Oh yeah, that new keyboard nowadays is mandatory hahaha she needs her own place, for me motivation comes from the same quote you use, "Memento Mori" but I personally add "Memento Vivere", cheers!
I think the solution is two identical keyboards with a splitter and a switch. That way when they decide they aren't in the way enough, you can trade keyboards with them and keep them from butt typing. Kind of like how with multiple animals, all the pet beds have to be big enough for the biggest animal, because otherwise the tiniest one will steal the biggest bed
I keep myself motivated by making sure my environment supports the goals I set for myself. I find I’m way less motivated when I surround myself with people, places, or even things (i.e. Xbox hehe) that don’t really align with the life I want to live. Also, kitty keyboard ✅
I started studying with my wife in the same room. We both have stuff to learn for personal or academic purposes but german universities are closed since 4 semesters. So to overcome the countless distractions at home we study next to each other to hold each other accountable. We don't study the same field or anything, but it helps keeping the focus because we don't want to disappoint the other person. For goals .. I should formulate some, but right now I tend to tumble from day to day between university and work and can be happy if I finish a semester without a burnout... so goals don't feel realistic right now beside "finish university before it finishes you"
Finishing university while working is a big and wonderful goal by itself. It is also positive that you consider your helth as well. I think people who didn't have their helth crash don't realy grasp how important it is.
@@marmusmula Thank you. Sadly I missed the chance to study without the necessity of earning my own money because of dumb decisions a couple of years ago. So now I have to stand on my own two feet while already paying back my student loans and pursuing a CS degree. If I don't watch out for my mental health, I accomplish neither of it, so health I always the first priority. So yeah, finishing that degree seems like a big goal. :)
Lol that phrase is going to stick. I agree with the importance of a accountability partner, I didn't realize how important it was till I started to go to Yoga with my sister and sin e the group is only of 5 people, the instructor already knows everyone so I feel in the need to not fail because of my sister and because of him.
You are so far the best content creator I come across. Lately I've been seriously struggling getting up and doing my school works. Although I wasn't able to join your study livestreams, I was able to get myself back on track with your other videos. And seeing what you've achieved and that you're still struggling but was able to consistently get up for your goal is a really nice thing.
Weight lifting has taught me a lot about willpower and goal setting. You don't notice much when you start, but If you stick to your routine and focus on it day to day (even the bad days), you'll soon amaze yourself with what you've accomplished. Then it becomes a joy. But really anything that makes you deal with discomfort makes you better.
I'm naturally driven so that's not an issue. However, I'm very emotional (passionate is another word). One thing that helps me the most is focusing on slow and controlled deep breaths, getting enough rest, and realizing that tomorrow is always a new day; a fresh start, a clean slate. Reset back to 0 and 0 (zero wins, zero losses). I know that I'm not just here fighting for myself. I'm here for those closest to me in my life. I focus on stringing together many days of efficient action. Self-discipline, patience, and consistency. Then there's *doing my best to align my behaviors to my intentions* ; this is a big one. Stacking together many small wins; base hits add up, not the home run days because that's not consistent or manageable. Making things incredibly easy for myself to succeed, by managing my time and breaking big problems and tasks into smaller ones. Appreciating what I have (gratitude). I would say these are not how I stay motivated. These are what help me get done what I need to get done. Just don't be a b**ch to myself and get out of my own way. * That's the truth, just get out of my own way.* I'm worthy. I am, so I'm proving it as best as I can every single new day. Today is a gift, that's why we call it The Present, so I try not to waste it; Edmund Lau (The Effective Engineer) says that "Time is your most limited and critical resource." We have to acknowledge this as often as possible throughout each day. I think that's what your video thumbnail made me feel immediately, so thank you for that reminder. I will achieve what I'm after. * I'm worth it. The ones I love are worth it.* So I'll keep on going for me and for them 🔥🔥🔥
I feel that me too finally could get this level of motivation, or whatever it's. We just look around and remember where we are and where we really wanted to be in an verry soon future, or what language you would like to know to watch your favorite tv shows without any suport, but only the fruit of your hard work that was learning such language. I feel blessed for that, even thought I'm just at the beggining.
