I Increased My Productivity 10x - By Turning My Life Into a Game
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 พ.ย. 2020
- When I was younger I used to play a lot of video games.
But as I grew older, they started taking too much time from my other activities.
For this reason, I started to gradually reduce the time I spent playing them, until I eventually quit.
But recently, I decided to incorporate some more down time into my schedule. And I gave video games another shot.
This is when I remembered just how fun video games can be.
It wasn't long before I was looking forward to the end of the day, just so I could hop on the computer and play. But this also got me wondering.
What exactly made those games so compelling?
And could I somehow apply those game elements to other areas of my own life to make them more desirable?
This is what I've learned.

Life is the ultimate RPG, so realistic that we forgot that this was all for fun
I will save this somewhere.
reality is an illusion.
edit: for clarification.
I'm not saying it doesn't exists, it's just a curtain between us and truth.
@@divinealien7620 if it is an illusion what is the point of life? Especially if you are tortured and really feel pain? What is the point of pain if it is continuous and you don’t have any other feelings? Surely life isn’t all about pain. And don’t give me this crap don’t compare yourself to others. Everybody different and everything is in comparison because if we won’t we never move ( like walking for example) or do anything.
@@svetlanabarrow6026 man is empty, and he/she have given the chance to fill the emptiness with his/her choice. in fact you are the one who decides what is the meaning of your life. hate, love, kill, save, black, white, blue, pink, light, darkness muslim, Christan, Buddhist, atheist, agnostic, Shia, ISIS, money, power, science, family, Jesus, Allah. choose wisely, you have one life. you can think about what you don't have, or, you can fight for what you love and do what you love. after all what's the point if you never fight for things you loved...
@@divinealien7620 maybe it is you who are empty. I am not.
1. Set your ultimate goal. Break it into smaller targets and focus on these from then onwards
2. Write down your achievements and think of these as level ups
3. Find a reward that rewards you back
4. Make slight variations within your routine to keep it interesting
5. Start at level 1 and gradually increase the difficulty
Thanks cute as fuck. oh sorry duck
Nice post thanks for your time dost
3. Find a reward that rewards you back - Cocaine 😍
@Repent you are even here . Wtf
@Repent word of God is the vibration that makes the creation possible. It means the creation always changes in everlasting cycle of life and death but the vibration is going to be forever allowing everything to exist. The lack of vibration is the nothingness, the real and only stillness that gives infinite possibilities to create through word of God, speak things into reality or bless and curse. I guess its too deep and hard to comprehend for religious fanatics.
5 elements of a videogame-like life
1) Have a clear objective you are working towards and break it down into manageable achievements
2) Make your progress visible, you need to be constantly aware that you're consistently getting closer to completing something: Track your achievements / daily activities.
3) Reward yourself for your effort with something that rewards you back into continuing progress. Find a reward that rewards you back, or at least make sure it doesn't sabotage your progress like it usually does
4) Incorporate something new into your playthrough.
5) Challenge yourself by gradually increasing the difficulty. If something is too easy try to set a time limit or increase the challenge in some other way
Your quest is to incorporate all 5 elements into your playthrough.
thx 😁
How the fuck am I supposed to motivate myself to set all this shit up in the first place then
The same way someone that's addicted to drugs or someone that's overweight starts a diet, one small step at a time but you have to really want to change. What works too motivate you you'll have to find that out with trial and error
thank you!!
For point 2 it's a good idea to always have a little notebook and a pen with you. As an alternative there are plenty free-to-use apps for the item most people carry with them anyway.
With either option or another alternative: BOOM! You just acquired your questlog and status window
Sometimes I'll pretend my errands are quests. It takes me out of the situation and makes me more of an observer and it's less scary so I can get it done
I do the same. I call it "going on an adventure". It helps.
for me, when i'm serving people in a fast food, i pretend i'm in a zombie game where i have to shoot zombies with specific bullets, and to collect their loot :D
Side quests

