well, that board just became my shiny new object

Nice to see you back. It's been 89 years.
It's not 89 it's 69😅

I was very happy to be the 89th like on this
Actually she says 84 in Titanic 😂

I found your channel a few months after my sibling unexpectedly passed away. It felt like the world around me simply fell apart. Time kept marching on but I felt stuck in place. I stumbled upon one of your videos by accident. Best accident of my life.
In the last 2 and a half months, I went from feeling like my life was going nowhere, to being one of 4 university students to go on a very special trip to study overseas. I've never left the country before, and this is very scary for me, but I would not have done it without your incredible content. The empathy you share in your advice is completely unmatched.
If the TH-cam algorithm hadn't randomly suggested a video from you those 3 months ago, I don't know where I'd be now. You changed my outlook on life and I have been able to begin healing.
Thank you so much for all that you do. Even if you don't upload regularly all the time, you're still changing lives--and that is already a great achievement. Thank you.
That's remarkable, I'm so happy for you:) Enjoy the trip & your journey of life!
The "be born in 1954" life hack hit too close to home 😂
Glad to see you back!!
Legend has it, if you say "Mihaly Czikszentmihalyi" three times into a mirror, his ghost will be summoned to help put you into a flow state.
Of course, this has never happened, because nobody has ever pronounced his name correctly.
I'm told it's close to "cheek-sent-me-high"? Which is at least a fun mnemonic.

If Notion was a Rube-Goldberg Machine. Absolutely love it, Cam!

I adore how you take things to the analog tracker level, it makes me so so so happy! and who doesn't like the physical act of spinning a wheel forward so you're on the next step, or moving markers forward into the next bin? it feels like progress just in that act because you're actually moving something, even! this has given me a lot of food for thought - thank you for sharing this!!
I agree, the physicality and tactile feel is rewarding
you ever watch a video and realize it’s about to revolutionize your life? I can’t wait to build my project tracker wall, holy shit. Thank you!
(Apr20/2024: brb, I’ll provide an update in a few months with my results/progress)
That "on ice" and section "C" is great. Incentivising section A and B tasks to get big central things done. Great way to get stuff finished. Well done.
may you explain it to ne? I somehow didmt get the essence of it.
You have no idea of how much this is got me excited! I have a really hard time on trying to use planners and bullet journals bc i need to visualize things in order to understand it. like actually be able to see all at once you know? I also need it to be flexible so I can manage different types of projects and keep track of how much I have progressed. I have adhd so, if I don't see it, it doesn't exist. I NEED things to be visual. and I also am an artist so I really need things to be aesthetic pleasing in order to get "attached" to it you know? I feel like I get some type of emotional attachment with things that I created artistically so it is harder for me to give up on it. i probably sound weird, but I think it makes a lot of sense to my brain, so thank u a lot!
I totally relate to all of this!
Its insane how you just described me fully 😅
this inspired me to make my own, very barebones version: The Frog Bucket
I have a drawing of a frog on my wall; next to it are little sticky notes with small tasks ("come up with loglines", etc). After I "eat each frog", the sticky note gets ripped up and put into The Bucket, which will increase in size as needed. The goal now is to see how big of a Bucket I can fill up with "frog" bits
As someone doing the Alphabet Superset who got stuck on G for some reason, it's honestly really validating to see the person who started the whole project, still trucking along, but way behind the original schedule. It's been easy for me to get in my head about falling behind, and it makes it harder to start back up and keep going. Seeing you adjust your timeline to make it doable for your real life is so helpful. Thank you for just being your usual, honest, approachable, real self 💚
Loving the Alphabet Superset project - I’m behind schedule as well but I think I might actually finish this one!
I’m in love. Now I know how to redecorate my bathroom. Seriously- it’s the only place people don’t interrupt me. This wall is being taken over!
Maybe simple and intuitive but I love the idea behind "at what point will i have to look up and ask what to do next?" It can be applied to so many parts of life to prevent the "well, what now" feeling.
Thrilled to see you back, hope the writing has been productive.
