It's enough showing up to work... investing with a workaholic could very well "B" interpreted as a sign of aggression towards the investor... is it worth it? Probably Not..
Very important point Alux pointed out pace, stealth wealth individuals, upper class and upper middle class have less work life balance than middle class, working class, lower class and under class
Honestly, I believe the best method of ridding yourself from a timewaster is to be empathetic and kind. By using good manners and simply saying something like "Hey, I appreciate this, but I have to get going" or "Your idea sounds cool and all, but I'm not really up for it" is WAAAAY better than being petty and ghosting people.
I am the type of person who my friends come to for therapy. One particular incident comes to mind from this video.
One of my friends is a very average or below average kind of student. She has a TON of trauma and unresolved issues so I am usually sympathetic towards her. A few months ago, she began calling almost daily with similar-ish issues. I encouraged her and told her how she can improve, but she kept insisting that she can't do it.
Even when I gave her the roadmap she was like, yeah but I am not as good as you I won't succeed. I made this map for your level dude. And if you have already decided you are never going to improve and you are content with wallowing in misery forever, why come to me? I've got enough trauma and misery of my own.
I shouted at her for 10 mins straight and didn't talk for 2 days. Thankfully, she got the message.
Though she did tick many of the boxes from this video so I will have re-evaluate that friendship anyway.
Give her time. If she follows your "road map" to success, she may find the Reason to become motivated.
I think Success changes minds. Maybe not personality... although... One might argue that unsuccessful people tend to be depressed and that affects personality. When that success eventually comes to pass, that changes their outlook toward their future. There is a certain Hope in being able to afford to pay rent and eat regularly.
Right?
Success breeds Hope, which tends to counter depression.
So maybe you will see some change in her personality.
Here's to Hope.

There are a few ways how complete strangers waste our time: cashiers chitchatting with each other while taking their sweet time scanning your items at the checkout counters (this is why I use self-checkout whenever I can), in the parking lot when you are looking for a parking spot and someone is walking right in the middle of the driveway in front of your car, also in the parking lot where some car before you decides to stop right in the middle of the driveway and wait for a vacant spot and there’s not enough space for you to drive pass them, customer service personnel who doesn’t listen effectively or communicate well (let alone solving your problem that triggered the call), and, many people don’t realize this: reckless or irresponsible drivers who get into car accidents (not the careful and innocent drivers who are the victims of the same accidents), which then block the entire traffic for hours.
Its so important in this world to be wise and to know how to deal with any potential situation life could throw at you, I personally believe that you can always only do your best and that's it. So in the case of a time waster of any kind, if you show compassion for them and their point of view, perhaps even suggesting a means of solving their issue, and they still mope over the issue or don't show you that they are willing an the type of person to move onwards in that sense then you just know in your own mind that they are not the type of person to progress in life and that's certainly not the energy you want in your inner circle - affecting your own mindset an thus life. A lot of people may feel bad over the idea of coming away from someone in their life who is a time waster, however if you've identified that this person is the type to not want to focus on progression then you simply just have to have the courage to do the right thing for yourself - that doesn't mean that you don't have to be nice to them or ghost them but simply hold your boundaries in order to truly benefit yourself during this lifetime. You're not selfish, it's just that you're not foolish either...
Thanks for the inspiring video as always Alux!~~
7 years after graduation with no job 😭 was the most painful part of my entire life especially as the days, months and years passes by, I realized I am not getting any younger and if I don't start searching for some passive income opportunities while waiting to finally get a job, things might even gonna get worse 🤦♂️
Each day I pray that God should continue to guide and direct each and every one of us in every step we're taking to better our lives and the lives of family, loved ones and those around us 🙏🥺
Graduated from where?
@@ivanr4300ivey league😂😂
I am in 4th year of my graduation with no possibility of getting job too.i am also very worried,tensed,anxiety,stressed,depresse due to this. I think I will also end up like no job for years 💡
@@kaushik947 I pray by the Grace of God, you may not wait for as long as 5 years to secure yourself a job.
While searching for job now which must be your top priority, please don't forget to also focus on the things you're passionate about because in the long run, your passions may become a passive income generation source for you
I noticed at work how chaotic and random some days were so I made a simple grid chart. Days of the week along the top and hourly timings down the side. Then during the next few weeks I did just a tick when interruptions occurred. After that, I focussed on the areas with the most ticks. This time I made a new sheet for the busiest day and started to slot more info e.g. type of query, person etc. It helped to identify who was actually giving me the problems. It was quite useful, it identified one member of staff who needed more training. Another member of staff who was a time waster and thirdly, I identified other people's routines which clashed together giving me problems. Hope it helps.
No1. and 3 are spot on. Pretty much why I don't have friends. You gotta deal with the bs like making plans and them not showing up. Can't explain how many times it happened to me.
One of the best Alux videos in a long time. It is real, not like the usual advice assuming everyone is the CFO making bank.
Somebody finally said it. I get it. It's a channel about success but sometimes it comes off really superficial. Life is about waaay more than money. As cliché as it sounds. Still love the channel though

