Doug Patterson True. It's called productive procrastination or functional procrastination. Not Q2 (Eisenhower matrix), but the healthier side of Q4, more bordering Q2, for sure

I am usually a motivated person, its the people and society around me that dehumanizes and demotivates me.

Quick summary: 3 Questions: Do you believe you can do it? (have the time, knowledge and training) Will it work? (takes education - why this might work) Is it worth it? (motivation) If yes to all three, you feel competent. (training vs education: training involves feedback) Choice - be mindful: be a success seeker rather than failure avoider, i.e. see things as opportunities rather than requirements Community - support, have each other's back; cookie story :)

Sam Postman Dude some people can get overwhelmed, and sometimes having a summary after you watch something is also helpful to organize thoughts and main points. Which is why most academic textbooks have summaries after each or so chapter. Someone putting a summary doesn’t automatically mean it’s only for people who don’t want to watch the video.

I needed this video. I've been waking up every morning feeling terrified of the tasks that lay ahead of me. I'm 29 and in the second year of my masters degree. I woke up terrified because I felt I had little competence, little faith in positive consequences. I wasn't sure if what I was going to do was going to be worth it AND I felt that I was doing it all alone. It's no wonder I woke up scared! This talk taught me what I needed to feel self-motivated! If I don't have the competence I need to seem help and resources to help me learn. I can find faith in positive consequences AND rediscover my own reasons (why doing this is going to be WORTH it). And this morning, I already realized that I felt so much better when I acknowledged that it's not just me on my own doing this. I am surrounded by peers and teachers in every part of my life and I need to ask them to help me to achieve the outcomes by supporting and teaching me). This knowledge changes the way I experience my degree. I so desperately needed this. With this wisdom, I can wake up tomorrow not scared and anxious but confident and excited! Thank-you!

I feel ya. Going through the same thing for many years myself. Don't feel bad if you can't get yourself motivated, because it's not your fault you were dealt such a bad hand. I don't know if this is helpful, but for me the thing I have to remind myself to work on is to break my habit of isolating myself. Even if an interaction feels pointless, uncomfortable or fake, it's still valuable because it's a form of practice that makes it much easier and less scary to find and retain a "real" connection in the future. If you're not talking to anyone IRL, you might find a sense community in chat rooms, forums or online RPGs to name a few (or even writing to complete strangers on YT). I also hope that forcing myself to leave the house helps, because grocery shopping might not make me feel less alone, but it makes me feel more like a part of society.

In tears, because this helped me understand why I haven't been able to be my studious self since I was 17, I've had this horrible negative reinforcement that was instilled on me by a chemistry professor who was ruthless and cared little for students. The events that occurred after this class this situation only repeated itself through my young adulthood. Yet in different forms to a point, it became physically and mentally distressing. It's hard for me to sit alone in my room with my laptop and a long list of assignments. It never fails, the overwhelming feeling that I'm wasting my time because somehow my efforts are futile. Now I know more truth about what happened to me and how I can become me again. Thank you for this message

@ThePhysics1234

+Uncle Drew I am going to tell you now something very simple but it might be hard for you to understand because you need to experience it but it could change your life. CHANGE YOUR STATE! And by state i mean psychological state. Your perspective on life is pessimistic because you psychological state is tuned at that energy/frequency/state. Both of us can perceive the same reality (for example night moonlight sky) but we will interpret it differently depending on our state. If you are optimistic you will interpret reality as "what a beautiful moonlight", if you are depressed you will interpret "what a black night, black as my life, i'm gonna kill myself" It is like a radio frequency your radio is tuned to. You only hear waves that are tuned to that frequency even though there are other radio waves on air. You are simply tuned to a "pessimistic frequency" The point is , when you are in a certain state, all other states and interpretations seem like lies or fiction, like fictional reality. What is real reality then? What is the true state in which you can interpret reality as it is? There is none. Its like asking what is the frequency in which you can hear all the radio stations. The state in which you spend most time becomes your reality! Let this sink into you. The big thing is: YOUR VALUES CHANGE AS YOUR STATE CHANGES. You might feel nothing is worth fighting for, but if you witness a car crash suddenly the most important thing is to help the person from the crash. Few months after that you might think again nothing is worth fighting for. What has changed? Your state did, because when you witnessed the crash, your focus changed, your energy changed and your state changed and suddenly from a state where "it is does not matter if you help people or not because it ultimately nothing matters", you entered into a state where "it is the most important thing to help someone "and few days or months after that you came back to "nothing is important" state. This explains why people who do drugs or gamble do not care about nothing except drugs or gamble. Because it changes their state where family and friends are not important just as helping people in Africa is not important to both of us. We "know" rationally we should do something just as a person doing drugs knows he should care about his friends and family but we do not "care" because we are not in an appropriate state to care about those things. Even when you imagine your are helping someone in a car crash by yourself or by watching a movie about this your state changes. Focus changes your state internally , music and events change your state externally, and your state influences your focus. Get control of your focus and change your external surroundings. To recap: The state you are in most of the time is the state where nothing is valuable , so you act accordingly, not pursuing things of low value. To pursue something you must value it, to value it you must change your values, the easiest way to do this is to change your state. For more see Tony Robbins and Les Brown. Type "god speed mark petrie" into your tube then observe how you feel and your values and wants.