"Find a reward that rewards you back, or at least make sure it doesn't sabotage your progress like it usually does"
That might single handedly be the best advice ever. Thank you
same
o ptn CHHHEEEHH
I knoooow, right?? I'm going through all my goals and challenging myself to think of good rewards. My next one is set to be "get a motivational mug" for submitting my coffee-fuelled assignment :)
@Heena Dua yeah, as a student it's harder to find a good reward. You don't want "running shoes" so you can run better. (You don't want to study more, you want to finish it already 😅).
If you guys find a suitable reward, let me know:))

Him: "repeating the same level eight hours a day everyday for years is boring"
Speedrunners: ಠ_ಠ
That relates back to the time constraint method that he described! Speedrunners keep it engaging by trying to complete the level faster and faster.
@@iambw_rblx7145 On top of that they are always looking for new tricks to make the run faster
Oh right l0l
@@iambw_rblx7145 So it won't even be that boring,because like at boring activities,Better Than Yesterday is trying to do them faster so it would be fun. And they probably will try to do them in different methods,which means, diversity! God,I'm amazed that I wrote this from my knowledge 😂😂
@@mariastreetdance2711 Lmaoo I feel that last sentance !
It’s so funny how I started making progress in life when I started looking at boring tasks as main storyline quests that I have to do, and the fun/procrastionation things as side quests. I can do them after I have made some progress on the main storyline to advance enough to have credits and resources to explore the side stories and quests. 🙌🏻✨👏🏻
Love it!
This is brilliant!
I'm gonna start doing that lol my storyline begins now.
Thanks for the advice
@@JSmithRecords how’s it going, 3 hours later, I going to star mine
I’ve understood a lot of these concepts for a while without motivation to implementing them; but the thing that made a profound shift in my mind was when you said that we don’t measure our progress as 0.7% of Level 100, but 70% of the way to Level 2 ❤
And that our rewards should benefit our goals not hurt our progress ❤
That part of the video generated conflict in me because I played an MMORPG in which if you put the mouse over the experience bar it told you "0.07%" hahaha
WARNING: This advice works best for RPG, strategy, simulation, tycoon, thinking and 3X games! Turning your life into a shooter or horror game is not adviced!

Turning your life in to game is not advisable, full stop.

Me, a junior game developer, taking notes on how to make an interesting game
How'd u become a game developer?
🤣🤦♂️🤣😆😁✌
@@digitalmaijiin6236 Just start making games. I'm not saying you're guaranteeing a career, but I got my CS degree and a normal software development job but I always loved games. I wasted time thinking that the only way to make games was to get a professional position working on games, but I think I wasted all my time in college (I had a lot of free time) by not making games for fun. I finally opened up Unity and started making games. We'll see where this goes, but if you want to be a game developer, you already have what you need. The internet has all the resources. You are a game developer if *you* decide that you are one, all you have to do is make the choice and then start making a game.
You became the very thing this video swore to defeat 😂
@@GlobusTheGreat thank you so much. And yes what you are saying is indeed true, we have no reason not to go after our passion
I remember a moment very vividly where this same perspective changed a great deal for me.
I was driving and the thought popped in my head. "Treat life like a game and play to win."

