    No joke, I LOOOVE singing pieces of random shit out loud while I work (it just happens without thinking). It soothes me and helps me focus. The open office concept was hell for me because I wouldn't get much work done until everyone left and I could just be me. I spent a lot of energy just concentrating on not making noises during regular work hours. Now i know I can never be fulltime in an office. I'm way more productive from home.

      Yeah stimming is incredibly important for neurotypical people, and communal spaces aren't really made for us.

    I've been doing more and more things alone and it's so freeing to do things without planning with a group of other people and their needs

      Omg yes. It's impressive how the usual "I'm a person who has trouble deciding" sort of disappears when you're the only one you're making decisions for.

      That's awesome to hear actually. I know it's hard for me sometimes to recognize that I've come a long way and things are ok. So "doing good" is goals quite frankly 🫶🏻

    Doing things alone is amazing!! I especially love solo travelling, being able to explore a new place at my own pace is the best :) I guess I'm at the other end of the spectrum where I'm so comfortable doing things alone that I need to remind myself that I also need to socialise now and then...😅

      Hahaha yeah I getchu! I'm kinda the same to an extent. I get too comfortable in my own silence and my own space and I need to force myself to see other human beings.
      Takes me a while to recharge and do it again though.

    The difficult thing I feel about doing things alone is that I'm a bit of a lazy person. And if there is no one to hold me accountable, I sometimes just don't do a whole lot. I have learned that I need to plan things a bit more. For example, I recently went on a holiday for the first time, but didn't plan anything. After a couple days I didn't know what to do anymore and I just returned home to my comfortable habits. But that's not really what I wanted. Next time I will set a more proper goal (like hike from here to there during x days). I think that will help me. Fun video though, makes you think!

      This is good, all of this is really good. Part of living alone is finding those strategies and triggers to motivate yourself. So like if no one is keeping you accountable for - i dunno - cleaning your place, then you could find a way to make it important FOR YOU so you can clean it up for YOU.
      When I got divorced I went to Bilbao as sort of a "rediscovering myself" trip. The only thing I planned was a long hike to a small hermitage in the middle of the sea. But I found myself not knowing what to do or who to talk to for the next few days, so I get where you're coming from.
      But you know what? That's great, cause that's taught you that next time you can plan just 1% better and you'll be much more fulfilled.
      Cheers!

    This was so interesting and it's exactly what I needed, been living on my own with my dog too for a month and it's so weird, still trying to figure me out cause it's so hard for me to motivate myself or force myself to do stuff even if it's fun so it's definitely a difficult process but you're so right, I'm feeling better thanks for this, love your vids and your attitude you're so cool

      This was really nice to read man. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment.
      It's hard to live by yourself at first, but if you reframe WHY you do things and WHY you enjoy things and remember that it's mostly to entertain and advance YOU, then it gets easier.
      Much love to the doggy.
