Agreed. People see the excitement of other people's lives. Traveling, relationships, events, etc . . . But, these are small moments that are only temporary. Most people live a simple and basic life. Borning isn't bad. It's stable. Sure, shake things up on occasion with the exiting. But, for the most part, just relax and enjoy the normal. Because while it may be fun, new, and exilerating to meet a potential new lover interest (for example) most people, when they find their person, are happy just to enjoying the feeling of safe and familiar. And the same with people who love to travel. Nothing feels like home when you get back.

nice!

Bro if don't mind your talking to fast and procedure of your talking can take the attention of audience so we want you to bring some changes for your audience. thanks

I disagree . . . I could die of embarrassment.😁 But, seriously. Agreed, people tend to put so much press on specific events that are going on in their life. And not that those moments, tests, and situations aren't important. But, for the most part, they are not life or death and you only increase your stress and anxiety by putting on more pressure. Instead of just accepting what happens, happens. More important is how you react to the situation and face the challenges that follow, regardless of success or failure, which helps to determine your character and next steps in life.

Great vid bro, stay hustlin 👏

Agreed. Consistency is key. While it is healthy to aspire to others on a similar path. I would agree it is probably more beneficial to aspire to be who you yourself want to become.

Are you russian?

Good job cute guy❤

i am learning how to speak native English few months ago. It is hard but I don't want to give up

Hey Janis , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?

Your voice: 🗿

I understand the perspective and drive. That's great. But keep in mind that you and your friend chose to end a hiking trip early and get back to work after a day. In your conquest of success, just remember not to sacrifice friends and family. Time is a valuable commodity you can't get back. Just be careful you don't make the mistake of spending all of it on just one area of your life. For example, you've mentioned wanting a girlfriend. That type of "connection" takes time, energy, and sacrifice to cultivate into a relationship. So just remember reaching your goals is important. But, hopefully not at the expense of the people in your life. Also, your own mental health and wellbeing. You’re unable to enjoy your vacation. Now, i get it, many men have a very cutthroat approach to success. But you may want to self-reflect why that may be. Because, taking a step back from your goals doesn't mean you’re lazy or a failure. It means you understand the importance of recharging and rejuvenating yourself, so you can accomplish more.

I read Atomic habit. That was a great book

nice camera set up

Amazing Video Janis! I love the way you talked about productivity in terms of brain points, and distraction in terms of "attention leakage". That's such a great way of putting it!

Routine is great for keeping yourself accountable and on track. But, after a while, you build that consistency up over time. Like you said, you no longer need the routine to maintain your productivity. You've already unlocked that ability with weeks, months, and years of consistency. The other benefit of a routine is not so much adherence to a strict schedule. But, making sure you complete certain tasks each day. It's not the when that is important. Just that you devote some time to the task itself.

The irony is people who feel good about themselves by attacking others, tearing down others, or feeling superior to others, really don't understand the point behind self-improvement. You're not improving yourself so you can feel a sense of pridefulness. But take pride in who you are as a person.

Love your videos Janis, I've some ideas and some suggestions to share with you, what's the best way to contact you directly? let me know please i'd love to have a conversation with you.

Crazy thumbnail G, keep it up❤

Generally, it just comes down to accepting yourself, like you said, beings yourself, knowing what you want, and going for it.

Put simply, creat a solid foundation and build upon it. More importantly focus on one area of your life. Once that's stabilized, focus on another. So on and so forth. Yes, there are many elements why your life is unbalanced. But, trying to juggle to many things as once still leaves you unbalanced, frustrated, and self-defeated. But, fully agree, if you don't start investing in yourself, you will never grow successful as a person.

Please work on the way you word your tittles

You got a new subscriber. Keep going ❤

The contrast of conformity you mentioned is a nice touch. After doing hard things, easy or relaxing things do actually feel easier and more fun. Good luck!

Agreed . . . It's not that doing what you are passionate about is going to prevent hard days. It just means that bad days may not be as bad. Or your motivation doesn't completely die. It is the same with a relationship. They're hard work and you have to put in the effort. But, when you're with the right person, you feel motivated to keep investing in the connection you're building with the other person.

Along with intention, as you mentioned, follow through with the application of what you learn. It is so easy to fool yourself that you're going to take action. But, if all you do is learn, you're just in a different state of stagnation.

