Summary guy: 1) make your everyday the same: you should be doing the same shit everyday. Make a schedule and stick to it 2) enter robot mode: do not ask questions and just do what your schedule says 3) get to 80% and then stop 4) do the highlight of the day everyday and always finish it: have that 1 extremely important thing to do today and then do it. It might not take your entire day so you can do other work but always complete the highlight
These tips are amazing, the robot mode especially. I entered robot mode for 2 months preparing for a fight of mine and i made the most progress I’ve ever made during training. Same with any self help habits I introduce into my life, I find that when I just follow these rules I set out for myself the progress just appears out of nowhere. I was recently looking back on some old Snapchat memories of myself 5 months ago and I can barely recognize that person. I feel like I’ve been in a flow state for the past little bit but still finding time to appreciate the little things. I’ve honestly never been more happy and If I’ve learned anything it’s that the routine you create for yourself truly is one of the most fulfilling things you can do
This is creepily similar to the concept I have been employing during universities most difficult weeks. Make a list, execute, and don't make excuses. I have told at least 3 people that principle in the last week. It builds mental toughness, actually gets things done, and you can evaluate the best path forward when you have the time to think. Up until then, you know what you need to do, you just probably don't want to do it.
Man that 80% rule really got me. I often find it hard to stop and move on to other things when I'm really involved in some project. It's kind of a obsession with perfection that really screws my schedule and mental peace . I'll definitely try to remember this the next time.
Starting from today, the next 100 days will be the exact same. I will check back in after this period to see how I’m going. My day will include: * waking up early morning * gymming everyday, resting Sun * journalling every night * minoxidil 2x a day * skincare 2x a day * working on income streams every single day!! Keep me accountable YT!
Hey brother I'm trying to my thing on my channel. Tones of inspiration from C.S.. here starting from 0. being vulnerable ect... Happy Holidays All the love to all
Robot mode is real, I've never been able to keep a schedule for longer than a few days because my emotions want to change things, now it's time to do Captain Sinbad 100 day challenge and I'm going to make a video for it too, let's see how productive I become
Get it brotha, hope you reach your goals and complete it. Just wanted to say something real quick, don’t over do it with “Robot mode”. You might achieve your short term goals but take breaks because mental burn out is real and one can burn out and end up wasting just as much time after the goal and challenge is completed. Hope it works out well! Good luck
During my school days I was happier than usual but i never realised the happiness was because of having a disciplined life and following the same routine everyday. Waking up at 5:00 going to the stadium playing football then after school then tuition and after that Little bit self study and repeat. But during COVID when I was free to do anything I didn't achieve anything because I had no schedule and after realising free spirited life is not for me I need the same disciplined life as I had before though now I'm better at least i study everyday but i have to maintain my physical health(I was doing sprints twice a week and used to play football but i got injured and for a month i didn't exercise) and sleeping schedule.
at 4:46 that transition where your hand starts from the same place as the reference video was amazing ,I don't know if it was intentional but looked cool. Keep up the good work.
100% agree! I’m on day #4 of the 100 day creator challenge that I host (and of course do myself as well). We have 30 other folks joining in the challenge so far, lots of fun!
The 80% part resonated with me. I feel like that sort of distribution works with school grades, too. It usually takes exponentially more work to make an A over a B, for example.
Hey, that's Anthony Vicino @7:15 Principle 3: Good enough is a great stopping point. Learn to stop or quit at 80% or 90%, because oftentimes the difference between 80-90% and 100% is negligible. This will prevent you from becoming a perfectionist and keep your mind in an action-taking bias and the time and energy costs of going from good to perfect are oftentimes disproportionately and exponentially more .... See, I quit at 90%.
Just before this video came out. I was reviewing what needs to be eliminated and what needs to be kept from my daily habits. Cause am always stuck in the mental mess that ‘Ohh i missed that I missed this’ Thanks for another great video.
I really like the idea of "entering robot mode." I know many times I will try to find excuses or distractions in order to not finish what I need to do, especially at work. I just have to set that time and focus on completing my tasks. 👍
Hey cap, this is coming from a 27 year old nobody from india....you're doing great work. Dont let the existential dread fool you. Im a recovering addict and think you are able to provide very clear insights on what works and doesn't because of your extensive work. Keep it up, know where you want to go. Cheers.
ROUTINE BUILDS MOMENTUM that cuts through the obstacles that life throws at you. You seem to have leveled up to Nikhil 2.0, can't wait to see future upgrades...
