me wasting my life by watching videos on how to stop wasting my life.

In Case you don't have 17 Minutes:
The speaker reflects on a day of feeling extremely unmotivated, where they spent hours mindlessly consuming entertainment (video games, YouTube, etc.) but eventually gave up trying to be productive and felt tired of their distractions.
They decided to take a break by doing nothing for a few minutes, which surprisingly led to a shift in their mindset, and they began feeling motivated to tackle tasks they had been procrastinating on, like work, fitness, and personal goals.
The speaker realized that constantly engaging in high-dopamine activities (games, videos, etc.) raised their dopamine baseline, making meaningful tasks seem unappealing, and doing nothing helped lower dopamine levels, reigniting interest in productive tasks.
They observed that starting their day without distractions and immediately focusing on work led to more productive, fulfilling days and greater motivation to pursue personal goals, like going to the gym or eating healthier.
The speaker emphasizes that most people struggle with motivation not because tasks are inherently difficult but because they live in a constant state of dopamine stimulation, making it hard to shift focus to lower-dopamine activities like work or personal growth.

Can confirm it's working, I've been doing nothing succesfully for several years now.

"Stop comparing your life to others' lives, and start comparing your past self to present self" You'll start doing much better and motivated. Trust me on that

My wife and I lost our first child on the 30th of July this year, 2024. His name was Nino. He died two days after he was born, and we were in and out of the hospital for weeks prior. Then a week later I got laid off from my job. I started my own business a month before, but because I did that I don’t qualify for unemployment. It’s been a rough time. I know the feelings of needing to just surrender it all. Something’s in life are out of our control.

Very relatable. The dopamine chase is real, I hate it when I get stuck in it. It's so satisfying to start or finish something I've been putting off for a long time.

[anandshirsat]

Starting and ending the day with meditation saved my life. It's the next stage in doing nothing.

This video motivated me, and now my living room is clean 👍

[khalidhassan]

i just work and come home to youtube. i think thats all i need to fulfill my life

[Rakyr]

That definitely helped me...I spend the first 10 minutes each morning with no phone...just my tea and my thoughts and that it puts me into a better position to make good quality decisions throughout he day. Thanks for the great video Rob, another banger.

I didn't watch your video but your title actually saved my life. I decided to do nothing and it paid off. It saved my life . Sometimes doing nothing is better than doing something stupid. Anyways just wanted to say thanks.

I learned so much about dopamine in the last couple of years but this is by far the most relatable, realistic and easily applicable way of talking about it…very nice video!

[trp]

This video was a fantastic breakdown of our modern dilemma of dopamine overstimulation and provided a simple and effective solution. Amazing stuff, much appreciated Mr. Mulder

I've had the same, I grew so tired of giving up, I gave up on giving up, and turned my life around. :P
