- In a distracting world, being bored is the last thing most of us will ever face. But what if I tell you that being bored is the very thing that will put you ahead of 99% of people?

I set 1 hour limit to my youtube on mobile and your channel is worth watching for that 1 hour
Awww love that
Bro don’t make me blush 😳. In all seriousness though, I appreciate that
Man I was talking with my wife this week about this mindset, I’ve deleted all social media some time ago and these last weekdays on work I’m feeling very motivated to do the thing, go deep in the problems, fix everything, talk with people. Even my house is more clean, because like you said all those things it’s the hihglight of my day
I’m proud of you, bro. & I’m glad you got someone in your corner that’s willing to listen to you, and motivate you man
There's something about these videos that makes it so hard to get through and watch to the end. What you're saying is making me think about fixing my problems, lose the non-stop dopamine train I've had from all the fun videos I've been watching all day, and my subconsciousness opens another video to keep the dopamine flow going. For hours on end I keep this tab open because I know I need to be watching it but it's hard to come back and finish the entire video. This is the weirdest sensation ever like I can feel two halves of my brain trying to battle it out.
Bro, you’re basically exactly who I use to be(and probably still am if left to my vices). Im not gonna lie bro, when you’re that deep in the meta verse, it’s going to be extremely hard to free yourself from that. One thing I know for sure is that if you decide to take the steps to free yourself (no matter how small), you will make progress. Stick with it bro, and don’t burn yourself out. Don’t try to quit everything all at once because I promise you’ll be back worse than before.
@@Eli.G12 I’m gonna try this time. I already quit snacks. I just have this problem left and I’ll be closer to the person I want to be. Thanks for your help 🙏🏻
I willingly let myself be bored the last week and my mental health feels better than it has all year all I had to do was sit there bored and allow the boredness instead of going to alleviate it
You are what i needed right now. Your content and thoughts. Thank you.
You’re welcome🙂
Well said, great video as always. Nice that not everything is loud and 100mph here on UA-cam.
So I’m guessing this is the chill side? Lol, and thank you man!
@@Eli.G12 ow yeah super chill
@@Eli.G12 haha definitley the chill side!
The algorithm did me a solid and passed me your channel at the perfect time. I'm ready to start making changes for myself, too. I'm here on this journey with you, brother! Stay strong
The gym picture 😂😂😂😂 w the explanation was golden 👌🏾
Things like this really get me to appreciate the stories that my mom used to tell me about when she studied by candlelight back in her day.
Deep Work also comes to mind as something beneficial when quitting social media
Thank you for this video; I deleted instagram and Snapchat for the month of November. Since I found your videos I realized that I’m addicted to UA-cam now (I always have been). You’ve inspired me to really quit my addiction with my phone.
I have a serious UA-cam problem and i delete the app of my phone now. Thanks for the inspiration to do that. We all have to fix our own problems an i think you are a good inspiration to do that.
This was a great video. I recently deleted my social media and it’s hard. But I know it’s necessary. 😩
Yes! One day, you’ll wake up & don’t even realize it’s gone. It’s going to get to a point where you don’t even want to go back anymore
You're literally reciting everything I was telling myself 7 years when I was 19 ... damn I wish I made content lol.
I’m so grateful the algo sent me your way. I’ve been aware I’ve been UA-cam/phone addicted for awhile.
Quitting IG & FB was easy but losing YT is gonna be a challenge. However I really believe I’m ready to get off this ride & try more of real life.
Seeing you do it lets me know it’s possible for me too!
idk if you realized how heavy the "I have no spotter" part was.
😂😂😂 nah facts!
That voice💥. Its like a lion roaring
im gonna uninstall yt too and WILL NOT install it before the end of this year...u really helped me realising how bad it is...i knew it but wasn't taking any steps but im gonna do it rn
tho i have exams next month but im gonna use yt only on my laptop with some extensions which hide recommendations and all that so i will only focus on studies...i have subscribed to u..keep posting the awesome content 😎🙏🏻
take care meet u all after new year🫶🏻✨
great video as always
Thank you for the support!
Thanks bro. I quitted social medias around 5 months ago, but, just like you, became addicted to UA-cam. Now I'm gonna quit it too.
Greetings from Brazil
I think your a good chanel for young people. Keep it up
Yo dude, great video! Recently discovered this for myself. The value of boredom is understated, in our world of quick-fix dopamine hits. Boredom is like eating healthy-if you eat junk food, you're never hungry for the real nutritious foods. However, if you cut out the junk, you begin to develop a real, sustainable appetite for the nutritious stuff. It's not as exciting or satiating at first, sure, but after a while, it becomes filling. Being bored-staring at a wall in the evening instead of playing on the phone, reading, playing the guitar, etc, will recharge your passions. Can't recommend enough!
