You’ve changed my life bro. I joined Adonis school using government welfare. Got a job and have made enough money from my business this month to quit my job already. Couldn’t have done it without you Hamza. Highly recommend everyone to join if u wanna escape the rat race ❤🙏
02:21 😌 Flow state is essential for productivity and focus; it requires mental engagement alongside physical presence. 05:22 😕 Modern society's pursuit of external validation through material success often leads to unhappiness and unfulfillment. 08:55 😓 Wandering mind breeds unhappiness; the key to happiness lies in being present and focused in your tasks. 12:54 😃 Engaging in tasks that align with your interests and induce flow states brings lasting happiness. 16:10 🌟 Soft factors like mindfulness, sleep, diet, social connection, and flow states contribute more to happiness than material success. 18:43 💪 Pursuing activities that lead to flow states and internal fulfillment ultimately results in a better life, despite potentially lower external rewards. 21:03 🎯 Ambition aligned with tasks in Flow State leads to fulfilling success. 23:23 🌟 Goals achieved through tasks in Flow State are more fulfilling. 26:29 🚀 Achieving Flow State leads to exceptional productivity gains. 29:45 🛑 Minimize Flow Blockers: thoughts, distractions, tasks switching, poor diet, inadequate sleep, technology disruptions. 35:08 📱 Manage technology distractions: use airplane mode, eliminate notifications, minimize interruptions. 39:21 💪 Take action: Implement strategies to optimize focus and productivity. 40:00 🏃♂ Prepare for flow: Warm-up your mind for productive sprints with proper setup and planning. 40:42 🎯 Preparation matters: The difference between being unprepared and prepared affects your ability to enter a flow state. Being well-rested, having a good diet, and eliminating distractions contribute to successful preparation. 41:24 🎭 Rituals enhance flow: Athletes often have rituals to enter a flow state, like specific stretches or routines. Developing personal rituals can help transition smoothly into a focused work state. 42:07 📝 Specific task clarity: Rather than vague goals, define precise tasks for your work sessions. This clarity reduces resistance and procrastination and increases the likelihood of flow. 43:31 💻 Set up digital readiness: Before ending your work session, have the necessary documents or pages open digitally so you can dive right in when you start the next session. 44:13 🏋♂ Set up your environment: Prepare your physical space with required tools, water, or other necessities to minimize interruptions and maintain focus. 46:19 🚧 Focus maintenance: Staying in a flow state involves repeatedly redirecting your attention to the task at hand, despite momentary distractions or wandering thoughts. 47:56 🔥 Gradual challenge increase: Select tasks that are slightly challenging yet within your skill level. Incremental challenges foster a sense of accomplishment and facilitate flow. 48:11 🧘♂ Integrated focus: In a flow state, your mind becomes absorbed in the task, and you're likely to experience heightened performance. Maintain this focus by using techniques like "mean gaze" and persistent effort. 49:05 🎢 Recognize flow cycles: Flow cycles have a peak followed by a decline. Accept that flow states naturally come and go, and take breaks to rest and recharge. 50:01 🛌 Post-flow rest: After a flow session, rest your mind and engage in a different, non-taxing activity. Avoid immediately checking your phone to maintain a clean mental state. 51:54 ⏰ Consistent routines: Establish regular time blocks for flow work. Create a consistent daily routine for focused work sessions to build better productivity habits. 53:18 ☕ Caffeine boost: Consuming caffeine, like black coffee, before starting work can enhance alertness and increase the likelihood of entering a flow state. 54:28 🧠 Challenge balance: Maintain a task's challenge level in alignment with your skill level. Gradually increase challenges over time to avoid frustration and enhance engagement. 57:03 🎮 Gamification: Turn tasks into personal challenges or games, setting scores or goals that motivate and enhance focus. 57:43 👀 Visual concentration: Intense focus, including narrowing your vision and squinting your eyes, can help immerse you in tasks and aid flow state entry. 57:57 🧐 Focus on narrowing your vision to improve concentration during tasks like writing or studying. 58:26 🏞 Expanding your vision, like when looking at a broad landscape, can lead to deeper thoughts and desires. 58:53 🏋♂ Athletes perform better with focused training, avoiding distractions during workouts for improved results. 59:36 💪 Effective workouts challenge both physical and mental states; maintain a flow state during intense exercises. 01:00:19 📵 Avoid distractions by not bringing your phone to the gym; maintain focus for better performance. 01:04:00 🎶 Consider working out without music or lyrics to cultivate self-motivating thoughts and affirmations. 01:06:00 🏋♀ Warm-up by raising your body temperature before workouts to enter a flow state more easily. 01:14:20 💑 Being fully present in relationships, conversations, and intimate moments enhances the quality of connections. 01:15:14 💼 Flow states apply to work and relationships, impacting happiness and emotional well-being. 01:15:42 🌟 Flow state can lead to extreme happiness or depression, depending on the context. 01:16:09 🧠 Relationships get boring when the challenge decreases while skills remain high. 01:17:19 🎮 Increase challenge in relationships to prevent boredom, similar to leveling up in video games. 01:18:17 💬 Deep conversations increase challenge in relationships, fostering growth and connection. 01:19:56 🌟 Breathing deeply and focusing on sensations during sex can enhance intimacy and spiritual connection. 01:21:59 🤝 Cultivate attentive listening skills to deepen connections through meaningful conversations. 01:25:02 🌊 Deep breathing practices can lead to longer-lasting and more fulfilling sexual experiences. 01:29:37 🌀 The concept of "ego death" aligns with merging into a task during flow states and spiritual experiences. 01:31:52 💪 Consistently push your boundaries, maintain flow, and keep increasing challenges to experience continued growth. 01:34:45 🤯 Consistently prioritize entering flow state; it's crucial for self-discovery and spiritual growth. 01:35:28 🧠 Practice mindfulness and bring your mind back to the present moment for tasks, regardless of their nature. 01:35:56 ⚠ Beware of getting hooked on external results; prioritize intrinsic motivation and mental perception. 01:36:39 🌟 Authentic living, character, and values lead to a fulfilling life, not just worldly success. 01:37:07 📚 Further growth resources and education for becoming a higher-tier man of character are available at the mentioned link.