@ThePhysics1234

8 жыл бұрын

***** Well how is it supposed to help someone by saying that they need to find a reason to do something without giving them a way to find a reason or making that reason desirable. I mean if its so easy everybody would do it. How is it supposed to help someone to say that they desires must outgrow their effort to make them do something with their life if it does not tell them how to create desires that they do not have? What i am saying is change your state. I mean its not big of a thing to know that if you put workout music on that you will want to work out or have any kind of physical activity after that. Its not that music gives you a reason, its that it changes your state so you think about the world and yourself and working out differently. You always have reasons to work out, but when you are in a "lower" state they are not compelling enough, they are not meaningful. When you change your state these same reasons become meaningful. The problem is not finding your WHY , the problem is to live in a psychological state where your WHY matters to you.

One key factor in self-motivation is the belief in one's own abilities, also known as self-efficacy. People who have high self-efficacy tend to be more motivated to achieve their goals, as they have confidence in their ability to succeed. In contrast, those with low self-efficacy may be less likely to pursue challenging goals, as they believe they lack the necessary skills or resources. Another important factor is the value we place on our goals. When we perceive a goal as being personally meaningful or important, we are more likely to be motivated to pursue it. In contrast, goals that are seen as irrelevant or unimportant may not elicit the same level of motivation. The environment in which we work or study also plays a role in self-motivation. People are more likely to be motivated when they feel supported and valued by others, such as peers, mentors, or supervisors. On the other hand, a negative or unsupportive environment can undermine motivation and lead to burnout. Finally, intrinsic motivation - the drive to engage in an activity for its own sake, rather than for external rewards or pressures - is a powerful force in self-motivation. When we are intrinsically motivated, we are more likely to persist in our efforts and feel a sense of enjoyment and satisfaction in the process.

I'm a third year Btech student . I really learnt alot from this video. Every morning I am terrified of the tasks that lay ahead of me . This is because most of the times we are told to choose profession over passion and we never really have a choice. But what is most important is to feel self motivated and inspire ourselves and everyone around us. We need to believe in response efficacy i.e believing our behavior will lead to certain outcome. We are all controlled by consequences i.e postive and aversive. Positive consequences makes us feel good and we feel controlled /negatively enforced due to aversive consequences .All of this depends on how we communicate with ourselves and with others and work for the opportunities that come our way.We must sit down and talk to ourselves about the choices we have like a success seeker rather than a failure avoider .Having a sense of community is really vital in order to feel self motivated . Having each others back and being interdependent rather than independent is must. When you see the opportunities in the things you do you feel competent and motivated. When you see the positive side to everything it leads to self motivation. It all depends on the person's perspective towards himself and his surroundings. Hence we feel empowered when we are self motivated.

I watch a lot of TEDxTalk. -Some I didnt even finish watching. -Most I finish watching it, but notice the time, and known how long he has been up there talking. -But this guy is the only one TEDxTalk Ive ever watch, that I was suddenly shock that it was over and I was suddenly didnt realize its has been already 15 minutes. Great Talk.. Any other suggestion on a great TEDxTalk please share, thx

+Arduka Corvus I watch a lot of TEDxTalk - Sometimes I don't even finish a video - Most times I do but I notice the time and know how long he/the speaker has been up there talking. But this is the one TEDxTalk that has ever suddenly shocked me by ending without me realizing it's already been 15 minutes. or But this is the one TEDxTalk that I've watched that shocked me when it was over and I hadn't even realized that 15 minutes had flown by. Great talk... Any other suggestions for a great TEDxTalk would be greatly appreciated. Is correct, natural and/or at least better.

Mastering Self-Motivation is key to your success! "We are all in this together and we need each other!" Well said at ten years old, better sixty years later! This guy is real likable!

This man is one of the best speakers I’ve heard in a LONG time. Well done!

Listening to videos about motivation while writing a paper about educational psychology for my master's degree in elementary education. We actually learned about Badura! Hoping to simultaneously "study" and work at the same time. Love seeing application of theories and learning more about them. :)

This talk was clear, concise, colourful, captivating.

I need to meet this man. Absolutely incredible talk.

Wow. Accepting that we can learn from each other regardless of who a person is really shook me because I had literally journaled about that yesterday. Scott was such a great speaker. Did not feel like he was reading from a script at all, he seemed very passionate about his talk and that is what Ted Talk is all about.

That poem gives me the funny emotional feelings.

Thank you for this amazing talk. I almost cried in “the cookie thief” part.

I was so mesmerized while watching the talk that I was feeling as I am one of the audiences sitting in from of him. In Quarantine this is the best use of time when you get lost in improving yourself 👩‍🎤

One of the best Ted Talk speakers and presentations I have watched.

We are all in this together. Powerful.

i really like this talk and scott geller's way of talking. he got a bit all over the place with this talk but it was all worth listening to. in fact, i think he actually had too much he wanted to say (and that i would be interested in listening to) and it didn't all fit into one talk. in any case, i wish he would do more talks, or articles or something. this guy has a LOT to share!

i somehow find this video every 18 months or so. love it. the guys in his 70s with bundles of energy. Amazing.

