I have been guilty of this many times in my life and am definitely willing to let go of this bad habit as it has landed me in trouble many many times. It's good to think big in life but only doing small things towards that will help the cause otherwise it will be frustrating all along the way.
Im not even joking, Kurzgesagt explains everything so strategically and logically, and really places the same idea in one's mind which teachers and etc. have been trying for so long. I can't believe how motivated I am currently to also leave all my bad habits.
Don't try to quit all of them at once! That motivation will run out really fast. Instead, try to pick the most important one, the one that will have the most impact on your life if you leave it behind. Start there, see what works for you, then you can keep going down the list :)
I would add 2 things to this: 1. Start with one change at the time. Life is short but it's easier to start small, drastic change will make things worse 2. Regarding bad habits - like checking reddit/insta/anything - remember that you stand against whole teams that design this to be more time consuming, so try to avoid it but be understanding for yourself
I am pretty good at stopping bad habits but It started as a kid. I didn't like that I went on fb all the time as it was just full of garbage and now I am not on any social media and I don't watch the news. but it was really easy. The hard part is people are always asking me, whats my snap, insta or fb.
@@zadesirius lol, im Reading/learning about science and history on Reddit.(for example) Whats bad about that, im not wasting time on some troll useless threads. Also I found Great info about IT/programming that helped me when I was learning it.
How is it even possible that we don't see our brain as an obstacle yet? Something to be modelled, at will, by force? The fact that something other than purely conscious decisions may have an impact on your own behavior can't be anything but a form of self-denial.
this can easily be reframed as telling yourself: "just do something". that's something I like to tell myself at least instead of trying to motivate myself and it seems to help
I do tend to think about stuff too much and that convinces me of reasons not to do it. But "Just do it" doesn't always help either. What I like is when he said is to realise that it's not that big of a deal. If you can't shut up your brain the best thing is to convince yourself that it's not the end of the world
It's important to point out that bragging about how good you think you've done can tumble the card house you've build. If you feel better with what you've done, better keep it for your self and be happy about it.
It almost made me cry when you guys said we don't need to buy anything to change our lives. We're so used to ads bombarding us with "YOU NEED THIS!!" or "DON'T MISS OUT!!!" that it almost feels too good to be true when we see authentic and healthy advertising. We desperately need more of this, much, much more!!
But you need to buy it, you need a lot of money to have good food, good supporting books, pay for internet, pay for music that inspires you or helps you move for exercises or housework, you need to pay for everything even water, that's what makes life monotonous pointless and boring, the main reason why as humans we are worth it and we don't mind dying young, it is the best option
@@xiebunlian You can make good meals out of rice/quinoa/pasta, beans/lentils, frozen/canned veggies, and spices-all cheap options for food (unless you're trying to make something with saffron or pine nuts). Buy meats when they are on sale. Books can be rented from the library, as can the internet. There are free wifi hotspots all around the city. Music can be streamed for free and also rented from the library. Yes, it's unfortunate that utilities cost money, but life doesn't have to be as expensive if you're willing to find better and cheaper ways of doing things. Just takes a little more effort than paying higher prices for near-instant results.
Nice ideas. Here are my four to add: 1. Remove boundaries to starting: if you're want to practise guitar more then leave it out and plugged in. Make it so you can just walk past, play for 5 mins then get on with something else. It has to be as easy as possible. 2. Become aware of the things that stop you - sometimes quite small random things, like the guitar is always out of tune (so buy a tuner), or the only time you get to practise everyone is already in bed (so use some headphones) or it's difficult to hold the guitar on your bed (so find a good chair and move it next to your amp) 3. Remove pressure - if you're doing it to be famous then you're always going to feel the pressure to achieve. You've got to do it primarily because you love it. 4. and this is key for me - Acknowledge you only have limited energy. It can feel like if you have 5 free hours then you can do one hour of guitar practise, an hour of exercise, an hour to read your book, an hour to cook, etc. But in reality each activity has not only a physical cost, but also a mental load. Acknowledge the mental load, then free yourself of it. If you have a stressful job then you probably won't do your hobby - the job has taken all your mental load and that is why you're watching Netflix for 5 hours. 5. You do not have to change the world. It's ok, there are already plenty of authors, musicians, entertainers, photographers, etc. You can just do this for fun. Just honestly and seriously, start from the position that the world does not need you to do this thing, and will not care if you never do it. And now just do it anyway - do it for yourself.
Regarding #4 if you take 10-20 naps or Meditations in-between what you are trying yo learn and during that time you think about your mistakes and how to do better and then imagine you doing it properly you will return with more energy without stopping your practice. Resurce the difference between visualization vs imagination and look up catastrophic thinking.
This reminds me of a quote that has stuck with me "Most people when given a time machine would go back and change something small expecting a big effect but when faced with a similarly small decision in their everyday life they think it will have no effect on their future"
The thing is, for any given small action to have a big impact, it is extremely rare, yes, turning left or right could impact your whole life, but that doesn't happen often. Time travelers knows exactly which moment it is because they've experienced the other option already and traced it back to that one point, but we now in the present don't know, and often it isn't worth it to do the extra thing just because it might impact your life one day.
Pretty accurate. I got into exercise by just automatically driving to the gym after work. Then I wouldn't let myself leave until I went in and did at least one exercise. Then afterwards, I was always like "well, I've already started, and I'd look silly if I left now... I may as well finish the whole workout". It still surprises me how effective that strategy was for me. It might not work for everyone, but I encourage giving it a try if you want to exercise regularly. And he's right. The first few weeks were miserable. Now, not getting my scheduled exercise in is miserable. The human brain is amazing.
@@vichentez you should also pay for whole 3 or 6 months in the gym so you'll feel forced to go to not waste your money, if you pay just 1 month its highly likely you won't pay for the next month and leave it
Something that worked for me too was listening to an audio book at the gym, but I could ONLY listen to it there! So if I wanted to know what happened next in the story... I had to go to the gym! I also found setting a realistic goal then a bonus goal helped... a bit of brain trickery there but ... basically I'd love to go 3x a week! But making that my goal lead to a lot of "failure" feelings if I only went 2x.... so I adjusted my goal to be 2x so I always meet it, and 3x is a bonus! HUMAN BRAINS man.... so crazy XD
@@rhqqn446fjnnbbc tbh even pay or become the member of gym still has a chance of failure, depends on the person, i've read some ppl on the internet said it, so we really need additional tricks, i guess
One year after this video, I have actually started changing myself (started about 2 months ago) it's not a significant amount of change but it definitely it noticeable! and I am super proud of myself. Before I used to just sit around all day browsing youtube and reddit and discord and literally doing nothing. Now I'm actually doing my work on time and started studying a few days before exams. Can't wait to work hard and get even better!
These are my two mottos: -Fear kills future -Done is better than perfect And just yesterday night I said "I need another terse motto for my procrastination" and then saw this video. "Change is a direction, not a destination" is my third motto now.
@@The_Good_Captain It depends. Don't just blindly reach out and help everyone you see because that is a recipe for stretching yourself out. However there is sometimes in this world a time where a person close to you loses a bit of themselves for one reason or another. And that person will lose the will to live or the motivation to better themselves. If you truly care for this person it is your duty to reach out and give that your best effort to help them within your own means. Do not ever give more than you are comfortable with and if you have to push past that barrier at times make sure to find the time to set boundaries and establish communication about where those boundaries are with the person in question. Unfortunately yes you may start to see a pattern where this person you care about is blowing past your patience and then you may start to lose the ability to care. They may continually ask too much and go past the boundaries. And in these cases it may be a good time to reassess if the person you care about requires more help from an outside source. Another friend or family member maybe. And if in the end this person really can't help themselves like you first thought and has evidenced to hurt others and themselves without improvement and maybe even has slid backwards over time. perhaps that is the time to have an intervention to let them know explicitly where there problems are and how they negatively affecting others. You can provide avenues for help like therapists in the area or support groups. But then, With effort and communication and understanding you can responsibly cut them out of your life until they help themselves. Because then you will at least communicated the tools to help them fish for themselves. This is only if you initially believe in them and you believe in the long-term friendship or relationship. It truly is up to discretion but sometimes it is necessary to pull from within to help the ones we love. But we always have to do it responsibly.
That first one makes me feel a lot. I can see how I have been living the past 12 years in fear from trauma. Fear of other people. Loved ones did terrible things to me, multiple different loved ones, and it's been very difficult to find strangers that want to become more than strangers and help support me.
I love how Kurzgesagt can change up their content to help people out with their goals by breaking down the science behind the brain’s patterns when it comes to triggers and habits, then offering genuine helpful advice on how to achieve our goals effectively. Like they’ve mentioned, in order to change is by making little goals and little changes because your progress will accumulate over time through consistency. Just experiment and find out what works for you since it’s different with everyone. This is a really nice video.
I'm sure you actually watched the video and definitely didn't read other people's comments to see the popular opinion and then summarise it to get lots of likes instead of posting an original comment
I'm a French nurse, specialise in addiction. For the last month I've been explaining my patient how habits works thanks to your simple but yet very effective video.... I already saw some radical changes in my patient behaviour... Thanks for that, so much. Cant' wait for the french translation so that all my patient can see and understand it... And hopefully change for the best. Thanks Kurzgesagt for the years of fun fact and serious question about life and univers. You guys are the best!
I just went through one of my worst depressive moment of my life, and I started going to they gym. I started going 30 minutes, now my brain build the habit to go 1 hour 4 times per week. You need to start slowly! Thanks for this video, it’s amazing and it touches my heart.❤️
My man is geniunely pouring his emotions and self-positivit and people are like; WE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
2 роки тому+5
Even 30 minutes to start with is so hard for me. Like i can imagine i start working out with 2 minutes. U think this is enough for working out to develop a habit?
I've decided to change some habits a couple weeks ago. At first it was "easy" but lately I've been feeling like it's not enough and my therapists keep telling me to not rush. Now I understand it better, so thank you a ton!
I live an unhealthy lifestyle. (I turn my days and nights around, don't go outside, don't brush my teeth, etc.). I try to take action but always fail on the second day. And until today, I was at a loss. Then, as usual, I was browsing UA-cam and found this video, watched it right away, and right after that, I wrote down a few things I wanted to make into habits. (Brush your teeth, exercise, etc.). Then, an hour later, I started doing one of those things. Then, to my surprise, I accomplished everything I had written on the list, even though I thought that if I could do even one of those things, I would have done well. I was amazed. It was so easy that it was ridiculous that I kept worrying about it. ...... I need to repeat it many more times to make it a habit, but I believe I can do it this time. Thanks, kurzgesagt! (I use translation software)
The timing couldn't have been more perfect. I'm in the process of changing how I live and do things and this video is going to be of big help. Thanks Kurzgesagt for everything.
If you want to know more about how to create good habits and break bad ones, I recommend you read Atomic Habits by James Clear. This book helped me tremendously in understanding how to develop new habits and break old ones. It's really fun to read, if you are interested in the topic :)
Me too I’m joining the construction laborers union. On the 20th I’m going to a week long training session where they would put me in various physical tests to test my endurance and strength since it’s very important to have both of those in this field. Im doing this as a 19 year old. I have to be in my best shape to do rigorous and long inducing work which I’m familiar with. Shifts will be 10-12 hours on average. Dropped out of college to start with a 28/hr starting pay with benefits as an apprentice which is really good and one of the reasons why I dropped out of school. I do plan on joining college again but once I’ve gotten my fair share of cash on hand I hate the idea of having student debt. I guess this is the next step in my life and I wish anyone else good luck in whatever they are planning to do..
I’ve been dealing with depression for a long time and I’ve struggled a lot the past few years. I always seem to fall out of my habits because I put too much pressure on myself to be perfect from the beginning. Small steps are still steps, change doesn’t happen over night. Great to see all the positive comments! It’s nice to know I’m not alone
You're not alone! Alot of people feel the same! But we always gotta remember that if we want to change, we have to change gradually. Nothing becomes successful/is acheived overnight!
no worry.everyone is dealing with depression. it's just how they face it different. how many people on earth now feel honestly from their own heart " i will never swap my life with anyone". we are all struggling thinking we can be more. some self blaming become depression, some blame other to justify their situation it end up hurting others. only very2 small ammount suceed on it. lets not overthinking, and just start focusing on the small steps
I feel you. I've been struggling with depression for about 11-12 years now. I have very similar experiences with habits as you do. Especially when it comes to hobbies. I have a graphics tablet for drawing, as well as an expensive digital piano just sitting around collecting dust because I feel like I' m unable to change. I just hope that my move and my (belated) start in college in a few months can help me at least a little bit in changing. Best to you friend! Hope it gets better.
This sounds really familiar. I almost always overperformed until last year I completely broke and was diagnozed with anxiety dissorder and alarmingly bad deppression. I am now much better but like the video said change happens in small steps you can control. And you should be happy about them even if they seem small at first. Use all the time you need and be happy about the small things and when things are tough ask people around you for support as most of us are eager to help as we all have faced something that has been hard or taxing. Most of us want other people to succeed too and its as painful to experience those things yourself as it is to watch someone face their demons and challenges. Keep up people and dont let those setbacks slow you too much. Take your time and enjoy the little things this live has to offer. If you read all of this I wish a awesome day and to have the power to carry on. You are awesome always remember that.
