[@TheInterestingInformer]

I don't really like this quote, if your still suffering, what's the point of discipline, discipline should make you feel good about yourself

[@TheInterestingInformer]

@@Nunchuks999 discipline is painful in the moment but fulfilling in the long run. Life’s simple pleasures are pleasurable in the moment and regrettable in the long run. Ultimately the choice is yours: patience and fulfillment or instant pleasures and regret.

This is so true. I've had this realization after 2 years of reading self-help books and watching productivity videos. I've always treated each book or video as a band-aid to the lack of motivation I had. I had the thought that one book or one video is going to change the trajectory of my life forever. But I realized that it's not the one book or the one video that changes a person, it's the consistency of showing up; it's the stacking amount of experiences that gradually improves our lives. "Action precedes motivation"

I think it’s important to address the “pseudo depressive state” comment. If you find yourself in this kind of rut often, and/or really struggle to get yourself out, it might be a good idea to talk to a professional. If you are constantly in this loop of motivation and self-loathing/pity, why keep doing the same thing? There is no shame in getting help when you need it.

Psychiatrists are a scam. And this has nothing to do with "toxic masculinity" or shame or taboo or any of that. I have no reservations about asking for help or talking about feelings. But psychiatrists are a scam. They have two goals: to keep you coming back and to collect kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies for each prescription they write. Your well-being is not in their interest. Don't fall for the medicalization trap modern society tries to normalize to squeeze out every last penny out of mental illness.

[@goncaloazevedo9822]

I have thought this way for a long time, but now I came to a conclusion that doing both is the best alternative. Comparing you only to yourself can blind you because this way you won't have an outise reference to tell how big is your progress. I call it absolute progress and relative progress, the first one you can use to know big is your progress copared to others and the second is your current progress compared to what you had sometime beofre it.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Try to not block emotions by distracting your mind, live them, feel them. It is part of the duel. Losing our mother must be one of the worst feelings we'd get to experience, but we will meet with our loved ones one day. Hope you find peace soon. 🍃🌺

[@MichaelSchwarzbacha]

I also want to chime in and say that processing grief or recovery in general is more like a whirlwind than a simple linear line. You will have good days. You will have bad days. Sometimes you'll be doing great for weeks or months and everything crashes down. The most important part is to acknowledge and process your feelings. Maybe keep a journal. Maybe have a trusted friend or therapist to bounce thoughts off of or express feelings towards. The second most important part is the conceit of this video: consistency and action towards a modified but new lifestyle. Everything you mentioned in your OP is perfect. These activities, hobbies, hangouts, sessions.. will help you stay grounded and help give purpose. But do not feel down on yourself if you don't feel up to it some days. Just try to get back to the things you love when you feel like it is time. I am truly sorry for your loss. It is in our weakest and most vulnerable moments that we are truly the strongest. You are loved!

Sometimes we need to be reminded that we need to take action before things can improve. I’ve already known this. But I just got done with a hard argument with someone I love and it felt like things were hopeless. I didn’t know what to do. I can’t get outside or work out very easily anymore. I can’t do very much. I needed to be reminded that even though I can’t do very much (which oftentimes throughout the day feels like I can’t do anything) I can still choose to take action.

Thank you so much for such a simple reminder that miracles aren’t real and life isn’t going to live itself… I’m still struggling to fight through perfectionism, my schedule is still a mess, but you brought me hope to look forward to a better tomorrow, I’ll keep moving forward, for whatever heaven or hell life is about to bring upon me, as long as I keep fighting, I know I won’t be dead.

This is a honest conversation. Thanks Joey!

Great video, I have felt that relying too much on self-improvement can sometimes make you feel like you are taking action, when in fact, you are making no progress at all in whatever you are chasing.

[@DanielGarcia-hv9qx]

What a video, congrats man. Didnt thought about watching lots of self improvement vids or reading books like those were bad, but you are right. You cant just stay searching how to change your life, you have to take action. Lots of thanks, i'll be a new person since now.

[@himanksaklecha3260]

It's really great how you bring something so simple that we overlook, but stress the fact as to how it's effective. Thanks man.

[@TheNubrozaref]

This is a video I didn't know I needed. I used to be extremely "productive" a couple years ago, then I had an experience that stopped it and I haven't been able to get back to that productivity. The experience made me realize how bored I was with that lifestyle and how it had lost a lot of meaning. I think the reason I haven't been able to get back to that level of productivity (despite being able to in the past) is because every time I start down the productivity path again a part of me rebels. The part of me that knows how empty that routine life felt. Not sure how I can fix the problem in its entirety yet (though I suspect it has something to do with metaphorically jumping in a lake/river) but this video helped me understand the problem better. Thank you!

"we don't think ourselves into new ways of living, we live ourselves into new ways of thinking." Powerful stuff!!!

[@worthless515]

Ever since I found you I feel less alone now that I know I’m not the only one who feels this way. At times I feel so disconnected from my environment and I feel alone regardless of where I am. With your videos, I feel like I’m being pulled back to reality and I thank you for that.

[@leonmichael3322]

First of all, thank you for these videos, I live with schizoaffective disorder, depression, etc, I can go on lol, with all that said I have learned to teach myself to live with my mental health bc I have changed the way I thought, it is not easy with my conditions but I make it happen thanks to your videos and just getting it done, not sure if I am making sense but thank you and keeps these awesome videos coming. I love Groundhog Day, one of my favs.