I love his energy and infectiously optimistic attitude !

This guy it's a great speaker. Now I'm really motivated.

Thank you Scott Geller, I needed that. Break it down and accept and ask for the help and support I need. Break it down and support.

The talk is literally one of a kind. Thank Dr Geller for motivational sharing!

I really needed this for 5 years, I lost motivation to become a mathematical-physicist I ben stuck in my career for too long, this opened my eyes, I wish my teachers could have the humility to get feedback like Scott's teacher

His way of speaking and body language reminds me of Walter White

We can always learn from each other. This a lesson to live by.

you are one of the most exciting, entertaining and engaging, speakers with brilliant and beautiful information, that I absolutely agree with 120% !! You are AMAZING !!

I love the ideas Scott shares here and the contagious energy with which he expresses his points.

as a health coach, this TED Talk was really motivating. Sometimes I get stuck to how to put the context of the psychology of motivating and how to do things more efficiently and more effectively into words with my clients. At the moment, I am face deep into psychology books but this is like the frosting on the cake. well done!!

Wow this is just beyond amazing! Excellent delivery and simply an awesome speech!

one of the best ted talks i have ever seen. scott geller is such an inspiring man. perfection.

Thanks for your words. I don't like to ask for help , whenever I got stuck I really feel very low and think how could I fail to do it. BUT after watching it I realized that helping each other is the only key to success. Thanks

He Is an Amazing Speaker, Full Of Energy and Very Uplifting and Most Definitely a Self-Motivator!!!Thank You For Your Support Mr Scott Geller.

This guy is a FANTASTIC speaker and raconteur!

It's so important to show young people, and adults alike, the difference between a success seeker instead of a failure avoider. Our public schools are being forced into failure avoidance mode with the foucs on high stakes testing. I too often saw the beaten down spirits of young minds who knew nothing but failure avoidance. My work was cut out for me to share the joy of learning, the joy of seeking knowledge, the joy of seeking success because it is worth it! Thanks, Scott, for an inspiring TEDxTalk! Thanks for spreading such an important message :-)

he talks with such intention. I love it

That's wonderful. He talks with his all enthusiasm. It encourages me, invigorates me to work harder and achieve my goal.

It is a great one off guide for finding your true calling and achieving success without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my cousin after a lifetime of fighting got cool results with it.

Its amazing to watch Scott Geller speaking and giving inspiration like this ! It helped me a lot to understand my own capabilities and consequences. Thank you Geller for your motivation.

great! Will never forget this talk!!

One of the main reasons we procrastinate is that we think too much about future outcomes. If you stop thinking about what might happen tomorrow and focus on JUST TODAY and what you can do today you will get things going and procrastinate less

Wow. Like most of you I watch a lot of speeches on YT, especially TEDTalks. I'm also a professional speaker myself. But never have I seen such a brilliant, first-class presentation in all my life. Content, style, message, delivery - this guy has it all. What a beautiful human being and I feel so lucky to have heard this. If my presentations can ever be this good, I'd be a happy man. I'm going to use the principles taught here to aim for that!

Man... this guy has a full life time experience and that's so precious. He's a great speaker too! he could transmit his knowledge to others outstandingly.. I admire this type of people. Thanks Doc.

Best TED talk that I´ve watched till now

This man is really a motivated speaker. The way he delivers is awesome. I have watched this video several times.

what a great speaker kept me engaged the whole time

Nice job dad--you know exactly how to make a difference!

How did I not know Scott played the drums after attending several of his ASSP presentations and conversations at the EXPO. NICE!!! He is a legacy in our work. Well done!

10:40 Wow, he radiates so much energy and raises energy levels of those listening too. Love his delivery style. And inspiring content.

I'm so motivated to motivate people . Your the best Sir !!!

I feel like that's why so many people enjoy college more than highschool because we CHOOSE college and although its not a guarantee to be easy, we want to achieve something through it whether that be a degree or an experience. It really is how you perceive it though and the mindset you put on what you do. At the end of the day if you decide college isn't for you or whatever the case may be don't think of it as a mistake or waste if time whereas an experience and a step closer to something else that works better for you.

“Will it work?” I’ve been struggling lot in silence since last year I feel so much like I’m a failure, at start I’m doing better I get my degree and get what I want and need and it works but now I after the big failure happened to me it seems like I’m all done I’m back to zero and tried to stand up many times but I ended up crying in 4am. I do really wanna inspire others but I cannot even inspire myself. 😔

Self motivation is essential if you're self employed . This guy is a great speaker on the subject .

I find it hard to get motivated working for somebody else I know I can probably come up with strategies to get myself motivated but nothing is going to motivate me as much as working for myself being in charge of my own destiny and actually having a chance to make what I'm actually worth because it's all up to me I learned that decided to start my own business it's worked out well for me

The community lesson was a great one he uses an example to show that people whether they feel they're are better or have ego , They can still learn from other people as he told his teacher when he was 10 years old.
