From what I’ve heard from the vid its not about being bored it’s about replacing bad habits with better habits that create dopamine so you don’t fuck urself
@@jmg9509 lol yea, just for the likes bro, they feel happy seeing the likes cause that's the most positive thing going for them... and I can say that cause I have been there, I'm not annoyed, I just feel sad
Out of everyone I’ve watched these past 5 years I watched one of your videos and could tell it was genuine. Your time and effort is changing my life and I’m forever grateful.
For me its UA-cam man. I can easly binge watch like 5-6 hours in one session. I found that by just forcing myself to read 10 pages of anything, just puts me back in the zone and I get back to work. Thank you tho Charlie!
What Charlie just spoke about in this video is one of if not the most important changes you can make for yourself in todays modern age if you want to succeed (with the presumption that you either have goals or a project to work towards). Because the amount of leverage you extract from feeling satisfied simply by doing what you should be doing (i.e. work) is incredibly rewarding in the long run and the head start you get as a result of this compared to your competition is vastly underrated..

Thank you! Cold and hot thing is interesting. I think the hard part is the first few years + environment. Atomic habits says reduce and replace as well.
Life can definitely suck for extended periods of time and be exhausting. I’m so sorry. First go listen to this Nico Moon song Better Days either here or Instagram… I found these Channels to be helpful. Dr Scott Eilers, Mel Robins, Steven Furtick ( he’s a preacher who talks about for real every day crap) think about this….. sometimes we have to be in the dark to grow to shut out the noise. Just by you watching Charlie and commenting is proof you know deep down there’s something you were put on this earth for. 🤗
Really happy i discovered your channel. You are humble and you give out so much actionable advice in your videos its incredible. Other youtube creators would spread the knowledge from 1 of your videos into 10 videos and use lots of unnecessary filler material. Thank you so much for your content. Your video on trauma and the plateaus we cannot surpass because of our traumas was just incredible. I am working on the integration of my inner child and i can already feel how my internal subconcsious programming starts to change. I always focused on finding new information on productivity instead of focusing on the root problem. Also, that video were you described how you increase your focus (no stimuli, finishing things etc) was very helpful. I will download momentum for chrome as well. You are great, thank you❤
Cravings on the carnivore diet usually subside in 3-4 months if you stay strict. Eating salt when you get cravings or ensuring you're salting to taste when you eat can also help with cravings. Just make sure you use a good salt like Redmond Real Salt
Easier said than done. I find myself sitting down, having time to work, but simply can’t pull myself to do the work. Such a challenge. It is good to see a set of dopamine inducing wholesome activities written down by someone who has been able to overcome their urges. Something I’m trying to do right now.
Charlie, whenever you drop a video i stop everything and just watch ❤ because you’re full of useful information. you’re a genius to say in different words, and we love you.
thank you for your channel. All of your content is amazing and I learned a lot. I am trying to start an online business and have faced some obstacles but this content helps me crystallize the thought processes, actions and solutions I need to overcome them
Hey Charlie, you've given us a variety of alternatives to replace our addictions with! Every little bit helps as long as we act on your recommendations. We usually just have to find a middle ground so we don't stray too far to either side of the spectrum. Continue uploading more YT content so you can instill more knowledge into our systems.🎉😅😊
In my personal experience, i think the amount of stimulation it gives, it highly depends on the person. We are all different, some more than others, ridiculous amounts of variations between person to person. For example, i used to not liking reading, but then after doing it for months, it progressively got better and better, and better.
Week without weed. Now i just need to cut out the alcohol. Weed was actually my biggest vice but circumstances lead to weed being cut first. I know alcohol is going to be extremely tough. Worried about how to taper off properly.
Simply put: The more you feed the brain dopamine, the more your brain wants dopamine regardless of stimulus. Just change the stimulus. One I like that you didn't mention is by doubling the good stimulants as you did with socializing and board games; monopoly.
charlie your videos are really valuable but the audio takes away from it. I highly recommend you start using a high quality mic to minimize echo and maximize clarity. thanks for the great value :)
Man. My addiction is cell phones. I left pornography a long time ago, but some apps, UA-cam, Insta, I'm having trouble letting go of. I plan my week to only do what is on the agenda and in the task box, but I end up getting distracted and wasting a lot of time watching random videos. I need to resolve this..
Been through this. Temporarily "get rid" of your smart phone... Just use a Nokia - calls and texts only, no internet etc. Do this for a few weeks and your habits will change. Trust me, just give it a try
