Only 3 hours? I stay on youtube at least 5-6 hours a day, sometimes even 7 hours. It's bad dude, it's very bad. These are our drugs... Sometimes is very weird because i want to give up to my addictions, but i spent hours on watching videos like this. It's a loop. You can't escape.
what a load of bullcrap v: you just need to lower the amount of time spent on yt videos and replace the free time with hobbies or stuff you still have to do (to work or school) and you need to do it no matter what don't just wait for magical motivation to come in, you need to have enough will power to do it!
I have advice for people who struggle with staying in bed most of the day, whether on their phone or just sleeping rather than doing work. Every time you wake up, make an effort to MAKE YOUR BED. It sounds stupid, I know, but since I’ve started doing this I’ve been like 100% more productive. Once your bed is made, getting back into your bed to lay down is harder because you don’t want to just throw away the work you’ve done to get your bed tidy. Additionally, if you happen to have a bad day it’s nice to return to a nice made bed. Remember, you can do anything you put your mind to. If you’re reading this, I KNOW you will be successful, never give up 👍
Changing the environment is extremely effective. I was a very dull child living in a dysfunctional family but once I was out I realised that I have so much potential. You can choose to change! ❤
i 100% agree, when i was studying for my exams i changed all my room and centralised the studying table at the middle of the room and clean out all of the distractions. that helped me alot.
out of all of the motivational or helpful videos ive watched, this one was the most useful because it’s straight to the point and it’s based on what everyone “actually” does, not anything else.
Dude one thing I love about you is that your one of the only artists that can change their style with still keeping the reason why we love watching you. Your authentic you know. That's my goal with my channel.
disabling the notifications for snapchat and instagram has changed my habit a lot. Not having the visual cue of a notification makes me feel less like im missing out and helps me focus.

Quitted using Facebook and I'm feeling much better than even before . Used to bump into useless feedbacks to just be more depressed .

I had applied this myself a while back when I removed my 1TB hard drive from my computer. It was full of games, movies and series that for years had kept me hooked to my laptop. But when my final year of college rolled around I knew I wasn't going to meet deadlines, study for exams and do my school project as long as I had all these distractions. So I bought a 100GB hard drive for my laptop, installed the necessary apps and transfered all my school work. Within days I noticed the difference, all I did was work when I was on my laptop and I ended up performing better that final year than all other years.
I was a huge facebook addict. I used to spend 12-13 hours on Facebook. Couldn't give up totally on procrastination (still netflix is better than fb tbh) but quitting Facebook helped me to step out of depression lil by lil. Tbh. I was giving time to bring my creative side out, reading books, journaling, running just to pass time. And it reduces anxiety to some level because you are not constantly checking what someone is upto and not comparing your life with theirs. It was really hard first week but then i got used to it. Try it. Trust me deactivating fb will improve you.
This is so true! All of my biggest habit changes in life happened when I physically left a job, school, country, area etc. My environment was automatically different, so my behaviour easily changed as well. With a little effort you could definitely change up your surroundings without doing something as dramatic as those examples.
I’m 15 years old and I’ve been unhappy great part of my life, but since last year I’ve taken on the challenge of doing sports as a routine and never skip training, and I swear that since I took on this habit I’ve been feeling way better with myself. Whenever I skip training for some reason I suddenly get sad, with no motivation what so ever. So take my advice and practice whatever sport you like, and go out and take some sunlight. I won’t lie to you, I spend around 5 hours playing games or with my phone everyday, but by having a routine and something to look forward to, I feel great.
Solid advice. I am working on my PhD thesis and I found it hard not to procrastinate. So I made single simple change. I started working on my PhD using my office lap top. I use my desktop to browse the web, watch series, play games so sitting down to work on it triggered all those desires. But I use my business lap top for work, so when I open it up my brain fires up - its time to work. It made a lot of difference in my productivity

Thank you so much for this video! It's so easy to get bogged down in a everyday routine. It's always important to be mindful and change your environment if you are unhappy or unsatisfied in the position you are in. Keeping this in mind, everyone can live full out.