There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.
I have ADHD, so simple things like getting in the shower or making breakfast feel like a chore. I tricked myself into doing this stuff because I put music when I shower, so simply by opening the Spotify app I "trigger" the shower response, and I put video essays when I cook. So not only do I have the stimulation I need to not get distracted, but I also started looking forward to this stuff! I had no idea I could apply this stuff to other things, or that it was a known process. I wonder how I can implement it in more aspects of my life.
I have adhd also and cooking and cleaning with videos or podcast is helpful for me. Unfortunately these things are avaible around the clock. It used to be more easy, when I had a special time when special radio program was broadcasted, and I knew have had 1hour to clean my bathroom. Having it avaible around the clock does also include an option to procrastinate and/or listen in a comfy place 😕
I also have ADHD and do the same thing when I'm working or cooking or cleaning. I've gotten used to it, to the point where watching UA-cam by itself seems too boring. I still have weeks where I don't get anything done (when I'm really in a slump, UA-cam or audiobooks aren't enough to motivate me) so it's not a perfect system, but it helps.
@SkyCommision personally I think that it means the jungle regrows faster and you never quite remember if this was exactly the same path you took as before. I lose habits disturbingly fast if I've for instance been sick for a week and unable to do things as usual. Which is why I started to try to write down the "algorithm" for different habits so that when I forget I can look it up, but I lost a lot of really great habits when I moved to a very distressing situation plus I lost that computer, so now that I'm finally in a better position I have to almost start from scratch :( My memory used to be way better before a year when I had extreme thyroid issues without support from the GP at that place, but I still always temporarily forgot stuff because I constantly had to keep way too much stuff in my active memory (like finding a tan hay straw in a hay stack full of straws of different shades of color)
"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." - The Living God For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty. That no flesh should glory in his presence.
Oh, hey! Just a heads up - That quote was not said by the Greek philosopher, Socrates. It was said by a character named Socrates from a book called "Way of the Peaceful Warrior," written by Dan Millman (former gymnast).
“Change is a direction not a destination” I love this mentality. For me it means I don’t have to judge myself for failure as long as I continue on the path. And that its about the decision to change and not just the results! I love it
The amount of joy that sparked within me when he mentioned waiting for civilizations next turn to start is unexplainable. It was such an unexpected niche reference! Videos like this are so well made they deserve more than just a like and comment.
Not trying to take away from the joy you experienced, but Civ is not a niche reference. More than 50M copies have been sold over the history of the franchise.
@@pedrosorio9 Not trying to take away from the joy you experienced, but the total for unique buyers would be like 30M people max because people don't just buy one game in a series if they like the series. So that number is like 0.4% of the world's population, which seems pretty niche to me.
One day I was stoned out of the mind during pandemic and this scene played on the laptop, I broke down and cried for around 5 min. I was in similar situation to Bojack but when the runner says that, you understand why he says that and the difficulty of doing it every day,which is the hardest part. I can do any new activity for a week or two but after I lose my focus
I absolutely love the production of Kurzgesagt videos but the compilation of ideas here is very similar to a ‘self-help’ book called The Atomic Habit. This makes sense though since they’ll both be based on the same neuroscience and psychology research.
Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
she's a known advisor. I actually did look her up curiously and went through her credentials on her webbsite... Top-notch! I wrote her an email, hopefully she's accepting new intakes.
I would add something that I’m trying to apply to myself : Don’t look up at the mountain, but look rather down you path calmely. And forget about time. You will do this, no matter how long, how far, how hard it seems to be, at first.
@@donx12 enjoy the view of the problems building up in front of you? lol in all seriousness, you can only enjoy sightseeing the mountains only when you have a good place to look at them.
The whole video was about "just using your free will harder" he just says it in 5 slightly different ways getting more and more condescending as he goes, been a fan of the channel for many years but they have a very simple approach to most of their videos.
@@SkFan5 he did. but people with loser midset will twist words and do everything in their power to convince themselfs that being a loser is the only way to go and winners are just born that way
@@jakelake-u1q that is 100% the mindset of people like that guy above, I know that because I've been through that stage once in my life even though I don't think winners are born to be winners, I can feel that I'm just making up excuses to justify myself being lazy
I love that this video doesn’t paint the toddler as the villain, it’s a part of you just like anything else, and you need to learn to work with it, not against it, if you want to see change :)
This is the first video that has ever acknowledged that it can take hundreds of days to develop a solid habit - as someone who always heard ‘two weeks to make a habit!’ from videos and continually failed somewhere not far after that point, this gives me something I never had before… understanding and hope. ❤
Yeah you shouldn't think "30 days and then i stop doing what i want to do" Think "30 days and maybe it will feel easier to do those things but i will still keep doing them no matter what"
"Change is a direction, not a destination." Perfect mantra for self improvement! I'm nearing 40, and realizing I've been stuck in a whole lot of bad habits, and feeling like, "well, that's just who I am now." Thanks for helping me realize it's never too late to change.
I am going through a big change in my life. I am 1st time living away alone from my parents and friends for studies, which is very scary and depressing. This video can't be posted at better time then this for me...
*I wasn't financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone's that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.*
Investing in many sources of income that are independent of government paychecks is the prudent thing that everyone should be thinking about right now, especially given the global economic crisis. Stocks, forex, and digital currencies are still good investments at this time.
Sure, investing is essential for maintaining your financial stability, but making any kind of legitimate investment without the correct advice of a professional can result in a significant loss as well.
It's really not easy trading this market. I read a lot of books, tried to study, watch some tutorial videos, did a little demo before funding my account and I still lost a lot. The financial market could be very tricky
I also keep seeing lot's of people testifying about how they make money investing in Stock, Forex and Bitcoin and I wonder why I keep loosing. Can anyone help me out or at least advice me on what to do.
4:22 "Habits are executed by an impulsive toddler" The comparison is true because just like Toddlers. Habits and Impulses can be tricked. An example of this is me saying "later" to my impulse instead of saying "no". The outright rejection will make The Toddler throw a tantrum in my brain. But stalling for time will eventually make The Toddler forget about the things it wanted to move on to other things that it also wanted so suddenly.
The hard part isn't starting a new habit - the hard part is dealing with everyday stresses that frustrate you and you fall back into the same habit that the everyday stresses probably turned you on to. Like comfort food stress eating. It's hard when you deal with the stresses day after day and you have few options to help you deal with them, and trying a new habit more often than nots put even more stress on you because it's not routine.
There must be a way to tackle this. Maybe practicing different coping mechanism then eating. When about to stress eat,remembering how bad it feels after stress eating using this thought to use a nother coping mechanism like,meditation,grounding exercise,or smth else. After using this for some time. Maybe ur brain will recognize better habits.
The 2 minute rule is a great way to turn actions into habits. I always hated doing things like, emptying the bins, cleaning up and folding laundry but if you look at an undesirable action and assess that it would take 2 minutes or less to do, then just do it immediately. You'll find that you end up just doing those things out of habit after a while without it feeling like such a laborious chore.
I learned this to recently. Like thinking of the actual time it takes is amazing. It allows you to give it something. Like music theory, I had a thought that I would never understand a particular concept. So I just said. It's okay, you will learn it in at least one hour. And then I did! It seemed like much less work and bit by bit I understood it til it clicked
This channel, every person behind it and its whole community is one of the best parts about the internet as a whole. There hasn't been a time when I haven't felt better by just listening and watching these videos or talking to other community members. Thank you Kurzgesagt, you make the world brighter!
For the first few months of this year I was on a massive roll in terms of keeping up with routines and smashing out short term and long term goals. But then I lost my momentum and entered this limbo phase where I have been lazy and falling into poor habits. The fact that this video has come out, not even a week after I have decided to get back on track with my goals, is absolutely insane to me. It is almost as if the universe just gave me a wake up call. Thank you guys so much for this video, makes me glad I discovered this channel when it had only a million subscribers
Dont beat yourself up about it, failing sometimes(even a lot) is a part of the process. Remember that youre still miles ahead the version of you that didnt try at all and that loosing momentum and getting it back over and over is consistency in itself. Wish you the best of luck
I've always loved how informative Kurzgesagt is with their videos on various topics. But I've never watched a Kurzgesagt video more helpful to me as an individual as this one. Big props to the team!
@Don't Read My Profile Photo Change your LIfe with more Science and Atheism and Conspiracy-Debunks than ever before: Joe Scott, Sci Man Dan, Nile Red, Professor Dave, Prophet of Zod, Hbomberguy, Holy Koolaid and Rationality Rules are just some for that. And Telltale Atheist literally has so much value, i cant list it all, but lets just say he warns you every time a Science-Denier runs for Office.
Thank you so much for this video. Another way I do this is by looking at things like a privilege. I’m only 15 and I’m grateful for having more control over how my life is going to be, and I’m grateful to be young and in good shape. I’m also grateful for having opportunities to study and have access to basic needs, because I hear so many people aren’t fortunate enough to get those things, and really want it. Whenever I don’t make good use of an opportunity, or think of it negatively, I’d think of it as unfair as so many people would really want to be in my position right now, so I may as well make the best of it.
I have found out that going when I'm not feeling like it, I end up in a good mood within 5 minutes after entering. Habits: can work the other way around as well 😁
My father, who built himself a home gym ages ago, tried to convince me and my sis to do fitness with him since we were kids, especially me who was a homebuddy and sitting around most of the time and overweight since puberty. He always said: "You need to start, need to force yourself to do it regularly, get used to it. And after a few months, you won't have to force yourself anymore, your body will demand the workout and you will feel like a better person afterwards." I always refused, partly cause my mom was very into me studying till i drop and doing house chores, so my free time was already rare and precious as a student (and i always wanted to paint for that 1 or 2 hours of free time). Now, in my 30s I realize my father was right. Though i don't do the kind of workouts that he himself does (i tell you, he's nearly 60 and even Chloe Ting will be impressed by his workout routine, and he's a fulltime truck driver at that), ever since i started doing Yoga and Pilates, i can't go a day without it (As for my muscle training, I do it every 2-3 days, started only a year ago and way too late and my fluffy old lady body fights it with all its might). So yeah, with fitness it seems to be more true than anything else.
How do you guys do it? I really struggle with doing exercises. Frankly, I just don’t enjoy it at all and convincing myself to do it is always an uphill battle. I had a lot of negative and even slightly traumatic experiences with exercise and sports growing up as a geeky and clumsy guy and I just get really self-conscious about it. I actually kinda hate doing it these days because it feels like a particularly painful, boring, and embarrassing chore.
@@WASDLeftClick Do a form of exercise you enjoy! Do you enjoy lifting weights? Go to the gym and lift some weights. Do you enjoy cycling? Start doing this Etc.
Thank you for this video, I feel like every line of this video hit me in emotional spots. I am going through a very hard time right now, my poor time management skills is risking me my university diploma, I couldn't find the motivation to finish editing my novel, keep learning German a part of my tightly stretched schedule, and my parents are on the brink of a divorce. Your videos have always been a consistently excellent part of my brief relaxing time on UA-cam ever since I discovered your channel 4 years ago. Thank you Kurzgezagt, for everything.
Broooooo I know what you're going through right now cause I am going through a similar thing too, just high school instead of uni. I can't find the motivation to improve my art skills, and my desire to move out from my parents is getting stronger and stronger. I hope someday we'll be able to see better days ahead of us, and I also hope we become courageous enough to change our lives for the better as well.
i dont want to exaggerate but im in a quite the same situation with you. thank you for sharing your experience, it somehow makes me less anxious, i hope we both can get through this together to a better and brighter future
For those who want a deeper dive into this subject: I would strongly recommend you to read The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. It explains the different aspects of how habits form, incorporating willpower, cravings, and keystone habits. It also explains how we can change them and why we can't easily do so. Overall, this book really shows an in-depth analysis of habits and change!
This is absolutely the best life advice I've ever heard & 100% worked for me when I decided to start working out. Start small, but have a PLAN & work your way up. Once it becomes a habit you don't think about it it's just part of your day. Works great with changing your diet as well. Great video.
It's been 5 months since I watched this. my life has improved 80% since I followed this advice. it really works, sometimes you may have a relapse when this happens just watch this video again :)
This couldn’t have come in a better time, I was busy organizing my life today as well as writing down goals. I’m really trying to turn my life around. This video is like a sweet reward from the universe!
Perfect timing indeed!! I have been struggling a lot to adapt my routine after deciding to peruse a new career, and this video definitely boosted my will to not give it up. I wish you good fortune with your goals
I’m trying so hard I have PTSD from war in Bosnia from 1992 /1996, since 2012(so it’s been over 10 years of on and off battling and it’s worse during winter), I tried everything and I can’t get myself back on the track. It gets better than it comes back. I’m gonna try this. My major problem is that I don’t really know how to talk about it (therapist or my psychiatrist; i kind keep avoiding and put like a lock on it )and it keeps building up. I’m going to try this approach and see how it works. Thank you for making those recommendations and clips. Stay safe all and best of wishes to you and your loved ones.
