@the art of improvement, I love your inspirational stories. Have you got any on conflict management in relationships? Thank you
Wishing that my significant other would comprehend like that đpâ°
I I know a person just like that
We have a very similar proverb in Russian: " ĐŽŃŃĐœĐ°Ń ĐłĐŸĐ»ĐŸĐČĐ° ĐœĐŸĐłĐ°ĐŒ ĐżĐŸĐșĐŸŃ ĐœĐ” ĐŽĐ°ŃŃ" (stupid head gives legs no rest.) It has 2 meanings:
1) think before you leave so that you don't have to come back to pick up what you forgot
2) if you forgot something, now go get it. And think next time.
I tried to stand up every hour but it really affected my sleep.

1 habit to get rid of for more efficiency: stop watching CZcams productivity videos without not even planning to do it
Dont call me out like this man
Youâre too loud !!
But there might be an activity on here that I already do... which would enable me to feel better about my life direction without actually implementing anything!!!
This is so true bruh. We keep watching it to the point we don't want to follow them too.
I'm in this message and i don't like it
If you drink enough water then you will HAVE to stand up more often đ€Ș
not fair men get twice the standing time as women đ
Thatâs sort of what I was thinking...between trips to get water and trips to the toilet, Iâm pretty sure I stand up almost every waking hour.

21: I fell out of love with reading due to having a hard time focus. My solution? Childrenâs books. The diary of a wimpy kid is all I needed to remember what itâs like to read again and now Iâm working through complex books
Yes!!!! I could never focus on reading so I decided to read percy jackson!!! I have never read that much in so little time
I highly recommend picking up some of the Discworld novels by Terry Pratchett! Truly excellent fiction for any age
@tatiana topczewska. I highly recommend the suggestion of Terry Pratchett novels. He is a great satirist with awesome, hilarious footnotes, hilarious and engaging characters (yes, I swoon over Sam Vimes), absorbing and suspenseful plots.
The Colour of Magic is the first book, but I personally prefer Guards, Guards! as a great introduction to Discworld, Ankh-Morpork and some important recurring characters.
Making Money made me a Pratchett fan; he essentially predicted the shenanigans that precipitated the 2008 banking crisis -- in 2004. Again, great characters with great names (seriously, who names their own son Moist?)
@@Bubbles-ug3vr I read Percy when I was in my 20s and experiencing a reading slump. At first I felt guilty for reading âchildrenâsâ books, but I ended up enjoying it so much that shame disappeared. Itâs now one of my favourite series, plus it rekindled my passion for reading. I now read a wide variety of books for many audiences in many genres.
@@Kiki-reads aw yay im gladdd
Decluttering is good, but don't just throw them away, donate them to those who need it.
Yes!
I could not believe he didn't mention this alternate to literally throwing items in the trash.
There is another form of decluttering. I have been trying out the throw 1 thing a day for 2 weeks now and found expired medicines and packaging/letters(the company won't stop sending paper no matter how much requested), dried out stationeries, etc which has become redundant. Best thrown away! đ€Ł
@@Anna-hb2se OBVIOUSLY some items are actual trash and should be thrown away. But the vast majority of home items that are no longer wanted can be recycled or upcycled. "Reduce, reuse, recycle" is a motto so common at this point that it's pretty appalling he didn't refer to it.
@@vjhreeves everyone has to start somewhere. Start small and moving on to big can be a thing. It would be great if he had mentioned/thought about it. Maybe he missed it out. Maybe it didn't occur to him. Or he could even mean "throw away" as a collective term to mean get rid of it in ways which include donate/sell/etc. But there is no need to get so upset about it.
1) Gratitude
2) Refuse once a week
3) Exercise for a minute in the morning
4) Invest in experiences
5) Organise your home
6) Throw things away
7) Manage your money

