You come to realize music is a mental/emotional distraction more than anything. Delayed gratification will give lasting satisfaction.

[@WheelsOfFreedom167]

A good balance is only listen to it in the morning while you’re getting ready and at the gym, no more, not even your car

[@Forever_Thatter]

Music is my passion and has saved my life multiple times. Ain't gonna happen. Taking a break from music, sure. Give your ears a bit of a rest, especially if you're very picky and you have very few favorite artists...it will help you appreciate them more.

[@lukebrunclik]

Music is everyone’s passion. There’s not a person who doesn’t like it or hasn’t benefited from it. It becomes a problem when moderation isn’t implemented

[@Forever_Thatter]

@@lukebrunclik not everyone's. KSI. I rest my case 🤣

[@flmct]

I think his point is not to have your earbuds in at any given moment, you’ll be more present, and you’ll appreciate music a lot more when you do listen to it

[@Forever_Thatter]

@@flmct the only time I've got my earbuds on is when I'm actively working on music or playing a game. I stopped taking them with me while running errands because I realized I enjoyed more the sounds of everyday life around me. there's a thing called "aural overload" and it's exacerbated by constantly consuming artificial content.

[@flmct]

Hey, gonna say this. You have got some gold stuff. Keep doing this man

[@lukebrunclik]

Really appreciate it man ⚔️

[@criwery]

Listening music mindlessly daily is equally bad as mindlessly scrolling IG. It's all about the dopamine yk. It's one of the extreme state a person could actually get but we're not ready for the discussion ngl. When something is available everyday, if really loses its essence. The less often it's in your routine the more you appreciate when you listen to it.

[@criwery]

This video actually gives a reality check which tells how we all are so bored of our own presence & silence We need constant dopamine in literally some form to make us feel high & happy. And how all of this is ruining our lives.

[@FF-wl1oo]

Hey Lukáš Brunclík, that's some great advice. I did the same for warm water, I only do cold showers, and for electricity. You know, these comforts of life really raise your dopamine and you gotta cut that thing! Keep it up!

[@lukebrunclik]

Appreciate it man, you keep it up as well ⚔️

[@thecollective2404]

glad someone said it!

[@SiratSkywalker]

This just came up on my feed, and whilst I don't think I'm addicted to listening to music, I definitely listen to it a lot. This is definitely something most of us need to follow, so props to you for making it and I hope more people follow up on decreasing their music/dopamine intake! Keep up the videos bro!

[@lukebrunclik]

Appreciate it man! Keep grinding ⚔️

[@mahive6]

last night whilst i was journaling i found out that i might be emotionally dependent on music and its really messing with my sleep too. this video is really a sign from god, thank you so much man, it really helped me a lot.

[@MarieYah]

I totally understand where you're coming from, but I think replacing the music you listen to can also make a big difference. I love classical or peaceful music for the background, good message music for driving, stress relieving every few weeks.

[@HaydenTodhunter-j4q]

Bro u post all these videos and talk all this real shit and I believe that u will become that Man U want and if ppl acc listen to key info like this and they will go far

[@Roshni-h5y]

Thats true as a Hindu we told to do God name Chanting or matras thats the real power.

[@Madiiiiiiiii316]

I notice listening to music during school my brain switches to relaxed fun time instead of focused on class and schoolwork so listening to music while all the work is done sounds cool

[@witchmorrow]

I'd add that it's not just music but it's any kind of constant distraction - podcasts, putting a youtube video on while cooking or cleaning - if you can wean yourself off needing to have something on at all times, it's like a superpower. You don't realize how much it's dragging down your concentration and attention until you force yourself to quit it and only 'use' it sparingly, with intention

[@lukebrunclik]

Exactly. So many people get caught into the trap of thinking they’re being productive by listening to “value” when in reality they’re ruining their mindfulness.