Can we just appreciate how much better Hamza has gotten at presenting and talking uninterruptedly? Just goes show that he practices what he preaches and that what he preaches is right. Thanks Hamza.
I love how all Hamza's videos/guides will always be there and nothing changes about them and they still work, so you can come back anytime if you need.
Today I entered the flow state for the first time in recent years. Yes, I had entered the flow before while playing basketball or tennis, or even doing a big homework with minimal time (i was super late). But today was different. I was writing a story in school for a play and I had to create the backstory of my character. Then, I started to write. I wrote perfectly, with no pauses to think about the following of the story. In one moment I needed a name for a school director (in my story). "Mr Truegarden" came almost instantly, and I finished my work successfully. At the very end of my story, has I became less and less concentrated, I heard the voices of the rest of the class getting louder and louder. "How did I do to work there, they are so loud ?" Immediately, I talked about the flow state I was just in with the girl I was working with and she said that I looked super focused. After the class, I couldn't stop smiling. I just had 1 thought during the flow, and it was "Do I show what I've written to her now ?" but I've just went on with the writing of the story. I was writing and I had the image of the what was happening in the story in my head. Wonderfull !
I've asked some of the students of Adonis School to come here to comment their experiences so look out for those comments if you are interested in joining!
Hey, you said in the video that you eat a low-carb diet. I just wanted to say that a low-carb diet is shown to lower testosterone drastically and increase cortisol. The rest of your diet is pretty good.
“The ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at exactly the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable in our economy.” -Cal Newport (from the book ‘Deep Work’)
Hamza has literally changed my life I went from a depressed guy who tried to kill himself multiple times and didnt acchieve anything in life to someone who has found happiness in religion, makes money and has enough knowledge about self improvement to help others. We all appreciate you so much Hamza. You literally change peoples lifes everyday. I cant thank you enough.
Being inside Adonis school has helped me drastically as you're a community of young men who have similar goals that you do and work on them together keeping each other accountable. The School has a wide variety of resources that has help me tremendously and id recommend anyone that wants to take their self improvement to the next level to join.
Hamza. You've literally changed my life. I once was a depressed kid who spent 8 hours daily on Instagram. Now my life is absolute happiness. I do the hard things I like whilst I enjoy them. I can talk to any person, meditation now is like one of the best things I do. I already made a freaking novel! I'm so grateful for your help. 👊

