Happy new year, fam! What’s one thing you hope to achieve in 2023?
-
I'm a primary care physician and I approve of ALL of these. Only note: when it comes to "motivation", be kind to yourself. Not every moment of the day should be productive. ;)
-
My absolutely fool proof boost — drink water!! Whenever I’m sleepy it’s the very first thing I’ll try. I read somewhere that our bodies aren’t actually great at recognising thirst and that by the time we are “thirsty” we are already dehydrated. We often mistake thirst for tiredness or even hunger. Drink first — then see if you’re still tired or hungry, because I have often found I’m not! Great video xx

Ive experienced a weird thing lately: feeling gratitude to the point of getting emotional every morning is changing my life. I have felt so happy and energetic. Its bot a energy thats physical it comes from a deep emotional place and overrides physical sensations because it fills me with joy and emotion
-
Lack of motivation for me is a sign that I’m exhausted and I need to be lazy for a few days. Then I feel better and I’m doing my things. I think keeping an eye on the things that steal your energy is what matters. My biggest energy stealer is worrying and thinking about my problems constantly. I need to give myself a break!
-
I literally laughed out loud when you said you sleep well because you don't have children. I really appreciate this video and all the effort you put into this channel. You have so much great information.
-
I disagree with the concept of "willpower." It implies that lacking motivation is a personal failing. I think what most people are really lacking is the mental and emotional energy to do yet-one-more task on top of everything else in a culture that stigmatizes actual rest. The advice given to address it here is solid though, if I'm listening to my favorite podcast or watching something funny while I take care of task chores it does help a lot because you're focusing on something fun instead of the chore.
-
A work space with lots of natural light has done so much to help my productivity! I moved into a new house recently and my office has two huge windows and it's such a mood boost when working! Thanks for the great tips :)
-
I've been applying these habits for the last year (although sometimes I slip up with some of them) or so and it's been a huge game-changer! Side note, I feel like we listen to the same podcasts and read the exact same books haha, love the tips you shared and how clearly articulated you are in their explanation.
-
Okay, can we talk about how well edited and filmed this is? It's fantastic!
-
20 minute meditation twice a day really works. It recharges neurons that are active during sleep in the morning and those over used in the day in the afternoon.
-
one thing that a psychologist who specializes in sleep CBT told me: don't go to sleep unless you're tired! even if that means getting less sleep/feeling like crap the following day. and if you can't fall asleep after 15 minutes or so get up again out of bed until you feel sleepy/can't keep your eyes open. It's important not to stay in bed because you can create a habit of wakefulness/a phobia of going to sleep from having sleep anxiety
-
I really like your ideas for when one cannot (for any reason) aim for a perfect option. You give another idea which "Is better than nothing". It sounds so positive and uplifting. :)
-
I’m 60 years old, wake up every work day around 4:30, have a cup of coffee, do some exercises and a couple miles on the treadmill, usually a walk mile then a run mile. I haven’t slept well most of my life. I’ve tried everything and found that a good diet and exercise work best for me. Keep the good recipes coming. Thanks for all the suggestions. 😊
-
I'm surprised taking a walk after eating was mentioned. For about half a year now I've been instinctively doing that (10 to 20 mins walks) and it has been a very possitive change, as it helpes me relax and even improve my mood.
-
Believed it or not. This is the first video that I came across on your channel. I watched so many of this kind of productive videos and this one is the best so far. I love it. No BS, great sensible advice, nothing exaggerated. I love your chill vibes. It makes me feel that I can follow those tips easily. And your cooking videos also look great! I'm not vegan but I love tofu. Definitely gonna check your others video. And please do more of this kind of content!

As someone who lives in Central Ontario, I know how important sun light is for energy and peace. I get up and go to work and it is dark. I come home... And it's almost dark. And by mid winter a lot of people are beginning to feel it
-
Hi from Minnesota where it's definitely winter! 🥶 But believe it or not, we still get outdoors year-round. It's necessary to keep the winter blues away. And the coldest days are often the sunniest, and we definitely don't want to miss out. So as the Scandinavians say, there's no such thing as poor weather, only poor clothing. 😂 Thanks for these fantastic tips. A few I've successfully incorporated (delaying caffeine and switching to green tea was a game changer), and a few new ones to try.
-
The writing down next day tasks tip is like gold to me. Such a great idea! I can definitely see how getting that out on paper frees your mind in the evening.
-
When you said we have been lied to about multi-tasking, I subscribed because I think the same! Multi-tasking is just not our thing as humans, being aware of this, gives you more control, and you don't have to pretend you are multi-tasking. Thanks for sharing this ma'am.
