Am I’m the only one that feels like I’m addicted to TH-cam? I feel like I spend more than half the day just watching countless videos or reading the comments
at least u made hacksaw ridge
That's why he suggested the DF tube extension.
Same here. I've got a thousand videos in my "watch later" playlist. And I just keep. Gathering more.
EXACTLY.
It was designed to be addictive. I'm also noticing how powerful that is. I think I need to stick to a set time to watch videos like Joey says.
I like how he shows that he's like everyone else, who plays games, gets distracted, hangs out with friends etc.
He is like me except I don't have friends to hang out with 😁😁
@@kikru5542 same
he worked for it
That's what the best mentors do, they tell you that it's okay to not be okay sometimes, it's okay to have it difficult to achieve your goals, or to have fun and distract yourself for some moments just to relax, the point is to never stop believing in yourself , to work on achieving your goals one step at a time, and at the same time to enjoy your present moment, to enjoy life.
@@kikru5542 How is your life now?
My theory is, the more self improvement videos you watch, and your slowly hearing the same things over and over, you start to feel the accomplishment without even doing anything to improve your life, and then you stay the same, but you feel like you you’ve changed, just because you know how to change.
mind = blown !
SPOT ON !
That’s it
Wow
U just slapped me with reality
Facts!! Haha that’s why I turn on one of these videos to do my laundry or clean my room😅
frrrr
I swear it feels like this man uploads videos specifically for my issues
Literally
True
because you are not special, everyone is like that nowadays
I was just telling exactly that to my husband 😳
Bc we all have these issues
Also, this has to be my favorite self-improvement channel. It's succinct, fun, down-to-earth, relevant, and really approachable and honest! Big fan of Better Ideas!!
I agree. A lot of people can talk for hours without saying half as much. Their videos remind me of the essays you write in high school with word count requirements and approximately zero chance the teacher would actually take the time to read.
Me too!!!
Same and also i like his face expression haha
Chiidawg! First I love that name haha! This is definitely one of the best out there, the way he breaks down concepts makes you feel unstoppable!
@@JoshAngel lmao, thanks, I'm admittedly really embarrassed about this username and wish I hadn't commented so soon. Now I'm reluctant to share this video to my friends as they might find my YT profile, LOL
Due to the recommended bar on yt I ended up here. And for once I didn’t mind going down the rabbit hole :) I really enjoy your channel!
Me too:))
Good, now get to work
I'm sure he knows that. Similar to people with facebook who overshare anything.
same here
it’s all about sniffing out the rabbit hole to make sure there’s not some sort of corpse first
"your bedroom is for sleeping"
Him: Has a giant TV in his room.
When Joey set an alarm on his Google Home Mini, it set an alarm on my own Google Home Mini LMAO
same
That's the algorithms blessing you and your home
Mine too lol
this just happened lol
“It’s the show with hot questions and even hotter wings”
Oh wait...
Dezi AHAHAHA
lmao
Cannot unthink that
😭
Literally!
Nice examples! You're a natural teacher.
Thanks a lot for mentioning about the DF TH-cam extension. I do not use social media much but TH-cam is one place where I get lost watching videos after videos with not much real use. I paused the video then and there to install the extension. I think it's gonna be a life changer. Thanks again!
I follow a handful of self improvement channels, but your content always sticks out as unique and supremely helpful. Thank you
12:37 The amount of time we spend believing we can't is more than enough time to learn how you can.
The first point is spot on. Breaking down boring tasks into smaller components is my preferred way to get through to the larger goal.
Last week I ran my first 5k without stopping and all the time I could hear the voice in my head saying that I can do it. Forwago, thank you so much for everything!!
yeah, it's a good program, it helped me out a lot
This gives me hope, I’ll try it!!!
"Each room should have a specific use" -> I have a 1-room apartment. Yay...
I guess you can separate certain areas of the apartment for its specific purposes, and somewhat execute the same concept that he's trying to emphasize about everything having an unbothered, intended meaning (in order to achieve true productivity).
I was looking for this comment
this guy has been huge in getting me out of the gutter!
"The ability to actively concetrate on one thing for long periods of time without getting distracted isn't just one solution for succeeding in the digital age, it's THE solution." 💯 🔥
Thank you so much for mentioning the DF Tube extension. I am confident that this will save hours of my time since I always get distracted by the recommendations. Your videos have completely changed my life for the better.
4:55: "Tidy your room - This all might sound like a total sidetrack rabbit hole......."
*Jordan Peterson: Am I a joke to you?*
This comment deserves an applause hahaha
This was so funny
i think he was calling the bit about his phone charger the sidetrack
He said it before talking about fake wood phone charger.
Many see forex as a get rich scheme but forex is not like that, it's a gradual process with the right tools and application you can make a living from forex trading..
