In this age where we’re exposed to what everyone around us is up to through social media, we often find us comparing ourselves with others, and in turn feel a sense of lack for what we don’t have. Instead, stay away from social media, and be grateful everyday for what you already have 😊

"If you can't change it, change your attitude." "Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change." “Change is painful, but nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don't belong.” "Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything."

I wanna share my little story. There was a period in my life where I was lost, I finished school, could not get a job, got a heartbreak, and basically I was spending my days numb in bed, not doing anything, not wanting to eat or to you know, even take showers. But I decided to change it, I read about happiness steps, I bought sudoku, and I was doing it also I was making myself tea, and it was super hard to enjoy it at the begining, but every day it was getting better and better, I was doing more steps, I started to pay more attention to things around me and not inside me, and somehow I got out. Now since that time I enjoy every little thing, I find happiness easily.

Its not only boring but I suck at life. I dont have friends, I have social anxiety, I dont have money and nobody wants to hire me. I really dont know how long I can sustain myself to be honest. Sometimes I think life just isnt meant for me and I dont mean to sound suicidal because Im not, I just mean Im very bad at living a normal life like everyone else.

You're so great, Ruri. I generally HATE productivity YouTube. I personally find it very toxic, counter-productive and unrealistic. I always find your content to be truthful, enlightening and helpful. You do your research and include scientific explanations, but at the same time you include humanising elements to make these solutions tie-in in a satisfying overall feeling. I'm a neurodivergent and I am trying extremely hard these days to understand myself. It can be a chore to filter through the content that's going to genuinely provide me with support and some answers. You're one of those people and I am very grateful. Just taking the opportunity to give you genuine thanks!

A life without a vision feels meaningless and boring. We all need a goal and vision to look forward to, and while you’re at it, try to make the journey to your goal fun 🙌🏼😇

I would love to add another tip: try to heal your inner child.
I don't really remember much from childhood but as I started unfolding it, I rediscovered myself and things that I used to like/love but totally forgot about them !
I personally don't enjoy sports, but I love bicycling and roller skating.
I don't enjoy hard-thinking activities, but I love reading and journaling.
I don't like relaxing and yet taking bath and lighting a candle helps !
It may seem like nothing but those things improved my life a lot and astonishingly they were the kind of things I used to do as kid. Sometimes it's not something new that our soul craves, but past familiar stuff
I sincerely hope that all of you will find something that you like !!

The pain when you feel the person described in the intro is you yourself... Great video, thank you for the efforts to encourage us to be the best version of ourselves 💙

Happiness is not something to find, it's just something we create, thank you for making this kind of videos, it really help me to improve myself love from India🇮🇳

This video literally explained and put into words so eloquently what I'm going through. Thank you for making this video Ruri Ohama - It's extremely helpful as first step, especially as I've been feeling unable to even know what to do to break this cycle. You've gained a subscriber and you've genuinely helped bring positive change into my life. Thank you a million times!

Thank you so much for this video. As for a teacher in school, who burns out almost every day at work, those important things (like CREATING your free time, focusing on schedule, etc.) are so easy go forget about in never-ending routing and tiredness...
Thank you for reminding about this little but very important things ❤️
May everything will be good in your life✨

The advantage of watching multi language channels is that they give you a wider view of productivity not relying only on English/ western selfdev books and i find that amazing! This is what made me notice this channel cuz it s different and refreshing ❤

5:00 I would say more important factors for your hobby that would stimulate you in a healthy way would be:
1. the hobby needs to be social, practice it with other people so you can all share the time together, have fun, laugh, experience and enjoy life
2. the hobby needs to have some sort of progression built into it, whenever you progress your brain will give you a reward for improving and accomplishing a goal
3. combining the previous two you get another reward - whenever you get better and get a new skill in your hobby you could impress the other people in your social group or the people with whom you are practicing the hobby - this means you get another reward from your brain - you get to feel good because you receive social approval and admiration

thank you for im 19 and im going through my quarterlife crisis. My environment is FILLED with instant dopamine. I have became accustomed to falling into these easy-accesible temptations and I give in every time. You are like a mentor saying words that i need to hear while giving multiple viable options to substitute these guilty pleasures. this video was a like a stick giving me a spank saying "straighten yourself" (out of love obv). thank u truly for, this video!

You’ve put so many thoughts I’ve had this year into words. After going thru a traumatic event, I’ve been grinding my brain for an entire year trying to figure out how to make my life better. After a ton of trial and error, ultimately I came down to this exact process. And I guess someone wrote a book about the same conclusion I came to!! Absolutely crazy. It feels good not knowing I’m alone. This process works, it gave me a lot more meaning in the hardest time of my life. I definitely recommend trying it out to anyone who’s struggling. Lean into any semblance of joy you can, even if it’s just coffee, and keep building on top of it every day

[khalilahd.]

I love that you find scientific, proven ways to navigate productivity. I’m learning so much. Thank you 🙏🏽

My journey through sadness started when I realised I failed and I wasn't able to reach my goals. My worst nightmares came out and I have to give up and start to search a full time job. But I am proud person, I truly believe what you do everyday helps you to feel satisfied and now that I have a job I don't like, a stressful job I feel myself mentally tired, I am trying to change my life but is not that easy, sometimes I am more positive and I think I can succeed and sometimes I feel like I have any chance to change my life
