rooting for you lil bro
Dude, you better keep your word
Get at it, get at it💪
Keep it up!!!
Good luck bro, you got this I know you do.
content consumption literally fries brains i agree
I agree with this. (me as im watching youtube shorts on 45 different devices)
@@Luigimaestro man save yourself
I can't even SEE UA-cam shorts 'cause of this chrome extension Ruff uses called 'Unhook'
What I learned from the video
1. Keep your dopamine baseline check and make sure to do delayed gratification
2. Doing nothing is better than doing something that is bad
3. The more you do it the more it compounds
4. Make sure that you’re still addicted but to good things
Thanks for this mate I really wanted the key points to improve my life. I really appreciate it man 🙏🏽
In a nutshell
1. Replace the habits you can't be proud of with those that you can be proud of (replace instant gratification with delayed gratification) in such a way that your core need is still met, just in another form. Ruff used to play video games for the satisfaction gleaned from visible improvement and achievements-now he makes youtube videos for the same, where levels are likes and subscribers, youtube achievements, etc.
2. "Bored chapter" means initially, you will realize that you are in a downward spiral of sorts (bad habits), and instead of enforcing bad habits, it's better to simply not do them and think of something else. It's ok to do nothing for a while and be bored. Being bored lowers your dopamine level, making less stimulating habits like reading a nonfiction book easier to do that it was before when you could play video games.
3. "Lonely chapter" means if you take self help in levels of 0-10 where 0 is never having done anything to improve in your life and 10 is having consistently improved yourself for years, you r current friends might be at like 2, your target is a 10, so this disparity between your goal and your environment will leave you feeling disconnected from society (sort of) and bored, which is why you should learn to embrace boredom instead of something worse for the brain.
I ain’t reading all that
The fact that this video came out on the exact day I decided to take a dopamine detox is absolutely wild
fr i decided it in a while around more than a year ( i jus decided yesterday ill detox my mind and dopamines on friday i really failed to, and then this videos comes up always by ruff on exact days)
this spring I went back to China to meet my entire dad's side of the family tree.
We had a huge reunion dinner with many children (like 5-12 years old) present.
They were ALL on a device in one way or another.
the younger ones were begging their parents for their phones to watch tik toks and the older ones were just scrolling the entire time
social media is SCARY
those kids probably only watch tik toys because their parents do without realizing how much it harms them.
it's 3 am now and I can't help myself to stop watching his videos
Yo Idk why but it’s just so chill listening to this guy
i swear it’s so relaxing and chill, i love long form videos so much it just makes it better
bro i remember when u were a kinda small youtube chanell. you grew so much wtf. proud of u
Dude, I can't thank you enough for this video. Recently, I've been falling off of self improvement and the instant dopamine was really getting to me. This video completely stole me back from that. The advice of just being bored works like nothing else. My day just turned around completely. I hope you have a great week man.
Knew most of the information but still needed to be reminded, thanks dude
wait i wanna talk about something, about leaving 18 behind because it was the age that i succeed dopamine detox.
so yeah a few days ago i turned 19, it means ive been an adult for a year. come to think about it, it was a nice year for me. i feel a lil bad because i couldnt achieve ALL my goals but still, i tried SO HARD to achieve those difficult goals, so it's not a total loss for me. every mistake i made actually made me better. i cant believe im actually thankful. bc in fact im a person who would get way too sad and frustrated about that. it's odd that im positive lately i must admit being positive is actually cozy. well yes im still not a hundred percent positive but who is? at least, no one should be. people have to learn how to use negativity for good. in brief i wrote down my new goals again and i started working for em, wish me luck and power.
gl man i believe in u
@@foo_dz thank u
You got this bro we're going to make it
wish you the best bro 😄
In Sha Allah you’ll be able to achieve your goals man. I relate with you a lot in this aspect. Many times I get 30-80% of my goals done but not the full 100% but I stopped beating myself from it. Atleast I’m not in level 0 anymore.