I really like the "memento mori" on your card deck! It is actually quite similar to the quote that drives me to be a better scientist/person which is; "Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity" (Horace Mann). I will definitely be adding that quote to mine! Thank you for these videos!!!
The pack of cards sounds like a really good idea! I need something to help me finish my thesis, and to improve my health, and while micro habits are working, it feels like I'm still missing something. I might give them a try and see what happens! :D
You earn a new subscriber with this video. I am a full time worker and student, I know how difficult is manage everything, sometimes I think I will not achieve the goals or have time to do everything but in the end I usually can do, so what i am trying to say is, do not give up, even if you think you will not be able to get it. Good work!
Hi Tina! I just want to say I've been following your videos for quite some time and with your help, I was able to land my first data science job last year, using your methods! You definitely inspired me to keep going in my data science career. Thank you for all you do!
I am glad I decided to watch this now instead of adding it to my line of tabs containing things to watch/read later that I will never get to. Subbed to the study channel. I've been trying and failing for two years trying to build a time management and goal accountability system that actually works. I have all the time and resources I need to accomplish my goals, and I have endless initiative. I know because I have to reinitiate all my projects every six weeks! Also: Yes, build a boop board!
I'm taking notes for my PM certificate while watching and listening to your video 🤭 I always remember myself I am going to die, not only because of my anxiety but because I use that thought to stay motivated too! Instead of cards I place mindset quotes around my working space so I just lift my head up and read one. I have an agenda but I only use it for work and never look at it unless I need to remember myself what I have to do. I bought a house a out a year ago but it was in a not so good condition so I am slowly renovating it, so it became a huge motivation to keep improving myself and growing up professionally in order to be able to become independent. Let's keep up the good work everyone!!
I'm working my my MS in Data Science while maintaining my job as a PM and even though I'm only working 30 hours per week it's been a struggle to handle work, school, study, and my normal responsibilities. I really like the idea of something like live streaming study sessions every day... although instead of live streaming I've been trying to make myself stick around for 1-1:30 hours after class and post up in a study room. It's a nice way to keep myself from being distracted by my home environment. Thanks for sharing your strategies!
oh my god. we have the same breed of cat AND your struggles, ideas, and knowledge speak VOLUME. I've never been happier to subscribe and follow in your footsteps.
You have motivated me, as well! I love your tips and am definitely thinking about implementing 4-5 of them. In fact, I made two cards, one with goals and one with motivations, and took them into my therapy session today. Thank you!
Tina, I can´t even put in words how much my "default mode" is like yours. I watched the other video (Techniques I use to be more disciplined) where you talked about watching anime till your brain literally rots, omg, that is so so so much me! And then I would feel I complete failure. I intend to give a try at many of yours strategies and see if I can become a better person. Thank you so much for sharing! Xoxo from Brazil
I struggle with staying motivated to study as well, especially because my math skills are what I really need to improve, and that’s not as much fun. I think the cards are a great idea, I might have to steal that one!
I love this! Every January I create my goal map on a white board, with almost identical categories as your pack of cards. Each goal is specific and measurable. Been doing this for a few years now and totally agree that it helps motivate me to achieve my goals :)
Thank you so much for this one Tina Really found my TH-cam feed at the perfect time as i really struggle to get myself to study after starting a new job in a new city with my lovely girl which is also studying during this year, so the her help with your amazing tips (that I actually managed to implement some of them before watching 😇)gives me great support and motivation and also a system and a path to learn from😁 Thanks!!
I have been a part of your live streaming study sessions for a while now and that is one major thing that keeps me motivated through 4 days (now) a week. I did try and come up with a scoreboard of mine inspired by the ones on the group recently and am trying to focus on being consistent at using it. Also, I do follow a system of documenting my days both plans and actual execution and I end my day with a journal of things I accomplished that day, things I am grateful about and things I need to look out for the next day. For the first time in years, I have put in effort to come up with new year resolutions which can be easily converted into SMART Goals and split into tasks and systems. I must say, that it has been going great for now, which is surprisingly a good thing for a person like me. I am not good at coming back to things / systems like this after a break, especially if it is an unplanned, unaccounted break. So it is a challenge which I will have to wait and watch.
