Actually what i've come to realize is after watching thousands of self improvement videos over the years, and flooding my mind with concepts and formulas of productivity, succes, motivation, etcetera. What really helps you is shuting all of it down, social media, even youtube. And starting to DO, anything, just DO, and figure things out, just think for yourself, you are not going to find a magic bullet that's pain-free, the pain goes away once you start moving and getting good at what you are doing.

The real gem of this video was the point about how you'll never actually interact with the goal itself, 100% of the time you are interacting with the daily process/habit. Your relationship has to be with the process. You can't interact with "having 1 million subscribers", you have to interact with the routine of making 1 video a week consistantly, atleast as an example for me trying to build my YouTube channel. Great perspective shift!

Guys, you need to delve deeper into the rabbit hole; this is all surface level. Go to lexnory and read the forbidden books about matrix and human

I am a recovering alcoholic. I stopped drinking and smoking at the same day. The same day I started run 5km everyday at 5am. It's now 6 months later. I'm doing 10km everyday. I haven't missed 1 day. I don't care If Im tired. I don't care If the weather is shit. The best thing i ever done in my life. And I love it.

This guy does what it says on the tin. He gives us BETTER IDEAS. And I appreciate this guy as he has helped me so much mentally. Merry Christmas boys.

“Do it anyways + stop acting on feelings” has been an incredible game changer for me in the last month. I used to spend ALL my time thinking about all the changes I wish I could make “if I weren’t so tired, or if I had enough time” … well, after a while enough is enough. If you want to implement something new in your life, please just DO IT. You can decide after a few weeks if those things are worth keeping up or not. Stop psyching yourself out before you’ve even tried. Believe in yourself and the outcome. Give yourself permission to be happy.

This is so true. I started running just 5 minutes a day. The first couple of days was really hard to get motivated but I noticed I always felt great after the run. After a few more days I would be able to run without having a hard time catching my breathe and my mind would go “you know what I’ll go around the block one more time” the 5 minute run turned into 10 minutes. I felt energized all day and it made me want to run longer or do a couple of sit-ups when I got home, and I noticed I would look forward for my run everyday and this is coming from a very lazy person lol Whenever my schedules tight and I can’t go running I would feel like sht. People around me mention I’m more positive and I feel more relaxed mentally and physically. I would easily spend 10-30 minutes watching Netflix I know this sounds dramatic but the 5 minute run literally changed my life for the better.

I typed “how to change your life” and your vid came up. I am AMAZED at the amazing advice you’re giving!! It’s like you looked into my soul and spoke directly to it. Like saying it is bs to listen to that voice in your head and doing it anyway. I’ve been listening to that “I’m too tired, I’m too this and that” voice all my life. You express everything so beautifully and clearly. I am in awe. I will listen to this every morning and develop the processes. I will also set the intention to report back a year from now. Thank you. You gave me tools to finally get my ish together.

#1 pick one thing to focus on

- write down a list of things you want to work on
- where do you see yourself in 5 years
- write day to day habits that will help you get there
- are you comfortable commiting to these habits every single day?

#2 forcing yourself is a good thing

- don't let the resistance get the best of you
- pretty much 100% of the time, pushing yourself is the right decision

#3 make the process work for you

- you're on your own side
- make the things you want to do easier/more enjoyable
- modify the approach to help you

You could be in a way better place in a year / a couple months if you apply those strategies everyday

(Edit: I love how everyone in this comment section assumed I was a guy lmao)

[sanataniladka]

1. Focus on one thing
2.Force yourself
3 Make the process work for you
For the person who are in hurry 👆

This was great, thank you. I have been committed to bettering myself since I burnt out from work a month ago and finally took 2 weeks of PTO, my girlfriend broke up with me right when PTO started, but I am still driven, maybe even more so from the breakup. Your idea of recording things before morning coffee is great, and I have created a Google doc to record my progress. I'll leave a link to this video in the doc with a reminder to come back in one year and update this comment with what has happened.

