My advice is to be who you want to attract and be with people like whom you want to be. For example, for me, I want to be a better Catholic so I work on myself and go to lots of Catholic events in which everyone gathers from all over my city or my area of the city and those people usually have the same goals as I do and we connect and that's how I make friends (:

It took me a long time to recognize that my goal-oriented mindset was a huge source of unhappiness. I'd always tell myself that I'd be happy once I reached my goal and then, once I got there, it felt so empty and I'd be depressed. Systems is a good word for "the process" or "the journey". Never looked at it in that way but it's something that I'm still learning to appreciate more.

I just read Atomic Habits. The thing that stood out for me the most, and has been an absolute game changer with habit-setting is focusing on the new identity rather than the behavior. I like that Rowena is focusing on systems over goals. I always achieve goals, and then take a vacation for some reason. Implementing systems feels more long term.

You need both. And one comes before the other. 1. WHAT (destination or intent) 2. WHY (emotional motivation and drive) 3. HOW (your system or plan) Without a goal first there is no system. You don't create systems just to create random systems. Every system has a purpose/goal/destination/intention/target/desire/intended result/outcome. Your desired intent or goal comes first. Then, determine *why* you want that. Only after those first two are written down do we create a plan, system, map, task list, action list, to-do list, set of habits, check list and so on. Now, should you focus on the result, outcome, intent, or goal? *No.* Your desired intent or destination serves as a compass to reorient you on your journey. That is its main function. Refer to it as such. Should you focus entirely on the process or system? *No.* The system or process can change. In fact, it *must* change. Use this as a flexible map of options to get you to your destination. If you become hyperfocused on your system, or specific way of doing things (with exceptions, of course, for safety checklists, etc.), then we have a word for that myopic, inflexible focus: bureaucracy. Focus on your *why.* The reasons why you *want* to pursue this thing. Use your destination to orient you like a compass, use your system or plan as a flexible map to your destination, and use your compelling, emotionally-juicy reasons *why* as your rocket fuel to get you there

as someone who has struggled with depression, anxiety, and anorexia for 8 years, nearly half my life, this is what i needed. i constantly find myself getting stuck, and my solution was always to set goals. i made long lists of goals without thinking of how to accomplish them, then lost motivation immediately. i never thought to create systems. i also really struggle to care for myself, i eat only a few things a day and sleep too much, so what you said about nourishing yourself and making time really resonated with me. i'm gonna start doing exactly what you said- repeating "make time" to myself until it sticks. rowena, your videos are always so helpful as someone who struggles with mental health issues. you're so genuine, honest and non-judgmental and listening to your advice has honestly done more for me than anything my therapist has ever said. it's late and i had a rough day, so i'm going to write in my journal and then sleep, but tomorrow i'm going to start following this advice. i'll keep you updated. and thank you so much ♡ edit: ty to everyone liking and commenting, i'm doing very bad rn and kinda forgot about this but i'm gonna try again

Therefore, I’m planning to quit nursing to pursue youtube full time as there are lots of issues in our traditional health systems as these don’t align with my values. It’s a huge learning curve but I love helping people through making videos.

Writing "goals" down, especially short term, also doesn't work for me. I feel like I have achieved something by writing them down without doing anything and it makes me feel exhausted, not reaching them. However without a goal in mind, something I want to reach in mind, I feel very lost. As long as you have something to accomplish, you also have a goal. Making every single step a race, however, will just make you numb and run away all life. Keeping your house clean, for example, is not a goal, as it is never accomplished. You will always have something to clean. Doing your homework on time is not a goal, as there will be a lot more of it coming your way. So a true goal is something that can be finished.

Another way I like to think of "identifying what is essential" is "what are my values?" To do this, I asked myself questions in a journal to contemplate what I like and don't like. You guys can use anything; music, movies, books, hobbies, activities, etc. Ask what you like from each category and WHY you like them. How do they make you feel? Ask yourself what values they most reflect. When you get clear about the things and values that make you happy, you get clear about who you are. The best part is that its easier to do things once you've identified your values / what is essential to you because doing things stops being a chore or goal to be better, and more about supporting and honoring who you already are.