Forex trading is all about win and loss, the chances of loss is much higher when you don't follow the right step... It's a very simple logic
Forex trading is very simple and more profitable when you invest under guidance of an expert
People will be kicking themselves in a few years if they miss this precious opportunity to trade and invest in binary options this period
@Emily Smith You are right, I thought I knew it all when I was practicing with my demo account
But I lost a lot of money when I began my life trading, I had to look for a professional trader to help me with my trade
The fact that this guy began in a state worse than I am now is motivating. Also, these videos are very well made.
Thanks for video. The focus is the most important thing in our life nowadays and it seems to me, that it’ll be the most important things after thousand years
the best thing about your videos is that you are realistic. I can relate to you, and therefore trust you when you give us tips like these. It is my first time commenting on a video, but your videos especially this one, I just had to deliver a sort of gratitude to you for making this. Thanks for the very informative content.
Cheers
So glad I found your channel! I’ve been in a rut following knee surgery but getting my sh** together now.
I find the Pomodoro technique very useful for focus. 25 minutes of sheer concentration and a 5 minute short pause. After 4 pomodoro sessions, I allow myself a 10-15 minute long pause. It works because when you start to tire yourself, the pause comes. I've been able to do so much using it and I can't recommend it enough. Of course, people are different and it might not work for everyone, but it's sure worth trying.
This was awesome, really agree on the role environment plays in life. Also, Thomas Frank is great.
Practical Inspiration I couldn’t agree more! You need to setup triggers in your environment that keep you focused and remind you of why you’re doing what you’re doing! Thomas is the man too!
Ngl, I've watched a lot of self-help videos, but this by far is my favourite and most-realistic. Thanks you!
Being able to focus on one thing is important and I'm sure it has a great impact on ones self-improvement, but to be honest I find the most important skill to improve is ability to self-reflect. I meet so many people who never reflect on what they do, they don't question and they don't learn from their experiences. If you don't self-reflect you won't know that you need to work on yourself.
Intentionality is great advice!
I wish I could FOCUS enough to watch this whole video in one sitting.
Yes Deepwork is crazy crazy crazy EFFECTIVE
I used to do this on my own with math: all electronics off except the laptop for math purposes, with earplugs in I'd fully engage with the topic for about two hours straight and got completely dissolved into it. Mind you that it got my whole physique involved as with this level of absorbtion there's loads of active visualisation and verbalisations going on in order to relate stuff and see the (wider) picture. The learning is... much deeper, visceral? It's like you become the object of study 😂
Intens focus is... intensly satisfying and addictive even. I guess it's peak-experience category.
Keep 'm comin !
DF youtube is the best recommendation I've gotten in a long time.. Thank you!!
There’s a video titled,
“Cop rescues baby that fell into 8ft vent” in my side bar. But I’m not going to watch it because I am strong! 💪🏿
I appreciate your content. You’re doing by far the most intelligible and valuable self improvement content on TH-cam man!
you are so motivated i listen you you are amazing 🤗🤗
It must take forever to produce these really high quality videos. In saying that, I'm ready for the memes on channel no. 2!
4:53 I love the instant change up to where it starts to sound a little like an ad...but then you're like 'NO THAT'S DUMB, DONT DO IT' 😂👏🏽
I dont know If he reads his Komments but this changed my life. He had really hard time..and now ? He just grows, I love especially how he talks English so professional 😊😊 Respect 👏
FINALLY! Something useful and positive. Glad I found your channel!
Every word from him just makes sense to me and his pronunciation is so clear which is I also can improve my English and mindset.
"People put it off and distract themselves (shows Apex Legends)"
He's coming after me.
replace texting with calls
and stop texting at all times
only use texting to schedule things
I love u man! You literaly saying what I need to hear👌 Thank you !!
these extensions are great.
I tried the difference using google's incognito browsing and there is no comparison.
Thank you very much
Things you described are very common but uncommon for the mind
I love the way you cut to the chase
my room is a kitchen, bedroom, workspace and a living area...not much i can do, but ima give it a shot
I know this is three years old, but definitely loved it.
Okay, the YT extension. A life changer.
Nobody:
Joey in every video: It's INTEGRAL!
i started keeping my phone laptop on different room and it was a huge impact
This man knows what he's doing. He is good. The main thing is motivation 💯
first time i came across a yt video so relatble. the definition of genius isnt iq anymore its more like the ability to focus and concentrate. and thanks DF YT extension i was searching for something similar for like ages, i subbed your channel, keep up the good work !
Thank you man.
The rest is up to me now.
In order to be productive I try to do a little every day. It seems to work for me. Read a little, watch some news, work on my my projects. I also turn of all my notifications on my phone so I can still charge it. As it connects to my Homepod and the desktop spotify cant. I also work late at night. Its weird but works best. Like 7pm to midnight. During the day I play videogames, read, watch tutorials, write and read emails. And at night I turn off everything distracting and just knock out my editing or writing. Only thing I seem to be unable to knock is scrolling 9gag after midnight.