Yoooo brother, I'm interested in reading this novel of yours, as an avid reader and enjoyer of books. Can you tell us how to find your book when it's published?
Regarding knowledge work, entering a flow state can REALLY get you ahead. Accomplishing this huge amount in less time, offers you the flexibility to either reduce your working hours while having the same output, or you maintain that time whilst drastically increasing your productivity. Either way, truly powerful
Hamza, your videos always seem to align with a struggle I've been facing lately in my life that has hindered my self-improvement journey. Your videos are a blessing in my life, and I always find value to take out of them.
I won’t lie as someone who plays guitar as a hobby listening to music helps me get into a flow state far more in the gym. When listening to rock and whatnot you break down the song itself into layers. Wondering what chord is what and how the composition works altogether. It’s killing two birds with one stone. Flow while exercising, motivation and getting better at a hobby I love.
I'm extremely grateful for this video. I was lost. That's since past few weeks. I couldn't get any work done, I couldn't workout. But now, I clearly know what is that I have to do and I did. I can't thank you enough, Hamza
Had to come back to this video to comment. I’ve just had the best study session I’ve had in months. And the best part is that I feel like I can even do another after a quick rest. This is unbelievable! THANK YOU!
Hey Hamza, your long-format educational guides are always top-notch! 😊 If you could make a video about sleep and its impact on our daily lives, it would be incredibly informative. Please, everyone, give this comment a thumbs up to show our interest and encourage its creation! 👍
Currently practicing the principles in this video at the time of me writing this. I have never felt this present and mentally strong before. Flow and Discipline everyone 💪
Hamza I swear I tried this after the video and it works. I made some beats (my passion is music) while being in Flow State and it took me 30 MINUTES for finishing the beat (it usually take me 3/4 days to finishing them). I can't imagine doing this for 2 hours while studying lol. Thank you so much brother
I would say that 90% of our sharpness is around our capability to fight intrusive thoughts and do not fantasize about them. Just getting back to the task ahead. I feel well and happy when I do that. Fasting, carnivore diet, etc, are very important too. But the development of this painful skill of getting back the focus to the task you’re currently doing is life changing. Another masterpiece from Hamza, thank you. The work you do makes us genuinely better.
Hi Hamza, I love this style of videos, 1/2/3 hours of no bs knowledge without any shitty music or montage. Thank you, I am listening to these hour long videos over and over while working and my productivity went up by a 1000%. I rarely write comments on youtube videos but I just wanted to say Thank You bro, I really appreciate your work ❤
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ loves you so much that He died for your sins and rose from the dead. If you repent from evil ways, believe that Jesus has paid the fine for your sins on the cross and confess Him as your Lord, you will be saved. You see, we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, that's why Jesus Christ, fullness of Godhead bodily, lived a perfect life, fulfilled the prophecies and law, shed His Blood at the cross just so you could be forgiven, reconciled back to the Father, receive God's love, be made a new creation, whole, sanctified. It's not about religion and what good works you can do to earn salvation, it's only by grace through faith in the finished works of Jesus Christ. Read God's Word, preferably start with Gospel of John, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you, give you wisdom and revelation that way you're born again and see your life changed by the Spirit of the Most High. Much love and God bless you!
It’s good to stay busy but it’s good sometimes to slow down and sit on a bench on at the park and think, no scrolling, no podcasts, no music, you may feel sad but at least it’s authentic.
Ive noticed that ive recently gotten into a flow state while watching this video, and im realizing that what hamza said at the beginning of this video is so true, now that im in a flow state, my anxiety and stress that i previously had today is disappearing and isnt as bad anymore, I feel sigificantly better now that im in a flow state. I am so grateful for hamza bro.
Hey hamza , you know what I am literally grateful of you . I have no big brother or any person who taught me how much you have taught. Whenever I need advice on a particular topic your video just pops up and I learn a lot from you , I truly agree with your thoughts because I just experienced it. Since past 10 days I was studying for 8-10 hrs a day and barely got time to think about foolish things and yesterday I took a break and literally just after getting a shower I started to get negative thoughts and the whole day I was sad and just because of this, my today's productivity was also very low and just then I saw this video . I don't know if you would read this or not but I'm truly grateful to learn these things from you also this was my first ever comment on TH-cam and genuinely it came from bottom of heart.
I wish you nothing but the best for your future family. You helped everyone. Not just people watching and learning from you but also the people who interact with the people you teach how to improve!
Long videos like these are indeed more educational than the small ones, it really helps to understand something fullly when you talk about it in depth.
The intermittent fasting tbing clicked I just readied by the time I try to get work done I’m coming home from the gym crashing on lreworkout and had eaten a huge breakfast gonna start fasting
I figured out the whole "the wondering mind is an unhappy mind" thing a while back and the fact that you feel happy when you're focused, but hearing the same words coming from you Hamza means that's really true after all haha well done man, I can clearly see that you're an intelligent above average person from your way of thinking
Hey Hamza, it's only been a few months of watching you but you've been helping me out a lot. I have been working out a crap ton and I also have martial arts training. I do this normally Monday and Wednesday and I'm feeling extremely happy. You see, I did some research on exercising and I learned that when you exercise it releases happy hormones. You are preparing me to have a fantastic life and I just want to say thank you.
you'll we surprised how deep your flow state becomes once you practice mastery of breathing. running, biking, skating has always been this flow state exercise for me. really surprising that cutting off all the unwanted dopamine really makes life so much more satisfying.
Hamza, thank you so much. You inspired me to start my own business and it has given me so much fulfillment even though I am young. I promise I will retire my family in my future🙏
I couldn't be more grateful. Being inside Adonis School is amazing, the price is symbolic, the kind of content and knowledge that you get, with the coaching calls and the people that you meet is just astonishing

Straight gas man. Your content has been very inspiring to me.

