32 ways to be better at life

[@bobbywells7286]

My tip: if you're alone, bored and feel the impulse to fill that boredom with an unhealthy habit (doom scrolling, binging, smoking, drinking, etc) cold call a close friend or loved one instead. Not to talk about that impulse but just to catch up with someone who you care about. In my experience this always leaves me feeling energized, connected, fulfilled, and much better than said habit ever could :)

I was thinking about this the other days that how people in the past (as an Asian) used to do things, house chores for instance, in groups like washing the dishes or cutting and cooking ingredients for a meal and they would talk and have fun while doing some work, now this practice is dissappearing slowly. Bottom line, you are right!

[@LedgerAndLace]

GREAT list! Here's my input about LAUNDRY: The transitional place is hooks. Great for jackets, jammies, jeans you only wore for a couple hours. Things that aren't dirty, but you don't want to fold and put away. It keeps things up and not getting wrinkled at the bottom of a pile. Then you can use the chair for sitting. Also, put the laundry basket where you're dropping your dirty clothes anyway. Voila--organized. Wash in cold water and don't bother sorting colours, and don't fold stuff that doesn't matter. Buy all matching socks in those multi-packs and you'll never have to sort. Have dedicated baskets for towels & washcloths, socks & undies, bed linens ,everyday clothes. If your dresser is piled with clean clothes, get rid of it and use bins--no lids! Way easier to toss clean clothes into. I bring some bins into the laundry room and clean clothes go straight into the bins from the dryer. Done. Life is too short to deal with Laundry Friction Points!

@@gheedough Hahaha "Floordrobe." I have hooks in every room. Very functional!

[@LedgerAndLace]

@@Prawnii You are so welcome! It only took me a coupla decades to create a system. The bins idea came from Cas at Clutterbug who said, "Is your dresser piled high with clean clothes and your drawers are empty except for clothes you don't wear? Get rid of your dresser and get bins." I actually have a standing closet rack unit on wheels. It has 2 shelves that hold my bins. I use regular closets for other kinds of storage. It's not in the way of anything, but easily accessible. This is the third bedroom I've had it in and it has served me well! I recently repurposed a wooden filing cabinet to store everyday stuff: socks, camisoles, leggings, etc. Conveniently located in between my bathroom and closet unit for easy access. The key is to be functional and to remove as many obstacles as possible to make it quick, easy and convenient. Congrats on your move!

[@KanTasia98]

My personal tip that I learned while getting older: When in a social situation where drinking is normal, just stick to one drink and then switch to non-alcoholic. It's usually not worth it to drink more (at least for me) and the energy and time you save that your body would need for recovery or not being hung over the next day is usually much more important for me.

[@JohnnyVichi]

yeah, dont drink alcohol socialy, keep alcohol only for celebrations. we celebrate like 10 times in a year and some of this celebrations are not even "alcohol friendly". At least this its my experience Drinking edit: By celebrations, I mean things YOU want to celebrate, a co-worker birthday, for example, its not necessarily a celebration for you.

[@finawatsonart]

A tip I learnt this year - if you get a hunch that someone is having a tough time send them a message or call them to check in - a simple "hey you seemed a bit low today, anything I can do?" is enough.

I did the "buy the book" thing for awhile until one day I was at a used bookstore and found a book I'd given someone on a shelf. My heartfelt note was written on the inside cover and I have a strong hunch they never saw it 😂

[@m.maclellan7147]

Yes, but if I was in that place I would have thanked "The Fates" that they showed me that person is NOT as close to you as YOU thought. So, you can stop thinking of them as a "close friend" & consider them more as an acquaintance. Some people say the right words, but as that book says "They're just not that into you!" !!!! OR, perhaps that person prefers audio books (I know I do!). I would have been tempted to buy the book, put one of those "This book belongs to..." stickers OVER the inscription and keep that book around as a reminder that not everyone is worth buying a book for (and that's okay! You should have good friends even if you are poor !) Or, to ask if you can "buy" them the audio book version. I would assume you could do this on Audible?! My 2 cents. Feel free to ignore 😌

@@m.maclellan7147 Mostly now I see the humor in it but if we're being honest it also gave me a moment of self-reflection. It's kind of arrogant to say I think you need this book so I'm going to make sure you have it whether your want it or not. If anyone was pinning something on someone it was me trying to pin my thoughts/interests onto her. She was right to sell it without reading it.

[@lauravsthepage]

@@Rachel-sv9pq this is a really mature way to look at it. A book is a decently sized time commitment, and honestly even if you are a big reader there are SO many books out there and not enough time to read all the ones you are interested in. At least at a used book store it has a chance to be enjoyed by someone who actually can enjoy it instead of just sitting on a shelf somewhere. I like the tip in theory but unless you really understand/know someones reading habits the gifted book will probably end up collecting dust on a book shelf.

Even if you can't use your legs, if you have a good wheelchair, taking a walk is divine.

