If you could add one rule to this list what would it be? 🤔
50lb of bacon a day 😳🥵
Done is better than perfect. Comparable with microhabits.
pray to the rock every day
Take a deep breath before answering difficult questions ☺️
I will definitely take in all the rules and work on it, do laugh at myself a lot, it is hilarious 😅 I will take all in consideration 100%, thank you for the awesome videos
The one rule I’d add: Treat yourself like you‘d treat a friend - more positive affirmations and less negative self talk 😉 I love the idea of the 3 year rule🙏
yes!!!
I don't treat my friends tbh
This is a rule in Jordan Peterson’s 12 rules of life
This is awesome!!!! Tysm
Especially when it comes to health and visiting the doctor
Here is a rule: leave every situation or environment better than you found it. Whether that's really listening to someone, being a courteous driver, or picking up a piece of litter.
Edit: I am a bit blown away with the number of people this post resonated with.
100%
My fella uses this whenever he borrows something. He returns it in better condition than it was when he borrowed it. This is his way of being respectful and giving thanks. Great habit.
This hit me. Thank you 👌🏻
Nah
Love this!

The 4:19 of "never use two words when one will do" gave me major Kevin from the office "Why waste time say lot word, when few word do trick?" vibes 😂
Thanks
Hero?? Is that you??
aka common sense
One rule I think it's most important for mental health is - don't think that you're late to achieve something. Media is full of very young people who achieved a lot already, and it's very easy to start comparing yourself and thinking that you're too old for achieving anything. But that's so wrong, if you're a college student and lose 2-3 years because of certain life circumstances, that's OK, just move on, in the grand scheme of life those 3 years will turn out to be irrelevant, what is important is that you keep working on what you believe is best for you. That also applies to situations when people realise that they are in the wrong place at, for example 35 or 40 years of age. If you feel you found something new you're very passionate about, don't talk yourself out of it just because you're not in your early 20's anymore. It's never too late.
That one is so important. I always catch myself with those thoughts and i am only 24 years old!! Its as simple as this old saying goes: Better late than never.
Youre 64 years old and you realize you want to start your own business? Do it! Better late than never!
This is so true! I was supposed to graduate January 2021 but here I am at 28, still fighting a severe depression and being on sick since I got diagnosed. I can't wait until I can move on from this!
Totally agree!
Thank you
Im 26 and i have passion is music but recently that passion dies down bcuz my self is telling me theres no chance for me anymore.
Rule 11: Allow yourself - and others - the permission to change. Change your mind. Change your beliefs. Change your assumptions. Change your health. Even change your rules :-)
Super important and I feel like underrated. I hate when people are shocked or dissappointed you changed your mind, but you might have learned new information on the topic or just changed innerly, which is also not a negative thing at all. Other people even tell you that they like you as you are, so you should not ever change. Not changing feels very limiting to me. Not changing is synonimous with not learning.
“The Only Constant in Life is Change.” - Heraclitus
and Change leads to Growth
Love this one, I never understood why ppl would hold it against someone for changing their opinions. I am always adapting to new info and changing opinions all the time!
@@CristinaAllegra Thank you for sharing this. Definitely needed to hear it today!
One rule that I have, which maybe isn't quite a rule as much as a mindset, is to romanticize life as much as you can, especially the little things. As someone who struggles a lot with fluctuating depression, often times the only way that I am ever able to get out of a depressive episode is to start romanticizing little things. If you can't live for the big things, like family, friends, etc, then live for the little things. Everyday, the things I look forward to the most are drinking tea, taking a walk in nature, cuddling my dog, looking at the trees in the wind, looking at art, listening to music, eating a yummy meal, sitting down to read a book, etc. It's these things that truly make life enjoyable, so don't forget to immerse yourself in them whenever you can!
Also, this is especially helpful when I have to do something that I don't particularly want to do, such as housework or an assignment. My little trick to get me through it is to pretend that I'm in a Studio Ghibli movie montage of someone cleaning their house or working. I'll play soft music in the background as though it were the movie soundtrack, and it really helps. It helps me feel as though these boring/unpleasant activities are being romanticized, and a bit less unpleasant.
amazingg
Love that!