Hamza, I'm not sure you'll read this lol probably not but since I see you're getting into spirituality I really recommend 2 spiritual "gurus" (I'm pretty sure they both rejected that word but whatever) called Osho and Krishnamurti. They're pretty popular in the spiritual community and their teachings have worked for me tremendously. They're pretty harsh so I understand if they're not for everyone but trust me when I say they're worth giving a chance. Osho is a bit more controversial I guess but I really really like his teachings. (he was also really well-read) If you're thinking of getting into spirituality just know that the path is ardous mentally lol but it's literally the journey of a lifetime and very much worth it. Best of luck!! (P.D. I happen to be one of the 3% of women who watch this channel and I have to say I'm so happy to see men finally encouraging emotional intelligence, family, spirituality, commitment, etc. We've been waiting for this for so damn long lol.)
Thank you Hamza. This video has a lot of value and you're solving my problems literally, when i start listening to you i say this is the problem i have to solve. But about the wealth we desire, I think a man must have a certain amount of wealth to be able to live a comfortable and healthy life with his family.🤝
Thanks for the flow state guide Hamza, really insightful. Thanks for sharing with us all that knowledge that you have learnd and it really gives like kind of peace to know that we can strive for a great reason to live our lifes and for a purpose. Thanks man.
Learnings : 1. Minimize distractions 2. Practice intimate fasting 3. Prepare a schedule 4. (still watching video) Thank you so much Hamza You Are changing me.
ADONIS AHMED Quote of the Day: "In order to achieve a flow state, one must lean just beyond their edge by setting the challenge slightly higher than their skill level, striking a balance between being present and challenged."
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ loves you so much that He died for your sins and rose from the dead.

You see, we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, that's why Jesus Christ, fullness of Godhead bodily, lived a perfect life, fulfilled the prophecies and law, shed His Blood at the cross just so you could be forgiven, reconciled back to the Father, receive God's love, be made a new creation, whole, sanctified.

This guy has actually changed my whole life genuinely, for all my life I swear to God I will always be grateful for this man, I started watching him almost a year ago and im not kidding, he has changed my life, love you Hamza.
While you start working I recommend having a distraction journal. Whenever you have thoughts instead of removing them which is difficult quickly write them down to think about later.
I needed this so badly right now in my life because I feel like I had lost my flow state over the summer for school and for mainly reading. Hamza, you’ve changed my life ❤
Joining Adonis School was the best thing I could do, finally felt part of a group, found people like me, people who deserve altruistic behavior, supportive men who want to improve the quality of life of all the community. You also have the opportunity to find people near you on the map It's amazing how this community helps each other. The content inside is extremely valuable, I've understood a lot of things, the courses are very high quality, well structured, valuable, complete. There are also calls with coaches who can answer your questions on different aspects of our life. There are also good ways to make money. This school has the best ROI possible, and by the time it gets better and better. Worth every single cent

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ loves you so much that He died for your sins and rose from the dead. If you repent from evil ways, believe that Jesus has paid the fine for your sins on the cross and confess Him as your Lord, you will be saved. You see, we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, that's why Jesus Christ, fullness of Godhead bodily, lived a perfect life, fulfilled the prophecies and law, shed His Blood at the cross just so you could be forgiven, reconciled back to the Father, receive God's love, be made a new creation, whole, sanctified. It's not about religion and what good works you can do to earn salvation, it's only by grace through faith in the finished works of Jesus Christ. Read God's Word, preferably start with Gospel of John, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you, give you wisdom and revelation that way you're born again and see your life changed by the Spirit of the Most High. Much love and God bless you!
I swear Hamza should read Frederik Nietzsche's books if he hasn't already. concepts like "the last man", "the Übermensch" and the chase for meaning over pleasure.
Guys, it's the first time I've ever watched about 1 hour of self improvement contents and actually do the step without distracting and I also take some note! You changed my life Hamza!!
You honestly deserver whatever you want hamza. You have helped me soo much like i cant thank you with a youtube comment. Its too much help ive gained from you. I had thought that everyone made self improvement videos for the sake of views and adsense but you are actually on the mission to help us become adonis. I wish there are more people like you. You motivated me and now im starting my youtube channel its been a month and i have gained 136 subscribers. Im really happy that this happened. If i never saw your videos i would have still been a mouth breather lazy jeffrey.
Thank you for starting to make meaningful content instead of chasing views Hamza, you're prioritizing your audiences personal growth over your channels's. I'm grateful for having this full guide of flow, I can agree the ket to happiness is being able to get in the flow often.

My girlfriend went on a crazy rage tearing up “The way of the superior man” book that I had for years. Saying it was misogynistic. She read through the book and found any little detail that can be slightly offensive and wrote on it. Idk what to do at this point.
I cut ties with a bunch of very toxic people in my life a few days ago And the aftermath is still hitting As I was watching, and Hamza told us to turn off notifications, I realized how much time and mental energy was drained from me every day because of the messages these people kept sending It's a complicated matter and I can't ignore it, I have to actually talk to them about it and deal with it, but instead of letting them distract me all day everyday for 3 straight days, I could have just left them for a time when I wasn't doing anything useful Thank you brother, I swear I'll never have any social media or messaging app notifications turned on ever again

I love the steps part of your video, it really helps guide the viewer through the different sub-topics and sections of the video. I feel it may be more fitting to call them parts, though, as not all are actual 'steps'. Additionally, in between 'parts' you could name the 'Actionable step 1' etc separately.