They Say They’ll Do Things But They Don’t, They Always Complain and Don’t Do Anything About It, Their Priorities are Different to Yours, They Won’t Meet You Halfway, They Talk About People, Not Ideas! X3 They Love the Drama x10…. They Lie or Exaggerate A Lot….
I’m dealing with this now with a co-worker. What makes it a challenge is the person is popular in the office, they are good at being the “class clown” so other people like them and even when they get back stabbed by this person… even though they complain and get frustrated, they eventually forget about it and go back to associating with them.
I’m doing my best to remain congenial and professional while quietly keeping my distance.
In my previous business in public relations consulting I could fill an encyclopedia with stories. One of the biggest is that "the money for the project will be in any day now." Right now one person who planning on creating a sustainable cruise ship just told me that one!😂
Ugh, regrettably I need some work on several habits. I need to listen to this over and pick the worst and focus on that!.
I currently have a coworker who loves the drama and makes things so much more than they are. But in her personal life and she constantly says she likes another coworker. I listen sometimes but only at work sometimes I stay on the phone to seems busy. Then dont really spend time on the phone after work.
I really appreciate this TH-cam channel for it's life changing informations!
Proudly an Aluxer!
thanks for the cool video
friend 1: she called regularly and unloaded on the same stories for 45 minutes.
friend 2: she constantly had drama with mate doing drugs and risky sexual behaviors
friend 3: plans for getting togethor on a saturday for lunch, shopping continually bailed because she was “ sick “ . [hungover]
friend 4: every conversation was about his “big record deals” , 50k in marshall amps, etc, etc. but cant book a local gig ? 🤔
friend 5 & 6: going thru divorces , want my time , companionship
when you get older you really examin the concept of time as a commodity. self preservation of your psyche.
[…..i cut bait on all of the above ….]
Lol I just went through and blocked a few people in my contact list who only hit me up for pointless things but needed this video to validate it. I spent way too much time being a nice guy
1 Saying something, then saying the same thing within a few seconds, adding no literal content
2 Making a known false statement, then adding "just kidding" so as to shake me down for an emotional response
3 Hiding or ignoring the fact, when true, that if various other people including me know what the one person is or is not doing and when would allow the rest of us to do something productive instead of remain on standby doing little or nothing (refer to "Gantt chart" on your favorite search engine)
4 Physically obstructing, as in a supermarket aisle, then giving an angel-face look as if being forced to react to her (it's nearly always female) makes the obstructive act worthwhile: it isn't!
Having time for someone you want in your life is not a waste of time.
Having conversation to neighbors to new friends just to have a social life is never a waste of time.
Making friends. Having a moments of happiness even you really don't know people you with.. is not a waste of time.
Be in a moment with no rewinds just be yourself and no regrets no asking in return just be who you are and do all your best on that moment is not a waste of time.
Just live in the present in be the best you can be in that time is NEVER a waste of time!
Thank you
❤❤❤❤❤ thanks so much for always enlighten my wisdom daily Alux
9:40 *Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, and snap minds discuss people.*
❤ I learned so much from you. Now Im also giving back 🎉
Where's the bonus point? Hehe!
Thanks Alux 🎉
It drives me nuts, when people can’t make up their mind where to go eat, I only hear “I don’t care, where do you want to go?” 😬. Make a decision!!
What if they really don’t care lol what matters is the time spent with you?
I don't who you are talking behind these videos; I totally appreciate what you do. Thank you❤
Very thanks for this great topic.
I seem to be too genuine, too serious, and too ambitious for most people. I expect the worst and do my best to have backup plans when I have to involve people in things or ask for help. In my heart of hearts, I always hope one day I will connect with adults who are pure of heart.
I have a friend who was supposed to meet me at 10 pm. The plan was for him to leave his car in the parking lot and then we’ll use my electric car so as to save gas. 5, 10 minutes have passed and I’ve heard nothing from him, and then 20 minutes later he called and told me that he got stuck at In&Out! He could’ve just let me known in advance so I could’ve used that time to charge my car! Effing annoying when people do not honor the time that has been agreed upon.
#12 IS IT!! I hate technology for this reason Alone! It make Insecure people WORSE! If you truly care sbout a person YOU can answer the phone. No swearing.
Real. (I don't have friends so realistically nobody wasting my time but myself) (I've been self improving tho)
What a good video this is brought a great many thing to light for me
Same here I was like damn!
I'm a huge time waster to other people because I hate confrontation it feels uncomfortable
My experience showing that,the very person is waiting my precious time, is when you give them assignments they will always keep waiting for you to call and reminder...
Try to pick up early on people that keep giving excuses instead of results.
Co workers arent friends either and other friends wont celebrate a birthday like i invited people but no they decided to work and they put themselves first before me
Perfect timing!
i m in the middle of the video and those 2 points are the detail best ----- ppl are not willing to travel to see u , i am also putting that part on my dating video ----------2nd one is not calling but texting
FLAKY! I remember when that was a fighting word (haven’t heard that since high school-which was over 30 years ago)!
Live long and prosper 🖖 alux lady ❤friend take care
No Bonus tip at the end ?
Very true! Positivity only! Progress only! Happiness only!
Most of the people I encounter is a time waster ..I choose to be alone.😊
Please I need advice, I have an idea of a software I will like to build as a business but I have not worked for any company before. Only some personal projects for my portfolio in order to help me get a job.
Should I focus on getting a job first and learn how things are done the standard way or should I build it with my current skill set and latter continue looking for a job.
NOTE: I am in Africa.

