Stop Using Your Willpower - Do This Instead
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 лют 2019
- Our environment is one of the invisible forces that shapes human behavior.
We would like to think that the choices we make are our own and not influenced by external factors.
The truth however, is that many of the actions we take each day are shaped by the most easy and obvious option.
If you're overweight, a smoker or a video game addict, you might think that it's because you lack the willpower to quit.
Research however, shows something different.
When scientists analyze people who appear to have tremendous amounts of willpower, it turns out those individuals are not different than you.
Instead, the evidence says that disciplined people are better at optimizing their environment in a way that does not require massive amounts of willpower.
Good behavior is easy for them, simply because they optimized their surroundings in a way that supports it.
In the short run, you can choose to overpower temptation. However in the long run, you become a product of the environment that you live in.

If Mike can read, meditate and excercise every single day, just let him eat chocolate.
😂🤣 LoL,but bro then what will be the purpose of meditation, exercise n gaining knowledge about whats good n bad if u r doing these things u should avoid bad things otherwise u can't change ur life🙄
the chocolate and sweets are a metaphor for porn addiction
@@Love-zh4sv Eh, it's just calories! Just eat less calories than you can burn. Few people (about 5%) exercises every single day for atleast 30min.
He's getting healthier every day, candy or not. He's way ahead of most already!
@@08131907748 Now I understand what they referred to as "exercise".
I was thinking the same, lol😂😂
I’m concerned about Mike’s posture
this comment is underrated!
Literally the first thing I thought. Maybe he devolves into a cromagnon when hungry.
Hilarious 😂
Thanks dude
legend 😂
the message: Optimize your surrounding in a way that supports your goals
Just saved me 9 minutes of my life 👍
I just recently learned to make Systems not goals. It's pretty cool, way less burnout.
It's easier to lose weight in Japan than in the USA just by looking at what they sell in 7-11 stores.
The phrase “We are not in control of how motivated we will feel tomorrow” hit me like a ton of bricks. Great video.
and I've somewhat missed it so thanks for the quote haha
In other words, if you live with your parents, and your dad loves donuts, there's no hope for you. Gee thanks
Sad, but just closed your eye and dun think bout it
Why dont you put something else in your house or just your room healthier to eat, that way you can avoid them?