Thank you so much, Hamza. You're one of the great masculine figures that help me navigate through life. I'm so thankful I found you while I'm still young. I never really had a "father" or "brother" figure in my life so I didn't know a single thing about masculinity. You helped me become more masculine and find my purpose. I've already come quite far but I still have a long way to go.
I've watched an hour of full money guide and half an hour of full focus guide, and I can already tell that if I keep trying to get focus over and over I'll just get back into games even harder so I am taking a step back.
if im being extremely honest, i have not been getting any work done lately and you hamza, have given me purpose again, you always give me that push and carve the path to do the right thing and i am extremely grateful for you brother, thank you for getting me back on track
to recap to stay in flow state: acknowledge irrelevant thoughts and move on from them, don't get angry or upset because you are thinking about them. Anger clouds the mind. Squint at a specific spot on what you are working on to centre yourself back to the task. Once the current flow bout has concluded relax so that you brain is at optimum function to work again.
That was a really good guide mate! I feel like your old videos just scratched on the surface and started to be repetitive. The new ones are so good because of the deepness they deliver.
You’ve changed my life bro. I joined Adonis school using government welfare. Got a job and have made enough money from my business this month to quit my job already. Couldn’t have done it without you Hamza. Highly recommend everyone to join if u wanna escape the rat race ❤🙏
Mine too, thank you, Hamza!
wierd, but any time when I need help with something, you just made a video about it, even now

Can we just appreciate how much better Hamza has gotten at presenting and talking uninterruptedly? Just goes show that he practices what he preaches and that what he preaches is right. Thanks Hamza.
still a big improvement@@ainsmas361
I very much prefer the unedited videos. Goes a bit too fast now.
I love how all Hamza's videos/guides will always be there and nothing changes about them and they still work, so you can come back anytime if you need.
Today I entered the flow state for the first time in recent years. Yes, I had entered the flow before while playing basketball or tennis, or even doing a big homework with minimal time (i was super late). But today was different. I was writing a story in school for a play and I had to create the backstory of my character.
Then, I started to write. I wrote perfectly, with no pauses to think about the following of the story. In one moment I needed a name for a school director (in my story). "Mr Truegarden" came almost instantly, and I finished my work successfully. At the very end of my story, has I became less and less concentrated, I heard the voices of the rest of the class getting louder and louder. "How did I do to work there, they are so loud ?"
Immediately, I talked about the flow state I was just in with the girl I was working with and she said that I looked super focused. After the class, I couldn't stop smiling.
I just had 1 thought during the flow, and it was "Do I show what I've written to her now ?" but I've just went on with the writing of the story. I was writing and I had the image of the what was happening in the story in my head. Wonderfull !
I've asked some of the students of Adonis School to come here to comment their experiences so look out for those comments if you are interested in joining!
Hey, you said in the video that you eat a low-carb diet. I just wanted to say that a low-carb diet is shown to lower testosterone drastically and increase cortisol. The rest of your diet is pretty good.

“The ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at exactly the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable in our economy.” -Cal Newport (from the book ‘Deep Work’)
Deep Work is such an awesome book
Hamza has literally changed my life I went from a depressed guy who tried to kill himself multiple times and didnt acchieve anything in life to someone who has found happiness in religion, makes money and has enough knowledge about self improvement to help others. We all appreciate you so much Hamza. You literally change peoples lifes everyday. I cant thank you enough.

Being inside Adonis school has helped me drastically as you're a community of young men who have similar goals that you do and work on them together keeping each other accountable. The School has a wide variety of resources that has help me tremendously and id recommend anyone that wants to take their self improvement to the next level to join.
Hamza. You've literally changed my life. I once was a depressed kid who spent 8 hours daily on Instagram. Now my life is absolute happiness. I do the hard things I like whilst I enjoy them. I can talk to any person, meditation now is like one of the best things I do. I already made a freaking novel! I'm so grateful for your help. 👊

