*_Have you heard of IKIGAI? It's how i found out what i wanted to do in life_* Ikigai (reason for being / your purpose in life) has four primary elements: What you love (your passion) What the world needs (your mission) What you are good at (your vocation) What you can get paid for (your profession) My Ikigai is making animations on youtube, mainly about personal development
I definitely agree that knowing how you want to feel is more important on what you want. There were times when I achieved my goals and I was still unhappy. I beat myself up about it feeling so ungrateful but I never got specific on how I wanted to feel.I feel like if we set the standards intentionally before we reach our goal it's easier to avoid / let go of what we don't want.
The thing is.. I have SO many things I want to do. And I have a lot of things I’m good at also. I know that what I do HAS to involve helping people. I really want to be a therapist and help people any way I can! But also by making UA-cam videos and creating a blog to start helping people now! There are also other things I want to do but it has to involve helping people! I know I have time to figure this stuff out, but I really want to jump start on this!
It has been three years I do your workbook every new year and I am so thankful to you Michelle for everything you have brought to my life ! Thank you for such meaningful contents !
Thank you so much for this video! Due to health issues I quit my job and I'm going back to school in August so I can get a new job that doesn't hurt my body, but I have no idea what I want to do for a living. Will absolutely do the workbook! Again, thank you💕
I really loved this video so much. I just graduated from college and I feel this immense amount of pressure from everyone around me to figure everything out, without really knowing what I wanted in life. I felt so jolted to take in everyone's advice about what I should do, that it was hard to see what I dearly wanted. This video was so enlightening and it was exactly what I needed in this moment. Thank you so much for creating content like this!
Hey Michelle! I just did the workbook, and I was honestly surprised when patterns emerged that I had not anticipated. I feel like I have a much clearer view on what I want now, and apparently I am much more boring than I thought haha Thank you very much for all the content you put out there! I always fall back on listening to your videos while I do a deep clean and put my life back on track. It really helps to ground me and makes me care about and reflect on my life again. You're work has such a positive impact on me, thank you so so much.
Thanks for the video! Just to clarify, the 80/20 principle goes even more back - it is originally formulated by Vilfredo Pareto (just though the guy should get the credit haha).
Michelle, I can't even tell you how much I appreciate your content. ❤ I unfollowed most UA-camrs recently, feeling like they were selling out to companies which did not align with their values at all. Except for you. You just keep inspiring me and never try to promote anything that you don't fully support. You add a ton of value to many peoples lives with your work. Thanks for being such a genuine human. 😘
hey!! i had to take the day off sick from work, i always feel so stupid and worthless when this happens so i needed to feel like i was atleast doing something productive for myself. I've been watching your videos and following the excercises you give in a little sketchbook and it has turned out to be the best day!! having so much fun and feeling so great about my life right now, wanted to say thank you, without you i'd still be sad in bed!!
I’ve been struggling with growth and figuring out what I want, trying to living an intentional and purposeful life - this video has put a smile on my face and given me a lot of guidance 😌✨ thanks a big much!
My dear Michelle, I’ve been following you for a few months and I’m so thankful to the Universe for discovering you and your can’t even imagine how much I’m so grateful toward you. Thanks to you I’m going to start my channel (after many years of doubt). I watched literally all your videos on channel notes and followed all the advices you gave us. You are such a wonderful human being, and I know that without even knowing you personally. Finally, thanks to you (again) my productivity is on fire. I know I will achieve so many things by the end of the year and I can’t wait for these to happen. All the good things that will happen to me, I will always have a thought for you because you one of the factor of my success and I will be forever grateful for this. Lots of love xxx
I printed out the workbook shortly after this came out, but only today got up the courage to sit down and do it. This is something I find myself doing a lot - not starting something I want to do, just because I'm not sure how to start, or afraid of doing it "wrong," or waiting for the "perfect" time to do it. And now that I've done it, honestly, my apartment somehow feels like a slightly different place, like I'm now viewing it and the world around me in a different (better) light. As you say at the beginning, it'll certainly take more time and practice to implement all these discoveries from my workbook, but just pointing out the patterns that I do so blindly I didn't realize how connected they all were makes such a huge impact. Thank you for ALL of these videos you post! They seem like magic! :)
Sometimes I forget the sheer level of insightfulness and information that each of your videos have. Definitely needed this one, as I just started my first job out of college and am quickly falling into the work-home-work trap of a routine. Love that your videos provide small actionable steps to take to change an aspect of your life, it makes self-improvement seem a lot less daunting.
I didn't even know I wanted this video! I am at a point in my life where I feel like I'm choosing between the safe, easy, but slightly more boring or the risky, scary and exciting... It's whether I move abroad and go live with my grandmother in Greece for a while. Gonna do those exercises and hope they'll help!