This is probably the vid i’ll go back to watch, its a really good summary of many helpful points from other vids
Exactly when i needed it.
just delayed a bit gratification by watching the whole 16 minute video without commenting and speeding it up 😎
Not gonna lie I don’t think that is much of a delayed gratification in the first place to be honest if you really want to do delayed gratification you should read a book instead
Note- this is just my opinion
this video is my instant gratification 💀
@@RashadImproves i rly agree, that's why i said 'a bit'. remembering i used to comment and scroll through it before finishing the video. i've also read 3 books this year and it really helped me to cure my scrolling addiction. thanks for the advice tho!
If UA-cam introduces a 3x speed feature my dopamine will be nuked.
One of the best and improtant ruff video. Love this sm thankyou👍
One of the best and most informative vid i needed
This guy is an inspiration honestly.
I like how you did a video similar to this, you even drew it yourself (I have that drawing of the two graphs posted in my door). But this video was just a more improved version of that video. Nice job man, keep doing the good work and take action!
One tip while trying to be bored dont try to like do some stuff like dont study just sit that way it will be more easy
Thank you ruff! you have helped me so much with my life. Every video you make is changing mine and others lives. I can't thank you enough for everything you have done. Good luck with your channel!
This whole video is so useful especially for self-improvement in general. For me i think this is very important to self improve like delayed gratification.

Really good video. I can relate to what you said about feeling a lack of motivation after indulging in instant gratification, that was something I struggled with for about 2-3 years. I've been on a Dopamine Detox/Reduced Instant Gratification Lifestyle for about 4 months now and I've gotta admit, it's really improved my productivity.
I was just thinking about this topic and wow here ruff knowing it through telepathy and uploading ( really got me thinking into a long zoning out session for thinking if human brain are thinking the same think at same time -)
much needd in the right moment
I needed this the most
Thank you, Ruff
First of all, I love your content!
I actually enjoy reading. I read on my e-reader regularly. Im not gonna stop reading as it does not seem and feels harmful, especially compared to p*rn and shorts. But it does make me wonder if its causing a dopamine spike.
Anyways, love your content!
same, but feel like I have to tone down the reading cuz my instant gratification is reading
I go through so many books in a month (31 for April, I'm not sure if I should be proud or disappointed ) and these books are 350 - 700 pages long
when I'm not reading I update my read list and get more books I don't have
like instead of studying for exams like even before exams I find myself reading a six-hundred-page book I can't put down
I love keeping track of the books I have and have read and I love going to different worlds through books, what do you think is a delayed gratification I can substitute for reading?
I really needed this
bro explained it better than anybody else on UA-cam fr.
Thanks a lot ruff
I can't believe that a guy like you is of my age . I really get jealous of you like how a guy could have this level of self control and mindset . But I am glad that I follow a guy like you that's a little win for me 🙂. I really got inspired by your videos and I am really on my path of self improvement not 100% but still I am happy with my new and positive self 😇🤓 . Thanks for making videos 😊
it's a good day when I see Ruff upload
Bro idk why but i want to keep you only for myself TT I'm jealous that everyone can watch your videos
THE GOAT UPLOADED
NOT THE DISCORD OVERCOOKED 💀💀
YOOO RUFF POSTED
DAY GETS BETTER WHEN RUFF UPLOADS GRAHHHH
Ice spice is that you?
@@mohsinakhalid tf?
@@trusfratedbrowngirl I was only kidding since ice spice says "GRAHH" all the time
I am proud that I've kept my phone screen time below 3 hours (although i watch videos more on my laptop now since I use it everyday for programming and stuff)
Even when I last went on holidays. Mostly achieved this through deleting all my "fun" games and social media (discord really)
Ngl this bordeem rlly hitting rn
Love you ruff❤❤❤ NO cap my life was so so so ducked and I knew I and the potential to do but I wasn't doing well and then your videos have helped me so so much and from u I came into self improvement and it has changed my life for good. Good luck to you and me haha we still have a lot to achieve ❤❤❤❤❤
Me already liking the video before it even starts playing because i know it will be good...
life changing video
Nice video I learned something new
Thanks
Give ‘em the ruff stuff
bro's my dopamine fr
your kisses at the end are the best ffs
I still do that thing of imagine some parkour guy follow me in the car and , honestly, it is still fun !😅
Yo ruff I doubt you will see this comment but I'll be glad if you do. First of all, thankyou for this video this is exactly what I needed, i have watched all your videos so i was aware of how much instant gratification i was consuming but I still did it anyway. It was getting tougher to get back on track but now I'm gonna try again.
