Yes!!!! He offers a course, for purchase, called Writing for Being and it was completely full of teaching like this where we examined our values, intentions, and goals. It was life changing and left me with practical tools to I make meaningful change. I felt like Ryder lead me through one big therapy session. 😂
AND…. Don’t wait until you retire to get a hobby! If you like an activity you will make time for it. You don’t need to hike the Appalachian trail the first time you go hiking! You don’t have to make an entire quilt. Sew a seam, take a photo, hike to the corner of the street, take a single step to start.
Yes! Work should not be our entire lives. I see this all the time. My retirees that continue to have purpose- friends, family, hobbies, etc. thrive while others decline so quickly it’s staggering.
Thanks! The amount of incredibly significant and motivating information you provided in about 6 minutes is incredible. This is a video to be reviewed many times.
This is pure gold life advice for everyone. I have forwarded this to my sons who are in their late teens and starting life on their own. Thank you Ryder.
There are so many people who need this advice. Even young adults can benefit. One doesn't have to wait until retirement to find a hobby or what they love to do. Action becomes the purpose in the end. ✨
Similar to The Four Agreements ~ Miguel Ruiz: Be true to your word, Don’t make assumptions, Always do your best, and last but not least, Don’t take anything personally. It’s a great read and a great guide on how to have healthy relationships, including the relationship with yourself.
6:25 I would add use the word "no". Tell others no. Guard your time so that you can say yes to somethings. You may have said it but it needs to be said simplely, clear, and strong.
This came across my feed at just the right moment. Setting up my next bujo; getting back to basics with a clearer sense of what to include and how to record it in my notes. Hobby notes get their own binders so my bujo doesn’t overflow. I could put them there, and do in a pinch (get the thing written down before the thought and my understanding flit away into the void)
I've been Bullet Journaling, based on your original TH-cam videos, for 8 years now, but just now took the time to read your book and add so much more "practice". It's making an enormous difference as I take the steps for a big career change, taking some big risks in midlife. Appreciate you so much!
There are so many bullet journal channels. Most are only looking on how to lay things out, with a little bit of advice mixed in. This, however, is SO much better than those. Thank you for such amazing words.
If you liked this, watch his other videos too. He is the creator of the Bujo system, and over the past decade, he has created a lot of good stuff! Best.
Thank you Ryder for this wise reminder ! I think that sometimes, we are not true to other or to ourselves because we are afraid of being judged for who we truly are. But it's silly.
It feels VERY real, and by the end of our lives, with so much perspective... it does seem silly. I try to keep that in mind whenever the "shoulds" start to come through...
Unfortunately, peoples' judgements can carry consequences, so navigating our personal journey, living intentionally, being true to ourselves and creating our own reality can feel tricky and like walking a fine line..
I've been bullet journaling for about four years and something I've learned is that I can't set up individual questions that have to be answered regularly, like "Write one thing you learned today to be better tomorrow." There's no way I would have an answer to that every single day, or even every week. Any time I've tried to include any feature like this in my bullet journal, I end up forcing myself to come up with answers just to keep that feature consistent in my journal and not leave blank spaces. The result is that my answers are not meaningful and the feature ends up serving no purpose. Even a gratitude list doesn't work for me because after a few days, I've already listed everything I love about my life and there's nothing left to list so it just ends up being the same list every day and the redundancy just makes it feel like a chore. I love the idea of bullet journaling and writing daily in general, but I can't seem to figure out exactly what I should be writing and what features to include in my journal. I want my bullet journal to be a keepsake to look back on, and it certainly is that, but I also want to use it to gain more clarity on what I want and how to get it. I'm still trying to figure out how to set it up to serve those purposes.
Same here. I am inconsistent and easily bored with routine journals, so I have a blank journal in which I write whatever comes to mind. It doesn’t have to be every day but as often as I can. Be it happy or sad or in gratitude…..it will go down in ink. Occasionally I have just used random quotes and comments people have made as prompts especially on my phone journal. Either way that system seems to work best for me right now. So there is no best way to journal except your way to which you default.
@@HeatherHale I tried them and they were a nightmare. I loved the rest of the book but the morning pages were nothing but a chore and a headache. I did them religiously for over a month and finally realized this is not worth whatever the benefit was supposed to be.
This is tangential to your point, but when I was doing gratitude journaling, I decided it was okay to list the same thing on several consecutive days so long as I could still actually feel grateful for it when I wrote it down. I think the goal is not to come up with a list of every individual thing that you're grateful for, but to take the time to experience the feeling of gratitude.
I go back and forth--sometimes the repetition is perfect for me, other times it makes me crazy. One thing that helps when I can't do the repetition is to have a list of other questions or prompts that require you to check in with yourself and just do one of those instead....
Read the book in its Spanish version, love the value of the method and the simplicity. Applying the BuJo in my life these last two months has positively changed me. I was looking for ways to revisit some of the book concepts and found this channel very helpful in assimilating my daily BuJo practice. Thank you so much Carroll and community!💓💓💓
What an amazing video! Thanks for sharing this. I was able to take a break during a rough morning to look at myself and get some better perspective on my day and myself.
@@Equinella coming from a Combat Vet, it helps me put my thoughts on paper and minimizes the ruminating thoughts in my head. I consider it a vital part in my Post Traumatic Growth. Look up “Colonel Bart Billings, Psychologist-Help our Veterans, Don’t Label & Drug Them”. It’s not limited to Military PTS. Hope this HELPS 😊
someone once told me that if I am feeling lonely, then it means that someone somewhere needs my help. Find a volunteer opportunity. go do something for someone, even if no one notices.
The original bujo method is the only one that works for me. However I have a question, how could we use bullet journal to set up a monthly budget? Would it be a collection?
Ryder Carroll is kind of like the therapist I didn't know I needed.
I agree!!!
Yes!!!! He offers a course, for purchase, called Writing for Being and it was completely full of teaching like this where we examined our values, intentions, and goals.