Yoooo brother, I'm interested in reading this novel of yours, as an avid reader and enjoyer of books. Can you tell us how to find your book when it's published?
What did you do on instagram for 8 hours?!
Regarding knowledge work, entering a flow state can REALLY get you ahead. Accomplishing this huge amount in less time, offers you the flexibility to either reduce your working hours while having the same output, or you maintain that time whilst drastically increasing your productivity. Either way, truly powerful
Hamza, your videos always seem to align with a struggle I've been facing lately in my life that has hindered my self-improvement journey. Your videos are a blessing in my life, and I always find value to take out of them.
Wow i have been on self impovememt for 2 years now and this made my work even better
I won’t lie as someone who plays guitar as a hobby listening to music helps me get into a flow state far more in the gym. When listening to rock and whatnot you break down the song itself into layers. Wondering what chord is what and how the composition works altogether. It’s killing two birds with one stone. Flow while exercising, motivation and getting better at a hobby I love.
I'm extremely grateful for this video.
I was lost. That's since past few weeks. I couldn't get any work done, I couldn't workout. But now, I clearly know what is that I have to do and I did.
I can't thank you enough, Hamza
Had to come back to this video to comment.
I’ve just had the best study session I’ve had in months. And the best part is that I feel like I can even do another after a quick rest. This is unbelievable! THANK YOU!
Hey Hamza, your long-format educational guides are always top-notch! 😊 If you could make a video about sleep and its impact on our daily lives, it would be incredibly informative. Please, everyone, give this comment a thumbs up to show our interest and encourage its creation! 👍
Why do you want him to make a video about it?
Currently practicing the principles in this video at the time of me writing this. I have never felt this present and mentally strong before. Flow and Discipline everyone 💪
Hamza I swear I tried this after the video and it works. I made some beats (my passion is music) while being in Flow State and it took me 30 MINUTES for finishing the beat (it usually take me 3/4 days to finishing them). I can't imagine doing this for 2 hours while studying lol. Thank you so much brother
you in AG bro?
I would say that 90% of our sharpness is around our capability to fight intrusive thoughts and do not fantasize about them. Just getting back to the task ahead. I feel well and happy when I do that. Fasting, carnivore diet, etc, are very important too. But the development of this painful skill of getting back the focus to the task you’re currently doing is life changing.
Another masterpiece from Hamza, thank you. The work you do makes us genuinely better.
Hamza is one of the few people that puts hedonism and showing off aside and tells us what's it like being a real man. Thank you Hamza.❤❤
Here you go hamza, a comment to boost your video on the algorithm
it's been a year on this road, i'm not adonis yet, but it feels good every day knowing im taking the steps getting there. Hamza, you're a life saver
Every time I watch one of Hamza’s full guides, I feel like I’m actually learning for one of the few times in my life. Thank you Hamza.
Hi Hamza, I love this style of videos, 1/2/3 hours of no bs knowledge without any shitty music or montage. Thank you, I am listening to these hour long videos over and over while working and my productivity went up by a 1000%. I rarely write comments on youtube videos but I just wanted to say Thank You bro, I really appreciate your work ❤
I’m grateful for everything you’ve done for us Hamza. You’ve genuinely changed my life and probably a lot of others’ as well

you changed your life not hamza, hamza just showed you the way, fuck hamza
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ loves you so much that He died for your sins and rose from the dead. If you repent from evil ways, believe that Jesus has paid the fine for your sins on the cross and confess Him as your Lord, you will be saved. You see, we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, that's why Jesus Christ, fullness of Godhead bodily, lived a perfect life, fulfilled the prophecies and law, shed His Blood at the cross just so you could be forgiven, reconciled back to the Father, receive God's love, be made a new creation, whole, sanctified. It's not about religion and what good works you can do to earn salvation, it's only by grace through faith in the finished works of Jesus Christ. Read God's Word, preferably start with Gospel of John, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you, give you wisdom and revelation that way you're born again and see your life changed by the Spirit of the Most High. Much love and God bless you!
It’s good to stay busy but it’s good sometimes to slow down and sit on a bench on at the park and think, no scrolling, no podcasts, no music, you may feel sad but at least it’s authentic.
Just doing my part in boosting this video on the algorithm
Ive noticed that ive recently gotten into a flow state while watching this video, and im realizing that what hamza said at the beginning of this video is so true, now that im in a flow state, my anxiety and stress that i previously had today is disappearing and isnt as bad anymore, I feel sigificantly better now that im in a flow state. I am so grateful for hamza bro.
❤❤
Hey hamza , you know what I am literally grateful of you . I have no big brother or any person who taught me how much you have taught. Whenever I need advice on a particular topic your video just pops up and I learn a lot from you , I truly agree with your thoughts because I just experienced it. Since past 10 days I was studying for 8-10 hrs a day and barely got time to think about foolish things and yesterday I took a break and literally just after getting a shower I started to get negative thoughts and the whole day I was sad and just because of this, my today's productivity was also very low and just then I saw this video . I don't know if you would read this or not but I'm truly grateful to learn these things from you also this was my first ever comment on TH-cam and genuinely it came from bottom of heart.
I wish you nothing but the best for your future family. You helped everyone. Not just people watching and learning from you but also the people who interact with the people you teach how to improve!
Long videos like these are indeed more educational than the small ones, it really helps to understand something fullly when you talk about it in depth.
The intermittent fasting tbing clicked I just readied by the time I try to get work done I’m coming home from the gym crashing on lreworkout and had eaten a huge breakfast gonna start fasting
I figured out the whole "the wondering mind is an unhappy mind" thing a while back and the fact that you feel happy when you're focused, but hearing the same words coming from you Hamza means that's really true after all haha well done man, I can clearly see that you're an intelligent above average person from your way of thinking
Top 6 things that bring happiness 17:48 ; mindfullness, good sleep, good diet, social connections, kindness and flow state
Hey Hamza, it's only been a few months of watching you but you've been helping me out a lot. I have been working out a crap ton and I also have martial arts training. I do this normally Monday and Wednesday and I'm feeling extremely happy. You see, I did some research on exercising and I learned that when you exercise it releases happy hormones. You are preparing me to have a fantastic life and I just want to say thank you.
Hamza is the only TH-camr that has helped me in my personal life
Absolutely life changing advice, thank you Hamza, i find the most joy and happiness listening to you :)) Been following you since 80k subscribers
you'll we surprised how deep your flow state becomes once you practice mastery of breathing. running, biking, skating has always been this flow state exercise for me. really surprising that cutting off all the unwanted dopamine really makes life so much more satisfying.
Hamza, thank you so much. You inspired me to start my own business and it has given me so much fulfillment even though I am young. I promise I will retire my family in my future🙏
In sha Allah u will i trust you u have the capacity
I couldn't be more grateful. Being inside Adonis School is amazing, the price is symbolic, the kind of content and knowledge that you get, with the coaching calls and the people that you meet is just astonishing
Great video for one more time thanks for all the help and information you give us. Keep up the good work
Grateful for you Hamza brother 💋

