I am sorry to disappoint you but I’m none of these student types. I just mostly pay attention in classes do 30% homework and still get grades from B- to A I guess I just found out the best low effort way of learning

[@CoachedbyCrosby]

“You don’t have to be excited, you just have to do it.” 💯💯💯

[@guminb6216]

I would say you don't have to anything ;)

[@pediloca]

That quote really hit me hard! It definitely rang home

[@ericsesame6321]

The best way I've learned to complete tasks when I don't feel like it is thinking about the consequences of completing versus not completing tasks. The digital age fostered instant gratification. We want success _now_ without much effort. We forget that we have technology such as the Internet because hard workers took their time developing it.

[@criminechen]

This was honestly such a realization

[@PawtasticChronicles]

Motivation vs. Discipline. You do it not when you feel like doing it, but because you have to.

[@xinthebox]

Nothing beats consistency , you have to see your goals as mandatory not optional 1) make a plan - 2) create milestone - the little things do matter keep track when you reach a milestone, make it feel like an event 3) actually make time for your goals 4) only worry about the present moment don't worry to much about the future 5) stop negotiating with yourself - we instinctively try to avoid pain 6) Revisit your goal often - why you choose to pursue it what would your life look like when you finish. 7) forgive your failures - don't dwell on the past mistakes just focus on the present self. What happened to make me lose my consistency how can I make sure it doesn't happen again. 8) Do it anyway - goals are tough if it was easy you won't care so much about them cultivate inner resolve.

[@Rouker1910]

Huberman said that its even better way to stick to the plan when it comes to visualising future. Insead of seeing what happes when you succed you imagine what happens when you don't. Visualising failure works even better for this kind of job. Prove me if im wrong but im sure I heard that in one of his podcasts. Anyway keep it going guys no matter what happens keep moving forward :)

[@adrianarnld]

Consistency is really what I struggle with the most - motivation is fickle, and if it goes away I don't push myself. Incredible video and great tips!

[@NarangaravZorigt]

Never fully rely on motivation. It will get you started, but it won't be there when you most need it. That's when discipline and small, consistent actions come to help ;)

[@alexismandelias]

The "do it anyway" really hit hard... Thank you.

10 Cardinal Principles to learning: 1. Planning & Premeditations - Before starting a goal, break it down into smaller scopes and address the goal in small steps at a time. Premeditate every potential proceeding regarding the pursuit of your goal, including barriers, personal deficits, worries, fears, doubts, and failures, while maintaing the courage to get on with it. 2. Fundamentals/Foundations - Mastery of the fundamentals and foundations is key to strengthening information and understanding advanced materials, it helps develop a more refined connection between information. 3. Conscious Logical Process - "Think Like A Genius" Train this separately through tasks that require the use of logical thinking, this also involves intuition and the subconscious mind. Study Subjects: Mathematics, Physics, and Philosophy & Psychology or alternatively read lots of books, difficult ones. 4. The subconscious, Background Information, and Intuitions - These are where most of your learning will take place and where intuitions are born - Marinate and immerse your mind in information oriented to your goal and you will obtain fuller understanding and clarity. 5. Focus and Attention - Maintain sustained focus and attention to the larger and smaller scope of your goals, be mindful; do not let yourself become distracted by things that are irrelevant to the goal. 6. Fail - Develop the courage to fail - Invest in your portfolio of failures until you succeed, each failure brings you closer to success. You get better by being inefficient, slow, and bad, so take your time and enjoy the ride. 7. Growth Mindset - Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable, Embrace the struggle and thrive on discomfort, enjoy challenges, and derive pleasure from the protraction of effort. It may be difficult, but everything is difficult at first also, avoid comparing yourself to others, and work at your own pace - someone is better than you simply because they have spent more time and focus on those things than you did, it is not an indicator of a lack of ability. 8. Persistency, consistency, and Iteration - Maintain behavior, Keep going until you have succeeded, keep repeating until you have achieved your desired results, whatever you do. 9. Raw Practice - Focus less on theory and more on practical practice - practice makes perfect, practice a lot, and reinforce those connections. 10. Positive Attitude - It's a long journey, might as well sit back and enjoy the ride.

I’m finding this to be the best self help channel on KZbin. I’m in my mid 40’s and have found myself wanting to pursue a new direction in life. I let myself get caught in the “comfortable” trap, and I’ve been stuck for far too long. Your videos have been opening my eyes to where my weak points are. Thank you for what you do.

[@CoachedbyCrosby]

Good luck!!!

[@SToNeOwNz]

Glad to hear and well said! I imagine it like a spinning wheel, without resistance the wheel won't go anywhere. If you were born absolutely talented you would value the skills so much less, it's the exertion and seeing where we were vs now that matters.

[@michaelsmith4904]

@@SToNeOwNz It wasn't until I was older in life that I realized that these types of descriptions really get me down. I have a rather contrary streak, and ask questions like "Why does it have to be that way?" especially if it's not obvious to me that it must or it seems obvious that there is another way. It's great for certain types of work, but it can also lead to one questioning their place in the world because they just don't really feel like they fit in anywhere in the world. I also have a kind of stubborn streak where I push hard against a problem until either the problem breaks or I break, sometimes leaving me without any sense of accomplishment or even regret when I do succeed because I feel like the end result wasn't really worth all the suffering. It's like accomplishing the climbing of Mount Everest (I didn't do this, just an analogy!) only to look down and see how much trash and disturbance I left along the way. Now i regret having climbed the mountain because all that trash and hubris was necessary to get me to where I'm at and maybe things would have been better if I hadn't had this foolish goal. It kind of leads to a place between a rock and a hard place - I've mellowed a bit with age and have learned to relax and stop listening so much to what my brain thinks I should be doing, but I'm not getting any younger and this doesn't help any with my financial needs as I get older, because my brain keeps telling me all these great ideas which should be worth a lot of money. It hasn't come up with a good answer yet for how that can possibly be true when one who doesn't really fit in can't really provide what others want for to pay due to this difficulty relating.