Girl you just gave me the best idea ever. I love Studio Ghibli Movies actually my safe place is Spirited away, literally is probably the movie I have watched more in my entire life but I never thought in thinking in me as a character in a scene when I don't want to do something. Oh you're amazing thank you so much 🤩✨
@@luzandreafloresr.4189 I'm so glad my silly little trick is helpful to you! I hope you find it useful :)
I ended up listing down about 23 rules, 10 from the video and 11 from the comments and 2 of my own.
Here they are if you are interested:
11. Romanticize your life as much as possible
12. Don’t think you’re late to achieve something
13. Be kind (to yourself, to others), be smart (educated, informed, have common sense), be strong (physically, emotionally, mentally)
14. Always discover new music
15. Try to be as honest as you can
16. Pour into yourself first
17. Date yourself
18. Allow yourself to be bad at certain things
19. Cut out toxic people immediately
20. Show gratitude
21. Celebrate small steps properly
22. It’s easier the second time around
23. You’re not the first person in this situation and you won’t be the last
Very useful. Thanks 😊
Looks like you've turned a '10 rules' video into a '23 rules' manifesto! Who knows, maybe you'll end up writing a book on '101 rules that changed my life' next!
I have three life rules for myself: be kind (to others and yourself), be smart (educated, informed, and common sense), and be strong (mentally, physically, emotionally). I have never come across a circumstance where these three rules don't apply and generally give a positive outcome.
I love that!
This is honestly great
My favourite mindset quote to live by is 'it's a bad day, not a bad life' and it reassures me when I become overwhelmed
Love this one!
My rule: try to be as honest as you can, with people but also with yourself. If you lie, you make things complicated. If someone asks you a question, ask yourself first before you answer.
Jenny, I agree with you. Honesty should be at the top of the Rules. However, These days It is difficult to be completely honest. Why? Being honest means, telling people about their narcissism, passive aggression, grandiosity, Rationality and so on. You may approach as a compassionate friend with the intention of truly wanting to help, but It comes right back at your face. I think these days, its best to learn the rules of human nature, in order to decode what is going on behind the mask and avoid ending up hurting ourselves or others.
I truly hope and imagine a future where we can actually be honest with one another without first trying to use the truth the hurt the other and secondly a positive response from the receiver of the truth. But according to history, we have been as such for hundreds of years. It's all engraved in our DNA.
Yes!!!! Honesty seems to be so rare these days.
OMG! Are you that famous singer🤩
Summary
1) it's better to be an hour early to be a minute late
2) move before you motivated
3) if it won't matter in 5 years, dont spend more than 5 min worrying about it
4) never go to bed angry
5) never use two words when one will do
6) learn to laugh at yourself
7) give yourself 3 years to reach big goals
8) you are responsible for everything
9) never skip a workout two days in a row (actually for every habit)
10) assume the best in people
I have some :
1. Text as if someone is spying on your chats. This way I never text anything harmful. Even if I had to say something strong I say it in a way which is not demeaning. Keeps things professional too.
One of my rule is small things counts. If you neglect things because of how small or insignificant it is you are leaving a hole in a big picture. So try not to neglect things coz sometimes small things matter the most. 😊
“Small things count” - try telling my girlfriend that
@@SamMartinPeakPerformance I guess you should try telling your girlfriend that because you're the person who knows your girlfriend
“How you do one thing is how you do everything” this quote helped me to form the habit of being present in every thing I do. Anything from working to relaxing, I make sure that I’m fully immersed in the task.
☝🏻☝🏻
The rule I'd add:
Do the things that your future self will thank you for.
My Rule: Tell people when they do something that changes your life for the better, even if it's small. You have no idea how much letting someone know that may mean to them.
You just did and made me smile! Have a great day 🍀
There are no shoulds, only coulds! Whenever I find myself feeling like I ‘should’ be doing something I remind myself that shoulds don’t really exist. Instead there is a long list of coulds to choose from. Just because someone else would choose one option, doesn’t mean I ‘should’ choose that option too. Life changing!
Another one: Make learning a priority. In good situations and bad situations if you learn something it’s usually a success.
But like Dwight said, not everything is a lesson… sometimes you just fail. That’s important to remember too especially if you’re too hard on yourself.
Ooh I love this.
GREAT VIDEO !! I would add something that changed my life : being interested in how my body works and learning about natural medicine so I can get rid of hard medication at 100% unless something urgent happens (because it can save life of course). Eating healthy, learning about food, natural foods, etc... Game changer for a good health and a good mind !
