    I cant thank you enough for this kind of videos, please keep on doing them. I commented in the past that i feel like you are the future me with very similar thoughts i have.
    I am questioning myself for years why I have problems doing the things I like (also planning a big App like you).
    I tried meditation, cold showering, yoga, healthy eating, sports, nature walks, digital detox, reading very much. I think all together plus your content is getting me where i want to be someday.
    When i dont do it, I am feeling guilty and a bit worthless.
    Keep up the awesome videos, i love them.
    Greetings from Germany

    I also disconnect from everything once in a year and go on trek in the mountains where there are no network, no phone calls, no internet just me and the nature. And seriously it give me strength and balance my mind and it gives me a mental peace.

    @JoSh-yu6jt 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I love this one!
    The need for information detox is real. In times of Social Media we're transformed into input-junkies without us even realizing it. How many people would be willing to put their smartphone down for a day, two days or even a week? Heck, how many people can spend some alone time with nothing but their thoughts and a book. We already are information addicts.
    *Interesting:* Those ppl who take a break find it hard for the first couple of hours. After that they start feeling better, because of all the noise they've shut out.
    *Premise:* Know how to be alone.
    Thx for this post Kalle.

    Fun Fact: Not everybody has a "Voice inside the Head", it's called Inner Monologue. People that don't have it usually tend to move their lips while reading and speak while are forming an idea. To test if you have it or not just read / write something if you can listen to your voice without reading / writing then you have inner monologue.

    I watched that documentary but for some reason missed this very cool “Thinking Week” segment. Perhaps I was distracted or my memory failing me at the moment.
    Glad you are sharing your take and I’m thinking of ‘Thinking Week’ of my own. By the way, when you go for that nature walk, don’t leave your phone. What if you run into something beautiful in nature? Don’t be so selfish 😜. Or running into a stranger that may require medical attention?🤓. Just keep it silent.

    This is really nice. I like to go to the mountains during hunting season to watch nature and that is when I found the secret to deer season. Nature naps are amazing. Nobody around to wake you, nor anything around to disturb your inner peace. Just you and nature. Plus if anyone does come by and wonder why you are out in the woods with a gun you can always say its hunting season. lol Never gotten a deer, but a lot of sleep and relaxation.

      Since that video, I'm building a Trading Bot. And I don't even know if Kalle truly traded. The alpha advantage is not trustworthy in terms of data, so I intercepted the data that comes from the stockbroker I have an account, and then I was able to make Unlimited calls from several stocks and test with past data and working with a strategy to make it work. For now, I'm using the Doji technique from the article that Kalle shared, and tweaking in order to find better approaches.

For example on TH-cam I will still watch most of the videos of channels I’m subscribed to. So I feel like I can’t stop but instead just delay my media consumption! I know it’s not all about media consumption but I think it’s a big part of such an experience.
