@aliabdaal I couldn't join the workshop even though I've signed up
1. figure out what your priority is, the most important tasks. instead of doing too much, become concise (3-4) on your goals. if i only had 2 hours a week what would i do?
2. focus on progress
3. bargain with yourself about what you want to do what you should do
4. have a flexible routine
5. just pick a thing. it is easy to doubt yourself over what youre doing but instead of overthinking something just stick to one thing for a long enough time
STG was looking for this comment only! THANKS!
This video reminded me of the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad " the best deeds are those that are most consistent even if it's small. "
Amazing reminder, thank you!

PBUH ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ absolutely 💯
Every week I struggle to stick to my budget and make disciplined financial decisions. It's like I always find myself spending more than I should.
I totally get it. It's tough to stay disciplined, especially when it comes to finances. I've been there, and sometimes it feels like I'm just spinning my wheels.
Yeah, discipline is key, especially in the financial aspect. I've found that setting clear goals and tracking my expenses really helps keep me on track.
That's a good point. I've been trying to budget and stick to it, but it's hard. Even to lnvest
Well for me one thing that helped me was getting a good and relaible finànce advisor. Someone who would grow my portfolio. I started 2 years ago with this man..
His name is Eric Paul Elmer
As a growing 18 years old teen. You are one of The UA-cam Mentors that I'm learning from.
Yay 🎉 I wish I had Ali when I was 18. I’m 33 now. Glad you’ve found him to learn from.
Can you list a few more content creators like ali (mentors you are learning from)
Hamza Ahmed for masculinity and mental health.
Iman Gadzhi and Alex Hamozi for money and business.
brother, Join Adonis Gang made by Hamza.
You can find the link in some of his videos.
That's where we young men help either other and give advices.
You can ask questions there.
@@nonpoppinchannel1930 thanks bro, I've just checked it out (I mean the guy hamza) and I must say he has got something right at so many f***ing levels.
Not yet sure about adonis school it's 129$ so I need a lil more insight but primarily I feel it's worth buying.
I really like that these videos are well-credited, well organized, and well-presented. I've seen a lot of comments about how this content is repetitive, but I have been watching for years and I'm still learning a lot from these, and honestly, I'm glad these messages are reinforced, and updated with the latest publications, so I can try and continue to be consistent.
Well said!
Fully agree! These lessons need to be heard repeatedly to stick, at least for me ❤
People fail to understand that it is repetition, routine and consistency that get you forward. It's borinng but it works. All successful people have some sort of routine they use.
Valuable takeaways to be consistent: 1. Make things easy to do, 2. Acknowledge our desires but bargain with ourselves to be consistent with witty desire grants, 3. For every goals, have three high-low level of ways to achieve & maintain consistent momentum 4. Stick to one system that suits you and transform your craft better, 5. Stick to do the things and dont quit
Ali. I find you so genuine and kind, your advice is so well thought out and tried and tested, for the most part that it eels like a kind, gentle nudge towards making my life, just a little bit better each time I watch one of your videos! You're making the world a better place, Ali! keep up the excellent work!!!!
Awesome advice Ali. Your videos are always gold! Learned a ton from your organization, studying, and UA-cam growth videos. One thing that’s helped me a lot with discipline if to set small “nudges” around my work or home to remind me of my goals. Even something like phone wallpaper 🙂
Ali, your videos has become much more relaxing and slow that I'm able to follow your speaking style and I understand the content more now. A lot of your videos has helped me. Keep inspiring. ❤
Thanks Ali! This is exactly what I need to hear right now. I love your way of communicating the data. To the point but with great examples.
I love your videos so much. Never thought that I can relate with someone so much. Bless the algorithm.
Out of all your videos which I have watched, this one is an amazing one, rock solid. I need all these points to concentrate in my life and be insistent with these things, not quit, continue, find time, thanks for reminding me again.
When you said you are doing too many things at a time, you spoke to me.
For a very long time, I thought I was going crazy when I couldn’t just get myself to do anything but watching this video and also doing more research I realised that the reason I couldn’t be disciplined with myself was because I was doing too many things at the same time.
Thanks Ali you are a real one ❤️
One of your best videos in a while, I loved this one!!
This was so enlightening. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Truly, as someone who struggled with trauma et al for nearly 30yrs, I have been doing IFS Parts Therapy for not yet a year and it is AMAZING. Total reframe. Highly recommend, and despite all the introspection and healing and growth I had tried to do by myself and with other counsellors, I did not know this existed until I found this therapist and that was her method of work.
Thank you so much Ali. I am the old person who had commented on one of your video and never expected you to create this video. Thanks for the video with lots of love
Thank you for creating and sharing this incredible video! It has made me align a lot of thoughts in my head 🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing the ideas on higher/lower self and your example of how to "talk to" the lower self (in my case: read-stories-and-snack-for-hours-self). I'll try to implement the negotiating an compromised idea to the lower self next time!
