I will watch this later

[@ingwiafraujaz3126]

I literally added this to "watch later" and will forget about it. It feels generic.

dont watch later watch immediately when you found this kind of videos i just watch this after a year on my watch list

[@derrickrr5516]

I can only watch videos that are less than 1:50 long.

[@comprehendnature2404]

The best cure to be productive has been for me eliminating all sources that provide continuous stimulation such as social media, video games and TV. Allowing myself to get bored, really bored to the point what I found boring early became my only source of stimuli. Reading and working out became easy. My memory improved, became more happy and satisfied. I started to have plenty of time instead of struggling to find time for things. In summary, allocate time to get bored. Your brain will physically change allow time to see change.

[@susannefitzpatrick9955]

In other words if you’re feeling demotivated, FORCE YOURSELF to get up and do something!! What I do is listen to my body - if I feel demotivated it’s probably ‘cos I’m worn out due to insomnia or other stresses - and I just roll with it: I stay snug in bed and read; try to sleep; watch a nice relaxing film and guess what - next day I’m fine!

[@user-qx2tu4zl7t]

All my life was always a self starter. I never needed motivation to do anything, because I always got up an did it myself. Fast foward to 12years ago, i became very very tired, no energy, and desire to do a lot. There was something not right with my thyroid. I was never the same again.

[@mohdfaizmdnordin6820]

5-10 minutes meditation ia juts like our 5 times daily prayer. It's the most effort full meditation. We have to focus 100% and at the same time make aware of our listening to the recitation during the prayer

[@furowowo]

Mashaallah brother it is true

[@user-ur5yg3cx8t]

definitely not true buddy keep your prayers separate from meditation, its completely different and if you don't understand that than this video is not for you

[@aneelakhan6245]

You won’t understand this video. Someone who doesn’t understand the fact that there is someone who created this brain and how our brain 🧠 works for us and against us. Until you find your creator you will keep chasing and you’ll never know the true meaning of yourself or anything you making sense of ir Watching this as a Muslim grows my faith stronger.

[@MyJuicyTv]

Yup! I start with the cold plunge in my pool which is the hardest 😢then I go for a run then clean the house, feels so good when you accomplish these things.

[@rueavenue]

The procrastination hack definitely worked with me in the past with language learning. Whenever I was tempted to procrastinate I switched to a harder language like Russian to change my perspective on what hard is. Also helped me realise how much progress I’d made in my target language. 💯

[@rebeccawaterhouse6252]

Great idea, thank you, guess I'll start learning Russian

[@rueavenue]

Go for it! The other language that worked for this too was Danish. 😄 - but Norwegian almost made me want to give up my native language (British English) I enjoyed it so much.

[@JM-yf3ol]

Imagine your boys gave you a new 50 page policy document to read, and you weren’t allowed to skim it. You’d think “aww man, so boring, I don’t wanna”. Now imagine your boys told you to sit facing a blank wall and you weren’t allowed to look around. Just sit in silence looking at the wall. You’d think “give me that policy document now, I need something interesting to read!”. Motivation is relative. That’s why it’s beneficial to have boring breaks, then when you get back to work you get straight into it. Yet so many people have stimulatory breaks, which means when they get back to work they’re de-motivated.

[@anbrinsalicksalick4658]

Thankyou These short talks have become part of my daily morning motivation

[@Catalystresource]

So powerful, efficient and useful as usual! Thanks Andrew for sharing so much of yourself❤

[@jessegentry9699]

Thanks for the steeps for getting me out of my slump. I feel like a powerhouse just watching this video. I am making a promise to my self and you for healing my depression.

You are welcome!

[@radharani-ke8bq]

Nice content, thank u

[@toriwolf5978]

This is one video I need ❤to hear …

[@jessegentry9699]

It's fascination that my procrastination will leave the nation after watching this presentation.

[@br8979]

If you can't do the thing you want to do, how can you then do something even harder? Doesn't make sense to me. If I could do that, I could also do the first thing... or am I missing something?

[@robertdanzig3926]

This is the video I needed today. Perfect timing

[@RespireOfficial]

Glad we could help!

[@camspks]

"the deadline makes you get it done"....works for me!

[@justgivemeanumber8215]

actually boredom is the hardest thing. in fact, do not meditate as that is something to do. do nothing. only allowed to think in full sentences about the thing that you're procrastinating on.

[@QuentinYT-]

Yep.

[@rjali9926]

Waiting for it .

[@RespireOfficial]

Thank you for watching the video live! Much appreciated.

[@deborahseaman8470]

I wonder what effect this exercise will have on a brain that doesn't produce any, or very little dopamine. I am willing to try this and see if it might create new neural pathways ❤❤

[@RespireOfficial]

That is an interesting question. I hope this method works for you!

