The social pressure thing really doesn't work for me. In fact it kind of does the opposite. If I don't keep up with what I said and someone calls me out on it, it tends to make me just give up entirely. I found that it's better to tell no one and feel no pressure. Then just do it, and it feels nice when people comment about your success later.

I think that has to do with the dysfunctional beliefs that failure is bad, and the overpowering shame that comes with it. If you can get someone who isn't going to think less of you for failing, but will stay by ur side and help you get back up again, and you can learn that take on that same mindset, I think their form of social pressure is very healthy. Unfortunately, it's rare to find someone such as that on your life.

This is the real deal! This video goes into the science of procrastination without overwhelming people. Procrastination is quite simple. It involves tweaking your surroundings, a system of rewards and punishments that makes bad decisions challenging and good decision fun, breaking down big tasks into smaller, manageable steps, and, lastly: JUST. DOING. IT! ((Also, not being smart 🤣🤣))

I read this "do something principle" in Mark's blog years ago and it changed my life. I'm glad to see it in the video

I'm reminded of a quote by Charles Bukowski: "The problem with the world is that intelligent people are full of doubts, while stupid people are full of confidence." Not that I'm saying that you have to be stupid to get anything done, naturally. I'm just saying that when you're smart, you tend to second guess yourself and put things off by "studying" the matter as long as possible to feel like you're actually doing something. I have this problem myself.

Man your videos are building me piece by piece. Every video brings me one step forward, and don't worry, I'm starting to do, not just enjoy this self-help rush and then do nothing. You're currently the best, and most honest, for real.

I love this so much because I am myself a master procrastinator. I push everything off because I overthink it that doesn’t get me anywhere this video gave me a different insight about failing and how it’s not really considered a failure because you’ve tried and you’ve learned from the experience!

I’m not procrastinating, I’m in bed watching this video

Mark - That was a good clear and concise video with a lot of meat and no extra fluff. Your communication skills and authenticity are much appreciated. I will always make time to watch your videos.

Been putting off a lot of things in my life lately. This video really came at the right time. Every video has been a banger lately, Mark. Thank you.

Love seeing how you help people in live situations. It’s heartwarming to see a bit of kindness in this world…

that David Goggins alarm cracked me up 😂, stay hard stay hard 💪. Environment influences humans greatly 💯 %

I love that video! So motivating! Your "do something principle" has helped me a lot in the past and still does!

This is the final line of truth I needed to read. Thank you, Mark! "Every problem of inaction is ultimately a problem of emotion". I've got so many things to do on my fifo list, that it's just insane to think of it. And that is allways getting emontionaly in the way and stopping me.. So that finally is THE core reason, WHY I am procrastinating so often, yet I am successfull and could achieve so much more (selfemployed for 10 years allready). Thank you, Mark, from the depths of my dark and anxious soul for this golden line of truth. Only the best wishes to you!

I love what you are doing so much. The approach, the charisma, EVERYTHING!!

Really loving this new style of videos where you help and interact with other people ! The podcast style episodes are great as well, but these are definitely on a whole other level ! Keep up the good work Mark !

This felt like a trailer for Jiwon's story. Can't get enough MM helping people and I want to see more! 👍

This video hit differently. I've felt very stuck at work, and procrastination has been a major reason for it, coming out of the holidays. I feel like I can use a lot of this to move forward.

awww your advices are so clear, concise, positive. and the stories you tell to illustrate them is priceless. I feel like I have learned so much in just a few minutes. thank you a lot for sharing these tips, the time you take to do it , thank you !

This is exactly what I needed to hear right now. There are a few changes I wish for my life, including finally doing more for my business than building a fancy homepage and then dream of having success with it 😅

Booyah! Released a non-podcast video! Love this format. Packed full of content and only 11 minutes in length. Thank you 🎉

Mark love your work and love all the recent long form content! You're making a huge difference in the world and I'm so proud of you! Keep it going!

This is brilliant! I’ve been struggling with procrastination for over a year, and I haven’t managed to break the cycle;I just feel I can “get away with it”

I love it how you put environment as first. It truly is. Sadly it gets relegated to the middle of the list in most self-help videos.

My semester starts back up tomorrow, this came at a fantastic time

I was looking for something like this.. And I started my journey from yesterday! This video is gonna be my teacher. Will watch this video everyday! To remind myself. Journey is the happiness. Thank you Mark for making this video.

I have been doing the same thing as Jiwon since May 2022. I graduated with my associates degree, and I can't make up my mind on what to do next with my career. This is the best video for me, right now, in my life. This week hemp me immensely! Thank you!!! 🙏 😊

Thanks, Mark. I really appreciated this one. A lot of insights. Thanks a lot.

Hands down the best and most down to earth self-help content on Yt

I love that you used Jiwon’s story as a case study. It helps pin a story to each lesson! Thanks Mark🤩

This was an awesome video. I loved how he showed us how he helped her friend take actions and achieve her goals. Lovely effort Mark. Thank you.

Whenever I feel demotivated, or feel like giving up the grind and just waste my time, one of your videos pops up on my YT feed and it helps a lot. Thank you!

"not feel like doing it" yea you're so right 😂 as a content creator, there's always times when i hit that, even though i like what i'm doing. i usually playing online games when procrasinate. hmmm... so the point is, just "do something else" that still align with your goal, right? then, the motivation will be started when you take that action. okay, noted. i will try to avoid gaming when procrasinate, and do other stuff instead 😂 thank you for the video!

