In today's world, being busy is the new norm.
We have a ton of projects we would like to do, and whenever something new comes up, we try to fit it in our already overflowing schedules.
We believe that if we just work more and work harder, we can do it all.
However, being busy doesn't mean we're actually doing things that are important.
The truth is that most things that we do, aren't important at all, but instead are completely trivial.
The antidote to this overwhelming busyness is essentialism.

Hey man, I just wanted to say that I'm subbed to a bunch of improvement channels but yours was the first and I really love your style. I always upvote and I think what you do is great. You're my favorite channel and I always get stoked when I see you have a new video. You're like 1 of 4 people I've wrung the bell on among over a hundred channels? Thank you very much man. I appreciate your work greatly.
You are a practical mago( don't know the meaning, just made up this word)
Thank you so much for your kind comment. It's positive replies like yours that keep me going.
Yeah it will help us to become better than yesterday, Thank you
@@BetterThanYesterday Great work Your videos is Useful Informations....
I am slowly learning that some people are not good for me, no matter how much I love them. I deserve someone who is gentle and kind because my soul is getting tired. Realizing that I deserve something good is one of the first steps.
Conclusion:
Essentialism == Art of prioritizing.
Thank you. I thought it was about defining things by their essence as opposed to statistically, which I think is often a bad call. Glad it's not that.
I'm at a point where just seeing one of your videos in my recommendations makes me feel motivated and more disciplined and then I click on "watch later" and start working
The video u posted about not waiting to be inspired and just start has helped me more than you know.
This channel is exactly what I’m looking for right now! I LOVE the content. This brand has huge potential and I really hope this will continue and on a regular basis. Thank you!!
Thanks for your hard work on this video. It's really inspiring. My comment:
We have a self-sabotaging system. Alcohol, drugs, laziness, overeating are some of them which are obvious. Moreover, some respectful areas (such as career, science, exercise, art, charities etc) may help the sabotage system, if we don't see our real problems.
But why do we sabotage our life, are we crazy? I think it is a childhood/teenage experience. That time, when we were not happy, we found the comfort in turning out our emotions.
I think we don't need to work hard, we need to get out of our comfort zones (which is really hard). Gradually success comes, we enjoy life more.
I'm waiting for Jim Carrey from "YES Man" to respond to this video 😆
I love your content so much when I first saw your videos I saw something about brain detox. I was sticking to my phone the whole day and seeing nothing that could ever help me. I was like 7 hours per day but after watching your videos my phone time got lower. Thank you very much
Your channel has been my daily dose for daily improvement. Thank you!
What a great page!Thank you.
I've found one word that describe myself better than any other! I've lived this way, and I've actually lost friends, and only have a few left who share a real interest with me and don't require babysitting. I think it's better to lose friends who's interests aren't interesting at all, and thus waste my time to babysit them. Thanks for the video!
This channel is worth a thousand channels! Plz keep up doing the good work - the important stuff; making such useful videos.
Very inspiring. Thank the presenter very much.
I needed to be reminded of this. Thank you!
Finally! A book that I already finished reading! Thabk u for this summary
Thank you. It's really helpful. Remind me discipline to choose what really important and of course get back my sleep cycle!
Many Thanks!!!

Thanks 😊❤
Thank you. 🙂
A big thanks to you.Keep doing good works😊
Love your videos thank you
Wow watching this video while I am in the middle of reading “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck” is awesome. Key points are the same. I realize that I am not in line with minimalism, because I am all for ESSENTIALISM. Thank you for this!!
Quality content as always.
It's truly amazing
Really helped thank you 😊
amazing video.. thanks 👌
One of the best books I've read!
This so accurate..
As far as I know about myself and many among my social circle, we have just perfected ourselves in the of numbing into things which keep us busy and make us feel less guilty of being not productive _
thank you sir
super helpfull!
Thank you for saving me days to read the book!
Thank you sir, thank you for making these kind of videos, your voice is very calming and your english very easy to understand..keep it up..subscribed
Happy new year 💫
I love this channel ❤
this is amazing
Tried for 3 years to function in a home office jammed to the walls with too many things: 2 desks, reading chair, bookshelves, large monitor, etc. Finally cracked. Sold the reading chair and tossed the 2nd desk. kept only what was essential for getting my work done. Not an earth-shattering move, but essentialist all the same. Also, I bought Greg’s book sometime before that.
Good explanation. crux: priority the work using 80/20 principle .
Waooooooooo so much informative, so far the best explanation on essentialism, thanks allot
Really true!!
Good video.
I just love the cute accent of the voiceover!
My dad sent me to this so I gotta watch it
Seems you have a caring father.
I definitely needed this video now. I need to find my 20%.
This is not the definition of essentialism … it’s a powerful concept in psychology and an important tenet of philosophy. The meaning is completely different.
Wasting time is important to me !!
Awesome ...I am going to buying you a coffee
This is an important channel.
big fan
It's true mostly time wasting for non essential works... Recently I realised and the same video says... Very happy I found probem before seen this video.. Thank you
Your contents are really gr8t🤗🤗
Subscribed my friend 👍🏽♥️
I’m looking to start essentialism, I started minimalism a few years ago
I finding this from many days
Bro you are doing a great job! I really like your work. Its very educational. Out of inspiration I also am trying to do similar things on my channel. 😅 But anyways keep it up man!😌
Thx for the EU link. It is much appreciated! ;)
Your accent is awesome dude
Now i know the diff between essentialism and minimalism
I recognized my underlying problem. I'm too much of an existentialist or perfectionist try to make the projects or stuff extra perfect. Please give us more insight into how not to be an existentialist.