[@deborahseaman8470]

@@purepotentialityNow Thank you, I am not quite sure what you mean but I do meditate ,believe we all have a higher conciousness that we can access, I ascribe to the teachings of Buddha Tesla,Jung ,and the 12 immutable laws of the universe. I suffer from CPTSD and have Asperger's ADD and ADHD, hence my brain is faulty in the making of the dopamine, but I am 67 and just got my correct diagnosis and everything started making sense. I know that I receive energy updates quite often and I protect my pineal gland and my third eye. If you can give me any observations, you can think of anything that might help, I am open! Blessings and joy, we are all in this together!🙏❤

[@deborahseaman8470]

@@RespireOfficial Thank you, I will try and let you know! I have Asperger's ADD and ADHD along with CPTSD. I'm 67 and was just recently correctly diagnosed. When I was told my brain probably never made dopamine, it made so much sense I laughed and cried. I have been working on my brain for 30 years!! I can't wait to try this! Blessings and joy always!🙏❤

[@ocrodger]

So this explains why I have no motivation, desire, etc. I have Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's patients lack dopamine. I take dopamine supplements which helps a little. Time to talk to my neurologist about increasing my meds.

[@thedudesmom7798]

So besides meditation? What’s 4 other examples?

[@lavoniacarole2321]

I was wondering this too. I meditate a fair amount so would like another example to understand it better.

[@tempest17703]

it really depends on the person. for me personally, it would be taking a cold shower, or vacuuming my entire apartment, or doing laundry. something that you'd typically be really lazy to do. you could go out for a jog early in the morning or tackle that stack of papers you have on your desk for work. anything you would put off.

[@lavoniacarole2321]

@@tempest17703 thank you for these suggestions. It is enlightening to what you were saying even more so.

[@bashirhussain2213]

1. Cold shower. 2. Learn something that really hard 3. memorise. 4. Go for a run

[@davidfeldmann7497]

meditation is easy for me, cold plunge, too, running, too, cleaning, too... Wouldn't know what's harder except of writing about that's even harder. any suggestions?

I’m procrastinating by wanting to watch this instead of doing my homework

[@swent45]

I would appreciate if you provided a reference or link to the original Huberman Lab podcast for those who would like more context. It's difficult trying to figure out which of the many podcasts is the relevant one.

[@carla89cc]

How do i get past the stess .. it's like a block or fear.. it makes me procrastinate with what i need to do!

[@TravelPhotoWriter]

Doc, I like your new format. The visuals that are specific, such as the peaks and troughs is useful. I also enjoyed seeing the woman's face to whom you were referring, that was a nice tribute. The other generic pics and videos I'm sure is "good" in SM these days, although they don't really do anything for me. I would rather it simply cut back to seeing you talking. Regardless, please don't stop showing us your face in a black shirt on a black background. It's become... Comforting.

[@RespireOfficial]

Thank you for the feedback!

[@PatriciaDunnet-yv1cl]

Can a SAD lamp work ?

[@pervo4119]

i didn’t get it. can it be highlighted ?

[@cmackalbright239]

This cracked me up

[@kgrace2949]

Sooooo, Im not motivated to do something, so I should force myself to do something else I don't want to do and that will make me want to do the other thing I don't want to do? Hmmmm.

[@tempest17703]

its about discipline and resilience. forcing yourself to undergo more pain and pushing through makes you stronger overall. and the tiny dopamine rush you get after accomplishing something that was even harder than the original task itself? i'd say it's worth it.

[@carla89cc]

No specific suggestions were given to help get past procrastination. Just lots of taking about it 😮

[@patriciaburlow8469]

That's what I thought too, video just a waste of time

[@WhiteHeat-yd6zm]

Is this technique age related?

[@keithchegwin1222]

Great video, English isn't my first language so sometimes I don't fully understand things. How would I feel motivated enough to do this thing, that is even harder than the thing I wasn't motivated to do in the first place? Is he saying I need to do something even harder? That kind of doesn't make sense. What am I missing?

I have to self motivate as a full time artist (create artist lifestyle Vlogs…Irene Torok Art same across my socials) and personally think having a schedule is most motivating. For me anyway. 😊

So I was trying to start a KZbin channel like your niche and also I was researching on channels as the same niche as you and how you was able to monetize your channel, I kind of figure it out, but I have one question I wonder why you started to cover the whole video with b-roll footages and it is better with both a-roll and b-roll, thank you and do you have any tips to start a KZbin channel same niche like you 🙏 🙏@@RespireOfficial
