Why You Can't Do The Work

[@Robin-os1os]

The motivation that you're feeling right now will not be there when you'll try to face the work. Most relatable for me.

[@03giacomo]

100%, no video is going to be as good as you just pushing through and facing it

[@Slo-ryde]

That is likely because as you attempt to face the work, it does not stimulate release of dopamine producing instant gratification that other activities may produce!

[@scout4808]

This was all I needed to hear.

​@@scout4808 same, I needed to hear this too

The path to success is like a hall of broken glass

[@theironrubberduck]

I always wonder if there is an easier way when I do stuff, but reading this, I know I just gotta do it, dont I?

[@thanos5220]

​@The Iron Rubber duck Yes. Do it enough times for your brain to realize that broken glass can't really hurt you, and the only thing stopping you is you.

[@KK001]

Get a sweep then

[@aliveonmoonrocks]

"Destroy that identity that no longer serves you." Excellent advice!

[@cguibcx]

Ex- lazy stoner here trying to start a business! The thing that's been helping me lately is seeing these things I used to use as comforts - distractions, smoking, scrolling - for what they really are; obstacles that are in the way of the things I REALLY want in life. I'll literally get myself worked up and angry, like "how dare these things disguise themselves as comforts when they're really my worst enemies!" and then use that defiant rage to launch myself into action for the day. I hope I'm not the only one who does this lol.

[@KeaCraft]

Sounds powerful. I will try this too, thanks!

[@brandooo32]

We’re in the same boat, using the obstacles as a way of pissing myself off has helped me kickstart this journey to better myself. As soon as I realize I’m letting my old self try to take over, I do exactly as you mentioned and use the anger to force me into making things happen for the day. I’m glad I’m not the only one who understands and does this. 🤝

[@koriya5365]

I like your name a lot, good meme 👌

[@luciusbright]

This is the golden trick!

[@olgakuzmenko6907]

I totally agree!!

[@moushumi_chakraborty667]

God might have tasked him to change the lives of people & it seems his task is done. He has really done God's work.

[@Im-lost-pleaese-help]

Stfu eith that god shit man, he aint real so stop giving into a cult bro wake up man i say this for your own good. You really wanna be delusioned your WHOLE life?

[@kardashiandalisay8860]

I wonder what happened to him. His Twitter acct isn't available also😢

[@stevew.5896]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I now understand as to why we haven’t heard from you in a while. The handful of your videos are exactly what you need for self-improvement. After so many videos and coming out with more, you will eventually start to repeat yourself and just come here as a selling point to consumers rather than really helping (unlike a lot of KZbinrs). And for that I just want to say thank you and I appreciate your work. Hope all is well

[@oneyedeagle]

glad im not the only one who thought that.. thats def what it is. shoutout giacomo

[@Areybhaishubham]

‘Current self is a living thing that doesn’t want to die’ is a new insight I have personally gained. Thank you brother. This helps a ton.

[@usmanibraheem]

Bro! Where did you go. You Channel is very Valuable.

[@luckaugustin5123]

I swear you just posted this video when I needed the answer to this question.

[@madisen6730]

Same here- right on time

[@03giacomo]

I'm glad to hear that, hopefully it was helpful.

[@JBProject2]

The algorithm knows your thoughts.

[@mrgreen3195]

Exactly bro.. just had thought about this half an hour ago and then I saw this

[@shragolicious]

It’s not that this video is just in time, it’s that this is a battle we’ve been fighting throughout our lives. Now we all have to take these answers and use them beyond the comments we post in this video.

[@leejr9999]

This guy came in, made 10 great videos, and was like "Ight, I'ma head out"

[@yngmk22]

hope you doing great bro, i used to watch your videos in a very difficult moment of my life and they helped a lot. Just needed to say tanks and wish u well 🙏

[@TjRaven23]

this is probably the most important video one can watch. It literally is the key to most of the things one might want

[@Spifey]

You explain this so well it’s such a strong mental barrier sometimes

[@Amnanor]

Random

[@vanhill3561]

In the category of: So simple, but not easy, but so worth it!

[@amnay_tag]

last year i downloaded 3 videos of yours as an mp3 and one of them is this and i listen to it on the road as if it's music I'm sure it's been more than a 100 times so i can technically say i memorized it😂

[@rockintelligence]

Recognizing our current identity as an entity that tries anything to survive is such a mind-blowing concept and I love it!! I've been struggling to change these days so this vid gonna save my life for sure. As always, thank you so much for bringing valuable content💎 You the best!!