Really good video. I bought myself a desk calendar so I can write down my achievements I did on the day and so I can see my progression.
Appreciated
As someone said, obstacles are not meant to stress you out, they are only the features of the game that makes it all the more interesting and engaging. Same goes for life. This is my most favourite analogy.
your comment is my new desktop picture
Hence the reason I don't play Dark Souls, I'd not own any in tact items any more
@You You You are a different breed of human than I am, I have bad adhd, dark souls is literally torture for me. I can play Satisfactory or Farming Simulator for days on end though XD
Decided to spice up the ending, hope you liked it🙂 Sorry it took so much time for this video to come out. I was busy with other projects, plus to top it off, I got sick for almost 2 weeks. Hopefully my next video won't take this long. Take care guys.
I was wondering why you hadn't uploaded. Hope you are better now.
when you remember you have a yt channel!!
Hope that wasn't the virus got u down!🙄
Loved this one 👍keep it up!
The ending was so VIDEO GAME!!! I accept the quest😁😁
Omg I needed this video right now!
I need to create a presentation for school and I'm just gaming too much to do my homework in time and right as I decided to change something you uploaded this video. I'm so glad I'm subbed
But only is this content worth spreading, but also the presentation was clear, fun, just ideal! Great work you're doing there!
This is EXTREMELY helpful!! Thank you!!
The outro was just magically incredible 😀
Glad you liked it!
Absolutely agree
Or turn it into a show/cartoon/anime/etc.
I’ve seen a good quote once relating to that, “if you feel sad or bored, imagine you’re the main character of a book/movie. People would love you and your life, no matter how imperfect you are.”
Think of your fav fictional character, then think of how imperfect and flawed they are but how you still love them very much.
that one of my fav character: the cat *SPEAKS* !!
If you turn it into something pre scripted don’t be surprised when it’s the tragedy genre
suggestions for choosing fave character?
there are at least thousands of characters whom i strongly connect with while watching anything from Terminator2 (John Conner), to Jack Reacher, to Brightburn (Brandon Byers), to StarWars (Obi Wan Kenobi)...
This sounds like the making of a narcissist
@@Numantino312 did you seriously say you identified with Brandon Breyer? You need Jesus
This is an incredibly insightful video! I love the bit about "setting the difficulty" to what you can manage such as breaking down a big task into smaller parts, but the opposite is also very important! Imposing challenges on yourself to make mundane tasks more engaging is so smart and I love how you mention setting a timer for yourself or similar. As a recent personal example, I had some really tedious tasks to do for work and its very easy to get distracted while doing them, but I set a deadline for myself because I wanted to break for lunch at the end of the hour and had already been putzing around on the tasks for a while. I set a 30 minute timer and honestly didn't think I would get them all done but I finished with 15 minutes to spare. It's amazing what you can do when you challenge yourself and just focus.
Really was not expecting this video to be so valueble 😂 I learned so much!!
I don't regret playing video games as a kid, it was the most fun I've ever had growing up! But sometimes I do regret playing video games now as an adult, I always feel so unproductive when I do.
and it seems boring too, it seems ive spent all dopamine available for games when i was young and now they s*ck
Since I have kids I found new fun in them again. I only play for a hour though while they watch me play games like rdr2. To them, that’s a movie every night practically lol
I quit videogames 1 year ago. Doesn't mean I won't play again. I just need to level up in real life first.
To me, playing video games it is the most fun the first hour, and then the fun decreases so I try to limit it. But that's easier said than done though.
I think you can always find something you can learn from *anything* . You just need to search
“Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.” I wish this was true!
Actually it's totally false!
What is "wasted". The answer of the question depends on your definition of "wasted". And everyone can have a different definition for that.
@@jan-lukas you're right mate I'm wrong
Actually I'm right from my POV as I'm a Student
It's impossible to define what the quote can mean to someone. We all will have our subjective view on it and give different answers.
It's 100% true it's all about your mentality
Tip : if you wanna glow up try thinking about it as customizing your character. You need to work hard and level up multiple times to get new features. Then you can play it.
That concept makes soooo much sense. I've been practicing it for years snd happy to see someone coming up with the same idea. Cheers!
I was literally explaining how I wanted my life to be like a video game to a friend earlier, my fbi spy read my whole conversation and found this just, for, me. I am loved!! [+10 love points]
(Btw I'm only being sarcastic about the fbi spy thing lol)
1: knowing where you're going in your life
2: tracking thing you gotta do in ur day
3: don't hurt urself after a good period