2. Refuse something once a week is an excellent lesson. People will walk all over you if you say yes to everything. Great video.
I recently discovered this, it feels empowering to say no to things you don't want to do, but I also somehow feel a little guilty. How do you get over the guilt?
@@HelenaEngstrom I felt guilty at first too, but I was happier because I had more time to do things I wanted to accomplish. The real, lasting happiness you gain justifies your decision-not the ever-changing desires of other people.
Unfortunately it is part of my job đđ
@@HelenaEngstrom I had it explained as 'spoon theory' there's a video about it here on CZcams if you want an in depth explaination. I remember finding it, not what's called or who posted it... it's been years...
But basically you start your day with a limited amount of energy, or a number of spoons. You can't do everything, so you have to pick where you put those spoons to.
If you keep giving out your spoons to everyone who asks for one, you'll run out and son't have enough to care for yourself and you'll ultimately start letting all the people you care about down when you're too exhausted.
It was originally meant to explain those limitations to others, to help them be more understanding of people with disabilities who might have to turn down an invitation for coffee or some other slight.
Even a person without a disability has a limited number of spoons. Make sure you're putting them to what's important to you and it's not your fault if people can't understand.
@@HelenaEngstrom remember that if you burn out, you can't say yes to things either. saying no now protects your ability to say yes in the future.
"Make your bed," doesn't have to literally refer to your bed. It could refer to the re-ordering, re-establishing, straightening, or re-organizing of anything, like straightening pictures, shaving, vacuuming, organizing your desk or a shelf. A "bed" can be anything that becomes out of sorts during the day.
I can't sleep on my depression
@@invalidargument6376 you depress because there something you need to FINISH.
I see it as the "first act" of the day, so when you get up, you make the bed, thus it is neat and finished. Pam Young and Peggy Jones have taught "How to get organized" since 1977 and Peggy said "I told my husband he made a bed in the military that you could "pop" a quarter from, so he could make the bed at home."
I doubt that. Make your bed means make your bed. Start off doing things properly right off the bat.
The second I get out of bed, I always fold the duvet back, so it neatly covers the end of the mattress only. This way, I let the mattress 'air' for at least an hour (more if I can), to prevent bed bugs and other nasty things. Right before I leave, I make my bed (2 minutes), brush my teeth (2 minutes), put on outerwear, and leave the house. So it gets at least 1 hour of 'air'.
It really does make you feel more organised to have a tidy bed, and this feeling of being 'adult' drives you to do other things to make you feel even more organised. So while you technically can use something else, a bed is something easy, but in many people, the impact is greater than all the other things you mention. :)
I'm a month late but still putting the 5 habits that I want to add in my life:
1. Invest in experiences
2. Stand up every hour
3. Ask yourself wwether what you're doing is worth it
4. If a task takes 2 minutes, do it right away
5. Read for 15 minutes a day.
Take you for this amazing video!!
It's been about a month, how are you doing with this so far?
Yea how is it going?

17. Spend a minute a day with yourself
Me, an introvert: *how about 1440 minutes a day?*
He means for yourself without videos, games, series, books, any activity... It is a time to be with yourself without distractions. You can be an introvert and still be busy 100% percent a day with stuff and not feel live you have a time alone with yourself.
I still think 1 min is pretty low - I don't think there is ever a day I don't spend 1 min in my own thoughts. So I upped it to 10 min for myself.
Do you see how in the graphic he drew of people sitting together, there seem to people of all colour and even a person in a wheelchair? I really appreciate his attention to detail and inclusivity. Itâs such a small but sweet gesture.
Amen đ
Yes, I noticed that too. Inclusivity & representation matter! Kudos for being mindful of that. :)

Three things I am grateful during the pandemic and working from home period:
I have paying work,
I have a home,
Everything else is bonus.
Indeed with food & clothing, we are to be content
I like the "bonus" attitude. Gratitude, nothing should be taken for granted.

Why does making my bed change my life? Itâs such an unnecessary chore to me.
My top tiny habit:
Time yourself when working, studying, exercising, cleaning etc.
These things can feel daunting and quickly become something to dread, but if I tell myself I'll only work (with no distractions) for one hour, I often amaze myself with how much I was able to accomplish and since I'm already "in the zone" I often finish the task at hand even after the time is up! This has helped me get on the deans list at school, motivate myself when working from home, keep a tidy house, and get fit because I have 10 minutes here and 10 minutes there, and the task feels much less overwhelming when it's only for a short time.
Brilliant
this sounds like an excellent idea!!