Great video. I quit smoking weed after months of telling myself I needed to quit by one day just going outside with my bong and dropping it onto the concrete. I made sure to take my time cleaning up the pieces and really listening to the noises of the broken glass. Strangely it brought a lot of comfort to me just hearing the final clunk of the broken glass as I threw it in the dumpster. Deleted my dealer's contact info and have just been trying to avoid the topic of weed altogether to keep my mind clear. Whenever I want to smoke I pull out a book and read a few pages or if I don't have a book I just meditate and reaffirm myself of why I quit and how strong I am without it.
Great video!! A packed gym bag before hand seems to be a great idea!!! Bad habit is usually a way of ourselves fighting with the stress and boredom. I usually give myself appreciation for all the tiny steps I carry out in replacing a bad habit with a good one... especially replacing eating chocolates with fruits :)
My biggest addiction right now is the UA-cam shorts. I have decided that I won't ever go onto those from now on because then the scrolling mechanism ticks in and I just constantly keep on scrolling. Also it has decreased my focus to A lot so I have also decided that I'll watch only your videos or longer ones to make it a habit to stick to it. It is one of your concepts from the other videos. Hope I can get the best off of whatever I have decided.
things like UA-cam are the only ones that bring joy to my life. if I were to get rid of it I'd end up dead by committing bad to myself. so think twice before eliminating "bad" habits
Exactly how i feel about Social Media but i always mange to come back to it, especially since I've been trying to take this youtube journey more seriously
@@-funmemes-9759 fear of progress, fear of change, fear of losing something familiar, fear of going independent, fear of discovering new things, fear of boredom, fear of making mistakes .... and each of these things can be broken into smaller details and micro-issues that make up bigger issues even more, but they all have the same characteristics and/or effect that Rosa Rosa mentioned: self sabotage. habits are familiar things. getting rid of bad habits means getting rid of something familiar, for better or worse. some people find it hard to deal with that. if youre dependent to the bad habit in any way shape or form ("if i snort this line o' coke this will help with me creativity") then that'd lead to fear of going independent: "but what am i gonna do without it? can i even live without it? can i even *_function_* without it?" some bad habits might be done collectively, or you have buddies that do similar thing and it what creates the bond between yous, e.g. self depricating. to get rid of that habit means potentially cutting people off, severing friendships (or ""friendships""), and perhaps even making enemies. thats scary. and lonely. so we sabotage ourselves from doing it. this also relates back to fear of losing something familiar. i think it's rather well known by now that a huge reason for procrastination, a bad habit, is fear of making mistakes. so rather than trying to do it and potentially screw it up, just dont do it. or maybe do it, but later. or maybe tomorrow. what about next week? nah, next month sounds better. of course, these are just mine own take of Rosa Rosa's comment. maybe they meant something else entirely. regardless, i do think these points do relate to self sabotage.
@@mophead_xu hey, this was a great description of self sabatoge. I was wondering how do you personally deal with situations that lead you to self sabatoge?
Before, I was kinda hook on facebook for the whole night. And also, I spent most of my time laying in bed and surfing Internet. But since I have to learn English through videos, I just watch bunch of motivational speeches which I untill now still consider to be boring. However, listening them a lot can affect my consciousness. And now, I dont work so hard but I genuinely rarely visit Fb . Feel quite satisfied with what I have done
Im not over weight but I eat a lot of junk food and I wanna grow some muscles and be healthy and go to the gym. Thank you for the tips I'm gonna try my best, wish me luck🤗
My addiction to UA-cam ruined my childhood. I've been isolated in my room for 5-6 years now apart from going to school watching hours and hours of UA-cam a day. I have made so many attempts to be productive but in the end it always pulls me back in.
I actually had the same bad habit so i deleted all my socials and just kept Instagram and UA-cam and i usually use UA-cam for gaining informations about stuff i need to know about in my life like keto diet recipes and exercises and some architectural ideas since I'm going to study architecture the next year and just keep my life healthy and activate.
Well thanks, I used cues as:- I wrote formulas of trigonometry and calculus on my whole body, so that whenever I see myself in mirror I began to study.
