8 Habits That (quickly) Changed My Life

Video Overview & Insights

One week. That’s all it took for these 8 habits to change my life completely. I was stuck—tired, unmotivated, and going through the motions. I had all these huge dreams and goals, but my actions reflected more of a Bart Simpson than a Ben Franklin. Whether you’re struggling with energy, focus, or just feeling stuck, these habits transformed my productivity, mindset, and health, and they can do the same for you. Let me show you how to:

Thanks for 500k fam! Love you all. Really excited about this next phase on YouTube.

If I can remember what I have read or said and then understand what I just read or even said, then I can apply it as well as analyze it then be able to evaluate it then create it.

one more great advice that work for me. When i was young i was so much curious about so many things, i learn the basics of 6 languages, i learn breakdance i learn beatbox, i was curious about truth, knowledge, answers at my question. But i was surrounding of people that are my opposite, not curious at all of learn something new, i was che kid that speak so much of his new interest but when i see people around me not reply at my question it feels like your fire slowly decreased. I’m 19 now and i have no interest of doing stuff, i’m unhappy about my status, not other fault, i would say both, so most important thing sorround yourself by good people, people that make you happy when you speak, people who can you talk to everything with no shame, people who don’t make laugh about you next difficult goal, that’s the most important thing for me.

the writing habit is underrated for the brain. externalizing thoughts reduces cognitive load and actually frees up mental bandwidth. added Olimp Motivation from the App Store to my mornings - one story from someone who figured it out. different energy going into the day

522K subscribers? Slow down fella, his excitement mainly comes from the fact that he like many of these other youtubers, simply excite YOU about something you rarely do while THEY continue to make revenue from the views. Notice the background music, the lighting, the approach. ALL the same.

Now it’s showing up

Related to finding what that is that youre insanely interested curious

How about thinking about it in terms of who you want to help - there’s some individual of some animal type going through a hard time - which pulls on your heart strings - they are being hurt because they are being used as a solution to solve a problem or a knock effect of such is impacting them in a negative enough way to yank on your heart string - what you do would be creating or bringing focus to a new way to solve the problem - your interest is insane because you want who it is to no be hurting

Thoughts ?

My one question about phone usage. What’s your rule when it comes to communication with friends and family? I understand not actively being on your phone for hours but what’s your take on just using it to respond to people reaching out to you or needing to check emails and work schedules and such?

i disagree with no. 8, mostly ignore output. output that you mean are result?
maybe it depends on what we are doing.
english is not first language. when i am learning english, output is important for me.
like practicing writing, and speaking are the output that i cannot ignore. practice is output.
speaking and writing fluently is the result
hope you're understand what i mean.
but thanks for tips. i save your video.
no 9. i dont like coffee 🤣, i just like the smell but not the taste

Reading tips: Stoic philosophy for example Marcus Aurelius gives you great guidelines for life. And of course channels like Daily Stoic is great. It is about the state of mind for example.

It is not what happens, but how you react to it that matters - Epictetus

I think for example Jim Rohn had taken stoic advices as well "Take full responsibility for your life. Don't blame external circumstances; focus on what you can control and what you do about what happens." Jim Rohn