Depends on the type of your work. A janitor can clean up a restroom in an hour but a software engineer may spend one hour on debugging code written in 30mins by his/her team
As a chronic procrastinator, the 2 minute rule really has helped me. Fewer things to procrastinate allows time for the important stuff and the fewer tiny tasks sitting around that can distract you. Used to stack mail inside the door and sort through it on Paydays (why look at a bill before you have money to pay it?). With the 2 minute rule, I deal with it right away and toss, shred, or put in the bill pile. When it is payday, going through bills becomes a 2 minute (or 5 minute) tasks and much less likely to be procrastinated.
I cut dishwashing, which I hate, to 3 parts and only do one of it at a time. (Fill the small drain with freshly washed dishes, put the less wet dishes to the drying rack, put the dry dishes to their place). Thus is gets much shorter and I feel the satisfaction of a task done much more often thus I am more motivated. I found this chopping method very useful against both procrastination and stress. I think you did the same with the bills:) cute kitty picture btw.:D
@@Athreana I hate doing dishes too! Whenever Iâm done with a plate or glass, I wash it immediately, instead of letting them pile up into a daunting task đŹ
@@christopherrussell6055 good idea! It is doable ans workable when living alone, but much harder to keep as the rule of the household if other/s do not stick to it:) but agreed, washing directly after use is a good method indeed:)
I do the rough sort, but I have to get into the habit of doing the work of the remainder pile.... that I am still procrastinating because each item is going to take multiple steps to resolve ... thankfully a good deal this pile has been shifted to a virtual pile by auto bill pay and online statements...

I love how itâs written âin 2021â ans I got recommended this on the 1st January 2022
For me the most efficient are: 1. Make your bed 2. Drink more water 3. Stand up after half-hour 4. Take 1 minute a day for your self 5. Do 1 minute exercise in the morning 6. Organize your home 7. Pay on experience 8. Prepare your clothes the night before 9. Leader are reader 10. Set your to-do list everyday

@ramunerocks. Remember, at the beginning, he says pick 1, pick 2 -- whoever many you want to tackle.
I have read that it is easier to add one habit at a time. So pick one for a couple of weeks (or three), then add another one.
You are correct that trying to do all those all at once is overwhelming.
Nah, it's when he zooms out at the end and you see 50,
1. Write three things you are grateful for.
2. Refuse once a week
3. Exercise for a minute when you wake up
4. Invest in experienced
5. Organize your home
6. Throw things away
7. Manage your money
8. Stand up every hour
9. Accept that what's done is done, and move forward. Follow this
10. Ask open ended questions
11. Turn off notifications
12. Prepare your clothes before night.
13. Watch the news less
14. Drink more water

21. Read for 15 minutes a day.
My girlfriend don't understand nothing like that
This is so true I wish you could hear that
My absolute #1 habit change is figuring out how much sleep you need every night and then aiming to get that. Sleep has such huge impacts to our physical and mental well-being and you will be energized enough to follow through with any other habit changes you aim for. After struggling from insomnia, I realize the importance of sleep and effects of being sleep deprived. I have many sleep tips on my No More Sleepless podcast to help others struggling with getting good sleep.
Where can I get the podcast?
where can i find it?
That's funny it did the opposite for me. When I didn't know how important sleep was I was sleeping like a baby. Then I learned all the important stuff about sleep and got me anxious of not getting enough of it therefore disturbing my sleeping rythme due to anxiety. I've been struggling for the past 6 months with insomnia. It's getting better slowly but it's hard sometimes

I came back to this video to tell you that thanks to you, I exercise every morning for 1-1.5 minutes and it has helped me so-so much! It might seem like nothing, but in the contrary, it adds so much to my day. It became a habit to me, I do it every morning :)
What exercises do you do?
@@emanuelabego2408 Just some easy ones - rolling the neck, shoulders, wrists, squats, things like this :)
Squats ,push ups, and the neck rolls covers it and if you make this a daily habit, then start adding a tiny bit to each exercise . Do it slowly until THAT is part of the habit. Before you know it, you are getting healthier :)
As for posture, I highly recommend joining an adult ballet or pilates class. These classes strengthen your core and stop you from slouching.
I started a daily gratitude list in 1996, which has changed my life incredibly. This is done in a daily journal where I make a things to do list as well. In this journal I also document my exercise routines done each day. I commend you on this great video.
Such small things like practicing gratitude, shaking off one's laziness and exercising a bit and watching the news less truly work wonders. Thanks for this fantastic reminder
8. Stand up every hour.
Notifications and reminders dont work and I also dont want to break my flow. So I chose to not sit now and stand all day! Never felt better
Donât stand for too long! I used to do this and stood for 8-12 hours a day and by feet got swollen. Apparently it also increases your chances of heart disease, Iâm glad I looked this up before I stood up for and extended period of time. Just make sure not to stand for more than 4 hours :)
Standing desks or desk converters help.

