The Happiness Advantage:
US: amzn.to/3n06Hlp
UK: amzn.to/30fWCqT
We're all lazy to some extent. And there's nothing wrong with that.
However, most of the time, it's those exact moments of laziness that make us overindulge on our bad habits.
We all have certain behaviours that we default to, and we tend to perform them almost on auto-pilot.
Those behaviours could be positive, or they could be negative.
However, instead of accepting all of our default behaviours, we should re-examine the ones that are not serving us and adjust them.
And we can use our lazy nature to our advantage here.
All we need to do is utilise The 20 Second Rule.

    The problem described in this video is caused by wrong life’s target selection by each individuals who faced it. Many persons affected by social culture and influenced by the society itself. They just want things they actually don’t want, so the path to final result is very hard to complete and almost impossible.

    There’s only one way to do things: DO NOT THINK. You wanna do something? Get up and start doing it, do not consider doing it later or how much time would it take. Just start doing it. If you try thinking about details, if you end up thinking about the amount of effort it’s gonna take, you’re not gonna do it. The moment you start to worry and in your head “ifs” and “buts” appear, you’re done.

    Another strategy I've heard and that has helped me before, is to tell yourself you're going to do less than you really want to do. So like, if you want to go to the gym, instead of telling yourself you're going to go to the gym, which requires a lot of activation energy, you tell yourself you're just going to put your shoes on. And then once you put your shoes on, you tell yourself you're just going to grab your keys. And so on and so forth, until, next thing you know, you're working out at the gym.

    I have another 20s rule that works against laziness : counting 20 secondes to let yourself fully enjoy the unproductive but comfortable activity you're doing knowing that at 20, you must stop, get up and start doing the thing you need to do. That way you don't feel like you really stopped doing the comfortable thing because your brain knew that it was gonna end in exactly 20 seconds so it enjoyed it even more, but you're also able to move on to the productive activity.

    This works for me. I actually wanted to read 30 mins per day. But then, I was already tired of reading and the time hadn't finished. It was no fun anymore. So, I changed my duration of reading to become 20 mins. And I finish my reading before I get tired and it becomes rewarding. In addition, if I feel like to continue, I will add a good ten mins. So I get 30 mins reading each day. To limit restriction or 5o make it easy, I apply it to my workout. I don't want to exercise outside as I have to put more clothes (I am a Moslem where I have to be fully covered if seen in public). And I hate the idea of having more laundry after that. So, I choose working at my own room and wear my comfortable workout clothes. I have a set of KZread vids for my workout. When I am lazy doing exercise, I will get up and do just determine to get done only the warm up part. But then, I always find myself doing at least 2-3 vids on my hard unmotivated days 😂😂😂

    This is a really helpful video. I used something similar to this strategy to introduce new things to my birds, but never used it for myself. It is very true that almost every single time, it's the 1-3 small, short things I have to do before an activity that deter me. When I want my birds to do something new (ex. go inside a new carrier), I make it as easy as humanly possible for them to do it. I use boxes to line the opening up directly with the cage top. All they have to do is take one step and they're in. I place treats right on the cusp of the opening, with a few more right inside, so all they have to do is take one step to get the treat. I use familiar items in and around the carrier so they see things they recognize. Even asking them to jump over a short gap to the opening is a barrier against use. Asking them to step down into the carrier is a barrier. Placing treats too far in is a barrier. Placing the carrier anywhere but their favourite spot to hang out is a barrier. Looks like I should be using some of my bird training methods on myself!

    I love this because it just takes a little bit of thought and a small moment of conscious change, rather than huge daily habit changes. Helpful for those who thrive off of environment and external influences (e.g. me). Excited to put it into practice. I spoke to my roommate about this and she said, oh, i kind of did that but with my phone! She hid all the apps on her phone except for like 4 important non-time-draining apps so that if she wants to use any other apps she has to search for them. I thought it was a good example of the 20 second rule for bad habits (±15 seconds lol) and a great way to adapt the concept to electronics and mental space/time, not just physical space.

Taking small steps will still get you to your destination. Now cleaning my house is something I consider a small step to ending my laziness, even though before it used to take lots of willpower and motivation.

Rather than thinking "I'm going to go forward into the water now" I thought "I'm going to hold W and make this dude I'm controlling go into the water."

I’ve stopped putting Christmas ornaments outside of the house. I do not wrap gifts, preferring gift bags.

You stop thinking ab how much you dont wanna do something, you just get up and do it. This has helped me stop hating certain tasks that i found tedious before. And actually somewhat enjoy them. Or be content, at least.

    I noticed this while studying for my thesis. I always have my phone nearby so whenever I got too bored with studying, I'd pick it up for a bit and then end up spending quite a few minutes on it. At some point, I left it in another room to charge and I noticed that even though I was bored with studying, I couldn't be bothered to get up and go find my phone in the other room so I just continued studying.

    One thing that helps me is a sort of self-competition method. If I like to think of myself as a super powered being capable of destroying the whole universe just by standing there... and then bringing it back to life, then I think to myself "please, sweeping the floor is so pleb level. Anybody can do that." and then I basically set a time limit for myself where I basically calculate how fast I could get that floor done and return to laziness. Usually, I get that stuff done in less than 10 minutes (seeing as 10 mins are like 5 these days). So by making my goals easily achievable by giving myself a challenge I can quickly overcome, I maintain my ultra epic hero self image and reward myself with laziness. Everybody wins.

    In his book "The Happiness Advantage", Shawn Achor ... decided to call this behavioral approach: The 20 Second Rule. Essentially what he did was, he made playing the guitar 20 seconds easier, while making watching TV 20 seconds harder. And this strategy can be applied to pretty much any behavior you want to change. ... And it's the same with pretty much any other activity. When it comes down to it, most of the activities aren't that difficult to do, they just require a little more effort for you to get started. But once you do start and get settled in, it's always very easy to continue, even if you don't necessarily find the activity as fun.

    At 20 years old I started putting my phone in a drawer on silent the moment I got home. Like you said these things sound simple, but a young age it made a last impression as I experienced changes for the first time…. What can make 20s habits difficult later in life is that it’s so simple we think we know what’s on the other side of our discipline. Im 31 now, it seems mentally difficult to initially implement focus habits or remove distractions but once the momentum is there and you have just a tiny bit of consistency, you notice less resistance.

    It is such an awesome idea!! I do suffer from this inconvinience every time when I want to paint. It takes a huge time to get prepared my working place and afterwards it takes even more time to clean everything up, because oil is not very easy to clean. I've always thought that I am too lazy or not inspired enough, but thanks to this video now I clearly see that all I need to do is to lower the activation energy. Btw, if anyone here is also keen on oil painting, please give me some tips (hacks) on how to make preparations quicker and especially how to simplify the cleaning process afterwards.

    Related to the phone, I found that charging my phone next to my bed is a convenient distraction. I moved it across the room away from my bed or you can charge it in another room. You're less likely to stay in bed on your phone, which was a bad habit of mine. If you need it next to you some reason, make sure to move it at times you don't. It's an extra step that pays off. I also moved my playstore app to a place less convenient to access. I found that even after deleting the apps I still would just redownload it when checking my social media. I only do this once week now thanks to moving it off my home screen.