Hi Muchelle - thank you for your magical videos! I found your channel a couple of nights ago while watching How To ADHD videos. I just printed your workbook and I’m going to begin it in a few minutes. I’m in a deep dive transition phase and I’m so grateful for such a fresh new perspective on intentional life planning. I really struggle with structure but your video about looking at everything as an experiment as opposed to my lack of self-discipline completely shifted my whole self-loathing vibe. I’m ready to try again with an open and more optimistic mind. So really truly -THANK YOU!
Definitely have been binge watching your videos & went back to when you first started. Loving your content and how you always refer to your resources such as books, people etc
What does *"20% of your activities"* even mean, and how do you determine it? For instance, does my job not count as 20% of my activities, since it takes up like 80% of my week? Or does it mean, say, out of 10 of your activities, pick the 2 that drag you down the most (although this doesn't make sense)?
This was truly excellent. I haven’t mind-mapped in awhile but do find it it useful. I hadn’t heard of the 80/20 rule in relation to the way you described it, but it makes a lot of sense. The inversion method sounds intriguing, & I think I want to try that one next. Thanks for sharing a great vid!
Love your videos. Really helping guide me to sort out my life and figure out how to get where I want to go. So thank you so much for creating. Much love. Dx
Love this video. I read the 80/20 too and here I am pursuing youtube is my positive eating really Whole Foods and my negatives were actually a few of my “friends”...
Love the 80/20 analogy! Great video Muchelle. I loved it. You sure do know how to inspire people including other self love content creator like myself! Thank you!! ❤️
D.E.Y.A : I completely can relate and agree with your comment! I love the 80/20 analogy too and Muchelle's channel is amazing and her ChannelNotes one too! She does know how to inspire people, especially creators like you and me! Keep going and never quit! Wishing you nothing but success with your UA-cam channel and in life girl!!
THIS VIDEO QUALITY THO - YASSSS 😍🌸🦄Michelle, you always inspire me so much to step up my own videos! ✨feeling so inspired by your constant improvements ⭐️
Michelle I've been pondering this question for years now. Kind of sad since I'm in my mid thirties. I'm so grateful for the workbook and ideas you provided in this video. Thank you for always providing thoughtful actionable content for us to improve ourselves.ETA: I just took your survey and HOLY SHIT I'M SOOOOO EXCITED at what this could mean for the future!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxox
I loooooovvvvvveee your videos! Ah! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into providing inspiring and helpful information. I completed the workbook and I feel like I finally have a sense of what I want and what's been draining me, mentally and emotionally. You're so freakin' amazing! Such a cool person to look up to. I can't wait to watch more of your videos and start getting my life together. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for this video, I really needed this. I've been really unhappy and everything you said really resonated with me. You are such an inspiration xxx
Thanks for the video Michelle. I'm struggling to figure out what I want out of life. Also, thanks for sharing a completed example version of the workbook. I am always at a loss of where to begin despite being given guided questions. Examples are the best way I learn to think for myself.
I was really late to one of Sarah Hawkinson's older videos where she mentioned your channel and, because of that video and that shout-out, I found your channel! This is the first video of yours that I watched and I am already in love and I subscribed. You are amazing and beautiful. I adore what you promote and believe in. Stay awesome.
You are truly amazing! I've finish the workbook step by step with this video, all your methods are really practical. And I've learned A LOT!! Thank you so so much
Thank you so much... For uploading video... After watching your videos..... I m really feeling gud... And confident what I should do in life.... You are great
Hi I just found your channel, I loved this video. Been feeling a bit low in life, I’m so happy I’ve found your channel it gives me a happy vibe (this sounds so weird, but I’m just very glad I’ve found your channel) 💕💕💕
How I want to feel... Heck yes! I love to question myself that. That is honestly something I need to ask that more often since I try to do too many things each day.
Love the video! You truly are so inspirational :) Thank you for all the effort you put in to sharing your knowledge and helping others! Also, loved the ability to help out with the survey. It was a fun way to feel "involved" and interact with you. This is clearly for a specific project, but I think you should use this type of feature again in the future- maybe to help with ideas for content, etc if you're needing some inspiration.
Hi Muchelle! Have you heard the acronym HSP (Highly Sensitive Person). I can definitely relate to it and thought of you as well. Might be something to explore in a video. Just a thought. Love your videos!
*_Have you heard of IKIGAI? It's how i found out what i wanted to do in life_*
Ikigai (reason for being / your purpose in life) has four primary elements:
What you love (your passion)
What the world needs (your mission)
What you are good at (your vocation)
What you can get paid for (your profession)
My Ikigai is making animations on youtube, mainly about personal development
icky gay?
What an awesome concept!
Easy to say but not easy to answer those questions
so, what is your mission for making animation?
Dude I dont know what I am good at . I need to figure it out
This is the best video. I got back to it every 3 months. It's my number one on my self care list : watching this video.

