- It's halfway through the year and all I've done is eat cereal. This is a simple method to reset and take control over the 2nd half of the year :)
Here's the Half Year Reset:

Thanks for watching :)
This video is precious. I'm not a parent, but I caught myself smiling every time you came to the realization that your daughter is THE goal-setter. She is THE reason for all of your future choices and decisions, and that is beautiful. This video also shows that your journaling exercise actually works since we saw it happen in real-time. 👍
I couldn't agree more! This video is adorably wholesome and truly helpful 🤩
@@glitterpenguin absolutely!
"Setting up a camera! What's next? Terraforming Mars?!?!"
I had to pause the video because I fell into a fit of giggles. I struggle with ADHD, and this is my brain about literally everything.
I’m five months pregnant and genuinely moved by your enthusiasm for your kid. I’m so excited to meet mine and I feel inspired to reframe goals that appear to be in opposition to parenting as in service to parenting!!! So sweet. Thank you!
It is the best! (Though enjoy sleep, a tidy house and impulsive nights out now because they’re all coming to an end 😀)
2 hours and a whole giant Notion journal entry later and I'm FINALLY done with this video. I love the addition of why do you deserve it and your example of "her father deserves it", because it made me also look outside of myself at the person I am from someone else's eyes. That can often be the hardest part to write, so here's mine as an example for anyone else struggling to look outside themselves here:
Because I work with more fire than nearly every person I know, and other people I know are not be as dedicated as I am to seeing things through..I deserve to show that same amount of fire and dedication to my own ambitions and goals, not just furthering the ambitions of those around me.
as someone who also can fill up an entire page of racing thoughts and self sabotage, i’m trying really hard to practice the “talk to yourself like you’re a friend or your younger self”. it’s uncomfortable to say good things about myself which is not how it should be and i hope the “why you deserve it” page doesn’t just stay blank
Ooh another fellow Notion user! I listened to this video when it released but I kept putting off doing it. I'm about to sit down and re-evaluate my whole life now. Congrats!
I love your passion for parenting. I've raised two children and currently have five grandchildren and can't imagine life without them. I also loved the video and the handout and will be working through it myself. I could definitely use a reset.
I can’t believe how brave you are. Your vulnerability is EXTREMELY helpful. I am 57 and have not reached a major life goal. Motivation is scarce sometimes. This helps me so much!!
Dude, this was a banger, one of my favourite videos of yours for sure, equally adorable and honest and vulnerable. It was an absolute joy to see you work in real time through your own journalling exercise.
I love seeing you grow as a new dad, and the way your content reflect this. It’s really quite fascinating and I can’t wait for your next videos.
❤️✌️
This is one of your best videos yet. Really resonated with me the vulnerability and humility of this. Pretty inspiring stuff. Thank you!
I totally agree
second that
totally agree and think we should reset every 90 days to keep focus - distraction can kill your dreams !
As someone who never had a father who was present--and I am sure there's a lot of people watching this who can relate--your excitement and love for your child is amazing, don't ever feel embarrassed by it. 🖤🤗 Also thank you for these videos.
that must be hard - stay strong and the fact you are watching these videos shows you are on the right path
Less than two months ago I gave up on a job offer I was looking for three years in the worst shameful way (not self sabotage, it was kinda like...blaiming a perfectly fine fact I would have accepted to face, so childish and it hurts as hell now). It's my actual biggest life's regret and I am not living this good with its burden. I don't know how to deal with this freak of nature now, but I felt so much pain after realizing I did the wrong choice that it changed completely the way I look at things. For real like never before. That freaking pain (still here) is making me drown in the worst way I have ever experienced, but this time it will be different. Loved this video man. I wish you the best for you and your entire family.
Your 'holy shit, man' moment just gave me the exact same 'holy shit man' moment. I've been seeing my work and my kids as opposing forces for 7 years. This changes everything 🤯
It's okay to talk enthusiastically about your daughter. I am still on my 20s but I find it fun to look for how next stage of life could be 🥺 So heartwarming
I just love your energy...and honesty!
I feel like I always say this, but thanks for being so honest and sharing your goals and reflections so openly
struthless, the vulnerability that you show in these videos is absolute gold for people like me. thank you. you are in a creative flow lately making your absolute best content and the energy is so very contagious. keep being an inspiration man!!
Honestly! Y are just a much-needed little light in the universe. Stuff changes, things end, but until then shine bright and know you make a difference to more than just your daughter. Thank you for the joy ❤
You’re easily my favourite TH-camr lately, thank you 😊
The joy in your face when you talk about your daughter 😍This video was super helpful for getting back on track. thank you!