Thank you Tina, not sure if you'll ever come upon this comment but I found your channel by a youtube recommendation and I started watching your videos I am fascinated by data science and machine learning, I haven't finished my python course but your channel was really a motivation to keep going, I will do the cards system!
A Korean student here. you're my motivation. Your videos are literally the reason why I work hard. I can't imagine what would I be doing if I didn't discover your channel. Thank you so much, I really appreciate your contents
Thank you for the video :) I have a full time job, a side translation job and am working on my art business (growing TH-cam, publishing coloring books, picture books and more). Good luck everyone!
This is an awesome video. The idea of the systems and the fact that you report that they work, it's sooooo coool. I am trying to find my own systems that work with my goals. This is very helpful. Also, the ending of the video was hilarious---your cat was being mischievous!!! Your facial expression was great!
I recently stumbled across stocism and studied a little about it, now i'm seeing examples of it being referenced everywhere! Great to see, momento mori is a great grounding technique that I am learning to use too.
I really like the pack of cards idea. When I fall off track I usually try to write out my goals and what I want to change, which can get depressing when you're writing the same unfulfilled goals for years lol 😅. Plus I rarely revisit the writings. The pack of cards idea is a much better way of doing things. Thank you!
I did this for a few years and then hit severe burnout. No such things as a free lunch. It's very important to understand when to ease off and give yourself a proper break.
I LOVE this! I do something similar, basically system surrounding my values, then giving myself a note on why I value it, and habits that go with it. I made a whole planner around this concept. I find it difficult to convey the message to others, but you were able to make it easy to understand and relatable. I first heard of "memento mori" in a book called Bullsh*t Jobs, if you haven't already read it, I think you'd enjoy it. Looking forward to more of your videos! Cheers!
I loved this videos sponsor. 🤩 I am not easily motivated as well. That is why i right down everything i need to do in my calender as a to-do list and try to check as many as possible.
Wow. It's my phone's wallpaper. You made my day. I am 35 year old guy pursuing Data Science, I am currently at a point where my life has become a chaos. Its now or never, you will eventually die, if you do it or not. You are in control, just do it. Thank you for the video. Please also, do a video on how to achieve financial freedom, location freedom.
I am just like you , I don't have much motivation to study anytime even though i am a student, THe quote that " You don''t rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your system ", It really hit hard on me. Problem with me is I almost always design my daily routine and stuff but just don't follow it along during the day. but let us see, Now i am gonna enforce it in such a way which is gonna make it really hard for me to not do it.
you’re one of the best mentor for anyone trying to get their life straight and get moving, you’ve motivated me so much over the course of time. Thank you so much Tina🤍 alsoooo, the sponsor has my heart🥺
Last year I started studying CS while working full time as a translator. To even be able to enroll in the program I had to redo my math SAT, which meant that I'd have to go over 4-years worth of high school math after not touching math for 8 years and being bad at it in school, which was really cumbersome. So in order to motivate myself I kept telling everyone around me that I was going redo the math SAT and I made sure to tell them that a lot. That way, if I gave up, everyone around me would've known and I'd have to explain to them why I did that after hyping it up so much. It worked :D
I once saw a motivational talk by Anthony Robins at TedX and the one thing that really stuck with me was when he said "The people out there who sit on couch and watch movies and TV's shows they have already seen, get a fucking life". It really stuck because I do it, or used to. Sometimes there is nothing better than the safety and comfort of something we know. I think it's OK to do just, like anything in life, moderation is key. Love Your Work
Hey Tina, you might be better off reformulating your goals into the positive. With a goal of „not getting fired“ and „not dying alone“ you run the risk of manifesting the possibility of that happening and subconsciously move towards that (you drive to where you look ; you think about the pink elephant when you are told to not think about it)- also, not getting fired holds no progress, it’s stagnation. Wish you all the best!
Thank you for this motivational video, I really needed that. I will take inspiration from your motivation system and try to implement a simlilar one in my daily life. 😁 I work full-time and have decided to start my own youtube-channel, so I think I really am going to need this way of thinking from now on!!
I don't have a system but now realise I NEED one. I like your pack of cards system so will be doing that. I turned 38 last week and had a "oh shit I'm pushing 40 and need to get my life together" moment. I'm still riding that motivation wave but I know it won't last and I'll end up same place next year.