[@evrosidwa2801]

Forgive your failures is such an important tip! It is what kept me going on my weight loss journey and succeed.

[@chaudiep8274]

'You don't have to be excited to do it. Just do it'. That's right. Consistancy leads to achieving your goals. Think about it, like write journal, forgive yourself when you lose track. Since it helps you do your chores like a habit and unconsciously like brush teeth. Focus on present and dont care too much about the past after you already find out the solution for your mistakes

[@brunobailly7013]

I've heard (and even given) these advices so many times, yet have fallen so many times into traps... Now I believe it's essentially for three reasons (n. 1 and 2 are linked to one another, but 2 & 3 are really the main ones) : 1. That "negotiation" thing you mentioned halfway through the video. But there's a reason I negotiate, and that leads us to the second reason... 2. Trying to avoid BOREDOM. I think one needs to "embrace the boredom" of exercising every day. I'm over 40 now, and I finally understood that the biggest challenge for me, what causes the biggest pain in daily efforts after a while, is actually not the physical one, nor the amount of concentration it demands... It's really the "repetitivness" of it that's the most challenging. and I've tried avoiding that pretty much all of my life 😒... It's almost a miracle I managed to accomplish things given the amount of time and effort I've put in trying to avoid boredom. But now I am starting to accept the idea that in order to get things done, boredom is unavoidable. What helps making it acceptable is knowing that you have allowed a bit of time in your day for the unexpected, the surprise, the non-boring. And also things like the practice of "mindfulness"... All in all, "accepting/embracing the boredom/repetitivness of daily exercises" is an exercise in itself. 3. Setting too many goals at the same time/ Working simultaneously on too many goals. I'm more and more convinced now that in order to be successful in anything, one needs to narrow down his/her goals to a very limited number of goals in a specific time frame... The only thing is I still don't know what is that limited number and/or how to find that out 😐😕... If any of you more experienced people out there knows this and would be happy to share your knowledge on this, I'd be extremely grateful 🙏

[@RockingKaur]

3rd one is literally what happens to me... Now I am focusing on one goal... Hoping to achieve it!

[@cxyrahpaclibar]

i was able to have a very good work result a few months ago and that really made me feel accomplished. then recently, i'm doing so bad in finishing my works and my goals doesn't seem close to reality. i was able to do amazing, i only need consistency! thank u for these tips! ✨

[@cdpalmo]

negotiating with myself is something i have been doing without knowing till now, great video, thank you

I think youtubers like Ali Abdaal, Thomas Frank really specialize on those kinds of videos. Maybe try em out :)

[@xNARCx]

My biggest flaw was an advantage all through school. I couldn’t tell you why but I never did the homework, never studied, and always performed really well in tests and in class work. Basically got all A’s and B’s throughout school with minimal effort because I relied on my memory or whatever else got me through. 23 now and working on retraining myself. 😂

[@alexismandelias]

Same. I was raised very well and was quite smart going to school. Graduated and entered university with minimal effort and now have to learn to actually study because it's harder than school.

Sometimes when you are far in your goals for example I stayed consistent for almost 2 years with football and It payed off , I started to see huge progress in a few time but I had long period where I was seeing nothing and that’s on those period where consistency shows and commitment is the key

[@potatoes4lifersxd813]

I love the analogy of getting homework done, because I struggle with consistency in every part of my life besides school. I wasn't really sure why until I realized that it felt mandatory, whereas practicing piano for my lessons everyday (for example) doesn't feel mandatory 😅. you just saved my life man

[@clairet5636]

My problem is I don’t even have huge goals that can be progressed toward, I just can’t keep up daily consistency with small routines. Can’t keep the place clean consistently, can’t do certain little things every day. I feel like I restart my goal over and over. It’s like “quitting smoking a thousand times.”

[@brendalg4]

[@taivan9030]

I don’t do what i want. I just try to listen to myself, and i try to feel my pain and needs. If it hurts you enough you don’t need discipline. Because you got no choice. You don’t need any motivation. Advantage of being driven by your pain is emotions won’t swing.

That sounds like a very dangerous mindset. You could become depressed.

[@salmanmunir1657]

Summary: 1) Make a plan for your goal of how you are going to achieve it? 2) Divide your main goal into small simple goals and when you reach one of these smaller milestones, celebrate your success. 3) Make time for your goal. 4) Only worry about the present moment, thinking too much about future could overwhelm you. 5) You should remind yourself main goal often. Why you want to pursue it in the first place? Is it going to make you feel more accomplished? Will it be the source of happiness? 6) forgive your failures. It's better to fail 1000 times and stand up rather than failing once and quit. 7) Stop Negotiating with yourself. We instinctively convince ourselves to avoid pain and that'swhy we procrastinate. You have to do it whether you feel motivated or not. 8) Do it anyway. No matter what happens just show up, be consistent in your approach and you will reach success. Conclusion: Remember when you try to achieve a goal, You are like a stone mason, you keep hitting the rock and think that nothing happens, but eventually it will break after many many hits. Be consistent

Consistency is great, as long as the actions you are taking and your plan do in fact lead to your goal. But it’s also important to track progress against the goal and adjust your plan accordingly. How do you know if your consistent behaviors will lead towards your goal when you don’t yet see the result of this consistency?