If you use the pomodoro technique for working, the five minute breaks are perfect for standing up and walking around a bit! In my early uni semesters, when I was still getting into the habit of using pomodoro and moving during my breaks, I felt super self conscious walking around the library, but gradually I got used to it and realized that no one cares what you're doing as long as you're not loud đ

Throwing things away and decluttering is great both for quality of life and mental health. Won't deny in need to improve at standing up every hour
I have been doing this the past 3 weeks. Part spring cleaning and part due to a small life event that changed my home routines. Noticed that decluttering and cleaning does have a beneficial mental health aspect. Decluttered home makes for a decluttered mind. Subconsciously you see a mess/stuff and think you should do something about it. By actually doing it, it removes that from your mind and frees it up. Home is less stressful because there are fewer home to-do projects. This could be as simple as going through a closet and putting all the clothes you can no longer wear, or haven't worn in the past year, in a bag and dropping off at goodwill.
Rolled out of bed this morning and started with 15, pushups & squats. I was skeptical but I actually felt the fog go away on rep 6/7. It really got the blood moving first thing. Thanks for the tip and all the other good ones! Keep doing what makes you happy.
i started reading one page a day a couple of months ago and that got me into reading again because you're most likely not going to stop after one page
22. Always give unexpected-extra gift to someone.
*The better questions you ask others and yourself, the more quality the conversation/your life will be.*
*Always be questioning, with quality!*
As Einstein put it: The most important thing is the question. In the right question you already have 90% of the answer.
And really, science is almost only about finding better questions. (And 10% about using a multi-million dollar machine in a way it was never intended to be used ;) )
him: "Take care of your posture."
me: "and, I took that personally."
Posture is so important & I struggle with it! Consistently standing up straight, holding in tummy & remembering to breath too is a challenge that takes thought & effort but improves back pain & headaches
I started doing 11th a year ago and it helped me so much! I was less stressed and more focused on my work, plus I felt more positive. I check my phone after lunch (fixed time every day and in the evening after work. So people now know that if it is something urgent they should call me, not write (and most of people are lazy to call). Also, deleted all my accounts on social networks (fb, insta, twitter etc) 5 years ago and it felt so liberating! I don't subconsciously and consciously compare my life to other people's (and I couldn't stop doing this before, even though we all know 90% of it is fake). Due to that, now I meet my friends and go for a walk, to a museum, gallery, parks, to ride a bike or workout or play games... and it is so much better. Not to mention that I also feel safer and less paranoid now that I know people don't know where I am and what I do...
I just refused a job that was supposed to be a job for other person. I am on higher position so Iâve got to get their jobs done. I refused and it felt good
I have a set of short routines I do every single day. After 4 years of this, I can assure you that missing one is now so distasteful to me that I am absolutely compelled to make up for it. It's as if I've ploughed grooves in my mind that won't allow me to deviate without some unpleasant feeling.
I try to learn something every single day. Look stuff up, find a new topic or hear abt something I have never heard of before.
I have felt that as someone who grew up without internet and having to go to a library to learn, now itâs amazing that any question I have I can know the answer instantly. I have never lost being thankful for this.
Thank you! I'm watching this in 2022 and I've done half of your list. Doing those microhabits won't, indeed, change your life right away but doing those consistently will improve your life. I currently already applied 9 out of 21 habits on your list, and my favorite among them is turning off notifications
this channel is really helping me everyday , thank you! also your voice or robot voice? its so comforting lol
Hereâs a few of my own tiny habits Iâm trying to take up, which added together make a difference.
1- Make a list of all the things youâve procrastinated doing for hours, days, or even weeks, and do one each hour. This mostly applies to household chores. Examples would be picking up something thatâs been sitting on the ground out of place for weeks, and looking at every day yet feeling like itâs not even worth it to do; or cleaning your bathroom sink; or putting clothes away that have been thrown around.
2- To easily add a new habit, pair it along with another habit or routine you already have. I canât remember or make time to exercise each day, so I tried doing squats every time I brushed my teeth. Or make the bed while waiting for the shower to warm up.
3- Put something away the first time. Donât waste your time by setting it on a table when thatâs not where it belongs. This makes a huge difference in keeping things tidy. Iâve also heard this expressed as âTouch everything once.â You only touch it as youâre using it, then put it away before you put it down.
4- Get an electric timer to turn off your internet every night. Forces you to go to bed earlier or at least spend that time more wholesomely.
Love that, @Claire T. Blessings /|\ :)