I'm amazed you think you don't work hard enough! I have it setup so TH-cam alerts me everytime you're streaming like everyday! You're in that 99.9th percentile
god she's so pretty... my new years resolution is to try and stay on top of my goal of starting a career in data engineering, and starting my CS degree in september. i will embrace the grind!
The pack of cards idea looks very useful, except I'd put both the category and the goal as the title of the card. Then, I'd write the skills necessary to achieve those goals below and cross-reference them with the skills I deem valuable as having (an Elizabeth Filips technique from here on YT).
That score system sounds really interesting to me tbh buuuut I couldn't make it too complicated as, for me, if I don't have a system in place, I get nowhere, but if I make my system TOO complex, I also get nowhere as I just get overwhelmed by it all.
Hi Tina, I don't know whether or not you will see this comment, but either way, I wanted to say that I've been watching a lot of your videos recently to learn how to hold myself more accountable when it comes to my studies, interests, etc. I find it super inspiring how upfront you are with the audience about your own insecurities, and the fact that you still struggle with motivation sometimes. It makes your advice feel very relatable, especially compared to other productivity youtubers who act like they have everything figured out already. Thanks for all of your hard work in giving this information to us for free!
I like the honesty in yr vids...I mean its not like....ohh let me churn up some lies for my new vid....rather it seems u r sharing everything truthfully right from the heart....rather than superficial stuff. Thanks
Really appreciate your study sessions. I was able to write about 26000 words towards my nanowrimo novel by just getting into the habit of logging in at a set time every week.
I love your videos^^ The best thing for me is that I can relate lots of things with you. The new year's resolution thing you said, it has happened with me many times. Every year I list down my resolutions but after some days I'm back to square zero😅 After discovering your channel I have been pretty much motivated and organised towards my studies, thanks to you. One of my fav thing learnt from you is to create a system for yourself to make a task your habit. I always planned to read something different everyday, but I wasn't consistent no matter what. So I started a telegram channel: "Whatever it takes", where I post one article/blog/video daily which I find interesting and different along with my thoughts on it. The topics are diverse like finance, technology, business, etc. This goes under my 2022 year's resolution to read something daily keeping myself updated. Being started it I have made myself responsible and mandatory to read daily, as the fear of not being able to put the stuff one day is far more embarrassing for me. Thankyou so much for your straight-to-the-point and helpful content.💗
The core thing that keep me highly motivated is to cut stuff. Everything that is draining my energy and not helping me reaching my goal I just throw that away periodically. It can be tasks, project, things I own I have to maintain, relationships, routine, hobby, etc. Work wonders!
how do you keep yourself motivated? ALSO should I build boop her own keyboard🐈⬛
Oh yeah, that new keyboard nowadays is mandatory hahaha she needs her own place, for me motivation comes from the same quote you use, "Memento Mori" but I personally add "Memento Vivere", cheers!
Nope, she/he? will still sit on your keyboard since it's your scent plus the heat he/she is attracted :} but you can try don't take my word on it.
I just yell dattebayo to keep myself motivated
I think the solution is two identical keyboards with a splitter and a switch. That way when they decide they aren't in the way enough, you can trade keyboards with them and keep them from butt typing. Kind of like how with multiple animals, all the pet beds have to be big enough for the biggest animal, because otherwise the tiniest one will steal the biggest bed

I'm 60 years old. I am still learning from you. Only advice from me is don't stop learning.
Would you say you have less fear of death compared to your youth?
I started studying with my wife in the same room. We both have stuff to learn for personal or academic purposes but german universities are closed since 4 semesters.

data professor!
I felt this soo fucking much!
Quote: "Other non-tracking goals:
-call family 1x a week
-Not die alone
-not get fired"
Everyday is my goal to not get fired
I deeply feel this !!!
I'm laughing so so hard over this 🤣

This is an awesome video. The idea of the systems and the fact that you report that they work, it's sooooo coool. I am trying to find my own systems that work with my goals. This is very helpful. Also, the ending of the video was hilarious---your cat was being mischievous!!! Your facial expression was great!
