Lately I have been struggling with procrastination and overthinking a lot. It has taken a toll on my studies and college and I just have to say thank you soo much! I wish you and anyone reading this all the best😊
Labeling this as a productivity video was low key a trick but the most helpful of tricks! 💛✨ Your videos are so well researched and I always get introduced to something new! Thanks for what you do
I was just talking to a friend about this the other morning. She was asking about apps to limit social media use and I was saying how I just find something else to procrastinate with cause we don’t address the underlying desire that leads us there in the first place. This is an amazing list of tools all in one place, thank you so much!!
I'm from West Bengal, India. A reason for not being able to work well can also be the weather. It's so freaking hot in here since forever. Only thing i feel throughout the day is discomfort, annoyance, anger, headache.... It's really not something that can be ignored or cured in some way... I mean sure if you have money you can buy AC. But that isn't possible for everyone. We don't have pretty cafes, nice libraries or anything in here.... Just waiting for the weather to get better abd getting my work piled up which is adding to the annoyance and anger
I feel this! I'm from a nordic country, so i can't relate to your situation much, but not working well when overheated is a universal experience i think! I spend all of the dark winters here wishing for the warmer months but as soon as its above 23 degrees my brain switches off completely. I've been trying to get up early so i can be active in the cool morning hours, but that's hard when its too hot to go to sleep in the evenings. I'm curious, what do you do to cool yourself down and increase your cognitive function? How do you cope with the heat? I hope you find a cool spot today!
Thank you! Even when I was new to the productivity community, I knew how big of a factor this was. No matter what techniques or self-management or whatever I have, those don't matter if I cannot handle/regulate my emotions. That's why stuff like depression is so awful! A person could have all the productivity tips in the world but as soon as an insurmountable wall of emotion comes up, those tips go out the window. It's not that they're lazy or have a bad work ethic, it's that their needs aren't met (emotional needs but also, as you said, basic survival needs that can contribute to feeling fractured or unsafe).
Love this! Tip No.2 for emotional regulation is used during EMDR treatment to process memories in a safer/less scary way. It is definitely a powerful way to remove the initial emotion from a situation, by playing it almost in third person (this could be a TV, Cinema screen or theatre stage... whichever resonates the most!).
I needed this video so much today, thank you for posting this! I've been really struggling with emotional deregulation and procrastination lately, so this video was really helpful even in just letting me know I'm not alone. Thanks again!
i actually haven't watched your videos in ages.. but have been around since you were ~100k subs or less? I just realized your content grew with you, and I'm finding it very useful to my life again. yay to growth, and thank you for your perspectives! very helpful once again in my life :p :D
I really do hope that helping people is one of your success markers because you are helping so many people with this video💛 you have no idea how much positive impact you have made in my life. thank you 😭💛
Such an underrated channel. Actually useful and well-researched content instead of regurgitating what every other article and video does, or being meandering and trendy stream-of-consciousness. Thank you for all that you do, may your channel continue to thrive!
Great video Michelle, a random thought I had when I was watching it was appreciating how great your B-Roll footage is to illustrate the points you're making! I'll definitely be implementing some of these ideas to help with my serial procrastination!
WOW. I just downloaded Intention because of how helpful this video was, and I feel like I struck gold! I want to gift subscriptions to my siblings! Amazing content, Michelle!!
Amazing advice! Quick thing about intention: i am not a subscriber because the music behind the meditations etc. makes me anxious. Please, add an option with something more neutral or no music! it's a very personal preference what kind of music fits.
Thanks for this video Michelle!! It’s just what I needed. I do struggle with MH and I overthink a lot which then affects my mood. Particularly a problem this week. I’ll need to watch this video a few times and try and take onboard your advice plus look into this topic of Emotional Regulation further.
I've been following yoibsonce 2018 and this is one of your best videos ever! Packed with applicable information. Looking forward to new courses on Intention :)
Michelle you are my favorite person on the internet. The way you curate and present your content amazes me every time. It always speaks to me in a way that is new, interesting, understandable and actionable. My issue is that when there are a lot of tipps but you cant think let alone act on all of them so they kind of just diappear? Like gems lost in the stream of scrolling. Could you do a video on how to consume personal development content in a way that will help you actually internalize and implement things one by one?
i think focus on building a single habit for 2-3 weeks. then once you're used to that change try implementing something new. you can't erase every bad habit and implement new ones from one day to the next.
Thanks for sharing this. I've learned many similar techniques myself, but it's nice to have them described in a different way and in different words. I might even want to re-watch this video and write down notes about the most important techniques :) And I will say to anyone reading this: Trust me, some of these techniques can really help change your life for the better. For example I've used the technique about observing my emotions to consume less sugar/soda/sweets and to excercise more, and also to waste less time on social media and the like. It can truely be life-changing to learn these techniques!
This is so incredibly helpful - love your videos Michelle! Are there any books you'd be able to recommend on emotional regulation, besides Claire Weekes's book? Thank you so much!
Really love your channel's compassionate approach to productivity! Would you be able to make a video about how to balance goals while still having an abundant social life? I want to participate in group activities and maintain friendships, but often find it difficult to balance these with personal errands & goals. Part of my issue is being an introvert and not a big morning person, lols
I love your content and even subscribed to the Intention app! 🤍 the only thing is your 'S' sounds are very harsh to listen to so I stopped using the app. I was wondering if you're at all able to reduce the sibilance in your audio in case it bothers other hypersensitive viewers as well. In any case, thanks for the great content!
Lately I have been struggling with procrastination and overthinking a lot. It has taken a toll on my studies and college and I just have to say thank you soo much! I wish you and anyone reading this all the best😊
I'm so glad that this helped. Sending you tons of good vibes 💛
wishing you the best too Katarina

