You are so brave! This change in direction was exactly what I've been feeling and it kept me from showing up enough... it felt like authenticity was so unappreciated that it discouraged me and pulled me back in to my shell... Now, I feel validated. It's okay for me to not want to 'entice' people, to not try to appease them or deceptively lure them onto my email list, or into my whatever creation... and ... I feel so relieved that I am not alone in my real interest: how to grow, heal, develop - as a human... and desiring fellow travellers on this path. I am glad I am already a subscriber bc I don't watch RUclips for its own sake, so I would miss out if I did not consciously choose what comes into my inbox... My inbox is sacred like my body, and I diligently keep it sooting, inspiring, and energising.

I agree with you, Shane! I have thought the same about the future of content creation. In my opinion there will be a big demand for real, authentic content made by real, authentic people. And the demand will be from those people who want to be mindful consumers. So, they will be actually the highest quality leads/customers in overall. And about my own consuming habits I've noticed that I'm not following any social media platforms nowadays. Only being subscribed to certain amount of email lists (like yours) and then coming to see content here in RUclips, if it seems to be really interesting for me. And in RUclips I might check the latest videos from the channels that I'm following, but I don't want to see the general RUclips feed at all. And it's really so relieving to be off from the addictive social media environment! Thank you for deciding to focus on creating high quality content without the attempt to make it algorithm optimized :D

Shane has always been a guy i've wanted to meet IRL, have a conversation with, and it's *precisely* because he's a genuine seeker, he really *does* want to improve things (himself, others), and he's explicitly concerned about his communication. So much to say here, but...YT comment section is NOT the place to have a conversation of any value at all...Mostly this: The new problem is NOT search -- we are /drowning/ in content (and most of it garbage) but rather "meta" search (as Shane points out) -- How do i find what i want/need/should engage with? How to avoid the doomscroll, consumer-mindset, short time horizon, "gives me the tingles" stuff? This meta-search problem will only grow over time -- How to find the good 10% from the 90% of dreck? Shane then self-corrects and says more like 99%..... How to THINK when the signal-to-noise ratio drops so low? Anyway....RUclips comment section lol...waste of time ...but i do wish Shane and his Merry Mean all the good luck with their goals -- I know he's the real deal.

Well, the algorithm must have my number. I'm aligned with your thoughts. It's such a relief to me that authenticity is "trending" and sometimes amusing to see some folks "pivoting " to be more authentic. You've given me a lot to think about. I probably ought to curate my intake more carefully. I lean a little too heavily on entertainment. I keep it very real on my channel and am incapable of being overly polished. people are saying that I am posting things that they aren't seeing anywhere else and that is the greatest compliment I can imagine. I admit I started because I wanted to find alternative ways to monetize my art practice, to have the excuse to be generous for "free" (which is my default mode, to give it all away), and still be slightly paid for it. we'll see how it all turns out. Anyway, I enjoyed this video. Thank you for your thought-provoking predictions.

The Potatovore diet

True... it has to get worse before it gets better again

The intro was too long but I am glad I sticked around for the “wage gap” content. Thank you for putting your thoughts forward.

Recent video which is just me talking about something I'm interested in, as I would to a friend: ruclips.net/video/0L2sKZxAC6s/видео.html - it's doing pretty well which I find very encouraging. It's not "going viral", but I think this may be what it looks like when the right people find your stuff.

Thanks a lot for the new perspectives. The speed at which technology is advancing is already overwhelming for many people. The answer to the question "What is really important to you?" will be crucial in not getting lost in the algorithm.

Cool!!

Miraculously the algorithm sent me to your video! 😅 About not trusting the algorithms so much. 😊 But I have been on the journey to curate my feeds for some time now. So the almighty AI knows, and might even have predicted that I write this comment. You present a very thoughtful approach to curating the input that ends forming your thoughts. Thanks for this. Do you know other content creators or sources that would educate teenagers about the importance of his?

Engagement is "interacting by getting attention." AI is getting better and better at it, and it doesn't matter who or what creates the content as long as it gets your attention. However, what will differentiate or stand out from the crowd will be "original content created by humans," and the problem will be demonstrating that it's made by humans.

Great stuff!

The reason people try to get as many eyeballs with low quality content is because they’re playing the ad revenue game

And once again, this man is leaving the mothership and going his own way. Thank you Shane for showing your very personal perspective. Like it! 🚀👨‍🚀✨

I really like the "curation" approach. I feel like building a library of content that is small but everything in it is fire ... that'd be something worth achieving as a content creator! Plus I have seen that work a lot of times already. Many channels I follow have very sparse upload schedules but when something drops it's full of "honey, (insert name of channel) has uploaded again" comments.

Thanks Shane for very insightful video as always! I too would be interested in a guided meditation to practice "letting go of trying".

Great video Shane, and I really like your new direction. I subscribed to your newsletter but I think I was already subscribed. 😄

Excellent, Shane!

Good vibes. God!!! I needed to hear this reflection. I've been down for several days thinking about this point we're at. AI and the whole revolution it represents and how this can dehumanize us. It's quite a challenge to create this type of audience but I agree that if you can leave a positive mark on humanity, it's the only way to achieve it.

Liked this video a lot Shane. Interesting to stop using lead magnets to lift up the “quality“ of your newsletter subscribers. Is it for you also nonsens to ask viewers “to subscribe“, “like“ and “share“ your youtube video?

Golden age will always be Filthy Frank!

