@Risa J I only read half of this book... why? Because I forgot it in the seat pocket when I flew across the Atlantic... And you know what? When I realized this I was so HAPPY... Why? Because I knew that someone was going to find it and get to read it and I felt nothing but joy. I came to this site so I could buy it and finish the last half, but I already know enough about this book and this author ..... to rate it 5 stars... I'd give it 11 if there were 10. It's so exciting to be finding that the path to a place I'd once visited temporarily, as if on a vacation, was actually a place that I can now live. The only thing more exciting than that is wanting to share this discovery with so many others... I'm risking becoming a pain on Facebook talking about this author... He is full of Humility and backs away from any notion that he or anyone can do unto any other. This is a Process that only you can take on for you. Daniel Anderson is a guide for you to enable your own journey to a place that is so incredible you'll be awed and probably even suffer a wave of fear that you might ever loose what you gained it is so precious. Thankfully he teaches us how to transcend that kind of fear so we are able to recover from it! If you want to gift people you love... his books would be a way to accomplish that and, if they are not ready to read them, they might give them to someone who would... they are truly a gift to the world. p.s. name of this book is "kit for emotional stability" by Daniel Anderson

No fancy graphics, just Mel and her life and real examples. She's very good at using anxiety energy to get her point across, I think alota ppl treat all anxiety as bad (as opposed to just over-anxiety). I suffer from it at times, but breathing exercises are great.

"Action leads to motivation" This is so true! Two weeks ago I forced myself to stop procrastinating (after years and years...and years of trying) and started being productive. I hated it at first but after 3 days of changing bad habits and doing other things other than just being on the internet I started to LOVE the feeling of satisfaction I got everytime I did some hard work. I really feel like I can do anything, after two weeks! I'm never going back to the dark mindset I was in before. I'm enjoying life now and I'm really excited about the future. I know I have a long way and it's not easy but this is the new me. You just need to experience both feelings (feeling of disappointment after you do something to screw yourself and the feeling of satisfaction you get when you do some hard work that you know is beneficial for you) I can assure you that you will choose that feeling of satisfaction everytime.

"All day long you have ideas that could change your life, could change the world, could change the way you feel. And what do you do with them? Nothing!" She is so right! I needed to hear this. I love this statement now!

That's awesome!

The problem is, the school system actually destroys this part of the mind for many people. We're taught for years on end, to stop, think, analyze, ruminate... but it turns out we have intuition and gut impulses that can allow us to be spontaneous and confident in what we do... and not always see our failures in the form of an F or 40%. We're taught to work our butts off, then take long breaks. We're taught to follow a routine and do things that don't interest us for hours and hours to make some number. So when it's all done and we're in the real world, many of us simply don't know HOW to go about even framing our mind for this way of thinking. You're lucky if you had great parents, teachers or friends that fostered this part of you, and to people like this, it's easy. It's as simple as just doing it, and they don't understand why people procrastinate or have analysis paralysis. I used to be a very creative and spontaneous child, and by the end of high school I was just another robot. It has taken me years to even realize what happened to me, and now I'm a few years deep into trying to find my natural human side again. I know she has a small amount of time to get across a big topic, but for talks like this to be really effective IMO, they have to share a type of detox method with tangible things to do. Mindfulness meditation is so crucial for many of us. You can't be happy or operate in the "now" if you're constantly future tripping or thinking about your past. Again, the school system gears you to think of the future. Graduation will save you. Post-secondary will save you. Work will save you. Making tons of money will save you. Finding love will save you. Learn to live in the present, and learn to calm your mind so that the natural river of thought can flow without obstructions caused by everyday mundane tasks or negative thoughts. That's how you'll find out what you really want, and what to do to get it. Social media and pornography are killers. Bad diets, lack of exercise, and lack of PLAY are killers. Many people don't even realize how important it is to to PLAY. Play catch, play at a gym, play with friends. When we think of the road to accomplish something major, we think that ALL that time we'll have to be working and it's daunting. Because that's what it was like in school. But in reality, if you learn to work a bit, then play a bit, you can continue on the road to your goals with a freer mind. Anyway, I don't have all the answers, and I'm in the struggle myself. But I just thought I'd share with everyone some of the things I've come to learn. I see a lot of comments saying that it's easier said than done. And really, I agree. Very few speakers are tackling the tangible everyday things that are plaguing the mind needed to even be receptive to these types of speeches.

