Poor Cam looks dead tired but at least you gave it all you had. I try and cut back on small rewards consistently that has helped me. Also, I try and remember what my mom and grandpa told me growing up. “You don’t need a reward for every little thing. Sometimes having the job done is the reward.”
Having watched a couple of your videos it feels like there is a common structure to the challenges: Initial motivation, setback, rethinking, pushing through with renewed energy, goal reached (or almost reached). Not sure if thats on purpose (since it makes a good story) or just inherent to these challenges. But it might be interesting to approach new challenges with this meta pattern in mind to make them more efficient.
So true! I've also noticed a tendency to be goal-oriented, rather than process-oriented. This also might be due to narrative and content creation, but I wonder what a challenge would look like where the "goal" was to let go of quantitative markers of success and instead learn to pull out parts of the experience that you enjoy. For instance, some people love the feeling of exercise or find joy in learning -- irrespective of PRs or degrees. It would be harder to track "progress", but you could explore the question: "progress to what end?". Put another way, you could investigate the desire to become more/less x, y, or z, as well as track changes in the experience of goal-less effort. Hope that makes sense... Side note, thank you for making such great videos :)
@@lissyc384 Interesting, I think I will apply these ideas to my own routines. Next video is going full meta like "our goal is to optimize the process in which we tackle goals", following itself a pattern while changing the pattern 🤔
I assume it’s both. Since the structure is basic story structure The setback is more played up, but anyone trying to reach a goal in such little time will encounter a setback.
To be honest now that you mentioned, all of their videos that I watched have that same structure. I am trying to think about one that does not fall in that pit but can not remember of any.
I love this so much! Hard things are...freaking hard! I feel like I can be resilient is small snips of time, but otherwise, forget it-I want to scroll my phone, lay on the couch and just eat stuff. This helps me to know that I CAN change it, I CAN become more focused. Thank you for your content!
hmm....I am the ultimate lazy person, nothing motivates me apart from movement. I have completed Ultramarathons, if i have a fitness goal i smash it no matter how hard or long it takes me (eg X amount of pull ups, handstands, learning to backflip)...just anything movement related. Running hard and fast on a treadmill sounds like a dream to me not torture... BUT i hate doing any hard things that dont involve movement, ie. studying for an exam, sleeping more, excelling to get a promotion in my career (i work in tech), eating less ( i have never been able to diet, and still couldnt even if you told me eating the way i did could kill me), making YT videos for my own channel sometimes!, even if its going to help future me, nothing will motivate me. I have succeeded in other areas of my life, but through pure serendipity/luck. For example, ill read a book out of curiosity for its content, but as soon as im told i have to read it to smash X goal, i will do it but hate doing that thing that i now deem as hard.
Really appreciate your insights and science based approach to self improvement. I've always enjoyed your videos and this one dropped at a time where i really could use a motivational shakedown. I'll be giving this a go for sure. Thanks!
A big mistake people make is making their workouts too damn exhausting. If it kills you one day, then all you're dreading is doing it the next day. Do as much as you can without it causing you too much stress. After a few weeks or months, it becomes a habit that you want to repeat even on your days off, this is when you can push your limits
I really really appreciate all your work you put into your videos! And you show all the downsides, the struggle and the failure. And how to deal with it. Thats the most important part. Way more valuable than all the other shiny glitter (fake) everything-is-good and works straight away postings in social media. Keep up the great work! 🙇🏻♂🙏🏻
Angela shares a study done by Harvard University starting back in 1940 when 130 sophomores took the Treadmill Test, a challenge to run on a treadmill for up to five minutes when it was set to a steep angle and fast speed. Some quit a minute and a half in, while the average lasted for four minutes. Decades later, they followed up with these participants to see where they ended up in their careers, social activities, satisfaction with work and marriage, and things like use of mood-altering drugs. Here’s what they found: “It turns out that run time in the Treadmill Test at age twenty was a surprisingly reliable predictor of psychological adjustment throughout adulthood.” Imo, researcher is missing forest for the trees. Fit people are generally more attractive, and attractive people are more successful based on multiple researches, not just 80 year old "treadmill test". And fit people would do better on this "test" obviously.
@@AAAB183 I mean yes, fit people would do better on this test And yes, generally we judge fit people as more attractive But also fit people have other good qualities that they either develop through their workout regime or that make maintaining that workout routine easier. Stuff like commitment, ability to push oneself through discomfort, etc that also translate well to lots of parts of life. It's a generalisation and you can have or gain these qualities in other ways but basically if you're willing to put the effort into working out, you're probably willing to put the effort into at least some other aspects of your life.
A study that predicts your future success by measuring how long you can run….or it can also assess your cardio fitness. That’s the type of study that you would expect in Cosmo magazine, along with “studies” regarding astrology.