How to get over a habit OK here we go keep yourself busy and set a specific time to do your bad habit if you replaced it with something better most chances you won't even do it another thing you don't have to delete social media just invert the colors and make your phone more disinteresting worked like magic for me
I´ve done some of it myself... I uninstalled social midia apps from my devices and even deleted some of my accounts, from doing that I could find the time I wanted to read the books and take courses I intented. Simple as this, there are no short cuts, just change the triggers
This works! I play cello, and i wanted to get into the habit of practicing every day. So instead of keeping my cello in its case in my closet, i got an instrument rack and hung it on my wall. Now every time i walk into my room i get that visual cue. "Oh, thats your cello. Have you practiced today?" Really helped me out, and i started to improve at a much faster rate
In addition to the Gym part, what helped me was getting a pair of dumbbells/weights at home and just STARTING the exercise. With this, I was able to build the habit, and then eventually I got a pair of adjustable dumbbells to set whatever I weight I want to workout with. It's quite nice not having the mental block of getting ready, going to the gym, working out around other people, whatever else you come up with to not go, etc. I am limited by my equipment but it's about starting the habit and then building on it. I can always go to the gym to progress my training further.
I wanted to learn how to draw, but when I would be about to start, I would baile and not start drawing. Now I have a peace of paper and a pencil, heck even gouache ready on the table. It actually helps. Trust me.
you are so right dude: I'm quitting my desk-job for a more outdoor one AS WELL as my Home... It took me some time to transfer... from a house to an apartment to a yurt, from near the capital (Brussels-Belgium-EU) to the forest :-) It just soot me better
I love the example of wearing gym clothes before going to sleep. However with the example illustrated above; it can be a little complex (specifically, having a partner. Since individuals are shaped by behavioral and social cues, having a partner that doesn't go the gym in the morning might in time reduce the behavioral cue from the social cue. Identities are strongly shaped by those we interact with especially when the frequency is more recurring. I had that issue and now what I do is instead of sleeping with my partner, I've started to sleep outside the bedroom on days I want to wake up earlier. This could be indicative of my behavioral cues being weaker, however now my behavioral cue and social cues are more aligned to the level of NLP desired.
So true about the sport part. What I did is buy myself some sport wear like running shoes and t shirts. And now I feel like going for a run or outside activities. Not just because to have the equipment to do so but a state of mind to act on it. by biuing something that makes you feel doing it
i'm so addicted to instagram that i litterally clicked on your profile pic and waited for a story to pop up .. i'm not kidding .. the frame made it look like an instagram story
@@zappadipasta9073 and *that* is exactly why I have my profile picture like that haha. Glad it worked. Why don't you go ahead and subscribe while you're at it 😉
Why am I watching videos about self improvement in the middle of the night when I should be getting rest for school. That’s the most ironic thing ever.
Wow. This is... immediate. I tend to sit on my bed and browsd the internet, and sit on my folding chair and play video games. Before I sat down on my bed I folded up my chair and put it away. The moment I was done on my bed and I got up to move to my chair, and simply didn't see it there, I changed my sheets instead.
As a 16 yo who smoked for 4 years it was quite hard to not smoking at all, the first thing i did was that i didn't take my lighter with me when i goed to school or out and as easy as that i kinda droped the habit of smoking.
I did the exact same thing about a week ago. It's impressive the amount of time I used to spend on Instagram. I feel so much better now in so many levels.
Great video. I am currently trying to stop smoking weed after over 8 years of habitual use. Every time I try to stop I have wicked anger issues, and get frustrated at everything. Ill keep trying to reorganize my environment to give myself a better chance of quitting.
I think I'm going to use the gym cues to get ready for my part time job. Preparing my outfit, packing my bag, and everything else I need for fast food.
When it comes to unhealthy treats I only buy what I crave for that day as I typically binge and having a stockpile leads to temptation and more binging. This may also save you cash. You get more exercise if you only have food for a day and have to go to the store every day. Especially if you have one within walking distance.
I used to spend too much time on Facebook so I decided to delete the app from my phone and it helped me a lot. If I need to check something from time to time I just log in from my laptop for no longer than 15min.👍 And for Instagram I made a notification pop up on my screen whenever I reach 40min a day in the app and I stop using it.
I find it hard not to look or waste a lot of time on my phone when I am studying. But if I just put my phone in another room, then it becomes too much of an effort to go and get it. A small change with huge effects!
I have started putting my alarm inside my gym bag, which I place in the kitchen under the table. When the alarm goes off I’m forced to walk to the kitchen, get the bag from under the table, and open it. At that point I’m awake enough that I won’t go back to sleep and I’m already holding the gym bag so there’s no way I’m forgetting what I’m supposed to do. It works great!