[@03giacomo]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video

[@joebloggs6556]

I'm so motivated right now, I can do anything I want to...Thanks buddy Here comes the new me!

[@HoTiiiii]

bro, I've never seen someone I can identify with more than I can with you

[@wolf7379]

This has to be, in my opinion, the best video on self-improvement I have ever watched in my entire life. He expresses in clear and effective language the true nature of why we procrastinate and what we need to do to move forward to be successful. His words are simple, direct and hold universal truths - even spiritual truths. In one of his videos on relationships, he said something to the effect of the more you chase after relationships, the more you push that away. By chasing after something or someone you are showing desperation and revealing your lack instead of accepting what is and improving yourself. You are showing yourself to be 'needy' and weak. That is a spiritual truth and law. Instead, you surrender to what is and focus on developing and improving yourself, your skills etc. Ultimately, your new self with its skills and self-esteem will attract what you are worthy of in people, things and positions.

[@benjaminbarks.]

Please don’t stop making videos. You have changed my life.

[@Name-tn3md]

And what changed

[@ShaneDMCshorts]

For some reason I resonate with this on a deeper level

[@ShahzaibRaza-x7z]

I have scoured through countless channels and watched thousands of videos, hoping to find something that truly resonated with me. Initially, I stumbled upon your channel with the same expectations I had for the others, but something compelled me to give it a chance. From the very moment I pressed play on one of your videos, I was captivated. In one sitting, I devoured all of your content, unable to tear myself away. It has been a mere week and a half since I discovered your channel, and already I find myself propelled by a newfound sense of purpose. The shift I have experienced is far more profound than mere motivation; it is a driving force that compels me forward. I deeply appreciate the guidance and wisdom I've gained from your videos. Your ability to connect with the audience is truly remarkable. I believe your channel has the potential to inspire and empower countless individuals. I wish you the best of luck in reaching new heights. Your impact as a guiding light in my life, and the lives of others, is truly significant.

[@03giacomo]

Wow man, I'm very glad to hear that the videos have helped you - thank you for the kind words

[@vortexfx420]

That's great! Keep it up and know you are loved :)

[@RowsEdits]

I like how even with all the productivity/self improvement techniques, the only thing to do is still do the work. It reminds me of the law of equivalent exchange, if you want a great success you have to suffer in a way (risk/effort/uncertainty..).

[@03giacomo]

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction

[@Yeeha494]

The type of content that hamza promises but this guy delivers without 20 minutes videos diluting it into common sense with psychology tactics to get you hooked onto his content. This guy gives out the info and steps to actually make change, love it. You’re gonna defeat all the fake productivity/self improvement gurus/scammers.

[@lukfury]

So our current self is afraid of change because when we reach our desired self, we will have no use for it, love that way of thinking

[@03giacomo]

Exactly

[@sanstom88]

This guy is legit...most humans might fail to reach this level of self realisation thanks to the modern education system, the social media age and endless hype of human survival baseline needs Thanks for the clarity on this topic, it's precise like the stillness when you speak. Namaskaram 🙏 I have managed to pull out of life disaster thanks to guidance from Sadhguru

[@silenttuber5802]

When i first saw u i thought " i dont think this 18 year old can teach me life lessons " then i thought " U can learn something from everybody " and gave it a try .... Well im 41 and want to say " thanks for the lessons ! My higher and lower self are in a big war right now and this helps a lot .thank you !!!

[@priscilladevi9705]

Lazy demons attatch themselves to people to hold us back. I'm a Christian so I think this way. It is always up to us to overide it and just to do it. You are quite right I understand what you saying 💙

[@r.k.15]

exactly, that "force" he's talking about is satan, holding us back from our potential. The only way to truly fight it is through god.

[@alina-n5f]

thank you for this video. It feels like the universe sent it to me when i asked for help from him. like a sign.

