There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.
1. Define the task - uncertainty around task = more procrastination 2.

I find that the main contributor to my procrastinating at this point in my life is the fact of being in lots of physical pain. I am 57, and my job is very physical. At the end of the day, I am a knot of muscle cramps, sore and tired, on top of knee and back problems. All I want to do is veg out. I do manage to get some things done, like finding the time (once in a while) to stretch, and I am a student, and I get my work done. But the 10,000 other ambitions I have languish. Mostly.
I actually bought the book because of your recommendation and one of the best turning points of my life ever. The main point of the books is we procrastinate because stress, guilt and shame make is suffer. And procrastinate is a quick but short term way to end our suffering. So right thing is compassion to stop the negative associate with the work.
Please don't do that. Internet memes are funny but the video and the message of the book are incredible if you're really interested in dealing with procrastination. As someone before me said the third chapter is the practical stuff so if you can, get the book and read the third chapter.
Hidden Time Wealth is so unique. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard about it sooner. It’s amazing how life-changing this can be for anyone battling procrastination.
Discovering Hidden Time Wealth has been one of the best things I've done for my productivity. It feels like I’ve finally cracked the code to overcoming procrastination.
Every youtuber who talks about this all make videos with bait that they have "the definitive solution", as if they are likely the first or only ones who have finally cracked it and the viewer has just been so lucky and blessed to have stumbled upon their channel with the life-changing answer. And then this happens: The "solution" is basically all the same tired talking points that all the others offer with the same baity notions, and like all the rest are either 1. Drawn out long enough for ads and sponsorships, 2. Incomplete in their consideration, 3. Poorly communicated in some way, 4. Overly scripted but still misses major points somehow or 5. All the above. I got half way through this and correctly predicted this to be just another one of those videos, but in a "trust me bro, let me speak at ya with my face right in the cam so I look more personal and real about it."
I would like to add that he also was like "ask an AI" not realizing that all LLM are is just the word auto complete on your phone suggesting the next word and only giving you the most coherent responses. I hate it when people claim that AI has the answers to your problems
Exactly my thoughts! TH-cam's algorithm still keeps washing this stuff into my suggestions, probably because I am interested in topics like organisation and productivity. Annoying...
Great camera work and backing music Giles! Sometimes I feel like I procrastinate on things because I like to think about and get excited about a project and those feelings are maybe better than the actual doing 🤔
There are certain concerns about privacy, when it comes to Opera. If you are an average Joe, then its less of an issue, but, if you delved deeper into privacy space and find out that keeping your data more secure is important, then, check the cons and pros of Opera. PS: Thanks for the video, btw.
I had to learn to slow down, and focus on my intention was for the project. A meditation book called 30 Days to Overcome Procrastination by Corin Devaso helped a lot.
well, I have no relation whatsoever with python programming, but, in the recent times you have becoming my favorite book tuber. Looking forward to more such videos, I am sure, we all would like some reviews from your fiction book shelf as well.
When "checking" a book off the shelf I often separate the references pages from the rest of the book. If it is about roughly 1/3 references to 2/3 material in thickness I give it a peruse, scan the Table of Contents, fast scan/fan the pages, and make a decision. If I choose against getting it, I make a point of memorizing the cover or writing down the title and author. Something made me pull it off the shelf to look, so I'll do a quick online research session on it - and maybe return to buy it. For those I choose, I carefully scrutinize the references notes as I reaad. Sometimes I'll head to a reference and check. If an author takes a quote out of context, and blatantly so, I'm probably done with the author. NOwadays that involves a quick, "I'm disappionted," email or message to them, not a whiny socmedia post. For all the books I go through come copious notes that I review periodically, add to a Google Drive doc, and share with peers. You videos seem to fit smoothly with my own, problably nutsy-gefooly, way of choosing and consuming material. Thank you!
It isn't if you consistently struggle with procrastination and don't understand why. In that regard, reading the book on procrastination is already one step of the process to fight procrastination outlined in this video.