SickChip I'd say just make sure to take time out to hang with friends, play outside, do things you love... don't just sit around at the computer all day or over study. Don't cram or do all-nighters, try to set a certain amount of work time, and then some YOU time. It's really tough, I know it is. There's just so much work to do. If I could do it all over again, I'd know that I don't want to be a brain surgeon or engineer and just settle for moderate marks instead of over achieving in everything. And instead of thinking that school is my only source of education, I'd educate myself in LIFE. Talk to all sorts of people, pursue my passions, learn an instrument. Cause after high school the world is much different. There are more fulfilling things than grades or huge paychecks. Follow what you love because society is a trap. I think Mark Twain once said, "Don't let school get in the way of your education". Great quote. All the best, my friend. Try to keep that little fire alive in you, don't let the system take it from you. If it means getting that sleep and only studying half the material, or failing a quiz or two because you went for a bike ride instead, do it. Trust me, the world won't end. It'll only do the opposite. :)

While im attending college now I think school does a horrible job in some areas because school can brainwash you to think this is all you need, Go to school and you are fine. Nope, you aren't, school is just a bonus. Many parents are undoubtedly having way too much faith in school, they ignore their children more because they think they are taken care of in school, as if it is the answer to everything. In reality, you can have all the knowledge in the world but without a heart for something it doesn't matter worth shit. Parents need to think before having kids.

I watched this video about 6 years ago but nothing seemed to click. I probably wasn't ready to accept it then. Just got around to reading your book. It is so refreshing to see how much you have included the audience in your book. Its probably the first book that I have read as such. In just one day of having starting to read and not even finishing it I have managed to do things that I have been putting off for years. The only regret is why have I not done this earlier

Awareness is the way to freedom and life. Pay attention and observe the present moment, how can you enjoy the moment if you're not in the moment? Drop your illusions, opinions, concepts, prejudges, labels, expectations, drop them all and wake up. Happiness lyes within you, you don't need to be rich, you don't need to be successful, you don't need friends, you don't need anything to be happy because a human being's natural state is happiness. Look back to when you were three years old, where was your happiness coming from? Friends? A career? Success? Money? Power? No. Your happiness is within YOU. Wake up out of the condition you were put in. Again, your happiness is within YOU.

I pressed the like button when she said..”I’m sure you convinced yourself that the thing you want you’re fine not having it”..that’s soooo true

What I gathered from this video: 1. "You are never gonna feel like doing it." So just do it now. 2. When you get the idea to do sth, stop thinking and do it within 5 seconds. 3. You gotta be your own parent. Force yourself to do the things you don't want to do. 4. Don't ever hit the snooze button on your alarm. (I used to do that, but just felt more tired after sleeping 10 minutes longer again and again) So, really. Don't hit the snooze button and just rip away the blanket, swing your feet into your slippers and start your day. 5. Take a walk outside right now. (which btw I did, was planning on it anyway but glad I did it earlier than planned)

5 second rule - when you have an impulse, you must take physical action within 5 seconds, or your mind will hit the emergency brake (stop you from doing it/talk you out of it). So, the next time you have an impulse to do something (something positive of course), count down from 5 to 1 and then do it! Take action.

Now, I'm trying to study for a certification but I keep putting it off bc of how dreadful it is to study consistently for it for a YEAR because that's how long it could take on average. I am average. This talk helped me realize the motivation and why is the contributing factor to all my growth... I just remembered it thanks to this talk. Thank you.

Most presenters are so focused on their material or themselves they fail to remember they are presenting to people.

All the times I listened to Tony and nothing clicked, then I watched this from 11 years ago and Bamn! Glad I stumbled across this

What a fantastic speaker I’ve been listening to her last few years and came across this old talk and was fascinated by her stage performance and delivery . Goo Mel Robbins love you!!!

