Very well put ou and honest. As immigrants we are so thirsty looking for Friends, relationships and stability that it's just so overwhelming sometimes. The only thing That helps is discipline ans routine and it takes motivation and courage. You sure have a lot Joshua ❤
Thank you Joshua for making this video. I too do like useless things to comfort myself later which I regret. Seeing you doing lot of things inspiring me to do more. Learning a lot from you. Hands down 🙌🏻🎉
Hey Josh. Vanakkam from TN India. I am a recent subscriber to your channel. I like watching your videos, especially on learning new languages. All the best to you. Keep up the great work😊
As amazing as organisation and knowledge management systems can be- they also streamline us in a way where we forget to just "be". Just being is a luxury now, mainly b/c of the capitalistic 9-5 culture. The culture everywhere makes people feel like they're missing out and not "achieving" what they should. The journey isn't prioritized anymore, the world, employers, and even potential matches just see "achievements". Human worth is being defined by a world where there is constant information overload. No wonder stress is making people unwell and there's a link with autoimmune diseases as well. A loved one tells me, that extra hour of work that is physically killing you is not worth your health. But then again, very few have that privilege and some have to sacrifice their well-being just to put food on the table. The "systems" we live in are not compatible for human beings. Also late 20s are not the end of the world, and if anything, I feel like most of my strength and physical fitness gains are in my 30s b/c I have a more stable idea of where my strengths and weaknesses lie. It's a great time to experiment and have fun learning where your bodily strengths lie. I do not follow trends but i focus on improving my existing strengths and working on my weaknesses. Lower body was alwats my strength but after a foot injury, i learned the value of investing in my upper body and training it to be better, not perfect- just better.
I am thinking of coming France for phd when I will be 23-24. I am 17 (in 12th) right know I know I might be thinking of too far in future but yeah I searched out most of the countries and thought either it's France or Switzerland. What do you think about phd in France?
Your professor,🤦🏿♂️Why would he do that, what is that student going to eat, being a student is expensive. Try to slow down, eat, sleep & drink water and plan, plan etc. I prioritize eating, sleeping and water. Without any of that I can't think.
Hi joshua , following you from so long , I am in my 20s and planning to move to france for mim in around my mid 20s . Plz make a video what should be done in these years and how to excel it to make best move in france . Like what 3rd year students or passed out student should do to excel in theirs future in france ❤❤
Hey man, do check out the 'getting to know yourself' playlist on my channel. That's a great place to start. I would : 1. Get to know myself - What are my strengths, what kind of work do I not enjoy? 2. Find out jobs that would satisfy that definition 3. Find the institutions who can take you there (MiM in France, work visa, ... ) Good luck man! Tell me how it goes
Man, I am in my extreme late 20s, moving to Paris this fall for my MSc, changing domains, very anxious about starting a new life in a new country with an absolutely different culture I'll have to adapt to and integrate with, and everything you said, each and every thing regarding the changes we go through in our late 20s, is so damn true, this video was like a reality check I needed man. I think I'll keep coming back to this video time and again man, thank you so much Josh! Hope to catch up with you in Paris someday.
Hey thanks for penning this down man. It’s going to be a challenging change, but you’re going to work through the right problems early on in your life as a foreigner here, as you don’t have the comfort of home. In time you will emerge proud of yourself and happy for having taken it head on🔥
Subscribed! I am in my 50s now so I have a few things to say too! I don’t have regular TV, but stick to films 2-3 times a week, sometimes but not always related to language learning. Also this idea that we need to be 24/7 productive is something we need to loose. In Italian “il dolce far niente” in Bosnia “ ćejf”.
Tbh very honest i feel the same way but unable to process it with my insight 😢communication i think this is one of the most human video abt life scenarios in youtube
We all can agree tbh being in the late 20s!!! Haha!! Hey Joshua I was wondering is it possible to meet-up in person, can schedule a meet or something!!! Or if you can share an email Id would be perfect!!!

Wow. Fantastic storytelling, editing and everything Joshua. More power to you.
Thanks a ton!

You're spot on when you say "We forget to just be"
Thanks for sharing!

That’s me Josh , thanks for the video haha

I'm in the last leg of my 20s and in India. I can relate to 90% of the things mentioned.
Thanks man Adhoksh!
Hey Joshua, what's the kanban software you're using to organise everything?
I use Notion to organise my work :)
Your professor,🤦🏿♂️Why would he do that, what is that student going to eat, being a student is expensive.
Try to slow down, eat, sleep & drink water and plan, plan etc.
I prioritize eating, sleeping and water.
Without any of that I can't think.
Such a great video for former teenager 🤡
Glad it speaks to you !
Need a whole new video on how not to be 'Meaninglessly Productive' :(
Haha that's really a great title!

Hey there.....amazing video, watching from Tokyo, your video showed up as i was researching about EDHEC ...thank you and keep it up Josh.
It reminds me of the one conversation I had with you @hotbreads in early April.. its so refreshing to see some qualitative content like this! :))
Man, I am in my extreme late 20s, moving to Paris this fall for my MSc, changing domains, very anxious about starting a new life in a new country with an absolutely different culture I'll have to adapt to and integrate with, and everything you said, each and every thing regarding the changes we go through in our late 20s, is so damn true, this video was like a reality check I needed man.

Bro this is one of the valid content for young adults to built their future
Thanks bro

I completely agree! we should disconnect properly from work
Thank you so much Joshua! very informative and cool video!
Tbh very honest i feel the same way but unable to process it with my insight 😢communication i think this is one of the most human video abt life scenarios in youtube
Man this video is why I make videos, I’m so glad it helps you.
Are you also in France ?
We all can agree tbh being in the late 20s!!! Haha!! Hey Joshua I was wondering is it possible to meet-up in person, can schedule a meet or something!!! Or if you can share an email Id would be perfect!!!
Hello! I organised one earlier this year, but it's been a while since I planned a meetup, reach out via instagram!
3:18 "we choose to stop doing important stuff to prioritise meaningless tasks" - Some life coach level truth bomb right there!!
ThankYou ❤️
I am in my early 20s 😅 don't know what will happen in future taking some tips from your videos
Work hard and seek creative people, you've got this!
This is amazingly relatable. The editing and storytelling is on point!
Thank you so much!
This is highly relatable. Btw just noticed the "Balata" logo - it's sleek 🚀
The one from the website?
No, I mean the watermark logo at the bottom of the video @@JoshuaBalata
Thanks :)
Stylé ta nouvelle vidéo frérot
Merci bro!
Don't they use English?