Video Games are one of the worst forms of procrastination because it makes you feel like you're accomplishing A LOT! Because your character is progressing or YOU are progressing in the game. AND this feels exactly like days when I've been VERY productive and got a lot done. There's literally NO DIFFERENCE. BUT what you realize later is that while you feel like you got a lot done, you actually accomplished NOTHING in real life. Absolutely NOTHING. AND the age old excuse of "well I could sell this account online" is bunk cuz 99% of gamers never do this. The same thing goes for other hobbies. However don't get it twisted, hobbies are great and essential for a balanced life. So as long as the gaming is kept in proportion to other things, great. But it's all too easy to retreat from life into games that give HUGE dopamine hits on a regular basis.
Great insight. Video games are an escape that burn up energy which could be cultivated for real goals. At least with other hobbies like working out or playing an instrument, you get some tangible fruit of your labor, unlike games or movies, which are more like addiction.
@@curcumin417 - Yeah I sort of agree with you. I mean I get what you're saying and it may not seem like you get fruit from playing games but you actually do. BUT it's not really tangible.....more intangible. With hobbies like woodworking, you do get some tangible thing that you've built. But with gaming you actually get knowledge of the game and you improve problem solving skills. If a person is playing a first person shooter, they're also getting better hand/eye coordination which definitely helped me with sports like tennis and baseball/softball. All of these things are VERY helpful in real life. If a person is working in technical jobs like IT, playing games actually helps with social interactions. VERY MUCH the same way that knowledge of golf is essential and very helpful if you're focusing on business. Also as someone who's an alcoholic that's been in very long term recovery, I only sort of agree that games are like addictions. They can be but other addictions destroy lives and I don't see that happening as often with games and certainly not to the depths of chemical addictions. It's common to say people are "addicted to a game" but I tend to disagree. It makes games seem WAY more destructive to a person's life than they are. Games can also be HUGELY helpful to help people avoid engaging in their addictions and regulating their emotions. Honestly games have helped me far more than they've hurt me. I'm forever grateful to game makers for helping me deal with life. It's hard for me to overstate their benefits to my life. seriously. Anyways just thought I'd add some clarifications. Cheers.
Wasted more than 12 years, "trying to learn programming, 3D, photoshop, gimp, sound FX". I feel always tired, not motivated, doesn't want to put in effort and now the anchor is so big that I don't know what to do and how to fix it. :) And still don't know what I want to do with my life.
I would recommend picking just one at a time. Programming can be learned in months, or weeks even, which isn't a significant delay in learning your other interests.
Well meaning TH-camr: go to a library first to read the book before buying it Your common procrastinator: 2 minutes into a video, let’s add this to watch later
I should probably be working on my own book now, but I'm watching a video about procrastination. I'm not procrastinating though, because I decided to take the day off. I'll procrastinate tomorrow.
I buy and read books like this and other self help books (and watch TH-cam videos of the same ilk) because I procrastinate doing it (watching or reading) but then rarely ever take action to do what is being suggested🥴
Has anyone else experienced life changes thanks to an eBook called Hidden Time Wealth? It's such a refreshing perspective on overcoming procrastination.
I can't stop raving about Hidden Time Wealth. It's like a secret eBook for those who want to stop procrastinating and achieve their goals effortlessly.
The sound doesn't match the video style. The sound is amazing and has an ASMR feel to it... But the video style is casual, down to earth, and no nonsense... Personally I prefer the casual, no-nonsense style of your videos over the soft, sensual style your audio is suited for. Just my $0.02
Ehhh, I get that, but it's also totally wrong. He's never shied away from tangents or holistic thinking; this is just another example of his channel addressing the big picture of people learning Python and implementing it in their lives. For a lot of people, procrastination is a much bigger impediment to coding than math or logic, for example. Hence, it's totally on-topic. Can it apply to other aspects of life, too? Yep 👍

I love the way you talk about books and self development, wish I could subscribe 200 times
When I see a new video about procrastination pop up, I check how long it is, then spend that time doing something useful... ;)
I've been doing useful physical labor, I decided to take a break for the length of this video.
This is low-key genius habit building.
Like writing this comment :)
@@MasterXoergOwnsen It's the least time-consuming anti-procrastination tip you'll ever see on the internet, I feel... ;)

Reading a book on procrastination is procrastination…”JUST DO IT”
Or don't do it. You may never need to do what you are procrastinating about. And maybe it wasn't worth doing in the first place?
It isn't if you consistently struggle with procrastination and don't understand why.
In that regard, reading the book on procrastination is already one step of the process to fight procrastination outlined in this video.
