Something Is Better Than Nothing

Life can be tough and overwhelming so just remember that doing something is better than nothing. Be proud of yourself when you're able to do that something!

[@Pailers]

As someone with a chronic illness, anxiety and depression, I can concur that 'something is better than nothing' is great advice and a great plan. Things can get so overwhelming that you can't do anything. Just try and do something. Great video, John.

[@beckyolesen1919]

Can't stress enough how important this is especially with any mental illness. Even if all it is that you do that day, is brush your teeth, it's still better than nothing. Don't want to take a full shower? Just wash your hair under the faucet, or sink. Or even just rinse your face off. It will make you feel better. These little things will add up to help make you feel better. Even if it's just one a day. I too deal with depression and during covid it got worse, not only from work being more stressful but because of not being able to see people. So I really got to see the benefits of doing something is better than nothing once I realized how bad I was getting.

[@ryanmacdougall4651]

As a doctor I remember residency well. And watching my wife I know the toll it takes on partners. Good luck to both of you.

[@SirLiamothy]

John has always been a possible role model so thanks for opening up to us. It really humanizes creators when they open up because they always seem so positive, we will always support you man. Thanks for all the great videos

[@meldarion]

As the person who left the comment, I'm very grateful for this video; as much as you may feel your thoughts are a bit disorganised, they help. Thank you.

[@SW_bread]

Over the Past couple months I've started to come to this channel to calm down Thanks THE JOHN GUY

[@xenowolf7285]

Its fine john! Everyone hits a moment that causes them to just, not want to do anything/be unable to do anything. Whether its something bad, good, or somewhere inbetween differs between everyone. If you need time to get back into the swing of things, for ANY reason, you take your time. We'll be here waiting for however long it takes. You amd your fiance just do your best.

[@ParisEffing21]

i think ive needed someone to tell me for a long time that something is better than nothing. i feel like something is better than nothing is something that will help me alot. im so happy about this video and and every other video youve posted, thank you

[@ZancralthePariah]

I can’t speak for everyone, but something that has helped me mentally is coming to terms with the fact that “I am the one who gets to decide how today was” and with that I have decided that “today is going to be/will be/is/has been a good day because I said it is”. There is always something in the day that can be good, so don’t let the bad stick around longer than necessary

[@arcturus4853]

It's nice to hear that you're thinking about what you CAN do and not what you SHOULD do. Best of luck to you John, I'm sure things are turning for the better

[@SaxophoneSeal]

As someone who has taken on a lot of projects recently and feels they the progress they made isn’t good enough, this is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you John ❤

[@hollywalker3726]

I will say the same thing to you as I said when Mikey went on his sabbatical last year. You do you. I will be here for each and every video you make whether they're just days apart or months apart. You are one of my favorite Poketubers and the wait is worth it to me. You have a huge family here and we probably would sit here and listen to you read one of your fiancee's textbooks.

[@-en_x3]

I would literally listen to that.

[@hollywalker3726]

#Johngoestomedicalschool

[@JLSaggs9]

The crazy thing is is that this is so very true. No matter what video it is John, its always going to make me laugh, not because you made the funniest joke, just because you in general are funny. I love your videos and you are my favorite poketuber. I will never stop loving your videos. and also, #john_is_a_fire_name

[@prommien]

This message was something I needed. I have a really bad habit of stressing myself out, and to "alleviate" the stress I put more and more on my plate. "Something is better than nothing" I think is something I need to adopt a bit more. Do a little bit of one of my projects each day. Work a little bit on the things that I know need to be done. Do a couple things that will make me feel like I've made a bit of progress (doing some cleaning, going for a walk, etc). I have always enjoyed your videos. The silly, the energetic, and these little commentary videos are extremely refreshing. Keep doing you. :) Because every little piece we get to see is awesome.

[@BerryNerdCorner]

I really appreciate this video, dude! I've been in a very similar boat. In the last 18 months, I have: bought a house, gotten married, started a KZbin channel, grown that channel to over 1300 subs, and had twins. All while working full-time outside the home. I've had to slow down my workflow lately, which sucks and isn't helping me reach my goals as quickly as I would like. But, as you said, something is better than nothing. I'm doing my best to get out one video a month (I managed bi-weekly releases for a while) and planning for a couple bigger projects this year and next. Keep doing what you're doing, man! You're easily one of my favorite PokeTubers, and I'll be eagerly waiting for your next release!

