- Finding motivation is a tricky thing. Quite often I don't feel like going to the gym, making videos, or getting up before sunrise. This is the only trick I've found that works to get motivated.

Overcoming the lazy brain is the hardest yet most satisfying feeling ever.
Exactly. Your comment should be pinned over here!
Story if my life, bro... :)
@@FearlessDreams how did you guys do it ?
@@WhyNotIdk I keep reminding myself that my brain plays games with me and that at the end of the day I can either feel really bad, because I listen to it or really good, cause I overcame the noise and focused on what I originally set to do. With time and practice, it gets easier, but this "laziness" never goes away. You just need to keep challenging it. Keep you eyes on the price and you will be okay. :)
@@FearlessDreams thx man that's really helpful :)
"Let your actions dictate your feelings, not let your feelings dictate your actions"
How have I not heard that, genius!
yeah for real

Death Flare Thanks brother helped a lot 👊
Waking up early is easy but sleeping early tho... that's a whole different story 😂
well if u wake up early u will be tired earlier and sleep earlier by default
Fuad Kattan All the school work that I have to do though before I can sleep 😔
I can relate.
Kururugi same fucking feeling vro
I feel the complete opposite ! I can’t wake up early ! My eyes won’t open, my brain and my body won’t move ! I only procrastinate... but sleeping early is easy.
That awkward moment when you’re watching this at 2am and don’t know if you should wake up early the next day...
It's 00:24 right now, im thinking the same shit
@ici well actually I give a fuck, why don't you stop being toxic and go back to sleep so you can wake up for sunrise
̇ ͜ʟ ̇ depressed_chip ok neok
Samee
Literally me atm
Have y’all had this feeling when your motivated to do anything but then a minute later you just fall back down to where you ain’t motivated no more.
all the time! it sucks
I bet your brain starts making a bunch of excuses not to do whatever it was you wanted to do, you start overthinking, the moment you get trapped in your head is the moment you lose... If you want to do something, do it within the first 10 secs, after that I'll get harder and harder...
@@yankobig8612 forget the past, forget the future, the present is all you'll ever have, I've been doing some visualization, positive affimations and hypnosis before going to sleep and I've been feeling great...
You just gotta start thinking YOU ARE successful in the present
Antares yea I just gotta think positive instead of negative things. thank you for your response.
Cup of coffee social media is what gets us not motivated to do anything, we interact with people using are data/internet instead of talking in person which makes us lazy and depressed to do anything. Texting for me doesn’t feel real.
me after watching this video : ok tommorow is the day
me next day: wake up to 1pm
Well...you are not alone
Not funny, just weak
I wake up at 3pm
😂😂😂 ME!
last week I woke up at 4.45pm
it's 4am and i'm awake
because i never slept
edit: lmao i fixed my sleep schedule cuz of school so can't relate anymore bye
2021 edit: it's shit again
it's 10:16am and i still didn't sleep! looks like we are in a different league.
@@Hema115 lmao man same 10:41 and i'm awake, i eventually pass out at around 5pm tho.
yes
@@fay-qp7cn i passed out but my mom woke me up in 3:36 PM :( i only slept like 4-5 hours
Life.
I get motivated for a couple weeks, then its gone like wtf
more like couple of hours for me. R I P
•L U I S• i get motiated for like an hour than its gone
Yeah its because your just motivated by the video. You have to find a goal you want to reach so you have something that always motivate you to do it and to have a reason to do it.
•L U I S• same
I was motivated and productive for about 3 months. Now all of its gone and I just want to eat everything and watch tv.

