Got my phone stolen once. It was a very weird week.. I think the carrying it around with us everywhere is more of a physical habit. For example, feeling your phone in your pocket. You get used to sensation and once it’s not there - you feel something missing. So I would add to the video that it’s not just the dopamine addiction but a physical one as well. Just like smoking. When you smoke you get addicted not just to the nicotine, but to the sensation of holding the filter in your mouth, sense of smoke moving through your lungs, a smoker even gets used to holding the cigarette a certain way. I mean smoking is definitely worse than phone addiction, but this comparison might explain the toughness of the addiction. When you are in an aeroplane- you can’t smoke and you won’t.. same as if you forgot your phone at home. But as soon as you are out of the airport - it all kicks in again.

@@aleksandrmisnov Really good point! Reminds me of when I was in bootcamp. Guys would quit smoking for two months, no problem, because they simply didn’t have a choice. Then the second we got out of basic, the same guys were chain smoking nonstop.

Love the advice in this video man. There’s always this incomparable feeling of satisfaction and triumph when you go through some of those trials in life, and make it out successful on the other side. It’s important to feel like winners in life, and one of the only ways to harness that feeling is to face those hard times.

Here's a tip that I find useful in doing a single task that I've been putting off because I dread it: I imagine or visualize myself doing it and finding it not nearly as bad as I've been expecting. After doing this a few times on a few different days, I can decide to go ahead and tackle the task. Having finally gotten it done makes me feel good, even if it wasn't the greatest experience.

Might want to check out: Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihály Csíkszentmihályi I've found that splitting up my study times actually results in less progress. Where if I get into the material "flow" and go until I hit a dead end or feel tired, I'm able to make far more progress in less overall time. Aside from the Pomodoro point, everything else in this video was excellent and spot on!

My favorite one is the major car insurance company that says "Those who switched saved an average of x dollars..." Well, what about all of those who DIDN'T switch, because they wouldn't have saved diddly or would have paid more? It proves nothing! Another one that everybody believes is that half of all marriages end in divorce. That was never true. The ratio of U.S. divorces to marriages in any given year peaked in the early 1980s and has dropped steadily ever since. That's still not even good science, because those who divorce and those who marry in any given year are NOT nearly the same people. Also, many who divorce do so multiple times and thereby skew the stats, but those who never divorce marry only once. The truth is that first-time marriages in the U.S. stand better than a 75% chance of lasting for life.

I'm a 31 year old man and I have a kid also and am currently broke. I don't think a lot of people realize how ashamed one can feel when you feel you can barely provide for your kid yourself. I applaud you for seeing the way out though and committing to bettering your future. I've started learning python though and I already feel better. I like hearing stories like this. My wife's divorcing me and my life is kind of falling apart, but I feel if I just spend literally all my time coding I can't help but 2x my income in 2 years. I just wasted lots of my 20s but now that I have a kid I've been spending lots of time outside work taking college classes to get an accounting degree, but it is going to take me forever and I likely won't make that much. Coding has the added benefit of being able to make money on your own, if you are good enough at it.

Hey Justin, I appreciate you watching my video and sharing some of your story with me. I was in a very similar situation to you. I won't say "I know how you feel", but it was probably damn close. I wasted my 20's, mismanaged my money, and didn't really take life seriously until my kid came along. I had similar relationship problems , and I know the shame all too well of not feeling like you can provide... That being said, I commend you for working hard to give your kid a better life. It's not easy, in fact it's damn hard, but the feeling of accomplishment you'll have when you finally land that first job will make all the effort worth it. You're going through a rough time, but take all that pain and frustration and use it to make you better. Thanks again, and feel free to reach out anytime if you need some motivation or any advice. I'll do my best to help. My email is in my youtube bio. - Josh

This would make a great video idea, so thanks for the comment. To give some tips that help me, 1. Get enough sleep. 7-8 hours a night as often as possible. Sounds simple, but most people miss that. 2. No screens an hour before bed. The blue light is terrible for our sleep cycle and hurts the quality of our sleep. 3. Improve your nutrition and exercise if you don't already. If you eat like crap, you'll feel like crap. And if you want the best energy boost possible, naturally, then start exercising. Running, lifting weights, martial arts, crossfit. Doesn't matter. Just get the blood pumping. 4. And lastly be mindful how you use caffeine. If you use too much caffeine, it affects your sleep. If you don't use any, maybe consider using it strategically for an energy boost when you have to get a lot of work done. Hope this helps. Look out for a video on this topic and I'll go more in detail!
