In terms of priority and reflecting on the “worst case scenario” - I actually find it more helpful to think about the “realistic scenario”. Like, what is most likely going to happen if I don’t get this done? It prevents me from catastrophizing which is usually my default mode lol
Likewise thinking about the best case scenario helps me get motivated
Dude that is gold advice. Catastrophizing can be really intense sometimes and definitely isn't the healthiest thing since it's a pretty extreme form of negative reinforcement.
@@hellomayuko Mmmm whoa I had never thought about it in terms of positive / negative reinforcers. That's a great tie in. Yeah and I'm not disagreeing with what you said in the video btw - I just find the slight vocabulary change helpful haha
Some thoughts of mine as I'm getting old (at age 57) to get the things done: 1) Stop doing low-priotiry things or put them in queue (to forget), 2) As you're getting old you can get less things done with the same amount of time, and 3) OTOH, you still actually can get things done when you stay enough focused onto the things. Appendix: 4) don't waste your time on things you really don't feel like to do.
I love your content Mayuko. Its heart warming to talk about these issues
I find prioritizing rest helps. I've been on the edge of an autistic burnout for years. I know I can't afford that again because it happened before. Faith and rest are doing me a lot of good these days. And nurturing my close relationships.
best part of this video is Mayuko trying to say bubbles in an angry way.
Loved this deeper look at your thought process! It is easy to get overwhelmed with how many tasks we have to do and the expectations we set for ourselves. I think constantly adjusting and forgiving yourself helps.
The way you convey your learnings about self-care and escape from burn-out has really helped me fix a little bit my own overly strict and self-boicoting inner voice.
Since several chronic health issues have kicked in, it’s difficult to learn to be an adult and stop thinking I’m a failure as my standards expected me to turn into an inhuman level of superhuman. So that means lowering my expectations to a human level and then reminding me my human type has some special needs to take into account.
I see a lot of myself in you, so the way you tell yourself you are trying your best and that you shouldn’t do things the unhealthy way really resonates with me and I think it’s been easier to notice my innervoice turning self-destructing easier.
Thanks for sharing your journey
The majority of being an adult is struggling to figure out how to be an adult 😭😭
Can’t agree more 🤝
You literally pump up the stuff I’d like to see the most right when I want them! Love u
Great tips Mayuko. I just finished talking about how to stay organized as a graduate student. I also love writing ideas, or thoughts in a notebook so I can refer back to them later.
I'm from Brazil, and I really wanna say that your content is chill and inspiring. That are a lot of things in my mind right now and I'm very stressed about it. Your videos really help me to put my head in the right place. Thanks a lot.
I really like that double + 1 tip... really going to start trying to plan my to dos that way
I love how aligned our thoughts are!
Prioritizing has been a super helpful too for me too. Time blocking is another one I use all the time. I sit on Sunday with my google cal and block out time for studying, side projects, assignments, etc. It gives me a good birds eye view of what my week will look like. But it also lets me see if I am spending too much time in one are or not too much in another (like self-care! I need to get better at putting a bit more time towards that).
girl your productivity balanced with self care is always so inspiring to me!!!