[@alhernandez2246]

This resonates with me so much I have depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, etc. and I’m still in middle school, I found you as PM7 at a low point in my life and your content helped me but my grades still suffered because I couldn’t get the assignment done because I was so stressed but this video is what I’m gonna apply to school from now on so thank you John

[@joshmiller3521]

Perfect video. Honestly and truly. I suffer from depression and anxiety, which makes it hard to truly appreciate the positive things that have happened in the recent months or years. Your one of my favorite poketubers, your wholesome content, funny use of vernacular and of course the absolutely insane shiny luck. Youve got this man, you can do this

[@Merp998]

My dad's a surgeon, and i still remember when he was in residency. It takes so much time. We hardly ever saw him. Its incredible what you and your fiance have been able to accomplish.

[@ShiaraMoon]

As someone who has been struggling to be more physically active, the "10 minute walk" bit really spoke to me. Thank you

[@concepthazard6933]

John, I love your attitude on life. As human beings, none of us are going to have perfect lives. I, myself have been through a lot of rough times over the past year and this video hit me hard, in a good way. I wish more people could come out and be that voice people need to hear, like you just did. Keep the positivity and keep up your great work!!!

[@shadowsneak8663]

I can't stress enough how much i support you john i have been a fan for years now and i love seeing how far you have come

[@sarahandah9045]

The “leaving the house” thing really hit me. I’m a new mom who works part time from home, so I don’t have a work place and of course socializing has become a lot more difficult now that we’ve got the baby to consider. I’ve been trying to push myself to leave the house with the baby for at least something every day, whether that’s running an errand, grabbing lunch somewhere, or going outside. Walks have been insanely helpful for me - there’s something wonderful about getting fresh air. Thank you for sharing all of this and I hope you have a great summer

[@bradenwardle8402]

I wish I could properly convey how impactful and important this video was to me with where I am in life right now. You are a gem, please believe me when I say these words really are changing lives. Thank you for being you.

[@GingerIntrovert]

I really appreciate this message. It's something I need to learn as well. I try to rephrase my thoughts "I am having a hard time" rather than "I'm failing", and that makes it easier to have compassion for myself, because everyone who's struggling deserves compassion.

[@HVACAdventures]

Thank you for sharing this, I'm turning 20 in July and I've been in a really deep tough spot in life at the moment and this has given me ideas for a better chance and opportunities. I'm currently enrolled in college and I've been placed in an accelerated semester so I'm having to do 2-3 weeks worth of work in one and I find it difficult to keep the time organized and not overworking myself but you've made me realize that I don't have to be perfect as long as I understand what I'm studying and learn from the mistakes that the teacher points up. Thank you again for sharing this and encouraging me, bless your friends and family, and bless you!

[@simonwindler9575]

These videos always help me so much; I love watching them!

[@BenjaminRydersNest]

Hey John, thank you for making this video. Really, I appreciate this so much. The concept of "something is better than nothing" has really stuck with me ever since I first watched this video, and I realized it's a good way to go about life. "Not every day is going to be great. Most days aren't. Some days are fantastic. But at the end of the day, you can say you did something, which is better than having done nothing at all." That may not be exactly how you said it, but that's how I go about things now. It's really changed how I view life, and made me realize I don't always have to be so hard on myself. Thank you, John, truly.

[@rubirawrs]

Thank you John, you are right. I hope you are kind to yourselves each day. You can't win every battle but you can get back up.

[@cydneyking7453]

Something is better than nothing is advice a therapist gave me a year ago and it literally changed my life. Over the pandemic I ended up doing exactly what you described so bad that I had such horrible imposter syndrome that I couldn’t do anything. Couldn’t do college work, couldn’t interact with people, couldn’t act (im a longtime performer), nothing. That on top of a new ptsd diagnoses had me fully believing that if I didn’t do the best there was no point. And guess what? I never felt that anything I did was good enough to be considered the best. But when you just do *something*, it just totally kills that paralysis.

[@intoontown]

I feel like "something is better than nothing" is one if the most import things to take to heart. And one of the hardest to, as well. Honestly I needed this reminder today and can't wait to share it with my partner when they're home. Rooting for you, John, keep on being you.

