We have been allowed to do manned missions onto the planet via mini shuttles on the station, though not allowing to leave without safety equipment, preventing harm to others. Though my mental health remains absolute, people who deny these safety precautions are testing my patience towards others. There has even been a ongoing conflict between the Ukraine station and Russia station about how "Russia is rightfully taking back their ship", seeing how Russia station is going economy and socialy, it's pathetic really. This conflict is drawing out every western station bisness including fuel of our pods, causing inflation.

Even then, Addiction A*'s pull is too strong for my ship currently, so I'm slowly drifing away into the singularity.

If your employer (as a CS-related worker) uses Unix on its servers, why make things complicated for yourself by NOT using Unix?

Being positive and productive during a lockdown is extremely important because extended isolation, especially in an unchanging setting, often leads to depression, anxiety, and suicide. It is so hard to find a reason to keep going when you are repeatedly met by the same room(s), little social contact, little freedom to explore or see the outside world. It's even worse if you're one of the many people who has been put out of a job, or who is now trapped in a home with someone abusive, or if you already struggled with a mental illness. Good health, routines, personal time, and projects that give you purpose are all essentials to help combat a terrible situation like extended isolation due to a pandemic. You don't want to be a statistic

@CommandoDude well CGP Grey has much time like us, as such he may have had more time to work on videos, thus this.

The four stations are 1. The Sleep Station: This is where you go to sleep do not distract yourself from sleeping by using technology instead of sleeping. Go to sleep at a set time for a set amount of hours. 2. The Creativity (School/Work Station): This is where you get things done! Focus on what you need to do, do not get distracted by mixing the relaxation station with your work station. No unrelated KZread videos when doing your work you need to do. 3. The Fitness Station: This is where you keep your physical self in shape by doing bodyweight exercises or hypertrophy training (working out and lifting weights to get those sweet sweet gains) if you have the equipment. 4. The Relaxation Station: This is where you keep your mental self in shape my taking your mind away from everything else and just focus on relaxing and doing things you like. Playing video games, eating, watching KZread videos, reading, and etc. Again set boundaries between each station and make sure not to cross them. Crossing stations (mixing stations together) is a slippery slope since it can destroy the effectiveness of each individual station! That was my summary of the video I hope you all enjoy! :D

I wish I saw this before quarantine ended. My mental and physical health spiraled down into nothing. I didn't do any schoolwork, I couldn't think straight, and I felt completely alone. Now, after all that, I am completely different, like a part of me was stolen. My personal advice would be: if we have to isolate ourselves again, do all the things Grey says in this video, like I should've done months ago.

As if I’ll isolate myself again.

this video was my wake up call when the pandemic started, going on a downard spiral, declining health and lethargic to my studies. Who knew being alone could do that to a person. After realizing that with this video, I decided to take on the mission: "To return better than you left." Seperated everything into zones in my room and home, fixed my bad habits and schedules, took up Enduro MTB as exercise, eventually a competitive one and losing weight, focused on my studies and plans for the future more, learning life skills and improving my social skils by a lot. Without this video recommended to me I might be in worse shape than before or even worse, thanks Grey.

This was posted a year ago (exactly), when the pandemic was just starting. Back then, the videos that became "viral" were about handwashing. This video is far more important, and could have been beneficial to a lot more people. This deserves at least 10 times as many views.

Edit: should also add that time/routine is a great way to divide up mental states. Now is work time... Now is exercise time... etc...

a couple years on and whenever i need to do just about anything i come watch this video because it's the one thing able to convince me to turn my phone off, turn my music off, and just focus. I've had adhd my entire life and this *still* is the closest I've got to beating it

This made me realise that I needed an actual creative station. So: From "I don't have the space" to "what do I tear down" and beyond! I used to have one, but it was reassigned to home office use in 2020, and the attempt at dual use failed, but silently.

