    My hand is happily hurting from actually pausing and doing the journal prompts. I usually just watch these videos and answer them in my mind…. But this one convicted me to do the journaling on-the-spot… and I am so grateful I chose to. My North Star has more clarity and I feel the magic of manifesting with handwriting. Now I am excited to continue the series and complete the prompts. This is, and you are, a gem in this world.

      you feel lost in life because you do not know what is this all about , you do not have a vision , you do not have a purpose, even if you are super productive you still don't know where would all this end , what is the next step , what is the next level , what is THE TRUTH .
      every single question about everything will be answered if you read the Quran , and I challenge you if you won't be the happiest person on earth after reading it , every mystery would be revealed , and everything will be clear , that's when you will start living .

It talks about what gods command us to do or stories of the prophets, but it doesn't really answer to that life mission . I do know we are on earth to serve god , but as what you should be doing to make a living or anything else it is not helpful to me . Do you have any tips ? @@salimmahieddine8039

    Anxiety ridden to a crippling, self-destructive extent since I can remember, I have been very much lost. Until I happened upon and watched this series and can suddenly see some sort of clarity and hope. Possibly the best TH-cam video(s), and career/ambition advice period, I've ever seen. Have to say, Ali, your presentation style is a breath of fresh air: so decent, down to earth, accessible and relatable. Thank you.

Yes, it's overwhelming and sometimes painful to feel lost. But ultimately, it is a privilege.

    I’ve been half though the video when I asked myself “What would I do if I couldn’t fail?” I lied in bed for 10 minutes thinking about all of my thoughts on my life purpose. And then I found it. I couldn’t believe the thought at first. It’s been buried deep under repeated fear thoughts that my mom once brought into my mind. I allowed myself to follow it and realized that’s what I always wanted to do. I’ve been looking for the answer for years and I finally found it. Thank you so much.

    I really loved this video, I made it to the end even though it took me a few hours because I kept stopping to think and hand wrote 4x A4 pages of responses to the prompts. I've felt really lost the past few years. As a high achiever in school and university I thought I wanted the "typical corporate career", working my way up to some kind of management role that would be secure and make me a comfortable living, because that's what I was told "smart" people do. But my life drastically shifted when I realised I in fact do not want that, and I have no idea what I really want, but I always thought I couldn't make a career based around my passions. This video really got me thinking about what I want and why, and I just want to say that I really truly value this content for how much it helps people. I'm 23 and I know that thinking about these things at this age is so powerful because it gives me hope that I can build the life I dream about. So thank you Ali :)

    I’m training as a Psychotherapist, and there’s a lot made of the ‘therapeutic alliance’ in other words if you feel comfortable with the therapist success is more likely regardless of therapeutic modality used (much more to it than this just being very brief!) but relevance to here is that with all the content that is out there and often it’s the same thing said but repackaged, different aesthetic, academic, informal etc, I tend to listen to people I feel connected to it’s how, in part our species has evolved through co-development and sharing. With Ali I feel same way, there’s a sense with him of wanting to genuinely help, understanding of vulnerability, and subjectivity of human experience. His advice is always sincere and for the betterment of others. Best wishes Ali with everything!

    One thing help me to figure out what I want is self awareness, this takes time and you have to experience a lot in order to know what are your values/strength/weakness and from that you can start navigating
    Second thing is to accept being lost don't fight it, the vesion will get clearer slowly and being lost is what drive us to move forward and try new things
    Thank you Ali and all team who was behind this

    In the role model prompt :
    Who are the people you most admire and why?
    And : it's always been Ali Abdaal ever since I found out about this TH-cam channel. Probably the reason was, in my point of view, you were living your life more flexible , realistic and intentional as much as possible.
    Qualities: The insights that you preach through your videos are
    1. Experiment with life.
    2. Make things more funnier.
    3. Productivity

    I am finding this to be a helpful video for the work I do as a behavioral/mental health therapist/clinician. It can be difficult in the moment with clients who are struggling with this dilemma as it is a contributing factor to whatever they are presenting for in therapy. I will be trying this out for myself first so that I know what the process feels like and then adding this video to the Google doc so have been developing to share with the people I work with and my own support system. Thank Ali! Side note: your book is [chef’s kiss].

