How Deep Work Helped Me Cut Distractions
I’m 30 and have worked at the same toxic maintenance job for 8 years. The pay and healthcare is okay but the environment has only gotten worse. My plan is to use my 3 weeks of vacation before the end of this year and quit in the Spring. I’ll have to curtail spending and find part time work but I have money saved and no debt. I’m over this crap!
Needed to hear this tonight, I have to be kinder to myself and stop dragging myself down for not «measuring up» to what I have previously been. I need to be me, not what I was.
I always track my macros but I was into competitive bodybuilding for a long time and im a personal trainer. You do need some information to get your macros right. Weight and body fat percentage. You can get w body scan at most supplement stores or a gym.
100% - it is definitely a little trial and error to find that sweet spot. I absolutely agree.
What do I do if I've completely lost my motivation to work? I don't want any job. I don't want to waste my life working. I just want to live my life, but I'm forced to do some meaningless job just to make a mediocre amount of money, just so I can have permission to live. It's demoralizing. What can I do?
7:44 "there really is no excuse to not finding success" Oh, you're one of *_those._* Welp, thanks for wasting my time, pseudo-hustle culture guy.
I’m going to be straightforward with you. You probably need to listen to the entire statement again instead of picking apart segments of a larger statement in an attempt to validate your limiting thoughts. If you’re going to get out of a tough situation, like quitting a job, you need to own the fact that there are no excuses when it comes to broadening your education to build a way out for yourself. if you want to take ownership in yourself and your actions, my content is for you. If that’s not you, I’m not for you.
started phase 1 today, however it says 8 critical tasks for me?
5 tasks for 75 hard plus 3 additional See this link - it shows the main 5 tasks for 75 hard andyfrisella.com/blogs/articles/what-is-75-hard?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC7HfYv4CKGjPYUPS4E8A_6xpNygF&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI2ZyJx56uiAMV_RGtBh3XuwOgEAAYASAAEgJi9PD_BwE
@@NickTShelton Pheww! Was thinking 8 extra is too many haha! Lets get it brother
@@JordaanW Haha, I feel ya, man! It was confusing to me first, as well (and I've noticed the same response for a lot of other people). I think it's just phrased a little oddly in the program, but I did some deep diving and research on Andy's podcasts and other websites to figure it out. You should be good to go now! Stay hard!
@@NickTShelton awesome stuff! Thank you brother. Day 1 going well. Need to remember to keep on top of this water 💧
My husband has the same Stanley thermos😅It's massive
It’s gets the job done!
Part of my overthinking comes from fear of regretting a decision. So in my mind if I think of all the ways things could go wrong or all the pitfalls before doing it I’m protecting myself, but really it’s just a way to never start. I heard about 75 hard then started the next day, I’m over a week in and I’ve had to start over because of the minute details that aren’t in the original podcast but are on his website, like you can’t break up your 45 min workout or you can’t add anything to the water, but I’m still going. Found your channel because of it. Thanks for the info.
Glad to hear you are starting and continuing on. Keep going. 🫡
Good video. I went from feeling ill about 4 months ago. I started slowing down at work since we haven’t had any projects and I don’t foresee any that would be challenging or fulfilling. Of course due to my slowing down due to health concerns my company started focusing on my performance and put me on a PIP. I’m 49 and don’t have anything lined up yet but I’m resigning tomorrow and I’m starting to feel better already. Wish me luck :)
Good luck, buddy. Get healthy and best wishes to you on your journey. Don't give up on yourself and keep movin' along!
Thank you, this was very helpful.
Thanks for watching - glad you liked it
Thank you so much.
Thank you for watching
This hits home for me lately too… I’ve been reminded a lot that when we become Christian (fairly recent for me), life gets harder in some respects because you’re not making it easy for the devil anymore. You’re a formidable enemy now that you belong to God. I’ve experienced a new level of peace and contentment on some days but also unreal spiritual attacks on other days. I guess I’m worth fighting now 😂 Definitely in continual prayer & journaling to weather the storms. Thanks for sharing!
