    If you have ADHD, DON'T start with your hardest task. If you do, 1 out of the following 3 will happen: you will get paralised for a long time, you will go into procrastination cycle or you will finish it and have no energy to do anything else. What to do instead? Pick 1 of your easiest tasks but not the easiest of all and do it. That win will give you encouragement to go bigger. Now check if you feels ready for the hardest task, if not, get an intermadiary level task and go for the hardest next. Get more courage with the easiest task. Unless you feel super motivated, always get a few wins before going for something big and try to break it down to easier stuff.

    Omg i have ADHD! Thank you so much for the tip! When i usually have to do a hard task i avoid the thought of accomplishing it, instead i focus on the timer going off and the reward that fallows (Example, doing math i set my timer for 25 minutes, i do the work but keep my attention in completing the 25 minutes of studying, this prevents me from the paralysis effect)

    @@ceyyro1844 ADHD is a disorder where the brain works different from "normal brains" (neurotypical). People with ADHD have issues with focus and self regulation including emotional regulation, the brain is also usually unable to work with the idea of long term reaward, so procratination is basically 2nd nature. We (I have ADHD) have issues producing and/or processing dopamine which is the brain chemical that produces that pleasure feeling of accomplishing something and motivating to do it again. So to do the worst task 1st takes a huge effort from someone with ADHD, much more than from a neurotypical and the reaward is unsuficient to keep going if the person is able to finish it. With ADHD the issue isn't just to get started, it's also to keep going because distractions have a bigger hold. But when we start building that motivation with smaller wins, we are usually able to go for the big task just fine. It's like having to cross a bridge to do and finish the task. Neurotypicals might have a couple of planks missing but they jump them and cross the bridge, but the person with ADHD has so many missing planks, they usually need to go to smaller bridges collect planks before going to the big one.

    5 steps to dopamine management 1.Awareness: understand all the furnaces u burn dopamine in 2.Elimination: only use dopamine in the furnace of purpose. Create environment where success is the only option 3.Timing: do the hardest thing first cuz Energy dwindles throughout the day 4.Rewards: live with intention, managing how dopamine enters your life. Eg to engage the default mode networks in brain 5.Recovery:rest end of day and week.

    Everyone does wake up with a full amount of dopamine.. where the disconnect is here, is thinking we’re all equipped with a standard quantity. Obviously, no one is identical externally or internally. Plus over time the things we do affect our baseline- someone healthy and happy will have a standard full amount while someone who neglects their sleep, diet, exercise, mental health, or physical health will have a different baseline. Where ever your baseline is, that is full for you. Just need to make changes so your mind & body can regulate itself back to a healthy baseline.

    Great video as always! But needs some changes for ADHD What applied to me (an ADHDer) No put downs, no performative masculinity, just affirmations of the importance of hard work, and powerful strategies to get there! :) --- How I adapt it: I need a win early in the morning so, I start with one very easy task before my hard task. For me, recently that's been writing a one item checklist to "make a list" and putting that on my nightstand every night. When I wake up, I have to consciously choose to make today worth something and complete the checklist. I don't put everything I have to do, just 3 or 4 items that would likely fall by the wayside and some steps to get there :)

    I like this overall message but it doesn’t truly consider the limitations of self motivation and purpose without having an expanded sense of being and belonging. The rejection of the father is not only painful and limiting, but it also betrays our intrinsic capacity and desire to form part of a larger life story. We can always create great stories for ourselves regardless of our circumstances, but adverse childhood experiences often turn stories into long monologues we share only with a select few.

    WOWOW. When you were telling this story I thought it was just some folk tale to try to inspire Chinese kids to work hard. Your father is incredible. And so are you, you're just like him.

    He works at the Fed. …He learnt that State coercion and aggression are the path to wealth. …’Tis an illustrative tale of immorality inculcated in childhood, and how it persists absent moral philosophy and reflection. Thanks for sharing it.

    I swear when I was listening to the story of the 2 brothers I thought it was some old story about a famous leader or prominent Chinese figure. Part of me even thought it was fiction. I was in complete shock when you said that was your father.

    That tip with merging the hard tasks with rewards is so true... the only time of day I allow myself to watch TV is when I'm eating turkey and rice (which I usually can't stand since I've eaten it so much) but linking it to the "TV time" almost makes it taste better

    Hey man, thank you for this amazing video. It was impacting and motivational to me. I rely a lot with your father's experience. My life was obviously not that hard, but I had his same mindset. Thank you for dissecting his path, it made me more empowered and proud of my origin and motivated to keep going to help other people. You did a really good job! Congrats

    Absolutely loved the video. I especially liked the furnace analogy. It got me thinking back to some more Zen and Taoist roots. If we have two furnaces in the cold, one of waste that doesn't last long and one of purpose that's farther away but burns for a big while longer, and we need to stay warm, we of course will choose the 2nd option. But what if we get someone who doesn't need the furnaces at all? What of the person who's used to the cold, even enjoys it? I wonder what they represent? Maybe something akin to a sage, a buddha, a jesus figure? A Nietzschean uber Mensch? It's fascinating.

    Key Notes / Takeaways: • Be aware of & write down all bad habits that waste dopamine. • Eliminate all bad habits / dopamine wasters to create an environment where success is the only option, and hard, productive things become your source of pleasure. • Utilize dopamine first thing in the morning. Hardest tasks first. • Pair rewards with hard tasks to rewire your brain to crave doing those hard tasks. • Lack of rest leads to reduced efficiency, poor mental health, and low dopamine power meters. Rest up sufficiently at the end of every day and every week.
