You know you have to have good hygiene and grooming. You know you have to earn money. You know you have to do your laundry or take out the trash. Take this line of thinking and apply it to every crappy or hard part of life, and you will grow stronger. I know this is way easier said than done. I'm still in the same aimless boat as you. But that's what I've gathered from this line of wisdom. It's the same principle as "pick yourself up by the bootstraps" but much less condescending and it's not particularly about becoming a hustler, but rather becoming a doer.

"One uncomfortable thing at a time." I'm trying to stop complaining. My husband is great, but housework is not his strong suit. It's easy for me to complain about what didn't get done or how much I have to do. It's easy for me to get upset with him over every little mess. It's not easy for me to swallow my feelings and tell him at a more appropriate time how I'm feeling. I started doing dishes and he came over and offered to take over. I don't like when he only offers to do something just because I start doing it. If he wanted to help, he could've already started them. So I insist on doing dishes. In the past I would do it to be passive aggressive. This time, I had no intent on being manipulative. I finished the dishes. I calmly said I wanted time to myself. I sat with him and admitted I was really frustrated. I talked through my feelings instead of exploding and saying a bunch of things I don't mean. It took a lot of willpower. My body wanted the release of yelling at my husband. I had to resist. I'm done being a nag. I'm done being critical.

I'm stuck in a dilemma. For all my life, I basically did everything to "not disappoint others", with this habit coming from academics and my parents. Never wanted to disappoint them, so I studied to make them proud. Yet, as time passes by they seem to care less and less about my current grades (since they're already so used to seeing it), and expect more from me in other things (like math competitions and whatnot). So now that one of the main reasons I've been constantly studying and keeping my grades up is gone, what the hell do I do? I'm not proud of myself for achieving those grades. I know my parents have worked hard in their childhood to get where they are now, and I know they just want the best for me, but with all this newfound"freedom" they've just handed to me (and the fact that they handed my life and all its responsibilities back to me), there's still a little creature on my shoulder telling me to do x to be more productive and y to be better than person A even when I try to relax. Do I get out of my normal zone, and be one to disappoint my parents and basically destroy their past image of me, all for the sake of some peace of mind? Or do I keep continuing the same path I'm on, knowing it brings me tiredness and fatigue trying to keep on going, and hardly ever having time for myself and my wants?

This will be the last video I’ll watch before I start entering pain zone. Bless everybody who takes his words to heart and bless those who don’t. I wish you many highs and few lows and for you to come out on top of it all stronger than ever. Just gotta get out there

No one is better than 99%. We all have our own lives with our own goals, and everyone will end up in the 1% by some measurement. Trying to measure people's success in life with arbitrary things like money is like trying to measure waves with a ruler. Yes, money is necessary for modern day life, but after a certain point it becomes excessive and loses value. The same is for other metrics, you only need a baseline to succeed. Anyone who says you're inferior or worthless is already beneath you as a person, as they see you as above them in status, whether that be in skill or money or something else.

Best video I've ever seen on this. It's not overloaded with 'I feel your pain' type emotion. The guy keeps it light and simple with a touch of humour. A sign of a great doctor. I feel better already 😊

U sir here are preaching pride that is giving a sense of feeling that the viewer should be better than others and look down on them

This video made me feel a lot better.ive been struggling mentally for a while now. Thinking I'm a failure,looser, ect. I haven't had the easiest life and as such, I started off "low of the totem" so to speak. This video, and another video I stumbled on by chance has really opened my eyes to my own processes. I do all three of these steps almost everyday without even realising it. And thinking back on my life in the last 9 years, I've done a lot and am projecting to do a lot more!

minor pet peeve: illustrating "getting ahead of 99% of people" as a person being on top of the bell curve. Also, I'd love to have an empty gym. Does anybody really live in that beautiful utopia where you get gyms or pools to yourself?

Yes! I recently went through a lot of “losses” that I decided to treat as learning experiences. In the span of a month, I went through a breakup with my best friend, got in a car accident which totaled my car, stopped talking to my mother, and lost my grandmother to Alzheimer’s. All of those things taught me something about myself and life. Instead of going out and buying a new car right away, I decided to start taking the bus. Now I’ve just bought my own bike and I take that to work instead of a car. I’m getting so much more exercise in with that alone. This year is my year of self improvement!

Dude that’s so awesome! So happy to hear that 🎊

I love this. A fantastic mix of comedy and excellent practical advice.

This is fascinating. I recently delved into an audiobook "To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth about Moving Others" by Daniel H. Pink and, no kidding, he actually sets up a study where, in a class where kids are learning how to better negotiate, one group is told to aim for improvement, and the other group? Is told to aim for discomfort. The second group *way* outmatched the first in improving their skills, so I think there is a lot of credit to discomfort leading to improvement... otherwise known as the age-old adage "pain is gain". But the way this is laid out in three concise and easy to understand levels has really expanded my understanding of this topic. I have been rigorously chasing discomfort for awhile, but I feel like chasing PAIN is galaxy-brain level compared to what I was doing. Incredibly exciting and inspiring stuff. Honestly, now that you've laid it out, I can't believe I didn't make the connection myself, but it's so clear in hindsight. Thank you. It's time for me to go get my butt kicked some more!

Hi, chronic pain survivor here. This is decent advice, but I think it's equally important to be mindful of not seeking pain for pain's sake. Pain at the gym can be a sign of pushing the edges of your limits a little farther out, but it's just as likely to be a sign you left those limits in the dust and you're actively doing harm. The same is true for any other realm, the ER emotional pain can be a great way to stay motivated and feel connected with others but it's just as likely to create severe burnout and more serious mental health problems. Pain doesn't equal pain, so be careful with it and always seek the help of a professional even if just to check in. There's a reason professional dancers never really stop taking classes, we need our teachers to keep us from destroying ourselves. ❤

this is a good point clarifying that the discomfort, anxiety, and pain that he advises are the kinds that come with rejecting what's bad for us + when seeking, reaching for what's good. besides keeping it simple, we should definitely be mindful to not over-extend our energy/body despite good intentions. it's a concept meant for personally adjusted application for sure :)

I felt a huge difference in the kind of pain at the gym at age 20 vs age 40. At age 20 you usually can do reps until failure so it's easy to get that good burn. At age 40 you feel like if you do too many reps you'll snap a tendon or wreck a shoulder or something. Some pain is constructive and some is definitely destructive. Aging really forces you to swallow your pride and accept humility.

Wow, great video. Pain is gonna happen either way, and being able to face the pain head-on, instead of trying to avoid it, might be the best way to not only gain inner strength, but also to succeed anyway. Seek out doing the challenging thing. It's painful to wake up on time, it's painful to clean your room, it's painful to go through rejection, but you need that to get ahead. Your either in control over where you're going, or you lose control and just have things happen to you randomly. The other stuff you said were good. Lately, I've approached challenges with hesitance, but maybe this video is a great way to get me to be more headstrong and eager to fix the challenges that come my way.