This is so true. I’ve been told the same thing. “When you grow closer to God, the enemy wants you that much more.” Haha, I like your humor! I do want to remind you though, you’ve always been worth fighting for. Sometimes, it just takes a while for us to realize that being a warrior for the kingdom of God is one of the highest honors we can be blessed to have. Be blessed, my friend! 🫡
I love this… thanks for sharing Nick! So weird I came across your video because I was in the CrossFit space for awhile myself - owned a couple of gyms. Didn’t grow up an athlete like you, but was in the space long enough to identify with it from an athletic and professional level. I started to deal with fatigue and other odd health issues that made me take a step back completely. I miss who I was physically, but I keep telling myself that even though I don’t know who I am or where I’m going, the “good ol days” don’t have to be behind me. I don’t know what’s next, and what level of fitness needs to keep being part of my journey in the future… but either way I really appreciate your perspective. If you can have been at the Games level and still found your way back as a different athlete/member, then maybe there’s a chance I can redefine myself if I go back without feeling like I need to meet standards again. I just figured the temptation to fall back to my old ways and be driven by ego would be too big that I should probably find a new fitness outlet altogether. Anyway, looking forward to checking out your other content!
I appreciate you checking this one out! Having been through the ups and downs after hanging up the competition shoes, it’s helped develop a different perspective. It’s taken me a long time to find purpose in other areas and it’s something I still struggle with in a sense today. I’ve found a lot of purpose in living a life like I would imagine God would want. I really miss the adrenaline I get from high pressure situations in sports, but there are many similarities I’ve found in other areas of life that help that fulfillment. At the end of the day, it’s a work in progress, but my identity can no longer be in worldly things and must be greater than myself. Again, I appreciate you watching and I hope to have given you a perspective you can take with you on your walk.
Now he sleeps under a bridge at night.
Yep. You got it. Good insight.
Quit my job to start my own venture. It's been eye opening as to how much I can grow as a person by putting myself in a new mind set.
Love to see it. Keep growing.
I just started phase one and I will say I enjoy the cold showers right after my workouts
I'd say continue to job hunt as if you don't have a job during your first 90-100 days. It can take weeks or even months for an employer to respond to your application whereas it can only take a few days to determine if you can see yourself in your current role on day 91 or 101.
Very helpful video. I finished 75 hard a week ago and starting phase 1 in 2 days. Much appreciated. 👍
Congrats on the finish Kirk! Keep that momentum rolling!
Self pity and using it as a manipulation
Yep, that’s a victim mentality
Thank you
Thank you for watching
On day 2. Tried last year and failed, but I feel that I'm ready and capable this time around.
You are capable. Keep going.
I wonder, are North Americans aware that very little of the rest of the world, apart from maybe parts of Africa, have this view of Christianity. Most of the world is not evangelical and never speaks of spiritual warfare - it’s a thing that existed in Europe with the puritans and found itself in America with the pilgrims at which point it died out in Europe. There has been a minor revival but most of the world feels very uneasy with evangelicalism. In a secular society religion is a private matter for families and private time - not something to declare in schools and elections.
Watch CGP Grey’s excellent video on yearly themes. 😍
Just watched it - solid video
Just quit my job to start social media and other side business ventures! I’m tired of not living my life how I want to. Good luck to everyone out there on a similar journey! You’ve got this 💪🏽
Proud of you for taking a huge step! Keep going! 🫡
In in day one . I did it 2 years ago and loved it. Doing it again.
Get after it - hope you're still rockin' and rollin'

I quit my job in oct 2022. Started actively applying again in spring 2023. Still working on finding a job and supporting myself through doordash/uber eats/etc but still covering my bills and chuggin along 👍
Keep up the good fight, Miles. Do what you gotta do to get where you wanna go. It may not seem clear at the moment, but you'll be right where you need to be if you keep pressing on.