Jordan Peterson actually saya to not be a tyrant to your own schedule. The old self lashings from cracking the whip on yourself is only effectice short term
Great video Nikhil! I've been working out first thing in the morning for about six months, but often I was just very exhausted afterwards and couldn't focus on the mental tasks ahead of me. I'm now trying to flip it around and work out in the middle of the day and feel like it's working much better for me. I still get some fresh air shortly after getting up (it's still dark out at that time though), usually just by walking to the office.
Loved this! I prefer these classic Cap'n Sinbad videos over the Manosphere theme videos. Not that the latter ain't important, but I believe these type of videos are far more valuable on your channel.
I sometimes tell myself "you're not human you are a machine" and just do what I have to do regardless of my mood. Sounds just like your robot mode concept. Good stuff as always!
I love what you said abt the 90%, especially when talking abt youtube filmmaking and editing. Sometomes its tough to just drop the task when you know it should be better, but the storyline will not be improved more than 5% by spending a few hours on the extra 10%. The storyline is going to be what carries viewers to watch thru the video, so if you already hit that 90%, the story is 99% formed already. Good vid man. Ill try the highlight of the day thing out
11 months later, this video changed my life! Doubled my income and started a business. Now 11months later I'm in a rut and feeling like my progress is going back, so I remembered this Video and now watching it again.
Love this and came at such a great time! I want to start making YT videos in 2023 and will start implementing some of these tips. Love your message at the end around your purpose. I also want to fulfil and focus on mine. Let's get it kings and queens 👑
You really know your self huh, crazy self aware. And through active, not passive, failure we learn. With that knowledge that we build the plan works due to the path of least resistance customized to our own self. Thus success follows. Damn Great content, awesome lesson.
Great tips man, I'm definitely going to attempt these methods to see if there is an at least an observable, positive, change in my life over the next 100 days. Looking forward to the next video!
I’m a running streak person, I run at least 1 mile a day, and I can certainly attest to 100 days being way better than 30 days for real change to take place. Those first 100 days were fucking brutal. Start small, stay consistent and shit happens.
Damn! This is banger advice that I needed. Watched yesterday. Today is day 1: - Experimented with that crazy routine of working out in the morning and doing deep work in the afternoon: worked! - Got my Highlight done. Boom. Feels good.
Just started watching. LFG. 💥🚀 On Day 15 of no fap, no drinking, no smoking, and running a sh*t ton of miles (35 miles in the last week, and ramping that up). Edit: I hate the word ‘jogging.’ I’m not jogging, I’m running.
"I feel existential dread despite being high-performing." Consider the opposite, you are feeling that because you know deep down that you are following a script as well.
It’s not going to be BEST 100 days of your life but it will be the life of your dreams once you master the self discipline that one needs to live by the 4 principles he talks about for sure ….
bhaiya, all the points that you made are actually very useful and pretty genuine. 1 doing the task upto 80% ,2 doing the highilght of the day , 3 doing the same schedule everyday... I have always felt that whenever i have done something on a 2-3 days streak , then the next day there comes and unavoidable obstacle that just ruins your happiness and confidence that you had already gained, it just kills the momentum, ive tried to add many good habits in my daily routine but i just give up to those universal obstacles. Also i had a question, the part where you mentioned that " follow the same plan for everyday " i want to know whether making planner for everyday on that day is helpful or just making a schedule for the whole 100 days ??
I have been thinking about 80% principle for about a while personally in a different way. I think of it as maximising my throughput for the day. Throughput comes from the principle behind a pipelined processor where you squeeze out more work from a single processor.
Damn this was up!! Damn C.S. I wanna joy you. For the next 100 days I wanna live the best days of my life. Who want to see me do it... give me a tumps up
I appreciate you touching on choosing selfishness in regards to your parents sometimes. It’s a hard concept to grapple with when you have immigrant parents. Not many of these white self help YTers touch on things like that.
Great video... Would have loved if you addressed also how being a robot is just... well, boring as hell. There is almost a feeling of claustrophobia that hit's you when you go into the robot mode. At least that's it for me. And obviously, nobody wants to live like a robot for the rest of their lives.
Recently I was trying to have a productive routine, It's so hard to maintain it while having some random ass bs college classes but it's not impossible
hi nikhil, i really really love this video, its something that im defintely going to implement in my life and i totally relate to on a deep level. just a quick question, where do you learn this stuff? is it from things like books? (and if so could you tell me which one cos i would love to read it!) or is it purely from just life experience? keep up the amazing work, with the things you put out you will defintely hit 1 million subs one day! thanks again!

Couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks cap.
Loved the get to 80% rule, I often get analysis paralysis when trying to improve a video to exactly what I have in my mind. Often it is not neccesary.

I was really feeling down.
Then Sinbad uploaded a video and now I feel like crushing the day.
But you are still just watching yt videos as I am 😂
@@franthor I get shit done between Sinbad uploads!

100% agree! I’m on day #4 of the 100 day creator challenge that I host (and of course do myself as well). We have 30 other folks joining in the challenge so far, lots of fun!

Good luck my dude
Thanks Captain Sinbad! No point waiting until the new year to start improving one self.
If tomorrow, why not today, right?
Absolutely
Out of all the UA-camrs in this genre, I respect you the most. This is awesome, thank you
Just before this video came out. I was reviewing what needs to be eliminated and what needs to be kept from my daily habits. Cause am always stuck in the mental mess that ‘Ohh i missed that I missed this’
Thanks for another great video.
This man needs to upload more
I would always feel guilty for prioritizing working out before studying. This made me feel more at ease about it !! Ty
The Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack is amazing for working. I love it.
I believe the next 100 days of my life is going to be transformational. Thanks for good videos like these simbad ❤
Luckily this video got recommended to me. I will try this out. And I have to say the editing was on point again. Thank you Sinbad

Hey Nikhil, please post more often. Good video as usual.
Tons of value here. Really useful Nikhil. I like the personal touches you included from your life as well
Man great to see you actually back
You really know your self huh, crazy self aware. And through active, not passive, failure we learn. With that knowledge that we build the plan works due to the path of least resistance customized to our own self. Thus success follows. Damn Great content, awesome lesson.
I totally changed my life , thankyou for sharing such a good words
Great video! I also doubted my habits once I heard hormozi's method of working first thing in the morning.
The way he explained the highlight of the day concept was amazing!
Personally, and I hope I speak for many, I like that you're sticking w long form content. Cheers
Brilliant video bro. Content and videos keep getting better 👊
I love the way he captures attention by the way he speaks.
Man this was a really good video
Used to do similar things to these 4 things, love the video as always bro!
Already waiting for "How to reinvent yourself in 2023" 😉 These videos have always been great from you
Thanks for the video. It so high quality.
*EVERY GREAT THINGS TAKES TIME!*
I'm gonna seriously do this man. Let's see how it goes.
The only problem is that there's a lot of unknown instances to do other things.
Great tips man, I'm definitely going to attempt these methods to see if there is an at least an observable, positive, change in my life over the next 100 days. Looking forward to the next video!
Missed content like this one from you, sir. Thank you!!
Excellent. I will be giving this several listens.
As always, what a wonderful presentation my man.
Love this !! 🎉😊
Did anyone notice the intro of this video is kinda like one scene from Moneyball, nice job man
Excellent video, thanks Nikhil!!

Today is day 1:
- Experimented with that crazy routine of working out in the morning and doing deep work in the afternoon: worked!
- Got my Highlight done. Boom. Feels good.
That 4th principle and the obstacles is what Steven Pressfield calls Resistance.
got it at the right time.....❣️

You and hamza are a blessing to us
Coconut breaking ceremony is the best part of the video ❤
Okay, Ill start after I finished the David Goggins book that just came out today.
Very inspired Nikhil... I will watch your all videos!

"I feel existential dread despite being high-performing."
Consider the opposite, you are feeling that because you know deep down that you are following a script as well.
It’s not going to be BEST 100 days of your life but it will be the life of your dreams once you master the self discipline that one needs to live by the 4 principles he talks about for sure ….
I feel this guy's pain and fire 🔥
bhaiya, all the points that you made are actually very useful and pretty genuine. 1 doing the task upto 80% ,2 doing the highilght of the day , 3 doing the same schedule everyday...
I have always felt that whenever i have done something on a 2-3 days streak , then the next day there comes and unavoidable obstacle that just ruins your happiness and confidence that you had already gained, it just kills the momentum, ive tried to add many good habits in my daily routine but i just give up to those universal obstacles.
Also i had a question, the part where you mentioned that " follow the same plan for everyday " i want to know whether making planner for everyday on that day is helpful or just making a schedule for the whole 100 days ??
I have been thinking about 80% principle for about a while personally in a different way. I think of it as maximising my throughput for the day. Throughput comes from the principle behind a pipelined processor where you squeeze out more work from a single processor.
Damn this was up!! Damn C.S. I wanna joy you. For the next 100 days I wanna live the best days of my life. Who want to see me do it... give me a tumps up
Love that, had a similar principal I called zombie mode
I appreciate you touching on choosing selfishness in regards to your parents sometimes. It’s a hard concept to grapple with when you have immigrant parents. Not many of these white self help YTers touch on things like that.
Great video... Would have loved if you addressed also how being a robot is just... well, boring as hell. There is almost a feeling of claustrophobia that hit's you when you go into the robot mode. At least that's it for me. And obviously, nobody wants to live like a robot for the rest of their lives.
There’s something great about your videos
Recently I was trying to have a productive routine, It's so hard to maintain it while having some random ass bs college classes but it's not impossible
Just noted everything on my notebook and I am gonna do this challenge
Thankyou Nikhil 🙂
Highlight concept makes sense. Im gonna try it but now today, tomorrow lol
hi nikhil, i really really love this video, its something that im defintely going to implement in my life and i totally relate to on a deep level. just a quick question, where do you learn this stuff? is it from things like books? (and if so could you tell me which one cos i would love to read it!) or is it purely from just life experience? keep up the amazing work, with the things you put out you will defintely hit 1 million subs one day! thanks again!