    You are wise beyond your years. I hope and pray to find high quality, humble, approachable, respect-worthy people like you in my and my kid’s life in addition to who we already have. I like that you’re not submerged nor defined by jaded, critical, insecure opinionatedness or judgmentalism. A huge thank you for that. Keep up the good character and thank you for being an invaluable life coach and mentor for so many. May the blessing of the Holy Trinity be with you and yours always.

    So, I first discovered this video after Ali's 09/2024 100 Days of Productivity Workshop😍. And have been following Ali for at least 4 years. His videos have really inspired many changes in my life. THANK YOU. I added to Todoist a task to watch this video. And took me about 2 hours to do all the excercises he proposes. I created a page on my Notion, took screenshots of the questions and answered each of them, pausing the video as many times as necessary. Also, the obituary excercise at the end with ChatGPT blowed my mind.🤯🤯
    If you're going to watch this video, take the time to take full advatange of it. 💖
    And Ali, if you're reading this: THANK YOU. Hope to meet you one day.
    Greetings from Mallorca, Spain.

    This video is great Ali, thank you ! Anyone who enjoyed this I highly recommend a book called “the 7 habits of highly effective people” it’s got a philosophy very similar to the one Ali uses in this video. It really helped me personally with finding purpose with different exercises and it would go perfect with this video, especially if you apply the concepts (which is the key part).

    @tubesticker 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    "Know yourself" is an important one. Maybe the most important one. And to truly know yourself you need to be able to leave the beaten path and out of your own bottle, as you say it. You have to "lose yourself". I feel that this productivity-, lists-, plans- etc. thing has a lot to do with feeling in control and feeling that you're going somewhere, but it's actually keeping you trapped in the bottle because it's too timid and too rational. I also feel that religious rules do that - they have the purpose to maintain order, but in order to lose yourself you must enter chaos. So what I would say you should do if you feel lost: embrace it and lose yourself even more - it's an opportunity to learn something about yourself, but for that you must be "truly" lost first.

    Thanks for this video Ali. I have been feeling lost for quite a while and I am making steps towards figuring stuff out but it is an up and down path so far.. The last week was one that I felt completely out of it and going nowhere.. My girlfriend saw your video and forward it to me. And that was a great gift.
    The way you approached the topic with all the different angles helped me to get some more clarity and prioritise ideas I have in my head.

    I love this. Really insightful exercises.
    I had a bit of a revelation with the 'Fail-Proof Dream Prompt'.
    Even if I knew I would fail at becoming a Value Creator on TH-cam, I would actually still pursue it because of the skills it gives me, the knowledge it would give me about myself, it would help me towards my other goals, it would help others, and it would be fun.
    I never think about things besides the monetary value it can create for me. The wealth of knowledge this pursuit would give me is extremely worthwhile. Money would just be a cherry on top.
    Thanks for bringing this very rare side of me out :)

Thanks Again.

    I've been watching your channel for some years now, and this video (and hopefully the whole series) is really something else. You've produced a lot of awesome content, (I kinda miss some tech reviews. I bought the uniball pen because of you, haha) but this one is really another level. I'm reading your book, it's fun to see how all the research and preparation to organize your thoughts around the theme are finding more ways out.
    Thanks for the amazing work you do. Cheers!!

    Dear Ali,
    I'm immensely grateful to you for guiding me in discovering my true calling. Despite being a doctor by profession, the past couple of years, especially while raising my kids, unveiled a realization that medicine was not my genuine passion.
    Recently, I stumbled upon your channel, and your videos deeply resonated with me. They have inspired me to wholeheartedly pursue my long-neglected passion for creativity, which has always fueled my energy and motivation. Despite societal expectations, particularly growing up in a family of doctors, I now understand that I am a multipotentialite and thrive in engaging with diverse interests.
    As I plan for the upcoming year, I am committed to taking the necessary steps to align my life with my true passions. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a catalyst in this transformative journey.

It's something I never thought of before and made me think of death and the end of my life as a completion of a worthwhile journey. I really appreciate that section the most !