4: easy challenges before, harder challenges after
5: set a timer for the boring activities
6: socializing
7: music in background
8: sense of control
How's it going boss
Socialising is xp waste
@@zf-xi6ds but if you find friends you exchanged some xp for allies
Others:"life is not a game!"
This guy:
😂
This guy: Oh, but it is ;)
Life is more like a deathgame I would say...
but Its not just accomplishments that keep us hooked in games... its also the gameplay? washing your dishes and cleaning your room just isnt the same as traveling to gondor and slaying orcs with my magical pony and super shiny armor regardless of the reward I get afterwards
This is one of the very best video's on self improvement I've ever seen! Genius! I will not only implement the points into my own life, but I am already sharing/recommending this to my children and friends. Thanks so much for your work!
I ways thought about my life as a videogame, but usually tried to get this habit away as it seems to be strange and not enough "adultly". Knowing that others think like me and that this can be helpful somehow opened my mind. Gonna adapt this in my life again, in a hope to get back my productivity and get away from depression a bit
So usually I've heard all the things to "gamify" your life, but the one thing I've never considered or heard before was that the reward you get makes you better so you can fight better enemies to get better rewards and so on. It seems so obvious now that you've said it. It's literally compound interest on levelling up. This is without a doubt one of your best videos. Very well done :D
Glad you got something out of it! Delayed gratification is important, but gratification that improves your life? Even better.
yes I also agree with you, just realized that the usual rewarding for achieving something is wrong and it should be done like the video have said
@@BetterThanYesterday It's crazy how some of this advice that seems so common sense is so insightful and not something we often think about. Very valuable!
yeah! now i’ve been thinking of the frequency of rewards that are just overall to benefit you (think energy, lives, food, etc), rather than a benefit that applies just to that skill, and how often i can do that in my life to where i don’t get huge cravings for junk food for instance, because i neverrrr have junk food, sprinkled between no dessert and healthy/natural sugar desserts like fruit & dark chocolate or something. very thought provoking details in this video!!
This is honestly one of the best channels on TH-cam.
Clear, concise information with the sole purpose of improving the lives of others, without any disguised marketing. Top tier
Agree 100%.
definitely. glad i read the comments before making my own. came to say this 🙌🏼
Great video!! Its got me pumped to work on my goals! I love the one about rewarding yourself with something that makes you better at the game 💪
Thought of a concept like this before. Just didn't know how to apply it. This was really informative. Thank you.
apply it by verbalizing you goals and then understanding the steps you need to take to get there. try to improve on things you were never good at or don t give much attention to throughout your day, leveling up, like being better at presentations or talking to girls. make sure to get use out of your environment by talking to your peers and waging whether they can help you grow or not. start by taking small steps to your goals and be honest with what is getting in your way, Internet, video game or drug addictions.
Mee too
The difference between playing and grinding, between chores and games.
I am looking for an answer on how to convince my brain and my emotions about that.
I like to make easy tasks challenging by putting a time limit. This is especially helpful for cleaning up the room. Picking things up and organizing can feel so mundane as to feel pointless but if you give yourself a timer for 10 minutes and see how much you can get done in that limit, it feels so good to see how much better things look after such a short time.
Imma do that right now
that is so great! I will try it today since my closet needs rearrangement and organizing.
edited, Thank you very much for the idea!
I used to play this game with my brother when we were kids: set the timer to 2 or 3 mins and we had to clean up the mess we made before the timer runs out, so that the mom doesn't beat the crap out of us when she comes from work 😄😄 worked like a charm!
Honestly, this method works so well for me. Works especially well if you commit to cleaning just 15 minutes a day.
so smart
For someone who plays a variety of different games; another component is consistently failing, using your brain to approach a mission differently, while feeling comfortable with failure since you know you’ll get better.
Life habit: Feel comfortable with failing everyday because you took action, you know you’ll get better faster, than thinking about it too much. 🥇
I really needed to read that life habit. Thank you! (T^^T)
Sup cuz
Thank you for this comment, really.
Failing is good to an extent. If you go over a certain amount of failing I find it difficult to have fun anymore.
Greetings fellow dark souls player
I started doing this in my own way, about 13 years ago. I started to look at myself as a Sim with an aspiration and I started to live my life in a different way and became a more productive and happier person. Having priorities is important.