Its a lot easier to get yourself up in the morning when you have a beautiful mountain to hike on instead of going to school and coming home and then repeating that every day
Calvin Mulder i cant, im a teenager with no form of transportation, im not allowed to walk anywhere, theres no bike or skateboard lanes we have so busses or anything and i dont have a car
That so true
Dude this is what Im saying. Youre not alone. Im 17. Im not allowed to walk anywhere or run anywhere. My day consists of waking up early, going to school, then after, Im either with my bf til he goes to work or Im home. I have no friends aside from my bf. So I just scroll on fb and in between, I take care of my grandparents. There are no mountains to climb on. Im in Florida. The sidewalks stop every so often in places and it sucks. I got a bike but my grandparents isolate me anyways so whats the use. Im always in the house if I aint in school. Its really hard to find the motivation to do anything if its the same thing everyday. School, home. No in between. We have a van that we've had for like 10 years. It barely works. Everytime we turn it on, we risk it shutting off in the middle of the road or it doesnt turn on at all. I have no form of transportation at all to go just me alone. We cant afford a new car. We cant afford insurance so I can get my drivers license. I only have my permit. Im in the most shittiest state physically due to being in the house all the time and even mentally, I get lonely being I dont have nobody to talk to or no way to go places, and I want to become a United States Marine but at this rate, if its the same shit, I dont think Ill ever get the fuck up to do such shit. Theres nothing there to go to thatll keep me motivated. Florida is the most shittiest state imo and Ive grown up in it. Sorry this is long. Thanks for listening. Just, youre not alone. I dont know what to do neither. I feel like we both need to know how to get out there when theres nothing like these views he sees, or the hikes he goes on. Not all of us have access to such beautiful sceneries or whatever it may be. Ah well.
Destiny Parker thank you for sharing almost everyone else ive talked to online dosent seem to understand because for them having places to walk and stuff is normal , when i talk to my parents about it they act like im crazy, all i want is the small freedom of just being able to have somewhere to jog, but we have no where and we have no busses , subways or any other form of transportation and town is about a 2 hour walk from home, they don’t understand how i feel because they got the freedom to walk to school and they had areas where they could go out for a run whenever they want to, i basically wasted my entire childhood on my phone, my mom complains about it but theres nothing better to do
I totally get what you mean because I used to be in a similar situation (I guess most people are at some point). But you gotta think of it that way: use whatever goals you have (even if they are vague, like getting out of your city eventually) as a motivation to do better in school and to make the best out of your situation. This is the time where you can still change so much about yourself and decide how your future is going to look like. If you fck it up now and don’t do well in school you probably aren’t Going to get into college, so you might not get your dream job etc. ....
So do the best you can and find a balance between your school life and your social/ fun life. That will hopefully keep you going (at least it did for me).
people have darkcirles this guy got lightcirles
this guy really takes a calulated sleep

It's when you figure out how much time it takes you to fall asleep and then go to sleep at a specific time to get the desired amount of sleep.

thanks for this video so much!!!!!!!
Nitzan woah im happy for you hope i can do the same
im proud of you!
I love that quote: "Let your Action dictate your Feelings" and NOT reverse. Sounds really easy, but unfortunally the thing is: Common Sense is not Common Practice. But you have given me a new perspective. Thx for that :)
And nice Van btw ;)
Your more than a filmmaker, you’re a motivational speaker😇👊
😭that means a lot, thanks so much!!
Liking and leaving a comment just to help him out and so should you!
😭 thanks so much!! 🙏
@@JakeFrew your house is so cool
Step one: Read Atomic Habits by James Clear. Your perspective on reaching your goals will completely change 👌
I keep hearing about that! I'll definitely add it to the list, thanks! 🤘
Will try this book as well!
I second that, it made a significant difference in my life. This and the one thing book +podcast
I just bought this book today!
Why this atomic habits keep popping on tiktok and socmed! Seems my sign to read it asap, thankyou for the info!
I'm just thinking "wtf with his house?"
Edit: nvm, just realized that it's a van lol
We're never guaranteed tomorrow, that's where the motivation comes from. AMAZING content
Yes!! Thanks so much Erik!!
The Japanese call this the Kaizen method. Taking small incremental steps towards improving something.
It really impacted me when you pointed out that you've NEVER regretted waking up for sunrise. Thanks for the perspective. Keep crushing it man :)
I'm gonna start waking up at 5 am and regularly taking walks outside. Sometimes I don't even leave the house for days if I'm not forced to and it needs to stop.
Šemsudin Dino Poplava me too!
@@alyssanybakken good luck
Šemsudin Dino Poplava you too:)
This video motivated me in a different way I hadn't expected. I thought I was miserable for no reason. Turns out I'm miserable because I'm not actually treading my own path in life. I'm letting people choose my path for me. Everything makes sense now. I need to start following my own path now. Thank you so much for the video Jake.
Thats kinda crazy how simple it can be but most of mankind is struggling with it
I literally watched 1:30 of this video, got up off my procrastinating a** and went to the gym. Cause I have never regretted going there when I`m done
Hahaha yes!!! I love that!