Dear.. Keep work for go ahead..😇

Intresting approach. Agree with listening to music while you work. I've heard it's best to use instrumental only. As music with lyrics can be a distraction. But, I've heard a solution to that is to play song in an unknown language. Because if you don't know the words. You can't get distracted. Great video. 😁

Agreed, it is hard. I'm finding, however, that a healthy approach is to limit focus. As you stated in a previous video, we only have so many "points" to focus on certain activities a day. So it is best to be less frivolous with our time. But, to go further, I'm realizing I can only spread myself so thin before I lose all motivation. So, in order to keep consistent with my progress. I'm going to realign my focus with working out, learning a new skill, reading, and writing. Just these four things that I need to work on each day, after work.

Great message. The greater challenge is keeping yourself motivated beyond work and a workout.

Great points. One thing you alluded to was to also to ask open-ended questions. Basically, try to avoid questions that are yes or no. This way, you can gain more information and continue the conversation based on their response. That's really the key. Listen and base your response of theirs. Obviously, find a balance of they share you share. But, generally, while people love to talk about themselves, most people will notice this and give you a chance to speak at some point. So, a few key questions are great. But, make sure you can offer up as enthusiastic a response too.

Bro, thank you for this video

he is speaking facts 🤞

I love these

Generally, the idea is if you tell people you're "plans" of improvement, growth, change, or whatever. Is that it will create a dopamine hit that will decrease your drive to take action. Or people who mock or tear down your idea, therefore destroying your motivation. The third issue is that if you actively tell people about your progress or things you're doing, it essentially shows your "motivation" is the need for outside validation of others. Or, as you said, you're developing an ego focused on feeling good about yourself by bringing others down (a superiority complex). Both of which defeat the purpose of self-improvement. Because one is about making yourself a better person mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Second, it's about realizing you don't need extrinsic motivation to change, grow, and improve. Sure, we all appreciate adulation from others and a bit of vanity from an Instgram post. We're human (Plus, person trainers, athletes, and models literally are selling their bodies as part of their business plan at least on the physical aspect of improvement). But, if you only feel good about your progress in any area of improvement when you can showoff . . . You clearly have some unbalance in your life and may need to seek professional help to understand why.

Agreed. One thing I'm trying to utilize to avoid "wasting time" is to get what I need to get done first in pursuit of a certain goal(s) then allow myself the freedom to waste time. But, the big difference is that by pushing ourselves first, we earn the right to relax and can enjoy it. Compared to being inactive and feeling guilt later. As we realize all the time we wasted.

As I heard on another channel. The hardest part about making progress is you won't see any results for a while. Like you said, it takes time. We often talk about shorter attention spans. But, we often fail to mention a diminished drive to start anything or stay with it. Because we see the result of the person lifting massive weight. Muscular body. Being really flexible. An amazing dancer, artist, writer, etc . . . Point is this. Others success should act as an inspiration to aspire us to a similar level of success, if you find yourself truly passionate about it. But the results and success they achieve isn't the goal itself. You must define your own reason for wanting to achieve and develop such a skill. Beyond money, success, and $ex. Because extrinsic motivation isn't going to keep you pushing towards anything. But, it will add to the reason you give up before you truely even start.

Hey! A big thanks for your incredible content! 🙌 I’ve sent you a little gift in your DMs as a token of my appreciation. Your videos have really made a difference for me. What’s your favorite part about creating this content?

You can't enjoy life if you are not there in the first place.

Well said. There are two flaws to self-improvement content. One, people just consume, but don't apply or change anything. They just get a dopamine hit off the "intention" but have no plan of action. Second, people try to change too much to quickly. Working out, diet, socializing, giving up a bad habit, etc . . . Going from a lazy, unhealthy mindset to a zealous mindset. Worse, as you said, they change based on other peoples perception, success, and general advice that may or may not apply to them. Simple put, get inspired, figure out something you want to change, and then work on it. Then, after some time (usually a few months), fix/change/improve something else. Self-improvement or self-help is a business like anything else. So "buy" from the business what you need. And leave the stuff you don't on the shelf.

It's still okay to play video games as a way to unwind for an hour or two if you still have time, but if you are already commited to your goal and have no more room to play then let go of it and face your life ahead

Great perspective. It's very easy for us to plateau in our progress towards our goal. Believing we have to just push through. When actuality we need to step back, reassess, and approach the issue from another angle. Even seeking out outside advice or input from another trusted source.
