- Procrastination isn't something to be ashamed about. Especially if you are wired to work in seasons. Or if you can only focus when it's time to focus. I'll show you a pretty stupid way to get yourself into deep work.

Dan - waiting on that video of how you write, script & perform your UA-cam videos. Do you use a teleprompter? Read off screen? Practice? Either make a video on it or send me a text buddy haha
He is soo good at his craft.
In all seriousness, that would be a helpful video.
Nice to see you here denmo
I think he just read his newsletter and say it in his own words back to the camera and go a bit oftopic there and there. But it's all practice to get the moderation right between speaking freely and reading.
@@Jimmy-bc4rh that make sense, this way it doesn’t sound all forced and robotic
Oh wow I have always felt this about myself. The worst part to navigate is spending all of the procrastination time in guilt and fear rather than peace and knowing that when the iron strikes it'll all work out.
Exactly!!!!
It is good that you know what works for you. Forcing myself doesn't work, but self management without stress works better for me.
Yes. Even better with regular meditation. Creation is a process we surrender to as artists. The work does itself, through us, as we prepare for and allow it. Make space for the energy to enter and expand, grow and take on a life of it's own.
When I was younger I worked for a legal publisher and I had gone to a conference and when I got back I had little time to get my issue together and I wrote like seven articles in one day. I usually wrote two per day. I was so locked in it was unbelievable. Flow state is real and I try and work in blocks to maximize it. Great video as always.
Spot on! as Alex Hormozi said "do it like your life depends on it, because it does" and Dan has further explained it in the finest way possible. Doing it under a stress is exactly the way you achieve it. Otherwise, you end up in an entropy cycle.
The easiest example of this is inviting friends over when your living space is a mess - nothing gets you cleaning up faster
I hardly ever comment on any videos but, you hit a nerve! The whole Ads, Ads, Ads, thing... I feel that what has held me back is the fear of criticism of what others will think of me or say about me (yes I know it's silly! But it's a shackle non the less). I remember hearing Frank Kern saying something along the lines of, "Don't worry about ass clown_69's, comment on twitter." Meaning don't give power to people that are not important in your life. And your explanation of how everyone is selling something makes all kinds of sense! I am sure you get this all the time, but... Thank you for sharing this with us that needed to hear this.
so locked in Dan’s the older brother I’ve been needing
Learning from you every day. Thanks! 🌼
I needed this the most🔥💗
I have literally lived my entire life like this lol I'm particularly notorious for not packing for a trip until literally the night before I have to leave, and still always bringing everything that I will need 😅 I have recently come to realize that it's a superpower as well, and have often found myself wondering how I can take "that thing" in me that causes me to do so well in a time crunch, and apply it to the rest of my life so that I can finally have lasting success. I'm going to re-watch this video many, many times. Thank you.
Hey Dan ! I’ve never been this early and this topic is just what I needed. Thank you 🙏🏽
Cute
Dan, I feel what you are describing as procrastination in the video is, in fact, the 'incubation' period to generate insights. A creative process go through 5 stages: 1. Preparation 2. Incubation 3. Illumination 4. Implementation 5. Evaluation. We always need a specific time for each stage (Input, Process, Output). Normally, when we are 'procrastinating', we are processing and assimilating the information (input) to synthesize an output (insight). Procrastination, as you mention, without previous preparation (proper accumulation of info/knowledge), does not lead to greater mental clarity, but to laziness and confusion (it is in this format that the term “procrastination” got its bad reputation).
Thank you for sharing this. I think you hit the nail on the head. Creativity is often misunderstood (and to a degree demonized) therefore the process is misinterpreted. I go through the phases you noted here naturally, but never had the vocabulary to ‘qualify’ them like this. So, again, thank you for sharing this insight!!!
Where do these concepts come from? They seem interesting, and I want to read about them
I used to think like this until I found out I was stuck in the same place for 15yrs, living the creative process and doing as much as I could.