Thanks Shane 🙏 I’m already in your newsletter 😄 hmm.. Your video made me want to know, how do you actually create content or come up with the idea of a content piece, that is not general but authentic? Maybe you’d answer this in another video. Cheers, mate

Cortana: In the next Win Update 24H2 apparently Cortana is gone ;-)

You may have explained it at some point in the video and I may have missed it, but would there be any downside to include any other natural, non-processed, unsalted plant foods into the diet (e.g., berries, nuts, cooked lentils etc.)? All the reasons for the potato diet (resetting one's taste experience, gut health etc.) should apply to them as well.

0:50 - "Hyperflavorful?" More like hypersalty. Take the salt away and no savory fast food meal is appealing.

Bet you lost weight...

Underrated video, seriously.

Is this something to do everyday for your journal entries, and as intense as how you guys do it in the opening segment.

Hey shane , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?

Whatever you do, do it awake: ruclips.net/video/sb05vbEe9vM/видео.html

Thank you so much, i really needed to hear something like this.

Reminds me of my boss praising me for handling stress extraordinary well. My thoughts were "That's because I just don't give a f...!": When we have a deadline I just talk with my colleges about priorities and I try to optimise my workflow before I start. Then I just continue working, but it doesn't matter to me wether I can accomplish all goals in time or not. I know I did everything I could. And in the end it's not my company (and therefore not my problem). A missed deadline is usually manageable. Life will go on.

I love the way life works sometimes. Today I was re-reading The Power of Now, the chapter on how resistance makes things more difficult. I am now hearing the same input from you. Thanks for the video Shane. And yes, I'd be interested in a meditation on letting go.

letting go of trying and not overworrying are very different. you should absolutely not stop trying.

Me with chores 🥲

Yay, finally some productivity advice acknowledging this - against all the "no pain no gain" brainwashing we see ;). As a chronically over-tensed person I discovered the concept of "letting go of unnecessary tension" through bodywork. I am a former professional dancer and it makes so much sense. E.g. Strala Yoga is building on this principle and I love how you can practise "letting go in order to accomplish more" on the mat. Gives an awesome reference point for real life & work. Shane, I would be very interested in the meditation practice you talk about!

Great video, I've been struggling to come up with a suitable analogy to use with my running coaching clients to explain why they should "let go" of the outcome of a race as it ads unnecessary tension. Your "trying to sleep" example fits the bill very well. I will borrow that. Also interested in a guided meditation on letting go of trying.

Very good video elaborating on the concept of emotional regulation that is scientifically recognized that this is the number 1 cause of procrastination. people don't avoid tasks, they avoid the feelings they attach to the task. the moment people can find calm in regard of the task, procrastination disappears.

thought provoking

Overall, a very interesting topic! But there's one thing I don't really understand. Clearly, there is a correlation bewteen well-being and the "flow-state". But how can we make the assumption that the "flow-state" would cause the well-being and not the other way around? It could even be argued that it would make more sense to have it the other way around, that general well-being would cause more frequent "flow-states". Maybe there's more to the source that you displayed in the video that I'm missing here?

Yes, it seems to be counter-intuitive, but it's true. If it's hard to let go, you can "just let it be ... " without engaging, and eventually loose interest. Do you know Jamie Smart's book "Clarity: Clear Mind, Better Performance, Bigger Results"? It speaks to this phenomenon.

Wonder what your poop was like during the 5 days…

Reset is awesome and oh sooooo boring but it kicks but healthwise I am going back on for 30 days I was losing 1 lb a day when I did the reset B4 ( Marys mini) I feel so good after being on it 4 a while I aloso heardly eat many spuds just Not hungry ALso got weak. Now I can enjoy a spud all on its own I NEVER even wanted 2 look at a spud after mays mini that went on for almost 30 days i cheated and used salsa, ketchup or BBQ sauce this time none of that my goal is to lose so many lbs I HABE 2 4 my health then I am going on raw food veggies and fruit to keep all inflammation out of my body TU 4 the great video

Yes! And this requires a fairly high level of self knowledge /self awareness, an inner relationship based on trust and resting in deep inner security and care which allows to have the courage needed to explore and experiment like that... Thank you for sharing your journey.

Yes, the mess, the discomfort, the unpredictability of Life /Nature... I feel like we, humans, got really spooked by nature's discomfort and the pain of loss it entailed... it still feels scary when the winds blow harshly and the lightning strikes, when the rivers flood, and the earth quakes... we seem to be sensitive 'instruments'... so we started creating more and more protection /safety for ourselves... we wanted safer shelters, more consistent food supply... understandable... so, I do have compassion for us... but... I feel that we are invited to explore much deeper, to bow before Nature, and make friends w our own 'untamed' states and aspects... where 'boundaries' don't mean that there is no room for the chaos and mess of life, nature, and being human.

I have tears flowing. The heart knows and the heart responds. Thank you for being you. What you articulated is TheThing that kept me from doing business beyond toe testing and 'meddling'... There was a part of me that could not imagine how I could keep growing and evolving if and when I market one version of myself to an audience...and I did not want to stop growing and evolving... I am still in this quest with the deeper quest of how to be a human, making sense of life, and especially close relationships... harmonious functioning of body, family, community... and I would love to be able to share my insights and discoveries w/o losing myself in the process... I hope it's possible. <3

Funny when a obviously always skinny guy tells us how to lose weight. And you are acting like you found this out. This was written about 150 years ago.

Excellent review.
