ok here’s the truth: after I come home from work I eat and lay in my bed watching youtube till midnight. then I have to wake up at 7 o’clock in the morning and the first thing I do? I reach for my phone and check notifications. I don’t have facebook twitter or other apps just youtube. I can’t function. I can’t clean, work, go out. I think I’m depressed and this addiction is a way of coping with this shit. had to put it out there.
Same. I procastinate work a lot. If I even study 1/10th of using phone. I would be at the top of state rank. I want to end UA-cam recommend and only use it for listening to music and Knowledge
That's the same story people tell themselves about potato chips... the reality is you don't have just one or even one serving. Same way you don't just watch one video... most people binge and don't act on anything of that "learning."
I‘ve tried so many times to do a social media detox, but every time I came back it was as before. The sad thing is that I know that I‘ll regret this one day. But I still continue binge-watching? Well, until today. We all have so many dreams and goals, and we should be constanly working towards them. We should try new things and be active, because we only have one life. Only one, remember that. Let‘s live life🌻
I needed this sooooo much, so much of my time is wasted on watching dumb videos yet feeling that emptiness inside knowing that I am intelligent and my talent is being wasted on not doing my school work. I know what I am meant to be and yet I continue to stand in my own way, well no longer will I let procrastination stand in my way. I AM CAPABLE, I AM WORTHY, I AM GOING TO DO THIS! To think that I came across this video by sheer coincidence because of a mistake in voice texting, NO! God led me here for a reason and I will prove to myself that I can do it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! 😊❤
I watched UA-cam 10:44 hrs Today Yesterday 10:10 hrs Past week 57:35 hrs Average 8:13 hrs To honest i feel like i have learned a lot, but i have Zero action on anything in my life Nothing is working out for me at all. because I choose not to deal with reality but that stops today.
One of the best ten minutes of my life. These 10 minutes are going to push me to the extremes and devote myself to studying.I feel like I just got charged up.Thanks alot .You guys are life changing.
Its called investing time on youtube for motivational videos rather than wasting... always get additional boost in energy to carry on and in fact i will have my exam next week.. so this works extremely well for me. Thx a lot!!
It's more about stop procrastinating on UA-cam watching funny cat videos. UA-cam is an incredible educational platform, and if you're using it as such, then stay on UA-cam! :D
ProjectElon - Study Motivation I feel like this is part of my problem with it though, actually the internet in general, it does help me some of the time so I rationalise that I’m “learning” when I know deep down that I really should be working. It’s a complex issue
I started out watching UA-cam because all the conspiracies. aliens, and channels like Project Camelot, OOWK Media, Alex Jones, the list goes on and on and on, now I have over 500 subscribed channels, after 7 years digging in through the rabbit hole I pretty much have a masters degree on conspiracies lol. It has been one hell of a ride but time to move onto something new.
Twin Turbo i feel you brother, I have filled my head with so much useless information yet I am still a fuck up in the real world. The true knowledge is outside yt, let’s learn from the real world brother
@@santiinx737 There is valuable knowledge on UA-cam. You just need to avoid acquiring information of things that is useless. I saw that watching historical, conspiracy and political videos is just something that drains you away if not under control. Sometimes after I watch a documentary or a video I wonder if all this is for nothing and that the world is a messed up place.
UA-cam is like heroin to me. I just can't stop...but at least I use it for educational purposes like the sciences and of course Jordan Peterson. Study music is also an awesome addiction on UA-cam ;)
I left social media like facebook, and stopped talking on there and my poetry writing poetry level went to a new level. I am writing now remarkable work, according to the teacher in my current class. My brain now can process info fast and I can master work faster and immediately see where my poetry needs trimmed. Today I am creating a new schedule for achievement.l, and limiting myself to 15 min on UA-cam a day for my motivation coaching only. I only use youtube to listen to my two coaches, that have helped become successful
i have a life turning exam in a few days and here i am wasting hours and hours on youtube it initially started on the day when i woke p really late cause my alarm didnt ring and i stated to freak out because i had a lotta studies to do and then i was like i will probably just watch one video so that it calms my mind and i was off all i have done since the past one WEEK was watch videos on youtube i would get off it for a few minutes when my parents would scold me but immediately the next moment i am on it i swear i dont wanna do this i just really wanna study but the moment i turn off youtube and sit down to study my mind just feels depressed cause i realize i have done nothing but waste time and then to ward off that depression i start watching youtube again and this cycle just goes on until my entire day is wasted literally my entire day i wanna study and achieve my dreams but i am not able to do it i feel i am depressed i dont know what to do i dont want to tell my parents cause they will probably rip me and i dont know who i should talk to or share this with i feel i am just wasting my time which i dont want to its like my mind is not in my control i need help... please i dont wanna do this i dont wanna ruin my life please help me i feel like dying
Dude The solution is easy. The answer is discipline. Get up. Power off your phone. Study. Don’t let regret get in your way. You can’t bring the lost time back. But you can use this present time to your advantage. Seriously. There is no magic trick that will make you do your work. Stop watching self help videos(except for Jordan Peterson lol). Seriously. Go do your work. Set up a routine. Follow it. I think the person who has most helped me is Jordan Peterson. I highly recommend you watch his videos. Remember that regret is poison. Stop regretting stuff. You end up wasting even more time.