Sadly if your fridge, your food place only takes 2 step to reach.
Thank you! Now I've sold my bed, because lying on it was too tempting!
The floor can be tempting sometimes too 😂
I legit sleep on the floor, for that exact reason
Hahahaha 🤣
@meh 2.0 lmao yeah
Dude, the floor is where it's at!
This is why minimalism works, you hide the distractions and make the essential visible
I have a super effective rule to motivate myself to cleaning: keep my surfaces and my floor empty. When you have to lift 100 things from the floor in order to clean, you won't find cleaning so much fun. I have a rug in my livingroom and a mat in the bathroom but otherwise nothing is on the floor. And I don't have trinkets or decorations on my furniture, just a couple of vases and bowls, so dusting doesn't seem so annoying. Since I decluttered, my home is so much cleaner
This is actually so simple and yet I never thought of that. thank you
Wow good to know I think I’ll try that
Oh no I can’t do that my floor is gross :(
It would not be a Waste of Time to tidy up your floor and clean it
Get it: your name is Waste of Time🤣
Please like if I succeeded by making you cringe because of this terrible joke
I try to do the same thing, but some of the things I feel attached to and/or help me feel calm because I move a lot and like to hold on to things from friends and important places. If it doesn’t have any value to me, though, it’s gone!
before going to bed I lay my sport clothes ready next to my bed, so it is easier for me to wake up and work out. I call it 'beating the procrastination the day before' (i think i read it somewhere). I also lay a jacket next to my bed, bc one of the reasons I can't wake up in the morning is bc it's so cold and my bed is so warm and cozy. :) I try to make the work I have to do as comfortable as possible(like waking up or working out) to beat my procrastinating self that will try to find reasons to not do mentioned things. It's very similar to the concept you mentioned herr
Amazing..
@@roopikas2647 yeap I think it is the same concept, but in a different setup.
You're awesome. Never forget that.
great idea. I do it this way, too
i will try that
Summery:
To maintain good habits
Apart from motivation and willpower
One more option is changes in environment
Making availability of good chioces easy and bad choices difficult
Thanks, you just saved me 9 minutes of precious time
Not really just another option more like a requirement
its not one more option, they explains that motivation and willpower don't work unless you are in perfect condition. People who are 'better on managing themselves' didn't have more willpower, they make their environment work for them.
This applies online as well. It's very hard to cut down on time wasted on social media when you see their icons every time you open a new tab. Just remove these: you can always manually type in the address and it will be a more conscious decision when you do so.
Bro, use "NewsFeed Eradicator" plug-in to remove newsfeed on FB and replaced it with motivational quotes.
they talk about this in other vidoe, but yeah... you right
That's one reason I stopped using the bookmarks tabs. Also set my browser start page as blank. I may have to go a step further and get ride of my history.
It's nothing I haven't heard a hundred times before but it is still good to hear it again. It seems I need many reminders to keep up the good habits.
wow, after watching this video I started looking at my environment with a much different perspective. Thanks for the video!
get divorced and throw away children who eat chocolate every day? :DD
@@MaruskaStarshaya WTF MATE...xD xD
Totally agreed!!
Acceptable opinion and based
Bro science: Treat your will power like muscles.
In first you are very weak and have low capacity just like being tired after 5 push ups.
But as time passes his will power increase to resist just like practice in muscle building.
The crux of this is between the options; a) stay home and learn to cook the food on-hand, or b) drive 10 minutes to a fast food restaurant.
My habit was to drive 10 minutes for fast food because it was easier even though the cupboards were stocked with plenty of food.
So what I did was learned to cook small things; boiling noodles, cooking sauces, frying meat on skillet, and cooking vegetables. One lesson a day, one day at a time. Once I learned those things, I can now make the same foods I used to buy at fast food joints without having to pay outrageous prices to franchise owners, nor do I feel my only option is to drive into town and back just to eat a tasty meal.
Tonight, I made a salad, diced some bell peppers over it, grilled some fresh chicken, cut up the pieces, put it in the salad, and topped it off with basel vinegrette and asiago cheese.
The night before, I cooked ground turkey, rice spaghetti noodles, made a pasta sauce with freshly cut tomatoes, and garlic in a tomato paste with diced zucchini. Boiled some broccoli, lightly topped with shredded swiss cheese.
Now I realize what I've been missing in life. Creating my own diet plan at home.
_WAY_ BETTER.
Great video! The only way to not eat junk food at home is to not have any. Environment design is a crucial skill we should learn. Making the default easy option to be the right one can go a long way :)
Yeah... and then you get a spouse who buys all the junk food you don‘t. Jeez.... that bugs me every single day.
Haha if some people weren't aware, healthy eating starts at the store, not the kitchen xD.
i'm not attracted one bit to junk food. maybe a luxurious piece of cake would get me.. but if i see chips or candy i don't feel the urge to eat them.. i know that they are not good for me so i avoid them without problems
perfect instruction how to become lonely, hahahaha
@@frappalina Once you've stopped consuming them for a certain amount of time, your body assumes they aren't available and stops the visceral craving, you're left only with the psychological aspect.
Edit: However, that doesn't apply to the transition period.

I wonder how did you manage to watch this video in 9 minutes. Did you use willpower?