[@supercarlos625]

Joey I’ve been with you since 5k subs. You’re doing so awesomely. I think you would prosper in the tik tok scene as well, people love the 15 seconds of dopamine from self improvement clips. The save for later thing

[@ghastxm2083]

This mindset was what helped me out of my depressive state not too long ago. When I kept reflecting about how my parents would always say to “be positive”, over and over, I stopped and actually considered it and it’s taking me a little bit but I’m doing much better at implementing a new positive outlook on life. (Plus it helps that my blood type just so happened to be B+ lol and they kept pointing that out to me whenever I was negative). Your negativity just ends up clouding all the beautiful things that happen to you in life. So when I thought about all the times I lost focusing on the bad things I lose it on all the amazing moments in life. It’s just like the Pixar movie that came out, “Soul”. It really did feel exactly like that.

[@dariomladenovski7047]

but toxic positivity can be just as damaging as negativity, we are humans at the end of the day and we are all going to have negative emotions, blocking them or ignoring them can do a lot of damage to you, you have to experience them and then move on

[@malanjacques1]

Dude your videos are so honest and organic! Love the content and will always give your videos a space in my consciousness. Big ups 🙌

[@alexjcorona2605]

Well said. Appreciate the candidness and authenticity

Really needed this video. Perfect timing.

Literally been in a rut for a month, and knew I was needing to get out, so I’m walking to the bus and going on an adventure and I already feel so much happier. Needed a change 💜 appreciate the video

[@dharmapunk777]

Man, the timing of finding this is impeccable. Been isolating, slowly devolving for the past while. It's finally caught up to where it is affecting my work. This weekend was slightly warmer and I knew I needed to get outside and get some sun. But I've been in such a funk that even going for a walk in the woods is sort a utilitarian thing I do for maintenance, and doesn't have the soul soothing effect it usually, or at least once did. I often feel this great pressure to be more productive, and yet procrastinate by playing chess online, or watching "one more youtube video", read one more article. I have ADHD and hyperfixation can be a godsend when it is something that I want and need to be doing, but those rarely seem to align. Yesterday, I decided my version of self-care would be just pull out a chair and sit in the yard with the sun on me and read a good book with a cup of tea. I definitely feel better today. Planning to start a routine tomorrow, and so this video was good timing and even though intellectually I knew those things, it is comforting and inspiring to hear that I'm not the only one. Thanks

[@sahand8440]

You're the only one in the internet I can listen to talking about self-improvement who doesn't sound like "bla bla". There is always truth in your lessons. Keep doing the good work :)

[@poopymcgoof1712]

Thank you for this Joey. This message resonates with me.

[@furkanacar]

Thanks Joe! I appreciate your genuine thoughts 🙏

[@teekamsuthar]

Man, this is the single most relatable thing I've watched in a while. And this couldn't have been more accurate when I needed it the most, I'm going through the same sh*t right now. I don't usually comment on videos, but this time I HAD TO! Thank you for making this masterpiece.

[@AFPlaysthegoat]

It feels like this guy knows what I'm thinking, this weekend I was thinking about self improvement. WOW Your talented! You can make great content and read minds.

[@kaylar5178]

This reminds me that people can always say “I’m gonna finish my homework,” but will they? The action takes much more energy, and effort to do than the simple words.

[@LLOriginal]

I just saw another video of yours and this one played after... This is just what I needed. Really enjoy your grounded down-to-earth approach. Thanks man!

[@igorutzigpicco748]

I've been in a rough phase in the past months and this video really helped me. Just wanted to say thanks.

Life has its ups and downs. The happiness and joys that you experience are impermanent. So are the struggles and pain. And it's this in contrast in emotions that make life beautiful and meaningful ☀

[@chkchrycla]

I didn't want this video...I needed it. Thanks! My online business took a nose dive, my loud neighbors have been driving me crazy and our family pet of 12 years recently passed away. I've been in a rut....in just the last two days between a good friend and this video I'm starting to pull out of it. Again, a sincere thank you...You are an amazing person.

going through it right now. I actually looked for this video. Thank You

[@nbonasoro]

Great video. I have found this most often plays out by ruminating on an issue, and talking to people about it all the time. When I just "repress" the concern and live in the moment I feel much better and am able to get stuff accomplished feeling about about myself and my life.

[@NedDenver]

holy shit man. i needed this tonight! thank you!

[@crocky6996]

5:25 A great show I can recommend that treats that same theme and many more for those who are into anime is The Tatami Galaxy, it's a must to for every people who is gonna turn 18 soon, whether you're into anime or not, and a great watch for those who are older. Good video Joey! Many people needs it

For the first time in years someone had described my situation word for word. I am glad that I found you.

[@iamillasfuck]

5:00 LOL curiously enough this is the video that made me close my multiple tabs of procrastination and prompted me to start work. So long and thanks for all the advice!

[@Joshkin.]

I feel like self improvement takes away the thinking aspect from my conscious problem solving, and in turn my brain doesn't think it needs to learn on it's own so it relies on this external "brain"

[@Ilhuic4tl]

Thank you Joey 🖤 I needed this. Been stuck in that state for too long. And it is just so exhausting.

[@aimziq16]

much needed video right now. thanks man!
