I’ve been overcoming depression in the last few months and one thing that strongly contributed to my emotional improvement was taking some time to clean and organize my house. It’s not the only thing that contributed but surely it played its role and, of course, every individual is unique and one may not be benefited by this depending on the context. But yeah, if you create a schedule to make it simple and stick to it, it will help you a lot to feel better and get the momentum going. First thing in the morning is check the fridge and see if I have enough food for the day, it keeps me away from ordering food, which is very expensive here in Brazil. If I do not have enough food, I cook an decent amount, enough for 1 or 2 days, of chicken breast, rice and some vegetables and throughout the day I weight it (having a scale helps you a lot to keep control of the amount of food you have left and if you already need to cook more) and before I run out of ready to eat food I cook more. This is only the food aspect, I also kept it simple and efficient when the matter is cleaning, organized and etc. Long story short: you gotta have one habit/action that triggers another good habits, mine is cooking my food for the day, and yours?

I'd say I was "depressed" not medically or anything or know if I was truly depressed but for me when I was "depressed" I thought porn will make me happier, at that time I was trying to quit pornography and beating my hog, but yea I beat my hog but realized to make myself happier I should delete apps that make me sad so I deleted Twitter, Tic Tok and used my phone less and watched better videos just like this one.

3:28 One of the ways I just managed to deal with phone addiction before bed was getting a cheap second-hand Kindle Paperwhite with backlight: - It uses the force of your harmful habit to replace something mindless with something useful - It doesn't emit blue light - No more excuses for not having time to read - Reading makes you wind down and get sleepy, instead of the overstimulation you get from social media - Thanks to the backlight, when sleeping with other people (at home or hiking) I can read a book without terrorizing everyone with keeping the room light on. - All the benefits of e-readers (can store tons of book, much easier to hold than a 500-page book in bed, useful for travelling, etc.) - Simply the act of reading before bed is enjoyable and cozy

I love the take-away "Solutions don't have to be neat and perfect" if it's working it's working, and you build healthier habits from those messy beginnings until it's second nature. Indo-mie is indisputably (an arguably necessary) guilty pleasure though!

Man thank you so much. I usually stay away from all the self-help "gurus" on KZread but you've genuinely helped me take steps to improve myself. I've learned so much from you. Grateful.

I recently moved cities for university and my flat is literally one room and a tiny bathroom. So everything get’s messy quiet fast and i get stressed out. And while I am terrible at being tidy, keeping my kitchen space clean has become my top priority. Because when this area is messy and dirty, I don’t feel like cooking and just eat junk instead. Another hack I think is useful: cook stuff in advance and just heat them up when you’re hungry. It’s fast like junk food but it’s cheaper and won’t leave you feeling shitty… If you have a bit of time on your free days, cook one or two meals and store them in the fridge for the next week :)

It's a blessing and a curse to live in a small space like yours. The curse is the obvious lack of storage, mobility etc. But a huge benefit is that it doesn't take much to radically transform the place into something that gives you energy instead of steals it. As I've moved into bigger and bigger houses, I've started accumulating more and more things, and it's getting to a point where I'm constantly trying to get rid of stuff/simplify. “The things you own end up owning you.

@@betterideas Holy... I totally forgot that quote was from Fight Club! It's been living in my head since 2004.

I don't know whether you'll see this, but your channel is truly life-changing. I've been in a bad place for quite a while now, but have never realized what held me down all that time. I've just recently started being motivated again to improve my life and understand what was wrong with me. I can safely say it was thanks to your "How to be miserable for the rest of your life" video I've recently stumbled across. I've recognized myself in almost 90% of what was said, which was enough to break my long-lasted mind-block. It made me truly look down upon myself, my behavior and my actions, which was followed by realizations of what the things that were bothering me actually were. Might as well mention that I've almost immediately started working my way towards fixing said things. It gave me true, proper, motivation I've needed all this time and made me realize I could fix all that, now that I know what to focus on. I know it'll be a lot of work. I'm not denying that. But the summer break won't make me feel better and college won't make my problems go away. Unless I do something about it. The format of motivation that tells you how to turn your life for the worse, for me, gives you more motivation than any motivational video ever will. Kudos for that, very clever. Kinda uses that "fear of negative consequences" in a good way. Heck, I also started binge watching your videos to seek for other impurities. And, for anyone who bothered to read my story up until this point, thank you. I appeal to all of you to be courageous of yourself and realize you ARE good enough to achieve anything. It will take effort, but it's certainly not impossible. I believe in all of you. Finally, this might sound corny as shit, but you've earned a sub man. Hope it keeps going up for ya.

Man, I love how these videos have evolved over time Joey. Thanks for keeping it so fresh, informative, gut-busting hilarious (inviting the food into your hose got me good!), and totally hot with those blue light shades. Thanks for the great work and involvement in bettering people's days if not lives. Cheers, man!

appreciate the tasteful meming throughout the video. Shows to not take it too too seriously and makes it come off really down to earth and not telling me im wrong for something and that I should feel wrong like a lot of self help videos have the tendency to. I actially went and bought some plants for my room after this video.

as a person who was stuck indoors in covid i made a plan to grab my laptop and study in a library. Teaching myself to code at my place was getting daunting and i had to make quick decisions, if you have public libraries near your house don't let them go to waste and use this great option. Some people like myself are not equipped for making our home a study place but keeping it clean after a long day will always recharges me.

Hello Joey, just wanted to say that you and your videos have been a huge inspiration and helped me get my life in order and made it better. Since watching your video on locus of control I quit my industrial job to pursue my dream of becoming a psychologist. Take care, hope all is well. ❤️

Your example with hockey rick and how it instantly puts your mind in that mindset of just wanting to play hockey resonated with me a lot. I have the exact same experience with the gym, where the moment I enter the gym all the anxiety and doubts about that particular training day dissipates. It's as if my brain just got into a different mode of operation and I'm just ready to go. Same thing for when I have to study, I force myself to go to my uni's library whenever I have to study because the moment I'm there I just start studying with little to no pushback from my brain.

I think there's some other videos specific on this topic. But one good place to start is to make sure that everything you own has a place where it (can) belong. This either means getting more storage space or less stuff. The next rule than becomes that nothing is outside of its designated space for very long. You take it, you use it, you put it back. For this last one you have to assign yourself a time for this task. Personally I try to stick to the rule that before I go to bed everything in the kitchen needs to be in order again for the next day. And also, it took me years of collecting negative evidence to get there, so just keep on trying, one day you'll master it.

I've been watching your videos for a while now, and it's actually insane how much the production value has improved over time. Great job man!

Dude, I don’t know if I’ve ever commented on any of your videos, but I have been so grateful for your shared wisdom and I thank you for all the effort and talent that you put into helping others. You do very meaningful work. ❤

Yes, to everything that was mentioned in this video. I also try to move furniture around every couple of months, to deeply clean and give the room a refreshing look. It's so interesting how moving furniture around or adding something to the room can make you feel different about being in that space. I don't snack on sweet stuff but I always have cucumber and carrots handy because my mouth likes to chew stuff between meals lol.

I actually love this tips because they are specific I have seen many videos about how the environment shapes our behaviour but no ones actually gives that many practical examples! Good job

They inspire me and I am thankful because I right now can start studying to live better life and be more prepared to more lose and lady later life.

I'm aiming to make this year my next big step, by finding my own place to live and furthering the career I want to pursue.