This is exactly my situation. To the very detail. I'm tearing up because it's worrying my life and my relations especially with my parents. I just feel sick. I feel so tired of not being mentally disciplined. When I tell myself 30minutes I go on for another 4 hours. I'm so tired of it. I HAVE to stop. So thank you for writing this comment. It's what helped me write this and I hope we all here get better.
Last New Years Eve I deleted my Facebook, tonight will be one entire year, and I don't even desire to have it back. This year, I want to delete instagram, and UA-cam. I want to figure out what gives me true enjoyment. Rewire my brain, for things that will actually benefit me with that reward of dopamine.
Honestly, How many of us avoid sneaking in to the UA-cam comments section and waste time reading or making some stupendously hilarious jokes? Now that's one of the biggest time killers.
This is so convicting, I definitely binge on UA-cam when low than taking action to get out of that low mood. I will keep fighting. Thank you for this video.
I'm going back to school on Friday. Thank goodness I came across this channel. Your channel has taught me to stop binge watching videos and GET. TO. WORK. Thank you so much for motivating me to work. Break away from summer vacation and work on what you want to become; I'm a sophomore in high school and I want to become an engineer. I will say it again, thank you.
Help me! My dissertation is due next week and I watched 8 hours of UA-cam yesterday 😭 still have 2000 words to write. I feel so guilty wasting my time. This needs to stop! I think I do it because I'm scared of writing. I hope this video helps me :)
I dont waste time on youtube ...i utilize my time watching ur vdeos and i think its vry gud to watch ur vdeos ...ur vdeos motivate me all the time...thumbs up👍👍
Shn byeb so what when this video finished you were done watching youtube for the day ?? i have to ask how did you find these videos?? not browsing youtube im sure cause you dont waste time on crap like youtube right??
I think one very big reason for wasting time on yt at these nosense videos u watch at 2am like Gordan Ramsey cant locate the lamb souce... is the comment section. Think about it.Next time u watch a yt video try not to look into the comment section. U will feel uncomfortable and its one of the biggest reasons for watching this nosense stuff I think. I think the reason for this is, that we want to satisfy our mind for social interaction. Example: Imagine you click on a random nosense yt video. U instantly scrollen into the comment section.(u habe to scrollen until the cotton cause yt wants to Show u the videos u should watch after this.). U want this feeling that for example everybody finds this video weird or emotional... and u feel misunderstood and ur brain thinks u internat with others. U like comments u like and when u weite a own one u fell very satisfied. Then u scroll the comments for satisfaction. This is also why for example Songs or just normal videos are going to be memes and stuff. Btw tue reason for watching this nosense and not "normal" ones is, cause the title is easy and u dont have to know mich about it. So u can instantly go into the comment section. If ur not scrolling into the comments u will realise that and u are wasting ur time with bullshit. Btw sorry cause of the many mistakes. I am german and my Keyboard has german autocorecture. Hope u can read it
I believe everything happens for a reason. I was wasting time watching cartoons on youtube yesterday instead of researching for my homework and I felt just horrible. SO Im going round with myself and I get back to studying and this is the first video on my page...coincidence? Never...the Universe? Always....
Tell yourself you can only watch “x” videos every day. Create a playlist for videos you think look interesting. After your limited number are used up, add any you didnt get the chance to watch to the playlist, and pickup from there later
I'm not sure about Facebook ads ever notice when I delete something on Facebook it can pop back say if with a wrong price it would lead to many unhappy customers I think UA-cam ads are a better investment .