@NickTShelton I will say regardless of being mostly broke most of the time my life is more at peace regardless and I never once regretted my choice. Always remain positive and be grateful for the things you do have and blessings will come 🙏
@@mileswestmoreland5515peace gives you clarity and clarity will take you far. 🙏🏼🫡
I got a divorce after 42 years. I've been on my own for little over year. I'm at a lost I dont even know what I like to eat or cook. I've been taking care of someone else that I don't know who I am any more
I hate to hear that you're going through it right now. Stay on it though, things get better. Keep working toward learning more about yourself. Be patient through this process, as painful as it is. You'll come out the other side a brand new person. Keep going.
@NickTShelton thank you so much. I've learning to take it slow. It took 42 years to get here it's going to take longer than a year to get better. Thank you.
@@Oma4317 Love the mindset - it's not overnight, but it's on the horizon.
Nick, I appreciate you and this video you have created.
Thanks, Adam - I appreciate you, my friend.
@NickTShelton thanks Nick but just knowing I am not alone and the clarity of thought in which you presented this information wss helpful.
Absolutely and utterly goldmine of a video. So much value and insight gained here, I'm honestly surprised and shocked that you only have 2.62k subscribers and this video only had 3.4k views. When I was about to finish the video, I was expecting to see millions of views from a really large youtuber judging by the quality of this video, but no it caught me off guard. Great work Nick, I really love this topic and I hate how it's so unspoken of and not very talked about these days. It's a mindset I also just recently discovered that I had and that I've been applying this "Toxic" champion mindset into various aspects of my own life (Like work, sports, some forms and aspects of business) and just all around getting used to others not liking me due to me utterly and absolutely wanting to win at all costs and mercilessly dominating my competition. God bless you brother. 🔥
Thanks for the kind words, Patrick. It is much appreciated. It's a tough mindset for the masses to understand and it's what makes high performers reach heights others can't imagine. Please share it with others you feel can relate. Keep up the work, man. You aren't finished yet. God bless you, my friend.
@@NickTShelton Haha yeah man of course, it's definitely a video I need to make and talk about myself Gotta give back and just share my story, give value, and hopefully try and inspire others while educating them on this very unspoken mentality. It's a very powerful one if used correctly, but it's one of those mindsets that you have to go all in on and fully commit to, otherwise you end up chasing 2 rabbits ya know? Really makes me wonder and ask: "Would you rather be feared or loved? If you couldn't be both?" A very ruthless mindset, but sometimes it's one of the only ways to win
I was always told getting a college degree will open more opportunities! Well, yeah sure, but they are shit jobs that require hard work, debt, and a piece of paper that states, yes, I can do this shit job that a HS graduate or dropout could do.
Yeah… it’s an interesting system. At one point, having a degree got you in the door to a lot of opportunities that weren’t available, especially financially. Now, there are people with degrees that make less than someone that dropped out of high school. The career landscape has changed but we are slow to change our minds to keep up. In recent years, people have pursued different avenues for education but we are still far away from that being the norm.
Nice guys often use covert contracts, expecting unspoken agreements to be reciprocated. True kindness doesn't come with strings attached. Be direct and genuine in your intentions!
Love that - you’re exactly right, Curt. We need more “real” people.
Love it
I appreciate that

nice content
I appreciate it Leo
Nice video- something I’ve been thinking about - I started on Feb 1 finished 75 hard and immediately began phase 1 done with phase 1 now- if I start phase 2 in 30 days it will put me done with it before end of July - leaving me August September October November and December - 5 full months before I can start phase 3 to finish for the year- seems a bit stretched out .. any thoughts?
Personally, I would give yourself a break in between. Part of the challenge in 75 hard is to build the muscle of getting knocked off track and being able to show back up. It’s good practice to give yourself some time after 75 Hard and then pick back up again for Phase 1
Great content brother👌 Is there anyway i could get your email? Would love your send you a proposal!