It's enough showing up to work... investing with a workaholic could very well "B" interpreted as a sign of aggression towards the investor... is it worth it? Probably Not..
Please could you make a sunday motivational video on dealing with the grief of a loved one.
Gossip contains valuable information. The most important decisions are made next to the coffee- maschine while waiting for one's turn.
No to Nr.12. I don't want people to call me.I don't call them, unless in case of an emergency.I want to read their messages when it suits me, not respond to their calls when it suits them. Most things can wait a bit and being interrupted by phone- calls isn't great. It calls for an immediate action.
My best friend earns a pretty crappy salary at a job which helps people and has no interest in moving from this. But if I called her at midnight with an emergency she would be there I’d never give up on her. But I had another friend who stole from me it was the end
Thank you Alux. ❤
Peoples number one complaint about me is that I move to slow
Alux just on time!
*Engaging in an individual market option is a fair but its performance level can’t generate high dividends. Diversification is the secret to optimal performance, that’s why I have my interest set on options based on projected growth and performance.*
When it comes to finance growth, it’s wrong to engage in a single option. I suggest diversifying into various options with high performance coupled with the experience and aid of a finance Pro will generate bigger dividends and balance volatility.
”Do not lay your eggs in one basket.” I engage on various options (real estate, real assets, index/mutual funds, ETFs, annuities, lDOs and many others) with the aid of my finance pro, and so far have acquired so much (amount is confidentiaI)

I am a baby boomer, I hate it wasting time texting when a simple phone call can resolve an issue within seconds, or less than a minute. Many times I have to ask others to call me instead.
A great Brief, Which every startup CEO should know and obey. Otherwise will fail sooner.
Take note of how going out for fun is not mentioned here
Anything or anyone that does not move you forward (in some way) is a waste of time!
I think actually it's not the fault of people that they waste our time rather we makes them allow to waste our time.
For this we invite them.
im glad to be an Aluxer

Are you a real human or just a AI generated voice ?