I give myself positive rewards that don’t relate to my bad habit. Like I reward myself with a delicious breakfast and coffee if I wake up early. If I wake up late, I can’t have this reward but there’s no negative reinforcement. I could but I’m not sure what. I could treat myself with a mani/pedicure or a bubble bath on my rest day if I workout 6 days a week.
Remind me of 6 years ago i used to put a book in my bag, although i don't read it often but during waiting hour i will unconsciously take it out and read a few page. I think i should put it back in my bag from now on.
Only 3 hours? I stay on youtube at least 5-6 hours a day, sometimes even 7 hours. It's bad dude, it's very bad. These are our drugs... Sometimes is very weird because i want to give up to my addictions, but i spent hours on watching videos like this. It's a loop. You can't escape.

things like UA-cam are the only ones that bring joy to my life. if I were to get rid of it I'd end up dead by committing bad to myself. so think twice before eliminating "bad" habits
In other words: Do not fight your laziness, USE IT !!!
Underrated comment 👌
yeah , your comment is truly underrated
Exactly how i feel about Social Media but i always mange to come back to it, especially since I've been trying to take this youtube journey more seriously
ın order to get rid of bad habits, we should solve the self-sabotage issue first I think
What do u mean by self sabotage?
That issue sounds like my entire life right now.
Care to go more into detail ?
@@-funmemes-9759 fear of progress, fear of change, fear of losing something familiar, fear of going independent, fear of discovering new things, fear of boredom, fear of making mistakes .... and each of these things can be broken into smaller details and micro-issues that make up bigger issues even more, but they all have the same characteristics and/or effect that Rosa Rosa mentioned: self sabotage.
habits are familiar things. getting rid of bad habits means getting rid of something familiar, for better or worse. some people find it hard to deal with that. if youre dependent to the bad habit in any way shape or form ("if i snort this line o' coke this will help with me creativity") then that'd lead to fear of going independent: "but what am i gonna do without it? can i even live without it? can i even *_function_* without it?"
some bad habits might be done collectively, or you have buddies that do similar thing and it what creates the bond between yous, e.g. self depricating. to get rid of that habit means potentially cutting people off, severing friendships (or ""friendships""), and perhaps even making enemies. thats scary. and lonely. so we sabotage ourselves from doing it. this also relates back to fear of losing something familiar.
i think it's rather well known by now that a huge reason for procrastination, a bad habit, is fear of making mistakes. so rather than trying to do it and potentially screw it up, just dont do it. or maybe do it, but later. or maybe tomorrow. what about next week? nah, next month sounds better.
of course, these are just mine own take of Rosa Rosa's comment. maybe they meant something else entirely. regardless, i do think these points do relate to self sabotage.
@@mophead_xu hey, this was a great description of self sabatoge. I was wondering how do you personally deal with situations that lead you to self sabatoge?
Before, I was kinda hook on facebook for the whole night. And also, I spent most of my time laying in bed and surfing Internet.
But since I have to learn English through videos, I just watch bunch of motivational speeches which I untill now still consider to be boring. However, listening them a lot can affect my consciousness. And now, I dont work so hard but I genuinely rarely visit Fb .
Feel quite satisfied with what I have done
Im not over weight but I eat a lot of junk food and I wanna grow some muscles and be healthy and go to the gym. Thank you for the tips I'm gonna try my best,
wish me luck🤗
My addiction to UA-cam ruined my childhood. I've been isolated in my room for 5-6 years now apart from going to school watching hours and hours of UA-cam a day. I have made so many attempts to be productive but in the end it always pulls me back in.
Boi I spend on average 5 hours on UA-cam each day
Rohan Alexander beat 7
ruby brown bear beat 16 I wake up after 8 hours of sleep and play games and watch gaming videos lol
I spend literally the entire day on UA-cam
well I spend 23h on youtube when I finished my studies... an extremely bad habit
I spend 18 hrs
you are so right with the social media, sometimes I just turn off my phone just that I can concentrate. it's just eating my time ://
I actually had the same bad habit so i deleted all my socials and just kept Instagram and UA-cam and i usually use UA-cam for gaining informations about stuff i need to know about in my life like keto diet recipes and exercises and some architectural ideas since I'm going to study architecture the next year and just keep my life healthy and activate.
I literally did this like 3 months ago, works like a charm.