I love how you kind of did this writing exercise for the first time in front of us instead of recapping one you've already thought through (at least that's the impression I've gotten before). It was nice seeing your reaction to your own good ideas (and if that's not what's going on then you're a hell of an actor 🤘)
I've had by far the most challenging 6 months of my life and this is helps a lot! Thank you Cam, this channel is genuinely my favourite and your book has been life-changing for me 🌻
I’m so grateful I found your channel!!
I’m taking a social media hiatus for a year & wanted to reflect, self improve & really reach my goals in addition to therapy. This channel has helped me so much!! Thank you ❤
You know that little tingle you get when someone says something that resonates with you? Like you're about to cry but it's not that intense? That's how I felt when you had your epiphany about your art time helping your daughter and not opposing it.
That's how I've felt about my music since having kids. "I can't focus on music as it will take time away from work and hurt our income". Thank you. I'm going to give myself more time for music as it will help my kids as I'll be happier :)
I just want you to know that I've watched all of your videos and have shaped my life in the best direction possible. You've helped me realize that I am a wonderful human being who deserves happiness and love.
I've rediscovered my creative self and have put myself back onto the path of creating, smiling, and loving. If there is ever a day that you feel down, please come back to this message or any of the countless messages on your videos who remind you all those that you have inspired, helped all those who were lost be found, and show that anything is possible.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I, and everyone else, wish you the best and cannot wait to see the next Struthless creation.
I never ever comment on people’s videos but I wanted to let you know I did this last year and I’m keen to do it again. I wanted to thank you because this genuinely made me reevaluate my goals and progress for the year. Between July-December last year, I ended up running a marathon (which I thought I’d never fucking do in my life) and saved up properly to travel to Japan. Thanks again!
You made a vew videos this year, but what you make is super enjoyable and gold. Do not let time or preasure from youtube say otherwise. Its been crazy since 2016 on how much content creators "need" to make resulting in a bunh of trash content. Enjoy yout life and your daughter. Remember you are human en not a robot. Setting low expectations while making goals is the best thing I ever did. I am a very anxious person plus you go trough highs and lows, trough seasons in your life. Defenetly try to find your flow when you are creative. Creating 24/7 does not work for every artist. I tent to create a vew things during my summer vacation when I get to focus on myself have low stress and have some time to explore(about 4 weeks). The rest of the year I do not feel bad for not creating. Cheers and stay cool.
I love that you dance with your daughter! Creating such beautiful core memories for her! Great video! Thank you for the motivation✨
ur so wholesome man, i love watching this new era of new dads bc you are all super cute, gives me faith in the next gen of kids having loving dads
Nice editing too you’re always funny and charming! Glad you’re finding happiness in fatherhood. Thank you for the resource. ☀️
I used this last year and plan on using it this year. Especially since its around the beginning of my son's summer break from school. It's difficult to accomplish much without some sort of structure. He wants to get involved with some of my goals and we're brainstorming how to synergize what we want to accomplish. So, thank you!
I love this video SO MUCH. your realization that it's not vs it's together was so lovely to watch.
Your single handedly making my life better thankyou for being so honest and open
My brain is so primed by your videos that I I could just hear your voice without listening and I would still be motivated (it is a compliment)
Your work means something to me because every time I see one of your videos I feel a bit less anxious about where I am in life and more hopeful that I can do something about it 💖👍 It's very comforting!
Been working on the exercise this morning. And boy do I feel depressed, nothing has gone right this year. But this has given me some much needed introspective and some guidance to see the roadmap again...
Thank you...
I stumbled upon your channel last year when I was trying to figure out myself and I think it was the same time as half-year. Crazy how fast that came about and I'm here again watching this video. Thank you so much for this! It really helped me back then and I'm sure this will help me moving forward. Cheers!
I loved hanging out with my Dad in his studio growing up! I hope your daughter gets to experience that too!
Paradigm shift from either/or to both/and can be so simple yet so profoundly powerful. Really well done mate. Feel like I just watched you mature in real time. 👏👏
CAMPBELL, don't worry about "success". even impacting one life which you for sure did for me, is already a big time success! Congrats to you. And Happy Merry countless years of being a Parent! Lots of love!
I love this channel so much! I worked through Cam’s book when it first came out and I’m about to do it all over again because my head has just been empty for the past year and I need help journaling again. I miss the podcast it was hilarious.
