No days wasted6/11/2023 But it’s not something I want to do long-term. It went fine, and people seemed to enjoy them. I made a couple of new videos and edited and uploaded them. We get easily distracted and we pursue new things before we finish our existing goals.Ī while ago, I put more focus on improving my YouTube channel. I used to try to do too many things at once. That’s a hard lesson I wish I learned much earlier. You can achieve anything in life if you just focus on one thing. Keep in mind the ease with which logos is carried through all things. “Enjoyment means doing as much of what your nature requires as you can. Enjoy the process and don’t focus too much on future outcomes. Usually, you’ll write more than just one sentence. Writing a book? Show up and write one sentence. But when we start anything valuable, it requires constant work. We imagine getting rich, and being successful. When we try to write a book or start an online business, we imagine getting lots of sales in a few months. It’s easy to fantasize about achieving goals. It’s very corny and obvious advice, but there’s a reason people often talk about showing up. The key is to do something you can easily sustain. Maybe you’ll walk 3 kilometers and that’s it. The better solution? Just say, “I’m going to exercise today.” Period. Also, if you don’t hit your metric, say, you only finished 8K before giving up, you’ll only feel bad about yourself. It also encourages procrastination (“I feel too tired right now. First, imagining yourself running a tiring distance can demotivate you. Let’s say you wake up in the morning and think to yourself, “I should run 10K today because I haven’t exercised in weeks.” We give ourselves a hard time when we focus too much on the outcome of an activity. How can you break that cycle? How can you get back into a productive flow? Here are three things you can do. And before you know it, you feel like you’re wasting all your time. We know we’ve wasted precious time and it can demotivate us from doing better. When we don’t make any meaningful progress, we feel like crap. A while back, I did a study and found that at least 88% of the workforce admits to procrastinating for at least one hour on a typical workday. But there are many people who waste time during the day at work. When you do it occasionally in your free time, it’s no big deal. Wait, what? More than 2 hours on my tablet? What happened? Well, wasting time. The next time I looked at the clock, it was about 12:15 am. The other day I watched a Skip & Shannon video on YouTube (a sports show mostly about the NBA and NFL), and then, I watched another video about the NBA. But sometimes, we waste a bit too much time.