When I put this kind of pressure on myself I realized that the creative process can happen in a day, or even in a few hours, and the work comes out great.
Giving myself a lot of time was procrastination, although I would like to give it other names like phases of the creative process 😅
I really needed this 💯
Work is a beautiful thing. ❤
this video so chill I could listen to it while working... Your videos are so good to listen to while working dan. and also while driving . It's minimal. It's the anti thesis of today's world of high retention editing which is annoying if you listen to it without looking at it. You hear whooses here and there.. it's annoying.
Definitely a super power I do my best work under pressure but I think allot about how I'm going to organize myself when crunch time arrives
This was right on time. Something I've known intuitively but others don't get it. I've stopped trying to convince people even after they ask... How do you get so much done? What I loved about this video is that you laid it out systematically. I'm doing many of the individual elements, but not with this much clarity. I took notes and will make some shifts in my business because this is what I was looking to do this quarter. Thanks for sharing the content and the announcement.
Thanks Dan, you have provided some useful and thoughts for ideas on getting myself into action. 😀
I love this!!! This is exactly me!!!! Always been and always felt guilty and judged about it - you totally changed my perspective!!! THANK YOU!!!
I'm impressed Dan. You make me think about things that I would not think about. Thanks
Good information. Thanks.
Thank you Dan !
Solid value and delivery, as usual. I've noticed that every time there is a clear deadline outside of my control, my creativity and focus go through the roof. Also the quality of the work increases since much of it happens in flow.
Those 30min hit home! 🎯
Procrastination struggle on the last two bullet points - Last minute client work and no one managing you in business. Touché! 🔥😅🎯❤
Noted. ✨
Exactly what I neeeded nowwwww
Thank you for the material you present. Not only is it informative but insightful.
Thank you!
The Sunday videos are getting me through my post Murph training session walks 🙏
I’m obsessed with your videos!! Best video I’ve seen so far!
this video has changed my life. I'm just like you and need to feel the pressure of deadline to get into flow state. Forcing my self to go to the gym everyday at 17:00 massively boosted my productivity.
so good if you watch all the way through to the methodology portion
This is amazing. I have noticed sometimes I'm procrastinating when i either don't need to do it or i need a better idea on how to do it.
dan, thank you thats all i could say
Really appreciate your work, mate.
Just turned 29 this year. As someone who has drifted through life and felt rather aimless toward my goals because I had no idea that agency and research was what I needed (most likely other factors as well but those resonate the most) I only recently found your videos and they have given me an amazing starting point towards improving my life.
In my current level of self mastery you yourself seem unfathomable, I recognize this as a slight envy though. 😅
I play a multitude of musical instruments. and with a passion for music, entrepreneurship is something I never truly considered but now realize it would be nothing short of beneficial in my world.
Deep respect and much love from canada. 🇨🇦
Understanding how to be my own boss is something I have been learning. Just the video I needed.
Love your talk, Dan. Sometimes it feels like you're speaking to me. Amazing. I'm not a procrastinator, but I have so much on my plate, it is crazy that I don't have time for myself and yet, I'm not rich. I have to rewrite my game plans for my business for my clients.
Your ability to explain is exceptional. Truly a unique perspective
I've always felt the same about this ❤
Ugh , I’m so tired, irritated by my chronic procrastination which is continuing since months after I went through a bad phase in my life , I’m stuck in functional freeze mode. Since then, I stopped being productive and feels my life is in gutter. I am gonna watch this video (I hope I don’t procrastinate this)
Great video!! It was very timely for me!! Finishing my sales page now!!! In that final stretch :) launching soon!
BRILLIANT! again!
I had to pause to say: I am deeply grateful for your work and content you create. Thank you so much!