I'm doing my last youtube whim after this I'm closing my youtube account because now even youtube censoring the news, and choosing videos based on their agendas, youtube google is in court for monopoly, and is best to find something else but youtube, facebook, instagram, snapchat, and twitter do not exist to me anymore.
There's a new ad bot on youtube it rides the red line and plays the on the line ad randomly before the ads were marked so that's annoying right there it's difficult to spot because 50 percent of the time it's red then a yellow dot so the ad free vids and ad vids can be difficult to spot but it will prob be easier as time goes on again adds maybe frequent or no little to no adds because the bot may or may not skip adds but that ad frequecy might be something the mods and the bot are in control of the timing are unknown values now instead of a fixed path as it was before .
I feel great that i am not the only one watching youtube for 4-8 hrs a day, and then after feeling guilty, and then... i will beat up myself for this.. and then this will repeat the next day ...
I find this hard to do as a content creator on UA-cam, I am supposed to focus on making videos but once I open up UA-cam I just automatically watch some recommended and waste like 30 mins in my editing process.
If use correctly you tube videos teach a lot of things and that knowledge can be used for your own betterment.not to mention saves a lot of hassle learning new things if YT are not around.just don't abuse it
Started watching youtube at 2x speed. Making my most important subscriber feed is cut down to less than 2 hours a day. I like a lot of youtube channels and stuff, but who's more important to listen to? What kind of content matters more?
OMG! I thought I was addicted watching 20 to 30 minutes of motivational coaching. You may need to get the app off your cell phone. I was hanging that much in Facebook but finally managed to stay away from 90% of the time and just go on quickly to promote my work.
Try to find yt sites with no adds you'll be saving time by not watching the add but I only think only 10 percent of them only have no adds then post the useful ones back on Facebook
My rule is no more than 30-45min on social media like twitter, Facebook and UA-cam combined per day. Personally, I don't use Instagram and do not keep facebook and messenger on my phone such that I only go on Facebook once every week or to check for messages if I have any. And for Twitter and UA-cam, that I use every day (mostly for school-related learning), I keep notifications off. I don't want notifications to make me go on Social media, I go there consciously and if there are massages or likes , I see it then.
Gotta be honest, I'm here cause my one week school break making me waste to much time, currently watching 5-12 hours of youtube each day. I say I'm going to read some books, train more, eat healtier, but then I just continue watching, and them I like oh shit I guees it's 3am, should probaly go sleep right. And then repeat...
i just realized i've been hooked on youtube for the last 15 years...i could have taken up a hobby this whole time..like learned guitar or something..i'm totally depressed now
don't beat yourself up. I waisted 4 years running around with a jerk, when I could of been mastering alot of my work and then for a year afterI started masting writing but still youtube held me back because whole bunch of writing techniques I had to learn, and now only being on 20 min mostly a day for coaching only, I have learned them.
I have 65 things for this month yt and fb are them too on noaa radio they say to be prepared for a week if the power gose out with supplies and other ways to heat the house .
I'm quitting the youtube. I have wasted my time enough already. I have wasted my life on stupid education system. Now, I'm nobody. And I'm quitting my job. I have wasted my life on the stupid profession I don't want to be. I don't enjoy my work. It's teaching job. It's stupid. I never been good at it. It's time for me to move on. Goodbye my teaching job and youtube. I rather die, than be hooked by the system. I don't want to be manipulated anymore. I'm saying no. I will find my own thing. I'm not listening to anyone anymore. Thanks, everyone. And good luck!
UA-cam in beginning are double ads of music vids but it dose have a way bigger libury of music but the ads are at random somtimes on ads the next ad 3 7 15 marks are common or the ad could be just at the end and some sites no ads on yt about 10 pecent Spotify app the ad hits every 3rd song but it injects 20 percent songs not on topic what your listing too .
I am going to quit UA-cam for 100 days (16th May), then I'll restrict myself to one hour a day. Will be using the Cold Turkey app for PC and Stay Focussed app for phone. Hopefully then I'll be able to control my UA-cam usage.
1st, video title has nothing to do with it's content. 2nd, I quit using social media coz of youtube. 3rd, I got motivated coz of youtube, including TedTalks and other good channels? 4th, I learned how to press 3 dots and click "not interested" option so that youtube doesn't show me such videos anymore. 5th, I learned lot about ADHD as I have one. 6th, I can share good videos to my friends, so that that they also get benefit.
