    Focus inverted is distraction. Distraction inverted is focus.
    Environment minus distraction = focus.

    I love how Sam sort of confirms and co-signs all the stuff that we all intuitively know. His videos are a good reminder that our most valuable asset is FOCUS. Keep it up, amigo!!

    That was so funny, when you were talking about putting your desk in a room you want to be in, I thought oh I remember when I had my stand up desk in the laundry room as it was the only room unoccupied in my apartment at the time. Then you mentioned the guy with the stand up desk in his laundry room. Oh man! lol! So funny as that could only have been me, although I made $10k/month in that room I’m glad to say I’ve upgraded to a room I want to be in with a nice view and lots of “natural light”

    This one is simple but if you execute it properly, it will turn you into a man-machine!

    Awesome - I've known this for a long time as intuition. Always got weird looks from people when they heard about it. Good to hear it from you!
    We've taken it to an extreme now as I am currently in Tasmania an hour away from the city on a farm with all that we have is Internet connection, 2 desks, 2 large whiteboards and workout equipment.(+ofcourse all living essentials) Once a week we go to town to get food and make sure to buy only healthy stuff so when we are back there is no way we will drive an hour to get a snack.
    We have been traveling for the last 3 years eating and loving life, time to get back in shape and double down on our business! Thanks @sam you inspired me to be better!

    Re-arranging my apartment was something I hadn’t considered, but looking forward to seeing how much it helps.

    I love it! The idea of becoming an optimal functioning human-machine... Yes! And, I appreciate how you how you break things down into their simplest elements, so that, virtually, "anyone" can do it. All you've got to do is to "t-a-k-e a-c-t-i-o-n"; something, I think, many people struggle with. Thank you, Sam, for sharing your insights so freely!

    hey Sam, I agree with you and I would like to add, who needs to eliminate the distractions from his environment will never make progress, he commits himself to waste time in an action that should not be made necessary.
    Distraction should not even exist in the hungry's mind.

    I must admit I was very sceptical of Sam at the beginning. I even thought that the house that he shows on his videos is not actually his. I must admit now I enjoy his videos and that he's legit. I have already watched tens of his videos and some of them are among my favourite ones.
    Thanks!

  • @jasleelosmith

    Thank you Sam, I knew I had some distractions that were pulling away from whats been keeping me productive,includinf getting through the Accelerator course. I guess I've felt because I have 2 kids, there are some things 'I can't' get rid of which I know now, is just an excuse. I've decided to deactivate my Facebook page from today, and I'm going to move my phone into the lounge room the same way you're suggesting. I don't watch much TV like my family does, but I think I'm going to work on at least illimating the amount of time they're switched on to influence better habits in the home for my husband and my sons. Thank you again. 😊😊

    Amazing video. I would add to implement "The One Thing" in your daily planning. Basically deciding which one thing is making all other things unnecessary - your core focus. Spend most of your time on this one and you are bound to win. Also, really missing your content Sam.

    Kia Ora Sam! many thanks
    I don't how you do it!
    you are sooo on point with every topic on every video it blows my mind ... why?
    because you say the things about what we already know & understand
    in a new light, that makes it ultra clear
    e.g *Default=Path of Least Resistance*
    I keep reminding to myself to make certain productive activities as a *Default*
    But, I shld make them with *Paths of Least Resistance too! duh*
    then that Fitness Rule applies to everything too. just few simple processes.
    Good Sleep. Eat Well. Move More
    are just plain Healthy
    so, we can apply *"Healthy"* to everything else too!

    A big part in peoples psychology is as well, 'the fear of missing out'. They need to be on this one party or that meeting with friends although nothings gonna happen there anyway.. As well as pain preventing.. rather being sucessfully unsucessful than feeling a little pain by failing and failing... And failing again.. until you' ve finally learned that new skill you've wanted to learn or etc... It's as Sam says doing it consistent days, months and years is it what lets you master it.

    Hey Sam. Thank you for this incredible video, I love your content. I was wondering what would you suggest to the people, who want to become successful in business but also are very artistic. It seems impossible for me to create just one product when you r previously been in a creative world that always requires a lot of ideas for one project. Also, how do you define value in art (music, film, fashion etc) in general ? I feel like it’s getting more difficult to make good cash flow being an artist unless you r an employee. Would love to know your thoughts on this topic. Thank you.