Therapist, father, brother, boyfriend, guru… Actually he’s the most honest guru out there…
My mother was a nursing home nurse. Her takeaway was that people need hobbies. People without hobbies had more severe mental decline after retirement.
Watching friends resist retirement because of the fear of "what do I do if I don't work" is very humbling and definitely underlines this point
AND…. Don’t wait until you retire to get a hobby! If you like an activity you will make time for it. You don’t need to hike the Appalachian trail the first time you go hiking! You don’t have to make an entire quilt. Sew a seam, take a photo, hike to the corner of the street, take a single step to start.
Some of us have too many hobbies…what do we do?
Yes! Work should not be our entire lives. I see this all the time. My retirees that continue to have purpose- friends, family, hobbies, etc. thrive while others decline so quickly it’s staggering.
@@Sujowi Why don’t you split the hobby activities by each day and repeat weekly or monthly? Checking w/ B.J. … that is what I do.
Thanks! The amount of incredibly significant and motivating information you provided in about 6 minutes is incredible. This is a video to be reviewed many times.
I appreciate you, thank you
Very high concentration of content there. I’m glad I was unsatisfied enough to mindlessly distract myself on TH-cam so that I could discover this.
haha oh the mixed feelings about this! I'm glad you stumbled upon this video :)
This is pure gold life advice for everyone. I have forwarded this to my sons who are in their late teens and starting life on their own. Thank you Ryder.
Wow that's amazing - I hope it helps
Is there a "love" button somewhere here? "Like" is not enough!
I agree.

I'm very grateful and impressed by the spirituality you can share in very simple way.
Every word Ryder speaks is impactful and requires introspection and reflection
actions shouln't be worth one thousand word. it should be worth one!
amazing!
Love your commentary. You speak to my heart.
6:25 I would add use the word "no". Tell others no. Guard your time so that you can say yes to somethings. You may have said it but it needs to be said simplely, clear, and strong.
This was the greatest, most succinct speech on self care. I will listen to it again several times to make sure I got it all. Thank you.
I appreciate you watching, thank you.
1 b true to your community, 2 be true to yourself, 3 be true to your word.