This was so helpful! I needed a reminder that bite sized efforts can help a lot. Woke up, made my bed and did a little exercise and already felt better. I used to do morning stretches and had stopped and it's amazing how a simple routine like that can help so much
..my mood has been off and I forget the little choices are all one needs to get back on track!
My one thing these couple of months is 'to get rid of stuff'. Selling, donating or throwing it away as a last resort. Sometimes I even repair so I can donate.
1. Exercise 1m in the morning
2 prepare your clothes the night before
3. Drink water
4. Change the room

Absolute genius video. I've always been a big believer that 'the small steps turn into the big steps and the big ones make you amazing'. In other words, exercising a minute a day could turn into an hour a day which could turn into better physical and mental health. This then means life feels so much better and so on and so fourth
Finding this now with 2022 coming up fast, I think the reason a lot of people don't do these small habits that can make life and mental health easier is because we over think them and blow them out of proportion... When we think about every microscopic step we have to take, or how difficult it feels to simply stand up sometimes, we are telling ourselves how much harder this is and how tired we think we are and that it's not worth it, when it's much easier than we think and really is worth it.
I admit, I do this to myself sometimes. However building awareness of when I am doing it has helped a lot for me.
Yes to Number 9!! I actually see it a different way...it reminds us to of how supportive reality actually is for getting us to the co-created intention that we are manifesting. So many times we get so heady about a situation that we miss the forest for the trees. Getting in to our legs and in to our bodies enables us to leverage reality and feel our way instead of thinking our way in to or out of a situation.
During the Southern Australian winter my morning fog lasts nearly 24 hours. Incorporating these ideas into my routine is helpful
Right?? I start to fall asleep at work during the mornings so keen to try these and see if they help
I do a lot of these already, but there's a few I can definitely add. I'm going to try to workout first thing in the morning. I think it'll help me get my day started on a more positive note.
I really can say most all these are ones I've read and studied about in the past. Thank you for the great reminders!
I love throwing things away! It liberates space mentally and physically.
"So, attend carefully to your posture. Quit drooping and hunching around. Speak your mind. Put your desires forward, as if you had a right to them- at least the same right as others. Walk tall and gaze forthrightly ahead. Dare to be dangerous. Encourage the serotonin to flow plentifully through the neural pathways desperate for its calming influence.." ~ The Red Skull
Can we start calling JP, Captain Canada lol
Lol, brilliant. Sounds exactly like something a super nazi would say... Or you know, anyone that wants you to improve your life.