There's two sections of people on the planet - one who works hard and smart and makes others focus on them. The other who wastes their valuable time and focuses on others and not on themselves. Think wisely which one you want to be.
I don’t get it, everyone says that if you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, don’t do it. But the things I don’t enjoy are the only things I have. If I stopped doing the things I hate, then I’ll have nothing. And doing nothing makes me feel even worse.
Yes I think you should. UA-cam is an incredible educational tool. I watch UA-cam every day - and not just because I make videos. But I also follow people that are more successful than me, people who's situation I want to be in in 10 years time, for example. The problem is, as much as it is an educational tool, it is also a procrastination tool. And far too many people, in my opinion, waste hours and hours watching funny cat videos which in the short term makes them happy, but in the long term, investing that time doing something more productive would make them happier in the long term.
I wouldn't say I'm a famous UA-camr but I appreciate it :D I try to reply to as many as I can because I genuinely appreciate everyone who takes time out of their day to write a comment.
This should motivate you to search for the subject in which you want to express yourself.The motivational videos on youtube can be good, it can do the job, but don't forget that it's there to get your ass to work.
No more Wastage of time on UA-cam......I will use it only for study purpose and this is promise to myself and I am going to unsubscribe all the channels.. And I will off the notifications for comments too..... Now Bye.....🙂 Date:23 March 2021 Life is going to change from Now...❤️
I was wasted my time on youtube 10 hours per day befor i wached this video so i lost my life i didn't action i think this video saved my lifetime thanks for make it so much
But UA-cam makes me happy. This video is motivation. It really is. But my life is perfect as it is now. I watch UA-cam everyday. Cause I don't really have friends and UA-cam is like my "friend". I have great grades. I have time to spend with my family. I don't need to change anything in my life. But I'm happy that UA-cam has recommend this to me. ^^
I failed for two years now in my medical school. That means I potentially wasted 160,000 Dollars of salary, at least. For what? for nothing. People should really think carefully about their priorities and how to spend their time.
I did try to stop using yt for 30 days but failed because I needed it for questions like how to redeem gift card codes on ps4 which is in the ps4 store not in the main page as is ps3 is I also learned that on yt if you delete a payed game you have to pay for it again unlike ps3 which stores it in the ps store yt spllitz said that . But when was not using yt for 20 days I found I was learning my other apps more Google and Bing on chormebook more still Ts tech talk he has best of both fb and yt if your stuck on Facebook problems he responses in day on average . I also learn on my on if I hold down on my Samsung galaxy cam pic it focuses and on Es file explorer I can share or delete in the corner tabs by holding it down with my finger , so what I'm saying is you learn stuff about your other apps by trail and error if it is not available on yt .
I tell everyone not to do anything until watching youtube on the subject. I even make "how to videos" and put them on youtube, so I will find them next time and not make the same mistakes. UA-cam is great for music and how-to, but on politics, the right-left polarizing stuff will make you sick.
No I disagree UA-cam is not a waste of time! I’m 16 years old and 99% of my knowledge comes from UA-cam. I watch loads of different types of videos on UA-cam but I learn something from all types yes some are for entertainment but I still learn things even if it is mostly for entertainment. I learned about geography and history. I learn how to solve math problems from UA-cam. I learned how to fix my computer from UA-cam. I also learned fluent English from UA-cam. So no UA-cam is not a waste of time!
It say on yt ads fb share your creativity but we all know fb randomly ghost things in it's alpha rythium unless you directly search that topic on profile only it's very slow also fb still randomly doing the age slider thing for yt vids even though my birthday on top as plain as day .
Sometimes I try to catch up on yt I just don't have the time to watch it all the time also other people may watch yt and I'm not interested in that subject so time wasted at there too it's possible .
It's weird yt on ps3 error version 3 point 03 on ps3 had to watch a UA-cam just to fix the problem . Got chromebook to work from blue screen of death had to unplug screen then plug it back in then the touch screen worked but password did not had to tap the reset icon in the corner to clear it , everything works fine .
i admit i am addicted to youtube and other social media but mostly youtube. my life is basicly simple, waking up, watching youtube or going for work, go home from work watching youtube. weekends even simpler. waking up, youtube, sleeping. thats overexatered ofcourse but instead of reading books or writing i tend to watch youtube videos. i am kind of in a reading slump because of youtube, i cant take it anymore. its sad because i loved to read, now i'm just watching youtube. i think i'ml going to change buyt like every addition its going to be hard and i can watch youtube or read something on internet if i need to research for my novel. otherwise i gonna cut back to an hour or two at the max.