I just don't sit on Facebook because there's nothing there.
There is literally no difference between my gym clothes an pj's tho
Thought I was the only one who went to the gym in my onesie
who the hell wears pajamas lol
And I'm addicted to your UA-cam videos
Well thanks, I used cues as:-
I wrote formulas of trigonometry and calculus on my whole body, so that whenever I see myself in mirror I began to study.
How to get over a habit OK here we go keep yourself busy and set a specific time to do your bad habit if you replaced it with something better most chances you won't even do it another thing you don't have to delete social media just invert the colors and make your phone more disinteresting worked like magic for me
Thanks for the being concerned and recommending this video for me UA-cam
Lmao
Ironic
UA-cam cares for u lol.
I´ve done some of it myself... I uninstalled social midia apps from my devices and even deleted some of my accounts, from doing that I could find the time I wanted to read the books and take courses I intented. Simple as this, there are no short cuts, just change the triggers
“the power of habits” - charles duhigg great book .
This works! I play cello, and i wanted to get into the habit of practicing every day. So instead of keeping my cello in its case in my closet, i got an instrument rack and hung it on my wall. Now every time i walk into my room i get that visual cue. "Oh, thats your cello. Have you practiced today?" Really helped me out, and i started to improve at a much faster rate
I filled up my room with paints and instruments.....
But it was untouched for months
Yeah I feel awful whenever I waste the opportunity to do something different.
In addition to the Gym part, what helped me was getting a pair of dumbbells/weights at home and just STARTING the exercise. With this, I was able to build the habit, and then eventually I got a pair of adjustable dumbbells to set whatever I weight I want to workout with. It's quite nice not having the mental block of getting ready, going to the gym, working out around other people, whatever else you come up with to not go, etc. I am limited by my equipment but it's about starting the habit and then building on it. I can always go to the gym to progress my training further.
I wanted to learn how to draw, but when I would be about to start, I would baile and not start drawing. Now I have a peace of paper and a pencil, heck even gouache ready on the table. It actually helps. Trust me.
DAMN SON I LOVE THIS NEW STYLE!!! No more cliche diagram lecture stuff!! Keep it up.
I love the new drawings!!!!!!!!!! Now I’m not falling asleep while watching it, you enjoy it more I’d say - seeing your easy but clear drawings :)
you are so right dude: I'm quitting my desk-job for a more outdoor one AS WELL as my Home... It took me some time to transfer... from a house to an apartment to a yurt, from near the capital (Brussels-Belgium-EU) to the forest :-) It just soot me better
I love the example of wearing gym clothes before going to sleep. However with the example illustrated above; it can be a little complex (specifically, having a partner. Since individuals are shaped by behavioral and social cues, having a partner that doesn't go the gym in the morning might in time reduce the behavioral cue from the social cue.
Identities are strongly shaped by those we interact with especially when the frequency is more recurring. I had that issue and now what I do is instead of sleeping with my partner, I've started to sleep outside the bedroom on days I want to wake up earlier. This could be indicative of my behavioral cues being weaker, however now my behavioral cue and social cues are more aligned to the level of NLP desired.
I really appreciate that you gave us a suggestion from your own experience
So true about the sport part.
What I did is buy myself some sport wear like running shoes and t shirts. And now I feel like going for a run or outside activities. Not just because to have the equipment to do so but a state of mind to act on it. by biuing something that makes you feel doing it
thank you man
now i am realizing the my condition
you really helped me to open my mind
i wont forget you
liked you video for future references
Thank you so much ! In way or another you helped me chanching my life
This is how I got away from my bad habit of playing game.
I played so much that I got tired and bored of it.
Now I use the time for my music class.
*_Habits!_* one of my favorite topics. Can't wait to watch this. 👀💥 Thanks!
i'm so addicted to instagram that i litterally clicked on your profile pic and waited for a story to pop up .. i'm not kidding .. the frame made it look like an instagram story
@@zappadipasta9073 and *that* is exactly why I have my profile picture like that haha. Glad it worked. Why don't you go ahead and subscribe while you're at it 😉
@@zappadipasta9073 just updated it to look even more like it, what do you think?
@@productiveyou7069 u earned a sub
@@zappadipasta9073 I will not disappoint you 👌😘
You will not believe how this changed me...!!! so super helpful thank u so so much you really inspired me... keep doing such amazing videos!!!!!!!!!