Great job Mark on trying to move people towards action! Great follow up video after the last one I’ve seen from you where you made this your goal

Hey Mark, If you could do this coaching video series (on international level apart from USA) just like for jiwon, you not only help/assist a little with lot of people's problems but also get to know a lot about the many countries cultures just like you said in the video you also end up helping/assisting lot of people' s problem (maybe like almost half the planet earth i guess) from various countries (especially from various cultures).

I NEED this STAY HARD alarm sound! That's so sick bro!

Love the editing and timing, spot on. The advise is also great!

a timely reminder for me to move. Thanks for this it was inspiring, convicting concise and a little uncomfortable but in a way that can be leveraged for good because once a goal is broken down into bite size pieces like you point out, suddenly the feeling to procrastinate is made to look smaller and smaller. we move

Been watching lots of your videos lately and have to say, that there's so much good advice and actually helpful views and points made! Great job and thanks a lot, man!

Great video! Not sure about the incentive take tho. I recall that Huberman says that you should avoid getting used to incentives every time you accomplish something. You can utilize the flipping coin method. If you win you get an incentive, if you lose you don't. The point is that internal motivation is the strongest drive for our actions, the best results come from enjoying the process of what you are doing. If you get used to get a reward you will be less motivated because you're doing that for external reasons. (I hope my english was understandable enoungh 😅)

because we are all Gen Z watching this (mostly) we expect gen z self-improvement content with stupid memes and shit. and I'm saying that being part of Gen Z. your content is so authentic it makes me want to laugh and do 100 pushups at the same time! I've read your book and it really helped me and is still helping me with social skills so I'm very grateful for everything you provide the world mark. thanks so much!

People with ADHD are prone to struggle with procrastination *because* it is, absolutely, a feelings thing. It is thought that their brains find it harder to work past and with the *feeling* of "not wanting to do it" because of the way they are wired. They find it more challenging to force themselves to focus on things that are not, in the moment, the most stimulating option ("I'm bored" or "this isn't urgent enough right now") Specifically it's the way ADHD impacts emotional regulation (and the dysregulation of the brain's dopamine reward/motivation system). A lot of the advice is universal, but it can be challenging! And people with brains that are far enough over on the spectrum to hit the 'clinical diagnosis' threshold will probably wrestle more with it, even as the same tips and principles to combat procrastination apply. (I do not have time to watch the vid right now; apologies if this is already covered). (Editing for clarity)

@jerryhartmann4654

It's so much worse than that. Because our dopamine systems don't work correctly, there is no satisfaction in a job well done. There is no reward, ever. I don't feel pride when I complete a project, even if it's something I'm really into, I'm just glad it's finally over.

The only real thing covered was perhaps environmental adjustments that make things easier for the target. Not an example used in the video but a goal to keep dirty clothes off the bedroom floor can be managed by changing your environment to have the dirty clothes hamper in the bedroom or bathroom rather than the laundry. Still no happy brain chemical rewards as such but less obstacles in the home.

how to know if a person has ADHD? I have severe procrastination issues

"Just do it. it's not big of a deal. Just by doing anything, you learn something."

You are changing my life Mark, thank you so much! Cheers from Brasil!

When I was 15, I only had one goal. To secure a hundred percent in my final exams. Yep, it was so silly and childish as anything, but that's something that had me all excited at that age. And I also had a good plan that had worked for many toppers before that. And I remember that was probably one of the most productive years of my life. I had a goal, and a reliable plan that could almost guarantee success. (Bad that the exams got cancelled due to covid later lmao.) After that, I lost the hold of everything because I had goals but no ways to achieve them. Like there was no one to tell me, do this and you'll achieve it. And in fact whoever did achieve those goals before me that I had aimed for, had started much earlier. So, that brought a sense of being too late in my mind. Demotivating af. Lost all my time procrastinating to think about it and plan everything for myself. I still don't have a lot of clarity about how can I achieve all that I want. And I keep procrastinating figuring out a way to it. Hope I do figure it out soon. 🙂

@M_SC

2 ways: 1)do research specifically into how to accomplish each goal. Of course you’ve tried already. Do more. Do something different. 2)do anything. See if it brought you closer or farther away, and proceed accordingly. Remember the children’s party game where the one kid looks for the hidden keys while the others yell “hot, cold”. The only way to fail this game is to stand still

@b-6870

​@@M_SCYep. I tried the first point already, in fact since the past 3 years, I've been in that loop. I tried searching for one clear way, like a clear path to everything that I wanna achieve. But the conclusion, that I know I realised way too late because of procrastinating all the time was only that there's no specific guaranteed way. It's like a lot of luck is involved there and doesn't matter how hard I or anyone tries, no one can figure out a plan that can guarantee success. And that only made me realise that real life is so different from schools and exams. There's no time table that can guarantee success. Real life is in fact like a chess game, where I can't plan all the moves in the beginning of the game, there's a lot that I will have to figure out as I keep playing. That requires me to be mentally alert and use my analysation skills everytime like we do before a nee move. It's the only way and there's no magical plan that I can blindly follow like a bunch of books for school exams. Tough realisation, but that's a fact and I have to accept it.