Neta Bolt I have the same problem but it's not over exaggerated for me I spend 16 hours on UA-cam (weekends) and it's stopping me from doing schoolwork and things I like
What is wrong with learning? UA-cam is a tool and you do with what you please as well as the content you watch, UA-cam is the future of entertainment and people don’t understand the power of it. What is wrong with learning

I started out watching UA-cam because all the conspiracies. aliens, and channels like Project Camelot, OOWK Media, Alex Jones, the list goes on and on and on, now I have over 500 subscribed channels, after 7 years digging in through the rabbit hole I pretty much have a masters degree on conspiracies lol.

The solution is easy. The answer is discipline.
Get up. Power off your phone. Study. Don’t let regret get in your way. You can’t bring the lost time back. But you can use this present time to your advantage. Seriously. There is no magic trick that will make you do your work. Stop watching self help videos(except for Jordan Peterson lol). Seriously. Go do your work. Set up a routine. Follow it.

I was finally able to get my little brother (8 years old) to stop watching UA-cam so I just wanna say...
Thank you so so much 💖
Honestly,
How many of us avoid sneaking in to the UA-cam comments section and waste time reading or making some stupendously hilarious jokes?
Now that's one of the biggest time killers.
Yes it pisses me of that every bloody thing on the internet is a joke or a meme. The whole internet has become a reddit comment section.
This is so convicting, I definitely binge on UA-cam when low than taking action to get out of that low mood. I will keep fighting. Thank you for this video.
I'm going back to school on Friday. Thank goodness I came across this channel. Your channel has taught me to stop binge watching videos and GET. TO. WORK. Thank you so much for motivating me to work. Break away from summer vacation and work on what you want to become; I'm a sophomore in high school and I want to become an engineer. I will say it again, thank you.
I'm so glad it helped you Firbin! Good luck on Friday, hope you have a good day :)
Hey
Help me! My dissertation is due next week and I watched 8 hours of UA-cam yesterday 😭 still have 2000 words to write. I feel so guilty wasting my time. This needs to stop! I think I do it because I'm scared of writing. I hope this video helps me :)
I failed 2 yrs good luck to u!
@@harshshinde7469 Omg I actually did it! Managed to finish it on time and submit it! So happy!
@@galianbff well done!
How are you doing now? Spending least possible time on UA-cam?
you know it's an effective vid when you have to turn it off halfway to start getting shit done
Who is the first guy? He is SO much better than the other motivators in this video.
I dont waste time on youtube ...i utilize my time watching ur vdeos and i think its vry gud to watch ur vdeos ...ur vdeos motivate me all the time...thumbs up👍👍
I appreciate it Khan, thank you :)
ProjectElon but the title should've been a little different anyway nice video
gud
Shn byeb so what when this video finished you were done watching youtube for the day ?? i have to ask how did you find these videos?? not browsing youtube im sure cause you dont waste time on crap like youtube right??
Watching a UA-cam video on how you tube is a waste of time this has transcended genius
I keep wasting my time on UA-cam by making comments, reading replies and replying to comments
I think one very big reason for wasting time on yt at these nosense videos u watch at 2am like Gordan Ramsey cant locate the lamb souce... is the comment section. Think about it.Next time u watch a yt video try not to look into the comment section. U will feel uncomfortable and its one of the biggest reasons for watching this nosense stuff I think.
I think the reason for this is, that we want to satisfy our mind for social interaction.
Example:
Imagine you click on a random nosense yt video. U instantly scrollen into the comment section.(u habe to scrollen until the cotton cause yt wants to Show u the videos u should watch after this.).
U want this feeling that for example everybody finds this video weird or emotional... and u feel misunderstood and ur brain thinks u internat with others. U like comments u like and when u weite a own one u fell very satisfied. Then u scroll the comments for satisfaction. This is also why for example Songs or just normal videos are going to be memes and stuff.
Btw tue reason for watching this nosense and not "normal" ones is, cause the title is easy and u dont have to know mich about it. So u can instantly go into the comment section. If ur not scrolling into the comments u will realise that and u are wasting ur time with bullshit.