Great tips! One thing hubby & I tried that doesn't work for us during out 29+ yr marriage is the "never go to bed angry" thing. Our hottest, most destructive fights are in the middle of the night when we are both tired and sensitive. If we find ourselves going in circles or escalating to an unreasonable level, we take a pause and sleep on it. After sleeping and stepping back, the perspective is so much more productive and reasonable. It doesn't work for everyone, but it does for us. Our tempers are too hot and we are both too stubborn I guess.
Same
I can verify the truth of this statement. Was about to write the same thing, truth be told. My husband has a hot temper, and I'm the sort that "borrows" other people's emotions. So we are definitely better off parking the argument, and then addressing it later, when it can be a discussion, not a fight.
I think the folks that can hold to "don't go bed angry" don't have hot tempers. Hot tempers need time to cool off before they can be in a place to settle an argument.
Same here, and I get cranky when I’m tired or sleepy 😂 thanks for mentioning this
This is one I love for both singles and couples! The 2x2x2 rule. Every 2 weeks go on a date. Every 2 months get away for a weekend. Every 2 years take a vacation. I included singles because I think it’s important to date yourself. You can go with a friend or travel solo!
Rule number 11: Allow yourself time and space to feel your feelings.
My productivity has increased gradually along the years watching your videos man . Started my second year of college and i graduated last month. These videos are great ☺️
I have a rule idea: Celebrate your small steps. I find difficult to appreciate the importance of common, everyday tasks towards my goals, so "forcing" me to say "HECK YEAH!" when I do them has improved my motivation, and therefore, my likelihood of keep doing them.
I was about to be real mad at you with the "it's really not that difficult to show up on time". I have ADHD. and one of the ways my ADHD manifests is being HORRIBLE at estimating how much time something is going to take. But that solution of 'double the amount of time you think it will take' is actually something that might be helpful for me. The other thing I have started learning is to start timing how long it takes me to do something so I can actually have a realistic idea... so if I combine that with your tip of doubling time I definitely would be better at getting places on time even if I get off track (which is the other reason I often end up late. I realize oh shoot I forgot to do xyz and next thing I know I've forgotten I was supposed to be leaving and shoot that was 5 minutes ago I was supposed to leave...). Appreciate the idea. Will have to track how using that helps me get places on time!
Whew same here lol. "doubling the time" is worth a shot
I started watching Married at first sight Australia during lockdown and now I'm hooked 😅
When I started to go to my gym, I was struggling with being almost the only woman and I would get shy, lowering my performances. I decided to apply a new rule to my sessions : NEVER leave the gym without a progress. I would do the extra rep, run 1 more minute, stretch in a different way, use a new machine, etc. Thanks to that rule, I care less about others and more about myself. Physical and mental improvement !!
That's great rule! I'll use that, thank you.
That's a powerful one, thanks for sharing!
The one that made a difference to me and is still making a difference I heard on the channel struthless. If it takes less than 2 mins do it immediately. It helps me daily with procrastinating the small stuff, which always then pile up and becomes a bigger problem.
That's how you want to approach your habits as well. You want to create a routine for your habit that takes less than 2 minutes to get started, after that you're technically done for the day if you want to. The idea is that once you get started you'll keep going anyway, but making it easy to get started is how you actually get into a habit.
I feel like a rule I go by is “Assume ignorance instead of malice” which is similar to decentering your own personal feelings in every situation. Sometimes I find that I assume people do things to me on purpose and let the victim mindset influence the rest of my day. Following this rule, I find it a bit easier to not take so many things personally with this rule. A friend forgot to text me back for days and days? “Yeah that sucks but they probably didn’t realize. They don’t hate you, they’re just human” and then I text them :) they usually respond in minutes. Small example but I find it helpful.
(Not to say that you should tolerate abuse or anything extreme but sometimes I’m just a touch too sensitive 😅😅)
I often take a long time to reply and most of the time it's because I suck at texting, not because of how much I like or dislike the other person
This Video just saved a relationship of mine which was about to explode. Thank you so much 😊
Even though squarespace sponsored a lot of Matt's videos...Each sponsor segments gets more and more creative without boring us with same repetitive sentences 😅... MATT is a True creative professional hands down 😅💯
I feel there’s a million rules a person could follow to get ahead. Videos like this are great but they used to feel a little overwhelming. However, I’m now seeing as I learn more that it’s more based on selecting the rules that work with you and building your own character.