It's incredible that while I finally am finding myself getting back into self-improvement, Kurzgesagt puts out a video on this exact topic. I've been struggling with foregoing instant gratification to meet my goals, so this video is incredibly well timed! Kurzgesagt will always be the #1 channel on UA-cam :)
Why would you have to forgo instant gratification to meet your goals, wouldn’t you be gratified every step of the way as long as you are doing these steps to meet your goals?
@@baxtertheboss8743 instant gratification in regards to porn/video games/weed/junk food, not instantly being gratified by doing productive activity (which, for most, the gratification is delayed because it only comes AFTER finishing the productive thing)
Pretty much the same here, even tho I'm a couple weeks late to the train. Though I only now saw this video. I've found myself in the middle of some life changing events that have had some really positive effects on my life. Not saying these changes just came by and happened. I've been working on this stuff for a while now, but I can't honestly say that some luck wasn't involved. Anyway, I too have these "instant gratification" habits. I've developed those to cope with anxiety and stress. Now, even when life is starting to look much less bleak, I still have those habits since I've been doing those for years. But now they aren't for coping anymore, they are just extra. And I recently just started to cut off from those unhealthy habits a little by little and I've been trying to replace them with healthier ones. Then I come across this video. Such a great timing as you said and such a great motivation boost. I wish you strength to stay on your path of self-improvement and I'll try my best to do the same. May life treat us as we deserve.
- Include triggers (cues that give signals to start): time, place, specific objects, or all of them. - Make doing it fun (add something fun to do to it) - focus on small changes everyday, one step at a time instead of overwhelming yourself with the end goal everytime you want to get started. - start by convincing your brain that it's not that big a deal. - be consistent - break your goals down into small, clear, specific and tangible actions. - always remember that doing small things everyday is better than doing nothing. - it's different for each person how long it will take to pick up a habit.
I'm surprised that neither the video nor the comment mentioned to actually make sure the trigger can be connected to the desired action. Sitting in front of your computer may be a trigger for doing work, but if your brain also often sees it as the trigger to start gaming, you probably won't learn the desired habit.
@@sebastianjost hmmm... maybe if your work involves something you can write down, start writing it by hand, and once you have some momentum, type out what you've written. (I just thought of this right now; I have no idea if it'll work for anybody)
I actually experienced this myself a few years back. I wanted to write more, because I was always too tired after work. So instead I started writing in the morning, between 5 and 6am to give myself lots of time to write. And now, writing is a happy habit. I do it nearly every day, minus days where I'm feeling ill or didn't sleep well. It helped a lot that writing was the first thing I did in the day.
Hey, as a young adult in college, I’m constantly overwhelmed by work done by my peers and their success in a multitude of things. While I’ve been trying to get there myself, I’ve always found myself lacking, because I wasn’t simply consistent enough. This video sorta helps me clear the clutter in my head now and I do feel motivated to work, let’s hope I do achieve my workout goals and work goals. Thanks, kurzgesagt.
I've been there before. While you shouldn't compare yourself too much with others, wanting to strive to better yourself is honorable. You can do it, small steps at a time! Don't worry about tripping and falling, about being down again and falling back into your old ways. That can and most likely will happen. Just keep trying, however long it takes you!
This is just so relatable. One year ago, in the middle of covid pandemic, i had a lot of freetime, and i thought i must workout and change my body once and for all. I was not very strong back then and working out was so intense and tired but i kept doing it everyday in the afternoon. Now, a year later, it becomes a new habit for me. I do exercises almost whenever i have freetime. I don't even have to think about it, and it's really enjoyable now that if i missed 1 training section i will get upset
I'm struggling mentally and I've been in my "toddler" mode over 2 or more years. I finally made the decision to change and this video helped me so much. Thank you so much!♡
Congratulations! You're doing awesome. How have you managed to fight the intense anxiety of having no nicotine? I'm trying so hard but I'm stuck when the "itch" turns into a "stab". Any advice would be appreciated.
@@jonathanb3899 That's a great way to describe it: a "stab." I know what that's like. The advice in this video can actually help with this: By carving a path and taking it whenever you start feeling that itch. Walking is especially good improving mental health and anxiety; it clears your mind, and you get exercise as a bonus!
Learn some effective stress management behavior. When life throws you a curve ball and you absolutely /need/ something to ease the stress, it's far to easy to reach back to nicotine as a way to cope with an extreme event. This is why I started smoking again after a year and a half.
@@jonathanb3899 find other methods of stress management. Non of which will be as fun or satisfying as a smoke, but eventually they become easier and you feel better. I'd carry a Gameboy with Tetris or Pokemon on it to help when I need to just breath. Tetris gives my brain feel good stuff.
Something I love about humans is our desire for habits. They define who we are, and not having any habits can take a toll on our mental health. Just reading all the comments about people suffering from depression who have turned a corner with routine exercise, hobbies, etc. is so heartwarming.
I realized I've been too hard towards myself, setting difficult mountains for me to climb, while also punishing myself severely when I slip up, even if it was insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Thank you for this video, Kurzgesagt! I'll try to be more kind to myself and make the mountain climbs more enjoyable so that eventually it will naturally wove itself into my life.
"improving your life a little is so much better than aiming high"-I was deeply impressed by these words. And I completely agree with this. Therefore, I am looking forward to making small changes in my life instead of solely aiming high
Quarantining for COVID has really destroyed me mentally. The pandemic has been basically over for like a year now but I still haven’t picked my life back up. It’s funny to me how this channel covers so many nihilistic or depressing topics, but I almost always come away from these videos reminded that the universe can be more than a big dead nothing. Thank you for all that you do
You can do it Joe!!! remember that you're not alone and you can do difficult things, you are capable of more than you imagine, one step at a time, wishing you the best
@@igggoshastudios7802 really I’m happy for you that all that changed in your life during that time is you had to wear a mask at the grocery store but a lot of people were not that lucky. All universities sent their students home, the only people I knew who didn’t lose their jobs were state employees and fast food workers. I don’t know what gave you the idea that I believed the quarantine were bad, but I actually quarantined and didn’t go see anyone for a pretty long time because I lived in a high risk area. You can have both positive and negative feelings towards something, you shouldn’t assume someone’s intentions so broadly
If no one has read Atomic Habits by James Clear yet, I highly recommend it. The book describes change almost exactly like this video but in incredible step-by-step detail! Thanks Kurzgesagt for creating a video on this principle! Change can be simplified in our lives!
@@nileshsharma9220 consider two math teachers teaching the quadratic formula. Just because both teachers have taught the same formula doesnt mean they are copying each other right? cuz in the end the quadratic formula is the same for all. Similarly the science behind learning a habit is the same for all hence the contents and pointers covered in the book maybe the same. Idk if they have actually copied the book or not but it doesn't matter as in the end its done for a good cause and more ppl will be able to employ these tactics in their daily lives and improve!
This video alone is what motivated me to do daily exercise, like the day after I watched it, I started to change my life patterns, to exercise more. Currently 4 months in, just above 12 stone right now! Thank you, Kurzgesagt! Edit 1: Still doing relatively well, now BELOW 12 stone! I'm maintaining myself well, and after making this comment, I felt more confident in myself. I still need to gain more confidence because I'll be going to college next year, but I'm doing my best. Once again, kudos to you guys. ❤
This is so well timed for me! I'm pursuing a career as a child therapist, and I've been experiencing for myself taking small steps for a greater change!
This video helped me alot. I used to do this math and english app for 90 minutes each day. At first it was hard and challenging. But as i grew older and got used to doing it, it wasnt bad. I would listen to my favorite youtubers lifestream while doing it and i would enjoy it. At first after i stopped it seamed easy, but after a while it became hard again. Point is, even if it is a good or bad thing the highway can dissapear. if you want to stop bad habits, try replacing them. Dont try to aim big, aim for little steps. I once tried to do 100 situps everyday and i stopped after day 7. But later on i decided to do 20 situps and increase it with time and it worked. Thank you for this amazing video.
You either say: “enough is enough” when you are desperate enough for change OR you find what can motivate you before you hit your breaking point. Depends how much suffering you can tolerate until something gives way.
I've hit my breaking point literally dozens of times, I've said enough is enough dozens of times, and every time I'm like "enough is enough" sure I change a bit for like a few days but after that I get into that slump and get into that cycle again, it's been 2 years, nothing's changed
You’ve got to address the root cause first though, or you’ll just default back to your old habits. The root cause for me was low self esteem and subconsciously not believing I could actually do it. Once I worked on those beliefs, my habits became much much easier to change
That's precisely what Kurzgesagt mentioned. You got triggered by 'enough is enough' hype, but then overtime, instant gratification took over. Instead, plan ahead, break down your goal into smaller pieces and arrange them in steps does made achievement much easier.
Youre not alone, friend. It will feel like you are and i know how that feels but youre part of a collective and we are gonna get through this and live our best lives one day. You are worth more then you know. Be good to yourself, ami
This video nearly made me cry because I got diagnosed with ADHD about half a year ago and I finally found out the reason why some things feel so difficult. It's like the toddler is mostly in control, and my brain rarely remembers that the planner exists. I think part of the struggle is that it takes more energy to get the "planner" part of my brain going, and also forming habits is more difficult. Like for example, it takes so much energy to keep myself clean and fed because I haven't been able to form concrete habits -- so I have to use the "planner" to make myself take a shower instead of the toddler. Watching this video makes it easier to understand my brain, so thank you!
As I've gotten older, I have found that my autistic traits are much harder to mask. I also have ADHD. Between the two, it can be pretty difficult to get things done. This video resonated with me, though, because I think back to when I was more functional and how I was able to achieve that... and it was with habits. I had certain habits engrained within myself, so the things I needed to do did not seem so hard. It feels hard to get ready and leave my house when I don't do it often. It feels hard to do my makeup when I don't do it often. It never felt hard when I did it every day. I used to wake up and hop in the shower first thing in the morning before school when I was younger. Now? Ha! It takes me forever to drag myself to the shower, and it most certainly does not happen every day. But when I think about all of the time I spend engaging in habits that aren't exactly good for me, and how I start my day by sitting up and looking at my phone, I realize that this one habit can be changed and affect the whole rest of my day, which affects the rest of my week, and the rest of my life. I don't want to die from heart disease, so I have to change my habits. I am working on it, but I could work a little harder.
for me it’s more like i’m made of velcro. any time i sit down, or play on my phone, or do something i’m interested in i get stuck. a normal person would be able to get up off the couch, while i get glued to it. it’s cool to hear how it feels for you tho!
Yeah. . . been enjoying subreddits like /r/ADHD, /r/adhdwomen, /r/adhdmeme, /r/ADHDhacks, /r/ADHDers, /r/ADHDthriving, /r/adhd_anxiety, and maybe /r/HealthyGamerGG helps me personally. Though maybe when used too much, Reddit is still a distraction as this video suggests, hahaha. At least it seems to do more about it than watching videos of cats and dogs online.
Man, I have not watched a video this relatable in a while. I have been stuck in the same place for years. I desperately want to change and be a completely different person from my current self, but I've been feeling for a while that maybe that is the wrong approach. Learning to like myself for going in a chosen direction rather than loathing myself for not being where I want to be yet seems like a much healthier way to deal. Thanks so much for this video -- I really needed to hear it.
life is like a career. you don't start out as a ceo, you start as a coworker in the warehouse. but that doesn't mean being in the starting position is bad or not fun or dishonorable. doing nothing is.
This channel has surprisingly been a huge help in my mentally darkest times, in my case by reminding me how curious i was to scientific stuff when i was a kid. Seeing this type of motivational videos from the same creator is just making me so happy. But what i enjoy more is that after watching this video i realized i actually did create myself a trigger and a habit to be better, _with_ kurzgesagt videos. I would watch one interesting space or biology video from kurzgesagt everytime i struggled to start some of my hobbies, because i had realized after watching a video with interesting context rather than a social media tour, i'm more likely to start researching since informative videos spark further curiosity in me. The very reason i watched this video was so that i could use it as a trigger to start my daily drawing routine, which i was struggling on for some time. Thank you Kurzgesagt for preparing such inspirational videos WITH the science behind it!
Honestly thou, some years back this channel helped me realize how much I like learning. So much so that now I preach the importance of learning. Everyone we know in history is remembered for helping us learn something. From musicians teaching us new songs, to athletes teaching us what the human body can be capable of, to the infamous people in history teaching us what not to do. I really appreciate this channel for helping people learn how to learn, and asking for nothing in return.
This video helped me understand my executive dysfunction so much better actually. See, I cannot build habits- I can, say, brush my teeth every morning for years, and I still have to make a conscious decision to brush my teeth every single time. I can build that mental road, but it never becomes a highway no matter how hard I try. The good news is that I don’t build bad habits, but the bad news is that every decision I make requires a lot of effort. The way this video explained how the careful planner and impulsive toddler are supposed to work together helped me to see why something as simple as getting out of bed is exhausting. I do not have the impulsive toddler, so every choice I make is done by the careful planner. Knowing what I am missing helps me understand how I can better make up for it. So yeah thank you for making this video!
At the same time, you don't want to be practicing your whole life, only making slight improvements. You don't set out of your house without a destination in mind. You eventually want to arrive.
@@yasg80 even so. You just quoted something from the video. Which many other think so too. See at it this way, "Great minds think alike" instead of "copying" and all the "I'm so unique" bs.
"We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons." -Jim Rohn
For everyone interested on reading more about this - I recommend reading "Atomic Habits". This is basically it - on how to form habits and the fact that improvement has an accumulative effect that amounts to great lengths over time.