Thanks for these videos man
excellent advice! thank you 🙏 i will keep this tabbed up in my browser for now. i will keep this tabbed up in the back of my mind forever
I am so glad I found your YT channel, your videos are really good and interesting. I really needed someone to tell me what I denied for too long. Thank you
Its a bit more than that. When we're overstimulated, doing things in the real world that are helpful to us just seems less appealing as they give us a smaller dopamine shot. So we're overall less motivated to even try. And when we do end up doing things out of obligation, it just doesn't feel good.
On the other hand, if we stay away from high dopamine activities, we can actually feel good about doing difficult tasks. Because hey, the brain is supposed to reward us for every obstacle we overcome in the world. The brain has been trying to help us all along. So lets give it tasks and obstacles that are actually worth spending time on. Being curious about seeing what next tiktok or reel we are gonna watch is simply not that important of a task to reward ourselves on.
Thankyou so so much man!!! This video will be a great help. I've been trying to wonder how to stop this nasty cycle of time wasting im going through. I will definitely follow through this, i promise!
No problem no. Check back on here after 30 days & let me know how it’s going
Hey man, thank you for this content. Really needed this!
I honestly thought that this channel would be like an Andrew Tate-type of alpha-sigma-gamma male mentality, but its not and its such a gem. I have to 100% agree with most of your points, and I have even experienced this myself, in mid-2021, when covid lockdown was still (semi-)ongoing in my country, I had already played every game multiple times through and even the ones I pirated I had finished several times over [you can probably guess why I had so much time from 2020-21], now bored with nothing better to do, I just decided to take up art. I got okay-ish at drawing, I learned the basics of blender from blenderguru, bought a udemy course and learned that, took up learning another software as well, did some very minor projects with those software, and I remember that I was so happy with those (even if they looked like shit), because I was at least learning something new with every failure/overlook/fault and then after december 2021.... well lockdown ended, and with that ended all those things too.
Got occupied with school, thought that it took too much time to learn new stuff, so I just defaulted to playing games in my spare time again, and then my mental state plummeted. Now, I am 18, doing shit at school but trying to improve nonetheless. 2023 just hasn't been my year, some (quite a lot) of the faults were mine alone, a few were out of my hands. And this video (and quit social media vid) really helped me realize I should probably get back into this, both studies + learning. Picked up reading again; started studying semi-properly again; blocked quora, reddit, instagram, twitter, even blocked youtube shorts; installed apps on my phone and extensions on my laptop browser that help me combat against essentially, brain rot from doom-scrolling; picked up guitar again; started cycling.
I am not in the absolute best mental state rn (got 2 months to give an exam which has the entire syllabus of which I have prepared nothing for lol) but I am trying to get it back on track.
tldr ; Love the vids, keep it up, some sage advice here, I agree with this vid as I can relate heavily ❤
I fw ya content bro 💯🙏🏾Hope to see you continue to elevate 🙌🏾
I honestly don’t think I would’ve graduated high school with my great marks if it was this day and age - I matriculated just when smartphones were starting to be popular- 2010.
Embrace hard work
Inspiational 🙏
I am really interested in this problem! I'm going into my final semester of college, and looking back, I realize I spent large amounts of time on UA-cam, more than I'd like to admit! I'm curious if there is a way to redesign our relationships with our phones to prevent people from falling into the trap of doom scrolling. I'm working on developing a mobile app that might help someone moderate their phone use. I'm curious what others think, are there any features on your phone that could help you moderate your phone use other than what is already provided?
06.12.2023 today is the day i will start the change
1- try study +10 hours everyday
2- get up early everyday
3- no youtube more than 1 hour
4- 1 episode of naruto or some show
this is just a promise to myself.
LOVE FROM PAKISTAN BRO
um salve aqui do Brasil! Obrigada pelo video :)
Skip and dd are haunting me. The only way to feel happy w/o dr*gs is w food. Corn on the cob is cr*ck if you dont have cr*ck. Jk. No cr*ck xp here.
See you on july 2nd i guess we'll see how it goes
still gonna watch one piece on Saturdays tho
felt like this ended up on my recommended page for a reason, and I'm grateful! i am intrigued by how i can implement this, especially with one of my main love languages being spending quality time, and with reframing there are a couple ways to think about it - 1. this is another avenue of opportunity for me to give myself that quality time that can make me a better person, to then make the world a better place too, and 2. it can help with working towards even more of a secure attachment style/complex, especially when it comes to how our mindset is when we are looking forward to as well as when we actually are spending quality time with our loved ones to begin with, and focusing on our stimulations there. it's good to feel emotions, nevertheless the aspect of stimulation is very important to consider when processing and regulating them, and maintaining ourselves. what an insightful perspective, thank you for sharing your wisdom and mind with us all, and sending good vibes
Great video some astute points well made. I always try to turn my WiFi off on my phone a couple of evenings a week. Easier said than done though lol. Being occupied with uour 'self' allows you more time to concentrate on priorities
your content along with sprinkles of Dr. K from healthygamergg have been really helpful in making me active about decisions in my life. thx!