Actual Diagnosis tHanks Doc was brilliant!! 🤣as is this video, precisely because you're adhd you always find out of the box solutions for problems that are bigger for you but that everyone struggle with. As always (and as a fellow adhd XD) I'll have to watch the video again to get all the info, but it's another gem, thanks Cam! Soo looking forward to reading your next book 😍
When you first mentioned this it helped me get through a bunch of undergraduate pre reqs while working full time, and now I am halfway through my Masters- thank you!
All I did was move post it’s from one side of “the wall” to the other- so simple, but like the 70% rule this really changed my life.
I hope you’re enjoying being a dad and spending time outside of the internet 💜
gamifying and visualizing the progress seems like the way to go for me then. I've been so anxious and scared of uni assignments these couple months, since I see all these other kids having such cool designs and ideas for the task, and also I'm studying in german, my third language. everything feels so overwhelming for me while in fact when broken into smaller tasks everything is doable like you said. thank you for the video, it's nice to have someone in the creative field guiding us about productivity :)
dude, you’re just. The coolest. I never comment on or get parasocial about internet people but you’re so uniquely creative and not just in terms of art but like.. creative in dealing with your own brain and predilections. Idk can’t wait to buy your books : ) watching your videos for a few years it’s like… I feel proud of everything you do, it’s amazing. Even if there are tough times, the things you’ve accomplished and the people you’ve inspired!! Wow!
Thanks for doing these wonderful and time consuming videos, in spite of the fact that you have many other exciting projects on your wall. You really help a lot of us out here struggling to make sense of our creative lives. I have to say that, even though I love your highly illustrated and complicated videos, when you just talk and do something simple that may not take as much of your time, that is wonderful too. And helpful also. Your messages and encouragement are the most amazing parts of your videos. You really do make the world a better place. I loved your first book. I'm looking forward to your second.
I created something similar for myself a while back and it was a game changer. My board only has 3 sections: Concept; In Progress; and Complete. It serves as a placeholder for ideas I have so I don't have to hold them in my head or worry that I'll forget them. And, it tracks my progress. It's simple and very effective.
love the tactility of the token moving between containers and the dial and sliding weeks, it's like playing a board game like mouse trap in organisation tool form
Not a writer but i struggle with progress and organization. I feel like im not improving and I have to many shiny side ideas and this wall is a great tool ❤ thank you for sharing!
I have been watching your content for 2 years now and you are one of my favorite TH-camrs. I love how you come up with unique and creative ways to go about life and goals. As someone who enjoys creativity and visual aids, your videos have always stuck out to me. Keep up the great work, it is appreciated! 😄
I am excited tor everything! I am SO HAPPY you are here again. Your work is wildly helptul. Both your content and your presentation resonate with me to my very core. ADHD, addiction, trauma, shitty life choices, shiny new thing syndrome, and writing a book! Cam, you're my guru. Thank you for doing what you do!
That board is genius, so amazing to see your projects laid out and the progress on each! Looking forward to the new book!
I'd love a video on your thinking process of how you come up with an idea like this one.
Damn I love that the board is so interactive and 3D! I always love your videos, but this one was extremely timely for me! Currently developing a music project and the way you did this board is great inspiration for how to externalize, organize, and track for goldish brained creative! Thank you for sharing! Also, you're probably the only creator that I will genuinely watch the same video twice in a row and pause to digest it. So thank you for your work! 💚
Yaaaaaaay new video, welcome back🩵 excited for the book
That's amazing, looks good but above all else seems extremely functional, thanks for sharing :) I'd like to share a small revelation that I had regarding the "feeling good" or "productivity as a means to an end and not an end itself". Just a small content warning for grief/trauma dump beforehand though lmao.
For years I've been in a mentally exhausting "procrastinating productivity trap". I ask myself what sorts of things I would want from life, and instead my brain answers with things I SHOULD do: exercise, learn new skills, clean more, be more ecological, be better at work,..... And then when I try to be productive at these things and make up time tables or planners etc, it all just crumbles down within days/weeks, because I feel pressured and lazy and bad about myself.
