Turning Off Your Autopilot Mode | Samuel Sperl | TEDxSaintAndrewsSchool

[@iRxyanDestinygtaandmoreL]

Ive been stuck in autopilot for 4 years and its truly affecting me, i feel like im not even living, and im confusing scenario i creat in my brain with real memories

[@roguephantom1715]

I've been there for 4 years with you my friend. For me, I wasn't able to follow my dreams. They come near and someone snaps them away just as they are about to come true.

[@iRxyanDestinygtaandmoreL]

@@roguephantom1715 that happened to me 5 times, maybe that did it for me? It was super devastating, one of them is i wanted to be a pilot, i tried a lot when we finally got the money and i was registering, i got another blow, im colour blind i couldn't do it, its was soo awful

[@iRxyanDestinygtaandmoreL]

@@roguephantom1715 i feel you man, stay strong hope we can do it one day

[@Jr-fm2ye]

Right I came up with a hundred different scenarios

[@pychnektv]

Same here but for like 8 years 😵

[@inserthf]

I actually clicked this video to help me with tryouts for my college league of legends team, and i hope that it helps a bit!

[@abdenourslimani4817]

[@sambarroso2168]

Did you get in?

[@macgawain3645]

Yeah they got in

As someone who is highly productive but has a long lazy past when I’m tired/exhausted my laziness comes back through my autopilot mode. I really wish I could change it so instead of wanting to watch Tv all day I’d at least draw, socialize and read. It’s like I’m not even there just a husk walking around while I recharge.

[@Arch009]

how did you become highly productive?

[@blendpinexus1416]

i too cane to the realization that i autopiloted too much. now i mostly operate in a hybrid autopilot. i let auto do it's things but keep mentally aware of my surroundings. been the vest thing ever.

[@moose2241]

I'm pretty much on auto pilot everyday, I just tell my body to make simple decisions here and there

[@ahmadsebaey1830]

You are right and this is good when you brush your teeth, but when you want to improve your self in something you need to be conscious and know what is actually happening at the moment.

[@quentinac375]

I feel like I'm possessed. I've started putting my phone and I feel like I don't know what I'm doing. I'll make a lot of errors talk and so on. I have a hard time gathering my thoughts.

[@gaming4K]

5:42 the question why i searched for the autopilot. I just felt like what am i even doing what did i do in the last half year? Why i am not doing what i always wanted to do? We all should scedule and try new things to get out from the autopilot and have time every day to stop and think about it. Am i doing what i want to do?

[@Pokepunk]

i have a theory that talking to yourself helps stop autopiloting. imma try it more

[@lordbishopkingmakercaraniu4118]

Did it work..?

[@lizrivera5263]

I told myself this at work today & not just myself but to Jesus who listens. I forget he’s listening all the time but it definitely helps.

[@mehdibrahmi5470]

I do

[@hycix705]

As a League player I approve of this

[@hycix705]

Focus on your five senses Ok I will 1 focus on what you can see Ok sees fly flying around 2 focus on what can you hear Fly literally flew into my ear 3 see what you cal feel See answer step 2 4 what you can smell He also flew up my nose If there is a God is he messing with me

[@maro12e20]

knowing how to turn off the autopilot is very important for muslims in there pray, i found out that i have been praying and i would just in a blink of an eye, the imam will finish the pray , i couldn't even remember how many rakaas did i pray, and reading qurran (الماعون 4) should make all of us rush to learn how to foucus { فَوَيْلٌ لِلْمُصَلِّينَ (4) الَّذِينَ هُمْ عَنْ صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ}

[@prodmanolo]

i stopped playing league for 4 years, and i picked it up again a month ago, not surprised i end up here

[@prodromosx07]

LEAGUE OF LEGENDS & AUTOPILOT = SECRET TO SUCCESS HOLY MOLY.

[@viciousviego2478]

me googling this to focus more on my league of legends games clicks on video and then the guy mentions it LMAO

[@Elemxnt45]

Ive been in autopilot for my whole life probably a decade.