I love ali abdaal philosophy towards discipline.❤❤❤
Such mind opening points Ali, I feel it's been my whole life that I have been struggling with discipline and consistency and everytime as you also mentioned we try to find that new/better path to sort of fix or make it better in place of just doing the easier thing which is sticking to that one thing and not switching. Thank you for this video... it really felt as if it was made for me.
so beautifully, so neatly explained. thank you Ali.
Ali I came across your UA-cam channel and after listening for a while I must say thank you. You have got me started again.
I wish you all the best and happiness Ali ❤
looking forward to the workshop ali!!!
Hey Ali, I love watching your videos every morning when I make breakfast. Such a great way to start off the day and feel motivated ✨it gives me courage to keep posting videos despite my small (but growing) following!
Keep going🙌🏻
Brilliant magic moving your book on top of the other at the start!!
Such a refreshing and heartening video. Thanks Ali for bringing your educated yet always relatable perspective on these topics. It really feels like a breath of fresh air amidst all the overwhelming advice out there from people like Iman Gadzhi (or Adrià Solà Pastor in the Spanish-speaking community). Not that there is no truth in what they say, for sure there is, but watching too much of their content consistently makes me feel hopeless and ashamed, while your video gave me a sense that progress is achievable and valuable. Believe it or not, I had never commented on a UA-cam video until today.
I loved this video! Thank you so much for all the amazing content, Ali!
I've been watching you from 2019...this video after years was simply hitting, serene, insightful, easy to digest.
I asked for your book for my bday :) can't wait to read it, your videos are like life changing !
Regarding #2 - I definitely feel that one. I would tell people to break down whatever you want to do into small pieces or steps, and if you're still not doing that, to just simply break down those steps into even smaller steps and eventually you can do the small things and go from there.
I couldn't agree with this more - "getting yourself to do something that you don't feel like doing" - this is life. If you push through then eventually amazing things will happen.
As I'm on my 20s there are alot of times where i wonder why I'm not discipline.. instead of structuring my system which after watching the video made me realise the wrong things that I'm doing which is shallow work..😊 thank you so much Ali this insights will truly help me be more productive and discipline towards my goal
What was said in the Progress Not Immediate Success section was a good reminder about my lack of patience. My obsession with achieving results in a short time is a frequent topic in my conversations with my psychologist.
Great video!
Sounds familiar
Thank you so much, I really needed this rn for myself and also for the school presentation I am doing on self discipline 😁
Another fantastic video, Ali, and one of my favorites of yours. I've been following your channel for years, am always pleased and surprised there are still so many things to learn -- I made notes after this video! I'm a freelancer recovering from an injury, and balancing everything and trying to find a routine is exhausting. This video was really valuable in helping to puzzle through that. I also appreciate your honesty speaking from your own experiences about things that worked, and others that didn't. Thank you. (Glad you're enjoying Horizon: Forbidden West, too! The Lady of Lore has some great Horizon vids to listen to.)
Waiting for a podcast with your video editor ali!
Love the video!
So nice to hear you're like everyone else. You still have your falls.😢Great to hear from someone who is successful interview other successful people with similar démons
I found that it is hard for me to start a new thing. I just tell myself 'Have a break.' With time going by, I finish nothing finally and regret myself. From this video, I know that I can do it in a small step, even making mistakes. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. It is normal.
I really relate to point four! I was a lot more disciplined when I had a full time job and have been struggling with motivation and have had no proper routine! Glad I am not the only one and looking forward to setting some structure to my life :)
I’ve been having trouble finishing my capstone mostly because I’m being a perfectionist and I feel like people are going to be disappointed no matter what I do. This video really helped me, thank you!
What a great video! I love the relaxing music on the background too, I put immense pressure on myself to be more productive, and like you said, i take on too much stuff! This helps destress me in order to work on what's important!
Wao, thank you so much. I am sending this to my wife and son now
!
wow mind blowing, thank you for your content!
Great video Ali. Thank you for putting this together. The one thing that I am going to be working on is “taking on less things” as I take one too much. It is hard but I have to do this to do the essential things.
these are really helpful tips. thanks ali!
I love that you got a therapy session with Dr. K. ❤
Loved this content, PLUS it was the perfect length for a simultaneous home workout!
Haha well that’s efficiency right there
What ali abdaal wears on his right hand, what was that, what its use ??
This is an AMAZING video!!! Thank you, so helpful
Hey Ali, could you tell us how to get out of the comfort zones through a video?
And thanks for empowering us everyday ❤❤
I can relate on always finding the "right" tool/productivity app, and end up not doing anything that contributes to my life goals. Thank you for this content, Ali! Always valuable.
Ditto
Great insights on discipline, especially the part about the Lower and higher Self. Entrepreneurs can apply this by recognizing when they're operating from a place of instant gratification and instead focusing on long-term value creation, which often requires delayed gratification and strategic planning.