But several weeks ago I bought a diary, and I once again asked "what do I want from life", and my hand wrote "I want my passed away relative back". It was a huge realization to me that I've been distancing myself from things that I actually want (because it would hurt if I don't get them), and that I was more affected by grief than I pretended to be. It's no wonder I don't find fulfillment when I try to force myself to do arbitrary things even though my soul needs another kind of healing. Ever since then I've asked myself more often "what do I actually want to do", and even small answers like "listen to music", "sit in the sun" or "go buy some fruit" have actually made me feel good once I execute them. I'm on my way to figure out what sorts of activities will make my life happier and more fulfilling, instead of trying to mold myself into society's expectations of a productive life.
So I guess my point is that if someone watching this feels pressure to be productive in life, but their brain is actually telling they SHOULD instead of WANT TO, then I would recommend taking a moment to talk to yourself about what are things that would actually give you happiness and peace :)
As someone who is craving analog stuff because every digital space is too overwhelming, thank you for the wall!
Wow. I'm a BIG process design nerd and its RARE that I come across a new tool/system/process decision breakdown that actually transforms my current practice. This is a beautiful new and USEFUL tool! Thank you for sharing your process!!!!
Loved the creativity behind "The Wall" planner, Campbell! It’s a brilliant strategy to manage distractions and maintain focus on high-priority projects, proving that sometimes the simplest tools can drive the most productivity. 📊
The project wall planner looks more fun and interesting than doing the project itself 😅
As a visual thinker and a struggler-of-executive-function, this board is RAD. Super cool, would love to give it a go someday
Your analog project planner is great system. I find that after I’ve written my goals, I tend to forget because they’re out of sight, out of mind. I really like the on ice area because I am guilty of following shiny objects.
'at what point will i have too look up and figure out what to do next...' is exactly how i go about it. also, alot of your inner processing feels really familiar. keep up the good work, your content helps me alot
you’ve taken what I physically feel in my head when I tick things off a list and just brought it to life in the most tangible and thoughtful way - and I really appreciate you for sharing just unapologetically yourself despite how big you’ve become
OH MY GOD!!! I can't believe it. I started giggling when I saw the notification. Missed you, my man!
Thank you for sharing this great ideas and your story on this! You have given the audience hope and possibilities on dealing with thoughts, especially with the addiction story. I feel honored to hear your story! Keep up good work and inspiring people man!
This was the most amazing thing I've seen in a good long while. It's like you just offered a solution for my whole life.
So my brain completely works like this and I haven't been able to find a system to visualize a big task and then all the tiny tasks within it. While I'm not sure if I have the artistic skill for this, I do have a wall by my desk in my new apartment that could benefit from some sort of visualized wall to help my brain make sense of stuff. Thank you for always creating really out-of-the-box solutions. You are one of the most creative people on TH-cam in my opinion.
so cool. I made a wall to for chronic illness progress but could be applicable to just general life . each week i put a weekly planner page on the wall and in each day (in advance) I've written the main things I need to do each day - food, cold shower, sun, meditate, excercise routine, pace (energy). and I tick them everyday and it becomes a way to reflect on the past week or few weeks and be like oooh you've really slacked with your cold showers etc. it makes me feel like effy from skins when she came back from hospital but it works.
Its the cheeky laugh after the dark comment that gets me every time. Good to see you back, drop in again soon!
I'm excited about the new book. I bought your previous one and left it on the kitchen table. I've caught both of my teenage boys reading it!
Welcome back! We missed you! 🎉
You read my mind and know what I need every time you post a video. How do you understand how my brain works so well??!! I can’t wait to make a creative looking wall for wedding planning that has started causing anxiety. I know I have to get things physically organized infront of me to be productive but you have given me the inspiration
I'm happy this has helped you, and it does give me ideas, too. Having something analog is helpful.
Thanks Cam, this is now my #1 priority project for the weekend.