Having worked in both mental health and philosophy for a while now, there's a lot with this video that's right, and a few things that make me wonder. -- She's absolutely right that people often do tell themselves they're doing fine when living an unexamined life. Kierkegaard wrote extensively on this; people often do whatever societal messages tell them they ought to do, then reach a point of dread when they start to wonder if they've really lead the life they wanted all this while. It's not true for everyone of course. -- On the other hand, it's important to discern what you have control over, and what you don't. Some of her examples are things a person may genuinely need to find peace with (and thus, just be "fine"). Mother's never going to change? It's not your job to change other people to fit your liking, so for this, you do need to be fine. Your kids might really be harmed by a divorce depending on the situation, so it might actually be best to stay married and sleep in different beds. If you lost your job and can barely pay your bills, it might actually be hard to get another job. Straining and struggling against these things under the impression that if you just struggle hard enough, you can change them, is only going to lead to greater suffering. "Have strength to change the things you can, grace to accept the things you cannot, and wisdom to know the difference." -- Calculating the odds of you being alive sounds inspirational, but there's no causative relationship between odds and the state of being. Odds are calculated after the fact. If I flip a coin, we could talk about the odds of it being 50/50 on heads or tails, or the odds that I would, on this day, be standing there, flipping that particular coin, after all the world events throughout human history have transpired, bringing us to these astronomical numbers that may make us feel like we're almost the center of the universe. We don't then consider that literally every mundane thought and act can also fit those same odds. But if this makes you feel inspired, then go for it. -- What it takes to inspire change, and the science behind why people procrastinate, is more complex than it's being made to sound here. What works for one person might not work for another. It's simply flawed to say "you're never going to feel like it". For some people, sleeping on a decision, or waiting a week, is really all it takes, and then they definitely feel like it (I'm one such person). For others they may need a commitment device, which is a sort of cue that people create for themselves to change or initiate a behavior (like putting a quarter into a jar each time you use profanity). For others, a simple act of initial determination, such as the speaker describes - getting up 30 minutes earlier and waking up immediately one single day - may be enough. Most people will, after that one day, fall back into the same routine, if other changes and commitment devices aren't set up as part of a holistic structural change. -- Building on the above point: "Do you think anyone who needs to go on a diet ever feels like it??"

+Athena Brown, you certainly had to be a philosopher to critique her ideas as much as you did. I think the reason you disagree with some of her ideas is because some were brief and simplified that they may not have conveyed as intended. For example, "you are never going to feel like it". I think this depends on how a person is wired, or the importance. I know some elite athletes who admit they never feel like training but they train even when they are sick - winning inspires them. I wake 5am to go the gym, not once do I ever feel like going, but I go any - I want to be healthy so I go. when I used to train gymnastics, I would train even when in pain, I wanted to get good. So, me, and these athletes can relate to this - if it matters, the "why" inspires, otherwise go by emotions. winning feels good, but doing what it takes to win can sometimes suck - some of us would endure to win and I think this is what she meant in saying "you are never going to feel like it".

That's a great post Athena - I agree with what you said; though I did take away quite a few good things there were a couple points I disagreed with too - as you mentioned - thanks

You and her sound like a lost version of Choice Center in Vegas. Whenever one has TRULY examined their life they take inspired action. They are driven. You'd be surprised how often you feel like it when you're making lunar landings. Wanting to examine one's life is always good but few do yet think they have. Most everyone does either a self-directed version of it(books, lectures, seminars, and other spectator types of learning) or they do a more interactive version of examining their life but it's not experiential learning so it's never ingrained. People can read 50 books about blind spots(physically or mentally) and never know where theirs are yet they can drive around for just a few days and discover them all. If self-directed examination made any lasting difference then the planet could just listen to some Eckhart Tolle audio book and we're all in harmony but it doesn't work for the same reason you can sit on the beach for years(inside your comfort zone) and read every book and watch every documentary about the ocean and still not know the ocean except on some safe theoretical level.

Too little content for a 20 minute speech and too much showmanship but those little points are important. I am writing this for you guys so that you need not watch the whole video: 1) You will NEVER feel like doing what is needed to be done to achieve what you want. 2) So, FORCE yourself. 3) Next morning, set your alarm clock 30 minutes earlier and then wake up against your will to go back to bed. This is the physical experience of activation energy you need to force yourself. 4) Your problem is not idea, it is your inaction. If you want to do something with an idea, do it within next five seconds( example- write it down, text it etc) If you don't, your idea will die in next 5 seconds. That's pretty much it!

+M Hossain There is one more - if you want to do something, find someone who already did that and copy it. That's actually a good advice.

+M Hossain Thanks! Didn't really care to watch it because of the excessive theatrics and was looking for this comment.

Mel Robbins is the best

Inspiring, love it! And so true... sometimes, we need to force ourselves, is not going to happen because X reason, is going to happen because I want it and I'm going to push myself every day until I get it, and then, I'm going to keep finding something else, brilliant talk.
