Neat

Why is this so entertaining 😭😭😭

I hate whenever anyone would say I'm talented. No, I'm not. I wasn't born with some innate ability. No one is born an expert. Hard work and introspection to find a new avenue pays off.

How do I find KZbinrs with ADHD more entertaining to watch? I don't have(or isn't diagnosed?) with ADHD I guess, but I relate 100% with the problems they have... I fully relate the fact that doing things greatly or behaving nicely gives me more free time and that free time means more video games😂

I just found this in my watch later list

I like the sonic comparison!! I have autism and i like mario cuz he has a very straightforward goal: save the princess

Me having to constantly rewind cause I keep daydreaming mid video MIGHT be an indicator

That speech on ADHD was the length of the gameplay of Sonic 3 & Knuckles 🤣

1:49 Bro I got called out LMAO

Yo society isn't done yet. You kept referring to "thousands of years ago" like it's the only place for new discoveries or potential for ADHD people to work, but we need people of all kinds still in the here and now. We still need new inventions, improvements, and so much. I think the video games can become a way of coping from a toxic part of society that tries to kill creative minds...

so when i started learning about this so called flow state- *misses the jump* son of a b*tch

I think this might be the most useful and helpful video I have ever watched ^^ I originally just wanted to let this video play for a few seconds to have it in my history but you quickly managed to have the attention of my entire brain and now I'm writing this comment after I finished it in one go without clicking off xD (Perhaps I was so intrigued that I actually went into a flow state?) As someone with multiple overlapping neurodivergent traits, likely including adhd, I cannot stress enough just how much I resonate with this and how I feel like I see the whole world more clearly now. Thank you so much <3

20:00 you should try to not start a new take, change your tone and start reading from a script when doing an ad, its really jarring.

Really good video, could do without the snake oil salesman ad

I felt so called out when you said “to those of you listening to this while playing games” considering I was doing exactly that😭

The Emperor ironically looks more like the penguin from Batman than an actual one.

I hate when i enter the flow state and then i fall out if it because i realize I’m in the flow state.

it was so good, until sponsor, cant blame ya for the bag tho

Now do Shadow Generations

for once calling me out for 2x speed

U've cancelled out wateva contribution to the problem U think you made

My man, this is a great video but, check me out what you’re talking about around 10 minutes is dopamine. I’m 27 as well but, I was diagnosed at a young age and was put on too much medication (90mgs of adderall a day from 12-18) which messed up the production of dopamine in my brain, dopamine is what creates that “rewarding” feeling in the brain, my dopamine production/receptors are screwed due to the meds I was on and now I can’t get out of bed with out them, and yeah I tried a year without them and was a mess

you made me accept myself a little more, I have ADD

1:47 I would never! .... I'm watching at 1.25× speed

XD the gameplay aligned so well 25:39

Hey man, I saw this video back in may. Sat with it for a long while, marinated and even procrastinated too. But it turns out, I've been enjoying the art of creation lately. Its amazing to get all these ideas out of my head and into something tangible. Its been beautiful, despite each of my projects getting exponentially more complex. I enjoy it, hard to believe 10 years I've told myself I couldn't ever do this kinda thing (POV Windows Movie Maker in 2013) but its been a very fulfilling activity. Wanted to comeback and tell you thanks

Since moving to the Netherlands to study, I've found myself traveling all over to any friends I knew spread across the country. People in my life pointed out how I was always in a different city every day and I myself likened it to side quests I did to keep myself moving. This video really resonated with me in that regard and so many others (including Sonic), so thank you so much for providing a voice of direction and encouragement! (Extra points for the spinning in place and taking off thing... Sonic really strangely fits all of this so well, makes sense why I gravitate to the franchise so much)

Thank you I'm currently doing home work and repeatedly got distracted by it but what you said kept bringing me back

SPINNNNNNNN (Thank you for mentioning that i could put the video on 2x speed, i love these sorts of videos and they help me a lot but some times they're so long that it's hard to actually sit through them while doing something else, great video, new sub!)

I really like your stylistically-appropriate pauses.

have you read The War of Art by Steven Pressfield? its a motivational/self help book that talks about a lot of subjects this video and the ego bring up. if you havent read it I would highly recommend it! I'm usually pretty wary of self help books especially with a lot of "self help" influencers online generally being really terrible (like andrew tate), but it was a very down to earth book, not too long, and isnt focused on the "grindset" type of stuff. the author usually writes fiction so its a pretty entertaining read too, I'm pretty sure its the first nonfiction book I've read in full that wasn't required for school

This helped me a lot on figuring out why I couldn't pay attention in some classes and just conked asleep, but MAN is the test bubble thing relatable, the best way i could ever get through it was pretending they were racing to have the most filled in, which led to me changing my answers to make my favorite letter win lol

6:50 im thinking about hydro city zone, not hydrossity zone

I see sonic, I click

i came to the video to find out how to be more productive hoping id get an answer, i ended up not even listening to the video and playin it in the background while i actually got stuff done.😭however, i did pick up on a few things and this video was really neat. thanks!

I clicked this video thinking it would be sonic related but this has really making me wanna learn more about the flow state and use it to improve my overall health :33

4:28 I didn’t even realize this was live commentary until here lmao, caught me WAY off guard

not even 1/3rd through the video and i think this is a masterclass in synthesization

Dude, you made the only 15+ minute video I didn't actually continue later lmfao (Thanks man this helps a lot also)

I honestly didn't realise that you were playing Sonic live while talking about this. Well done for multitasking.

0:07 my dad walked in and just stared at me

Tutor in Mental Wellbeing here, and someone with BPD. This is a fantastic video, you've done well to understand yourself over the years, and do a great job of that conveying that info 😊

god dammit i fell for it again

He's like me fr fr

This video was sitting in my "watch later" since it got published and I just now went back to comb through videos I didn't watch over the past month. I was on a Sonic video essay bender and saw Sonic in the thumbnail and was like "hell yeah another Sonic video essay" but was pleasantly surprised that it was not that at all, but something a bit more meaningful lmao

Honestly, I just watched the gameplay and didn’t even pay attention to what he was saying

Dr. K my homie !

Idk if this says something about me when; my plan was to listen to music and make coffee for myself... I spent 13 minutes on this video just sitting on the couch watching this instead of doing that. Also, maybe you might clarify in my comment? Dunno, but... whenever I play a game, and am into it and doing extremely well and am fully immersed and stuff, I myself call that being "in a State" or "Flow." Is that right?

That thing at 10:56 is robot chicken...oh wait, it's a cluckoid 🐔🎮

PEAK VIDEO?!?!?!?