I usuallly Never comment but I just wanted to say: thank you! I've been reading your first book and can't shut up about it ever since. I've gifted it to many friends and family members and could read it all over again. So excited for the next one !
youre so inspiring, campbell - wishing you peace, inspiration, contentment, and wonder
youa re a hard worker. i would probably just forget about the wall and work just because i watch youtube and it is easier
Love it! This comes at the perfect time for me. Glad to see you're back and also glad you took the time to work on the book!
This is amazing. I am soooo visual and have been thinking about making something similar but was struggling to organize it. Thank you so much for sharing your process with us!
Great to see you back again Campbell, I can see this system working well for me, thank you!
Oh man I’m so excited you’re back! Your videos never fail to inspire me to be the very best of myself 🧡
Hey everyone, a new struthless video dropped 🔥
Another winner - thank you Struthless! ✨
this is great! thanks for sharing your thoughts, your art, and your chill attitude!
Soooo excited for your new book. Halfway through your first one, but with only that and your existing videos, you’ve helped me soo much to understand my own brain. Seriously, thanks buddy. I’m achieving more than I ever thought I could, and have developed skills and insight I didn’t even know I needed.
I love that this is an analog system. I struggle so hard with all above mentioned systems. And though digital is the most versatile and compact ( I travel a lot with no stationary space ), I found that it doesn't let me actually SEE everything at a glance. I'll lose track of progress in tabs, windows. In books I cannot right away see what is inside the book so I WILL forget to even look in it. Too many scrap paper for shiny new ideas. Sorry for the vomit. BUT I love love love your wall. The physical movement allows a greater sensory connection to bring that "feel good about progress" into reality. Too often I complete something but don't actually feel that I did. The mind-muscle connection is missing I suppose. This system also brings a sweetness to something that may initially feel overwhelming or impossible.
I feel this is also better for perfectionist creatives. Each sectioned is almost a custom visual representation of how it feels to progress for that particular item. The long swirl for the house savings versus the linear approach to writing a book. The bucket depth also feels more accurate to how items will have to spend time in each stage. If there was no bucket, for example, I think for me, it would feel more pressured to move forward quicker.
Anyway, I could go on for awhile on how much I love this system. Thank you for sharing. Always love your videos.
I fell off the Superset at L because of school, plus I got too ambitious (I'm doing songs that'll be compiled into an album at the end and I wanted LMNOP to be a 5-part suite). With school ending for summer in a metter of weeks, I think I'll be able to get back on along side you!
I love the little cool work corner, I definitely have a cool little project always going on but I never take it into account and sometimes I get lost in it instead of my important work. This is helping me a lot on the way I look at my daily works and producticity goals. Thanks for the video!
I've been thinking about building "a wall" of my own for a while now and this video has really reignited that desire and given me some ideas for it as well! Thanks Campbell! 😊
Once again, a new favourite video of mine and once againa new hack from you I`ll most likely implement in my life as well (at least some other version of it). So good to have you back here with us! I can`t wait for your nex book, soooo exciting!!
Love everything you put out. Happy to see you back!
Thanks for sharing your amazing idea!
Thank you thank you thank you man
Your every video hits special every time
Maybe your videos are the only thing on TH-cam that I’m rewatching from time to time. Helps me keep my eyes on a road and it’s hard
Thank you again
So good to see you again!
This is truly incredible. I need to make one for my lifee
Grateful for when you share things like this. 🙏🏽❤️
This is dope, thanks for sharing your experience with this!
A lot of your videos offer so much value (especially as someone with ADHD as well), I'm always excited to see an upload Cam. Congrats on personal progress!
Love the way you break things down into something that seems possible- then give us the encouragement to take action. Thanks!
God, I love this idea!Thanks so much for sharing.
I love this! Made a digital one and will be making a wall version too. Thanks for sharing your approach!
Love the breakdown of where to log ideas so you keep track of shiny things without them overwhelming actual activity and progress. Thanks!
I love your creativity 🙌🏻
Can't wait to read your new book!
Thank you!!! I long for your videos. It arrived the day I planned to start a "productivity advices" diet. Starting now, two weeks countryside retreat. Glad I got this one video of yours before! Now I'll only open my sketchbook ☺️
So great to see you back! Love your system, btw. I think I need something like that in my life.