Cape King2233 Thoughts? Do you mean THOTS?
I really needed this. Recently I've been diagnosed with a lot of shit, ptsd, depression, and anxiety. I kept denying that I didn't have it, and ive been trying for months now trying to find a source of motivation. I kept thinking that antidepressants might help me get up and do something, but really its taking action and pushing myself just to stand up and do something... Sure they might help, but there's also side-effects to it. So thank you for this little bit of a push.
hey, i wish you all the best. this is your year. i believe in you, you’ve got this. stay strong! ❤️

Is what NIKE says since forever: Just Do It

Simplistic and inauthentic corporate marketing crap to me.
@@davep5647 honestly i think it's really nice. Everytime i'm feeling scared or that i can't do something, i repeat to myself "just do it" so it makes me feel like nothing actually matters and my only objective is to finish this task.
"Action leads to more action." Very true.
who else went to sleep after watching this? definitely not me.
Awesome video as always! Speaking of motivation, I heard something one time that's helped me:
"Discipline and motivation are two entirely different things. Do you think anyone is 'motivated' to do shit they don't want to? Establish discipline to do what you know you have to do, and the motivation will come from completing it. You don't have to be motivated to get shit done."
That's an approximation, I don't remember the source or the exact quote, but that idea has helped me in the past - maybe it'll help someone else too.
Cheers!
Oh man that's awesome!! I love that! Thanks for sharing Delly 🤘🤙
cool!
when you still have no motivation to get out of bed...
it's the first action mixed with consistency.
example.
go to gym once a week
then twice
then 3
do it until it becomes natural
“It’s always when your feelings dictate your actions instead of allowing your actions to dictate your feelings”
This is the problem I and many others are facing. You just got to start doing what you love doing and you’ll never regret it!
🤘yes!!! You got this!
You crushed it with this one bro. CRUSHED IT.
hello verified
Jake for president.
😭😭 thanks Jesse.
@@JakeFrew Do you have any motivation or productivity or any such course? If not then you should. You have such a great understanding of life that you can help others create the same for them. Your work is pure gold. I found you today and I this is one of my greatest findings ❤
Imo self-discipline is more important than motivation, which is only temporary
Tony Robbins once said "Motion creates emotion"
Damn this video really got recommend when I was thinking about quitting the gym❤️ thanks UA-cam
@ici damn that's very positive 💪😂😂
1. You’re a great filmmaker
2. When’s the luts coming out dude?! I’m excited for them!
Thanks so much Kylie!! I'm so sorry for the delay, things have been a little crazy but I'm really gonna try to release them in January!
I wake up at 4:37 am each morning, by the time it’s 11am I’m half way done with work. Such a great feeling.
Taking that first step and keeping it going is really important... But Why you're doing it is really important too. All about having a vision...
Very very true! The vision makes all of those small steps worth taking!
*Not motivated? Well get motivated - quote by me :’)*
Thank you so much, Jake. You have just given us a lifetime positive change in less than 5 minutes
😭 thank you!! I"m so glad to hear it 🙏
I agree so much with him, everything starts from our mind. We can't let our body control us. PUSH UNTIL YOU MAKE IT.
SO true. Waking up early is the cheese! If you can pull it off 😂 gr8 video
😂haha ya it's no small feat for me. Thanks so much!
Good for my new year's resolutions 😂
The point could be summarised.
Take the first step .
Learn to love hard work and love feeling uncomfortable. Always think about the euphoria that comes with hard work. Pretend like someone’s watching. Tell yourself, “Look at me, I’m working so hard. That means I’m fire”. That’s what I do at least.
its hard because im watching this in bed late and i shouldve gone to bed like 5 hours ago lmao
I’m having trouble sleeping right now. Literally the only time that I tried to set my alarm at 5am.
It's been a long few weeks since your last video. Hope all is well with you. How are you holding up in your van during winter?
