Building and sticking to good habits is the only practical way to start seeing positive changes in your life. So I asked you guys to list all of the best habits that you can think of and I then ranked them from what I believe to be the best to the worst in a tier list. Hopefully, this gives you some insight on which habits to focus on building first (because you really should ONLY build 1-2 habits at a time. One preferably.) This list consists of some of the most life changing, healthy, and productive habits that I can think of.
NOTE: These are my own personal opinions. People have varying experiences with different habits. Some might be game changing for me, while they might not bring much benefits for you. The key is to TEST them out and see what works best for you.

I'm intrigued by how the reasoning for so many of these points to external validation. "Makes you more well-rounded", "makes you more appealing", "makes people want to date you". Imo, the only habits I've successfully incorporated into my life are ones I did because I didn't care if anyone else would care or not. *I* wanted to do them for *me*. And if everyone else dropped off the planet and wasn't there to compliment me on my discipline, I'd still do them.

@jeromehaegman455 Жыл бұрын

I thought the exact same, learn an instrument because it makes you attractive? No way, learn an instrument if you want to groove or resonate with it. All of these external validations and "get things done just for the sake of it" are kind of missing the point of having healthy habits. Can't blame him however, self improvement channel have long changed since the Jordan Peterson mania of 2020.

@erwinlommer197 Жыл бұрын

Yeah, the reasoning for some of these was pretty thin. For example for a thing like dancing I think the main thing it does it gives you confidence and teaches to deal with the uncomfortable thought of what do the others think of me now. Dance is a performance and the dancer is the center of attention. Learning to deal with this attention in a healthy way is super useful especially early in life. It will make things like doing presentations easier, makes it easier to talk to bigger groups of people and it makes you less ashamed and cautious about your inner insecurities. It also helps you open up and be more comfortable with your body. Some happenstance of late night partying and leading the dance party are pretty worthless in comparison. There are other ways to do this. Acting is one other way. It teaches you to let yourself go and open up. Try something hard and get isntant feedback on it. So is singing.

Well I do have one thing to say about this. The majority of people watching this video probably live in a space of competition by design. Expanding on that, a few of my own long term goals would include raising a decent family and building a business that helps serves people. In order to achieve those at the fullest level, I have to view myself as an asset. That’s why being more well rounded (aka VALUABLE) is an important part (to me.) It’s weird because I can see this coming across as narcissistic or selfless. For me life is more than just getting through it with/for yourself. I personally feel a responsibility to push out of my comfort zone to serve people to the highest level. Now I don’t know if this is healthy or not because somedays I wish I could feel nothing and be nobody. But if I don’t work hard, I’m letting my ancestors down and I’m letting future generations down. Let me know what you think

Putting "learning a foreign language" in the B tier is such an American thing to do. Even after learning English, learning other foreign languages can be so beneficial for your career advancement, in numerous types of field. It also leads you to being more curious and interested in other culture, from which you can learn a lot. Most people's vision of culture is so western-centered, we don't read enough books written by Asian or African authors, or we don't watch that many movies from other countries. From these, you can get so much insight, instead of just keeping hearing the same ideas over and over.

I highly disagree with the low A tier rank of English language. It is a no brainer S tier for anybody who is not a native English speaker. Not just for financial reasons. It is a must have if you want to learn anything online, get the latest (or a lot of times any) information about a subject. If you have to rely on what is translated to your language, a lot of time you only have access to low quality or outdated knowledge.

@Endirell 3 жыл бұрын

@@ImprovementPill That is why English is S tier :) First you need to know about these useful habits. Then you have to aquire information how to build these habits. Quality knowledge is key. For most topics, it is very sparse in my language (Hungarian, roughly 15 million speakers worldwide).