I LOVE this!! I've just finished this video and I'll re-watch it once again to note down these elements and tips as it is just not another TH-cam video that I just watch and forget about.
Edit: Please watch the full video! The video is already a summary, and this comment is too short to capture actual wisdom.
1. Clear objective, with sub-goals. Visible progress.
2. Track progress
3. Reward yourself after achieving something
4. Maintain novelty, or at least the attitude of curiosity
5. Challenge yourself constantly, and match the difficulty to your skill level
👍
Thanks
This summary leaves out some really important points. I’d suggest still watching the video.
@@lkjafiowoijaoijdsijf Absolutely. My comment was a quick note for myself, never intended to substitute watching the video.
3. needs addition>>reward which helps you achieve more.
I love the last ending line "And I hope you get better...than yesterday"
He didn't say this
thank you so much!!!! love this!! sharing this with my friends and family 🤍
Whats funny is that ive always consciously done this on the low. im 35, i was a child when pokemon first came out, and like most boys i was hooked on the games and the cards. So growing up i looked at everything i did in life as either adding to my xp or taking away my hitpoints. the more xp i get, the better my life will be and the more achievements i will attain, the more hitpoints that get taken away, the worst things will be, so everyday, I got out there and find new ways to increase my xp (studying, watching videos, investing, speaking with wise and experienced people, building relationships, etc)... Pokemon changed my life..
Wow!
Love it!
1) Clear direction .
2) Visible progress in sub goals
3) Reward that rewards back or reinforces the habit , e.g a shoes for runner
4) Slight change, variety, Novelty
5) Tasks should match skill level, not too easy nor too hard
I’ve been researching this idea but this is a superb video. Thank you!!🌹🌹
The hardest part of life is the lack of objectives, that's where self evaluation and management resolves in these kind of problems
"Match the difficulty to your skill level."
My life: don't think so lol
Take a year drop or something...
and increase your level.
you'll suck for a year. but once you're well leveled up. You'll enjoy things.
My life: "You died."
^Fr the comment above me is where its at
My life is more like plunging from one game to another on pure hell difficulty without ever mastering the basics.
I realised a while ago, that when I treat difficult tasks/projects and millions of errands like a game, tey somehow seem easier and more attainable... It's just in my head, but really, I stopped to procrastinate and fear for failure because "it's just for fun, it's just a game" instead of thinking "OMG, how am I gonna do this? It's too much! Too hard! etc.". It's a small trick for my brain but works like a charm:)
Nice video, I like the presentation and delivery. Time to start playing the game of life correctly.
I love this video! I am very passionate about gamification and this video incorporates one of my favorite hobbies (video games) with being productive. I am always trying to be better so thanks for sharing this. Will definitely use these!
I can play videogames for hours - if I can "play" life like that, I can hardly imagine how much I can accomplish! I think the most important thing is knowing the next step towards a goal. If that next step is ambiguous, it's far too easy to procrastinate or get distracted. I'm going to try and mimic the mission-system so I know what needs to be done next in my own life 💯 😌
@@spoopyradicalsnake I agree
Id be a multi millionaire with a ceo office, super yacht , multiple garages filled with super cars and mutiple business that generate me income just by existing ....could be my life ...but its just my gta character
In games there is no cost for failure. You use quick load, or start a new match. IRL is like playing on super hardcore difficulty and every failure has a cost. You either lose time, money, job, reputation, health or sanity. If every death in a videogame cost $100 you wouldn't find them very fun.
@@spoopyradicalsnake Some people have died playing video games for days on end with no breaks.
@@Gaze73 it depends on the game, some penalize their players for wrong decisions (FromSoftware games such as Dark Souls series and Elden Ring are prime examples, Darkest Dungeon is another example) and, interestingly enough, it actually feels even better when you (player) overcome your "quest" or objective. That's because it creates a bigger challenge when the stakes are higher, thus rewarding more dopamine.
This happens in real life too, when you finally accomplish whatever you set off to do and you struggled with a task. The problem lays in our ability to identify our level versus the task's level. We either think we're a level 100 when we're actually level 30 or vice-versa. We also need to learn to drop tasks that are too difficult and come back later once we've learned more.
I realize now that i've been able to do and excel at pretty much every job i've had because i look at things more objectively and see it more like a Dark Souls game where i need to make the best of a bad situation and accept failure, rather than for my personal interests and life.