[@CowardlyShep]

You are consistently such a sweetheart, John. I appreciate the honesty and the support and I hope that things get just a little bit better in the future. Because a little better is still something, right? It's better than nothing! 💜

[@CrystalEN7]

There was a saying at my physiotherapist: you have to walk for half an hour each day, but if you're busy you need to walk for 2 hours. That means that you really need to get some time for yourself. If you're busy all the time, you spend so much energy that you don't have some for yourself or even your family. It's good to take a break and just do fun things or nothing at all. It's a hard knock life, but if you find the right balance you can do so many more. Hang in tight. You can do it!! We all love you and you're not alone in this.

[@loganmarek1884]

Swing and night shift are absolutely brutal, I can't imagine doing that 7 days a week. Just 4 days from 5pm to 3:30am kicks my ass. Mad respect to her for doing it

[@lazy6565]

hi john. as someone who desperately needs a break, this video is very helpful to refer to, and i thank you for making it. just remember that all of us are here to support you when you need a break.

[@kevindailey5273]

This is seriously one of your best vids yet man! And I wholeheartedly agree with you on not pushing yourself too hard to be perfect. You have to do what you can and don't beat yourself up if you can't do everything you wanted to. Its alright to not overstress yourself. Take your time and do what you can when you can.

[@charlie727harvey]

I completely relate to this, as someone with anxiety and who is a chronic procrastinator I’m the same, I get into a habit and then as soon as I miss a workout or don’t shower on the day I normally do I’ll fall completely off the wagon and just sit in my room watching KZbin for hours on end getting increasingly angry at myself for not doing something useful, but I just don’t want to. I also work in retail which is pretty much different hours everyday and 2 days off a week but they are never together, I also work Sundays so I never really feel like I get a proper weekend, then when I come home after as little as a 4 hour shift which to my family and friends if nothing I feel mentally exhausted, having to be social, helpful always happy even for 4 hours straight is hard especially when your not normally a social person, plus people treat you like shit all day and you just have to take it and be polite even when they aren’t to you. The thing I’ve found that helps my brain is basically bribery ( i don’t know if it’s technically healthy but it seems to work for me 😅) I tell myself if I do my workout or have a shower, go for a walk etc i get something in return, like get to play the sims 4 that night before bed, or get to open a pack of Pokémon cards. I feel like we are all expected to do so much in a day but sometimes I just want to come home from work a 2pm and go to bed cause I have no motivation left, why can’t we normalise just doing nothing and not feel guilty about it.

[@CharCharPlays]

I’m not gonna lie John watching your videos has given me the confidence to fight for my life.

[@ParisEffing21]

same honestly these videos just give me a reason to live :P

[@richardjunokas1470]

First time commenting on any YT video but this has resonated with me so much. I too have felt very stressed, stretched and disappointed with how things are going lately but am trying to take a more optimistic approach. Hearing this from you is so reaffirming, there feels so many similarities (partner also working in healthcare for example) so thank you and hopefully we both keep making progress ✌️💙

[@Corbin_Rambles]

I've watched this video 3 times now because this is honestly exactly what I needed to hear today and in-grain in myself as well. Thank you for your content, both your fun Pokemon content and this wholesome, down to Earth life stuff

[@sahilverma2810]

You have created a really peaceful place, John. I hope that things only get better for you and all of us. Take it easy and take care of yourself ❤❤❤

[@CaptainWolffi]

I will remember "something is better than nothing". I have recently been diagnosed with autism, and some days I won't be able to do much. So I have to be nice to myself and take care of myself. That will be my "something" those days. Then cooking and cleaning will have to wait for when I have more energy. It really is a great philosophy for anyone. Some days going outside is big for some people while just getting out of bed is that for others that day. I think, the important thing is to feel yourself out and accept where you are that day

[@eastomations]

John is the best poketuber. Truly just a happy guy who doesn't need drama in his life. More than earned a subscription

[@DukeDarkshadow]

I've been battling with severe depression and anxiety for 20 years now and have struggled so many times just to keep myself around. I put myself down all the time feeling completely worthless and a lot of the time I think to myself what's even the point of going on if nothing's ever going to change. And then we follow all these people on social media and streaming platforms such as yourself and you all seem to be beyond happy and living the dream job of content creation where you have hundreds of thousands of followers. And I think to myself "Why can't I be happy like that and enjoy what I do?" But then you make a video like this reminding us that content creators are just as human as the rest of us. You have the same stress, struggles, anxiety, and depression as the rest of us. And it reminds us that we aren't alone. "Something is better than nothing" is exactly what I need to keep telling myself in my day-to-day life. Thanks so much for the video John. I think the decision to make a new channel for these kind of self-help videos is a brilliant one. Content creators hold a ton of power and it's so rewarding to see that you're using that power to give back to your audience in a way that means a lot to us on a personal level. It's like a quick therapy session.