"Improving your life a little is so much better than aiming high and changing nothing. " Is something I agree so much with.
Yes I learned about goal setting in my motivational psychology class!! Setting small subgoals to a larger goal is so so beneficial to continuance
Yes. Perfectionism is a roadblock!
I also totally agree. Small change will make bigger and bigger changes
I have been guilty of this many times in my life and am definitely willing to let go of this bad habit as it has landed me in trouble many many times. It's good to think big in life but only doing small things towards that will help the cause otherwise it will be frustrating all along the way.
I learned this with experience tbh 🧚🏻♀️
Im not even joking, Kurzgesagt explains everything so strategically and logically, and really places the same idea in one's mind which teachers and etc. have been trying for so long. I can't believe how motivated I am currently to also leave all my bad habits.
Don't try to quit all of them at once! That motivation will run out really fast. Instead, try to pick the most important one, the one that will have the most impact on your life if you leave it behind. Start there, see what works for you, then you can keep going down the list :)

I would add 2 things to this:
1. Start with one change at the time. Life is short but it's easier to start small, drastic change will make things worse
2. Regarding bad habits - like checking reddit/insta/anything - remember that you stand against whole teams that design this to be more time consuming, so try to avoid it but be understanding for yourself
i've just seen the social dilemma and no. 2 is absolutely right
I am pretty good at stopping bad habits but It started as a kid. I didn't like that I went on fb all the time as it was just full of garbage and now I am not on any social media and I don't watch the news. but it was really easy. The hard part is people are always asking me, whats my snap, insta or fb.
Checking Reddit doesnt need to be a bad thing, waste of time. U can actually do useful things there and read something interesting/learn.
@@VeyroneR that's what they want you to believe and they succeeded.

