all i took away from this video was that every mundane thing i do sounds way more important if i imagine its on a spaceship.

I'm in shock... Parents, friends, therapists, teachers all tried to teach me how to do this... And this made 1000% more sense

"unlike excercise, it's not simple to just lie down and 1, 2, 3, sleep"

My dad: *you underestimate my power*

IMPORTANT NOTE: You do not need a pandemic or a lockdown order to create the spaceship You. It is now November 2021, and I am FINALLY starting to create my spaceship. Long overdue, but I know there are at least a few of you out there in similar situations.

my man just made an 11 minute tutorial on how not to be depressed

[aidanpaul]

This has to be the best representation I've ever seen for one's health

[sackixfilms]

You’re probably watching this from your default station: couch

Jokes on you Grey, I’m watching this from the maintenance station: toilet

[BrianFrichette]

This is a beautiful and succinct guide to maintaining a healthy quality of life. Thank you.

[cemo]

When the pandemic is long enough so that even CGP Grey can upload a 10 minute video related to the current events.

[jaydougan]

for everyone who's watching it now: it's never too late to improve your station. You got this, Captain.

[LeaveDavidAlone]

I don't think we appreciate just how good of a writer Grey is.

"The mental and physical are halves of a whole, so accelerating one accelerates the other. Each adds to the total momentum making additional pushing easier, priming the core, creating motion, making light and order."

Captain's Log 2021/10/20: It has been approximately a year and a half since launch, though we are now in a state where inter-pod existence is possible, I am still largely within my own pod. Outside factors have damaged the mental half of the core, but re-watching this guide has set me on a path to recovery. Thank you, Admiral Grey, thank you.

The music choice is genius here. At the beginning, he has some of his normal music until spaceship you lifts off, changing to a melancholy piano piece as he talks about the changes ahead before fading into a positive space-like theme as he explains the stations on spaceship you.

[jakubmata]

Parents: "CLEAN YOUR ROOM! YOU CAN´T LIVE LIKE THAT!"
Me: "Yeah, maybe later"
Grey: "Your living place should be clean and nice"
Me: "Omg, he´s right, Imma do it"

[madelinegolding]

I feel like this could just be for people who are moving out to live on their own.

[jellyfishjames]

I love how he throws the book at 1:40 to propel himself forward. He could have tried to swim over but Grey's too smart for that.

[StevenKR]

I feel like this is general life advice that goes beyond just during the shutdowns.

[avishekchatterjee]

This was posted a year ago (exactly), when the pandemic was just starting. Back then, the videos that became "viral" were about handwashing. This video is far more important, and could have been beneficial to a lot more people. This deserves at least 10 times as many views.

Instructions unclear:
My landlord got pissed at me for drawing the 4 stations on the walls and glueing my couch to the ceiling.

[ActivelyMike]

This is fantastic. You are truly a gifted writer and educator. Thank you.