I recently stumbled across stocism and studied a little about it, now i'm seeing examples of it being referenced everywhere! Great to see, momento mori is a great grounding technique that I am learning to use too.
I really like the pack of cards idea. When I fall off track I usually try to write out my goals and what I want to change, which can get depressing when you're writing the same unfulfilled goals for years lol 😅. Plus I rarely revisit the writings. The pack of cards idea is a much better way of doing things. Thank you!
I did this for a few years and then hit severe burnout. No such things as a free lunch. It's very important to understand when to ease off and give yourself a proper break.
I LOVE this! I do something similar, basically system surrounding my values, then giving myself a note on why I value it, and habits that go with it. I made a whole planner around this concept. I find it difficult to convey the message to others, but you were able to make it easy to understand and relatable. I first heard of "memento mori" in a book called Bullsh*t Jobs, if you haven't already read it, I think you'd enjoy it. Looking forward to more of your videos! Cheers!
thats so smart, gonna give it a try! thanks
I'm loving the pack of cards idea
I loved this videos sponsor. 🤩 I am not easily motivated as well. That is why i right down everything i need to do in my calender as a to-do list and try to check as many as possible.
Wow. It's my phone's wallpaper. You made my day. I am 35 year old guy pursuing Data Science, I am currently at a point where my life has become a chaos. Its now or never, you will eventually die, if you do it or not. You are in control, just do it. Thank you for the video.
Please also, do a video on how to achieve financial freedom, location freedom.
"Its now or never, you will eventually die" that's what i feel like! let's get it in the new year!
Awesome video and information. Thanks.
I am just like you , I don't have much motivation to study anytime even though i am a student,
THe quote that " You don''t rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your system ", It really hit hard on me.
Problem with me is I almost always design my daily routine and stuff but just don't follow it along during the day.
but let us see, Now i am gonna enforce it in such a way which is gonna make it really hard for me to not do it.
you’re one of the best mentor for anyone trying to get their life straight and get moving, you’ve motivated me so much over the course of time. Thank you so much Tina🤍 alsoooo, the sponsor has my heart🥺
I really love you Tina, you motivate me alot
Last year I started studying CS while working full time as a translator. To even be able to enroll in the program I had to redo my math SAT, which meant that I'd have to go over 4-years worth of high school math after not touching math for 8 years and being bad at it in school, which was really cumbersome. So in order to motivate myself I kept telling everyone around me that I was going redo the math SAT and I made sure to tell them that a lot. That way, if I gave up, everyone around me would've known and I'd have to explain to them why I did that after hyping it up so much. It worked :D
I link yours vids because you're too human and... I like it!
I once saw a motivational talk by Anthony Robins at TedX and the one thing that really stuck with me was when he said "The people out there who sit on couch and watch movies and TV's shows they have already seen, get a fucking life". It really stuck because I do it, or used to. Sometimes there is nothing better than the safety and comfort of something we know. I think it's OK to do just, like anything in life, moderation is key. Love Your Work
thanks for sharing your articulated perspective
Kindred spirit, I shall watch your videos. They please me greatly. The relatability is unnerving.
Love this vid. Put my mind in the right headspace for my goals.
Definitely going to incorporate the card system. Thank you.
Flattered I could be a catalyst!
yes I'm deathly afraid of you tbh
1st time watching a video from ur channel this year ,happy new year Tina
your vids always push me to work more thnx
You just earned a subscriber. I believe we are gonna make it. I found this video inspiring. Thank you very much.
Hey Tina, you might be better off reformulating your goals into the positive. With a goal of „not getting fired“ and „not dying alone“ you run the risk of manifesting the possibility of that happening and subconsciously move towards that (you drive to where you look ; you think about the pink elephant when you are told to not think about it)- also, not getting fired holds no progress, it’s stagnation. Wish you all the best!
Thank you for this motivational video, I really needed that. I will take inspiration from your motivation system and try to implement a simlilar one in my daily life. 😁 I work full-time and have decided to start my own youtube-channel, so I think I really am going to need this way of thinking from now on!!
Thank you, I've developed strong habits but you're videos has shown be the importance of goals.
i did this for about a year and ended up hospitalized (i was malnourished among other things). like, it's okay if this routine just isn't for you...