Seeing nature change from day to day, dodging traffic, figuring out how to get around an obstacle, and just being outside clears my head and lifts my mood.

Tip #10 at 4:12 is pure gold. My tip is: "You're not hungry - you're bored." I still remember the moment I had an epiphany about this, back when I used to live with my folks, and I was looking in the fridge and it hit me. So I acknowledged it by saying it aloud, and then went to find something more productive to do. I definitely think it was because I had this epiphany several years prior that I gained no "snack weight" during the 2020 quarantine. Please note: if your stomach is growling, you are legitimately hungry and you should eat. But you should eat a meal, not snacks. (In my opinion, the whole concept of snacking is mostly fueled by boredom. There are some exceptions, like unexpectedly having to work a long shift, and you need to eat something in a hurry on your break. Other than that kind of situation, though, snacks tend to be purely recreational. Think it over for a bit, and you'll see what I mean.)

Genuinely in my top 5 all time favorite KZbinrs. What you said about the guy giving specific and memorable advice instead of little “platitudes” literally reflects what you do on your whole channel. Your videos helped me get out of my head and feel better about the way my life’s going. I tend to be someone who feels unproductive and undeserving of my achievements but I’m starting to gain perspective and realize what I am proud of and what I WANT to improve (self-worth, patience) rather than what I think I SHOULD improve (forcing myself to be on top everything all the time even though that ends up draining me even more). You’re the best at making me feel like I’m right where I should be and what happens next is up to me.

One tip that changed my life this year is that sometimes overcommitting can be a helpful tool when you struggle to build a good habit. For me, this was building a habit to go to the gym and ACTUALLY push myself, not just go for the sake of going. I did this by entering my first ever powerlifting competition and buying all the paraphernalia you need to commit. I found this would make me feel bad about not going to the gym because I spent so much money on it and had committed to competing. TBH it really helped me build a good habit and I'm glad I did it because not only have I met some awesome people, but I feel a lot better about myself too

This could be envy or intimidation. They liked you when they were on level or above you and could comfortably look down on you.

Could you try making videos that help explain or explore the creative process in more detail - for people that want to be creative or pursue a creative/unusual career or hobby, but just don't quite know how, like mentally, their brain just doesn't quite get it. Also please more videos on how to keep from feeling bored or unfulfilled or empty in life?

It's like this constant buzzing that tells people they have to do something, they have to do it immediately, and perfectly. I've put so much effort into quelling the pressure of productivity that I internalized. I get lonely, but it's more worth it to be at home with friends at our most comfortable. I am also putting lots of work mentally into distancing myself from labels and buzzwords so I can experience concepts as they are instead of compartmentalized ideas. That's not a great way to describe it, but hopefully, that resonates with someone.

I really like you. How you paint things. Your perspective. It’s fresh and I appreciate you for that….

[@vans2548]

The urgency bad deal tip is real. It's so easy to get overwhelmed in the moment and panic yes, but, man, get burned enough times and you learn to recognize the tactic.

[@Novstie]

Dude. Every video you post gets better and better! The production quality, the attention to detail- hell, double tasking with youtube was (and sometimes still is) a big problem for me, but with videos like these, it's so easy for me to watch with my total attention. It's awesome to see more and more personality bursting from each video uploaded.. combined with the way your videos have helped me shift my life for the greater good, it's really inspiring. Keep it up :)

[@fennellexe]

Been watching a couple of your videos the past couple days, loving them! Great stuff!

Think a compliment and say it out loud is what I have been doing for a while (I guess because of this video) and it is just really an energy booster.

[@hannahgohya]

literally on a walk listening/watching this 🤘 happy new year!!

I'll never do half these things, but it's still one of my favorite videos--so creative and singular, inspired me to make my own list!

[@ITzuck]

Your recent videos have been such a pleasure to watch lately! Absolutely gonna make my own and aggressively share with my friends :D

[@KateAmberYoga]

My first video of yours and I came here for the weird finger thumbnail. Now I'm a subscriber!

[@Shnooosan]

You are so curious and creative! It's always a joy watching your videos 😊 I liked number 25, and recently heard a good quote that aligns with this topic quite nicely: "good communicators start with the answer and work backwards from there"

[@kaylanek1]

here are mine- 1. If you want to draw, draw 2. If its past 1:00 AM, you don't need to watch another episode 3. Always carry something to do art with 4. Always carry water and a jacket 5. Buy shoes one size to big 6. Vacuum as much as you can 7. If you feel very strong about something, journal 8. Declutter every Christmas 9. Get a sunrise alarm clock 10. Wear what you like, not what others like 11. Don't wear a belt to babysit 12. Draw on mirrors in your room, it's fun 13. Make your bed every day if you can 14. Take pictures of yourself, no matter how much you hate it

[@dreenyan]

Love these! I'm ordering that damn sunrise alarm clock right now :D

[@RailtoonsAnimation]

#14 is a big one. Don't find yourself old and regretting not having more photos of when you were younger, and more importantly, of the memories and experiences you were part of

[@OhNoNoNoNoNo]

Don't wear a belt to babysit? Why? (I don't babysit often and I'm genuinely curious)

[@curiositydrawsme9180]

@@OhNoNoNoNoNo One possible answer is that when you’re watching kids (especially littles, who need/demand more attention), the extra time it takes to fasten and unfasten a belt before/after a quick trip to the restroom, might - coincidentally - be the exact amount of time it takes to paint the entire front of the television with peanut butter; or to draw all over a younger sibling, a white leather couch, and part of a wall, with permanent markers. That’s my guess.