I have always been fascinated by investing, but without adequate knowledge on the right thing to do, I find it difficult to start. *I politely ask, what’s the best sector to invest in?*
It is entirely possible for a smart and patient investor to go into investing with the right information. One of the best ways to get started is to get help from an experienced Financial Consultant . I've been investing since *2015* and I'm extremely happy with the returns I get working with my investment advisor; * Hamilton Phoebe Zoe*
@@johnpoter9007 I am very interested in this information and I've some money sitting idly in the bank with that I can start investing without further delaying, If you don't mind How can I get in touch with your professional?
@@rudriguezbauer7520 As to get more details about my Investment Professional; *Hamilton Phoebe Zoe* easily do quick internet research where you can easily write her from, do your research with her full names mentioned.
@@johnpoter9007 I'm delighted to engage in this opportunity, I just found the professional's web page and have already written to her 👍
I'm glad I stumbled upon this. My wife and I works with Phoebe. Before now, we spent more and saved less. Phoebe changed that mindset and gave us a way to generate money investing in the financial market. Working with Phoebe, opened our eyes to a lot of investment opportunities, which in turn, helped us become less dependent of our earned income.
Having the mindset of taking a 100% of responsibility for my actions and my outcomes was a life changing rule for me too. It's very empowering.
I would add: consider yourself as your main competitor. Do not compare yourself to others.
Broo, I think is the best advices and rules and not advices to encourage toxic productivity or hustle culture! Definitely writing this down.
"being angry at someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer."
These are some rules I try to stick up to:
1. to live in the moment, taking day by day; having goals but not worrying too much about the future... and never think resentfully about the past
2. be comprehensive, forgiving and calm with everyone around me (always having boundaries for myself tho)
3. trying not to be angry by things I simply cannot control, because it's a waste of my time and energy
4. go outside every single day, for a walk or a run
5. feed myself with good and nutritious food
6. love the people around me and letting love in - this is what i live for
amazing video, as always. keep up with the good work!!
Great list, love the first one - life is so much easier if you are present!
As someone running a household of four: when you are done with something put it right away straight away. Don’t put it half way away, don’t wait, put it away where it lives now. I don’t manage it all the time but it really helps!
I'm so big on the 'be an hour early, not a minute late' rule, I think being punctual is sooo important professionally and personally, although I really love and need to apply the 'seeing the best in people' rule. We have all had experiences that may cause trust issues or anxiety to arise, however we forget that not everyone is going to be the same :)
I hate feeling even the possibility of being late. In the off chance I am late, it takes me hours to feel at ease again. Like, I will still feel panicked and rushed even though it is no longer an issue for the circumstances.
It took my wife years to understand this about me and why I need to be early to places.
08:45 my "workout" is actually studying and applying this rule to not skip studying 2 days in a row made me very productive.
Awesome. As a writer/research/nursing professor, I'm obsessed with good writing and a common remark when grading students' papers is, "EDIT, EDIT, EDIT." Finally, I find that putting off writing my manuscripts is so easy to do. Just start moving (e.g., writing), leads to motivation (in my writing) is something I will remember. Finally, the work-out rule rings true. I always say, I'm too tired after a long hard day at work and "reward" myself (quite the antithesis) by not working, and then feel guilty the next day.
I definitely need to remind myself of these! The one I’d add is if it takes less than 5 minutes to do I do it now. I have more time after work to relax & spend time outside by doing little things during the day. It adds up & I am less stressed.
Wow this video is so good Matt! Many of these rules are exactly what I need to hear right now. And also the film making is en point as always, thank you for your work!
One of my biggest rules to communicate when someone has made a big impact on my life. Speaking of, every time I feel overwhelmed or hopeless, I turn to Matt's videos. Give everything going on in the world and US politics in particular, I've really felt depressed. This video reminded me to take on what I can and I still have autonomy over my own life. It's nice to feel an ounce more hopeful. Thanks, Matt.
The one rule I’d add is “if it takes less than a minute just do it” I apply this to all sorts of things from wash a couple of pots straight away to respond to a question at work. I don’t add it to the ever expanding to do list, I just try to do it and get it done
☝🏻☝🏻
Good one, that way your to-do list doesn't get out of control
i would chane that to 5 minutes, bcs a minute i generally too short to get much done
Off of the "will it matter in five years?" rule to reduce worry: will I be okay for the next five minutes?