Hahaha I get what you’re saying but I genuinely *do* think this is a major productivity ‘hack’ that is under discussed
Totally agree!

I realized that knowing yourself is for the purpose of heeding yourself, not controlling yourself
I had to stop watching videos from the productivity community because i was getting overwhelmed, now i stick with the basics and it works
I needed this video so much today, thank you for posting this! I've been really struggling with emotional deregulation and procrastination lately, so this video was really helpful even in just letting me know I'm not alone. Thanks again!
You are not alone! Feels good seeing a video on the subject. Just what I needed today
Ahh I'm glad it came to you at the right time! You're definitely not alone 💛 emotional regulation is work!
@@muchelleb Thank you, so many of your videos have helped me so much, I really appreciate it.
That exercise to focus on your surroundings will definitely help me a ton!

Thank you!!

the whole video was so personal for me! like I was on a videocall, you were talking directly to me! so helpful! thank you so much. 💮
Finally, someone talked about emotional regulation
I really do hope that helping people is one of your success markers because you are helping so many people with this video💛 you have no idea how much positive impact you have made in my life. thank you 😭💛
Thank you so much for this video. Your videos bring emotional clarity as well as physical productivity. You help with balancing life.
I appreciate you!!! 💛💛
I agree. This is the most underrated, unseen and barely talked about productivity tools ever. By far. And it IS the most important. Love this video.
Such an underrated channel. Actually useful and well-researched content instead of regurgitating what every other article and video does, or being meandering and trendy stream-of-consciousness. Thank you for all that you do, may your channel continue to thrive!

just got here from today's video. i somehow missed this post. ty for linking it
This is so me. Emotional regulation is my thing. I do it everyday. It’s one of my self care routine. It also makes me emotional intuitive. ❤
WOW. I just downloaded Intention because of how helpful this video was, and I feel like I struck gold! I want to gift subscriptions to my siblings! Amazing content, Michelle!!
Yess that makes me so happy!
this is amazing. I recently submitted an essay for a psychology and counselling class exactly about this! defusion is truly an important skill
I love that you use actual scientific sources to support your videos!
Amazing advice! Quick thing about intention: i am not a subscriber because the music behind the meditations etc. makes me anxious. Please, add an option with something more neutral or no music! it's a very personal preference what kind of music fits.
As usual really solid advice! Gonna put all of this in my self care kit :)
Thanks for this video Michelle!! It’s just what I needed. I do struggle with MH and I overthink a lot which then affects my mood. Particularly a problem this week.

One of the best, most thought provoking videos I've seen in a long time. Have loved your channel for years, you're amazing

best way? write it down and then go implement it right then and there.
i think focus on building a single habit for 2-3 weeks. then once you're used to that change try implementing something new. you can't erase every bad habit and implement new ones from one day to the next.