I just rememberd that i got permanent band over some stupid shite in chat 300hr to hell i dont miss that game tho

I love this concept as I already do this in my life lol. I've always considered each skill to have it's own level and me to have an experience level. I can literally "feel" when a skill levels up and I do something to reward myself.. but I've never considered that the reward should push you forward. I've never heard it put into words before 😎 great video

Gamification, as this theory is known by, is being floated in academic circles as a method of motivating and arranging skills for kids/students. Full circle.
@@erin6784 Yeah, the science is pretty clear that successful gamification has LIFECHANGING impact on the morale of basically anyone who isn't a work grinch who insists "WORK ISN'T SUPPOSED TO BE FUN". Actually implementing it isn't the easiest thing to do, but the results are worth the effort.
Do it
Whats their counterpoint?
It's human nature not to waste time on unproven ideas. Try out your ideas and give them a good go. Change what you need to, until it works well. Evidence will prove the ideas - but only when one other person is impressed and they tell their peers. It's just human nature.
Very good analogy related to topic. This is one of the best videos I have ever seen on TH-cam.
This video is really cool, specially the reward section. I never actually thought about, how much sense it makes, to reward yourself with things, that help you become even better in the area you get the reward for. Thanks man! :)
1. Purpose
2. Progress
3. Reward
4. Variety
5. Challenging

After watching this video, I have learned some lessons for myself. If I want to change my productivity, I should turn my life into a GAME.
1. There needs to be a clear path and destination.
2. We can use the process bar to push our motivation because it shows us where we are on this journey.
3. After finishing a challenge, we should reward ourselves with a well-deserved gift.
4. Ramps the difficulty up and makes it fun.
5. We can do it together with others.
P/s: thank you for reading my comment (I know I’m new to English and still have a lot of mistakes. But I’m really happy because I’m getting better every day.)

You applied the 5 elements so good in the video as well...end at the end of the video, the magic woman with the epic music made me feel that life can be epic as well, an awesome story. Im trying to get out of depression, and that episode makes me hope. I was moved by that video, i cried a couple of shiny tears. Im happy, thanks
I've been diagnosed with major depression for almost a decade, and lemme tell you it gets SOOOOO much better. I was/am a really medicine and therapy resistant individual, but I have so many tools now to help me balance out my emotions. I still forget alot of the time, but I'm really starting to love myself again. You can do this. You can you can you can. I believe in you!! I didn't even believe in me making it this far, we're doing great! I'm so proud of you for making it this far and if you want any advice just hit me up on this commentsection, thank you for choosing a better life for yourself you TRULY deserve it. 💖💖
I felt the same way after watching this video. The creator presented the material in an easy to understand and very inspirational!
If anyone is interested : There are some apps that basically allow you to turn your life into a RPG. One example of this is Life RPG.
It's really work 😃 thanks for your precious cm 🌺
I personaly think "Habitica" looks more clean and are easy to use :)
Check it out :)
is it for pc or phone?
I have samsung/android
Habitica is also one such app and is great to use
My attempt to sum up:
• Clear Goals (achievable milestones)
• Visible Progress (track what's done)
• Rewards (with relevant gifts)
• Variety (something new occasionally)
• Gradual Difficulty (brake difficult tasks, focus on the easiest parts first, set some limits when feels too easy)
• Competition (social aspect)
• Music (and other motivation gainers)
• Autonomy (sense of control)
This is definitely one of the most important things i learned in my life. I still clearly clearly remember the moment in my 20’s when I started to think like this and it completely turned my life around.
They should consider making a class out of learning these kind of things at middle school
Most teachers and school planners arent that enlightened , but yes you are right , imagine a class on positive thinking and affirmation when you are little in school , it would change the world
Just so many people doesn't know what life is about, and how to stay positive. Even the most teachers in school don't know, they just play the same level 8 hours a day for many years.
This planet would become so much better if every child would be teached with videos like this
Not only in middle school, but throughout your entire life!
@@scsi1995 Life isn't just about being positive though. If life were only about the positive things in in, then it would be a waste, evil things would make no sense, and ultimately life would be purposeless. I personally think that Life is about living to your fullest and helping others to do the same, even through the hard times in it. That is why I love this channel so much, because he is doing the very thing that life is about. Not only that, but his advice is solid and agreeable for all cultures, religions, opinions, etc.
Idk I figured it out myself. After I played Sims. At like 18
I decreased my productivity by turning games into my life.
hehe
That ending with the task presented, and the new level experience music was perfect!
Thank you so much for your video! There's a lot of great advice here, especially the "make your reward count towards improving your life" part. I think I get discouraged a lot because I don't give myself the right rewards or forget to reward myself at all.
“Your hardest times often lead to your greatest moments of your life. Keep going. Tough situations build strong people in the end.”🙏🏽
Rightly said
You are the best motivational TH-camr ever! Really appreciate your efforts in making us better than yesterday.
That’s so true. This channel has helped me so so much
Thanks guys. I'm glad you find value in the content I create 🙂
Thanks a lot! Your channel's teaching style is perfect!
This is a great perspective! I think, in a way, I have used some of these tactics. It’s great to see them all explained so that I can increase the effectiveness moving forward
A good piece of advice I once heard: “I stay away from videogames/TV until I have all my tasks done for the day. It makes me feel more productive and it’s more rewarding because I’ll know that I’m not procrastinating.”
One of the best videos I might have ever seen . He picked the most important points everyone else misses . Amazing brother !
You made me better than yesterday, you are awesome!
Life is a long video game that ends when you can no longer play.. what I love most is the journey, characters and random situations and events that comes with it.. I’m happy that we all stopped here for second in our paths in this game called life.. farewell, everyone ❤️
"gently tap that like button" love your non violent style lol
Great summary of the most important points driving our desire to complete tasks. Great video, concise and to the point!
Thank you so much for the video, i never thought to view life in different perspective could make me more engaged to what i've been doing and what i want to be doing in the future
By turning my life into a video game it became a never-ending horror game. (Eastern Europe btw)
Cheers for the video 😊
Awesome content! Will try to start implementing them right away (especially loved the “write down your progress”). Thanks for sharing!
Great video man. Really great job
This video was so good, I just needed this. Thank you very much
I've been trying to do this exactly thing for myself for months. This is such a helpful guide to setting yourself up for success! Thanks man
I've had this idea for years and you brought it to life... THANK YOU!
Fantastic job on this video. Thank you for making this and spreading the positive words of encouragement along with practical ways to better our lives
I saw a tiktok months ago about a guy who made a excel spreadsheet with his daily task, missions, yearly goals, life goals etc and he also had a character that levelled up
Me: Watched finish the video
Also me: forgets everything and go back to gaming.
Likewise I knew at the end of the video I absolutely forget all of it😂😂 so I wrote a note to not forget
🤣🤣🤣
I know that feeling haha, just gotta schedule in a time to take action and commit!
Well come back and watch it again.
I'll do so tomorrow cuz I'm sleepy now and I dozed off for seconds every other minute so I absorbed almost nothing 🤪
2:15 "May be you need to kill a dragon or rescue a princess..."
My life: Killed the princess and rescued a dragon" 🤐