I've done extensive research on dopamine circuitry and the reward pathways. What you are doing seems to be working for you, but there is a key thing you're missing here which is that unless your neurons are literally fried from let's say cocaine addiction or a very strong stimulant of that sort, you can always go to baseline. And that usually happens are the 6-8 weeks mark. You might say: "Then why am I still feeling cravings today...8 weeks later". It's because of some cue that is associated to the habit you are avoiding (pavlovian conditioning) I completely disagree with the idea of replacing the stimulus to keep the brain from going haywire, for 2 reasons. 1: Nothing you will do will ever replace the same levels of dopamine you get from any of the habits you mentioned 2: Your brain will default to baseline after some time. 2 weeks for some people, and 90 days for others, but it eventually will. TLDR; the only way out is through. You will feel withdrawal effects no matter what you do. The good news is it's ephemeral and will teach you the lesson of thinking twice before indulging in such activities.
Top 6 self destructing habits. 1 Drinking 2 TV binge 3 Phone on social media 4 Smoking, mostly altering substances 5 Gaming 6 Porno If you cut these yes your life is boring but you will have no excuses and won't procrastinate you will put more energy into getting stuff done, goals, ambitious about your future, a better outlook on life not satisfied with a complacent routine lifestyle.
QUESTION: Hello Charlie Morgan. in a few weeks i might have a job interview. i was wondering, what is it about a potential employee that makes you want to hire them. like when your hiring people for YOUR business, what is the ONE thing that you look for. like what is the one thing that stands out about someone, and makes you want to hire them? thank you.
I think there are more things necessary to be successful than what you presented. More obstacles to remove. I have none of the addictions you mentioned, not anymore. Yet still, I am not successful. I believe I am not 100 times more lazy or stupid than you are, yet I earn 1/100 of what you earn. I've been running my small software development agency for nearly 15 years, struggling to survive, getting new clients… Recently, I learned that probably the most immense obstacle is the programs installed in the subconscious mind by the parents, their parents... You mentioned that you have a wonderful dad. I wonder where you would be today if you had an alcoholic father who was fired from many jobs, ruined his business, was beating his wife, etc.
Hi Charlie, really like and resonate with your content my man, living the same healty lifestyle like for 2 years now. Can I have a personal quick talk with you somehow?
Hey Charlie, how can we actually get aware when this crawing happens ? Like creating latency and not triggering action immediately ? This is actually biggest problem for me with PMO you can easily touch your thing. Would be amazing to see a vide about it
I'm not sure if I remember it correctly, but in one of his video I think he say when he was getting sidetracked into something, he would journal about it and write what was the thing that triggered him. I think the main purpose is to make him aware of the thing that make him sidetracked. I'm not sure if this is going to work in your situation but it might be worth it to try it.
I'm only at the beginning so far of this video. But one of my addictions is doomscrolling and by doomscrolling i find goated content like this. So the problem is > I gotta create a framework that doesn't enable my doomscrolling > but this would also mean I would miss out on this type of content > that seems like a lose lose situation for me? Jokes aside, im gonna watch the rest of the video
One of the greatest piece of a advise I got, was about so called "lazyness"(cause it doesen't exist in neuroscience world lol). Let's say, ur really too lazy to do something. So, u really get rid of any stimulation and just lay down on the bed\floor. If u are tired to do something, ull eventually fall asleep. If not, ull just get too bored, ull stand up and ull do something. Because our brains are like that, indeed. Even small portion of dopamine is better than nothing. Nothing new for me, but still a great video. Hope it reaches whoever it needs to!
Excellent video, but "I know this works because it worked for me" is why this is not a solved problem - everyone's brain is wired differently and this likely won't work for most addicts watching. Everyone needs to basically figure out what works for them, and most people won't do that work. What is the solution? I believe AI could create personalized versions of these methods for every person & help them (imagine having a human coach that tailors this video to you). Should be about 2-4 years before that tech is ready in my experience working in AI right now.
@@SarahGuzman-kv6kd I know, right? we don't need to get rid of addictions, we need to be lucky enough to be addicted to the things that are accepted and admired by the society.
Brother! You need carbs, your body is craving it, not your mind by now. Get organic fruit, sourdough bread, honey. Research a bit more please, they are there for a reason. Other than this, stay killing it.
you’re just replacing carbs with validation seeking with youtube and money. Is why meditation is so important, so just getting used to being ‘present’ and enjoying that
Basically it's all about getting really really bored and getting used to that feeling and then finding happiness in the most basic things again.
yes and it works. resetting the dopamine system to enjoy work basically
its true but most people have really high fucked up dopamine baseline, i would actually suggest starting small.
From what I’ve heard from the vid its not about being bored it’s about replacing bad habits with better habits that create dopamine so you don’t fuck urself
yes, it works … just sometimes hard to get thru that threshold
@@legitbuzhuhhow small ? For instance?

Because the amount of leverage you extract from feeling satisfied simply by doing what you should be doing (i.e. work) is incredibly rewarding in the long run and the head start you get as a result of this compared to your competition is vastly underrated..

Procrastination is something you can remove if you get to the root-cause of it, i.e., by hypnosis or self hypnosis.
To the last list I can add: Walks and being in nature.
Great way of stimulation.
