Not for me though, I don't get scared, just lazy, fear and laziness are very different, I also (most of the time) finish things as early as possible My procrastination is actually hours of learning, I learn stuff more advance than my lessons tbh

How to beat procrastination and get your work done: 1. Identify Resistance - awareness 2. Take Action - break it down into small tasks 3. Set an End Time - put a space to work in 4. Set the Mood - outside resources 4. Journal - meditate before starting to work to calm and clear your mind
When I procrastinate I ask myself "How do I want to feel at the end of the day?" and anticipating the good feeling that I will have when I get some important task done helps me to take action :-) and treat myself
i’m watching this video while procrastinating on my history essay. i’ve also been avoiding it all weekend. you did it in 20 minutes. i can do it too, thank you.
Tips: • take action (baby step) • set time deadline (get flow state) • using music (or whatever to set the mood) • journal and/or meditate before you get to work
Roi Arthur urrghhjj I NEEDED THAT and you know whaaattt??? i’ll stop procrastinating by writing this comment and start working on writing my paper. THANK YOU!!!
I like the definition that procastination is basically the fear of doing something because it so important. I find the things that are most important to me take me so long to do and it always makes me feel so guilty that I put them off and it's because I'm so afraid that in the end I might fail. Knowing that procastination is a form of fear helps me come to terms with it alot more and it feels like...I'm not the only one who feels that way. I don't know about other people but when I know I'm not the only one feeling something it makes me feel like I'm in it with someone else even if I don't know them...and the thought of having that "togetherness" makes me feel so much stronger. Does that even make sense?
Giselle La Chatte It totally does! I feel the same way about it. Today I decided to take a baby step and to finally start planning my dissertation that I’ve dreaded to think about for the whole summer break lol. I think planning it out will help me to stress less and to not put it off till the last few days before deadline 😅 To some people creating this “atmosphere” to get you started seems stupid but I really cannot do it other way.

That's the word procrastinating i ask to myself many times can't even answer hahah and someone answers it and that's u Lavendaire, thank u for sharing this empowering video it really helps a lot. ❤️ God bless u more 😇
I just got about an hour's worth of work done on a project I haven't touched for about 2 weeks because I watched this video right before. Thanks for helping me to focus. I'm listening to the deep focus playlist you suggested. Also, after you spoke about doing "baby steps" it made me want to make a bullet-pointed list of every tiny baby step I needed to do to finish the project so I would have the satisfaction of checking off each one. I'm happy to say that I've completed about a fifth of the baby-steps task list, within this last 60 minutes! Thanks again for putting this video out there.

Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new. If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done. The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing. In life, people tend to wait for good things to come to them. And by waiting, they miss out.
Hello Aileen, my name is Stephanie. Last night, when I had had enough, enough of the rut I've been in, enough of my inability to properly organize my thoughts and enough of my lack of strength, to fight the urge to procrastinate, I cam across your channel.. I've watch about 4 or 5 different videos and they have all struck a chord with me. I want to thank you! I'm amazed at the effect your videos have had on me in this extremely short amount of time!! So, thank you for creating your channel and posting these videos, you are definitely making a difference in the world 🙂!
I have an updated productivity/organization video! → 10 Habits to Be More Organized & Productive | bit.ly/3ayYDBL What are your latest productivity habits that are working for you in 2020?
Hi!! Here is a tip, when i'm reading or studying i record my desk and the things that i'm doing in time lapse, so i can't grab my phone because i don't want to ruin that and when i finish i can see all my work getting done and it motivates me ✨✨✨
Life changing tool for me was setting timers for most of my tasks - whether it’s planning a major work project or prepping my coffee for the next morning.
I love the deep focus playlist! ⭐️ I find that procrastination can sometimes happen due to poor habits. Over time, I've established better routines so that I don't even think about avoiding a task. Every morning when I wake up, my first hour of the day is dedicated to doing my TH-cam work. Then, after my day job, I come home and do at least another hour. It's become a part of my routine and a daily habit that I do without resistance. Plus, I regularly check in on my 'why' and my purpose for doing what I do. This keeps me aligned with the reasons behind why I need to put in the work! This is a reminder to myself to stay on task and keeps me motivated, especially on days when I feel too tired or lazy to do anything ❤️
That part about procrastinating out of fear is so true. Just simply taking action is something I've learned to do over time and it's the reason I wear a bracelet with the quote "Just Do It".
