How to Build Habits & Execute Effortlessly

[@johnpluck]

Love the analogy of habits being like workers in your business.

[@OnePercentBetter]

Such an underrated video. Deserves 100,000+ views.

[@insaafdawood4182]

Your video sent me here :) It was well worth watching. Thanks.

[@HamzaAli-ty5us]

You two have inspired me to make videos on personal growth and leadership! Will work on the plan and work on the first video today. Stay blessed mates!

[@abdallaomar4673]

Deserves more million to me

[@thebacheafghan]

I have your last name as my first name..interesting

[@ashfaqgul]

I feel the same for Nathan great work for all videos not only this.

[@mariebiancuzzo6423]

Totally, totally outstanding! For years, I've read and listened to tons of stuff on habits, and this is the first thing that ever really made some sense to me. Well-thought out, easy-to-understand content, meaningful analogies, compelling content with everything from Aristotle to contemporary peer-reviewed research studies, perfectly narrated and beautifully animated. I am totally BLOWN away! (And I knew some of the stuff you said, but the presentation was just soooooooo outstanding that I listened several times.)

[@ProductivityGame]

Thank you for the wonderful feedback Marie! Happy to hear you enjoy the video!

[@knucleballfreedom]

Agreed. Well done. I have not seen the 1 page pdf yet, as a visual guy, the graphs helped me a ton

[@nicestuff8755]

PURE Gold, WOOOOOOOOW. I've seen maybe 1000 hrs on personal development videos I can can say this is a Top 10 so far. Great Value. Thanks

[@PracticalPsychologyTips]

Awesome! I am really interested in the psychology of habits and how they develop our lives. The compound effect is also an awesome concept

[@airborne486]

Could you elaborate on that for me please?

[@happynaturalist1793]

This video is excellent not only because of the content, but because it is the best use of animation in any self-help video I’ve seen. Well done, and thank you for sharing.

[@hernanperez912]

I'm now getting into the habit to listen and apply one of your videos everyday. Keep up the good work

[@knowledgefinder1]

That's what I was thinking right now. Reminder getting saved in my Outlook!

[@andrewlopez4595]

Such an underrated video. This one should be sticked to KZbin's homepage. It's that good.

[@jackbrady9738]

literally the best video of these types of videos ive seen.

[@EstrellaVirginia]

just your best video: your own material!!! Congrats

[@peekaygaikwad4117]

This is by far the best video on how to effectively build and executive a productive and life changing habit.👌👍 Thanks a ton.

[@Prim3Pursuits]

After watching this video I realize that I really need to develop a habit of writing more as well. Great video man!

[@zanette8585]

This is one of the best pieces of information on habit building that I have ever come across. Thank you, I wish more people would find this video. Truly unlimited potential can come from the application of this knowledge

[@joanl.7543]

You might be interested in my comment about what sorts of goals are potentially reachable by almost anyone, and which ones are only going to be attained by a few because of the nature of the goal.

[@4movecheckmate]

Wow, really good. Short and powerful. Habits are like factory workers. Hire 1 at a time Make it stupid small Write down an explicit behavior statement including when, where, and what Don't miss 2 days in a row Set the stakes (double chance of success if money is on the line) Be slow to trust - average of 66 days required for a habit to feel automatic. When it's automatic, you can promote it. 50 words a day becomes 100 and so on. This is also when you can "hire" another habit.

[@joanl.7543]

The advice to keep habits small and easy is excellent. I would suggest adopting as many as you need to keep life running smoothly. It's great, theoretically, to adopt only one good habit at a time, but if a number of habits are important to well-being, then that's how many you need to adopt. The good news would be most of us do what we need to get by, so making what we're doing anyway into a regular habit that we do ahead of time is not hard at all. I keep a repeating list. I'd distinguish between goals that everyone can reach (paying bills on time, healthy eating, tidiness) and those that only a few can reach by definition (being a celebrity or at the top of any field). It's trendy to suppose that getting to the top is a mechanical thing, but that is clearly not the case since only a few have done it out of many thousands of very disciplined, intelligent people who have tried.

[@MT-fl1eb]

I started using the Fabulous app which mimics this and sets reminders. I didn't think much at first but I've noticed the difference over the past week

[@nachiketmr9944]

I have seen quite a few self help videos this videos of definitely one of the best.

[@f.h.6916]

I found this channel today and I've already watched half of the videos, thanks for the great videos

[@CliffordFajardo]

One of the most beautiful analogies for habits I've heard & seen. I think simply reading this analogy wouldn't have had the same impact as seeing this analogy brought to life. I've been watching your videos for years @productivity game. You truly are amazing by bringing books to life

[@pruthvirajsinhm.jadeja4730]

True

[@tsaldan]

Awesome work, putting this together...I've watched, and rewatched it...and shared. I look forward to more of your insights...basically on getting the most out of all these fabulous books.

[@ProductivityGame]

Thanks tsaldan!

[@silverfir1069]

Awesome video, i was already sold on this after 2 minutes of watching. This is a very creative way of explaining how to build a new habit that one wants to adopt.

[@Rosannasfriend]

I'm going to try this. Thank you so much for this great advice. I'm going to watch the video over and over.