Btw sorry cause of the many mistakes. I am german and my Keyboard has german autocorecture. Hope u can read it
I waste a lot of time in my life
Feel ya Ruvik
Same here
My screen time was 13 hours yesterday. I know I need to change. It’s just hard.
I believe everything happens for a reason. I was wasting time watching cartoons on youtube yesterday instead of researching for my homework and I felt just horrible. SO Im going round with myself and I get back to studying and this is the first video on my page...coincidence? Never...the Universe? Always....
😍
Tell yourself you can only watch “x” videos every day. Create a playlist for videos you think look interesting. After your limited number are used up, add any you didnt get the chance to watch to the playlist, and pickup from there later
I'm not sure about Facebook ads ever notice when I delete something on Facebook it can pop back say if with a wrong price it would lead to many unhappy customers I think UA-cam ads are a better investment .
Just also see instant gratification and delayed gratification ,,it has giant imapct on my life
There's no such thing as wasting time. Life is short just take your time and enjoy life.
I'm doing my last youtube whim after this I'm closing my youtube account because now even youtube censoring the news, and choosing videos based on their agendas, youtube google is in court for monopoly, and is best to find something else but youtube, facebook, instagram, snapchat, and twitter do not exist to me anymore.
The time - lapse really makes me study
Thank God for guiding me 🙏
There's a new ad bot on youtube it rides the red line and plays the on the line ad randomly before the ads were marked so that's annoying right there it's difficult to spot because 50 percent of the time it's red then a yellow dot so the ad free vids and ad vids can be difficult to spot but it will prob be easier as time goes on again adds maybe frequent or no little to no adds because the bot may or may not skip adds but that ad frequecy might be something the mods and the bot are in control of the timing are unknown values now instead of a fixed path as it was before .
I feel great that i am not the only one watching youtube for 4-8 hrs a day, and then after feeling guilty, and then... i will beat up myself for this.. and then this will repeat the next day ...
same bruhhh
I think it depends on how you use youtube, I mostly use youtube for workouts, diys (and i am doing for real), and academics.
I find this hard to do as a content creator on UA-cam, I am supposed to focus on making videos but once I open up UA-cam I just automatically watch some recommended and waste like 30 mins in my editing process.
If use correctly you tube videos teach a lot of things and that knowledge can be used for your own betterment.not to mention saves a lot of hassle learning new things if YT are not around.just don't abuse it
Started watching youtube at 2x speed. Making my most important subscriber feed is cut down to less than 2 hours a day. I like a lot of youtube channels and stuff, but who's more important to listen to? What kind of content matters more?
The statistics scared me shitless. I shall leave UA-cam now.
I Don't understand what to do after watching this video.
Thank you for the reminder! 🧸😃
I wake up at 8.30 then I watch UA-cam for 12hr 😔 I just can't stop I'm kinda addicted
OMG! I thought I was addicted watching 20 to 30 minutes of motivational coaching. You may need to get the app off your cell phone. I was hanging that much in Facebook but finally managed to stay away from 90% of the time and just go on quickly to promote my work.
I keep wasting my time on UA-cam by making comments, reading replies and replying to comments
Thanks for sharing!
Try to find yt sites with no adds you'll be saving time by not watching the add but I only think only 10 percent of them only have no adds then post the useful ones back on Facebook
1:41 hahah i have to say that i love this guy
My rule is no more than 30-45min on social media like twitter, Facebook and UA-cam combined per day. Personally, I don't use Instagram and do not keep facebook and messenger on my phone such that I only go on Facebook once every week or to check for messages if I have any. And for Twitter and UA-cam, that I use every day (mostly for school-related learning), I keep notifications off. I don't want notifications to make me go on Social media, I go there consciously and if there are massages or likes , I see it then.
Gotta be honest, I'm here cause my one week school break making me waste to much time, currently watching 5-12 hours of youtube each day. I say I'm going to read some books, train more, eat healtier, but then I just continue watching, and them I like oh shit I guees it's 3am, should probaly go sleep right. And then repeat...
i just realized i've been hooked on youtube for the last 15 years...i could have taken up a hobby this whole time..like learned guitar or something..i'm totally depressed now
don't beat yourself up. I waisted 4 years running around with a jerk, when I could of been mastering alot of my work and then for a year afterI started masting writing but still youtube held me back because whole bunch of writing techniques I had to learn, and now only being on 20 min mostly a day for coaching only, I have learned them.
