Change is very gradual. There is a lot of talk in personal improvement sphere about these measurable changes you make in your life (I.e. not using your phone for 15, 30 and and then 6” min in the morning). This approach never worked for me. For me it’s more like try and fail, try again and fail, fail, fail, fail until one day I realize I have transformed from a person who dreaded doing a 20 min workout to being a person who runs 12 miles on a Saturday morning

Key takeaways on how to be happy in a distracted world 1. Practice stillness. Stillness is NOT idleness and nothingness. It’s about slowing down time, appreciating the little things, think about what truly matters, and be at a state of zen. 2. Don’t use your phone until at least 1 hour after you wake up. Also don’t look at the clock or your watch every second when meditating. 3. Don’t get too attached to your screen and looking and responding to emails the whole day. 4. Don’t listen to the if then statements in your head. Like if I get xyz I’ll become happy. When you do get xyz the happiness won’t last long. 5. Do things since you want to not because you want to get your parents to be proud of you. There’s no amount of anything that will make you feel better about yourself if you don’t feel good about yourself in the first place. 6. In order to be still Make sure your mind, body, and soul are all in check and taken care of 7. Don’t compare yourself with others. Stop negative thought patterns. 8. Deprecation is when you try taking away things or pushing yourself past your limits so when things actually get hard you know how to deal with it better. Preparation for a contingency Ex: putting yourself in a position where you’re not anxious about losing what you have because you know you can handle that thing without it. You’ll be better prepared when you don’t have something. More examples preparing for a bad review, your item not selling too well, or an angry email. 9. If you’re a person who is dependent on your current way of living and can only live that lifestyle and salary if everything goes south you’re more vulnerable to the swings of fate. 10. Enough isn’t weak or settling it’s actually an extreme form of power

"my quiet and still time is when I'm running" ...

Let it be swimming a few round before work, cycling after a hard day thru a wood or as you said running. It seems like the body is occupied enough so that the mind can concentrate on things you have to sort out for yourself ...

STILLNESS IS THE KEY ☺

things i learnt from this video: 1. stillness doesn't mean actually being still or idle, it's more of the moments that you experience no distractions and you are mentally/emotionally/physically connected with what you're doing. 2. happiness is fleeting. i've been struggling with this for a while now - being happy one day and being downright depressed the next. but hearing you guys talk about how nobody is happy all the time - it makes me realize that i shouldn't dwell on why i'm unhappy most of the time, but try to put that energy to productivity instead. 3. finding contentment really stems from knowing how much is enough. and knowing exactly what is enough for yourself and your happiness - that is powerful. thanks for such a thought-provoking interview, matt! i learnt more from this video than from a whole semester of philosophy class lol.

I often long for the days of the past. I have been working to put down my phone while watching tv or working. Also, I try harder to put it down before bed.

I found that the key is not walking away from the "problem" but rather facing it and finding ways to strengthen your stance to actually overcome and control it. Yes, I also closed my social media for about a year and a half, but I had to face it with a new mindset. That shit doesn't control me, I control myself in regards to it. Self control and self knowledge are the key to every problem. "You control the problem, the problem does not control you" and by deleting apps, it's somehow still controlling you. Get what I'm saying?

15 years ago, before smartphones took over the world, I cancelled cable for “more quiet”. I never anticipated how overwhelming phones would be. Mine is on silent most of the time, I get almost zero notifications, and I’m forced to be so self disciplined with when and how it gets used. Because, quiet. And also because, I apparently have either no self control or all of it. 😆 We are undeniably influenced by our environment. Which means we need to be in control of that environment even more today when so many more people have the ability to interrupt or influence us.

“You’ve earned it at birth, they just decided not to give it to you” - so true!

This was by far the best interview I've ever seen with Ryan holiday and I've been a fan of Ryan since before his first book on stoicism came out. Fantastic questions that provoked amazingly thoughtful answers.

This must be a dream when my favorite author and favorite youtuber are in the same place.

The discussion about "enough" reminds me of this Sterling Hayden quote- "What does a man need - really need? A few pounds of food each day, heat and shelter, six feet to lie down in - and some form of working activity that will yield a sense of accomplishment. That's all - in the material sense, and we know it. But we are brainwashed by our economic system until we end up in a tomb beneath a pyramid of time payments, mortgages, preposterous gadgetry, playthings that divert our attention from the sheer idiocy of the charade. The years thunder by. The dreams of youth grow dim where they lie caked in dust on the shelves of patience. Before we know it, the tomb is sealed. Where, then, lies the answer? In choice. Which shall it be: bankruptcy of purse or bankruptcy of life?"

And worried about my mistakes and future consequences. But then Ryan said, "you can't make people respect you, you can't make your parents proud of you... it's out of your hands." So true. So many things in life are out of our hands. We can fret and worry and be ambitious as we want, but if we continue to be driven by the approval of others, we will never be satisfied, fulfilled or happy. We need to stop doing things cause X person approves/disapproves, we should do things that align with our own goals and wants. Not to gain the approval of someone who will never be impressed no matter how much we do.

I've done one of his monthly challenges! They are good! Very hard but quitting addictions for example caffeine I'd easier than forcing yourself to do something(like going to gym 4times a week)

"it was never yours to win, you've earned it at birth and they've just decided not to give it to you" damn that hit HOOOME

You've advanced my way of thinking of "things". Thanks for sharing.