[@mehdibrahmi5470]

Autopilot is like you give up to your unconscious mind and you become like a robot. It's like you're trapped and your mind doesn't want you to leave it by ringing crazy thoughts and fears to keep you in the hamster wheel. This has been my case for 2 years now and I still struggling to leave it.

[@technogaming1993]

I was living with auto pilot mode since i born now i am realising it that it was nothing he was someone else.... And i am 17 years old

[@highlyfocusedmostefficient4942]

Focus on things which are going on in our mind and 5 senses

[@thetute59]

Well how do I tell this all to my autopilot who keeps turning on?

[@cutezombiekitteh]

Practice trying to catch yourself in autopilot, and congratulate yourself with a Well Done Brain moment (some positive self talk - weird at first, but again practice, like learning the lines of a play you will get better)

[@gamertv4258]

Get out of your comfort zone and your eyes will open to see the real world

what he basically sais is live in the present.... and use the 5 sence of your body

[@litt_000]

brow wtf, i was thinking just about that before entering this video. In lol, if you want to play better and not make mistakes, you have to be thinking every moment about what you're doing and what you gonna do in the next minutes, so i wanted to know how to do that in real life to stop procrastination

[@arzoo_singh]

Let me try to explain his method of turning off autopilot mode . But for that know that you are thinking even if you are not thinking . So,what happens when in autopilot mode same thoughts same patterns over and over and you are a program . Now what to do ? Sleep. Meditate An easy way do nothing think nothing no thoughts . Not easy way okays one more ways engage you're senses . That is touch,feel,smell ,taste.but not thinking . So be in nature smell rose ..engage deeply how it feels . Sit somewhere feel how relaxing it . Put something on you're tongue feel the taste . See something beautiful and appreciate it .

[@vinayaksharma1353]

Even using this technique frequently will make it more autopilot 😂😂😂

[@recur9245]

I've been auto pilot for too long literally autopilot to the next day and the next day literally rushing my life and not thinking

[@miransh]

Starts at 4:40

[@timderkekskeks4590]

Nice one, man!

[@RohanD9987]

Personally, I idk if I am on autopilot or not. I feel going through life is natural and feel it is consistent but not effortless. Its hard to explain but my brain is usually in this natural relaxed state where I can intake information and do work without having to actually change or try too hard even tho I am taking action and obviously putting in the work, I don't know how to completely explain it. Its like raising one eyebrow or moving your ears you can do it but how do you explain it, something are just not explainable and that's okay because the brain is a very complex organ.

[@krish9582]

Gteat example of auto pilot mode driving. Further i always difficulty in manual gear shift. Auto gear shift is ok. Does this matter a lot ????

[@ladywithpower3808]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!

[@ChapinQuestWright]

I LOVE THISSSS

I got loss streaks in league and decide how to rid of my autopilot habit. How coincidence is this

[@dothevc8275]

[@beauthesuperawesomemagical2808]

its sensory overload to turn off autopilot

[@2137xd]

U mean i gotta overstimulate my brain to stop it? Xd

[@MattMussett]

@@2137xd gaming helps no sleep and tons of coffee and weed 🤣

[@lukasnilsson3015]

My autopilot turned off during this video and that's annoying

[@singhbhai]

Ohhhh Maybe That's Why Many Rich People Have Habit to read books 😮 Now am also gonna start, nerd like me needs this type of proof or motivation to start something 😂

[@undertaker9956]

My life is dark souls

[@lij4335]

am I the only one who wants auto pilot lol I'm tired of being to conscious and aware of everything I feel some things should be automatic

What is the youtube channel he talked about at 6:30 ? Can't find it.

How to get off autopilot

[@gothammetal5811]

This is such a terrible ted talk. He acknowledges the problem without giving a real practical solution.

[@Riuyilmistico]

No one will like what I'm gonna say, but there is no such thing as an "autopilot mode" in people as it is being described here or in the comments

[@didi8922]

Probably because u didn’t explain so people would just disregard ur comment

[@subhasish1718]

Well there is something called muscle memory. Sportsmen use it all the time to perform well during their main stage performance. So I dont see any reason to disregard the concept of auto pilot in day to day life

[@Riuyilmistico]

@@subhasish1718 muscle memory is different from what people are talking about in this comment section