I will beat myself up
I have 65 things for this month yt and fb are them too on noaa radio they say to be prepared for a week if the power gose out with supplies and other ways to heat the house .
I'm quitting the youtube. I have wasted my time enough already. I have wasted my life on stupid education system. Now, I'm nobody. And I'm quitting my job. I have wasted my life on the stupid profession I don't want to be. I don't enjoy my work. It's teaching job. It's stupid. I never been good at it. It's time for me to move on. Goodbye my teaching job and youtube. I rather die, than be hooked by the system. I don't want to be manipulated anymore. I'm saying no. I will find my own thing. I'm not listening to anyone anymore. Thanks, everyone. And good luck!
How r you? Hope you found something interesting to pursue in life....
THANK YOU!!!
You're welcome Sasha
UA-cam in beginning are double ads of music vids but it dose have a way bigger libury of music but the ads are at random somtimes on ads the next ad 3 7 15 marks are common or the ad could be just at the end and some sites no ads on yt about 10 pecent Spotify app the ad hits every 3rd song but it injects 20 percent songs not on topic what your listing too .
0:20 this guy is good. he knows how I'm going to feel in 8 minutes and 2 seconds.
Ya..practical work is important
Thanks project elon now i will not waste time on you tube and tv. Best movation video for students
Thanks Mikky, glad you liked it :)
I am going to quit UA-cam for 100 days (16th May), then I'll restrict myself to one hour a day.
Will be using the Cold Turkey app for PC and Stay Focussed app for phone.
Hopefully then I'll be able to control my UA-cam usage.
1st, video title has nothing to do with it's content.
2nd, I quit using social media coz of youtube.
3rd, I got motivated coz of youtube, including TedTalks and other good channels?
4th, I learned how to press 3 dots and click "not interested" option so that youtube doesn't show me such videos anymore.
5th, I learned lot about ADHD as I have one.
6th, I can share good videos to my friends, so that that they also get benefit.
There's two sections of people on the planet - one who works hard and smart and makes others focus on them.
The other who wastes their valuable time and focuses on others and not on themselves.
Think wisely which one you want to be.
I focus on others
Im not going to drag myself out of it
I don’t get it, everyone says that if you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, don’t do it.
But the things I don’t enjoy are the only things I have. If I stopped doing the things I hate, then I’ll have nothing.
And doing nothing makes me feel even worse.
Should we also not watch youtube for videos which are informative for future and success in our life(like your channel).
Yes I think you should. UA-cam is an incredible educational tool. I watch UA-cam every day - and not just because I make videos. But I also follow people that are more successful than me, people who's situation I want to be in in 10 years time, for example. The problem is, as much as it is an educational tool, it is also a procrastination tool. And far too many people, in my opinion, waste hours and hours watching funny cat videos which in the short term makes them happy, but in the long term, investing that time doing something more productive would make them happier in the long term.
ProjectElon thanx for your reply, you are caring 'you replied', thank you so much. It happens to me rare that a famous youtuber reply to me.
I wouldn't say I'm a famous UA-camr but I appreciate it :D I try to reply to as many as I can because I genuinely appreciate everyone who takes time out of their day to write a comment.
You do cause if u want to learn most of anything. It's on UA-cam. Depends if your watching the NBA or videos on improving yourself
This should motivate you to search for the subject in which you want to express yourself.The motivational videos on youtube can be good, it can do the job, but don't forget that it's there to get your ass to work.
Maybe it's just me but I waste masses of hours daily and have absolutely zero regrets. Controversial !!!
Each video has best power of motivation . Keep doing .👍
No more Wastage of time on UA-cam......I will use it only for study purpose and this is promise to myself and I am going to unsubscribe all the channels..
And I will off the notifications for comments too.....
Now Bye.....🙂
Date:23 March 2021 Life is going to change from Now...❤️
I always watch your videos before doing my homework. That's the only reason it's done.
Why am I watching youtube videos about wasting time on youtube, on youtube? Doesn't that just waste more time in itself?
I was wasted my time on youtube 10 hours per day befor i wached this video so i lost my life i didn't action i think this video saved my lifetime thanks for make it so much
Wow, 10 hours a day on UA-cam?
But I'm glad you changed. Keep it up :)
Thanks for uploading this video.