And not only that, continue my journey on being the best at ecom. So far so good if I say so myself. Thank you fr bro. And thank you for this video, I’m at work and this couldn’t have come at a better time 😁🤘🏾
I've just seen the first 3 minutes and he is talking like a complete author. This could just be right out of a book. You got a talent there. Respect!

Hamza, I'm not sure you'll read this lol probably not but since I see you're getting into spirituality I really recommend 2 spiritual "gurus" (I'm pretty sure they both rejected that word but whatever) called Osho and Krishnamurti. They're pretty popular in the spiritual community and their teachings have worked for me tremendously.
They're pretty harsh so I understand if they're not for everyone but trust me when I say they're worth giving a chance. Osho is a bit more controversial I guess but I really really like his teachings. (he was also really well-read)
If you're thinking of getting into spirituality just know that the path is ardous mentally lol but it's literally the journey of a lifetime and very much worth it.
Best of luck!!
(P.D. I happen to be one of the 3% of women who watch this channel and I have to say I'm so happy to see men finally encouraging emotional intelligence, family, spirituality, commitment, etc. We've been waiting for this for so damn long lol.)
i also want to get into spirituality can you tell me what are the steps?
Thank you Hamza. This video has a lot of value and you're solving my problems literally, when i start listening to you i say this is the problem i have to solve. But about the wealth we desire, I think a man must have a certain amount of wealth to be able to live a comfortable and healthy life with his family.🤝
This is honestly a really good and helpful guide bro, I'm grateful that you took time to make it
Thanks for the flow state guide Hamza, really insightful. Thanks for sharing with us all that knowledge that you have learnd and it really gives like kind of peace to know that we can strive for a great reason to live our lifes and for a purpose. Thanks man.
Learnings : 1. Minimize distractions

ADONIS AHMED Quote of the Day: "In order to achieve a flow state, one must lean just beyond their edge by setting the challenge slightly higher than their skill level, striking a balance between being present and challenged."
I automatically knew that was from the way of the superior man, and I am just so greatful I remembered the information from there.
@@legacymeme8746 The keyword "lean just beyond your edge" let me know Hamza loves that chapter from The Way of the Superior Man 😂❤️
This is very true, it is also mentioned in the book 'The laws of human nature'.
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ loves you so much that He died for your sins and rose from the dead. If you repent from evil ways, believe that Jesus has paid the fine for your sins on the cross and confess Him as your Lord, you will be saved. You see, we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, that's why Jesus Christ, fullness of Godhead bodily, lived a perfect life, fulfilled the prophecies and law, shed His Blood at the cross just so you could be forgiven, reconciled back to the Father, receive God's love, be made a new creation, whole, sanctified. It's not about religion and what good works you can do to earn salvation, it's only by grace through faith in the finished works of Jesus Christ. Read God's Word, preferably start with Gospel of John, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you, give you wisdom and revelation that way you're born again and see your life changed by the Spirit of the Most High. Much love and God bless you!
My math teacher said "if you want to jump over the fence, aim above it and not at it!"
Stop reading the comments, get back to it.
Aye aye captain
You’re right but that includes you.
You got me man
Yes sir👍🏻
You went to the comments too
This guy has actually changed my whole life genuinely, for all my life I swear to God I will always be grateful for this man, I started watching him almost a year ago and im not kidding, he has changed my life, love you Hamza.
While you start working I recommend having a distraction journal. Whenever you have thoughts instead of removing them which is difficult quickly write them down to think about later.
Flow is the most important part of discipline.
I needed this so badly right now in my life because I feel like I had lost my flow state over the summer for school and for mainly reading. Hamza, you’ve changed my life ❤
Joining Adonis School was the best thing I could do, finally felt part of a group, found people like me, people who deserve altruistic behavior, supportive men who want to improve the quality of life of all the community. You also have the opportunity to find people near you on the map It's amazing how this community helps each other.
The content inside is extremely valuable, I've understood a lot of things, the courses are very high quality, well structured, valuable, complete. There are also calls with coaches who can answer your questions on different aspects of our life.
There are also good ways to make money. This school has the best ROI possible, and by the time it gets better and better. Worth every single cent
Do they only teach about TH-cam business? I might join…
Very informative, thank you
@@gabrielnunez8504 I’m here to help! 😀
@@TheSageOfSixPacks No, there is a course about that, but there are others. An affiliate marketing made very worth by Hamza, a guide on how to use skool to make money, and a part of productivity course that helps you understand what is a business
@gemitex7048 do they teach about how to manage a TH-cam channel with over 200k subs or something. Bc that’s what I need help on. I want to join but let me first save up some cash. I work a minimum wage job.
This is probably the best educational TH-cam video I have ever watched, thank you hamza
This by far the most valuable video you can watch on this platform
Yet another video with a whole bunch of value. If you have not watched the full guide on discipline video be sure to do that next.
This video has tons of value, just imagine how much there is in Adonis School.
There are tons of courses including: masculinity, productivity, leadership, hoy to make 1k in 30 days, plus many more.
You can hop on a call with HAMZA himself, 5x a week as of now.
There are other calls including, sleep, purpose, and masculinity.
This is a place where you go in with no one and will never leave because you have actual friends.
Make sure to join now