[@OhNoNoNoNoNo]

@@curiositydrawsme9180 ah, yes, that makes sense.

[@noaneill]

"If none of this resonated with you..." The beautiful thing is that, while this was ridiculously subjective, was it? Love you.

[@loveleeluv7]

Thank You for this awesome end-of-year LIST✨! You're probably one of the very, very few of the many Australians I've come across on youtube that are genuinely generous with sharing practical and helpful authors, apps and websites, etc✨. Not to mention (but I'm mentioning anyway!), smart and insightful ideas! The other youtube "recommended" channels that have popped up based in Aus near my area (BNE) in various niches (fashion, lifestyle, art, etc) would only show, show and show what they got, where they go, what they did ~ with too much of those instrumental lazy music ~ BUT HARDLY telling the viewers where exactly did they go and from whom did they get for this and that kind of help, etc... Ahmm thanks to them for letting us waste-watch for 15minutes...anyway??? So indeed your channel is kind of unique in its presentation, generousity and creativity that you very well deserve its success and so much more. 🎉Happy birthday, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you, wish you more success bro ✨! Excellent ⚡!

[@damienjoy]

Like I never regret a swim, i never regret clicking on your videos my dear Struthless !

[@christitze]

My personal tips and hacks: 1. keep a wireless waterpik in the shower 2. when having a writers block, type with a dingbat font on. This prevents you to check what you wrote, therefore prevents writers block 3. There is no shame in mimicking and perfecting someone else's art (i learned that while learning the guitar) 4. That thing that made you happy as a teenager? keep doing it as an adult. For me it was skateboarding (now i do Eskating)

[@maxi-me]

I haven't watched the video yet but I just _know_ it's gonna be the GOAT!. I'll follow up once I have viewed it. I can hardly wait to see it! I can't even imagine what it's gonna be about but I just _know_ I'm gonna love it. I can totally see myself watching this presentation over and over; that way I can get as much as possible out of it. I got a feeling I'm gonna give it a thumbs up. If so, I'll share the link (thru US Postal Service, I don't have a social media account) maybe even subscribe to the channel. I'll have a look at the merch first, see a few things that appeal to me, load them to my cart and then (as usual) get distracted by a KZbin notification and abandon the purchase process to watch a couple of _hilarious_ chunky twenty-somethings do yet another _Charleston Shuffle_ . This will be a day to remember!

[@boyluizeduardo]

I love your animations, dude! And I've noticed the more complex ones to animate are simpler drawings, which is in itself a nice little implicit subtip on productivity.

I’m new to your channel Genuinely feel like I made a friend who cares and will always want the best for me.

[@user-lb2bb1cd7w]

Cam can you make a video about how you got yourself to start loving yourself once again? And how to stop basing our self worth on someone's validation.

[@rachelvieira8434]

Thanks for this video! I was feeling pretty bummed today after realising that my social media interactions are becoming really unhealthy and bringing me down. I decided to look for a few videos on "how to make my life better" to help me remember that I can indeed turn things around. This was the first video I found that looked like it could take me in a happier direction - I was not wrong!! You are fun, funny, and quirky ❤ keep it up, dude! You just made my day a whole lot better 🎉

[@ariverdreaming]

I feel like all of these I either have tried and deeply agreed or I had never thought about and am excited to try!

[@juditsite]

Omg you included Basque language in there! Eskerrik asko for that, as a Basque person living far from her hometown, this made me rly irrationally happy! 😂😂😍 Happy new year Cam, all the best to you and your family! ♥️🌟

Another wicked video! Hope the festive season has been awesome dude!

You made my day! Breath of fresh air every time I see a new post from your channel.

[@BobbyDoesMusic]

Just came here to say that I bought Your Head Is A Houseboat when it first came out, but in "classic me" form, I procrastinated reading it until tonight when my phone died mid-doomscroll. I honestly don't even remember if it was TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. But I had enough fortitude to say to myself, "nah, don't go plug the phone in and don't turn the TV on. Read that book you bought last year. Go on. Do it." Anyway, I just wanted to say I loved it, it'll definitely be one I'll revisit, and I can already tell it'll be a nice metaphor to carry into the new year. Thanks Cam! Catchya!

[@colleenmulrooney]

Happy birthday! Thanks for the cool tips, especially the posture one

[@dianasofia6784]