How is it even possible that we don't see our brain as an obstacle yet? Something to be modelled, at will, by force? The fact that something other than purely conscious decisions may have an impact on your own behavior can't be anything but a form of self-denial.
That feeling you get when your two favorite UA-camrs know each other. :) Anyway starting with the feet

this can easily be reframed as telling yourself: "just do something". that's something I like to tell myself at least instead of trying to motivate myself and it seems to help

I do tend to think about stuff too much and that convinces me of reasons not to do it. But "Just do it" doesn't always help either.

It's important to point out that bragging about how good you think you've done can tumble the card house you've build. If you feel better with what you've done, better keep it for your self and be happy about it.
It almost made me cry when you guys said we don't need to buy anything to change our lives. We're so used to ads bombarding us with "YOU NEED THIS!!" or "DON'T MISS OUT!!!" that it almost feels too good to be true when we see authentic and healthy advertising. We desperately need more of this, much, much more!!
But you need to buy it, you need a lot of money to have good food, good supporting books, pay for internet, pay for music that inspires you or helps you move for exercises or housework, you need to pay for everything even water, that's what makes life monotonous pointless and boring, the main reason why as humans we are worth it and we don't mind dying young, it is the best option
@@xiebunlian That's not what they meant at all.

@@xiebunlian You can make good meals out of rice/quinoa/pasta, beans/lentils, frozen/canned veggies, and spices-all cheap options for food (unless you're trying to make something with saffron or pine nuts). Buy meats when they are on sale. Books can be rented from the library, as can the internet. There are free wifi hotspots all around the city. Music can be streamed for free and also rented from the library. Yes, it's unfortunate that utilities cost money, but life doesn't have to be as expensive if you're willing to find better and cheaper ways of doing things. Just takes a little more effort than paying higher prices for near-instant results.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.- Great answer!!
Nice ideas. Here are my four to add:
1. Remove boundaries to starting: if you're want to practise guitar more then leave it out and plugged in. Make it so you can just walk past, play for 5 mins then get on with something else. It has to be as easy as possible.
2. Become aware of the things that stop you - sometimes quite small random things, like the guitar is always out of tune (so buy a tuner), or the only time you get to practise everyone is already in bed (so use some headphones) or it's difficult to hold the guitar on your bed (so find a good chair and move it next to your amp)
3. Remove pressure - if you're doing it to be famous then you're always going to feel the pressure to achieve. You've got to do it primarily because you love it.
4. and this is key for me - Acknowledge you only have limited energy. It can feel like if you have 5 free hours then you can do one hour of guitar practise, an hour of exercise, an hour to read your book, an hour to cook, etc. But in reality each activity has not only a physical cost, but also a mental load. Acknowledge the mental load, then free yourself of it. If you have a stressful job then you probably won't do your hobby - the job has taken all your mental load and that is why you're watching Netflix for 5 hours.
5. You do not have to change the world. It's ok, there are already plenty of authors, musicians, entertainers, photographers, etc. You can just do this for fun. Just honestly and seriously, start from the position that the world does not need you to do this thing, and will not care if you never do it. And now just do it anyway - do it for yourself.
Regarding #4 if you take 10-20 naps or Meditations in-between what you are trying yo learn and during that time you think about your mistakes and how to do better and then imagine you doing it properly you will return with more energy without stopping your practice.
Resurce the difference between visualization vs imagination and look up catastrophic thinking.

The thing is, for any given small action to have a big impact, it is extremely rare, yes, turning left or right could impact your whole life, but that doesn't happen often. Time travelers knows exactly which moment it is because they've experienced the other option already and traced it back to that one point, but we now in the present don't know, and often it isn't worth it to do the extra thing just because it might impact your life one day.

Pretty accurate. I got into exercise by just automatically driving to the gym after work. Then I wouldn't let myself leave until I went in and did at least one exercise. Then afterwards, I was always like "well, I've already started, and I'd look silly if I left now... I may as well finish the whole workout". It still surprises me how effective that strategy was for me. It might not work for everyone, but I encourage giving it a try if you want to exercise regularly. And he's right. The first few weeks were miserable. Now, not getting my scheduled exercise in is miserable. The human brain is amazing.
True, my friend
I hadn’t considered why I don’t exercise after work, I should try this! Thanks.

I also found setting a realistic goal then a bonus goal helped... a bit of brain trickery there but ... basically I'd love to go 3x a week! But making that my goal lead to a lot of "failure" feelings if I only went 2x.... so I adjusted my goal to be 2x so I always meet it, and 3x is a bonus! HUMAN BRAINS man.... so crazy XD
@@rhqqn446fjnnbbc tbh even pay or become the member of gym still has a chance of failure, depends on the person, i've read some ppl on the internet said it, so we really need additional tricks, i guess
One year after this video, I have actually started changing myself (started about 2 months ago) it's not a significant amount of change but it definitely it noticeable! and I am super proud of myself. Before I used to just sit around all day browsing youtube and reddit and discord and literally doing nothing. Now I'm actually doing my work on time and started studying a few days before exams. Can't wait to work hard and get even better!
That’s awesome! ❤❤❤
literally me 😭
good shit dude! keep it up!!
Keep it up man!Hope u will do great

"Change is a direction, not a destination."
What a great quote. This will definitely become one of my motto.
"Journey before Destination"
Stolen comment 🤣 So desperate for likes

Change is your money given back after purchase.
These are my two mottos:
-Fear kills future
-Done is better than perfect
And just yesterday night I said "I need another terse motto for my procrastination" and then saw this video. "Change is a direction, not a destination" is my third motto now.
how about "Never help those who cant help themselves", you can keep that one
@@The_Good_Captain Hmmm, i understand what that one is trying to say but it feels too selfish.
@@The_Good_Captain It depends. Don't just blindly reach out and help everyone you see because that is a recipe for stretching yourself out. However there is sometimes in this world a time where a person close to you loses a bit of themselves for one reason or another. And that person will lose the will to live or the motivation to better themselves. If you truly care for this person it is your duty to reach out and give that your best effort to help them within your own means. Do not ever give more than you are comfortable with and if you have to push past that barrier at times make sure to find the time to set boundaries and establish communication about where those boundaries are with the person in question. Unfortunately yes you may start to see a pattern where this person you care about is blowing past your patience and then you may start to lose the ability to care. They may continually ask too much and go past the boundaries. And in these cases it may be a good time to reassess if the person you care about requires more help from an outside source. Another friend or family member maybe. And if in the end this person really can't help themselves like you first thought and has evidenced to hurt others and themselves without improvement and maybe even has slid backwards over time. perhaps that is the time to have an intervention to let them know explicitly where there problems are and how they negatively affecting others. You can provide avenues for help like therapists in the area or support groups. But then, With effort and communication and understanding you can responsibly cut them out of your life until they help themselves. Because then you will at least communicated the tools to help them fish for themselves.
This is only if you initially believe in them and you believe in the long-term friendship or relationship. It truly is up to discretion but sometimes it is necessary to pull from within to help the ones we love. But we always have to do it responsibly.
That first one makes me feel a lot. I can see how I have been living the past 12 years in fear from trauma. Fear of other people. Loved ones did terrible things to me, multiple different loved ones, and it's been very difficult to find strangers that want to become more than strangers and help support me.
idk how I feel about the first one. Fear is what gets me to do everything, really
I have a quote calender and today it says "Your future is determined by what you do; not by what you plan to do." I thought it was quite fitting.
I love how Kurzgesagt can change up their content to help people out with their goals by breaking down the science behind the brain’s patterns when it comes to triggers and habits, then offering genuine helpful advice on how to achieve our goals effectively. Like they’ve mentioned, in order to change is by making little goals and little changes because your progress will accumulate over time through consistency. Just experiment and find out what works for you since it’s different with everyone. This is a really nice video.
I'm sure you actually watched the video and definitely didn't read other people's comments to see the popular opinion and then summarise it to get lots of likes instead of posting an original comment

I just went through one of my worst depressive moment of my life, and I started going to they gym. I started going 30 minutes, now my brain build the habit to go 1 hour 4 times per week. You need to start slowly! Thanks for this video, it’s amazing and it touches my heart.❤️
Happy to know you're better. Also, I love your vids!

