    5 things to quit right now:
    1. Overthinking
    2. Worrying
    3. Trying to make everyone happy
    4. Living in the past
    5. Doubting yourself

    “Negative” emotions are valid emotions and imply shame for having them. “Uncomfortable” emotions is a good description of anger, sadness, etc.

    Negative visualization is something that I was honestly taken aback by.
    We usually hear that we should focus on the best possible outcome, but a lot of the times, that comes from us avoiding the worst, almost out of fear. I'm not saying that this is necessarily the case, but I definitely see the importance of expecting the worst. It just makes you prepared.

    taking action can often be confused with being 'productive'. doing less is a big key indeed, but you need to decide what is worth your time & energy first. do less, enjoy more. great video, thanks!

    in the last insight, you say luck is something out of our controll, i think thats partially true, i also think the more action we take and effort we put into something, the more lucky we will get, for example if i would smoke weed all day and play videogames in my room, get nothing done i would never even be able to get lucky, but when i work on my business, something unexpected might happen that would help me in the right direction, so i think luck is not completely under our control but we do influence the ammount of luck we may encounter.

    One thing that the pandemic should have taught us has been the idea of “toxic productivity”. There is more to life than being productive “all the time”. Traditionally viewed “non-productive” times are just as important if not more than productive times for our overall health and well-being.

  • @stevenkhol8485

    If being productive,the person must have lots of hobbies.
    It must cost the person tons of time .
    If being interested in one subject only,it is extremely successful for the person. The person do not spend time on the others.