Aaahh struthless! Always posting right when I need you! I've been fixed on restructuring the trajectory of my life recently and here you are.❤
You seem like such an amazing person, honestly. Thank you so much for these videos, they're truly the best resource I've found for pulling my mental health back together. Seems like you're flourishing as a dad, it's so nice to see!! ❤❤❤
Man I can relate to this so much, I have a 20 month year old daughter and she inspires me to be better everyday. She's what I think about at 5am to get out of bed and off to the gym. To stay healthy so I can chase her around and live longer. I've also fallen back in love with playing guitar and she loves it, I want to get better to teach her when shes older.
Your epiphany just helped me have an epiphany!! Thank you :) haha. I'm so happy you are on TH-cam - you give such great, realistic, and helpful advice, and you deliver it in such a fun and creative way. You're almost at 1 million subscribers which shows how many people agree with me! Thank you and thanks for the free journal!! And it was so sweet seeing your family in your marathon video. Awesome. Cheers!
I love the fact that you think you’re not doing well yet you have almost a million subscribers??. Yeah nah! I love your channel! Fun, authentic, realistic and humble. keep it up!
This is my favourite video!! It's so sweet how you made it to help people and literally midway through you had an epiphany for YOURSELF and the whole vibe just changed AHHH. I was smiling the whole way through this video, thank you so much for this happiness - I'm not a parent but this made me so excited to be one
I downloaded this journal about 2 months ago and had a lot of brain movement filling it out. I didn't expect to fill up each page for Step 1. It really helped and I wrote very small. I have ADHD as well and I watch everything you put out and check out your social media frequently to see any new art. I like that you always find a way to keep going and watching you fill this out and have your epiphanies was awesome. I hope you don't get too hard on yourself for too long. Good luck!
I really appreciate this. I got a new perspective on my priorities and had an epiphany like you. I have an issue with performance anxiety that leads to procrastination, and I realized that I am not respecting my own time. I deserve to have my time respected, so I am determined to give myself time for actual breaks and hobbies by getting work over with. I truly hope it will work for me.
Maybe something you'd like to know about how your art benefits your daughters life:
I grew up as a child of a sculpturer and a painter. My best childhood memories are focused about me joining my parents in their creative space, while they are working. And about them showing me the things that inspire them. Just so i could engage in creative activities in their company. Later i would show them what i had made, whilst they had made their stuff aswell. Creativly active parents are honestly such a huge bonus in a good childhood.
Doing this excercise in April because I really needed the reset.
You really are awesome, struthless.
man, your videos always make me grin, even when you're sharing Hard Troofs and challenging us to do it ourselves too. thank you heaps, have a great dance session! time for me to get out of this sunday funk and do a reset.
Bearded bold love from another daughter's polish dad. Keep the good work going! You're the best!
I found your channel around a year ago and I've happily watched everything you've done. We are radically different people-geographically, creatively, hair follicle-y (lol)-but I've connected to the stuff you've put out more than advice I've gotten from almost anywhere else. Your Head is a Houseboat changed my life. I love this exercise too-gonna do it tonight! I hope the other half of your year is as wonderful as the father of your daughter deserves!
Thank you SO MUCH for showing people how it is possible to be introspective and see connections in our behaviours and thought patterns. I have always been doing this a lot myself through out my entire life - and I LOVE seeing videos like this showing/encouraging others to dig deep and take a look at themselves. It really makes me feel positive about the world, and I think it is so inspirational to see especially as men typically are taught to never do this sort of introspective looking. So thank you for allowing us viewers into this process -- and thank you for a great Reset Year pdf sheet. SUPER helpful resource (even with the spelling mistakes and all, which are endearing - I imagine you made it all in a frantic state of excitement haha!).
Also on the idea of finally reaching a state of success and then being a bit stuck, it might also just have been that the illussion of success often equals, ah now things will run on their own. I find that success doesn't really exist to me. When things are good (which might be considered succeeding), you're just constantly working and holding yourself up to the standards you want. Perhaps, success = constantly working? (whether it be journaling, remembering to do yoga, taking care of the kids, having a chill day organising, do all the laundry). And it comes and goes in waves of how easy / hard that is to do. So perhaps that is to be successful? Just keeping on top of things that you know makes you feel good.
I laughed out loud repeatedly watching this video. Pairing humor with a potentially daunting task was unexpected and incredibly welcomed. Thanks for this! 💞🤣
thank youu for this video, it's so good to see something like this! it's amazing to see a real person doing real things for improvement. i really feel motivated to work on my own personal journey :)
hugs from Brazil!
Such a new parent 😂 and i mean that in the best way. When i had my daughter my identity and choices were very linked to being my daughter's name mom. I quit my job and went back to school, made sure i was the parent she deserved. I think now i still have a fair amount those goals and ideals there, but I am finding it important to differentiate mom choices/goals and the core ones which also deserves appreciation and recognition. Its a journey.