So true and im glad i already implement this. Never have unhealthy food or snacks available at home. Never drink soda. Dont have a tv. Some days i just find it hard to get myself off youtube and to study lol. But i do dopamine detox every morning (one hour no internet, etc) and it helps. On weekdays i wont watch youtube or movies until the evening after all my work is done. But today is sundayyy and im lazyyyy but i need to study for exams.. ugh
Teach me your ways! How do you do it?
Keep a day study-free! Don't study everyday, it's worse in the long term
Same how do you do it?
Simply : Remove temptations
Environment improvement needed I think.
Men, I've been trying to bring back my life and these videos somehow help me get the gears running. Thanks
I find This video unrealistic in that it did not show Mike's wife coming home and yelling and screaming at him for getting rid of all the chocolate in the house.
And that would be called a co-dependent relationship
If that's the problem, then you would also have to keep your wife invisible and replace her with a gym trainer.
It's gonna be easy for you.
I hope this helped you my brother.
LOL.
Its the other way around for me.
I wish I had everything thrown out!
since I have a girlfriend I dont get to workout anymore. I used to go on weekends. Like Saturday and sunday I would work out. Now she always wants to do something on these days. And then we go out and do some kind of activity and it usually ends at an restaurant we can afford, which means fast food.
Gained so much because of her. But she gets mad at me, because she gained weight too.
Accurate 🤣
I put my meals hanging over a bear trap the previous day, that way I kinda have to fight for my food and I don't overeat. This technique is the reason I do it
@Relebohile Thukwana good, you're a cultured person
When I was still in university, I adored candy and sugar as a whole. I've always been fit as I have a very active lifestyle so I wrote it off as not a big deal. I live with my family and my sister is a baker so she loves just making cakes, cookies, sweets and so on on the regular. Over time, my teeth had grown very sensitive to sugar. It's reached the point where I can't bite into a cookie without feeling discomfort for minutes. Dentists tell me my teeth are perfectly healthy and they might have just grown sensitive naturally but I can no longer look at sweets. In my eyes, sugar is just synonymous with pain. I live with a lady that cannot stop putting the most sugar filled options on display but I got lucky that I developed this condition. I don't miss sugar and am grateful for my teeth. I think this is applicable everywhere though. If we create a negative association with something we crave, we can forcefully break temptation, even if it is in plain sight. Just ask all the sushi lovers who can't look at sushi after having one case of food poisoning.
Wow that’s a crazy story! A taste aversion to sugar, I’m a little jealous even though it is a big shame that it happened to you.