Technically it could fall under "Exercise," but specifically "Walking" is an extremely healthy habit to get into, which I feel should be distinguished from other exercise because it can be done for actual practical use outside of your scheduled exercise. We spend so much time sitting at our computers or on the couch watching TV, people forget to simply get up and move. Our bodies are literally MADE to walk, in the past that was literally the most common thing people did because we had to actively move around to hunt and gather food. Not only that it's the easiest exercise to get into since it doesn't put as much strain on your body as it is low impact compared to running, and it's easier to do for longer periods of time because it doesn't tire you out as much as other exercises; plus you can walk pretty much anywhere as accessibility is greater, unlike weight lifting which you probably can't do at lunch hour at work/school, but you can go for a walk. There's also choosing to take the stairs instead of the elevator, but that's still technically walking...just harder walking, but it's less accessible than just walking. Another habit specifically for artists. "Sketching," although this could technically fall under "Practicing a Skill" since it helps you become a better artist. Sketching as is, is something that can be separate from the actual artistic skills that one does and incentivizes the action of actually putting pencil to paper and building confidence. As opposed to actually just learning to draw/paint based on your artistic niche and is something that benefits anyone in the field of visual artistry. Even sculptors benefit from sketching. I would even recommend it to non-artists as it can help people simply learn to observe the world around them or to develop your creativity, but for those not committed to art it is less of a priority since those same benefits can be built from other areas as well. Definitely S-tier for Artists but probably B-tier for non-artists.

Unfortunately, our boides are certainly not made 'specifically' for walking, or... literally anything. Humans transformed into bipedal creatures relatively recently, which means we still deal with a lot of issues. We have difficulty with giving birth, pooping, and even eating, because our thighs had to get narrower in order to provide our bodies with more balance, so we can walk upstraight. The fact humans can choke to death is caused solely by the fact we aren't leaning forward like monkeys do.

Actually cycling is better than walking. Cycling has roughly the same energy consumption as jogging but you can't easily lazy out and just go back to walking. After all you need a minimum speed to stay upright. I have found it way easier because of it. Also if you go out in a park or something cycling also allows you to move fast enough to have a constant change of scenery.

Habits in Order: S Tier: working out, bullet journaling, reading, meditation A Tier: cooking, working (on your projects), writing daily, socializing, listening to podcasts, practicing a skill, dancing, learning an instrument, grooming, chores, studying (academics), intermittent fasting, self affirmations B Tier: daily sunlight, cold showers, visualization (paired w/ action), budgeting, keeping a diary, making your bed, watching self-improvement videos, learning a new language, drinking water when you wake up, resting your eyes, stretching Not really a habit (reliant on other habits): waking up early, sleeping early, being mindful of your posture, being mindful of your words. Focus on building 1-2 habits at a time and the ones that will give you the most benefit at this time in your life.

@@morganmanesh5142 Hi! For me it’s really important to read all kinds of books because yes, non-fiction books give you knowledge that you can apply in the real world and self-help books target specific problems and give you concrete solutions but fiction books show you other worlds, boosting your imagination and creativity and also increasing your vocabulary. So yeah, you can get different but valuable knowledge from all kinds of books, you just have to search and have fun in the process:) Also if you liked the hobbit i would recommend you to read The Kingkiller Chronicle or the fantasy books from C.S Lewis. hope this will help you!

STRETCHING is definitely as critically important as exercise. Yoga and other forms of stretching are INCREDIBLY beneficial and healing to your muscles and connective tissue, as well as your mind, and as you'll see if you study anatomy and physical therapy, YOU WILL INJURE YOURSELF if you don't stretch at all. Make it a habit if you haven't already. Plus it feels amazing! Absolutely delicious at times.

Excellent video Improvement Pill! I would personally put Meditation as the number one habit to cultivate in the S-tier, if one is able to master it, and get to a place of solitude/fulfilment in oneself, everything in one's life improves, relationships are more harmonious, a greater sense of well-being emerges, focus and concentration becomes one-pointed and you're able to accomplish whatever you set your mind to with relative ease. I like to think once you're genuinely content and happy by yourself; you eventually come to peace of mind, your presence is significantly more noticeable and in the world you're a more impactful human being wherever life takes you.

Great Video! The one thing I will say is that there have been several recent studies linking messy rooms with intelligence and/or creativity (after this vid was made). I have many of the habits on this list, but I find that a clean room was something that drove me insane and caused a lot of unneeded stress and anxiety. For creative types (I play music, make abstract art (Colored Pencil and Acrylic on Canvas), and write poetry). it can actually work against us and our mental health. My therapist agreed with me that having drag out fights with my folks (Parents, and yes even my brother sometimes) played at least some small part in my depression. I just wanted to get that information out there. Some neat freaks and minimalists won't or refuse to hear what I have to say and that's fine. I just wanted people to know this information I found.

A podcast is classified below reading because apparently a "free styled conversation" provides less information and structure than a book. However, pretty much all genres have structures, otherwise they wouldn't be even recognized as genres, and the point is not how much information someone or something can provide to you, but the sources and the quality of that information.
