Thank you for the response, @@ChloeCara! I'm glad I've been able to understand a bit this concept and some of the polemic about it: it is very impressive that just a few hours ago this video was one of the suggested videos for me: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqWkdn6mf9edm6s. Impressive AI. I'm not sure that KZbinrs who preach productivity every single day, are truly that far of this hustle culture. But I don't like the extreme of expecting perfection from them. A balance is necessary, but very difficult to ever achieve (if it were easy this kind of content would not even exist, and maybe not even KZbin, eventually).

So true. I took a gap year after high school and worked in a warehouse. Every morning I would rush out of my house with a smile on my face and my mom was confused why I was so happy to work in a warehouse. I looked for every aspect where warehouse jobs could be fun (great colleagues, organizing boxes, driving a forklift, getting tipped while delivering, etc.) instead of focusing on the negatives (demanding boss, unpaid extra hours, etc.). Perspective makes a world of difference.

*Productivity comes down to 2 factors internal and external* Internally: - have clear priorities - align those priorities to your values - have a strong intrinsic why (science shows this is of the main 3 things: how it benefits your personal growth, deep relationships & contribution ot community) Externally: - eliminate distractions (the more distance/barriers there is to doing what you shouldn't do the less likely you are to get distracted - sometimes all it takes is closing a door/ putting earphones in) - make the task simpler, easier & more attractive/rewarding to do

I tried the Muhammad Ali Technique twice: The first time was in 2018 and the other, when Ali was hosting a Zoom Call in February. I worked a lot, I gave it my all and it was gruelling mentally. I burst out crying one day. I did brilliantly in my exams (also because it was mostly easy) but I thought to myself: “Did I treat my body properly? Did I care to know how much I slept? Have I kept in touch with people?” This time around, I feel the same. I know I can go through that process but I choose to slow down because I want to feel alive when finishing my work or studying. Wish me luck and Ali, you are sweet, lovely, inspiring and very funny. Here’s to having more fun while being subconsciously productive.

Enjoyment is definitely the best motivator towards productivity. I actually quite enjoy exercise, I enjoy getting stronger and exerting myself, it's also a nice break. As for being stuck on one thing, I like to have two or three things so switch between so I'm never bored or stuck, and I can always procrastinate on one by doing the other.

One day I asked myself, why am I so obsessed with productivity? When really considered, it came down to a base level FEAR OF DEATH. The more productive I was, the more "life" I could supposedly live. That's when I realized it's impossible to live more life than what you have. All you can do is enjoy the life you do have, and that's why true productivity is about living each moment to its fullest.

This just feels so right to listen to! I'm in my first year of university at the moment and I've been struggling with productivity, and this video just made me think back to when I was in high school, where there were really hard moments in regards to my mental health and my struggle with certain assignments, but I really ended up learning them better when I somehow managed to get myself to enjoy it, to allow myself to learn just for the sake of learning and because of the interest of the topics we were learning, instead of focusing on trying to be the best and make my teachers proud. I need to get back to this approach to productivity, it's so important and I feel like it's quite underrated. Thanks so much and keep up the hard work!

Every time I thought about what my passion is or what I want to do in my life, I end up overthinking and stressed. I mean why should we stick to one thing what we call "passion" while we could be good at many things and still love what we're doing. You are a living example. Thanks.

Then this question occurred to me, how can I enjoy it if I'm finding it hard? The answer is, when I play some video games, at some difficult stages I find it hard but at the same time I find that very enjoying. I mean we get to enjoy during the hardship. We enjoy the difficulties. It's like, 'oh my god just ome more attack one more save aaand I won'. I hope you got it 🙂 Thank you.

I’m such a big believer in being present and in the moment, too! I am a social worker and I love what I do, but there are loads of things I have to do (paperwork, working late) that I don’t enjoy. When I do things that are considered “self care,” I have to look at the positives, stop myself from thinking of what I need to do, and just enjoy what I am doing. I find I’m more able to tackle the stressful stuff, because i am doing things I enjoy throughout the week instead of being lost in the never-ending loop of to-dos that are typically on my mind.

This is what I need. Your words, are what I needed to hear. I’ve been battling with procastination for as long as I could remember. Even doubting myself, or self diagnosing with some mental health illnesses. Because it seems I had this urge to move, but I’m stuck with not moving at all. It seems that enjoying life, is the only thing I lack. I felt stressed and pressured for some time that I’m not even doing anything.

I’m so happy that you mentioned privilege and how not everyone can just quit and do “what they’re passionate about.” That’s something people who talk about productivity always overlook. They claim they’ve “grinded” and “started from the bottom” but I can guarantee they’ve had some kind of help funding their “passion.” This was also helpful because I actually love my job and have a boss that is super compatible with my work style and amazing coworkers, but of course there are a lot of things I don’t like to do. They’re just part of the job and they have to get done. It’s easy to avoid those things and I want to learn how to be more productive/motivated in that sense. So this is super helpful and thank you for all of your content :)

Recently got hooked on your podcast. I LOVE the originality and specificity you bring to otherwise-overdone topics like this! I'd be excited to hear you expand on this theme in a podcast episode, if you think you've got enough to say about it. Thanks so much for all the quality free content you create, from this ADHD pre-med student/nonprofit entrepreneur who really benefits from your insights. :)

Food for thought! I personally procrastinate with things I either don’t want to do, or there is so much to be done. The only common connections that work, are to break everything down into manageable bits. Ticking the list helps me feel productive and actually see an end point. My focus can be all over the map, so at least I have the route marked out when I get off track. I found I need “return points” when my mind goes rambling.

I highly doubt this is some way you've thought of it before, but this reminds me a little bit about all-time great Alabama football coach Nick Saban, who is the greatest college football coach of all time and consistently fields elite teams, with anything less than finishing #1 with a championship a "bad year." He teaches his staff and his players about "the process" and puts emphasis on this instead of the "end result." Each repetition takes on a life of its own. Each full play is its own symphony, with everyone focusing on nothing more than doing their job in that specific moment at the highest level they possibly can, and just continuing to do this every single practice and every single game. I think this is a similar mindset that you've described in this video and there's definitely something to it. Watts spoke great on this subject as well

From a technical point of view, the RSI looks promising in favor of the bulls, as the daily RSI is at Bullish territory above 50 (after reversing earlier today).at the same time. The stochastic RSI oscillator is about to make bullish crossover at the over sold area. Incase this happens it might assist the market I'm reaching higher highs. Lots of Polks will do so well In the next bull market but you shouldn't be of the mindset to only hodl. Can be very dangerous.

I really agree with setting up your place to be in the mood to be productive. I had my own study/workroom and I designed the table and curtains myself to look aesthetic, that really help me to become excited working and studying each day but last month I need to move out of that room because my mom needs it as storage room. I move my working area in our dining room where it's always noisy from morning to evening. Ever since that day, it's hard for me to work and study or do anything to become productive.

At least, I was not self-doubting myself as I often do when studying. Your videos are always on point :)