pray with thanksgiving. That is what the bible says.
@@56pjr I'm not christian, but it's great to follow your believings :)
AWESOME list!!! đđŒđ
wdym by spend money in experiences
@@antonmanalo2544 The purpose of being ... to experience.
Things - no matter how much "wanted" are just things and if the things bring more stress than pleasure - things are not a good experience.
But ... thrill your soul with 'an experience' ... you will understand.
May you understand.
Exercise is a great place to start. It's a keystone habit that impacts other areas of your life. I also love the gratitude habit. Game changer!
I do virtually all of these things each day and they have made my life much better.
I Highly Recommend âThe Power Of Habitâ by Charles Duhigg, it is an awesome read, it helps you understand how habits are formed and how to break them! Also I recommend Libby for Audio books it helps you read so much more.
I would also stack Atomic Habits with the one OP named.
I agree! Power of Habit and Atomic Habits are game changers!
As a French, it made me happy that you know "quand on n'a pas de tĂȘte, on a des jambes". ^^
I think we would get along well. I'm conscious about all those habbits and try to implement almost all of them as well. One I might add, take the stairs whenever you can. If you're on an escalator, climb the moving stairs anyway (providing you live in a country where they stand on one side and let you go through). Little bits of cardio here and there.
24 may 2021. as my goal is to be more in alignment with myself, i'll apply to get rid off distractions: no notifications and watching the news less. also to be connected with reality, i'm gonna stand up every hour and move my body more often. to fulfill my sense of adventure, i'll also try a new thing once a month. for example a new hobby, a new workout, a new recipe.
Thank you! I enjoyed watching this and most of them, I'm already practicing for quite sometime now, so about to adopt just few more but I really have to be self-aware to do that!!!
The best way to read more is put a book in the bathroom. When you're in there read even it is only a small amount the pages really add up. You'll be amazed!
I have a massive textbook on the history of poetry and critical analysis that I could never throw out. So i put it in my bathroom, open at the last page I've perused. Amazing how it's elevating my thinking and writing.
@@sheilacollins9384 There are books more or less useful for this, but there certainly are ones where it pays off idf you only read a page or two and then have the hand washing time to think about the important point you just read.
As a bonus, you never have to fear running out of toilet paper.
@@Firerose101 Well, that's a special part of literature. Almanachs.
Though modern "I sell everything to you" capitalism has also invented printed toilet paper for 5 times the price.
I am not sure if I can approve of this type of shit literature.
I am so kind of proud of myself...already implementing most of them đ
Thank you for sharing this compilation of microhabits. I'm glad some of them are already part of my daily routine. I particularly enjoyed the great illustrations.
Love these ideas. Will be trying to add them slowly so I can stick to them.
Just found this channel and subscribed. Great content!
17: âspend 1 minute with yourself: let your thoughts wonderâ
Me who gets harrassed by my brain every single night bc every second it gets it will try to make my life miserable: âHow about we donât do thatâ
youre just soft tbh
@@WT-sf5jc have you lived with my brain? No. So can you say Iâm just soft for not liking to be with my brain? No. You donât know what itâs like so you canât judge. I would say go deal with my brain for a few months and see if you like it but you canât, wouldâve loved to see that
yup
@Julia Doodles: hope things get better. Did you find a habit that works for you to try?
If you can't sleep , try jing fang remedy. You'll sleep and feel a lot vetterđ
I do almost all of these already. Thanks for the reminder on the others.
Love this â„ïž! I already do many of these things but it was refreshing to see everything in one âđœ nice animated video to know I have healthy habits.
The Art of Improvement is my favourite channel. Carry on with new, novel ideas in your awesome videos. Tnx Sir.
I need to listen to this every week!!
Thankyou for sharing.
I feel number 20 and 21 rings a bell of truth.
I started doing 19 like 3 years ago after hearing that in a Reddit post and it has really helped me become more organized and tidy.
This is easier said than done. Being grateful, thinking positive, trying to cheer yourself up is all fine, but it works for two days at the most for many people. It is better to simply stop your daily routine, take a break and do deliberate introspection on what your problems are, were and will be. Be honest in your analysis, but be practical from a third person point of view. What attitudes helped you, what didn't, and what will... Implement simple changes everyday. Don't be over-critical or drastic. And take it easy...
Absolutely to the point
@@richardprice9730 Thanks... đ
Agreed! Habits really stuck with me when I realized I didnât have to do it all the way, perfect, and all the time.
I started being grateful each evening before bed many years ago. This did have a positive effect on my daily routine. As an over-the-road trucker, some days I could only be grateful to have found safe parking and my bed.
This has become difficult since I started working locally and have to deal with people every day.