[@KokoroCast]

I usually never comment on KZbin videos. But Luke my friend, you have yourself some great content and deserve more subscribers. Thanks for helping me realize stuff about daily life. 🙏

[@jordandavis3867]

I understand what you're trying to say and I realize this video is for a specific audience. I listen to music everyday and It helps me to think deeper about my life and the people and things in my life. It helps me reminisce , it helps me think about situations and stimulates my imagination. When I'm frustrated music helps me to sit with my feelings like a form of therapy....BUT I also like sitting in silence sometimes and the peace and quiet is relaxing for me as well. Life is about BALANCE. Being extreme in one way or the other even if you think that going to that extreme is going to help improve your life is not healthy because it trains you to deny yourself pleasures and punish yourself for the sake improvement when in reality all you need is some damn DISCIPLINE.

[@god-agressivevirus]

as someone who's brain basically got burned form listening music all day long for 2 years or so, I can confirm music has such a big and devistating effect

[@god-agressivevirus]

Also 4:20 man I just remembered music actually hit different back then, now its just the "scrolling" "music" "wanking" all this stuff that ruins someone. Its either One Day or Day 1, lets make it count

Nice to see people finding out about this, Alhamdulillah as a muslim I never listen to music (music is haram in Islam), but yeah great advice man keep the work going. May God’s Guidance be upon you!

[@lukebrunclik]

Appreciate it man, although I’m not Muslim I respect all of ya⚔️

[@bplovelove3119]

Yes music can be more of a distraction than being helpful. There’s nothing wrong with using music at the gym or waiting at the bus stop because those places do not require concentration. But driving a car does require concentration and reading and dissecting information of a textbook requires more and more concentration.

[@IMBlessed-d9o]

5:09 That's facts

[@Freed98]

People just come up with the ways to torture yourself and then call it self improvement. Just because you enjoy something doesn’t mean you gotta rip it out of your life.

[@artemisx604]

[@TES-541]

Personally disagree with this. If it works for you it works for you. I think there’s time to shut off music like studying, but music can even make you want to get out of bed and clean your house, or workout. Those things are tedious, no point of not making them fun with music. Life’s about focus sure, but it’s also about making things easier and more fun to give us that drive to go harder. Like imagine telling someone in the NBA to stop listening to music before a game so they could focus?

FINALLY I FOUND MY PEOPLE. ok so i don't care if someone's gonna read this but let me tell you my story. I used to be depressed and at that time i listened sad music, my playlist was filled with depressing songs. Its because those songs helped me get my feelings out and also made me feel like I'm not alone. But after a year when i started getting out of that depressive state, i still had those songs in my playlist, and whenever i listened to them those depressive thoughts were back. Untill i actually realised that 50% of the problem was music. Also there's one more thing, just as positive affirmations make you feel confident, sad music works the same way. You don't know those people whose songs you are listening to, sometimes there may be some subliminal message in those music that you don't actually listen to but your subconscious mind does. Some artists add those things in order to make their music popular. I have not stopped listening to music entirely, i still do sometimes but now I'm more mindful about what I listen to. One thing that helps me is that i avoid music with lyrics, i go for classical instrumental kind of music. I haven't watched this video yet because as soon as i read the topic of video i was like thank god I'm not alone. Keep up the good content

[@lukebrunclik]

Anyone who has to consume content about "self improvement" is confused about their life in the first place. There is no wonder someone they blindly trust may lead them on a wrong path.

[@delight163]

@@FF-wl1oothis kind of video could be considered self improvement but is also a real part of unlocking your brain from what its forced into. Most of the self improvement stuff is just not following social norms and going downhill with everyone else. So yes, if you have been participating in the rat race all your life, following this videos advice will get you closer to a state in which you dont need to consume them anymore

[@FF-wl1oo]

@@delight163 I beg to differ. Consuming this will make you spiral deeper and deeper into the hole. Close the laptop and go see your friends, that's the advice that gets you out of this.

@@FF-wl1oo your friends are most likely part of it. Your friends are enlightened monks and youre a degenerate with a dopamine addiction just does not add up, you are a sum of the 5 people you spend most time with. So no, you have to think things through (by being bored like this guy points out in his video) to realize whats going on and then you can go and see who to spend your tine with, what to spend your time on etc.