5:03 It's easy to resist items that are not in front of you and not on your mind, in your optimized environment.
More difficulty generally leads to "I won't" "I can't" "Too hard" make it hard for bad and easy for good.
Ok time stamp terry :)
Environment is key!
Thank you for your effort!
I watched a few of your videos, and every time there's a point that hit me directly in the face : you have such a beautiful life to be able to optimize your environment, and such other things. Some people just can't change their life that easily, because they are tied to bad things, and those tips, when applied, can't make their life better, if not worse.
I just started keto, 1st 2 days were very hard because I had lot of sugar and carbs in my room, but 3rd day I gave them all away to my friends and it became very easy after that
This channel offers up some great self improvement videos. I just started watching these, and am amazed at the content and sincereness of the advice given. I can tell by the voice that the guy doing these videos truly wants to help.
Dude, I should say that you have a knack to break down complex topics into its quantum nature. Speaking from experience, not just plain flattery. Some day when I am able, I will support you bro. Keep up the good work.😊👍
Thank you for everything you do. Your work is incredible. Much Love 🖤
Very impressive🌺
Where our willpower gets weak it is the required change in our environment that works amazingly
How well and in simple language he explains...not a single second it feels like I want to skip this...it's in total alignment❣
I love it! That's what I usually try to do. Balance is the key. You can have a TV, but make it hard for you to switch it on! Great point.
I have a projectors and a pull down screen which makes it difficult to watch things!
Nope. This is the real problem that depletes your willpower. Resisting temptation causes more fatigue. So, no TV in your home is far better for your productivity than hiding the remote. That's the title of this video - "Stop using your willpower."
Yeah man! It's like hanging out with good friends and people versus bad ones, same principle. Great video, thanks!
We all are Mike, i think it make us feel good to know we are not alone on the way, and the reason your videos are so successful, not just in views but in the impact it creates on us ❤ ❤
My entire family eats junk food but I still manage to resist it and I buy my own food for the house. And now I don’t have any desire for unhealthy food.
Taylor Clayton ok. But why did you have to post this 3 times?
Egenio Jaramillo didn’t realize I did 😂 I think it was one of those things where the connection was bad and it just kept posting. Sorry it bothered you so much.
good job bro not many people can do that, how’s it going with it now?
Andrew S actually really good and my rating habits even encouraged my family to follow suit and now they are eating better as well!
Taylor Clayton yessir! That’s what I love to hear keep going champ! You making a difference
I have my own method of avoiding sweets (trying to kick a sugar habit too) If you cannot avoid it like if your parent baked cookies for the whole family, therefore you can’t just throw them out, or you see everyone around you eating stuff you’re trying you restrict, pressuring you to get some. I repeat In my head that I would be so much healthier and happier if I didn’t have it (this is my ultimate goal with going off sugar processed) and Instead eat a fruit. I don’t really consider it willpower it’s just me repeating my goal in my head and meditating on the unhealthy impulse for a while. People who have a hard time controlling impulses rarely meditate on their actions and meditate on a healthier action instead
These videos are useful. All the ones I've watched so far can apply to me. Thanks for making them!
This is so true! Thank you for help me out!
Love your story and animation! Great video! :)
Where I would agree it's easier to make good choices when you're environment encourages good choices. People are not always in a position where they can create a healthier choice environment. I am living proof that you can indeed make "Good Choices" when your environment encourages bad choices. Back in 2003 or 2004 not sure which year, I stopped smoking. I lived in a house full of people who not only smoked they had no intention of stopping around me. My Brother in law in fact did everything he could to sabotage my efforts. He would try to get me to light a cigarette up for him in fact strongly suggesting it. With no one to defend my efforts I simply told him to light his own cigarette. He even admitted he was trying to sabotage my efforts.
What it boiled down to for me in situations that I decided to make healthy choices in
environments that don't support my choices was to.
No1. Forgive myself if I mess up. Don't dwell on my mistake or use it as a excuse to give up. instead I would use it as a learning tool . From what I would learn I would develop tools for me to keep from messing up again. More often than not this would be mental tools, or tools take my mind off the undesired behavior.
2. When ending one habit I would develop new heather habits to replace them. I would try to pick habits I enjoy that fit my personality.
3 I would constantly remind myself why I'm making this change. Writing it down and placing it in areas in my home or ways to take it with me would help.
What was the habit I developed to help me stop smoking in this environment. I started sucking on vitamin C lozenges and taking the wrapping from the lozenges folding it in a way to make a type of paper chain with it. As the chain grew longer I would realize how well I"m doing. My goal became to make that chain grow longer until I no longer needed the assistance of the lozenges.
Before you ask, yes my Brother in law try to sabotage that by saying that I'm just getting addicted to these vitamin C lozenges and the sugar is bad for me I won't be able to break away from them. I choose not to listen to him. After all why would I take advice from someone who. no.1 just wants to see me fail, no 2. has more bad habits than I do.
Yes, when in an environment that doesn't support your healthy choices sometimes you need to create a system that does and focus on it.
This changed my perspective! Thank you so much! 😁
I don't usually comment on UA-cam videos.. but I must say this is one of the most incredible videos I've seen.. i mean the whole channel is GREAT for someone who wants to improve their life 🥰 great job !!
Greetings from France ☺️
Im addicted to bettering myself & to this channel :D
Remember, your phone is included as your immediate environment. For examble, ordering fast food through apps!
Your videos are to the point. A bit long, but you explain the cause n solution to the problem. Awesome! Thank you for your time and great quality of content!
Thanks for your time and effort
A big barrier to this is an unwillingness to 'waste food'. Mike would've been better off tipping the plate of cookies into a bin the moment he saw it. Logically, throwing them away is *less* wasteful than destroying them via digestion and creating unwanted fat on your waist. But it feels wrong.
he could've simply given it to his neighbours lmao
@@anushwah Yeah, that's an option if you have the sort of neighbours you can do that with. Though honestly, their waistlines and brains probably don't need the sugar hit either. That's just passing the buck.
yeah that is true, change your habits by changing your environment is much better, if I buy sweets I eat it pretty fast, if I have no sweets around I wait for next meal time, or find a fruit.
Why make it hard for oneself :D
Thankyou it's helpful and you explained it in a practical way very well !
Thanks for the amazing video loved it!
I've been trying to implement this in my house for years and so far my main obsticle has been the rest of the family...
Most of my work is translating these ideas to them, but mostly those who aren't on the same page resist change, think I'm being to harsh and and "not fun". I don't blame them, mostly I blame myself for not being better at choosing the healthier option in the fridge. I do think however that we could all benefit from doing this. Just not buying stuff that we have low resistence to - away from the eye is away from the mouth so to speak.
In fact I've come to think that the only real device that I can't "eliminate" is my smartphone even though it often disrupts my attention, simply because I depend on it too much.
One day I read an answer on Quora to a question like "What are some productive life hacks?" which was: when you work on a computer, put your smartphone behind your screen so you can't see it. Best advice *ever*. You will be amazed by how much more focused you become in the next hours, especially if you put it on silent mode. Let me know how that works for you.
That means you are putting everything on willpower and discipline and that's often limited
But in today's time people will prefer bringing TV remote from another room instead of reading the book which is there on couch.
I agree with u
So helpful, thanks very much👍
Very nicely crafted video. Thanks
Doing only the right thing would have a counter effect. It would get boring eventually and you'd like to substitute it with another action. Balance is the key. It won't be the end if you occassionally (from time to time, rarely) eat sweets, watch TV or play a computer game. It would introduce diversity in your life, variety which would make things interesting for you.
You don't have to do only one right thing - you can do several different right things, like drinking water, juice, stum, milk and tea, which are all relatively healthy, instead of soda and coke. You may read books, play an instrument, meditate, watch educative contend and here and there some very good movies instead of endlessly watching things like Netflix series or anime.
@@matouskrizek1668 I like this. One drop of a bad thing in an ocean of many things, most of which are good, would not be a problem at the end. :)
@@shaggybg You are right, most likely not. Nobody is perfect under any circumstances.