Thank you! Ya I've been taking some time to slow down and enjoy the holidays with family. Winter hasn't been too bad so far! Definitely spending a lot of time in warm coffee shops and libraries tho 😂🙏🤘
Me: Okay, let's do this!
INTP me: smirks
Keep on truckung. Great effect in the beginning with the see through phone swipe.
Thanks so much! I had fun with that one 🤘
So I tend to go to bed around 5 am.. so this is a problem for me
Lololol same
Honestly dude, this is dope but I've always enjoyed working until 3-4 am, I feel so productive then, so, I guess I'm saying do whatever works for you.
Also, absolutely dope production value and video 🔥🔥🔥
Same!! I have always been a night person and love working late into the night. I definitely never intended to say that morning is the only time to be productive. My main point is to take action, even when you don't feel motivated. Doesn't matter if thats at 5am or at 2am, as long as action is taken 🤘
* insert comment about how you stay up late and your life is a mess *
Me too buddy, me too
I wake up at 5 everyday during the week and it feels so good to be awake and doing things before most people around you do anything but sleep.
BDre sleeping is great though, I love it 🥰
Overcoming the lazy brain is the hardest yet most satisfying feeling ever.
"Let your actions dictate your emotions...." the best words in this video!! Yaaass to always waking up at sunrise! I realize I do this even if I don't want to because work starts at 7am for me 😂😂 but my body's so used to it that even on my days off or when I'm on vacation, waking up super early just feels amazing. Love that mini coffee press by the way, need that for my "camping kitchen". Do you recommend?
Hi Antoinette!!! Thanks so much! 🙏 haha ya it's been a while since I've had an early job so now I have to force myself 😂 But yes the Aeropress is seriously the most perfect coffee maker ever! ESPECIALLY for camping! And now there's the "Aeropress Go" which is even more compact 🤘
Know why you are doing the things you are doing.
Remember where you start from to get motivated.
STAY HEALTHY, PRODUCTIVE and HAPPY
I have a great day 💚
OMG! I was just having this thought - literally - this morning. I was thinking about what drives us as humans, and why we fail so often to complete tasks or get started. We based them on how we feel. DO IT ANYWAY. :) Love this Jake! I just love your videos. I'm so glad I saw you on Alex and Adrien's channels. :)
Haha no way!! Glad we were on the same page!! Thanks so much for the kind words and thanks for coming over from Alex and Adrian 🙏🙏
When you plan to wake up at 4am but you still hadn't sleep and it's 3am
NaJean same
"no I don't think I will"
I rarely comment this type of thing, but this is a video I really really needed. I wake up from 10am to 12am and never been able to wake up any sooner because I'm the type of person to click on snooze. Never got motivation to keep doing what I was talented in and stopped everything honestly. Thanks a lot for this
Jake, we have all been there (at least “more mature guys”) It’s more tough when you are young and without a family. Once kids come along you will be totally motivated for 5 am or earlier starts. Great video!
Totally agree. Back in the days I was sleeping till 10am, after the first kid show up I have started to wake up 7am. Now the second kid is on the way and I'm thinking that 6am will be the best time to wake up and organize my day. Once you wake up in the quiet morning you will understand how marvelous is the start of the day. Thank you Jake for the video.
Noted: first small step to waking up earlier - have a kid. I'm on it.
😂hahaha thanks for the kind words!!
Just got this video recommended and dude I love this. I will check out more of your videos! :) Subscribed

2:20 - Dude, you have no idea how much THIS comment resonates with me: "I realized it's always when I let my feelings dictate my actions, instead of allowing my actions to dictate my feelings." I run a nationwide "stutterers helping stutterers" program, and we talk all the time about the interaction between behaviors and emotions. Overcoming stuttering is a tough, long process that forces us to do things that we really don't want to - but the results are SO worth the work. But I'd never heard it described in exactly that way, and hearing you put it into those terms REALLY struck a chord with me. Keep making awesome content, man! 👊