Usually, if I get bad news or something doesn't go well, I feel like things are collapsing in on me and that the rest of my life is changed forever in a devestating way and I will never be happy again. I know it's melodramatic, but it's the first instinct I've always had to it. I ask myself, "Despite what's happening, will I be okay for the next five minutes?" And 100% of the time, the answer is yes. And if I'm okay for the next five minutes, then I'll likely be okay for the five minutes after that, and so on.
Unless it's a relative/friend hospitalized. Exception to every rule
The biggest rule that has helped me and others whenever we feel we have lost our purpose, remember our grander purpose is always to help each other. We all have gifts, talents and energy to share to help others love a better life.
☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻_
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR WORK MATT, YOU ARE THE BEST!
"If it won't matter in 5 years, don't spend more than 5 min worrying about it." is what I always tell my friends and myself when I go crazy worrying about sth!
This one is difficult - my mortgage rates are about to go sky high - Im worried sick -it may not be important in 5 years but it is now.
What impresses me the most about this video is the depth of your own stock library and how well you use it.
The one thing I'd add is less of a rule and more of a reminder: It's always easier the second time around - This helps me tackle big projects or re-record a video if it wasn't good enough
I am currently binging all your videos, I miss watching it😎
Love from UK and I am excited for this video 🙌💯
One of my rule is to allow yourself to be bad at certain things. You don't have to achieve perfection every time at every thing, it limits the idea of even trying to improve. By allowing myself to be bad at certain things, I give myself space. As a perfectionist myself, this helped me a lot to start a new task or goal, as I don't try to do it perfectly but just enough.
☝🏻☝🏻
Thank you Matt for always being insightful!
My mindset has drastically changed for the better because of your videos:)
Hi Matt! I love every video you upload, but this one is my favorite that you've uploaded in a while. It's going to be so helpful to so many people. Thank you.
Agreed!
Thank you. Such a great list.
You are the best Matt, you can't even imagine how much your videos have helped me!
Thank You Matt 🙌
Over the years of reading self help books and listening to high level performers I have adopted many rules you mentioned. I am not perfect and I will have to adopt the don't miss a habit 2 days in a row, this will be a big one for me as I tend to beat myself up when I lose a "streak"
I do agree with the "assume the best in people" rule.
I've been around my friends, parents, or even my fiancee when they make a snap negative judgement out loud and I've literally said to them things along the lines of "what if that person just lost their job. What if they just found out their grandma died. What if that person just went through a break up"
You truly don't know. I'll give people a free pass and the benefit of the doubt more often than not. Even in working customer service jobs in the past I've done this and have received several apologies from people who then tell me their real story. Classic honey vs vinegar. Just be the best person you can be, if others still suck, at least you know it's not because of you
Thanks, great video. I would add, always look for ways to encourage people. Telling people they are awesome or how that are good at something cheers you both up. It's a win/win. Thanks again. Keep up the good work.
Love this video!!! Will definitely watch it again!
Powerful video! I already apply many of these rules to my life, but it's good to be reminded of them.
I love these. thank you Matt!!
I've recently recovered from being sick, and during that time I had to stop doing as much as I was doing before. A week ago I was ready to get back to my habits, but instead I found myself tending to chaos and procrastination, so reminding the importance of having a set of rules in my life made me realise that I should bring them back. Thank you Matt!
I completely understand! Feeling the same way after spending 7 weeks in a hospital and having heart surgery. Just give yourself time. 🙂
I'm a fan! Just stumbled upon your channel a few days ago and love your videos - crisp, clear, inspiring...I could go on. I think your going to change my life for the better! Thanks! Keep doing what you are...
Hes truly an inspiration, hes the reason I started making my own videos! It would mean a ton if you could give me some feedback on mine.
Appreciate Matt telling me exactly how much to fast forward during the add break
“Technically your subconscious cheated on yourself”
That’s gold!
Absolutely love the 8-Mile reference. Such a strong point about learning to embrace our flaws.
Asuming the best in people is one of the rules that has improved my happiness the most. Once you stop taking things personnaly, or misinterpreting, and belive in the good side of people, life gets so much easier and you become such a positive person.