We are the same as our ancestors. Just with a bit more technology!

most people probably won't even the to the 35 min mark because they will be distracted by another video haha.

This channel is so enlightening. Amazing to be able to get this type of dialogue at no cost.

I keep coming back to this video over and over again

Thanks Matt and Ryan! I feel so privileged being able to listen in on these kinds of conversations.

There's only one thing better than Matt's content...His arms, like my guy teach me your ways.

He does actually talk about the importance of constant physical activities and what he does on one of his podcasts and I believe also in videos.

Let me just thank you for all the value you're giving us through KZread, Matt. Your videos constantly up themselves both in production value and content. Thanks!

This is a brilliant conversation. I feel like I’ve found a very thought provoking gift in this channel. Thanks Matt for having these conversations.

Wholeheartedly agree with this, and i'm glad you posted it on youtube. These are the people that need to see it most.I recommend going for a 5 or 10 min walk without your phone - it feels weird, but it's extremely refreshing.

Absolutely wonderful video! I love how Matt really lets the guests speak and does not cut them off prematurely!

I keep coming back to this interview whenever I feel like I'm falling off track

This book has changed my view and perspective on life in general. And so has this very resourceful interview! Thanks Matt. We really want more of Ryan's interviews sometime again with you, pleaaaseee...

I've never been able to watch 2 guys talk on a coach for 30 minutes. I was able to watch this with full attention no problem

I've read 2 of Ryan's books and this is my first time seeing him 😂 kinda trippy. awesome video matt, keep up the good work

I've experienced that feeling too 😵

That ending though 🤣 great content as always thank you for sharing

This is one of those videos that i come back to every few months. Definitely one of the best ones on your channel. Thank you for all you do!

“They have reduced all external noise , it’s the noise in here” something about that just really hit me

Ryan holidays book is really good and this interview was like icing on the cake. Thank you matt 🙏

Love it! I totally agree... having to decide what you will do everyday when you work for yourself is very exhausting! I will be making some rules and structure from now on and apply this to exercise, food, work and down-time. Thanks man

This is gold. Thank you both.

Being happy watching your video as I'm being distracted from the exam I have tomorrow

This is one of my fav interviews you ever had ! I also, strongly suggest you to invite Sadia from the channel Pick up limes, she is great and might help you with inner peace and mindful living, her content and edits are delightful as yours ! Her vibe is just ugh what you aim in life . I would to see you both collaborate ❤️🥺

This was awesome! Thank you so much for this immensely enriching content in the form of an informal conversation between two pals! Highly appreciated Matt 👏🏻

There arent really very many things that can comfort me at this stage in my life, but your videos always manage to. Heres from me and my anxiety and my depression. Thank you 😊

36 min THANK YOU GOD!!!!

Stillness is the essence of Life, even emotions are distractions.

This guy is one of the most brilliant minds and most accessible and most relevant that I have ever heard. Thank you!

Matt, your short videos are so helpful and the longer ones are always worth the extra time❤👍🏻 Thank you for all your conversations and words! You help keep me keeping myself going!

Thanks Matt!! Can you continue doing more long format like this?? 🙏💙 love it!

The key to happiness: Do your job, become good at it, try finding a job that you ike doing, learn ways to improve, *DON'T watch videos about someone telling you how to become happy*

Really needed to hear this conversation after a challenging week. Thank you for this video!

Watched every minute of this, absolutely loved this on every aspect I want to take on minimalism and I've been doing the same 30 day challenges you do such as my first one was cold showers for 30 days, so on and so forth but your voice and knowledge brings so much peace of mind In my life I feel like I learn so much

Same haircut. Same shirt. Same dreamy blue eyes. Different pants. I'm not sure what it means, but it means something. It definitely means something...

Nathan Folkman I read Seneca’s book about inner peace and the Encheiridion of Epictetus. The philosophical meaning of the clothing is ‘not to keep up with the Johnsons’ Am following Matt quiet a while now...Matt’s reason to lend one of his shirts is because the clean visuals. Tres simple.

That ending 🤣

Watching this interview made feel at peace today. And I was having a very, VERY, storming day inside my head. Thank you.

I'm glad I took the time to watch this. It gave me some really good perspective as I approach the end of the first year in my 40s. Thank you, Matt.

... moving from one thing to the next I clicked on another video JUST when you said that Felt embarrased and came back

The key to happiness is being young, having a buff body, a handsome face and quick mind like Matt. But I know we all have to deal with what we've been given. LOL

Your content makes me learn more about life. I just realize that already watched all of your videos and podcasts. Really a blessing. Cheers!

Absolutely loved this video! I was so deep into it that the 36 minutes just flew by. I just subscribed last week and have been watching a lot of your stuff. I wish I found your channel sooner! thank you!

Many christians don't understand the essence of praying, it's the stillness these two are talking about. I find it amuzing he didn't mention judaism or christianity, yet these preach and promote stillness all the time. Great video tho! Thanks for making this free, Matt!

I did the travel oh that would make me feel better thing and I learned that I was running away from my abusive home life so I relocated across the country and it didn’t happen over night but over the couple years since I have been feeling a lot better in staying where I am/working through mondaine things