Ah man I'm so glad to hear that! Thanks Cody!!
Ive been to trying to lose some Weight for years..But I go through spells. My brain has moments. It's like my own brain has different opinions and I cant stick with just one, which makes me doubt myself. I dont know how to just stick with what i know the right thoughts are. I dont even know what my own opinions and thoughts are anymore because it feels like my brain is google haha. I'm weird and I feel like the only on alike this oof haha. It sounds complicated but helpppp haha
Wow dude thank you! I've needed this!
I was working on a bunch of things I wanted to continue in life and gave up and said “fuck all this shit I’ll never be successful” opened up UA-cam and this popped up.....
I love this. Been having a hard time getting up in the morning and was recently thinking about the smallest steps I can take to get better at it.
And finishing up my first video!!! 🙈
Yes! I can totally relate haha. You got this!!
I have been waking up before my alarm since the last few weeks- and I'm in SHOCK because I am the one who used to be up till 5 am scrolling on internet just a few months back . And I still can't digest the fact that I'm sleeping early AND waking up at 3 before my alarm rings- it's still gonna take some time to digest what's going rn NGL but oh if I did it there's no way you can't !!! I refuse to believe that you can't do it !! Even if it's takes months of regret of snoozing the alarm once again ! Go for another way , another method !! You can do it! And trust me you'll be just as shocked as me within a few months or maybe weeks!!!
the only dislikes are the people who aren’t morning people
How do you control the actual physical things that you do? You say its easy? How do you action?
just found this vid on my recomended and this vid has effected my life the most of any video!!
The title - Not motivated? Do this.
My literal search on youtube - "why we don't have motivation to do anything"
Page 125 - "Action isn't just the effect of motivation; it's also the cause of it." Most of us commit to action only if we feel a certain level of motivation. And we feel motivation only when we feel enough emotional inspiration. We assume that these steps occur in a sort of chain reaction. It's not until a major emotional life event occurs that you can generate enough motivation to actually do something. The thing about motivation is that is's not only a three-part chain, but an endless loop: Action > Inspiration > Motivation > Action etc
Subtle Art
I wake up at 6 AM every day to go to school. But after 11 years of studying I'm still not used to it. I don't know. I'm passing through my last year at high school and of course I have a kind of motivation - I need to study to pass my final exams. This will provide me with a successful future. I can't say that I don't like studying. On the contrary, I have a couple of my favourite subjects at school that make my school life less boring but it doesn't help. I tried going to bed much earlier than usually, but whenever I fall asleep it's still difficult to go to school. This sometimes drives me mad...
I kinda needed this , "dont let your feelings dictate your action" that was something , thanks
Nice job bro.....from 1 video I'm on my third
Watching your videos.....
It never gets easier, you just get stronger.
Dude ur audio is so cool and smooth! And more like satisfying! Great quality video.
If you didn't learn anything new this quarantine.
You're not lacking time.
You're lacking discipline
- I don't know where that came from-
Wtf, was not expecting to be this motivated by this video 😎🤞🏻
Dude! You’re such a great filmmaker! Love your videos! Also, good points in the video. I’m a graphic designer and I just have to get up and create everyday. The more I create the more motivated I get. Action creates motivation 💯
Bro you just FREW me into a motivational spiral
This is so well shot
I saw this video... a smile came upon my face
i pressed on it and a fortnite ad had to ruin everything.
this video was really helpful, i was actually feeling really down for the past few months and i felt like everything was pointless . i really wanna check back in a few months so i'm gonna try your advice .
If you live in Northern Canada you can wake up before sunrise 4 months a year at 9am
you know what? fuck it. i'm waking up at 4am next week
You and this video have seriously helped me get out of a dark place. Thank you :)
Great stuff Jake! We can all relate to having days like these. Thanks for giving us a great perspective and empowering people to move past mental blocks and keep reaching for their dreams
At least I got motivation to watch a UA-cam video on how to become motivated to do anything.