Just so true words
I’ve been searching and scrolling yt to get myself disciplined
Helli Ali, thanks for all your videos! You are the best, I am reading your book right now on German :D
BOOM!..everything i needed to hear in one video..thanks
Great insights! Making work enjoyable while focusing on the process rather than just the outcome can make discipline feel more natural and less like rolling a boulder uphill. ⚖
thanks for your golden advice
Thanks for this man!
This really helped. Thank you ❤
This is the most helpful productivity video I have watched
Honestly, I would say you are a source of inspiration for me. I really need this video thanks for sharing this informative concept for us.
Agreed
I quit my Big Four job about a month ago and I have experienced what Ali went through when he left medicine. This video means so much to me because a flexible routine will work much better for me now 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you, this is very helpful!
I watched and actually learnt things thank you.❤
here i am learned a lot from your video then trying to apply every single of your suggestion to my daily life
The process of doing something over and over again day over day
I loved this video. I’m surely coming back to it
Honestly, this video could be life changing for me!
Thank you so much for this video
This is what we are missing.. thanks🎉
STAY HARD AND STAY WITH US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is such a good video.. thank you 😊
1.the main thing
2.progress not immediate success
3.the lower self and higher self
4.flexible routine
Thank you for this, I tried watching that podcast and it was too long TBH! I just could not finish it. I have decided to start by doing everything at the bare minimum for 5 minutes and then building it up. I never thought it would be that easy.
This is golden advice and quite surprising that this video has so far only received less than 1k likes, when the messages in this video are so huge and important. You are a gem Ali!
Taking notes ❤
Great video as always 🙌🏻
Thank you so much for your videos. They've been a lifesaver for my ADHD brain. I don't take meds because I had very bad experiences with being prescribed wrong meds as a child and so I try to manage on my own. Its so hard not to feel like a failure sometimes when I feel absolutely stuck between all the millions of things on my to do list. Your videos have not only given me the tools to start building self discipline, but also have made me feel so much better about the times that I still feel stuck and need to just take a mental break. So anyways, you are very appreciated!
Hi, I like the way u edit your videos, so maybe u can make a video regarding how to make edit a video or will talk about necessary tools?
Thank u for ur channel, keep going man!
My guy your hair has incredible volume now. I love it.
seriously, would love to know the secret
Me too!
For me a key way I improved my self discipline was working for myself. Knowing that what I put in directly impacts the output quickly kicked my arse into gear!
Ah, being "strategically mediocre" in most things is exactly what I've been working on this year. It sounds so bad, but I just need the time back for higher impact projects!
Recently found your channel and I really appreciate your calm, practical and 'non-hyped' approach to these topics. Tired of all the 'bros' telling us what to do xP
You made my day ❤
This was so beneficial
I’d love for you to do a video on Brendan Burchard and the growth day app! I’d love to hear your take on his program!
jazakAllah khair 😇
Is it just me or Ali had reduced his speaking speed? Whatever it is always loved your content Ali. Thanks for sharing such wonderful and thoughtful videos.
He looks drained or something, guessing he's out of caffeine
Thanks, Ali. This was really helpful. I have a quick suggestion that you might want to try removing the background music or lowering it a bit. The way you discuss stuff is excellent and engaging already.
According to the video, it is about 5 actionable tips for self-discipline learned from Ryan Holiday, a bestselling author.
The first tip is to focus on a few things. The speaker says that it is difficult to be disciplined if you are trying to do too many things. He recommends limiting yourself to 3-4 goals per year.
The second tip is to identify your main thing. The speaker says that it is important to identify what is most important to you in life and focus on that. This will help you to avoid getting overwhelmed by all of the things that you could be doing.
The third tip is to create a system and stick to it. The speaker says that it is important to find a system that works for you and then stick to it. This will help you to reduce the amount of decision-making that you have to do on a daily basis.
The fourth tip is to be flexible with your system. The speaker says that it is important to be flexible with your system so that you can stick to it in the long term. For example, you might have a goal of working out three times a week, but you might allow yourself to skip a workout if you are not feeling well.
The fifth tip is to don't quit. The speaker says that the most important thing is to stick with your system and not give up. He says that if you can stick with something for long enough, you will eventually be successful.
Great video Ali
Discipline motivation etc I believe that everyone will get to those moments of realization when it's time for them to finally learn and digest the lessons and purpose of their lives .
It's a moment that's a fraction of a sec when everything makes sense and there u are Disciplined and fullfilled like never before .
Great video for especially in the Forex Markets
Setting a goal and know why you want to achieve that goal can go a long way setting up discipline every time you want to work towards that goal.
This video was wonderfully edited, beautiful music
thank you
There is a sort of pleasure in doing hard even if you are not feeling like it. It won't take long until Goggins mindset becomes your new norm
I'm upgrading. THANKYOUUUUUU