But UA-cam makes me happy. This video is motivation. It really is. But my life is perfect as it is now. I watch UA-cam everyday. Cause I don't really have friends and UA-cam is like my "friend". I have great grades. I have time to spend with my family. I don't need to change anything in my life. But I'm happy that UA-cam has recommend this to me. ^^
I failed for two years now in my medical school. That means I potentially wasted 160,000 Dollars of salary, at least. For what? for nothing.
People should really think carefully about their priorities and how to spend their time.
Same here..wasted 2yrs mbbs
I did try to stop using yt for 30 days but failed because I needed it for questions like how to redeem gift card codes on ps4 which is in the ps4 store not in the main page as is ps3 is I also learned that on yt if you delete a payed game you have to pay for it again unlike ps3 which stores it in the ps store yt spllitz said that . But when was not using yt for 20 days I found I was learning my other apps more Google and Bing on chormebook more still Ts tech talk he has best of both fb and yt if your stuck on Facebook problems he responses in day on average . I also learn on my on if I hold down on my Samsung galaxy cam pic it focuses and on Es file explorer I can share or delete in the corner tabs by holding it down with my finger , so what I'm saying is you learn stuff about your other apps by trail and error if it is not available on yt .
With 10 minutes I saved my life
-this was suppose to prevent me from watching yt...yet it was posted here :')
UA-cam Is Not Bad UA-cam Is The Best!! 🤬🤬🤬
I tell everyone not to do anything until watching youtube on the subject. I even make "how to videos" and put them on youtube, so I will find them next time and not make the same mistakes. UA-cam is great for music and how-to, but on politics, the right-left polarizing stuff will make you sick.
the irony is we're watching this on youtube
MrSmackdab - 😂 haha, yeah!
Atleast he is warned us
Wonder where this was uploaded.
5:54 that’s the “study with me” vid!! I’ve seen that!!
Oops 😬
How did I end up here? Must be next on my to do list🙋
am I the only one who will watch this and still watch UA-cam instead of studying
😁
I liked his comment, speak your truth bro! I am in same place at the mo but I’ve almost (but not quite) had enough of it
Don’t worry you can do it
No I disagree UA-cam is not a waste of time! I’m 16 years old and 99% of my knowledge comes from UA-cam. I watch loads of different types of videos on UA-cam but I learn something from all types yes some are for entertainment but I still learn things even if it is mostly for entertainment. I learned about geography and history. I learn how to solve math problems from UA-cam. I learned how to fix my computer from UA-cam. I also learned fluent English from UA-cam. So no UA-cam is not a waste of time!
It say on yt ads fb share your creativity but we all know fb randomly ghost things in it's alpha rythium unless you directly search that topic on profile only it's very slow also fb still randomly doing the age slider thing for yt vids even though my birthday on top as plain as day .
On ruku tv on yt got some weird text message saying We re not doing that when click back 3 times on botom of screen made some ruku dinging sounds too
Sometimes I try to catch up on yt I just don't have the time to watch it all the time also other people may watch yt and I'm not interested in that subject so time wasted at there too it's possible .
It's weird yt on ps3 error version 3 point 03 on ps3 had to watch a UA-cam just to fix the problem . Got chromebook to work from blue screen of death had to unplug screen then plug it back in then the touch screen worked but password did not had to tap the reset icon in the corner to clear it , everything works fine .
Thanks. See you youtube only when I will truly need you.
i admit i am addicted to youtube and other social media but mostly youtube. my life is basicly simple, waking up, watching youtube or going for work, go home from work watching youtube. weekends even simpler. waking up, youtube, sleeping.
thats overexatered ofcourse but instead of reading books or writing i tend to watch youtube videos. i am kind of in a reading slump because of youtube, i cant take it anymore. its sad because i loved to read, now i'm just watching youtube.
i think i'ml going to change buyt like every addition its going to be hard and i can watch youtube or read something on internet if i need to research for my novel. otherwise i gonna cut back to an hour or two at the max.
Neta Bolt I have the same problem but it's not over exaggerated for me I spend 16 hours on UA-cam (weekends) and it's stopping me from doing schoolwork and things I like
What is wrong with learning? UA-cam is a tool and you do with what you please as well as the content you watch, UA-cam is the future of entertainment and people don’t understand the power of it. What is wrong with learning
It depends what you're watching on UA-cam. Cat videos? Maybe not that educational. Jordan Peterson videos? More educational.
Discipline and practice...