I love how you describe procrastination! The fear of doing something because it is important, and then the fear of failure. One thing that helps me to stop becoming distracted and procrastinating is to keep a piece of paper or notebook beside me and if I need to, jot down things that are distracting me or that I need to do, or would like to do. Then I know that I can explore whatever it is I wanted to do later, and get back to the task at hand! :)
I love, love music but for some reason it hinders my productivity big time lol. For example, I can’t listen to any type of music when I’m trying to study, even if it’s just instrumental, and complete silence is just too boring, so what I’ve found really helpful is listening to coffee shop background noise. The 7hr vid called “Coffee shop murmur sounds” is my favourite because I can’t make out what anyone is saying so it doesn’t end up distracting me. Similarly, listening to a podcast/audiobook instead of music when I’m doing chores seem to make time go by a lot quicker and I’m also learning something new at the same time! :)
Aimee B oh interesting! For me, I can’t listen to music with lyrics or else I’ll start singing along or get distracted haha. The music has to be soft and instrumental.. not exciting beats or I’ll start dancing 😂
Whenever I watch these types of videos, I end up making them as my background "noise" (if that makes sense) and I end up just not listening and learning from them but this video, honestly, is the only one I focused on for the whole entire time and I learned a lot. Thank you so much for this. And with that, you just got yourself a new subscriber. By the way, you're so gogeous. 😍

I experienced that feeling again last night. Just too lazy and discouraged to do anything while so many things were waiting for me. But only one message from my best friend studying abroad in Korea like raised me up in the middle of night. That's really amazing. She just told me to go there and have fun with her. And that turns to be the strongest motivation I've ever felt in my whole life. Then this morning I stop procrastination and try hard on my stuff. I think the motivation from one special person is incredibly important.
I feel like for some people procrastination might come from feeling overwhelmed by a certain task and not being able to do it on your own. Then it is important to recognize that we might need a little help to get ahead, which is totally fine and everybody should be open to admit that. So then the first thing might be finding that person or group that can maybe redirect our thoughts or help structure something with us. Just a little addition :) Loved the video💌
I have just discovered your channel today and I think you have already changed my life. I didn't know how to get out of a "rut" and stop the procrastination. Thank you, your positivity is inspiring.
I procrastinate...I do everything at the last moment and I hate it. My mind gets overwhelmed with everything I have to get done so I spend my time putting out fires and doing "urgent" things...
after watched this, I've been working on a project that had been my biggest fear for weeks. 2h has past and I'm not scared of it anymore and I feel so relieved! can't thank you enough really.
Although I don’t agree that procrastination always comes from fear (I think for me and for others procrastination often comes from laziness and lack of discipline and bad habits), I think these are really good tips! I’m excited to use these tips, thanks 🙂
I found this video at the perfect time. Being a working college student who's trying to better the mind, body, and soul can be extremely difficult. Depression is one of the main reasons I procrastinate and facing resistance head on has helped a lot. Your advice was golden!
Thank you for this. You're right! I do self pep talks before squash tournament matches, but it never occurred to me to do them to avoid procrastinating.
I needed this boost of confidence. I want to be productive and I want to get things done. I just can’t get myself to do that sometimes. And this helped me in a way that I can still do other things than work, but still have time to work. Thank you so much! 💕
Aileen, this was such a helpful video and I love the concept of equating procrastination with resistance. I think that procrastination comes in several forms which is why its so hard to defeat it. Thank you for these hacks; I can tackle this semester
great tips! you kind of said it with the journaling stuff. but it can help to find and remind yourself of why you need to do what you are putting off and think of how good you will feel when you get it done, the sense of relief to get it done, or the pride of a good result. sometimes it can help to also think of the negative things that will happen if you don't do what you need to do, but just don't get stuck there, use both to your leverage.
I used to procrastinate and would even be late a lot (running late). I finally admitted I needed to improve on that issue so I use my phone to write to do lists and I used my iPhone and written calendar to write down important dates/times which has helped so much.
