You’re not going to get the same value if you just read this comment and don’t watch the full talk, don’t rob yourself

(For future reference) The 3 cognitive distortions : 1) 2:57 "I just can't do it! I don't have what it takes" 2) 5:50 "this is just not who I am" 3) 10:22 "I should do this, I need to do this, *but eh I don't really want to do it though* I should do it" Solutions: 1) remind yourself that it is okay to fail. Learn from the failures and just keep swimming. Effort >> 2) find people who have the same values as you, and who found a way to make things work in a way that doesn't clash with those values. Find a way to do the things you wanna do in a way that aligns with and not clashes with your identity. 3) find your "why", the real reason why you wanna do something. It should be an intrinsic motivation and not a just superficial and external one. Remind yourself of your why to stay motivated

But if the 'end result' is at least visible (like, it took 1700 experiments for Edison to light the bulb, but he made progress because he saw himself reaching there), it matters a lot to observe patience. If for some reason your day didn't deliver you on to the end goal, you can always see how it's is very much possible and that it is only a matter of time. You are now a step closer.

Then, when you have to sit down and do it, you can ground back into the part of you that really wants this, and stay out of the part that is doing it for extrinsic interest, which sounds like it might be part of what's tripping you up.

Shift your mindset from, "secretly you don't want to do it, you just think you SHOULD do it because the people you emulate to do it," to drawing a straight bright-line from your long-term dreams (e.g. buying a house, sitting with your children by a crackling fire) to the desired behavior instead of motivation such as becoming a wealthy, admired, 'cool' person. **If the work you want to do is hard, there WILL be urges in the moment to quit, and it is INTRINSIC INTEREST that keeps you focused on the actions you need to take.

This was a very good Ted talk. I always have struggled to keep up with goals. Now that I’ve gotten good advice I’m going to write down the steps I will take to accomplish my goals. I will allow myself to try what I want to do, and not be afraid of failure. I will take it as an opportunity to grow and learn from it. I will not do things that other people do just to be cool. I will do what I find interesting and socialize with people that have similar interests and have done things that I would like to learn how to do. I will think about the reason why I want to do these goals. Is it for people to admire me? Or is it because I have a dream of doing this and I’m very interested in it. I will take time to research my interests, and if I’m not very interested for the right reasons, I will just not do it.

“To the ones who are there for me & who always have my back…… everything you are to me is everything I lack.” - BM TeamWork and finding the right ones to surround yourself with is major also because misery loves company and they’ll continue to feed your appetite of self gratification with false hope and accomplishments. Keep striving for greatness & stop settling for less than you deserve.

Once you have successfully managed to overcome these cognitive distorsions, something interesting happens to you. When you go off the beaten track and know deep in your gut that it's the right way to go, you will have to face criticism from people who claim to know better than you. Well, never ever listen to those who say you can not do it. Do what your heart says is right. Some people desperately want others to fail to feel better about themselves. You are not the problem, they are. You don't owe them anything. Instead, you should embrace your uniqueness and reach the dreams that you so desperately want to reach because you DESERVE to live a happy life. Always remember that we were born here on Earth to feel joy. Yes, the grind can be strenuous but your future self is there already thanking you for all the efforts you've put into reaching your goals.

Hands down the best talk I have ever listened to and was so so so so much relatable.

This quite informative and you did a great job bringing the reasons people don't go far with the things they really wish to do.Well done!!

Brilliant TED Talk. thank you for sharing.

Really good and makes total sense as I sit here avoiding my reorganizing my kitchen cabinets...love your story.

One of the best, eye opening, amazing talk I heard and loved and was engaged throughout in listening!

Great conclusion. I'm in all 3 reasons. Believe I can make it too to stop the three mindset blocks.

This video has changed my life. I have been telling myself to work out for months now and I just found out I never wanted to do it. Fitness moves and workouts were not for me so I found out what I'm passionate about which is boxing. I did a boxing workout right after I watched this video, been trying to get out of bed for months...

I'm so glad it helped you!

All who are blaming the audience (oddly 10 - 15 people) for being silent - this is most likely a post-lunch session and the hall as shown @ 5:56 is sufficiently dark to set in a drowsy mood. At least, the video got us, the virtual audience, to see & listen to this very good speaker on our own ambiance.

Your talk hits the nail on the head for me in regards to motivation. It is worth of listening multiple times!

Thank you so much!! I so appreciate that!

Great talk, definitely gave me something to think about ❤️❤️

I related to every word of her speech , got my lesson , and must say good JOB !! and the audience is really heart centered defensive type .

Thank you for sharing your hard-won lessons with us. It resonated powerfully with me. I hope all those struggling with one or all of these mindset blocks may take one step toward the person you want to be.

This was so great! I took two pages of notes. I'm in grad school and that's more notes than I take in some 3 hour lectures! So much great, well-researched, practical advice. Thank you!

This was all I needed to listen to. Thank you so much for bringing this up.

This was amazing and inspiring to watch. I am more enthused on moving my cycle of productive failure. Learning to fail forwards. Thanks, Amanda. I love your vibes and insights. This is greatly helpful for understanding myself.

This is just what I needed to hear, right down to the running. I’ve started running but keep stopping, because I keep telling myself what’s the point I’m no good. So true in many areas of life

Yes! Now you can tell yourself, the point is that "I'm not good yet, but I'm better than yesterday!" And just keep going. I'm glad it helped.

i agree with everything here, i totally felt many of the negative things in here. thankfully i'm not completely worthless and willing to do things

She is so right 💯

Awesome talk! Thank you for sharing this info and your story. 💪🏽
