    The thing I do is observe when I get in that lazy spot, then I'm like 'ight chill one thing at a time', and the next day I wake up eat a healthy breakfast and hop on my bike and ride round the city just to enjoy the moment but to get more fit. From then it's like the universe knows what I'm trynna to do and it keeps in store more fitness within my life, swear down this works fitness like running, cycling going to the gym is my addiction when I get addicted to the lazy spot on a phone playing too much games, love this video man speaking the truth and more kids, teenagers/ adults need to hear his more beacuse this is more common then we think, all the love man ❤

    3:50 I struggle with this as well. I have bursts of motivation every so often that feels like it overwhelms that resistance within me. However, when I've got major assignments to work on (Essay, Study for exam), I tend to go for smaller, more easy tasks like organizing my To-Do list more efficiently, outlining/working on lesser assignments, sometimes even tiding up my desk or room. I am being productive by doing these things, but I'm still avoiding work towards the pressing responsibilities. I think it's that instant gratification you mentioned.
    Funny enough, this video popped up on my feed while procrastinating.

    I just found your channel from another video & wanted to say it’s really refreshing to see people my age (I turn 20 at the end of the month) that I can relate to. I’ve unfortunately struggled with perfectionism for years like you mention in the video. I’ve watched a lot of self help videos and content on procrastination so I’ve heard a lot of these points but honestly just seeing you doing your thing and relating to you helped me in a different way if that makes sense. You have a really natural energy about you that grabbed my attention and I’m coming to realize more and more that I don’t have to be over the top or edit like crazy or even engage with other social media platforms in order to have an audience. I’m gonna be real I haven’t even finished the video I paused to comment because this inspired me and gave me a bunch of ideas on how to move forward lol. Keep up the good work!

The only thing i struggle with is social media, i just cant leave my phone sadly. But ill surely find my way to quitting that shit.

    I’m trying to simplify everything into my own words from these videos so it sticks:
    - resistance is the outcome of something that provides you pleasure or gratification instantly, basically, why work hard if I’m already comfortable and it’s easy?
    Note to self: being a people pleaser and being easily swayed by opinions is NOT GOOD, gotta be confident in one’s self, then you will see who is real to you and you can be real to others.

    If you don't do it now it will never get done. The only moment that exists is the present moment, later is an illusion. So by keep saying "I'ma do it later" you'll never actually do it because when later comes you'll still say the same thing. What is helped me is having a do list everyday and just marking it out once I complete each thing. I also add words of motivation to make sure I stay strong

    I enjoy listening to your videos, I find some videos (and just the general world at times) to be very overwhelming. I don’t realize how stimulating everywhere around me is until I get home, and when I don’t have the urge to do anything. But, what I absolutely love is cleaning when I’m home alone. I’m alone, with my thoughts, I don’t have to talk to anyone for a period of time, it’s just me myself and I. I make a list in the morning of what I need to do, and because I am home alone, I don’t have anyone to worry about (as in, talking to people, socializing, etc). I put lo fi music on the tv and I leave my phone in my room. I leave it under my pillow so if I ever go into my room for whatever reason I won’t see it, and I’m less likely to use something if I don’t see it. Maybe what I said makes sense but maybe it doesn’t. Sorry if my comment is long.
    Edit: I made the comment BEFORE finishing the video and I agree, out of sight, out of mind.