I'm an arabic fan for you...You taught me alot..It's hard to me to find arabic different sources for somene like you ..I'm happy to find your channel.Thank you♥
Haha I totally recognize the "motivating yourself in your journal"! I also started with morning pages just to clear my mind before work, and after a while it naturally became things like "OK, when I'm at work, I just have to do this and this, and then I can be proud of myself! And then when I'm home, I can work on my video! Yes, I can do it!" :D I enjoyed the video! You go in depth, but not too much. :) As for tips, I only have one video about productivity for now, but it's a bit in the same theme. I think most tips are different, so I think complements well with your video: it also has some tricks on reducing resilience. I hope it can help someone! :)
I usually hate these types of videos but yours was great! :) btw I have this big project on November 15th and I realized that doing one thing at a time really helps!
I’m literally already feeling the need to procrastinate. I’m here adding all your videos on all this lifestyle stuff to a playlist and contemplating on wether I should watch them now or later.
What a timing video... I am really affecting with procrastinating nowadays 😥😥.. you are always doing such a great job that's why I love you so much Aileen 💕... This video helps me a lot... Thanks my love 💞 I like the Forest App 😍😍 thank you 🌲🌱
During my internship last year I learned about the "baby steps" we called them "little wins". I think it's important to focus on the little wins towards your goal vs always feeling overwhelmed about the bigger picture or task you have to get done. 🌱Glad I saw this video because it reminded me of effective that was for me!
I love you so much. this is a wake-up call i'm in final year in college and this is super true. I've been doing this procrastination of a thing and this helps me so well..overthinking or stress is really bad and never lets you do what you need.. i dont journal but i meditate and mentality draw a map of what i need to get done
Thanks Lavendaire for this useful video :) I have subscribed to your channel. I'd like to mention i've been using the Procrastination Elimination Method by John Isaac as well... im having amazing success with it!
I have very similar tendencies to you. I keep a long to-do list in my phone, a list of appointments and other important things in my planner. But then some days I grab an index card and jot down the must-dos of the day. I thought I was doing to much, but it makes me feel better that I'm not the only one.
Journaling helps me a lot to focus on my work, I was so distracted and I didn't know what to do then I watched the video and tried Journaling and I love it. Thank you.
Thank you for this! Almost like your tip about putting up a timeframe, but not really. Instead of the "goal" of continuing after those 30ish minutes, I give myself "working hours", or more specifically an ending time. Like "After 4pm I dont work, and weekends not at all". To promise to actually do something is too much for my fragile procrastinative being. But I can promise NOT to work. And the result is that I actually DO work instead of postponing, and free my mind for other things on weeknights and weekends! Saved my life, and got me out of acadimia induced anxiety!
The problem I find myself in is that I don't need to learn to be "productive" but I rather should learn to chill more, if that makes any sense ?🤷♀️ I sometimes want to do so many things that I get overwhelmed by it. Even when I was productive the whole day and did a lot of work I still don't feel at ease before going to bed. Like if that still wasn't enough. Maybe that's because I'm a really insecure person and I try to work hard to get "better". I know my standards will only rise with that and that will get me nowhere... but I just can't help it😣
Littlemisssusuwatari this is another issue then. You need to be grateful and appreciative for the work you’ve done in the day and learn to relax & feel that it’s enough. Ambitious people will always have a never ending to do list. But focus on the PROGRESS you’ve made in your day instead of how much you have left to do. Celebrate your progress!
Everytime I watch your video, there is something to learn. TBH I hardly comment anywhere. But you make me feel like, "pause my video and comment first" lol. Simple, I love the way you share information. Millions of thanks.
Thank you Aileen!!! Great tips and books to read!!! I think that I will crack my procrastination now! I have been breaking it last 2 weeks and got a whole lots things done which is making me feel better. I have been breaking the work in smaller baby steps and it really works. Also I have been dropping huge expectations away. Example cleaning: "I'm cleaning the worst away, I can always clean again and do better job the next time." And I will, because every time it will be easier and faster cleaning. But the first time is hardest, because so much stuff needs to be moved around the house, de-cluttered and thrown out that I have taken that as "pat on the back if you move even ONE single item to the bin". And that makes me feel so good that I just want to find something else to throw to the bin....and snowball is rolling. I also think that it is harder to tackle something like starting to write a book etc. dream job so to gain momentum I just started an easier job (cleaning) and let that momentum carry me over to start writing as well. It is kind of learning a new habit as well: "setting working time" into your schedule and learning to follow up on it. And learning how I do work the best, how long before having a "tea break", because believe or not, you must have tea breaks in home too! I get so much more done and I'm less tired after the job. I also saw other youtube video about scheduling your day in blocks of time. And it makes a lots of sense to me as some of the work which I need to do daily is based on other timelines than mine. I will search the video and link it here. Hope that it helps somebody else (if anybody ever read this LOOOONG comment).