I’m convinced that everyone named Joe has to be bald
🤣🤣
Have you watched 'You'
Thanks...enjoy the Journey 🌎
My main man 👞 drop that word of wise 🦉
Much appreciated time with your lessons. Thank you 💕 sir.
I love your sense of humor!
"goodnight google" ... that sequence made me laugh so hard! Thank you for amazingly motivating videos.
Thanks for the advice Mark!
Right now I have been watching this video in 2 am.This is pretty funny but also same time weird,harmful for myself.Each lesson (no matter where)I felling what I lose my entire attention to work.
This man got more respect outta me as soon as i saw Fantano
not me sweeping the floor listening to this instead of writing my essay and you literally calling me out wtf
Fantastic video! I would add that daily mindfulness meditation practice massively helps with training your mind to concentration. I used to have concentration, memory issues and couldn't stop daydreaming all day and daily meditation practice was a significant reason as to why I overcame those issues.
1 thing that helped me was creating another account on my pc, and another google account, just for work/school. I dont search anything there that doesnt have to do with it so i dont fall into the algorithm trap.
It's not often that I relate to someone so much in a video in way of thinking and habits. All the way down to thanking and saying good night to my Google Home Mini.
I love how Joey looks at his own videos in the first 10 seconds and be like, "What the fuck?!"
Your videos give me good feeling
“Clean your room”
- Dr Jordan Peterson
sadly he's a twat though, and biased to religion, but occasionally he makes good commentary
MostlyLoveOfMusic he inspires millions of people including myself to be a better version of themselves and you would do well to watch what you say about people you don’t know
@@folatooreal8582 okay, "twat" was a bit strong but his calls to religion and his interpretations of gender roles are particularly troubling and undesirable in my opinion
@@folatooreal8582 I disagree with Peterson more than half of the time, stop being a blind follower is my advice
xrmoff I’m glad you have a kid if your own. I also have one, and if I’ve implied in anyway I simply just go with whatever comes out his mouth I do not mean that
This guy is really unique in how he makes high quality self-help vids but has the “ordinary guy” vibe
you always have great ideas to do simplest things ,
wonderful! I'm loving your videos, from Fortaleza, Ceará - Brazil
Literally the 1% who is reading this, God bless you, stay safe, and have a wonderful day 😊(my dream is to become a famous TH-camr) Thanks.🙏
1 important skill to improving your life:
Get good at guessing lottery numbers
Nough said
it's so sad that I can't like this video more than once as I watch it each time.
Id argue one of the most skills is controlling your emotions. I just started screwing off (watching this) because something at work ticked me off. Had I not been angry I would be being more productive. If you can prevent emotional derailment it becomes much easier to stay on target and accomplish your goals
him: the ability to concentrate is all you need
me: watches video for 5 minuets and scrolls to the comments
smh
I like your smile, attitude and tricks.
It's cool
Investing in crypto now is very cool especially with the current rise in the market now
Yes you are right
Thanks for introducing me to Mrs Allen
People are scared of investing because of the high rate of scam in the business
My first investment with Mrs Allen Lisa gave me profit of over $24,000 Us dollars and even since then she has never failed to deliver and I can even say she's the most sincere broker I have known
Mrs Allen Lisa is obviously the best, I invested $3,000 and she made profit of $28,000 for me just in 15days
Thank you very much for this bro
Thanks for setting my alarm for tomorrow at 8am.
Bro ... ur on point 100
Great ideas 💡
I’m going to try this
I think l’m the most easily distracted person on this planet.
Especially when it’s comes to you tube.
Thanks for this video
God Bless ❤
6:40 I get it's a joke, but you can actually set it that it is listening a few seconds after it said something so you can thank it or something.
Love your videos, they're so insightful and funny! You're good!! Congrats!
I wish I watched these videos when I was a student
This video is very helpful. I deleted my SNS apps from my phone just now. The only thing which is bad for me is that extensions for chrome aren't reliable in many cases. The DF tube seems very good for productivity, so this is too bad for me.
08:40
Just FYI---You could change to Theatre mode pressing T----you can focus on one video WITHOUT full screen.
I watch this video while writing an essay and not making progress
6:33 Joey's life hack. Google device required.
Great tips, thanks so much!
its forest gump model. he achived not because he was intelligent but because he could focus on boring stuff for hours on end and and got good at it.
Design your digital environment,,, real word boss
Another thing I would add in there is meditation. Either mindfulness meditation or concentration meditation. They’re both very helpful for training your focus(less so mindfulness meditation, but still).
There’s nothing wrong with training your focus by doing productive things, but I think meditation has a greater effect. Meditation is the training ground for the mind. It’s sort of like trying to lift heavy objects when you have muscle atrophy. Meditation is going to the gym so you can build your focus muscles and life the heavy objects.
6:47 aww 😊
Get focus is everything....👍👍
Thank you man :)
better skill just say "eh might as well" best skill i ever learned
