Currently reading your book Deep Work and I seriously wanted a good video on how to stay deciplined and consistent because I work really hard but I struggle with decipline and consistency.
This is amazing. There's a lot of motivational videos and books out there that talk about the importance of discipline, but not many are really laying out *how* to do it, or perhaps more importantly, the mechanism by which discipline develops in your life. A lot of the advice boils down to, you just do it. You just find the motivation, and you do it, or else you'll stay a lazy failure forever. This channel and perhaps just a few others (HealthyGamer and Huberman Lab come to mind) are the only ones to really explain discipline as a process, as well as explain and understand why we become undisciplined and reactive in the first place.
Cal, you nailed with Extreme Studying. It's totally unsustainable, that "productivity" over the long period of time could harm young/adult people and bring them to unhealthy obsessive discipline (10 hours of studying/working). Critical question: "What's next?"

Hello Cal. With respect to your statement - 'working on a small number of things over a long period of time' - does this apply to reading books as well, e.g. taking 5/10 pages or maybe chapters per day. Does the statement apply ?

Here u say u don't have to work for 10 hours saying slow productivity is best. But as a alvel student we must keeep on track with weekly class exams assignments and clases everyday its hard to gain slef study time inorder to get it must sacrifice extra time and as u say to not to overload work but as a alvel student we can't minimize the work as it's compulsory for us
Just to take Jocko as an example of…. a flawed example. Jocko was born with abnormally high drive. For example, he states that during boot camp, it *never once, not for one second* occurred to him to give up. The army was also something he always wanted to do.
yeah, the problem with these anecdotes is that we don't know how much of it had to do with the person's particular traits rather than some system they implemented. i guess it's worth giving the system a shot because the risk/reward is great, but yeah the evidence isn't particularly strong
@@pinkifloyd7867each prayer is made up of units of a flow of movement. The minimum amount of units in a prayer is 2. The maximum amount of units in a prayer is 4. In each unit of prayer you are to recite from the Qur’an. You can recite long verses or short verses and this would ultimately dictate how long it takes you to complete each unit of prayer / each total offering of prayer. The standard way to go about it by most laymen Muslims is to recite the shortest chapters of the Qur’an which are comprised of between 3-8 verses for each unit of prayer. As such, I would say the average amount of time it takes to pray 4 units is about 13 minutes.
@@pinkifloyd7867 dawn prayer is 2 obligatory units. 7 mins or so if we go by the short chapters to recite. Ps. If you want to see the short chapters they are predominantly found towards the end of the Qur’an, with the longer ones being more at the beginning. Anyhoo, after dawn prayer is the noon prayer which is 4 units. 13 mins. Mid afternoon prayer another 4 units and 13 mins. Then the prayer at sunset is 3 units. So like 10 mins. Then the night prayer is 4 units. So an average muslim may spend about 56 minutes daily performing their obligatory units of prayer. Some may perform the prayers much quicker, but this is more disliked as people shouldn’t be heedless in their prayer and instead really zone in on it for the meditate experience it is as well as body conditioning and of course above all else, a very special appointment with God that should be given it’s due focus and respect. On top of the obligatory units there are some recommended units of prayer that one can perform during those aforementioned time phases in following with the instances of prayer opportunities that the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to perform. The ones that he would never miss, and thus to follow in his footsteps would be a good idea if Muslims never missed them too - amounted to a minimum of an addition 15 units of prayer daily. So if a Muslim prayed these units that are obligatory and also the ones which the prophet pbuh never missed, and when doing so only recited the shortest quranic chapters, but not being too hasty with the movements - then ur looking at a very fulfilling almost 2 hours of praying per day.

If you want to see the short chapters they are predominantly found towards the end of the Qur’an, with the longer ones being more at the beginning. Anyhoo, after dawn prayer is the noon prayer which is 4 units. 13 mins. Mid afternoon prayer another 4 units and 13 mins. Then the prayer at sunset is 3 units. So like 10 mins. Then the night prayer is 4 units. So an average muslim may spend about 56 minutes daily performing their obligatory units of prayer. Some may perform the prayers much quicker, but this is more disliked as people shouldn’t be heedless in their prayer and instead really zone in on it for the meditate experience it is as well as body conditioning and of course above all else, a very special appointment with God that should be given it’s due focus and respect. On top of the obligatory units there are some recommended units of prayer that one can perform during those aforementioned time phases in following with the instances of prayer opportunities that the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to perform. The ones that he would never miss, and thus to follow in his footsteps would be a good idea if Muslims never missed them too - amounted to a minimum of an addition 15 units of prayer daily. So if a Muslim prayed these units that are obligatory and also the ones which the prophet pbuh never missed, and when doing so only recited the shortest quranic chapters, but not being too hasty with the movements - then ur looking at a very fulfilling almost 2 hours of praying per day.
Praying to God through Jesus.
The only way!