My God this video hits harder than any advice anyone has ever given me.

Your voice is relaxing! ❤
I always look forward to your videos but this one hit pretty hard. Needed this. Thank you.
To Be or not to Be is solved … learn to Be yourself❣️Thank you.
Powerful advice that can change the life I lead but only if I take the action to implement 😊
This thoughts are powerful thank you for sharing it to us with such a great structure and understandable for all of us ❤ love that !
There are so many bullet journal channels. Most are only looking on how to lay things out, with a little bit of advice mixed in. This, however, is SO much better than those.
Thank you for such amazing words.
Maybe because HE is the inventor of the method 😅😅

You are pure healing to my mind and soul. Thank you for sharing your wisdom 🙏
This video is transformational. I took a whole page of notes! Amazing.
Thanks man. Reminders I needed today.
Glad to hear it - thank you for watching :)
This was the most perfect video for me to hear today. Thank you so much, Ryder! ❤❤

Journaling is a great way of decompressing and dealing with PTSD.
How so.. 🙏🏻

Thanks for this. It all takes effort but it’s worth it.
Oh it's the hardest work of my life! And yes, worth it
Thank you, that was a good reminder to be more intentional 🙏
❤ this one is gold, really 💎
Thanks for this!

someone once told me that if I am feeling lonely, then it means that someone somewhere needs my help. Find a volunteer opportunity. go do something for someone, even if no one notices.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤This is what I needed!
#1 I don't know anyone like that anymore. #2 I'm myself and know myself. #3 I have integrity and try to treat others well. Good advice though.
Be yourself! Be alone!
Thank you! I needed this today
great message, once again :) thanks !
Excellent!
Yes for friend phone dates !
Great vídeo real advice thanks
Lovely!!
Great! Thanks
felt like a podcast, you can put this in one for a daily pickup.
we do choose the families we are born into before we are born! And the lessons we want to learn
@apippin… Please elaborate. 😊
Your best video yet!!!
thank you for watching 🙏🏼
Powerful stuff
gg
job done!
+
all we need is just some healthy habits /mindsets
Gracias gracias
Awesome, TY
Good one 🙂👍
Your best one yet. By far.
I just wish you could have spared me from the click bait in the newsletter ;)
We gotta pay the video editor!! 😅 but I appreciate you watching, thank you
I need to rematch, write this down, reflect and take action. Thank you!
Great content..❤
I wish I could "like" more than once :)
I surround myself with no one and that's been my life solution.
This one was good
Are you a therapist? Lol you sound so much like mine. Thank you so much for these bite sized reminds. Hugs
Ryan would be possible you add subtitles in english? And th em the TH-cam will use the traslate to portuguese and outhers language 😊
Very good one! Thanks a lot! Is there a minimal gap between the audio and the video? Something is just a little bit off here🤔
Hola, ojalá lo puedan subtitular al español
The original bujo method is the only one that works for me. However I have a question, how could we use bullet journal to set up a monthly budget? Would it be a collection?
That would be a great example of a collection :)
Why are all your videos out of sync with the audio? I thought it was just the first one I watched but it seems to be all of them.
Maybe I don’t want someone to find this journal after I die.
It's nice to see my home city Kyiv, Ukraine in that short video where people jog
Focus. . . I was focused on how the audio was off from the video by a couple milliseconds.
Great video though! Awesome insights.
yeah it was quite distracting to me 😅
Olicenje privilegije onog “ravnopravnog” drustva. Prava “BeogAdzanka” sa akcentom na drugim slogu, kako doticna akcentuje.
I don’t HAVE anyone who makes a positive impact on my life.
Bla bla bla after 64 years… but I understand your position in life you are in sir.
❤
I’m surrounded by my cats and hubby. I’m good with it. Get away from the TH-cam. Gotcha.