The reason hard work feels good is because of the actual labor of it. The movement produces NT that are the rewards. It's very hard to find the healthy reward while being productive and entertaining the mind. It's why listening to music while working helps a lot and also even why some people can listen to audio books or podcasts while working, even in data roles. I've been working on my neuroplasticity since I was 15, now 31. ^.^ study study study
I noticed that the storytelling on all videos starts to be a bit monotonous: the sad music at exactly 50%, the almost-failure followed by a motivational thought, then upbeat music and almost doing it in the end. Maybe a different edit would be good from time to time.
All of these videos (and I haven't even seen any other "Goal Guys" videos) ARE all the same, and they're created to do one thing: Keep you watching and consuming. They could have the kindest, most, altruistic intentions, but in the end, they're there to provide, us, the viewers with that little dopamine hit. It's sort of like what happens when you watch a short or tiktok video, and then you just have to hit the next one. It's Pavlov's dog. Even though the short videos (like tiktok vids) gets all the attention for doing this, these "self help" or "Look what I did in X days or hours" Do the exact same thing. They make money because we can't stop watching 🙂 (I don't even fault anyone since they're on here to make money, and yes I do understand some people are on here or started not for money, but almost everything on here is generated to get views).
Watched some Videos of you and wondered if you could have ADHD? You are trying so hard and it seems to be not enough, maybe you are paralyzed sometimes in front of the work. You are good with deadlines and gamification, right? You are creative and all that stuff. Maybe I am wrong, then sorry for the unasked diagnose - just had the same struggle over years and am very happy to know, that it's not only "me". Neurodivergent brains don't fit into the most habit systems - so who ever is reading this and is thinking: why the hell is everybody knowing how to work, do their daily tasks and get their shit together and I am not? Maybe these tricks don't help you, because your brain is not the same. If you have the suspicion - go and talk to an ADHD specialist! 🙏🏻
Hey matey, have you ever considered that you may have ADHD? It affects your ability to perform tasks which don’t have a reward in the immediate or short term. It also affects your focus, attention span, etc.
Totally sounds like nd to me. My strategy is to have good days & enough recovery. Constant perfection willl end in a spiral down. Homeostasis is easier.
This is my third video of his and every time he talks about how he does in school and how he's having a hard time with consistency, I ask myself if he has ADHD. I got diagnosed last year at 51, and everything made sense afterward. I relate so much to this guy. I wish he would get evaluated.
can someone explain how the method works? I assume it is 1. Exercise and reduce phone time 2. Stay positive and consistent with your goals 3. Visualize success and stay mindful of your breathing during challenging tasks 4. Embrace challenges to break old habits and improve your focus I 1. Exercise and reduce phone time: Make it a daily habit to exercise, even if it's just a 10-minute walk. Also, reduce your phone usage by setting specific times to check it and taking breaks from technology throughout the day. 2. Stay positive and consistent with your goals: Use techniques like self-hypnosis to control negative thoughts and stay positive. Set achievable goals and create a plan to reach them. Stay consistent with your goals by tracking your progress and keeping yourself accountable. 3. Visualize success and stay mindful of your breathing during challenging tasks: Before starting a challenging task, visualize yourself succeeding. Taking a few deep breaths can also help calm your mind and reduce distractions. 4. Embrace challenges to break old habits and improve your focus: Instead of avoiding difficult tasks, challenge yourself to try new things and develop new skills. This can help rewire your brain and improve your ability to focus. Sometimes it feels I need more than that.
Really great video buddy. I'm a believer in the capability of doing hard things even though it can be, well, hard... One of these days I want to try that experiment again & commit to going for the full 5 minutes.
I couldn't help but notice when you wrote down your daily routine you stopped doing Huberman's routine. Can you make a follow up video showing what you stuck with and what you couldn't keep up?
Hi! It is most likely you will still benefit from Reveri, even if you don’t test into the Hypnotic Profile you prefer. Our app combines two things: a positive way of approaching the problem - paying attention to what you are for rather than what you are against - with the intensity of focus that comes with hypnosis. These two work together very well, but it means that even if you don’t automatically experience the benefits you seek with hypnosis, you can benefit from approaching an old problem in a new way. With hypnosis you can intensify your concentration, disconnect from habitual ways of approaching the problem, and enhance your cognitive flexibility - openness to new points of view. @@879PC
This is not how you break from the cicle, you need to start small and slowly integrate new habbits in your life. Small habbits mean significantly more that temporary hard effort
Super intense workout with mouth-breathing is not the best approach to get in shape, it's destined to fail. It burns out the body, I learned this the hard way too.😅 You really should work on your breathing technique too. Doing consistent hard workout is not just about willpower, it has to do with methabolic health, hormonal balance, healthy breathing. If you put all this together, than it will go easier.