A few things I am not following though are I am not just doing one thing, I know you said that can be detrimental, but I have and am used to a lot of things "cooking" at the same time, I believe without the distraction of my ex and with a little discipline I should be able to get a list and action plan together and record my progress over time. In a way, my "one thing" is keeping this plan of what I need to do... I think the key is not letting yourself say "Ah, I'm too tired to work out" as you mentioned in the video, and being diligent about recording updates in the morning before coffee and setting goals and time into your routine. That's the plan, thank you for the advice!

"You don't interact with the goal, you interact with the process" (paraphrased) is such a good thing to remember. I'm going to apply these tips as I develop my art skills this year.

[hih]

as someone who's been burnt out: when you're on your way to burnout, the voice in your head never tells you you're burnt out. it makes you believe you can and _should_ do everything. in this case, you need to stop yourself, and _not_ do all the things in the world to be productive, but instead focus on rest and recovery (especially if you haven't practiced that before).
however as someone's who's also struggling with depression, _that_ voice telling you that you can't do it is lying. you can do things like eat, exercise and brush your teeth. but when you don't, the voice is gonna tell you that you're lazy, and then it's just a vicious cycle of you telling yourself you can't do anything. you need baby steps and appreciating yourself for completing every baby step.
in both of these cases, you need to be more gentle with yourself, and prioritize self care, instead of tHe hUsTle lol.

for me, burnout was accompanied by depression, but they're extremely different & need to be handled differently (which is hard if they're there at the same time lol). the voice isn't always telling the truth, but it can also lie in both directions. most importantly, seek professional help if you think you might need it (i probably wouldn't have survived without real help tbh)

Thank you for your guidance. So important to keep evaluating and reflecting so you can live the best possible life. There is a lot to be said about forcing yourself to go to gym - I feel
So much better after a good work out - functional area, weight training, swimming, etc. I try to go 2-3 times a week but this can be a struggle to fit around work.

This channel has some of the best content that I’ve seen. About 12 years ago I decided I was not content with my current state of affairs in life. So in 12 years time I obtain associates degree, worked as a registered nurse, obtain my bachelors degree, got a divorce, and have almost obtained my masters degree. Prior to this I was working a trade and stuck in a marriage which I found out after I filed for divorce was actually really bad. Please keep this up and let’s hope that young Americans will continue to listen to what you say and improve their lives so that we may improve the United States so it will continue to be a beautiful country that is a joy to live in. Almost all of the concepts which you were presented in some of your videos I have followed and they have led to the success that I’ve had so far. Keep up the great content

I have a sneaking suspicion that whenever my brain tells me I'm burning out, in reality it's just trying to avoid doing the difficult task.

[loismcgregor]

Love this! Another thing that helps me with smaller tasks such as chores is that instead of saying “I’ll do it tomorrow”, say “I’ll do this for my tomorrow self” - think how your tomorrow self would feel waking up knowing that the thing you were going to put off has now already been done, leaving you more time to actually do what you wanted to do that day. Also I absolutely love Anker, I only own their portable chargers but they’re by far the best ones I’ve ever owned and I will definitely be buying more of their products!

[Jack.Ashford]

“Fall in love with the process itself” is an amazing quote. Changes a lot about how I view my goals

[Little.R]

Point #1 I'm so glad you emphasized "falling in love with the process" because that's 99% of how people reach goals. If you can't live with the day-to-day habit required to reach that goal then it's time to reevaluate. The habit becomes the goal itself and then you'll eventually arrive at your destination.

Cheers, Joe. I feel like I've been screwing up left and right over the last couple months (this whole year, really) and disappointing everyone, so much so that I'm dreading Christmas Day. You helped me remember that no matter how crap things get, it's not all a swirling vortex of chaos; strategy, determination, and patience will get you where you want to go, and with enough time you can set things right with the people you care about. Thanks, and Happy Holidays, everyone.