This was so likeable and honest… i feel so connected to you through this video!!!! Nice job, SO proud of you and your work!!!!!!!
Man you just gave me the insight I needed, how I never see before that I was seeing my responsibilities as. Dad opposing the gols I want reach! And it is all about them, all I want is improve for them and my wife!!! Genius man !!!
I love this. I love how I put the worksheet into my journal on my iPad and it’s legit like… I immediately felt more put together 😂
OMG this came in right in the perfect time for me, I was getting so depressed about my lack of goals or achievements this half of the year and I begin to write a journal so I could at least have a more structured line of thought and not die in the process of this depression, but this is much better method to do it, like a super-improve-journal-of-life-and-work kind of thing, with a lot of beneficial stuff for yourself. Thank you so much I was feeling very lonely for think that I was the only one who was "suffering" from this downward spiral
Perfect timing for me actually. Just telling my hubby we need to do this
This was so much more than what I thought I would get! 😮 loved the way you love being a father, your daughter are so lucky to have you ❤ also, what amazing prompts to work with! Have seen quite a few of these to motivate me, but this I by far the best one! Also, love your humor and accent, and that your brain just clicked the dots while you were explaining! New subscriber ❤
I didn't know that I needed to see this video to realize that I have not done much self reflection in a while. Thank you
July 2nd is my birthday and I turned 30 this year this the exact thing I was looking for and feeling very lucky to have it delivered by an genuine and delightful person thank you
The amount of warm fuzzies from the love you have for your daughter 🥹 you’re a beautiful man
happy birthday !
@@andres93b thank you!! 🥰
Super helpful man! I'm gonna plug this into my current journaling for sure. Fully relate to the dad vibes too. My daughter is the greatest thing in my world! Hope your next 6 months are wonderful for you all bro 🤘
Thank you so much for this :)) I just completed all this and it's immensely helpful for the upcoming school year. For students, our lives tend to revolve around school, and the halfway point is our FULL resetting point. Definitely makes it easier to understand goals and how to go about them differently, with effective self-reflection.
so true queen
Thank you! Again! It's so refreshing for a self improvement/creativity TH-camr actually admit what they find hard and why. I get stuck in that exact 'well I have nothing worthwhile to contribute to what's the point' story. And to see you, someone I admire and who I see as successful and talented and skilled, say the same thing is just!! amazing!! Thanks for another episode of Bald Guy
Ah I loved your enthusiasm about being a parent! Congratulations!
i am doing so little with my life, even printing out these pages feels super productive
Thank you highly for creating these outlines and guides to help just reorganize ourselves. I really related to your mention of you feeling that your work doesn't mean anything or that you have no say or contribution. I am very excited and grateful to be able to print this out and just clear my head and motivate myself for my art and overall mental health and wellbeing!
Amazing and super helpful! Thanks for all the work that you do and your high quality teachings - your impact is beyond measure and can not be quantified in merely “only ran a marathon” or “only made one video”. The stuff that you share are never just “only”. I’m certain that I speak for many here when I say your real life impact is life changing :)
I loved this video ❤ Your realisation helped me have one of my own 😅 always looking forward to your content.
Thank you for this video I just wrote everything down in my journal and already feel relieved to have everything out and the sketch of a plan for the rest of the year ❤
Loved it. Regarding the "art vs child" epiphany, I think you could also make the point that your child, and being a dad in general can also inspire you to make even better art, instead of it being a one way thing.
Desperately needed this today! I was feeling so lost. Time to get organised again ❤
I have done your new year review and goals method for the past three years and I absolutely love it, it’s been the most encouraging tool to see how far I’ve come and what I want to achieve going forward, even if I don’t manage to achieve it all it’s even interesting to see how my life and priorities change each year. What is important to me. This half year is perfect to remind me to actually go check in with those goals, and I will use this to assist keeping me on track. Thanks so much Cam! X
Thank you so much for the journal exercise!!! I have so many plans for the rest of this year and I'm so excited!!! You are like a older brother to me, your kid is so lucky to have a dad like u!
I literally sat at my computer opened you tube and thought, what can I search to improve myself right now and your vid was already there haha Nice work and thanks for the excercise!
this is such a precious knowledge, feels illegal just to know... I love it, thank you for helping us achieve our dreams with your videos. You deserve to be happy too!