My man is geniunely pouring his emotions and self-positivit and people are like; WE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Even 30 minutes to start with is so hard for me. Like i can imagine i start working out with 2 minutes. U think this is enough for working out to develop a habit?
i havent left my basement since 74 days
I've decided to change some habits a couple weeks ago. At first it was "easy" but lately I've been feeling like it's not enough and my therapists keep telling me to not rush. Now I understand it better, so thank you a ton!
Keep it up! 💪
I live an unhealthy lifestyle. (I turn my days and nights around, don't go outside, don't brush my teeth, etc.). I try to take action but always fail on the second day. And until today, I was at a loss. Then, as usual, I was browsing UA-cam and found this video, watched it right away, and right after that, I wrote down a few things I wanted to make into habits. (Brush your teeth, exercise, etc.). Then, an hour later, I started doing one of those things. Then, to my surprise, I accomplished everything I had written on the list, even though I thought that if I could do even one of those things, I would have done well. I was amazed. It was so easy that it was ridiculous that I kept worrying about it. ...... I need to repeat it many more times to make it a habit, but I believe I can do it this time.
Thanks, kurzgesagt!
(I use translation software)
Hey, how are things for you now?
The timing couldn't have been more perfect. I'm in the process of changing how I live and do things and this video is going to be of big help. Thanks Kurzgesagt for everything.
If you want to know more about how to create good habits and break bad ones, I recommend you read Atomic Habits by James Clear. This book helped me tremendously in understanding how to develop new habits and break old ones. It's really fun to read, if you are interested in the topic :)

Me too I’m joining the construction laborers union. On the 20th I’m going to a week long training session where they would put me in various physical tests to test my endurance and strength since it’s very important to have both of those in this field. Im doing this as a 19 year old. I have to be in my best shape to do rigorous and long inducing work which I’m familiar with. Shifts will be 10-12 hours on average. Dropped out of college to start with a 28/hr starting pay with benefits as an apprentice which is really good and one of the reasons why I dropped out of school. I do plan on joining college again but once I’ve gotten my fair share of cash on hand I hate the idea of having student debt. I guess this is the next step in my life and I wish anyone else good luck in whatever they are planning to do..

I’ve been dealing with depression for a long time and I’ve struggled a lot the past few years. I always seem to fall out of my habits because I put too much pressure on myself to be perfect from the beginning. Small steps are still steps, change doesn’t happen over night. Great to see all the positive comments! It’s nice to know I’m not alone
This is me, also. But don't despair: You're not alone and MANY people feel the same way -- even "successful" people.
You're not alone! Alot of people feel the same! But we always gotta remember that if we want to change, we have to change gradually. Nothing becomes successful/is acheived overnight!
no worry.everyone is dealing with depression. it's just how they face it different. how many people on earth now feel honestly from their own heart " i will never swap my life with anyone". we are all struggling thinking we can be more. some self blaming become depression, some blame other to justify their situation it end up hurting others. only very2 small ammount suceed on it. lets not overthinking, and just start focusing on the small steps
I feel you.
I've been struggling with depression for about 11-12 years now. I have very similar experiences with habits as you do. Especially when it comes to hobbies. I have a graphics tablet for drawing, as well as an expensive digital piano just sitting around collecting dust because I feel like I' m unable to change.
I just hope that my move and my (belated) start in college in a few months can help me at least a little bit in changing.
Best to you friend! Hope it gets better.
This sounds really familiar. I almost always overperformed until last year I completely broke and was diagnozed with anxiety dissorder and alarmingly bad deppression. I am now much better but like the video said change happens in small steps you can control. And you should be happy about them even if they seem small at first. Use all the time you need and be happy about the small things and when things are tough ask people around you for support as most of us are eager to help as we all have faced something that has been hard or taxing. Most of us want other people to succeed too and its as painful to experience those things yourself as it is to watch someone face their demons and challenges. Keep up people and dont let those setbacks slow you too much. Take your time and enjoy the little things this live has to offer. If you read all of this I wish a awesome day and to have the power to carry on. You are awesome always remember that.
There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.

I have ADHD, so simple things like getting in the shower or making breakfast feel like a chore. I tricked myself into doing this stuff because I put music when I shower, so simply by opening the Spotify app I "trigger" the shower response, and I put video essays when I cook. So not only do I have the stimulation I need to not get distracted, but I also started looking forward to this stuff! I had no idea I could apply this stuff to other things, or that it was a known process. I wonder how I can implement it in more aspects of my life.
I have adhd also and cooking and cleaning with videos or podcast is helpful for me. Unfortunately these things are avaible around the clock. It used to be more easy, when I had a special time when special radio program was broadcasted, and I knew have had 1hour to clean my bathroom.
Having it avaible around the clock does also include an option to procrastinate and/or listen in a comfy place 😕
I have done the same kind of things to try and help me be less distracted! it helps for the most part. I'm still working on a few things haha😅
I also have ADHD and do the same thing when I'm working or cooking or cleaning. I've gotten used to it, to the point where watching UA-cam by itself seems too boring. I still have weeks where I don't get anything done (when I'm really in a slump, UA-cam or audiobooks aren't enough to motivate me) so it's not a perfect system, but it helps.
Yeah, bundling chores with stimulating things is pretty necessary to get stuff done with ADHD :(
@SkyCommision personally I think that it means the jungle regrows faster and you never quite remember if this was exactly the same path you took as before. I lose habits disturbingly fast if I've for instance been sick for a week and unable to do things as usual. Which is why I started to try to write down the "algorithm" for different habits so that when I forget I can look it up, but I lost a lot of really great habits when I moved to a very distressing situation plus I lost that computer, so now that I'm finally in a better position I have to almost start from scratch :(
My memory used to be way better before a year when I had extreme thyroid issues without support from the GP at that place, but I still always temporarily forgot stuff because I constantly had to keep way too much stuff in my active memory (like finding a tan hay straw in a hay stack full of straws of different shades of color)
“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” -Socrates
"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." - The Living God
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty. That no flesh should glory in his presence.

@@pedrosorio9 Not trying to take away from the joy you experienced, but the total for unique buyers would be like 30M people max because people don't just buy one game in a series if they like the series. So that number is like 0.4% of the world's population, which seems pretty niche to me.

Investing in many sources of income that are independent of government paychecks is the prudent thing that everyone should be thinking about right now, especially given the global economic crisis. Stocks, forex, and digital currencies are still good investments at this time.
Sure, investing is essential for maintaining your financial stability, but making any kind of legitimate investment without the correct advice of a professional can result in a significant loss as well.
It's really not easy trading this market. I read a lot of books, tried to study, watch some tutorial videos, did a little demo before funding my account and I still lost a lot. The financial market could be very tricky
wanted to trade, but | got discouraged with the market price fluctuations~>
I also keep seeing lot's of people testifying about how they make money investing in Stock, Forex and Bitcoin and I wonder why I keep loosing. Can anyone help me out or at least advice me on what to do.

"Habits are executed by an impulsive toddler"
The comparison is true because just like Toddlers. Habits and Impulses can be tricked. An example of this is me saying "later" to my impulse instead of saying "no". The outright rejection will make The Toddler throw a tantrum in my brain. But stalling for time will eventually make The Toddler forget about the things it wanted to move on to other things that it also wanted so suddenly.

The hard part isn't starting a new habit - the hard part is dealing with everyday stresses that frustrate you and you fall back into the same habit that the everyday stresses probably turned you on to. Like comfort food stress eating. It's hard when you deal with the stresses day after day and you have few options to help you deal with them, and trying a new habit more often than nots put even more stress on you because it's not routine.
I relate to this soooo hard
🤓
Thats your challenge then…
There must be a way to tackle this. Maybe practicing different coping mechanism then eating. When about to stress eat,remembering how bad it feels after stress eating using this thought to use a nother coping mechanism like,meditation,grounding exercise,or smth else. After using this for some time. Maybe ur brain will recognize better habits.
@@sakuranovaryan9261 yeah, when I feel stressed I know a nice tea will make me feel calmer
The 2 minute rule is a great way to turn actions into habits. I always hated doing things like, emptying the bins, cleaning up and folding laundry but if you look at an undesirable action and assess that it would take 2 minutes or less to do, then just do it immediately. You'll find that you end up just doing those things out of habit after a while without it feeling like such a laborious chore.
I learned this to recently. Like thinking of the actual time it takes is amazing. It allows you to give it something.
Like music theory, I had a thought that I would never understand a particular concept. So I just said. It's okay, you will learn it in at least one hour.

I’m also grateful for having opportunities to study and have access to basic needs, because I hear so many people aren’t fortunate enough to get those things, and really want it.