[@theblackicetiger533]

Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. Thanks for sharing, John. All the love to you!

[@rickycaron3677]

Dude gave a wonderful inspirational speech and still won a round of fall guys in the background, amazing. In all honesty John, hearing your struggles and seeing that absolutely everyone has the same existential questions/worries makes me feel like no one is truly alone we are only as alone as we're unwilling to share with others. Solid video, keep making them, they brighten my week.

[@sunsoul7314]

This reminds me of a Bluey episode. The child was sad and crying. The mom explained that you are allowed to cry, and then you can stand up and come back stronger (something like that). The daughter said that she felt like she could only cry at the moment, and the mother, again, said that that's perfectly fine and she should do that for as long as she felt she needed to. It's so important to take time and figure out what works best for yourself and not let the pressure of some of the people around you get to you. And I don't mean that they necessarily pressure you, but seeing how fast they work, how much they can do... don't compare yourself. Figure out your own pace. People work differently. That's perfectly fine.

[@EVN_Aspen]

I feel you ❤ it happens to all of us! ❤your not alone 🥺 John I’m here for you forever

[@Mariospet]

Hearing this reminded me of the old saying. Slow and steady wins the race. I think the race is what we all feel life is. We have to get things done as fast as possible. Is it worth it if we are worn out and still feel like we didn’t do it “right”. I have been struggling with weight and keep saying. “I’m going to loose this much in this amount of time” and don’t end up doing it. I am now trying to change or redirect that mind set and say “ Hey look you went out for a walk good job. You did a little more then yesterday, that is progress.” Negative and what we think the world or other expect of us….hurts us more then we like to admit internally. Congratulate yourself on getting up, on just taking the time to look up from your phone and just notice the colors around you. Looking out the window at work, school or anywhere and just watch the wind or birds fly by. Hopefully will remind someone that there are difference paces in the world, and there is nothing wrong with taking a breath now and again.

[@joshuakennard1473]

As someone with a lot of anxiety and some depression, ( and ADHD). I’ve learned that I sometimes you gotta do what you can when you can. Did you pick up a few things? Load the dish washer ? GOOD!!

[@talesoftableiii1584]

Hearing this is super helpful. I definitely struggle with trying to min max life, getting frustrated and just wasting my time doing nothing. Hearing that it's okay and that it's okay that I can't fix it all at once is really comforting. Thanks as always, much love!

[@SwagMikeOut]

Sorry to hear how tough the last couple years have been for you guys, but I'm glad things are looking up for you John. You and your fiance are killing it

[@elscherix3099]

This is a mentality I really need to try to hold on to more. I am a chronic perfectionist, have anxiety and ADHD, and have struggled my entire life with the feeling that my best is not good enough because it isn't literally perfect. I write and am trying to get a book of poems and short stories out there and it's just not realistic to expect to write "perfect" stories and poems since perfection is so subjective. My boyfriend preaches this mentality all the time and, while I still struggle to accept the something, I do feel like practice is making perfect (ironic). Thank you, John, for the reminder that it is okay not be be perfect 🐸

[@SebastianToddIII]

My wife is an RN working nights while I work days. I relate so much to this. I just got into a good workout routine and may have torn my rotator cuff.

[@michaelinloes776]

This was absolutely wonderful to listen to as a person who struggled with the same mentality. I am a firm believer now in somethings better than nothing. Thanks for sharing John. This really meant a lot to me.

[@bandersnatchbeauty9692]

I only leave the house to go to work at this point. I was off today, and I had planned to just do something, anything. My home is disgusting. Just everything is piling up. I wanted to start small, but I have only slept today, for hours at a time. I got nothing done. I'm out of clean dishes, clean clothes, my food in my fridge is bad, the animals are messy and destructive. And I just sleep. Don't exercise, haven't taken my medications, can't even find them in this trash palace. Every day gets worse. I wish I could get into the groove of doing just something... But I keep sleeping through it all. I'm glad that John is on the up and up, and I hope I can get there at some point.