Thank You !!
Story of my life! 😫
❤️
❤️❤️
This is easily one of the top 3 books that immediately made a difference in my life. I like videogames, but after reading Esstialism, I realized they weren't even close to a 9 anymore and I didn't want to make the tradeoffs I had to make now to play them. Maybe in the future, but I sold all my gaming items after reading the book.
Hmmm, I'm still a bit confused how I feel about all that as a gaming streamer. I guess reducing my gaming time is an option i'll have to consider.
Janek I guess I would just ask yourself do you really enjoy and look forward to doing it and is it stopping you from enjoying something else more? If you do enjoy doing it and you think it is a good use of your time and there is nothing else that you think is more important you should be doing than keep playing! Everyone needs some kind of hobby or thing to relax them, in the right context video games can be that.
@@knicks2030 I guess the "what's more important" is always going to be subjective, however, I definitely enjoy connecting with my audience, making people laugh and helping others through education which I include plenty of during my gaming livestreams :)
"Redeeming the time, for the days are evil. "
Oh my gosh thank you I thought I was going crazy. I’m 23 and have been feeling horrible trying to fit in so many things during the day.. I am in the midst of trying to figure out ways to start a business or earn money from home while caring for my 1 year old. I haven’t felt healthy so I started exercising, cooking healthier, and trying to do my hobby of drawing and creating a platform to share my art work. Because I work from home as a Teacher and also studying for Teaching certificate as online teachers don’t earn much I just do not have enough hours of the day. I did exactly what you said and sacrificed sleep and this affected everything.
Hey Panda! I empathise with you :)
I really recommend you watch "What the Health" and "The Game Changers" on Netflix as well as a pick up a copy of a book called "Rich Dad Poor Dad". Those have changed my life immensely. I wish you all the best on your journey :)
Janek Thank you for the reply :) I recently got my copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad and wow 🤩 what a book!!! We’re all in this struggle together 💪 Wishing you the best as well. 🤗
@@hellcat3586 You're most welcome! I'm glad to hear it :) Feel free to join in on a chat during one of my livestream on CZcams! Have a great day!
Yes to watching this video, also yes to procrastinating studying for exams 🤔
Exams are indeed part of the 80% trivial things, you won't remember one day later. The stuff you learn here is for lifetime.
This is not about adding things to your life, it's about taking things out. Hack away the unessentials
I feel guilty on this, i have a lot of pending i have to finish before basking again. I feel overwhelmed and confuse
What software do you use to make the animations?
Videoscribe
Efficiency is at the cost of enjoyment. They do not go hand in hand. At least in my opinion.
I just realized I've been wasting all this time on CZcams, watching your channel! I'm out! THANK YOU!
Just kidding... this channel is just what I need to learn to better spend my time.
Working hard is a symbolic representation of trying hard enough to please God. Working smart is a symbolic representation of knowing the one fact that matters; the blood of Jesus Christ washes away sin, and no efforts of our own ever will.
God made survival relatively easy to accomplish, as long as begging and playing on the sympathies of others counts. As part of reality, it does.
But, He also made it possible to thrive, and to do so requires a change of mind -- repentance is changing your mind.
Business is an amazing mechanism for revealing God to the world!
I would say no to school because they are not teaching me anything useful like this, but that is sadly not an option.
How can I do videos animated like this? Please how can make videos like this. What software do I need?
Hi, I'm robust lover and fan of your channel, really like your videos so much. I have a small CZcams channel ( 4 subscribers). I use kinemaster but that's really worse. Mind if I ask you, which software you use.
I miss this channel :(((
I just watched the movie yes man.
Then this... hummmmm...
Haha the whole time I was thinking the same thing 🤣
Saying YES opens doors to life and opportunities! Sometimes I feel saying "no" is almost out of fear of missing out on something else.
Thank you for hitting me so hard
When mental health is what you need to tend to, then damned near everything else is trivial.
Awesome video! What is your cool accent?
I remember when you had 10k subs :D
And I remember you commenting :)
I remember those days too! I'm so happy more found this channel!
Same! Love this guy's work and happy he achieved success on CZcams :)
I wasn't there around those days but I'm glad he made it big!
Can you make a video of how to identify what thing are important to you? I've been saying yes and listening to others for so long that I forgot what makes me happy, what I find important and essential in my life is lost by others.
Sleep perception needs comfortable correction; it’s not a building it’s an architectural concept
So, what you're saying is,... I spend 20% of the day doing college work, then spend the rest of the day gaming and I'll be more productive. SORTED! 😎
I think I've just achieved Nirvana 🤩
I’m an essentialist
Work smart, not hard!
When you take care of the essential, you really don’t have much left over for nonsense.
1st Feb 24... Day 01
Thank god I didn’t read an entire book just to “learn” to prioritize.
I wish it had subtitles in Portuguese Br ...
Essencially first
Essentially written wrong lol
I was so excited I was first, my bad, thanks
@@loodi8879 just a joke
@@loodi8879 But why are you so excited lol
You can still edit your commet and correct the mistake ;)