Have you already gone to sending a third of your planets population into exile on the computer planet operated by mouses just for the rest of the population to die from the world getting to dirty because you sent all the janitors to the world to be destroyed just to make a galactic freeway or have you not read the guide yet?
Dragon was a princess XD
Secretly the better deal.
What a thoughtful individual. This content has enlightened and uplifted me. Keep up the good work Sir.
Thanks for making this, this is helpful!
Great content Broski! I've loved the idea of levelling up instead of aging for a long time now and it was the beginning of an awesome road to always aiming to be better and working for the best you. Keep the content coming please I love it! 😁✌
I totally LOVED this video! Thank you so very much for this
You're awesome too man! this would be one of the best videos about LIFE & Video Games together... Love this idea.
You put into words what i set out to try to do & also expanded on all points, helping me to see where i need to improve. Very cool, but i found myself tuning out half way through regardless of being interested lol. I'm willing to bet i'm not the only one, but great video thank you!

Thx ☺️
This is very helpful. 😊
Funny thing is that the "boring grind" is standard RPG activity that helps the players progress.
Just like life one has to power through the "boring parts" in order to "level up".
Being consistent and efficient helps.
Thank you so much for this! I love the practice of writing down what we achieve each day. For years I practiced taking score of what I didn't achieve and it never helped. Sending everyone lots of love!
This gives me the ultimate idea of making a game for my personal life in which I can create different roadmaps, To-dos and set some reward for completing it! Great!
Loved it, very inspirational. Thank you
So nice to see a TH-camr concerned with the wellbeing of their Like button.
Tapped it as gently as I could for you. :)
Amazing video! You could totally turn this into a book and reach a whole new market! Good luck on your journey hero.
The feeling of checking a box once done is amazing!