I help people rewire their brain through neurofeedback in the Cayman Islands. I'd be happy to complete a qEEG brain map for you anytime. I can help you choose neurotech at home to use to train your brain.
You talk about all the work you’re trying to get yourself to do, but what is the point of the work??? Why do it in the first place? I feel like every self improvement video is of a person trying to program them self into becoming a computer worker drone.
Exactly this. It's all these unattainable X goals by Y time. Like setting a new personal record every single workout. Nah my man, for consistency you need to take a good look how you set short term goals. But realistic goals probably makes for less interesting viewing
Gry, it really sounds like you have adhd. I would consider getting a diagnosis, it could really help you with that feeling of guilt and feeling of inadequacy at those times when it gets hard to build routines
You should be able to rewire your brain. It takes a few weeks but you need enough time to get started on neurogenesis to replace the stuff you don't use in the meantime.
I think what screwed you during that test was the guy that said "30 seconds left. That's nothing". When you're in pain and super tired, you don't wanna hear someone tell you that it's nothing or have connotations that what you're doing is easy. When I train I never want to hear exactly how long I have left or even someone shouting instructions. Its a lot easier to stay focused and just literally keep going until it ends when you're just in you're own head and pushing forward.. Great video btw. Enjoyed it 💪
Interesting, I'm literally wired the opposite way. I NEED someone to yell "30 seconds left. That's nothing". Although I don't interpret it as someone saying it is easy, I see it as someone trying to help you trick your brain into pushing even further. Without a goal of some sort I'll just quit whenever.
Well I really like this channel, I'll say you kind of just throw s*** out there and see if it works. Just follow some sports fitness, like Renaissance periodization. And I think two zone two cardio sessions of 40 minutes maybe twice a week. That's what people do that get their cardio through the roof. So if you can somehow run two times a day for 40 minutes both times twice a week. Something like that's what Marathon runners and people like that do iron Man athletes
the tread mill test is bs. i wont run for months and one day feel like running and ill literally run for 6 hours while watching movies. but here i am watching this video
What does a 5 minute treadmill run have to do with getting to love doing hard things? It doesn't make any sense at all and resilience during physical tasks is not the same as during mentally and congnitively demanding tasks. Probably the worst video you guys made
A lot of these videos you say they’ve absolutely change you yet the next video is how they really didn’t. I get life is always changing but this just seems really repetitive. It’s seems like they’re treated like all or nothing when it doesn’t have to be.
Wait, you want to top your HEART RATE every exercise session? You know your heart has a limit and the measure of success is LOWER heart rate with the same exercise? That was a big blunder. What you were trying to achieve was psychological - such change is most feasible without resistance. Relaxing your mind while your body sustains strain was the goal, not straining your body beyond its limits. Meditation should have been at the very top of your practice in this experiment.
Poor Cam looks dead tired but at least you gave it all you had. I try and cut back on small rewards consistently that has helped me. Also, I try and remember what my mom and grandpa told me growing up. “You don’t need a reward for every little thing. Sometimes having the job done is the reward.”
Sounds like something my boss would say but we ain't working for free around here.
Should have done the treadmill test at the start of the 30 days and compared against yourself.
True
Yup. It actually became more of a fitness test.
He didn't train running he trained jump roping

What does a 5 minute treadmill run have to do with getting to love doing hard things? It doesn't make any sense at all and resilience during physical tasks is not the same as during mentally and congnitively demanding tasks. Probably the worst video you guys made
You also looks like one of a jump rope dude guy 😂
First
neurotypicals get hyperfocus once in a lifetime and think the effect is forever
Still think you should do 30 days with taping your mouth for better sleep!

This just felt like a long ad tbh. For the first time it didn't feel honest.
Dude my god get a new screen protector
This is a good way to die early
A lot of these videos you say they’ve absolutely change you yet the next video is how they really didn’t. I get life is always changing but this just seems really repetitive. It’s seems like they’re treated like all or nothing when it doesn’t have to be.
Really bruh hypnosis😂
It's good enough for Lebron, Tiger Woods, the US Olympic Swim Team, so, yeah...
Wow, if only there were some science of scheduling rewards or scheduling workouts, you could have cut out like two weeks of your journey.
not inspired, go work in a sand mine for a month, to get a grip on reality
ADHD????
Wait, you want to top your HEART RATE every exercise session? You know your heart has a limit and the measure of success is LOWER heart rate with the same exercise? That was a big blunder. What you were trying to achieve was psychological - such change is most feasible without resistance. Relaxing your mind while your body sustains strain was the goal, not straining your body beyond its limits.
Meditation should have been at the very top of your practice in this experiment.