I go to the GYM since 2014, I won't go only if I'm sick or traveling. The option of not going doesn't exist for me, it gets easier with time!
I have found out that going when I'm not feeling like it, I end up in a good mood within 5 minutes after entering. Habits: can work the other way around as well 😁
My father, who built himself a home gym ages ago, tried to convince me and my sis to do fitness with him since we were kids, especially me who was a homebuddy and sitting around most of the time and overweight since puberty. He always said: "You need to start, need to force yourself to do it regularly, get used to it. And after a few months, you won't have to force yourself anymore, your body will demand the workout and you will feel like a better person afterwards."
I always refused, partly cause my mom was very into me studying till i drop and doing house chores, so my free time was already rare and precious as a student (and i always wanted to paint for that 1 or 2 hours of free time).
Now, in my 30s I realize my father was right. Though i don't do the kind of workouts that he himself does (i tell you, he's nearly 60 and even Chloe Ting will be impressed by his workout routine, and he's a fulltime truck driver at that), ever since i started doing Yoga and Pilates, i can't go a day without it (As for my muscle training, I do it every 2-3 days, started only a year ago and way too late and my fluffy old lady body fights it with all its might). So yeah, with fitness it seems to be more true than anything else.
How do you guys do it? I really struggle with doing exercises. Frankly, I just don’t enjoy it at all and convincing myself to do it is always an uphill battle. I had a lot of negative and even slightly traumatic experiences with exercise and sports growing up as a geeky and clumsy guy and I just get really self-conscious about it. I actually kinda hate doing it these days because it feels like a particularly painful, boring, and embarrassing chore.
@@WASDLeftClick Do a form of exercise you enjoy!
Do you enjoy lifting weights? Go to the gym and lift some weights.
Do you enjoy cycling? Start doing this

Thank you for this video, I feel like every line of this video hit me in emotional spots. I am going through a very hard time right now, my poor time management skills is risking me my university diploma, I couldn't find the motivation to finish editing my novel, keep learning German a part of my tightly stretched schedule, and my parents are on the brink of a divorce. Your videos have always been a consistently excellent part of my brief relaxing time on UA-cam ever since I discovered your channel 4 years ago. Thank you Kurzgezagt, for everything.
You got this, Xeraphyx. Things will eventually work out. Sending you a big hug from Uruguay. 🤗🤗💪🏻💪🏻
@Don't Read My Profile Photo loser
Hang in there dude - sending positive vibes and best wishes
Broooooo I know what you're going through right now cause I am going through a similar thing too, just high school instead of uni. I can't find the motivation to improve my art skills, and my desire to move out from my parents is getting stronger and stronger. I hope someday we'll be able to see better days ahead of us, and I also hope we become courageous enough to change our lives for the better as well.
i dont want to exaggerate but im in a quite the same situation with you. thank you for sharing your experience, it somehow makes me less anxious, i hope we both can get through this together to a better and brighter future
For those who want a deeper dive into this subject: I would strongly recommend you to read The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. It explains the different aspects of how habits form, incorporating willpower, cravings, and keystone habits. It also explains how we can change them and why we can't easily do so. Overall, this book really shows an in-depth analysis of habits and change!
Discipline equals freedom is also a good book on the subject it helps you get trough the first part
Well I don't have a habit of reading so ;D
Atomic Habits by James Clear is really good too.
@@lyreparadox Agree. highly recommend it
This need more likes.
This is absolutely the best life advice I've ever heard & 100% worked for me when I decided to start working out. Start small, but have a PLAN & work your way up. Once it becomes a habit you don't think about it it's just part of your day. Works great with changing your diet as well. Great video.
“Change is a direction, not a destination” is such a perfect quote to sum up this video and just to motivate yourself to do better.
True, a great quote for everyone to keep moving on
It's been 5 months since I watched this.
my life has improved 80% since I followed this advice.
it really works, sometimes you may have a relapse when this happens just watch this video again :)
This is encouraging to know! Congratulations, and thanks for sharing.🙂

This couldn’t have come in a better time, I was busy organizing my life today as well as writing down goals. I’m really trying to turn my life around. This video is like a sweet reward from the universe!

Perfect timing indeed!! I have been struggling a lot to adapt my routine after deciding to peruse a new career, and this video definitely boosted my will to not give it up. I wish you good fortune with your goals
All the best, may you succeed.
I’m trying so hard I have PTSD from war in Bosnia from 1992 /1996, since 2012(so it’s been over 10 years of on and off battling and it’s worse during winter), I tried everything and I can’t get myself back on the track. It gets better than it comes back. I’m gonna try this. My major problem is that I don’t really know how to talk about it (therapist or my psychiatrist; i kind keep avoiding and put like a lock on it )and it keeps building up. I’m going to try this approach and see how it works. Thank you for making those recommendations and clips. Stay safe all and best of wishes to you and your loved ones.
You got this! I wish you all the best! 💯
It's incredible that while I finally am finding myself getting back into self-improvement, Kurzgesagt puts out a video on this exact topic. I've been struggling with foregoing instant gratification to meet my goals, so this video is incredibly well timed! Kurzgesagt will always be the #1 channel on UA-cam :)
Why would you have to forgo instant gratification to meet your goals, wouldn’t you be gratified every step of the way as long as you are doing these steps to meet your goals?
@@baxtertheboss8743 instant gratification in regards to porn/video games/weed/junk food, not instantly being gratified by doing productive activity (which, for most, the gratification is delayed because it only comes AFTER finishing the productive thing)
Same here lad, it is a destiny
Pretty much the same here, even tho I'm a couple weeks late to the train. Though I only now saw this video. I've found myself in the middle of some life changing events that have had some really positive effects on my life. Not saying these changes just came by and happened. I've been working on this stuff for a while now, but I can't honestly say that some luck wasn't involved. Anyway, I too have these "instant gratification" habits. I've developed those to cope with anxiety and stress. Now, even when life is starting to look much less bleak, I still have those habits since I've been doing those for years. But now they aren't for coping anymore, they are just extra. And I recently just started to cut off from those unhealthy habits a little by little and I've been trying to replace them with healthier ones. Then I come across this video. Such a great timing as you said and such a great motivation boost. I wish you strength to stay on your path of self-improvement and I'll try my best to do the same. May life treat us as we deserve.
@@BlackBulletBeretta thanks man! I agree, I wish us both luck!
- Include triggers (cues that give signals to start): time, place, specific objects, or all of them.
- Make doing it fun (add something fun to do to it)
- focus on small changes everyday, one step at a time instead of overwhelming yourself with the end goal everytime you want to get started.
- start by convincing your brain that it's not that big a deal.
- be consistent
- break your goals down into small, clear, specific and tangible actions.
- always remember that doing small things everyday is better than doing nothing.
- it's different for each person how long it will take to pick up a habit.
Thanks for this fam
I'm surprised that neither the video nor the comment mentioned to actually make sure the trigger can be connected to the desired action.
Sitting in front of your computer may be a trigger for doing work, but if your brain also often sees it as the trigger to start gaming, you probably won't learn the desired habit.
@@sebastianjost hmmm... maybe if your work involves something you can write down, start writing it by hand, and once you have some momentum, type out what you've written. (I just thought of this right now; I have no idea if it'll work for anybody)
Now the thing is how to convince your brain it's not a big deal 😂
Take this👑
I actually experienced this myself a few years back. I wanted to write more, because I was always too tired after work. So instead I started writing in the morning, between 5 and 6am to give myself lots of time to write. And now, writing is a happy habit. I do it nearly every day, minus days where I'm feeling ill or didn't sleep well. It helped a lot that writing was the first thing I did in the day.
Hey i might actually start to implement this but for drawing, thanks for sharing what worked for you!
Thanks!
Hey, as a young adult in college, I’m constantly overwhelmed by work done by my peers and their success in a multitude of things. While I’ve been trying to get there myself, I’ve always found myself lacking, because I wasn’t simply consistent enough. This video sorta helps me clear the clutter in my head now and I do feel motivated to work, let’s hope I do achieve my workout goals and work goals. Thanks, kurzgesagt.
SAME MAN, SAME! Also in college rn and when i look at my friends from high school i feel the same way. This video really resonated with my situation.
I've been there before. While you shouldn't compare yourself too much with others, wanting to strive to better yourself is honorable. You can do it, small steps at a time! Don't worry about tripping and falling, about being down again and falling back into your old ways. That can and most likely will happen. Just keep trying, however long it takes you!
@@Dieza4 thanks, thats reassuring!
@@cristophernavarro1819 yeah, it's tough in college rn with all the competition. Lets work our way to getting better!
This is just so relatable. One year ago, in the middle of covid pandemic, i had a lot of freetime, and i thought i must workout and change my body once and for all. I was not very strong back then and working out was so intense and tired but i kept doing it everyday in the afternoon. Now, a year later, it becomes a new habit for me. I do exercises almost whenever i have freetime. I don't even have to think about it, and it's really enjoyable now that if i missed 1 training section i will get upset
Guaranteed now, watching my videos will change your life.
it's incredible how your perception of it can just completely flip, good job!

After vaping for about 4 years, today is my 30th nicotine-free day. Being aware and acknowledge the triggers are crucial🙌🏿 still got long way to go🐈
Congratulations! You're doing awesome.
How have you managed to fight the intense anxiety of having no nicotine? I'm trying so hard but I'm stuck when the "itch" turns into a "stab". Any advice would be appreciated.
@@jonathanb3899 That's a great way to describe it: a "stab." I know what that's like. The advice in this video can actually help with this: By carving a path and taking it whenever you start feeling that itch. Walking is especially good improving mental health and anxiety; it clears your mind, and you get exercise as a bonus!
Learn some effective stress management behavior. When life throws you a curve ball and you absolutely /need/ something to ease the stress, it's far to easy to reach back to nicotine as a way to cope with an extreme event. This is why I started smoking again after a year and a half.
GREAT JOB, just wanted to let you know we are all so proud of you. sending LOTS AND LOTS of virtual hugs homie
@@jonathanb3899 find other methods of stress management. Non of which will be as fun or satisfying as a smoke, but eventually they become easier and you feel better. I'd carry a Gameboy with Tetris or Pokemon on it to help when I need to just breath. Tetris gives my brain feel good stuff.
Something I love about humans is our desire for habits. They define who we are, and not having any habits can take a toll on our mental health. Just reading all the comments about people suffering from depression who have turned a corner with routine exercise, hobbies, etc. is so heartwarming.
I realized I've been too hard towards myself, setting difficult mountains for me to climb, while also punishing myself severely when I slip up, even if it was insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Thank you for this video, Kurzgesagt! I'll try to be more kind to myself and make the mountain climbs more enjoyable so that eventually it will naturally wove itself into my life.
Same :/
Problem is idk how to stop punishing myself, it sucks. Do I even want to stop?
@@CrayCrayslab maybe try to start setting more achievable goals for yourself, instead of something really challenging?
@@CrayCrayslab I punish myself too, it's not easy to stop. I recommend talking to a therapist, it's helped me a lot. 😊