@@hellomayuko omg to hear that you even see that through the content I put out is 🥺🤩 And on a side note, Bubbles is EXACTLY the kind of thing I needed when we were doing the hello mayuko rebrand! I'll def be trying it for more of my design work
These are genuinely the best and most practical tips I’ve even heard. This is mind blowing. Thank you Mayuko!
I love this content so much. Mayuko provides such useful information that I actually use, I just appreciate it.
I loved this video! It's nice to be reminded that other people go through similar scenarios! I can't wait to show this to my Gf, I think she'll really appreciate your thoughts.
Your content is so relatable! :)
Geez you’re right! I can be hard on myself and sometimes we just need to forgive ourselves 😇
@Mayuko, this really helped me. Thanks a lot 🙏
This was super helpful! I mean your videos are always helpful but this one stands out even more cause I feel like it's got a lot of actionable ways to get things done ^_^
This was so good. I took a ton of notes.
Thank you for introducing us to Bubbles! :D
enjoy each your videos, thank you!
The last tip hit home. Thanks!
This problem is with myself i will use. Your idea of writing down your thoughts in any page or dairy 👍
This was really helpful! I am very often very hard on myself for not keeping up with an ideal I have of myself. Took notes, working on this already.
Great content again ! For me this is the hardest part of being a software engineer, even after many years. It also affects my day to day life: not being able to estimate/plan/get things done is a tremendous source of stress. Thanks for the great tips !
Right now, I'm in my senior year of college and I'm juggling an internship, part time job, school clubs, recruiting, and course work. It's a lot but I'm not alone, I know plenty of my peers who are balancing loads of things. I genuinely think being an adult and just having one job to think about is less stressful than being a student applying for a job.
So good!
I love your Contents Mayuko. I learning from the contents keep making it happen
Thanks Mayuko, really helped me ease for the preparation of my Semester Exams.
"Asyncronously"
I also often mistake to use that word as a programmer in real word conversations 😂
Thanks so much for the funny and insightful video. also OMG that tune at 0:15 and 0:29 giving first tune Teams call PTSD
You are the best Mayuko 👏
Thank you Mayuko
[on tip #2]
think before you put it on your to-do list. is it really that important to read that article you saved? do you have enough time today to finish homework and personal enjoyment? it helped me embrace the truth of I can't do all I want.
Love it! Planning makes a huge difference. Just need to make sure I have time to do planning lol My recent motto is to have “余白” in life. Perfectionism is luxury after getting things done ..!
super helpful!
You’re so awesome!
Adulting is definitely overwhelming. I'm trying to balance creating youtube content while working as a software engineer while getting groceries and cooking. I can barely keep up sometimes.
Thanks Mayuko, your life hacks are great, and you're awesome! Love your channel!
Thank you! Also welcome to the members club ☺️
@mayuko Thank you Mayuko for your reply, I look forward to learning more from all your sharing!
Wahh I can relate !
Feeling very seen rn ❤️❤️
Journaling will change your lives, you guys.
2:38 I am opening a waterproof notebook business for you Mayuko 😂
Thanks!
Thank you Chii!
I feel lucky to be a software dev in a department that follows #NoEstimates. Writing software and making estimates doesn’t make sense 😅
Great video btw!
Every time you post a video it's like you've read my current mental state 😂
I came, I watched, I subscribed!
Hi Mayuko,
What works for me is to think of a reward I'll give myself after completing the task ( it helps me get started) and I use the pomodoro technique to avoid burn outs, along side asking myself how best can I make this task fun for me ?
My notes app is filled with notes of stuff thats been on my mind and then some grocery lists 😅
8:29 That part!
Just to hear somebody of your caliber say out loud that the accuracy of time estimates is super fleeting is such. A dang. RELIEF!! I feel like I'm not alone in that struggle anymore!
I hate to say that because it sounds very misery-loves-company-ish but it's true 😅
Oh my god! That's hilarious, I have call grandma on my to-do list as well!
I am in college rn so managing time is very important for me, I try my best to do all the stuff feom my college but also preparing myself for future, but sometimes it just gets overwhelming. Perhaps your tips can help me.
2:48 Thanks for Clarifying that.
Thanks, M. The world would be a very different and nicer place if we could all just share more and more about how hard things can be and think more in terms of systems or procedures to face the real enemy we all have within ourselves.
8:54 Hofstadter's law
Asynchronous work reminds of async/await swift feature 😅
"Its an art, not a science!" Best comment, Mayuko! :P
The drywall one hits too close to home. Haha.
ohh I love your hair..
06:32 meow 😁 🐈😺
My cat is named Bubbles 🤣🥰
The bubble link is not working :(
Good to know that I'm not the only one who has the best ideas in the shower... :)
Folding laundry is actually counted in hours, so 0.25 hours * 2 + 1 = 1h30 minutes :p
Hi miyako
i have so many things on my to-do list, but i ended up watching youtube videos
This moment when I know every single of these tips and yet I can't make proper use of them
BUBBLESSSSS 😡
oh i can definitely say "bubbles" in an angry way xD
😍😍😍
Hey are you planning to redo/ restock on merchandise (the black hoodie)? I love your content and really want to represent/ support my UCSD alumni!
Aww thank you! Stay tuned for some merch updates soon 👀
1:26-1:29 XD
Just in time! Whiteboarding and creating simple vlogs even if I don't upload.
Great video Mayuko! If you think "Adulting" is hard now in terms of prioritizing things, wait till you add kids into the mix! =)
On tip #2, so you're saying your brain's ML model is getting faster/better at processing the input and assigning weights to them... Mayuko is an AI confirmed.

If only I had a dishwasher :/ Doing it manually takes me like an hour every other day.
Why didn't you take that coin?

@@hellomayuko lool 🤣
"We just have to honer that we are trying our best.. and then just make incrememtal progress from there... becuause if we don't help ourselfs, how are suppose to help others and do the things that we want to"
(mayuko, 2022)
.
estimates are lies XD
If you have to much to do you are not thinking logical.
Copious amounts of caffeine
I'm ready to pay you money Mayuko just not to hear you say "Y'all", so ghetto, but thank you for the great vids
Thanks!
Thank you Steven!!