Also, could you make a video on how to find the right career for yourself? I'm in my 2nd year of high school and I need to make a decision soon. I have seen advices that says find your interest and all, ik that's right but those advises wasn't really enough for me. That's why I was hoping if you could make a guide or something about it since I always find your advices unique and easier to understand and implement :]
(praying to God that you'll somehow see this comment)
2:00 i know the pain and i can tell that even though i romanticize the past, i dont miss those times that much
fav guy posted
I red it as fat 😭
@@VINLXY HAHAHAHA THAT'S SO FUNNY😭 imagine ruff being fat
LIT FR 🔥🔥❤🔥
I was in the bored chapter, at first I didn’t find anything interesting I was doing instant gratification, play games, studying and etc.
i want self-improvement but I don't know for what
I KEEP PROCRASTINATING
did I NEED THIS VIDEO RN ? YES
literally can't focus and i have a national exam LOL
which exam dude?
is it sth like uni entrance exam
@@suzume456 bachelor? thing ig we call it bachelor
@@ketiviv yup :)
@@missmeooww oh good luck with that ! i just passed mine last year and i understand what you're going through. 😵💫👐🏻
when sitting on the bus, I never pull up my phone unless to check the time, call someone or text or read an interesting article.
I have found that my baseline is higher as I am not bored doing menial work at my workplace
Love finally posed
Wanna tell a thankyou ✨
thanks!
Hi ruff Love you buddy❤
W RUFF POST
Nice
I don't think Ruff is watching anymore NBA highlights now that the Lakers are gone...
Yess
Heyy can you do a video about self improvement as adhd n autism? if possible
Love your videos and it will really help
Thanks 😊
yo russ long time viewer can you make a vid on how to speak to strangers more confidently? or something along the lines of that, it would help a ton. thanks
Hey, Ruff! What's your eyeglasses prescription? My left eye is -5.00 D while my right is -3.50 D with bad astigmatism. Just wondering because I read in a research paper that most Singaporeans are nearsighted.
YES I RELATE IMAGINING SPIDERMAN PARKOURING BUILDING TO BUILDING!
W vid to watch in class
Get bores instead of scrolling mindlessly on instagram or youtube!!!!!- (this is my month's moto.)
Bro my progress goes up and down so much I can't tell if the general trend is going up or if that's an illusion from all the highs I've reached.
u should watch the organic chemistry tutor
Another Ruff banger 🔥
10:00 wait what u do dat too. Bro i created a whole action move in a car ride to mcdonalds yesterday, the climax was very good
after a bit of thinking, i think having a love hate relationship with a habit seems to be the real problem. lets take cold showers for example, in my opinion i feel hot showers are better to have a healthier body in some aspects and cold showers are too, so in this way a conflict arises. and for indecisive people like me, my brain avoids conflict so i end up giving up way sooner. im trying to fix this but idk how.
Bro can you make a video on how to make timetable before exam and an exam guide
Oh, I thought 'fixing your overstimulated brain' meant you were gonna give tips to deal with sensory overload...
Feeling like shit lately 😔
Hope you feel better soon man
@@RedGrim15 thanks bud
What happened bro ❤
Sure thing 👍
I USED TO DO THE SPIDERMAN THING TOO imagining him swinging from buildings i thought no one could relate 😭
THAT MOM THING CAUGHT ME OFFGAURD
I relapsed again 😢
I've been trying to go down the path of improvements for the short time of a week. I feel like the hardest part so far for me has been separating myself from the friends I have. On one hand I can see that the progress I make alone is far greater than it is with people. But on the other hand all of the friends I made appreciate me, and want me to talk with them. I just don't know if how I can balance friendships and work while maintaining motivation to stay on the work I am doing. Is the work i'm filling the holes with not sufficient enough? Or is there some way to find a proper balance that i'm not seeing?
now we're curious who you are subscribed to haha
I unskipped two ads for you, return my money when u grow up
Ruff, Do you listen to music while studying?
How do i replace scrolling ? Just looking for opinions
10:00 thought he was gonna mention the Raindrop races 😢
bruhhhhh weeeee wantttt beat boxing😭
Important question!!