I love the video and the idea, but on the other hand while watching it I've been thinking: so a system is just another word for a habit and the talk about the importance of habits over goals is quite familiar; and also "a time for myself" while browsing social media is not - in my view at least - not a time for myself at all. You probably all know this book "Deep work", and that how our phones are basically machines created for stealing our focus and attention, so while talking about having a focus and enjoying the time for oneself, while being constantly in front of a screen (while cooking, eating, etc)... I don't know - was a bit ironic for me and made me a bit sceptical. Meaning: can you really develop a productive system/habit while being constantly distracted by your phone? I'm not sure, but I guess being behind our phones and screens have become more and more of a norm and this seems to incorporate habits into it... - I'm not sure about it. But, yes, I get it and I nevertheless love the idea and I really don't want to be critical. I myself am spending quite a lot fime "offline", don't have the internet turned on my phone (unless I specifically want to check something) and it seems to me that people don't notice that they're actually rather consistently distracted and not on their own probably most of the time; therefore I love the comments about being disengaged from social media! :)

"You don't rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems." This explains everything!! This video gave me such a new perspective; the reason I was failing even if I made sure to set goals every time, was because I had no system that helped me achieve those goals. I somehow thought that once you set a goal, you'll subconsciously work towards it or you'll get the motivation to work towards it! But that's not how things work!😂😂😂 Now I've made a system, in the form of a schedule (I kind of interpreted a system as a schedule, I hope I'm not wrong). I've given time to self-care, sleep, eating and chores and found that there is still time left to give to my studies (one of the reasons I didn't feel like I was achieving anything was because I felt like I had NO time for anything at all). Sometimes I don't follow the schedule completely but I still feel that my days have a bit more direction. I'm no longer waking up not knowing what I should do, then wasting time trying to choose what to do. I have a clear idea of what I'm going to do and at what time. I also feel that I've been more consistent with things, the only time I miss doing what I planned is because things came up. I feel like I'm in control of my days now more than before. Something that used to happen a lot before was that I binge-watched anime instead of studying (jUsT oNe mOrE ePiSoDe xD). Now, when I deliberately *give time* for anime, I finish up with that one episode and actually sit down to study when it's time to study. And when I give time to study, I end up doing my assignments much earlier than the deadline! I realize that even in primary and secondary school, I always set goals at the beginning of the term but in the end never achieved them. I fell into the bad habit of procrastinating on studying, making me read last minute. I also used to set a study timetable but never followed it, but I realize it's because I was setting it all wrong. I never gave time for self-care and rest, I never mapped out the time I had to do chores, so I always felt bad when I didn't achieve a full day of studying not realizing that so much more happens in the day other than just study. My goal now is to follow my schedule completely. It's such a good schedule which gives me time for everything so I really want to follow it xD. And if I follow my schedule completely, I'll end up achieving all my other goals! Wow, simple yet mind-blowing. I hope this works, no, I'm going to make it work! xD

We always set goals but never plan for what's in-between us and the goals we want to achieve, we never think of how to bridge that gap. Plus I'm still really working on this system of mine.

I think unconsciously, this is why: I was craving a system that would make my daily life happier while operating within it as opposed to pinpointing things, events or milestones to fuel me until I achieved them. Achieving something is always temporary, though important. I think what I’ve been craving has been an overhaul of my personal habits.

3:30 Over the years I found myself fixated over building good habits for the sake of building good habits to the point where I don't even remember why I'm buidling them in the first place. Is it to be more productive? So that I can squeeze in as much work in the day as I humanly can skipping meals, sleeping late and neglecting my health? Or is it so that I can work smarter when I need to, so that I can make time to fully unplug an recharge when the time comes?" I just HAD to write this down, it spoke to me!!! Thank you so much

Systems vs goals is such a helpful concept. I feel like I've been trying to put that into practice already, but hearing you put it into words makes me feel like I have a language to go about it more intentionally now. Thank you for sharing!

I noticed that watching too much videos made me so passive .. so, a thing that could help is taking notes. While watching a video there comes a rush of ideas, goals and motivations and they won't last for too long as you'll probably just scroll down to a next video and forget all about them. So taking notes whilst watching a video will make you more accountable to your ideas. And of course you should come back to those notes later and check them so you can remember that state pf motivation and energy you were in.

I love this idea. I think that goals are simply supposed to be indicators of your performance, not that you already "made it." If you set a system the right way, it will hit every single indicator (goal) continually.

This past year and a half since the pandemic started have been really difficult. I’ve lost many loved ones (conditions other than Covid) and the isolation it put me in was unbearable. I am just now trying to pick the pieces back up and build something ever stronger. I feel so grateful to be alive, to have another chance, many chances at that. For so long I wondered why nothing I tried so hard to cultivate never stuck. But it was because I was too hyper focused on the result and never realized that the growth is in the journey. I chose myself. I chose action. I chose the essential.

So, I’ve actually decided to de clutter my life by letting go of my social media habits/accounts and was looking or rather, thinking of ways to continue and further the de cluterr-rization .... then *bam* The KZbin algorithm hit me hard with recommending your video ... I watched without really knowing what I was going to watch and hear. I quickly subscribed and wrote down all the books you mentioned. I needed to hear all of the things said in your video. Thank you for posting. Im a 37yr old adult but the part where you call your mum made me tear up, idk why... i talk to my mum everyday. It was just a nice moment. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