I actually just rewatched your journaling video yesterday for some inspiration and was like "hey! where did that fella go??" Glad to see you've been using your time constructively. Can't wait to see the fruits of your labor!
dude Im so glad I've met your channel on YT
thanks Cam for this journey you are an amazing person
i am right now working with a super small and simple version of this on a big project, and wow i'm really in love with some of your wall's features!! the pockets of flowers for example, it's great, i will do something like that in the future instead of coloring sections of tasks into different colors depending on their stage of being finished))
making those tracking "analog computers" is like half of the fun, too))
I was getting worried something had happened, so it's great to see you back. Definitely missed your videos! But I'm also glad that the break was good, and getting this video out of it (and your upcoming book!) is wonderful. And, really, I feel like you taking a break from TH-cam to write, even elongating Superset, is a very "practicing what you preach" thing to do. Looking forward to whatever's next (no matter how long it takes).
This is brilliant and inspiring dude. Thank you for sharing!
always feels good to see ya.
and the timing just hits perfectly. couple of days ago i had this overwhelming feeling of having too many things that are interesting to me atm. felt this urge to draw it all out on my whiteboard. watching your vid now makes me want to create a lasting version of what i drew on the board. the wall is coming
Up until now I’ve been using my calendar but I’ve wanted to get on top of it if that makes any sense! Thank you for sharing, your sincerity makes me feel like you’re my life coach friend from across the world. Big love to you, you’re changing lives from the bottom of your heart.
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 This is amazing ... right up my alley. Many thanks for sharing!! Looking forward to the next book. :D
Your videos always inspire me so much, I have just used your journalling ideas this week. I love the low-tech, colourful, self-made and well thought through ideas of yours. It's totally fair to not make TH-cam the highest priority - I am looking forward to any new video though.
I have always felt like a hand-written overview motivates me best over months, but have never sat down to actually implement a more complex board. I want to, now.
That it makes people happy to feel like they're making progress is so simple but eye-opening for me. This will influence my big choices regarding my career. And I can stop feeling guilty about not being always happy even though it's cozy and well-paying.
Thank you!
Love your book
Looking forward to your next book. I too have shiny new object syndrome. I like the idea of the wall as the more stuff I ‘have’ to do (juggle) the more shiny new objects are much more appealing. It may have to go on ice for the moment though until I can clear the backlog.
omg I love this, I started this year using my version of the BigAss Calendar. It's helped me to visualize what is going to happen, but not so much what needs to or should happen ie planning. And I've realized that digital just doesn't spark the same excitement for me, its sooooo much smaller, limited to the size of your screen. But I want something big to feel big too. Anywho, im stealing this
PS. I particularly like the physical aspect of moving a token around - I think it'll be so much more effective than just moving pieces of paper. Thank you for the idea! I'm off to finally use my random button collection for something :D
Great video Cam! Have been feeling like I’ve been stuck in a slump for ages and was thinking just the other day, I need Cams videos to get me back into things 😅 appreciate you!
This is incredibly creative. Nice work
I’ve been using a kanban board for the same structure but yours looks like more fun and more constraints! Thanks for the ideas and welcome back!
I will be making one of these this weekend!! I'm working on what I hope will be my first book and I think I could really do with some more structure so I think this will help a lot.
Your creativity is honestly so inspiring. Love Ali too! Thanks for the useful video 💗🤘🏻
This couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. Thank you Cam!
Love this! took a screenshot so that I can really look at it and figure out how to apply this to my own life. Thank you for another great video!
Congrats on the progress! I love it when a system works--I just struggle with continuing to use that system! 😅 (shiny new things...!)
The running goal and the way you've visualised it makes me think about using a similar strategy for meditation and track the amount of minutes so if I miss a day or two it doesn't derail me, since it's about the accumulation of time spent not perfect days.
I've been rereading Your Head is a Houseboat this week (funny timing!) so it's super exciting to see your progress on book 2. Keep on! 😊