The timing of this is perfect. I wanted to start journaling and make a shift in my life but I am not good with writing so I think these prompts will help out a bunch :3
thanks dude for the journal! Been searching for a cool and smart journal to actually work and I think this will be the one because it spreads self love which is the hardest part about journaling for me. Appreciate ❤
I am definitely going to use this as a relapse prevention and motivational interviewing technique with my substance using clients this is an amazing class lesson THANK YOU!!!❤❤❤
This has nothing to do with the video but I just finished reading your book "Your Head is a Houseboat" and I felt so held and so seen, I was on the verge of tears (happy tears). It is amazing how you managed to approach the reader with so much love and compassion - I am really out of words to describe the feeling that the book gave me; all I can say is that it feels like being hugged and held mentally. You must have a giant heart full of love, Struthless, and I am so thankful for you sharing that love with everyone in the world through your art and the content you create.
It so heartwarming to see how excited you get about your daughter. Great content. Excited to use these materials!
The complexity and production-editing-cost-time of your videos has nothing to do with their actual value. As long as you’re speaking from this place of humility and honesty that you have within yourself, you are making a massive impact on us viewers and that transcends success defined by numbers
Thank You this is so useful!!! I wish a great half year to everyone 🥰♥️ Let's make the best of it 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Cam making another how to do the creativity + joyful accountability banger. Appreciate you & your honesty Cam! These journal prompts are 🔥
You are so funny and relatable. Wish I stumbled upon your channel earlier. May God bless you, your work, and your family!
I was diagnosed with ADHD this past year at 32. You mentioned it quickly in this vid and it made me wonder if you also have it? It'd be really inspiring to see how much you've accomplished framed inside the difficulties of ADHD. If it was just a joke, no worries, I was just curious. (And maybe you already mentioned it but I forgot... 😅)
I'm definitely going to try this journal exercise. The first half of the year was VERY mixed for me, between the euphoria of finding adhd meds and the disappointment that actually I'm not cured by them and still need to put in effort to be better.
Thanks as always for being an inspiration and a cool dude.
this made me laugh several times. I really related to your art and life togetherness epiphany! I've had chronic fatigue syndrone for three years and have been making art a very separate thing for when "im up for it". lately I've realized how it is actually part of the healing journey... little bits here and there gives me that dopamine hit that I so desperately need when I have to sit in my house all day which means I don't randomly go and do something too extreme that makes me really tired. it keeps me balanced, a balanced life is learning to harmonize all those different messy threads rather than keeping all the segmented parts perfect
Hey man, I know you probably get hundreds of messages like this but regardless of that I want to thank you a lot, and I want you to know that you have a very real impact on people's life. Just 1 year ago I was still a miserable depressed mess, but during this year I've started my weightloss journey, so far down 15 kg, succesfully passed a C1 English Exam, went back and re-did my school leaving math exam, upping it from 51 to 91% and made it back to my first choice of university to study Finance. Thank you man, could not have done all this without your guidance.❤
Definitely going to make this excercise. Could you please make a New Year's version? That way we can enter the year with a goal and then make a revision in july. That'd be awesome 😊
And thank you very much for everything, I don't have words for how much I love your work and you as a person willing to help others ❤
oh that's an awesome idea!! yup!! i absolutely will make one for new years :) thanks for the idea!
Nice real-time realization! Adorable!
This journal is awesome, I finally managed to do it and I feel this will help a lot. (I also found out I'm not as behind with my yearly goals as I thought. That was nice too.)
Love this! As you go over them, your examples r the perfect demo on how we can use it!! ❤
Love your videos like this!!! Simple and I enjoy the analysis and questions you bring up. Not a better or worse video, just different.
the windows behind are so so pretty!!
You’re already a success brother! Keep doing You!
I did this exercise and it genuinely helped me so so much. It's really easy to get stuck and this was an awesome reset. Thank you so much :)
man, marathon movie is goat and it's something I'll remember you for. your friends and family made it possible and special and you all are the only people in the world who could've made it this particular way. now I'm rooting for your people and i value and cherish my people even more. if I'd be lonelier I'd lowkey model my community after yours lol.
to me this was a year of struthless renessaince and i appreciate you not following content plan, not heavy raining with bland stuff with no life lived to back it.
your journey from cocaine jokes to inspiring circa million people was one of the coolest real person story arcs I've witnessed and the one i relate the most. I see it as hurt and divergent person shifting from self-destruction to creation and thriving.
productivity above the level of sufficiency is mostly explotative capitalist propaganda bs.
i never watched you for "productivity", i just love seeing who you're becoming.
also. your channel is your art, so it's #1, not #3:
that Danny DeVito poetry of togetherness video initially hooked me.
making things we love with people we love for people we love is all it's ever been about, while us being Danny DeVito