These were great Matt! I've had a break from youtube recently and am happy to come back and watch such a great video :) been a long-time follower, your growth (in all sense of the word) has been brill to watch!
Great video! Love you and Nat!!!
another value packed video Matt! Thanks so much for sharing these, I've become so much more productive and learned so many better habits from your videos. I love that we are responsible for everything. We make decisions everyday based on our values, and it's up to our actions right now in the present that determine our future! keep up the awesome work, much support :)
How is this man always on top of the game when it comes to his yt videos? It's always a pleasure to watch your videos Matt, thank you
Amazing, thanks MAtt!
This video help a lot if you are an overthinker, thank you Matt :3
I love it Matt!!
The 2 day rule is genuinely life changing it and if you stick to it for long enough then it really allows you to see the profound affect of compounding.
This video clarified so much things to me. It was like a short podcast and I watched it between exercises during my workout, I appreciate that
Hes truly an inspiration! Hes the reason I started making my own videos! It would mean a ton if you could give me some feedback on mine.
Inspirational as so often! :) I would add three: 1) Trust your gut 2) walk your tempo 3) be kind+respectful - to yourself and others 💜
Awesome content ❤ I will put these rules into action. Thanks Matt
I’m gracefull that I came across ur channel, subed!
Yet another brilliant video filled with value from one of the biggest inspirations behind my recent decision to start a CZcams channel. Thanks Matt!
Thanks a lot Matt!
The two-day rule is a real game changer and absolutely right. If I take two days off in a row, it's easier for me to excuse a third and fourth day as well.Or a week.... or a month....
…or a lifetime
Great list.
Happy to see I'm already on the same page on a lot of these.
That was really helpful, thank you.
One of the best rules I have learned so far:
Only ask people for advice who are already where you want to be!
Or, as Naval says: "If you want to make the wrong decision, ask everyone!" We all to often ask for advice and receive advice from people who have never done what we want to do and who don't have any clue about the topic.
Wonderful content, We just need this kind of reminders to develop ourselves and maintain that momentum in our daily life !. Thanks Matt 🙌🏻!!
thank you for this new video :) love it! love from Switzerland
Great, Matt! Thanks. Another rule I have is “You are not the first person to be in this situation & you won’t be the last.” It gives one a sense of perspective.
this content is always so relevant and useful, thank you for your advice and wisdom 💯
Very thought provoking. Two rules I have are to have lights out at 9pm, I love early mornings. I also weigh myself each day. Then I quickly know if I’m on course, or if I need to lighten up u til I am back at my goal weight. Very helpful for me
Great video. This channel is so well done but the videos get progressively better, and they were great when I started watching years ago. I’m saving this to my favourites.
I'm speechless just thank you thank you so much
So much great information in this video! 🙌
Doing the first 3 minutes of a task you don't feel motivated to do is a great little hack to get you in action. After those first 3 minutes, it's almost more difficult to not carry on most of the time.
Love the list! Definitely helpful
Great list 🤘
This is the best content by Matt that i have watched so far … thanks Matt 💕💕
Well the most difficult thing about any self-help hack, habit, rule,law or whatever is staying consistent. Throughout my teenage years I struggled with this and the solution was very simple, actually. Just because
you missed something once or gave into old habits or temptation(you know what month I am talking about) doesn't mean you lost. Becoming a better version of yourself is a life long process and you have to keep at it with as much effort as possible. Stumbling and giving up isn't the same. Just focus on doing the thing you want as many times as sustainably possible.And always focus on one thing at a tiime.
The mistake I made was making these radical and super difficult but positive changes to my life only to eventually give us after a few weeks. For example I had a serious caffene addiction I'd guzzle down up to 14 cups of coffee every working shift. This was seriously messing up my sleep, mental health and everything in between. For years i tried to solve this by forcing myself to work without coffee. which never worked more than a 2 days. my will alone just wasn't enough to break this almost 2 year long habit. So last year I tried a different approach by avoiding coffee for the first hour of the shift. And then I added a few minutes every week. This progressive overload method worked very well and now for about a month and a half I've been working without drinking a single drop. As a consequence my sleep and mood is a alot better. Also I don't really feel miserable all the time like I used to.
In conclusion, The progressive overload method works in a lot ofother places besides the gym.
