[mitchw]

This was a helpful video and a good framework for thinking about long term planning. Thanks!

[no_one]

Just found this channel recently, it really made my day! Thank you so

Great video! What is the best way for us to connect virtually?

Don't die with the music still in you

[sophieeeee]

Hey man, I really like the philosophical question behind this topic of looking back and thinking about your life and the next 5 years etc. This question I think is basically: WHAT ON EARTH ARE WE DOING HERE?

And I honestly do not want to preach to people, in a way that is weird or like I know better than everyone else. But I just want to share my story briefly... and maybe it'll spark some interest or intrigue amongst others. Take it or leave it, as they say!

I don't believe in religion, but I do believe in Jesus, that He is God. This would make me a Christian, and someone who follows the Bible as like a love letter from God to mankind- like a guide where you can understand the world and the reason why things are so messed up and broken, but was never meant to be this way. One day, the Bible says, there will be a new earth... and this one will be perfect, with people loving each other and also knowing God, in a perfect way. Not that we'll be robots, but because God will help us not do bad things, and bad things won't happen to us.

But... this is only possible if we have a connection with God (and because God is SO scarily holy/perfect, we can't ever be good enough or even if we have just done ONE tiny thing wrong (which is true of everyone!)... we can't connect with Him. Therefore, the Bible says that Jesus lived a perfect life and then paid the price for all we have done wrong... every little thing... so that we can ask Jesus for this forgiveness He's paid for, and so be in a relationship with Him, with God.

Don't get me wrong, we will still do things wrong whilst we're in this imperfect place, and imperfect body. But, God is with us to help us love and live for Him, and also 'love your neighbour' (other people). We live WITH God, and out of talking to Him, asking Him to help us and talk to us about things through the Bible, give us peace, and love, healing, hope, patience, all these awesome things... out of all this we live FOR God. Religion says live FOR God. As in, just get on with it, and try to be good enough. Christianity (as in, non-legalistic, true to the Bible and genuinely following Jesus Christianity) says... live WITH God as a free gift, and OUT OF THAT relationship with Him, He helps us live for Him (i.e. love Him and people, in a nutshell).

My story is: I have come to Jesus myself, and know this relationship with Him. I don't feel I have to prove myself and be good enough. I'm secure, safe with Him. I won't lose Him. I have incredibly purpose in life, as I live with Him every day, asking Him to help me with problems, any worries, asking Him to help me live and love and give me purpose. In a final nutshell... this, I believe is the answer to the WHY ON EARTH ARE WE HERE question I posed. To know God (as a free gift because Jesus can make us right with Him), and to live with purpose every day as we live with Him, and He helps us live for Him.

Thank you if you read all of this! Don't let anyone force you to believe anything... but simply take it or leave it! Or even look into it, or reach out to Jesus. But yeah, we all have free will, and I hope this didn't come across as preachy in a negative way. Just want to share what I have!

Hey, awesome video !
Don’t you think that’s it’s a little bit contradictory to write his own eulogy while saying that you should consider more what you want instead of getting guided all the time by the expectations of others ?