I'm focused on a new life changing habit. I recall in one of your videos you mentioned that if you don't like your environment....then change it. So I did by renting shared co working office space. The first version of me becoming a future business owner is getting up at 0530 am (first habit) to work on my one person business then later in the afternoon I switch to wearing the rat race hat to working second shift. (I play two roles) The great thing about this is the transition I've set in motion. My goal is to transition 100 percent to the first part of the day going full time in my on line business. It's a lot of work as I also develop a new mindset habit that conditions me during this transition. The time walk into that office I have control of my time and what I do. No boss to answer to as I could leave early if I want. (That felt liberating). While in the second half of the day I rent my time with labor according to their plan. This is how I'm turning my vision into reality. My office environment helps me focus as I transition away from my rat race job I want to be free from. Rather than build someone's brand I'm also building my own. 😊
Another stellar video!
Fascinating take on using procrastination as a strategic advantage! 🌟 Harnessing that last-minute pressure can indeed catalyze incredible productivity and breakthroughs, turning perceived weaknesses into powerful assets.
when we trust our process AND give space to our work through procrastination we can create the conditions to acces latent creativity, deeper flow, and a sens of magic to enter the work - but is has to come from the belief that procrastination can be an ally.
I'm FOCUSED in my work 16 Hours daily thanks to you, now that's DEEP FOCUS!
How do you do it ?
@@onaraider2007 one shall train thy inner bi**tch
Dude, this is gold
Thank you for this one
Great video
I'm really loving you Dan!
Allah bless your way ❤
Thank you
never stop posting Dan
Dan you smile a little bit more now!
woah thats how i am feeling - i am sure i listen to you on my other channel so this is cool you popped up, and perfect for me to hear now cheers shalom
Thank you, Dan for inspiring us to think outside the box. Your videos encourage me to build a legacy to create the future I want for my family and creativity.
"And if you understand that success is a result of skill and knowledge, not luck, I have trust you'll figure it out" 🔥🔥🔥
I used to shame myself for not working enough. Ever since implementing a 4 hour work day with no distractions, I’ve been able to obtain more results. Appreciate your perspective on this.
Dan someone might diagnose you with adhd based on what you’ve shared but you seem to have found ways to work with your brain and it’s very impressive.
Organic flow is a must.
My friend, really impressed by your personality and your idology,
Just a vedio suggestion on what books to read (other than yours of course 😅), or what books lead you to where you are now
Thanks Dan. :) I am looking forward to get your long hair back!
“ 8:58 I Spread this myth in one of my previous videos but I am here to correct it”. One of the most valuable green flags to note about Dan. He’s extremely real and transparent and his advice is spot on and as he grows and learns he takes us along with him and is evolving without being fake. It’s one of the greatest golden nuggets on social media when you find someone like this. Awesome video right before I finish recording a song I have procrastinated for years, right before I open the Key West Songwriter’s Festival in 7 days 😂😅
Goodness gracious. I feel seen! 😅 The key, like you said, is to harness it. Otherwise it’s a blessing and a curse all in one vs. it just being a blessing.
Hes talking about burning the bridges, its from Think and Grow Rich
Procrastination could really ruin or build you 20s , only if you have control over it.
Did both for me , I retired but now I'm basically 25 with consistent income but I need more to do but now it's all in my hands
@@Aconte313you retired at 25? That’s incredible dude, how did you do it?
Brilliant 🎉
30 seconds in..I’ll watch it later lol. Dan Koes awesome and legit. I’ll come back to check this out for sure.
Procrastination is not a bad thing after all. Reverse engineer it and you are good to go
i feel bad for the people who don't watch your videos. genuinely life changing.
Wooow. I love that. Figure it out or be crushed. That’s so much better than the alternative though by a long shot, isn’t it? I think the alternative has been slowly killing my my whole life.
Oh wow, now I get it
Hey that's my default strategy exactly
Love it❤
This is actually me. Thanks for sharing that this is actually a way to productivity for those of us who hate planners lol
I procrastinate like crazy but it’s because nothing stimulates me. When I do my own home projects or things that interest me, I can work morning to night. I just need to start something on my own already
What are the „own home projects“? Maybe you can build something related to them?