[@ThirtyDimensionedMissile]

I agree that something is way better than nothing

Thanks John, this video was super helpful. I started watching you when i started my freshman year of highschool, and now I graduate in a few days. Your videos, streams, and overall positivity have gotten me through so much of it, thank you

I received the news today that I lost my job. It was my dream job and I'm devastated. Instead of sitting around being sad I came to my new house that I'm working on and I'm deciding to put that energy into something that is going to make me happy. John I really appreciate you using this platform and your following to spread this message and let everyone know that something, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem to others, is better than nothing at all.

[@Janine-zg6pi]

When you were talking about your meal "routine" it reminded me of mine. No time plan meals or shop for food and no desire to cook once it came down to it. My husband and I gave a meal subscription service a try and it has been a game changer for eating healthier. No having to make a meal plans, its already done for you and no shopping. It does usually take me longer to cook than the instructions tell me it should but that's a me issue.

[@shinycatt]

The instant i saw this video i already knew that it was something i needed to watch immediately. i’ve been struggling with pretty much everything lately, finances, mental health, work, social life, and i’ve been so stressed that it’s taking me everything to not check myself into the hospital for it. but i’ve been trying to treat myself better but it’s been so hard to do. Thank you for sharing your story, John. It really moved me so much (to the point where i’m sitting here sobbing as i write this) to realize how you were feeling in a some what similar way to me and you’re working through it, that just lets me know that i can too. Thank you so much

[@bakuiel1901]

As someone with OCD and a busy schedule I appreciate this video and got to try to do something rather than nothing more often. Thank you.

[@EthanW56]

Praying for you John. Your many subscribers appreciate you

[@skelebeee]

Truly this is one of those concepts that I've had to adopt as well, something is better than nothing. I've always been the person that if I couldn't figure out an assignment, I just wouldn't turn it in, so I got 0s for those rather than a something percentage for at least trying. As an adult, breaking things down and allowing myself to not be perfect and make things manageable instead of perfect has been a big improvement. Specifically, im moving soon so packing is a pain. I want to make everything perfectly organized and labeled so its easier to find things when unpacking. The trouble with that mentality is that its a lot of work, so I push it aside because I don't want to do it. I finally had to just say "okay we'll put things in 3 basic piles: keep, donate, trash (with a slight 4th pile of maybes) and sort from there" because its something, its not how I want to go about it but it works better than not starting at all. Allowing myself to make those little steps when im struggling to just stop and tell myself it doesnt have to be perfect just go for it, jump head first and see where it goesI appreciate you being honest and open about your struggles because it really just shows, like you said at the beginning from that comment, its important for people to know they arent alone in their struggles with things

[@kirstenforbes8159]

Thanks for sharing. That is good advice. I did a very similar thing when I lost 15kg. I find I tend to make excuses for little things like I don't have the right pants to go for a work in, or I have got a towel when I go for a swim. So I just started saying GO ANYWAY. you may not go as long but as you have said something is better than nothing. It helps you to build your new habits and find what works for you.

[@elo_x4266]

wonderful video. And please do not stress yourself too much with this channel. When you have an idea what you wanna talk about, you can do that, but we all understand that this is a channel, where it is about you, and you feeling safe and good.

[@BLikePeppa]

It's okay John. We all that have been here long enough can understand that sometimes, every person, all 8 billion. Everyone needs a break.

[@serenityvalfore5785]

I'm glad you are starting to feel better. I understand the being too hard on yourself and stretching yourself too thin. I really needed this video today, to hear everything you just said. If it means anything, it helped me a lot and reminded myself to be kinder to myself than I have been the lately. I think "something is better than nothing" is going to become my new motto moving forward to deal with life's difficulties and my depression/anxiety.

[@Dempea]

not to be sappy but legit John thank you for this. You have crept up to not only be my favorite KZbinr but also a human I very much respect online. This video hit hard and I will take a lot of your words to heart and think about them. Thank you.

Just keep at it, vid by vid, your building something that is your own. And one more thing, my wife is a doctor as well, 12 hour shift sounds exhausting, but it could have been worse, in Israel, they do 26 hour shift (no joke), so remember, even when it's get tough, there are people going through something even tougher and they are not tougher then you.