Thanks man - you can DM me @nicktshelton on IG or reach out through the about section on my channel
@@NickTShelton Just sent you a dm brother! please have a check and let me know
I love how vulnerable you are in this video! Having these discussions out loud with others helps us work through difficult seasons :)
I appreciate that, man!
Great video, Nick. Best one yet.
Thanks a lot, I appreciate that.
First time here! I was not expecting that to happen to your mentor friend 😢. Beautiful how through that circumstance you found The Way, Truth & Light 🙏🏿.
Thanks for watching! Yeah, I’m forever grateful for him as he taught me a lot, but ultimately led me to where I needed to be most.
My Dream is to run at marathons but I have a lot of work to do to get there. Right now, my joints are screaming at walking which I do at 35 minutes per day as I live in the Caribbean and I travel via public commute and walking. But I notice a lot of videos where they are saying the ideal way to get back in shape over 50 is doing strength training, I would love to give that a shot someday. But share with us as best as possible, I could use a few tips from it as I get on this journey. Awesome video.
Thanks for watching, Viv. I’m pumped to hear about your dream of running marathons! Sounds like you are putting in some work. You are correct, strength is king as we get older. Don’t fear the weight room. I know it can be intimidating but that may be your ticket to joint healthy, especially if you don’t have a lot of experience lifting weights. Just make sure you have proper form and allow yourself time to build up to heavier weights. I’ll for sure share some gym tips in future videos. I’ve been in the fitness world for over 20 years and coaching for 12 years, I’ve just never made too much content on that side of things.
@@NickTShelton : Thank you. Looking forward to seeing many more.
I Lost my mum in 2022. Talk about anger and hate, that's what I felt when it came to hearing about prayer and God. She would read her bible and pray every night before bed as her way of worshipping him, and I could not understand why he had to take her from me and even to this day I still don't understand. But I found myself running back to him since last year, praying and listening to songs that make me feel at peace spiritually. when I am going through my worst and even happiest moments, I would say to myself, I couldn't do this or get through this without you (God). So Thank you, this is an Amazing video.
I’m sorry to hear about your mother - I hope you are finding some peace. We are imperfect beings and those feelings are so common in our journey, unfortunately. I’ve had them more times than I can count. The anger, hate, confusion, doubt, etc. all of the above. It’s hard for us to understand this experience we live in. It’s really beyond comprehension sometimes. The only thing I’ve found immense peace and purpose in is following Christ, so as long as I keep that as my focus, life seems to make more sense. Keep going on your journey. You can do all things through Him.
@@NickTShelton : Thank you, your word of advice means a lot to me.
Loving this Spiritual direction. Keep it up, the world needs to hear the Good news.
Thank you - it’s time the world gets going in the right direction.
I hope this video gets millions of views, bc it's on point !!
I appreciate you fam!
Going to watch this full video now
I appreciate ya, Praveen
Great work on the thumbnail brother. And I’m with you. Matrix programming. 😢. When they seek God & Jesus their minds will return
I appreciate you, Malachite! You're right - That's the only place we can find clarity.
Facts! Everything you said, and add in lack of confidence/trust in our self. It's easy to get lost in the group. And often asking questions is shunned so we just comform then the need and wanting to belong to a group. As we go everything is sped up. We forget to slow down. Our attention span is so is so short. And we make way more decisions during a day than past generations. It's crazy. Good video
Man, Jerrell - you bring up some solid points. Everything is fast, even our decisions. Seems good on the surface because you can do more, but when you lose that critical thought, things go downhill real fast. I appreciate you, J!
Omg! I remember when you started your YT channel about 3 yes ago!. I subscribed because I KNEW you'd do great and wanted to witness your journey. Here you are, with a super successful channel. Great job!!!!!!
Wow, thanks so much for that, Rosy! I appreciate you coming along for the journey as well as the support. I’m still at it. :) Much appreciated. 🙏🏼