So it seems there are a lot of people here who are already in a dark place and are going "well I'm already depressed and apathetic I can't get motivated to exercise" and the "non-optional" part seems more like intimidation than encouragement. CGP Grey says, "PRIME with the physical". If he'll allow me to elaborate on that: ANYTHING BETTER THAN ZERO. What this means is, don't berate yourself because you can't go from an amorphous blob of CheezyChips to doing 3-hour HIT workouts. Mark off a place in your spaceship (or just designate a "Sacred Wristband of Exercise" if you live in a closet, there's no excuse) and start with. . . something. One push-up, maybe, or whatever you can manage. ONE. Of something you can do. That's it. That's your starting point. When the Physical gauge is at zero, 0.00001 is still better than zero. ANYTHING is better than zero. If the next day all you can still manage is one, that's fine. Do it again. Do exactly one push-up/sit-up/jumping jack/whatever. Next day, do it again. If you're feeling up for it, try two! Or stick to one if that's all you can manage. Anything is better than zero. If you betray yourself and forget, don't worry -- next day, do what you can, even if it's just one again. It's still better than zero. Breaking a poisonous cycle is infinitely harder than climbing a slope when you have momentum. So that first whatever is enormous. Just the very act of ritualizing exercise, no matter from where you start, is meaningful. It's the start that leads to progress. So spend THREE SECONDS to do that one thing, and then pat yourself on the back for having accomplished it. Why not? It's better than what you did yesterday! Anything better than zero.

But sometimes you can't. That's why it exists in the first place. There's a lot friction involved before you get that momentum going.

@jadoei13

Add to that that not doing it for a day doesn't mean you failed at that goal you might have set. Instead of seeing it as a streak, see it as a percentage of times that you should've done it. That way you don't fail when you miss a day, because that can be discouraging. Once stopped because you failed, it is surprisingly easy to not try again. When using something along the lines of % of days that you wanted to do something, it dropped a bit, but you can make it go up again, you haven't failed at your goal and there is an easy way to make it go up again.

The visualization is godlike. Because spinning the ship by keeping the core running will generate artificial gravity. So you will end up in disorder if your physical and mental health is bad, because there will will no gravity. So the disorder is pictured by the abscense of Gravity which does make a lot of sense in my opinion. Also if there is no gravity then it will be harder to get the core running again, which also translates to real life.

Congratulations once again on the great video, Grey!

This is honestly the best youtube video i have ever watched. This single video has helped my mental health more than any therapist in this entire world. I come back to it every time im feeling down and out and every time it gives me a new perspective on things and forces me to get back on my feet. Thank you so much for this, CGP Grey, may God bless you for this video.

SPACESHIP YOU General Rules 1. Set boundaries-- allocated areas for specific tasks (eg. bed for sleeping only) 2. Respect the boundaries-- do only what task the area is meant for. (eg. Relaxing only on the couch) 3. Don't stop, just keep going -- even if there are lapses in discipline. After all, self-improvement is a long journey. You Comprised of Mental and Physical which work in tandem to keep you functioning Both influence each other, if physical increases, mental will as well but the converse is also true Boundaries (CaESaR if you will, CESR) 1. Exercise - Great place to get momentum and power up the physical aspect 2. Sleep - Have a regular routine. Wake and sleep at similar times. When this is out of whack, time you'll lose track! 3. Relaxation - Got to make sure it doesn't creep into the other domains. Do what you enjoy only at the designated location 4. Creation -Could be anything really, coding, cooking, learning. Just keep yourself occupied with something you find meaningful.

Only now, after months of struggling with anxiety during + after the pandemic, do I feel hope for my situation. Thank you for this video, you’ve given me the tools to change my life for the better :)

I'm gonna jurnal like this to help me remember my path

One trick that really needs to be mentioned: if there is some sort of breakdown with the different zones like no longer being creative in the creative zone, then change the room layout to start over. Before the pandemic, I noticed I wasn't very attentive at the desk I use to do school work on. So I moved the location of that desk and it made getting into the research mindset a lot easier.

I found this, as well. My work gave us computers so we could work remotely. Initially I was using a not-great table for the keyboard & monitor. Then I was given a nice computer desk & chair by my parents, and my draw to the work increased BIG TIME. Now I look forward to sitting down to work, and an actual computer desk creates grounded structure (for me) for doing computer-based production.

I basically just game all day and watch videos I realize this is destroying my mental and physical health but I don’t want to put effort in to fix it I’ve already dug the hole too deep to get out I know if I ask for a ladder it would be easier but I decide not to

@@bobus5681 You may think that but it will make this whole expirence a whole lot easier if you try to get yourself out of that hole.

I was deemed to be an "Essential Employee", so still had to go out into the pandemic every day, despite everything. I would have LOVED to have been locked down!

I got through the entire video completely fine. Not remotely emotional. Then Grey says "complete the mission. Come back better than before. See you on Earth, Captain" and I spontaneously start crying. What the heck is wrong with me? 😅