[@EdgarMendezz]

Good info. I’d like to add, for self starting discipline individuals. Play this video again as a reminder to not give up. Like he said, motivation won’t always be there. Your discipline however always will be and if you discipline yourself enough you’ll realize it gets easier to say no to things and basically JUST DO, whatever you decide to do. I remember a video I watched that said this.. “It takes 3 seconds to make up your mind.” If you haven’t made up your mind in those seconds you will give in to your old identity or your decision that you are trying to change. So don’t think about it. Just act

[@JingYuans_sparrow]

I’m literally shocked by the amount of points of contact between what is said in this video and my depression notes. I’ve been hostage of my current self for two horrible years, during which things only got worse to the point I couldn’t leave my home and even washing a dish felt impossible. The only thing I was able to do was to write what I understood: I wrote about an invisible force enemy of change. I wrote about the fact that every time you challenge it, it gets easier, and if you don’t, the force gets stronger. Despite having understood all of this, I fell back, because I couldn’t accept the suffering part. And here I am discovering somebody who’s been there and it’s sharing the secret: there are no secrets, you can’t avoid pain. Thank you for this video, I hope this is the last time I hit the bottom

[@Momo_top]

incroyable

[@sissimp4]

*Didn't think something could be so helpful in overcoming procrastination. Thank you!*

[@anusha2465]

Do you even remember this video now?

[@Schloetz]

"It knows if it allows you to freely do the work and change your life, it will die. It can and will do absolutely anything to survive." Personifying that version of yourself is a really interesting way of viewing it. In lots of ways it's like a parasite, and draws a lot of biblical parallels to Satan attempting to whisper temptation into your ear. Ultimately you have to refuse to feed it, and let it die.

[@WishinggWell]

Your channel is easily becoming one of my favourites. Honest, truthful, resourceful, and yet a sense of compassion.. Keep up the good work, i foresee amazing things for you!

[@aryamann42]

I can’t tell you how much this video has helped me! Thankyou so much from the bottom of my heart.

[@RaxLakhani]

I'm so glad that this video was recommended to my in my KZbin feed. Everything you covered is an exact description of what I have been experiencing all my life. I always thought that nobody else could understand the sense of conscious paralysis that I continually battle with. Seriously, pretty much word for word, your video sums up my mental state. Thanks so much for making this video. It has made a real difference.

[@valtervk3813]

The video was like a mirror to me as well

[@pdlrkpdlrk9971]

You're not alone bro it's a everyday problem at this point

[@ZonymaUnltd.]

_Woah…_ absolutely mind-blowing presentation. “Use the *resistance* as a compass” - this really hit me hard, and will require very serious introspection. Thank you for taking the time to create this.

[@1375chelsea]

So true. That’s why it’s important to pursue a work that’s aligned with your passion in life. Less resistance is there. Life is full of constant struggle.

[@MaggieSavedByYeshua]

One of the best and wise videos I've watched. Thank you for sharing this wisdom and putting it across in a plain and simple way. Every word you spoke is true and hits the nail on the head. I will definitely give this a try as I've been struggling for the last few months with procrastination with tasks that involve changing my current self into a better future version. The identity war has given me a new perspective. Thanks, brother. God bless you!

[@TheIllerX]

Really good videos with a lot of truth and no bulls*t. I liked the idea of thinking of resistance as your old identity fighting for survival. Identifying the enemy in that way makes it more concrete and real and thereby easier to fight.

[@03giacomo]

I'm glad you enjoyed

[@khornelor6]

Bro I have watched every single self help channel out there and I’ve never felt so understood by any of them as I feel by this

[@cherryb0ng]

Very, very well spoken. Tip my hat to you, good sir. You have me convinced that if my brain is trying to stop me from doing something it's because it is afraid of what I will most certainly become. It's not about trying, it's about doing it constantly until you inevitably achieving the result. I don't appreciate all of one's videos equally, the ones that I believe have the deepest meaning for me.

[@TheMiaxela]

You really explained it so well and it has a logic behind it. As I'm going through process of change, I realized my resistance is so strong it's actually blocking me from functioning as a rational human being which is scary and sad at the same time😢

[@yusufhabib3507]

I have no words for this , you have extraordinary talent of writing

[@jedidiahanarfi]

Bro! This is Profound! 🔥

[@AmateurHour1111]

I’m a kickboxer and….stoner. I’ve been strongly considering becoming a police officer. I’ve been taking steps to find out more and I’ve learned that the departments around me require me to be clean from weed for 12 months before I apply. And I live in WASHINGTON STATE. And then of course continuing to stay away from weed if I get hired. I’ve been smoking every day for 9 years. If I want to do this it’s going to be a life style change. Not just a tolerance break. I’d have to change and just not do it at all. It’s possible. But difficult. This video made me think of this.

[@03giacomo]

Best of luck to you man
