4 TOXIC Everyday Habits that Are KILLING You! - Matthew Kelly

Video Transcript:

“If I told you there is a place near where you live that, if you went there, you would surely be killed, what would you do?

You wouldn’t go anywhere near it, would you? You probably wouldn’t go within ten blocks of it. You may even go miles out of your way to avoid getting close to that place.

But what if I told you that you do go there, multiple times a day? And rather than killing you all at once, you’re dying slowly over the course of many years?

What am I talking about? Bad habits. We all have them, and rather than running away from them and keeping them at a distance, we hold onto them and allow them to ruin our lives.

Here are 4 toxic, everyday habits that are killing you slowly:

1. Getting too little sleep. You know how much sleep you need, but you scroll through social media, check your e-mail, or worry about things you can’t control instead.

2. Drinking too little water. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. At best, dehydration causes low energy levels. At worst, it’s a factor in almost every sickness and disease.

3. Holding onto negativity. Negativity, worrying too much, and taking things personally which were not meant to be personal all lead to high stress, which is a factor in six of the leading causes of death in America today.

4. Always being busy. Will rushing about everywhere, always going to this party or that event kill you physically? Maybe not, but it will kill your soul. We need time to do nothing, to refresh, rejuvenate, and recharge our passion and energy for life.

Run away from the habits in your life that are killing you. Remove them from your life and never let them back in. And remember, don’t just be yourself… be the-best-version-of-yourself.”

[st.haborym]

I really like that attitude of "Be the best version of yourself"

[frannyleyden]

I used to start my day by going to the computer. Now I start it listening to you saying The Padre Pio prayer for healing, then the Rosary. This has helped a lot. I still go through stages of anxiety in regards to what is going on in this world but I believe it is the best way to start your day. I pray for your ministry daily. Thank you for all that you do.

I learned this years ago when I moved from FL to NC for a job. I had no choice but to make changes for my job. What I found was I wasn't getting enough sleep, I had no idea how dehydrated I was, I was always negative and I didn't realize how much "Noise" was in my life. This is massive Mr. Kelly and I agree with you whole hearted.

[kimberlyhauptman]

Good reminder to get to bed early, slow down, rest, drink water, and stop worrying. It's important to take care of my body with rest, plenty of water and let go of the worries that trouble my mind. I can take things personally when behaviors and comments have nothing to do with me. Let go, and Let God. Thank you, Matthew.

1. Public schools. 2. Government. 3. Alcohol and drugs. 4. Social media. I know, I’m posting this on social media, but I just can’t help myself.

[steviewonder]

A big one that somehow was neglected here. Eating healthy aka as many whole foods as possible, avoid processed foods and high alcohol consumption, don’t over eat.

[Chekmate]

Being too busy - does it seem like time flies, one day you were in your twenties and now you are in your fifties wondering where did the time go? Being too busy distorts our long-term sense of time which can lead to depression or regrets when we get older - slow down and smell the roses.

[krissk]

We have humans who are always in a hurry doing everything and nothing in the end.... busy harassing others and think they are happy....

[philippbogdan]

"Don't just be yourself, be the BEST version of yourself." Thank you man!

[chefbenardee]

[dawnmireles]

All of which I will need to address.
Sleep, drinking water, holding on to negativity, and always being busy filling up my time and can be overwhelming. You have given great advice.