Why am I watching videos about self improvement in the middle of the night when I should be getting rest for school. That’s the most ironic thing ever.
Implemented the pull up bar to my bathroom some time ago and I’ve definitely seen improvements all around.
Love the new art style, it's a good habit to keep using it ;)
Wow. This is... immediate. I tend to sit on my bed and browsd the internet, and sit on my folding chair and play video games. Before I sat down on my bed I folded up my chair and put it away. The moment I was done on my bed and I got up to move to my chair, and simply didn't see it there, I changed my sheets instead.
Social media used to be my everything now I hardly use it at all 😂
I installed the fb eradicator! This is what I needed for years! I liked the video and subbed.
As a 16 yo who smoked for 4 years it was quite hard to not smoking at all, the first thing i did was that i didn't take my lighter with me when i goed to school or out and as easy as that i kinda droped the habit of smoking.
Then you werent really addicted, if i didnt have a lighter i would just ask someone, go back home etc
I quit using a vape
Whut
U were 12
Stop lying
Thanks, I didn't thought about it that much, my environment appears a lot more important now. Thanks!
there is no extension for Instagram so i deleted my account it feels really bad but whatever i saved 3 hours a day
I did the exact same thing about a week ago. It's impressive the amount of time I used to spend on Instagram. I feel so much better now in so many levels.
Great video. I am currently trying to stop smoking weed after over 8 years of habitual use. Every time I try to stop I have wicked anger issues, and get frustrated at everything. Ill keep trying to reorganize my environment to give myself a better chance of quitting.
*I failed my 12th grade and iam getting so many motivation videos on my recomendation list*
Just because you failed 12th grade, it doesn't mean you're a failure in general. Chin up, bro. Push through =)
@@perlapaquibot5728 yeah 🙂😀
@@perlapaquibot5728 and it's my second time
I think I'm going to use the gym cues to get ready for my part time job. Preparing my outfit, packing my bag, and everything else I need for fast food.
I have a bad habit of watching UA-cam that’s why I’m not clicking on this video.....oh wait
Haha... A Wamen trying to sound smart,by using stale comedy...!!!...
Constipated Bowels I’m not a woman
oh ,frnd...den i feel REALLY REALLY sorry for u...
um
When it comes to unhealthy treats I only buy what I crave for that day as I typically binge and having a stockpile leads to temptation and more binging. This may also save you cash. You get more exercise if you only have food for a day and have to go to the store every day. Especially if you have one within walking distance.
I spend like 10+ hours in UA-cam every day
Same lol
Same youtube is just soooooo addictive
I did the same but almost a whole day. And sometimes stay up all night... if not youtube, fb, or play games
Same bruh you not alone
I spend 1:30 hours
I used to spend too much time on Facebook so I decided to delete the app from my phone and it helped me a lot. If I need to check something from time to time I just log in from my laptop for no longer than 15min.👍 And for Instagram I made a notification pop up on my screen whenever I reach 40min a day in the app and I stop using it.
One of the bad habits I have today is I spend hours and *hours* on youtube
I find it hard not to look or waste a lot of time on my phone when I am studying. But if I just put my phone in another room, then it becomes too much of an effort to go and get it. A small change with huge effects!
Wow I will use this technique to develop my skills in drawing
Thx
I have started putting my alarm inside my gym bag, which I place in the kitchen under the table. When the alarm goes off I’m forced to walk to the kitchen, get the bag from under the table, and open it. At that point I’m awake enough that I won’t go back to sleep and I’m already holding the gym bag so there’s no way I’m forgetting what I’m supposed to do. It works great!
Okay and how do I change my environment to get to bed earlier and wake up earlier and stop binge-watching UA-cam or Netflix for no proper reason?
I give myself positive rewards that don’t relate to my bad habit. Like I reward myself with a delicious breakfast and coffee if I wake up early. If I wake up late, I can’t have this reward but there’s no negative reinforcement. I could but I’m not sure what. I could treat myself with a mani/pedicure or a bubble bath on my rest day if I workout 6 days a week.
4:07 do you have a cue for re-racking your weights?
Remind me of 6 years ago i used to put a book in my bag, although i don't read it often but during waiting hour i will unconsciously take it out and read a few page. I think i should put it back in my bag from now on.