I don't have a system but now realise I NEED one. I like your pack of cards system so will be doing that.
I turned 38 last week and had a "oh shit I'm pushing 40 and need to get my life together" moment. I'm still riding that motivation wave but I know it won't last and I'll end up same place next year.
I'll try the card thing, thank you!!!
thank you for sharing your experience with us. I also think sometimes that I can't accomplish anything in my life. BTW I am a big Naruto fan
I'm amazed you think you don't work hard enough! I have it setup so TH-cam alerts me everytime you're streaming like everyday! You're in that 99.9th percentile
I just remember that am broke, and I need to put in some work
god she's so pretty...
my new years resolution is to try and stay on top of my goal of starting a career in data engineering, and starting my CS degree in september. i will embrace the grind!
Wow! This was right on time!
fave sponsor video ever! :D i also have to accept that i have weak ass willpower and lofty goals! thanks for sharing your systems that work for you :)
You rock !!! Creating a pack of cards stat :)
Needed this video today
The pack of cards idea looks very useful, except I'd put both the category and the goal as the title of the card. Then, I'd write the skills necessary to achieve those goals below and cross-reference them with the skills I deem valuable as having (an Elizabeth Filips technique from here on YT).
That score system sounds really interesting to me tbh
buuuut I couldn't make it too complicated as, for me, if I don't have a system in place, I get nowhere, but if I make my system TOO complex, I also get nowhere as I just get overwhelmed by it all.
Awesome thanks FOR SHARING!
Hi Tina, I don't know whether or not you will see this comment, but either way, I wanted to say that I've been watching a lot of your videos recently to learn how to hold myself more accountable when it comes to my studies, interests, etc. I find it super inspiring how upfront you are with the audience about your own insecurities, and the fact that you still struggle with motivation sometimes. It makes your advice feel very relatable, especially compared to other productivity youtubers who act like they have everything figured out already. Thanks for all of your hard work in giving this information to us for free!
I like the honesty in yr vids...I mean its not like....ohh let me churn up some lies for my new vid....rather it seems u r sharing everything truthfully right from the heart....rather than superficial stuff.
Thanks
As someone curently going through an existential crisis, the thumbnail was very unnerving. About to watch the video
What a title.
Love it!
Definitely going to start using the pack of cards, Great video!
Needed this video 🌼🌞
Really appreciate your study sessions. I was able to write about 26000 words towards my nanowrimo novel by just getting into the habit of logging in at a set time every week.
you forgot the "t" in "systems" in "you fall to the level of your systems" quote. this is my best contribution, i'm proud of myself for trying. XD
The best thing about grit: it is something that can be developed and trained for. You do not have to be born with grit to become successful in life.
YESS BOOP SHOULD GET HIS/HER OWN KEYBOARD :)))
I'll will incorporate the cards totally .
The card system sounds like it would really help me, i'll try using it thanks!
These are so great! I really want to start with all these because I'm at that point in my life but I'm not sure where to start.
I love the pack of cards idea! I’m totally borrowing….stealing…no borrowing it.
I love your videos^^ The best thing for me is that I can relate lots of things with you. The new year's resolution thing you said, it has happened with me many times. Every year I list down my resolutions but after some days I'm back to square zero😅 After discovering your channel I have been pretty much motivated and organised towards my studies, thanks to you. One of my fav thing learnt from you is to create a system for yourself to make a task your habit. I always planned to read something different everyday, but I wasn't consistent no matter what. So I started a telegram channel: "Whatever it takes", where I post one article/blog/video daily which I find interesting and different along with my thoughts on it. The topics are diverse like finance, technology, business, etc. This goes under my 2022 year's resolution to read something daily keeping myself updated. Being started it I have made myself responsible and mandatory to read daily, as the fear of not being able to put the stuff one day is far more embarrassing for me. Thankyou so much for your straight-to-the-point and helpful content.💗
Tina... Your plants are multiplying...
O.O
The core thing that keep me highly motivated is to cut stuff. Everything that is draining my energy and not helping me reaching my goal I just throw that away periodically.
It can be tasks, project, things I own I have to maintain, relationships, routine, hobby, etc. Work wonders!