I lost my remote trying this...
I loved this video!! Thanks 😊 Your channel helped me too much! 😊
Thank you for your phenomenal video!
I'd get in the car and drive the 2 miles for the soda. Not giving up so easily!
That's the spirit! 😁
I would walk the 2 miles to get the soda and justify that I got some exercise getting the soda.
I would just drink water...
I’m trying to eat healthy and cut down on sugar and processed food, but my mom keeps buying sweets and spreading them in the house. I was fine till she started buying my favorites too, I just couldn’t resist😔
Two possibilities... First, your mom forgot that you told her or doesn’t know that you’re trying to eat healthy. Second, you told her but she’s trying to sabotage you. If she suddenly started buying your favorites after you told her about your lifestyle change and she usually doesn’t get your favorite snacks, it’s probably her wanting you to fail. It’s actually pretty common for anyone you tell about a goal to do that. That’s why I don’t tell people anymore. I recommend keeping healthy snacks in your room (or your pocket) so your less likely to grab the snickers off the table.
Brandi ohh I think I should explain the situation more, as I don’t think she’s trying to sabotage me. I have 2 older siblings who don’t need to lose weight, and she mainly buys the snacks for them. She tries to not get my favorites but she ends up doing it because they like it. She’s trying to eat healthy too, but she feels it’s unfair to my siblings to cut out sweets from the house and expects me to have more self control I guess. I tried telling them to keep the snacks in their rooms instead of having them everywhere but it didn’t really work😪
Thanks for the recommendation tho! It’s a good idea to get some healthy snack and put them in my room so I can have them around me instead of the unhealthy ones.
I hadn’t considered that option. It’s usually the first two. Glad that I gave you an idea to try. Hope that everything works out for you and you get your eating habits and body where you would like.
It’s okay, I could see how you’d come to that conclusion if you didn’t know the full situation. And thank you!
@@TheDinosphere Another idea is to keep at hand some chewing gums, so when you want to eat only out of boredom, you can pop a chewing gum instead
Thank you so much🙇
Thank you so much .
I wish I could limit the amount of bad food in my house. But its difficult when you live with other people who aren't trying to be conscious about what they are eating.
yup. It's easier to do it when you live alone.

