I became a night owl and tracked my productivity
Are night owls more productive? I'm going to find out. All my life I've been told that if you're disciplined and productive you wake up early. If you're lazy and undisciplined you stay up late. The only problem, I've never tested to see if this is true. So finally, I'm making the switch from morning person to night person. The question is, does it improve my physical energy, mental clarity, and productivity? Or will it ruin my next week?
I first started considering this idea from the Huberman Lab podcast, where Andrew Huberman interviewed Mathew Walker, a renowned sleep scientist. Sleep is so important, that I'm spending the next while trying extreme schedules to see what boosts my productivity, creativity, and mental clarity the most. Sleep is one of the main pillars of health, and often the main reason our energy and productivity are so low.

Thanks for stopping by my channel where we focus our energy on self-improvement, productivity, and making the best possible versions of ourselves. Obviously, this is not attainable, which is kind of the point. Never stop growing and improving. Most of what we cover are personal lessons that I have learned, as I don't have the authority to speak for others, but just my personal experiences.

How I stopped mindlessly checking my phone
zhlédnutí 3,9KPřed 3 měsíci
Here's how I broke my phone addiction in 3 simple steps. And the best part is willpower isn't the answer. Most of us would like to use our phones in a more productive way instead of an impulsive way. In this video, we cover three exercises (some a bit unconventional) that have shaped my life in the past few years. These exercises have allowed me to stop checking my phone, but without needing to...
How changing my environment fixed my procrastination
zhlédnutí 2,6KPřed 3 měsíci
Take a second to notice your environment and ask yourself "How does this specific environment affect me?" We often don't think about our environment unless we enter an unfamiliar one, but it is a powerful force constantly shape-shifting us. Why do we act so differently at work than with our friends? Or with our family compared to alone? The answer is our environment is different, and we change ...

7 steps to never achieve your goals

Many times we do not need to learn what to do. Rather, we must learn what to stop doing. This video talks about what we must stop doing if we want to achieve our goals. If you find yourself doing some of these, that's good. It's time to evaluate if it's truly helping you or not. If not, work on eliminating that this year. It's amazing how far we can go simply by removing what is harming us. 1-m...

    I am apparently the spoilt child and the favourite. 😂 In my family if Dad said you where his favourite it didn't mean that you were the most loved. It meant you'd won lotto 😂 which meant he wasn't happy with you. Here is the thing my older siblings moved out and it left my parents with more money so they could afford a colour tv for the lounge room. Whoopy doopy 😂 I wasn't allowed to watch it. They didn't buy it for me.

      @@AustinSchrock Could you please provide a video about "One Day in Your Life"? Some people, including myself, struggle to get their work done and often blame it on their sleep. I sleep 7-9 hours a night, but I feel like I would have more time to complete my tasks if I slept only 3-4 hours. It would be very helpful if you could show us how you manage your time throughout the day and what a typical day in your life looks like. Thank you!

    We feed our bodies with trash wich takes away our energy. We take coffee to give us that energy, but we need more and more until coffee just makes us feel normal with highs and lows and for some people with the added anxiety. That anxiety made me smoke more because that calmed me down... boy that is a vicious cycle. I just quit smoking and caffeine and I feel so much better. I added legumes to my everyday diet and I feel so much better with the added Fibre. God bless you all. Time to wake up and stop using sugar, caffeine and other drugs

    I think the worst part of being the youngest sibling is, that we are being held back. At least in my experience (youngest of 5) i was always kept back by my parents. In their eyes (or at least my mother thought that) I was the child, who should have stayed the longest. I was their "baby".. I struggled really long with growing up, because I was told, that I shouldn't. I was told, and in fact internalized, that I am supposed to stay young and dependent. And all the people on the internet told me, that I had it easy, because my parents didn't expect me to grow up and be responsible at a young age (something oldest siblings struggle with apparently). Or that I was always allowed everything, because my parents treat me best.. Its hard.
