I like routines and optimization, but my goal in this is to get you to stop stressing yourself out, and just focus on what you can do without the extra step.
Love you all. Hope this helps your productivity.

I agree. For the longest time I was obsessed with being productive “the right way” as opposed to simply taking action. It was just productive procrastination at the end of the day

I think we all fall into that at some point. I was definitely in the same boat, productive procrastination. Especially because watching a video these days makes your brain feel like you’ve done a lot (lots of editing and all).

An idea for a video: People consume so much information from audiobooks, podcasts, documentaries etc when your brain can really absorb a limited amount of info each day and you'll learn way more if you learn a bit, take time to absorb it, apply it so it solidifies. Instead of just consuming mindlessly looking for the next aha moment. A word that perfectly describes this is mental masturbation. I feel like this topic hasn't been explored too much on yt

That’s a good point actually. I have a video I’m drafting now about “how to learn from KZfaq correctly”which goes into some ways to fix that issue, But I do think that subject alone needs its own video separately. Good suggestion! Thanks.

Very good approach on realistic productivity (or life in general). Many times, the attempt to improve life and attain certainty stops us from actually doing something.

Thanks! yeah Agree! I made that mistake myself so I just want to keep others aware.

Thank you so much for your amazing content and consideration. 😊 I’ve been feeling overwhelmed with tasks and in turn my ability to complete them. This video definitely inspired me to take action and begin noting my action steps. So, rather than jotting endless to-do’s and guilting myself for not getting a million to-do’s done, a ‘what action did I take today list’ seems the way to go. I also resonated with your celebration accomplishments video and plan to celebrating my baby steps from now on. And just for fun, these two steps will be my golden coins to level-up with joy just like Super Mario. Thank you again. As a new subscriber, I’m looking forward to your next videos. Take care.

Hey thank you! That means a lot. I sometimes wonder if it sounds 'too good to be true' due to how much the productivity industry is overdone. God bless you too.