This channel is a gem đ!!!! Thank you for making these video although I practice almost all of them everyday
Great to hear!
True said
I love your art it is very clearly to understand
Rather than throwing away, I give and have made a lot of ppl happy!
*Getting this video recommended after 6 months into 2021*
Me: I can still turn this aroundâđŒ
Dude, same
Samee đ 2021 not over yet! đ€
Let's check in a month how were going
@@BBOYCHALO Betttt!
Some habits that have become second nature to me and which I think really help me:
- Make bed every day first thing
- No laptop in bedroom (similar to the organise your home habit - watching movies happens in the living room, not in bed)
- Have a place for everything (particularly for things like keys, passports) and always put it back there. I have a couple of things that have a maximum of 2 places it lives, so itâs rare I canât find anything.
- take reusable shopping bags. Not just for environmental purposes but it helps me only buy what I can physically carry home.
- carry folded laundry in your arms and put it away right away. Laundry baskets so often end up just storing clean clothes. I carry folded laundry to my bedroom and even if I place it on the bed, I have to put it away by the evening.
- flatten cardboard packaging for recycling. Do it right away when you put it in the recycling box. Itâll save space and you wonât have to smush things down. Means you can empty the recycling less frequently (recyclables need to be clean anyway so there shouldnât be an issue with smell)
Wow now that Iâm thinking about it there are so many things I do out of habit
I love this channel. Very practical and doable information. Inspirational!
Wow i just searched ( how to change my life when there's so much to improve) out of overwhelm and this video was the first on the list AND IT DOES NOT DISAPPOINT â€ïž Thanks man
Perfect timing for this new video, I've already been incorporating some of these tiny habits into my day to day! As a new fan, I appreciate your video style, art, and diction. Here's to a good 2022!
To clarify, by perfect timing, I mean I discovered this video a few days ago, on the 30th of December.
Get a standing desk to take care of item #8. I have been working from for over a year now and my desk is a standing desk so it has been a game changer in terms of health. Instead of standing every so often as I would with a sitting desk, I crank out a set of push-ups, free squats or dumbbell exercises. Highly recommended.
I paid 600⏠for a desk with changable hight (electric motor). I can't stand for very long times so I move it up for maybe an hour a day and then back to sitting. One of the best things I ever bought.
Thank to you, I can recognize some simple habits that I can do them right away. Thank u so much â€ïž
Lots of great advice. The practice of gratitude is essential to living a successful life.
Atomic habits is a great book that dives into these tips in further detail. Great video
Watching it nearly in the end of 2021 but hoping for applying all these in the coming year! đ Keep on improving folks đ
All of us improving tgt in this year!!!
Play a sports related game at least one a week just for 20-30 minutes, it makes exercise fun and a good way to spend productive time with friends. Even if youâre not athletic just mess around, get a soccer ball, basketball ball, literally just move around with things like that. The little events make a difference and youâll be surprised how fast a fun game can actually turn into a skill. Iâd never played soccer before this past year but in only 4 months after me and my best friend would go to the park every Wednesday, I can now run consistently for 20 minutes and kick a ball further and faster than Iâve even been able to- make it fun, keep with it and youâll be surprised!!
okay this is no doubt THE BEST LIST of little good habits I've seen on the internet Sr. Thank you. I'll watch it as many times as I need until I memorize them and introduce them in my daily life. SUPER RECOMMENDED.
don't "throw it away" - repurpose it or give to a charity
...and the next time you're about to buy something, ask yourself how essential is it... 'cuz sooner or later you'll have to decide whether to toss it, donate it, or let it continue to clutter up your life.
Thank you, i really needed a reminder to keep doing these amazing things that i already know †and guess what.. I'mma be reading my favorite book for 15minutes
Thank you Mathias!! This was a really good one!
Almost two years ago, this video helped me a lot. I hope that people who see it will still be inspired by it.
Here are some plus habits:
- yoga
- workout
-meditation
-make your lunch instead of buying processed food
- listen to podcasts you are interested in or helps you growing (like podcasts about conciousness or self love)
- have time with your pets if you have
Time with my pets makes my day so much better
*Always be learning everyday.*
Even if it's just a small article or a video like this or mine, it will go a looong wayđȘđ»
So let's learn any news. đ€Ș
Especially since it's a task that takes less than 2 minutes to do. đ€Ș
Thank y'all so much dearest đč
Y'all such an inspiration đ„°
Appreciate y'all from the bottom of my heart đ
Be Blissful Eternally đđŒđ