She starts explaining the block schedule at 3.00. Save yourself those minutes at least from babble... th-cam.com/video/2BKuSlstIBM/w-d-xo.html Also make a search block schedule on youtube and get more results...... And YOU need to create your own schedule as her day seems to be VERY full and also can be extremely different from your own NEEDS....
I can't thank you enough for this video 😊 It is 1.30 am here and I have just finished watching this .. I desperately needed to hear these words ..right words at right moment. I'm looking forward to apply these tips from tomorrow morning.. I'm a new subscriber here.. you are awesome ..💚
I've heard about Forest many times, but I bought it just today when I found out that they plant real trees. Thanks to you, I will be able to combine the useful for me with the useful for the world. :)
😭😭 I’ve been stuck in an endless loop of procrastination and I was getting in lots of trouble. So bad I got anxiety and everyday tasks became really scary and I would literally start shaking and crying. This video was one hundred percent what I needed. Thank you so much. One plus subscriber.

"You procrastinate because you're scared" is the most true thing I have every heard in my whole life
Me too! I got a short attack when she said those words 😂
Emma D agreed!
Mee tooooo
Emma D YES
Not for me though, I don't get scared, just lazy, fear and laziness are very different, I also (most of the time) finish things as early as possible
My procrastination is actually hours of learning, I learn stuff more advance than my lessons tbh

I procrastinate...I do everything at the last moment and I hate it. My mind gets overwhelmed with everything I have to get done so I spend my time putting out fires and doing "urgent" things...
Eduardo Aceves Same. Dw you are not alone 😅 change is possible though. Be praying for you 👍
Same here, we can and we will change!

after watched this, I've been working on a project that had been my biggest fear for weeks. 2h has past and I'm not scared of it anymore and I feel so relieved! can't thank you enough really.
i was procrastinating when she posted :0
me too
Same here
Same
Maria Neko me too
Haha got you. Good luck with your work!!
Love it! WOOOOW!!
Compared to most other „beat procrastination“ videos on TH-cam, this was the most helpful. There you go, yet again.
Although I don’t agree that procrastination always comes from fear (I think for me and for others procrastination often comes from laziness and lack of discipline and bad habits), I think these are really good tips! I’m excited to use these tips, thanks 🙂
Yes so true
Step by step the jug gets filled. Thanks for your great videos and tips dear Aileen!
thank you so much for your advice! I have an exam in four days and have been procrastinating for the last month! Can't wait to try your advices!
I found this video at the perfect time. Being a working college student who's trying to better the mind, body, and soul can be extremely difficult. Depression is one of the main reasons I procrastinate and facing resistance head on has helped a lot. Your advice was golden!
Thank you for this. You're right! I do self pep talks before squash tournament matches, but it never occurred to me to do them to avoid procrastinating.
I love when creators put time stamps for their videos.
I love this hair color on you. It really complements your skin tone and facial features.
I needed this boost of confidence. I want to be productive and I want to get things done. I just can’t get myself to do that sometimes. And this helped me in a way that I can still do other things than work, but still have time to work. Thank you so much! 💕
This is literally my biggest issue and I've read and watched countless articles/videos but somehow this is the one thats helped the most!
Aileen, this was such a helpful video and I love the concept of equating procrastination with resistance. I think that procrastination comes in several forms which is why its so hard to defeat it. Thank you for these hacks; I can tackle this semester

I'm so ambitious but battle with procrastination. Thank you so much for these tips. Now I'll be able to get things done.
I was actually procrastinating my study while watching this video, but you motivated me and made me go straight back to work. Thank you so much🙈🌼
Very helpful!! Thank you!!
great tips! you kind of said it with the journaling stuff. but it can help to find and remind yourself of why you need to do what you are putting off and think of how good you will feel when you get it done, the sense of relief to get it done, or the pride of a good result. sometimes it can help to also think of the negative things that will happen if you don't do what you need to do, but just don't get stuck there, use both to your leverage.