@@nazvannorel970 like fixing up my home, gardening, painting, etc. Those are the projects that allow to dive in and not even think about the time and the work involved. I wish I felt the same way about work and making money
@@whitewolf9547keep trying things
Perceiving type
You targeted me...I procrastinate to GREAT result...I become inspired in the process of the seemingly lost time...All of a sudden I become limitless...with unmatched clarity.....It all is based on developing ones NATURAL TYALENTS...I am writing a book about this as it relates to children...The results are incredible in child rearing,,,But THX for this concept!
Youre videos became so moneyand profit driven. Almost all topic is geared towards making more money and selling. Greed is slowly going to overtake you.
Money is a tool.
Im creating a Shopify App development course, I was doubtful and pesismistc about the idea because of my Asian accent but because of your videos I’m inspired to just do it anyways, We got nothing to lose 😅
Dan, what is your thoughts on music? I personally think now that it's a big instant gratification that people overlook.
Your smile Sir :)
Procrastination is definitely a double-side sword ，for vast majority is an excuse to escape from the upcoming reality . I describe myself as a procrastination person, but that’s only because I’m a slower learner, I’m learning, making progress, it seems slowly, but I know eventually I’ll make it ! never stop making progress, sometimes later is better than never .
If I understand your message correctly here, procrastination is not a problem but an opportunity or skill. I have found that through hypnotherapy, I have taken getting lost in thought, which originally I thought was a problem, to my advantage to reduce my anxiety and increase my confidence.
can you do another video more focused on fabricating fake deadlines effectively and give different examples ...
Can I ask? How many chrome tabs do you have open on your computer? I have 114 right now. Wondering if its part of non focus/ procrastination
Procrastination can sort of be about weighing things up and trying to work out is it going to work or is it not going to work making sure when you jump you are going to land positively figuratively speaking in a positive way of looking at it i guess, its looking at all the pros and cons before you take the dive
Same message every video. the wording on this one i resonate more with.
Hey Dan, I am amazed with your physical transformation. You look very different from when I saw your „younger” videos. How did you achieve that? It seems like your testosterone has gone through the roof. Is it through natural means or TRT? Id love to know cause I already applied so many things like workout, no BPA/receipts, high saturated fat, sleep, and few others and I definitely feel more confident and have higher test, but I feel like it should be even higher.
Have you tried to train first thing in the AM and doing deep work later? Would that be a bad strategy in your opinion? Thanks a lot! Greetings from Spain
This is me!
Oh thanks Dan, now I can officially procrastinate for another 30 minutes
This is me
I love learning but i never went to school since i was about 8 but since i was able to read i was able to self educate. I have many things i would like to do but dont know what to commit to. I also feel i over think and analyse things aswell as obsess over learning things. I understand what to do but at the same time i dont know how to do.....? Is that a situation where i need actual practical practice? Another thing whats against me or maybe makes things more difficult is because i never went to school its like i am unable to socialise and get burnt out easy like i can only concentrate on one thing in a day. They say recently ive got autism depression and i see somethings thatbmake me beleive i also am dubious these conditions actually dont excist,but are a product of life and the other just a personal trate. I was on drugs for a very young age but been off it all for 2 1/2 years. I justwanted to give a bit of background for context. Lately ive isolated myself as everyone i know just takes drugs or are just happy working a job i hate and talking about fight, shagging, taking drugs and crap in general. Ive been learning diffrent things but mainly out of interest. How do you take the next steep and get actual practical experience and decide what you want. I know thats long winded but it scares me thinking about my life being how it is i ten pluss years. I'd rather be dead. Id be happy with a simple life but with purpose and travel and also travel my most ideal job in conservation with endangered animals. Im 34 with lilited qualifications only ones from prison. Please give aome advice anyone sorry for the long text. But hopefully there's many people like this. Most things i like aint people orientated. I want few quality friends i can give my life for
Dan posts i click
The big things is that often crrators overhype the "value" that they bring. Rarely there is a real value there and just because creators think they create value, more often than not its noise, not value.