"improving your life a little is so much better than aiming high"-I was deeply impressed by these words. And I completely agree with this. Therefore, I am looking forward to making small changes in my life instead of solely aiming high
Quarantining for COVID has really destroyed me mentally. The pandemic has been basically over for like a year now but I still haven’t picked my life back up. It’s funny to me how this channel covers so many nihilistic or depressing topics, but I almost always come away from these videos reminded that the universe can be more than a big dead nothing. Thank you for all that you do
You can do it Joe!!! remember that you're not alone and you can do difficult things, you are capable of more than you imagine, one step at a time, wishing you the best
Me too I was doing so good until the pandemic hit and reverted back to sitting doing nothing and sleeping everyday now its so much harder
Oh how bad, we feel so sad about you not being able… to go into a shop not wearing a mask..?
@@igggoshastudios7802 really I’m happy for you that all that changed in your life during that time is you had to wear a mask at the grocery store but a lot of people were not that lucky. All universities sent their students home, the only people I knew who didn’t lose their jobs were state employees and fast food workers. I don’t know what gave you the idea that I believed the quarantine were bad, but I actually quarantined and didn’t go see anyone for a pretty long time because I lived in a high risk area. You can have both positive and negative feelings towards something, you shouldn’t assume someone’s intentions so broadly
If no one has read Atomic Habits by James Clear yet, I highly recommend it. The book describes change almost exactly like this video but in incredible step-by-step detail! Thanks Kurzgesagt for creating a video on this principle! Change can be simplified in our lives!
This video is inspired by that book I think
edit: just saw the whole video. They copy pasted the book
@@nileshsharma9220 OR it could just be coincidence.
I was searching for a comment that mentions this book lol. I am remembering each chapter as I go through the video
@@nileshsharma9220 consider two math teachers teaching the quadratic formula. Just because both teachers have taught the same formula doesnt mean they are copying each other right? cuz in the end the quadratic formula is the same for all. Similarly the science behind learning a habit is the same for all hence the contents and pointers covered in the book maybe the same.
Idk if they have actually copied the book or not but it doesn't matter as in the end its done for a good cause and more ppl will be able to employ these tactics in their daily lives and improve!
@@GayKermit-._-. Nope it ain't coincidence. Many videos on youtube are inspired by that book
1st step keep this video in your watch later and continuously push back the day you watch it
This video alone is what motivated me to do daily exercise, like the day after I watched it, I started to change my life patterns, to exercise more. Currently 4 months in, just above 12 stone right now! Thank you, Kurzgesagt!
Edit 1: Still doing relatively well, now BELOW 12 stone! I'm maintaining myself well, and after making this comment, I felt more confident in myself. I still need to gain more confidence because I'll be going to college next year, but I'm doing my best. Once again, kudos to you guys. ❤

Woah
hey, how is it going?
This is so well timed for me! I'm pursuing a career as a child therapist, and I've been experiencing for myself taking small steps for a greater change!
Yes, fellow internet stranger. You can do it!
Small and consistent steps all the way!
Baby steps, I presume!
I'll show myself out ...
I love how Kurzgesagt shows us how they relate to people's daily struggles, then shows us how we can start to make our daily lives better!!
And then how to nuke something out of existance
This video helped me alot. I used to do this math and english app for 90 minutes each day. At first it was hard and challenging. But as i grew older and got used to doing it, it wasnt bad. I would listen to my favorite youtubers lifestream while doing it and i would enjoy it. At first after i stopped it seamed easy, but after a while it became hard again. Point is, even if it is a good or bad thing the highway can dissapear. if you want to stop bad habits, try replacing them. Dont try to aim big, aim for little steps. I once tried to do 100 situps everyday and i stopped after day 7. But later on i decided to do 20 situps and increase it with time and it worked. Thank you for this amazing video.
You either say: “enough is enough” when you are desperate enough for change OR you find what can motivate you before you hit your breaking point. Depends how much suffering you can tolerate until something gives way.
I've hit my breaking point literally dozens of times, I've said enough is enough dozens of times, and every time I'm like "enough is enough" sure I change a bit for like a few days but after that I get into that slump and get into that cycle again, it's been 2 years, nothing's changed
Wow thx for the advice, 20-something
Change comes from either Inspiration or Desperation.
You’ve got to address the root cause first though, or you’ll just default back to your old habits. The root cause for me was low self esteem and subconsciously not believing I could actually do it. Once I worked on those beliefs, my habits became much much easier to change
That's precisely what Kurzgesagt mentioned. You got triggered by 'enough is enough' hype, but then overtime, instant gratification took over. Instead, plan ahead, break down your goal into smaller pieces and arrange them in steps does made achievement much easier.
I’m going through a pretty bad depression right now, so this really helped me. Thank you kurzgezagt!
Whatever your current situation is, I hope you get through !
Me too😢
Take long shower whenever you feel low, for me it was like a tiny reboot and allowed me to "switch" (at least for a while) the mindset

This video nearly made me cry because I got diagnosed with ADHD about half a year ago and I finally found out the reason why some things feel so difficult. It's like the toddler is mostly in control, and my brain rarely remembers that the planner exists. I think part of the struggle is that it takes more energy to get the "planner" part of my brain going, and also forming habits is more difficult. Like for example, it takes so much energy to keep myself clean and fed because I haven't been able to form concrete habits -- so I have to use the "planner" to make myself take a shower instead of the toddler. Watching this video makes it easier to understand my brain, so thank you!
I feel exactly the same way.... hope everything turns out well for you in the end
As I've gotten older, I have found that my autistic traits are much harder to mask. I also have ADHD. Between the two, it can be pretty difficult to get things done. This video resonated with me, though, because I think back to when I was more functional and how I was able to achieve that... and it was with habits. I had certain habits engrained within myself, so the things I needed to do did not seem so hard. It feels hard to get ready and leave my house when I don't do it often. It feels hard to do my makeup when I don't do it often. It never felt hard when I did it every day. I used to wake up and hop in the shower first thing in the morning before school when I was younger. Now? Ha! It takes me forever to drag myself to the shower, and it most certainly does not happen every day. But when I think about all of the time I spend engaging in habits that aren't exactly good for me, and how I start my day by sitting up and looking at my phone, I realize that this one habit can be changed and affect the whole rest of my day, which affects the rest of my week, and the rest of my life. I don't want to die from heart disease, so I have to change my habits. I am working on it, but I could work a little harder.
for me it’s more like i’m made of velcro. any time i sit down, or play on my phone, or do something i’m interested in i get stuck. a normal person would be able to get up off the couch, while i get glued to it. it’s cool to hear how it feels for you tho!
Yeah. . . been enjoying subreddits like /r/ADHD, /r/adhdwomen, /r/adhdmeme, /r/ADHDhacks, /r/ADHDers, /r/ADHDthriving, /r/adhd_anxiety, and maybe /r/HealthyGamerGG helps me personally. Though maybe when used too much, Reddit is still a distraction as this video suggests, hahaha. At least it seems to do more about it than watching videos of cats and dogs online.

"Change is a direction, not a destination" -- I love this quote
Man, I have not watched a video this relatable in a while. I have been stuck in the same place for years. I desperately want to change and be a completely different person from my current self, but I've been feeling for a while that maybe that is the wrong approach. Learning to like myself for going in a chosen direction rather than loathing myself for not being where I want to be yet seems like a much healthier way to deal. Thanks so much for this video -- I really needed to hear it.
life is like a career. you don't start out as a ceo, you start as a coworker in the warehouse. but that doesn't mean being in the starting position is bad or not fun or dishonorable. doing nothing is.
wooow thanks for it definitively gave me an insight for my life!!
This channel has surprisingly been a huge help in my mentally darkest times, in my case by reminding me how curious i was to scientific stuff when i was a kid. Seeing this type of motivational videos from the same creator is just making me so happy. But what i enjoy more is that after watching this video i realized i actually did create myself a trigger and a habit to be better, _with_ kurzgesagt videos. I would watch one interesting space or biology video from kurzgesagt everytime i struggled to start some of my hobbies, because i had realized after watching a video with interesting context rather than a social media tour, i'm more likely to start researching since informative videos spark further curiosity in me. The very reason i watched this video was so that i could use it as a trigger to start my daily drawing routine, which i was struggling on for some time. Thank you Kurzgesagt for preparing such inspirational videos WITH the science behind it!
Honestly thou, some years back this channel helped me realize how much I like learning. So much so that now I preach the importance of learning. Everyone we know in history is remembered for helping us learn something. From musicians teaching us new songs, to athletes teaching us what the human body can be capable of, to the infamous people in history teaching us what not to do. I really appreciate this channel for helping people learn how to learn, and asking for nothing in return.

This video helped me understand my executive dysfunction so much better actually. See, I cannot build habits- I can, say, brush my teeth every morning for years, and I still have to make a conscious decision to brush my teeth every single time. I can build that mental road, but it never becomes a highway no matter how hard I try. The good news is that I don’t build bad habits, but the bad news is that every decision I make requires a lot of effort.
The way this video explained how the careful planner and impulsive toddler are supposed to work together helped me to see why something as simple as getting out of bed is exhausting. I do not have the impulsive toddler, so every choice I make is done by the careful planner.
Knowing what I am missing helps me understand how I can better make up for it. So yeah thank you for making this video!
“Change is a direction, not a destination.” really like this sentence
What? Why are you copying my comment?
Change is a target, not a designated.”
At the same time, you don't want to be practicing your whole life, only making slight improvements. You don't set out of your house without a destination in mind. You eventually want to arrive.
@Dark Knight having the exact same comment down to the period and quotation mark is a bit much to be a coincidence.