Way outta your league. JK JK 😂
Not true
I used to procrastinate and would even be late a lot (running late). I finally admitted I needed to improve on that issue so I use my phone to write to do lists and I used my iPhone and written calendar to write down important dates/times which has helped so much.
I'm an arabic fan for you...You taught me alot..It's hard to me to find arabic different sources for somene like you ..I'm happy to find your channel.Thank you♥
YOU DESERVE ALL THE LOVE AND SUBSCRIBERS
THANK YOU!
Haha I totally recognize the "motivating yourself in your journal"! I also started with morning pages just to clear my mind before work, and after a while it naturally became things like "OK, when I'm at work, I just have to do this and this, and then I can be proud of myself! And then when I'm home, I can work on my video! Yes, I can do it!" :D
I enjoyed the video! You go in depth, but not too much. :) As for tips, I only have one video about productivity for now, but it's a bit in the same theme. I think most tips are different, so I think complements well with your video: it also has some tricks on reducing resilience. I hope it can help someone! :)
It's not only the large tasks but the little tasks too. Once you have started you are in the flow, at times, and then you can finish it
I usually hate these types of videos but yours was great! :) btw I have this big project on November 15th and I realized that doing one thing at a time really helps!
I desperately needed this, I struggle with procrastinating, I’m trying to get better at being productive.
watching this when my exams are tmr lmao how productive
Lisa oppa good luck
Lisa oppa good luck!!
Lisa poppa I'm late but good luck
all the best. i have proclaimed myself as the goddess of good marks, and i bless you.
I’m literally already feeling the need to procrastinate. I’m here adding all your videos on all this lifestyle stuff to a playlist and contemplating on wether I should watch them now or later.
I love how your advice in this vid is really unique and different from the typical ones. Thank you!!
Thank you, I have found that procrastination ended up making me more stressed. Now I know I have to simply, Just Do It!!!
This was very useful and each tip flowed into the next. I'm so glad I stopped and watched. I even took notes!
this channel has a very calming aesthetic. Makes me wanna arrange my work space and get back to work
What a timing video... I am really affecting with procrastinating nowadays 😥😥.. you are always doing such a great job that's why I love you so much Aileen 💕... This video helps me a lot... Thanks my love 💞
I like the Forest App 😍😍 thank you 🌲🌱
"We all are work in progress".....loved that line💖
During my internship last year I learned about the "baby steps" we called them "little wins". I think it's important to focus on the little wins towards your goal vs always feeling overwhelmed about the bigger picture or task you have to get done.
🌱Glad I saw this video because it reminded me of effective that was for me!
Cleaning off my desk is part of my getting started ritual. Thanks for the great ideas.
thanks for the help!💗 gonna go do my math now ☺️
Katie Grace I see you everywhere
fine;))
I love you so much. this is a wake-up call i'm in final year in college and this is super true. I've been doing this procrastination of a thing and this helps me so well..overthinking or stress is really bad and never lets you do what you need.. i dont journal but i meditate and mentality draw a map of what i need to get done
Thanks Lavendaire for this useful video :) I have subscribed to your channel. I'd like to mention i've been using the Procrastination Elimination Method by John Isaac as well... im having amazing success with it!
Wow! The way that the thing you resist is by being scared of a big project. That statement was the most true thing I ever heard. Thanks for sharing!!!
1. Take action
2. Set timeline/deadline
3. Work when in your flow state
4. Journal/meditate
I have very similar tendencies to you. I keep a long to-do list in my phone, a list of appointments and other important things in my planner. But then some days I grab an index card and jot down the must-dos of the day. I thought I was doing to much, but it makes me feel better that I'm not the only one.
"Deep focus" and "piano in the background" are my fav playlists too for working 😄😄
Journaling helps me a lot to focus on my work, I was so distracted and I didn't know what to do then I watched the video and tried Journaling and I love it. Thank you.
i'll watch this video tomorrow
Thank you for this! Almost like your tip about putting up a timeframe, but not really. Instead of the "goal" of continuing after those 30ish minutes, I give myself "working hours", or more specifically an ending time. Like "After 4pm I dont work, and weekends not at all". To promise to actually do something is too much for my fragile procrastinative being. But I can promise NOT to work. And the result is that I actually DO work instead of postponing, and free my mind for other things on weeknights and weekends! Saved my life, and got me out of acadimia induced anxiety!
so helpful. thank you!
i love her “love you all so much”
like whenever the video is ending im waiting to hear it- ♡
*I love your voice and your confidence♡♡*
OMG! I love Deep Focus too! It is also great to use for writing, because I feel like it sets some kind of mood.
