    As I commented on another video, I'm on my 7th day of little to no overstimulating activities. This video honestly wasn't that bad to go through, which I think means I am getting a lot better. And doing productive tasks feels a lot better now too. I've failed in the past, but this time I don't think I'm going back because my life has objectively gotten better since I started this.

      @@diarrhea2004 Honestly, I kind of just did it via willpower. Of course, you can delete "useless youtube videos" from your watch history to make them appear less often and watch more "useful youtube videos" to make those appear more often. Something I did was watch a lot of computer science related youtube videos as I'm a computer science major in college. This way I was doing something a lot more productive than before, but without having to put in a ton of effort. When I first started, I only did actual work for like an hour a day and then slowly upped it from there. Now I don't really struggle to do like 5 hours of productive work each day.

    @qonstellations4124 3 дні тому

    This is a very nice initiative, I didn't expect high quality content from such an underrated channel. One thing I think would be beneficial is not only to detox for a set specific period of time like a week or a month as it gives your brain an idea as to when you can start using all the brain-rot apps again. Day by day, as you grow closer to the end of your detox, your brain will be more focused towards when the detox is ending rather than focusing on normalising your dopamine baseline. Instead, I recommend just shutting down all forms of social media and distractions, no going back doesn't give your brain hope of that dopamine spike ahead after the detox is over. It would be much easier then, for your brain to reconstruct its reward strategy and prioritising productive tasks like spending time with your loved ones, or reading a book, doing your job more efficiently, and overall leading a good and healthy life. Trust me, once you do this and get out of this trap the entire world is falling into, its very easy to realise how easily others are just being unconsciously controlled by technology giants trying to make money out of you. You start to realise that there's a broader meaning to life and that is how you win at life. To anyone who is going to start this journey, Good Luck and I hope you do well :)

    It's good to set goals and even better to actually work towards them. If you strive to be someone else, you will never be that person or do the things that they have done exactly. If you want to be hard or disciplined or skilled like Goggins, you can be, but you can't be him exactly. It's good to do things that make you stronger physically and build mental toughness, there are other forms of strength though - like the sort of strength you have to have to support people around you and make sure they're doing OK. You can have both. I would personally just rather build a lot of consistency in my training - get out every day and work on my body, work on my mind, even on days that are more restful - and take care of the people around me. At this point it doesn't matter to me how my own routine compares to that of other people, comparing myself to others won't make me work harder or get stronger. Would be cool to run a 100-miler or do thousands of pullups in a day, will I ever get there? Maybe. Goggins has a positive message but a lot of dudes will make the mistake of comparing themselves to him and wanting to be like him, it's just the fitness or mental toughness equivalent of keeping up with the Joneses... He got there through his own journey in life, if you set your own goal independent of how you compare to people or things outside of you that you don't control, you will probably be able to reach it too. That does not mean that it has to be the same goal as David Goggins. Could be just as hard or harder to accomplish though. Up to you.

    Most people with Goggins easily overlooked his broken body which he was born with. He could be dead any time because of his father's rage and violence. Maybe he would have died in a sort of gangster thug-like life. In some way, he's like Forrest Gump ...."not smart" person who has achieved impossible things for one life.

    Been a victim of taking the self improvement grind way too seriously. Cut off everyone and everything I previously enjoyed doing, and became absolutely miserable. Nothing wrong with having a little fun sometimes, but still remaining disciplined, and doing everything in moderation. Self improvement can be a trap if you make it your idol.