Hey man, good channel, but you should reference where you got this knowledge. I would assume it was from Atomic Habits by James Clear, but if it is another source i'd like to know! (And im sure others would too :) )

Thank you sir for your advice but i want to ask something that there are still somethings which we can't hide as we need them but at the same time they are dangerous as well... As for me, I'm a Science Student and my education is incomplete without mobile phone but at the same time, I get distracted from studies and start munching on mobile.... What to be done? Please help
Exactly..
delete apps like youtube and facebook, turn off notifications, and for apps you absolutely need but you usually waste time (like email), put them in a place on your home screen where you would have to swipe a lot of times, and put them in catagory folder things to make it harder. hope this helps :)
Also, if you don't want to go the all of nothing way by deleting mobile apps, if you use an Android and it's running on Android 10, there is a "Do not disturb" mode where you can set automatic rules and apps + notifications that you find distracting turn off while the mode is on. There's also a bedtime mode that makes everything on your phone black n white or grayscale. It's hard to find apps interesting without any colour. Just some hacks...
Watched this with my kids. Very helpful. Thank you! After watching they asked me to subscribe to your channel. That is a good sign! Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you soo much for these beneficial videos 🙏🏻
But when you're an adult, you can just hop in the car and drive to a gas station and buy whatever you want when your willpower runs out.
Key word, "adult", you should(!) have more willpower after all.
But the video is for adults who run out of willpower. Saying that they should just have more willpower isn't helpful advice.
I know he used the example of walking 2 miles to get soda, but I would say even driving to a gas station and paying extra is many levels harder (and less likely to be selected) than if it was right in your residence. The gas station soda is completely out of sight, so nothing in your environment is sparking you to drink it. You could try going an extra step (parking further away, putting your car keys in an inconvenient place) but at the end of the day if you want soda that badly that you still overcome all that and drink it regularly anyway (AND you actually have a strong desire to quit) you need external support from other people if you want to stop.
@@luminous6969 Being reliant on willpower to function is weak. You need to have purpose, and values. Those will push you through the tough times when your 'willpower' isn't there to comfort you.
sell your car then ;)
or maybe just understand the cost difference gas + soda vs (almost) free water
or any reason that can help you keep your environnement "safe"
This content is borrowed from Atomic Habits book by James Clear
Exactly! People on here don't know this guy presents ideas from books or other people as if they were is own, and never credits them. I suggest you all look at 'AfterSkool' or 'The Art of Improvement' to see self-improvement videos that actually credit their sources.
Aw. Is he actually plagiarising or just teaching based on research he's done?
Atomic Habits was not completely original either. Good motivators always borrow content and re-word it in a way that might be more accessible to the average person. One idea, explained multiple ways....one is better understood by this person, the other version is better understood by another person. These ideas are as old as Aristotle and Socrates......just re-worked multiple times through multiple eras. The message getting out is the important thing.

When I have some free time, I must reach for my phone. And then I have a choice: read book or play some stupid games. I've tried to remove games, but reinstalling them is extremely easy.

This is so true. I actually do this most of the time. If you're feeling motivated, do everything at once. So that when you're already in a "lazy" situation, your crop will be harvested in time :)))
“When scientists analyze people who appear to have tremendous amounts of self-control it turns out those individuals are not different than you. Instead the evidence said that discipline people are better at optimizing their enviroment...” That’s being better than me! That’s why I always find this theory so flawed or at least impractical
Me too lol. I guess they mean potential though. Perhaps we could learn to better optimise our environment if we focused on that instead of wasting energy on willfully avoiding temptation. Maybe try one small step with the biggest consequence and enjoy the benefit for weeks before making another step. I think those apples might be mine.

I can imagine that limiting temptions might be a solution in some cases, but what you suggest here can also lead to some kind of eating disorder: next time Mike buys the cookie, he will eat the whole box in 5 minutes, then feel ashamed for failing and buys more cookies and this goes on. And this time it will be harder to end this circle.
