    This is the best explanation I have heard for this problem. There are so many people terrified of what could happen to them in their future. To understand that we do not control future events sets us free to enjoy today.

    I try to get good sleep, but I am not certain it is absolutely ultimately important. Hear me out. A very famous song writer, Burt Bacharach, lived to be 93. He was incredibly successful, but got around 3 hours of sleep per night. Maybe he would've lived to 105 if he had better sleep, but doesn't that say that the traditional desired sleep amount of 7-8 hours is in fact not really all that pivotal for everyone?

    VIDEO SUMMARY: To sum it up, we need to Prioritize certain tasks because the way our brains work, we will lose our skill growth and tracking and we will experience slow growth. But if we focus on 1 or two things consistently in seasons, we will experience great growth and great results. Make sure we are able to do this with having Energy, by eating right (no refined carbs or highly processed foods), sleep, and sweet spot of exercise. And then Psychologically we need to understand that everyday matters to our long term success and you're either making yourself expontentially go down or up by either doing consistently bad things or good things. Be afriad that you are waisting today because that is a sign you're on the path of living a nightmare.

    I do not understand how emotions would cause a lack of discipline. Most athletes use emotions to create the desire to practice and excel. The emotion of caring for family members is why people work at jobs they dislike which takes a lot of discipline. We hear of "successful" people who are cold-blooded anti-social psychopaths . Yet they are considered a "success" because they have money or the control of other people.

  • @user-ur6uw6vn9t
    @user-ur6uw6vn9tАй бұрын

    That's not discipline. That's motivation. Very different. People who rely on the "emotions" to do the work will find it very difficult to continue what they started should these emotions die off, which they most certainly can in the case of burn out, psychiatric medications, addictive substances, lack of proper nutrition, exercise, sleep,... the list goes on. I am speaking from experience.

    You can use emotions as a fuel initially but for long term you need to make your prefrontal cortex stronger than your limbic system.

    @@user-eo1vk I have one voice in my mind, it is who I am . I am an emotion (thought) created by electrical impulses. I ran long distances. When I would "hit a wall" I would struggle threw it until I regained energy but always kept running. There was never a "prefrontal cortex" intervention that I know of.

    I use my laptop. And yesterday I used it from 6:30am to midnight. I have a multitude of things I should do, some not so repulsive (practicing music) some mundane (cleaning, organising. I have laundry set out to dry and not put away.......from about 10 days ago). I avoid doing things I know I should do, some of them pleasurable (music practice, reading, exercising, going for a walk). I just don't do the things I know would benefit me.

    Love your content man! It's amazing to have one who is credible and educated in neuroscience to discuss these topics. All of these KZread shorts these days just give their advice based only on anecdotal experience and no science-based evidence. So thank you. Can you do a video (for informational purposes only) on how one might overcome low energy, apathy, low motivation, etc. under the case of external forces (antipsychotics, hard elicit drugs that may permanently destroy brain receptors and chemicals, etc.)