[@RafaeLonga]

You´ve upgraded yourself with this new approach. . . I like the visuals, the content, the pill-like dosage of your teaching. . . congratulations!

[@evgeniam8882]

I discovered your channel recently and it's totally insightful. Your video, your presentation & 1-page PDF summary is outstanding and so helpful compared to other theoretical-endless hours of self-development channels. Your content is admirably cumulative, insiring and practical and can help motivate people in a very realistic model and the outcome is life-changing. I'm feeling lucky to sub and get notified of your videos. Thank you and please keep it up!!

[@barshaghi]

Well made video. Thank you for explaining it into simple format and words. Watching your videos is my new habit now ! ❤️

[@austinburnett2129]

I love this analogy. Great video! Thank you for sharing!

I agree with below comment- very underrated video. Like idea of hiring a habit. Very helpful info-especially stats about missing one day vs 2 days.

No workers were harmed during the making of this video.

[@janaa57]

Wonderful video .

[@devinroy799]

Brilliant insight, application, and summary. My biggest take away is the two days in a row thing. Reminds me of John Lee Dumas' "The 100 Day Goal Journal" when it got to the part about writing down your goals. On the topic of accountability, have you ever considered being a part of a mastermind group?

[@ramanarc]

Great point about thinking of habits as production workers :)

[@DrSmitaChakote]

Thank you..your videos have helped me lot .god bless u

[@MrNickmi]

This is brilliant! Lots of very useful info, beautifully presented. However, what I like best is the STUDIES - the way these animations bring the studies to life so the ideas are easier to assimilate. Unfortunately, many other animation channels just give personal impressions or a reformulation of some ideas from books but without the supporting evidence.... Not nearly as convincing... So - congratulations and keep up the good work! :-)

[@jasonpham6422]

The core message: Successful people turn vital productive behaviors to daily habits and make them efforless to execute. And, consistency is everything. How 1. Only hire 1 habit at a time (make sure the habit is worth investing) 2. Never fail to execute the habit more than 2 days in a row 3. Make the habit's behaviors tiny , seemingly effortless 4. Keep yourself accountable by putting money on the line etc... 5. After you show up daily and perform the habits automatically, only then when you give yourself more responsibilities with the new habits

[@irenentoutoumou901]

Love this video Nathan. Pretty much all you need. Do you have reference(s) for the Habit Retention Rate numbers around days missed?

[@styzoom]

Very nice animation, thank you.

[@amospan14]

Awesome content man, keep it up brother

[@fredschmitt456]

If you watch this video a second time, but this time replace "habit" with "Hobbit", you won't stop laughing!

[@shredtabulous]

process to build new habits 1. build only one habit at a time. 2-3 months on the easiest possible version of each habit. 2. make it super easy. e.g. read 1 minute per day 3. write down explicit statement. e.g. I will read for 1 minute every night when I first get into my bed 4. create consequences if you don't do it. e.g. bet $100 bucks you can do it. 5. do not miss 2 days in a row. # 2, 3 & 4 are designed so you won't miss days. science is clear: it doesn't matter how easy, just that you actually do it 6. only after the habit is automatic (doesn't take will power. you feel and urge to do it) can you add to it or start another habit. e.g. after 90 days daily reading habit increases to 5 minutes and start meditation habit for 1 minute every morning

[@rickc5566]

Best channel ever.!

[@Meraked]

Very well said. However, how would you implement this into something like a diet?

[@imakemusique]

When do we add another habit, after the habit has become effortless (A few weeks)? And will it be too much to add another habit while increasing the magnitude of the first habit (say increasing reading from 1 to 5 pages)? Awesome video, so clear and concise!

[@jasonrlewis12]

Amazing video thank you

Also, can you make a video, about how we loose habits? I used to have some great ones, did everything efficently, but now im back to page 1 with depression through my bones. :(

[@dohnandkalistar6345]

It starts by making little slacks and permitting them. One day at a time you loose it all.

[@talithaamalia3402]

I just came across your video. Thanks for the summary, it's well explained. However, you probably misattributed this quote “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” It was never recorded that Aristotle's said that, rather it was Will Durant who wrote it in The Story of Philosophy... (1926) when trying to discuss Aristotle's quote that says “these virtues are formed in man by his doing the actions” in his Nicomachean Ethics. I hope my first comment on KZbin help. :)

[@bevisionary3184]

Loved it. ❤️❤️

[@kicik5038]

This is great! But which book is this from? Cos you usually summarize books

[@witcher7014]

From which book is this idea from by the way great video

[@raeese7250]

wow thanks this is great advices

[@Will-qv6es]

So when do you upgrade your habit? Do you wait for the full 66 days before doing something that requires a bit more effort?

[@knucleballfreedom]

Will Jenks great question

[@jankyyard5610]

You won't notice it will upgrade as long as your consistent on doing it

[@joanl.7543]

I'd let your personal well-being be your guide. If a habit is important, then you need to do it as much as you need to do it to get the benefit.

[@wyattfelling]

Will Jenks You will probably realize when it is time to promote or upgrade them. It will be when a habit has become almost second nature

Hi Javidaiyub, I read for at least an hour a day at various times throughout the day. I find it handy to have an ebook app on my phone so I can read whenever there is some downtime.