Playing and acting out brings me happiness.
These exercises helped me realize how much I was wasting my time with things that were having such a negative impact on me. Thank you Michelle ❤️
I NEEDED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH TODAY 😪
Thank you very much 💖💖
I appreciate YOU so frikin much! Love your advice especially because you do the interesting research ☺️
Same! What she said!

Wow, only 20 sec in, but the quality and the light and design of this video are soo good! Amazing job!
Thank you for this video. I’m making a “Start, Stop, Continue” list and a “5 Year - What would I be unhappy with?” now. I am so excited!
Lyndal Martin You got this! 💕
I need to watch this several times... your content is sooooo good🌹🌹🌹
Thanks for the video! Just to clarify, the 80/20 principle goes even more back - it is originally formulated by Vilfredo Pareto (just though the guy should get the credit haha).

Some serious credit is deserved here for covering a deluge of materials in a short amount of time, well done.
I printed out the workbook shortly after this came out, but only today got up the courage to sit down and do it.

Thank you for ALL of these videos you post! They seem like magic! :)
Bro you just got me me to ask myself questions I’ve never asked myself and now I’m over here reevaluating my entire life 😂😭
Sometimes I forget the sheer level of insightfulness and information that each of your videos have.
Definitely needed this one, as I just started my first job out of college and am quickly falling into the work-home-work trap of a routine. Love that your videos provide small actionable steps to take to change an aspect of your life, it makes self-improvement seem a lot less daunting.
Totally re-watching this is prep for some journaling today !
I didn't even know I wanted this video!
I am at a point in my life where I feel like I'm choosing between the safe, easy, but slightly more boring or the risky, scary and exciting... It's whether I move abroad and go live with my grandmother in Greece for a while. Gonna do those exercises and hope they'll help!

I watch this video and take 1-2h of reflexion on this every month now and it helps SO MUCH ! Thank you :)
Just took the quiz can't wait for your special project to come out❤
Awesome video with some great tips 🙌🏻 love how you don’t give the generic “drink more water” advice but researched, psychology based advice
The title alone lets me know this video is going to be soooo helpful for me!!!
That workbook is amazing!!!
Your videos are hitting the nail on the head every single time for me! Loving the new title graphics too 💞
There are some serious warm tones in this video, love the new colour grade!
I'm currently reading the Four Hour Workweek, and then this video comes up. ✨ Yay universe.
Thanks! The workbook won't download anymore. Helpful insights !
This was truly excellent. I haven’t mind-mapped in awhile but do find it it useful. I hadn’t heard of the 80/20 rule in relation to the way you described it, but it makes a lot of sense. The inversion method sounds intriguing, & I think I want to try that one next. Thanks for sharing a great vid!
I’m sorry for past me that I didn’t have this information, but I’m excited for future me that I do now. Thank you!

Thank you for your generosity!!! 💚
Did you get a new camera? The quality looks amazing 👌
Amé H. I also like how the video is not dull. I’m not sure if it’s a filter but it has a pinkish tint to it. 🙌

How I want to feel... Heck yes! I love to question myself that. That is honestly something I need to ask that more often since I try to do too many things each day.
I loved this video! Never really got the whole reverse engineering method of setting goals until now. 😁
Does anyone recommend a channel that has videos like muchelleb because I just got very interested in these types of videos ❤️🥰😊
@Ohmyannie is great
Özge Dilara Uçar thanks I’ll check it out
Love this so much. Going to try this today.
Thank you for sharing these helpful techniques xx