The problem I find myself in is that I don't need to learn to be "productive" but I rather should learn to chill more, if that makes any sense ?🤷♀️ I sometimes want to do so many things that I get overwhelmed by it. Even when I was productive the whole day and did a lot of work I still don't feel at ease before going to bed. Like if that still wasn't enough. Maybe that's because I'm a really insecure person and I try to work hard to get "better". I know my standards will only rise with that and that will get me nowhere... but I just can't help it😣
Littlemisssusuwatari this is another issue then. You need to be grateful and appreciative for the work you’ve done in the day and learn to relax & feel that it’s enough. Ambitious people will always have a never ending to do list. But focus on the PROGRESS you’ve made in your day instead of how much you have left to do. Celebrate your progress!
Lavendaire Thank you for your answer! 😊 you are right! I will try to incorporate more gratitude in my life like this.
Everytime I watch your video, there is something to learn. TBH I hardly comment anywhere. But you make me feel like, "pause my video and comment first" lol. Simple, I love the way you share information. Millions of thanks.
Now that I think of it, take action is the hardest part! I always procrastinate to exercise. The easiest next step is to get out of bed. 💪
Thank you Aileen!!! Great tips and books to read!!! I think that I will crack my procrastination now! I have been breaking it last 2 weeks and got a whole lots things done which is making me feel better. I have been breaking the work in smaller baby steps and it really works. Also I have been dropping huge expectations away. Example cleaning: "I'm cleaning the worst away, I can always clean again and do better job the next time." And I will, because every time it will be easier and faster cleaning. But the first time is hardest, because so much stuff needs to be moved around the house, de-cluttered and thrown out that I have taken that as "pat on the back if you move even ONE single item to the bin". And that makes me feel so good that I just want to find something else to throw to the bin....and snowball is rolling. I also think that it is harder to tackle something like starting to write a book etc. dream job so to gain momentum I just started an easier job (cleaning) and let that momentum carry me over to start writing as well. It is kind of learning a new habit as well: "setting working time" into your schedule and learning to follow up on it. And learning how I do work the best, how long before having a "tea break", because believe or not, you must have tea breaks in home too! I get so much more done and I'm less tired after the job. I also saw other youtube video about scheduling your day in blocks of time. And it makes a lots of sense to me as some of the work which I need to do daily is based on other timelines than mine. I will search the video and link it here. Hope that it helps somebody else (if anybody ever read this LOOOONG comment).
She starts explaining the block schedule at 3.00. Save yourself those minutes at least from babble... th-cam.com/video/2BKuSlstIBM/w-d-xo.html Also make a search block schedule on youtube and get more results...... And YOU need to create your own schedule as her day seems to be VERY full and also can be extremely different from your own NEEDS....
I can't thank you enough for this video 😊
It is 1.30 am here and I have just finished watching this .. I desperately needed to hear these words ..right words at right moment. I'm looking forward to apply these tips from tomorrow morning.. I'm a new subscriber here.. you are awesome ..💚
i never looked at it that way but resistance is so accurate and makes sense because i always procrastinate on important things !
Instead of doing my homework I’m galloping around the house with a block of chocolate watching this video
Emily Kate why and how do I understand this😆
can i have some chocolate 😀
omg YES GIRL-
the "baby steps" strategy about finding the easiest task is literally the best thing i could hear.
honestly...i procrastinate with watching these kind of videos and think "oh hey, i do something" ;)
I've heard about Forest many times, but I bought it just today when I found out that they plant real trees. Thanks to you, I will be able to combine the useful for me with the useful for the world. :)
How to stop procrastinating:
Stop reading comments and close the video
Not before you watch it
Patrick Not-Star & get back to work
Oof
I’ve gotta watch it first.
Thank u for this 😂🙏
😭😭 I’ve been stuck in an endless loop of procrastination and I was getting in lots of trouble. So bad I got anxiety and everyday tasks became really scary and I would literally start shaking and crying. This video was one hundred percent what I needed. Thank you so much. One plus subscriber.