I swear Hamza should read Frederik Nietzsche's books if he hasn't already.
concepts like "the last man", "the Übermensch" and the chase for meaning over pleasure.
dude's changing his mind everyday haha
Practice ur eye contact with hamza
Guys, it's the first time I've ever watched about 1 hour of self improvement contents and actually do the step without distracting and I also take some note! You changed my life Hamza!!
You honestly deserver whatever you want hamza. You have helped me soo much like i cant thank you with a youtube comment. Its too much help ive gained from you. I had thought that everyone made self improvement videos for the sake of views and adsense but you are actually on the mission to help us become adonis. I wish there are more people like you. You motivated me and now im starting my youtube channel its been a month and i have gained 136 subscribers. Im really happy that this happened. If i never saw your videos i would have still been a mouth breather lazy jeffrey.
Thank you for starting to make meaningful content instead of chasing views Hamza, you're prioritizing your audiences personal growth over your channels's. I'm grateful for having this full guide of flow, I can agree the ket to happiness is being able to get in the flow often.

hamza thank you so much for your content. it really helped me a lot
My girlfriend went on a crazy rage tearing up “The way of the superior man” book that I had for years. Saying it was misogynistic. She read through the book and found any little detail that can be slightly offensive and wrote on it. Idk what to do at this point.
Reading the book again might help, to be honest with you.

Keep up the long format video I like the.
I cut ties with a bunch of very toxic people in my life a few days ago

As I was watching, and Hamza told us to turn off notifications, I realized how much time and mental energy was drained from me every day because of the messages these people kept sending
It's a complicated matter and I can't ignore it, I have to actually talk to them about it and deal with it, but instead of letting them distract me all day everyday for 3 straight days, I could have just left them for a time when I wasn't doing anything useful

I love the steps part of your video, it really helps guide the viewer through the different sub-topics and sections of the video. I feel it may be more fitting to call them parts, though, as not all are actual 'steps'. Additionally, in between 'parts' you could name the 'Actionable step 1' etc separately.

Thank you so much, Hamza. You're one of the great masculine figures that help me navigate through life. I'm so thankful I found you while I'm still young. I never really had a "father" or "brother" figure in my life so I didn't know a single thing about masculinity. You helped me become more masculine and find my purpose. I've already come quite far but I still have a long way to go.
I’m feeling great and amazing thanks to you Hamza let’s go. This journey has been a fantastic one and I can’t wait to see what challenges are next up.
He changed the way I think. You brought a difference in my life! God bless you
Hamza the ideas in step 5.2 was exactly what I had been needing to live a fuller life with my friends and family. Thank you
BROO i struggle with SEVERE ADHD and this video opened up my mind crazily ...!!
I've watched an hour of full money guide and half an hour of full focus guide, and I can already tell that if I keep trying to get focus over and over I'll just get back into games even harder so I am taking a step back.
Thank you Hamza . You have helped me a lot to improve . I promise you , I will keep improving and become a good man.
if im being extremely honest, i have not been getting any work done lately and you hamza, have given me purpose again, you always give me that push and carve the path to do the right thing and i am extremely grateful for you brother, thank you for getting me back on track
I dont know how this man does it, but he has just got me hyped for my day to day life
Everything changes today .I shall achieve flow every single day and work for my entire life as a superior man . Thank you Hamza big brother .
to recap to stay in flow state: acknowledge irrelevant thoughts and move on from them, don't get angry or upset because you are thinking about them. Anger clouds the mind. Squint at a specific spot on what you are working on to centre yourself back to the task. Once the current flow bout has concluded relax so that you brain is at optimum function to work again.
That was a really good guide mate! I feel like your old videos just scratched on the surface and started to be repetitive. The new ones are so good because of the deepness they deliver.
Hamza you've matured a lot bro. Your mindset is also aligning a lot with Islam whether you realise it or not
I wish I had friends like Hamza, I’m listening and actually getting value. Most underrated channel in the world combined with fresh & fit
