I have consumed an infinite number of podcasts, audiobooks, books and articles about productivity and weightloss. I have decided lately to cut any content or shit about weight loss, guess what.. i am finally losing weight and i am just following my intuition now and not trying to confirm my bias with a 2h podcast. I'm done learning, I need to apply and experience. Thank you Sam. "Do The Work", I can hear it while sleeping
@@ditplm Not yet , I have young kids now, that and approaching 50 is really pushing me to change. It is happening but not as fast as i would like. A huge help has been cutting sugar out of my diet as much as possible. I have been weening off it for a year. The difference is huge and my brain doesnt constantly hurt now.
This is a great video. Provides more utility than a lot of the bigger 'self-help' channels. It feels like you're speaking from experience and not just regurgitating self-help topic buzzwords and it shows in the quality of the content. Love what you're doing man.
I'm 23 and been into this loop for years 😭.. Thanks for the video this did gave me a wake up call I was reading and reading and reading, taking courses on web design, playing with chatgpt and all but not taking any single action just consuming knowledge.. While reading and coming across an "aha moment" I imagine myself "intelligent" and also now I am above others kind.. Does anyone here also feel the same way?.. I have noticed this objectively reflecting and started making clear goals to achieve outcomes Thanks for this video
I'm continually amazed at how your videos hit the nail on the head. This is a great reminder for several initiatives that I'm pursuing right now, including Podcasting, videos, and a premium ghostwriting business. I'm already in action on all of them, but I realize I do not have any information gaps at all. Last year I recognized that thinking about these things and learning about these things all the time makes it feel like it's a lot of work. But it's not the same as actually doing them lol. They really don't take all that much time. Thanks again for the great videos.
You Tube is a haven…and a hell for information seekers. I have been very unproductive while consuming too much interesting content. You named it and I need to make some changes to what I am doing with my life. Much appreciated, deb.
Yes, getting stuck in the learning phase can certainly be a problem. And to start working and applying the ideas as soon as possible will also motivate you to learn more, and you will then also more easily choose what to learn since you know what will be useful. Sometimes you do need to learn a lot before it is meaningful to even start with some kind of application though. It depends a lot in the subject and application. But of course, regerdless of subject, eventually it will turn into a form of procastination if you never start applying it.
I think youtube knows where i am at coz I am at planning mode. This video is a good reminder to take more actions. I think my problem is lack of resources (capital) coz learning at this point is fairly cheap but time consuming but I enjoy doing it.
Great video. Sometimes it'll be nice to see an image to support your talk, for example at 12:30 when you're gesturing with your hands. (You can make quick diagrams easily in Keynote on the Mac or Power Point elsewhere)
Sam how to build connections relationships with high value people in workplace/career to sky rocket our success in less time ? What are the key steps to take for networking & using it for benefit...
For me huge problems come up when I try to take action. For example I don't have enough money, something surprising comes up financially, someone let's me down or changes the plans, or the task is so complex and lengthy I lose my attention. Do you have a solution to these problems that arrise when we take action? Action = pain.
@@criticalthinker-ys7vt from all the practical perspective - yes, but for me it doesnt feels like it, especially grind what I am trying to say is that playing is one step forward from "watching and never playing", the next one is making mods
Not only are u informative and helpful, u r also very very hot. Love ur accent (kiwi, I guess?) thank you for the video, gonna get up from the bed and get some shit done. Cheers from Russia
Amazing timing, I have been doom scrolling like crazy lately, and I want to compulsively delete social media and all my “watch later”s on RUclips! just looking at your channel I want to watch every video first 🫠 but I won’t. I need to chill and refocus and quit watching videos in manic mode…after college in 1995 I hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back up in one day, alone! no map, no cell phone, no internet….i can do hard things 🙃

Love it. Keep at it!
This is my life. It has destroyed me and I hate myself for it. I have spun my own wheels for decades.
Same here 🥲 have you managed to get out of it? If so, how?
No, it’s actually my life

thank you for sharing your experience with sugar, also wishing you all the luck in the world@@EnlightenedSavage
So many languages in the world and bro chose to speak FACTS 👏🏻 👏🏻
That's ME-- I'm an INFORMATION COLLECTOR... I love finding the new info... and it sits.. and sits.. .... :)
nothing like hopping onto RUclips knowing that I'm stuck in a learning loop and seeing this video first thing on the feed 😂
🤣
Great video. Fear of making a mistake, fear of failing … leading to “failing” in a “blameless” way by avoiding risky action. Horrible trap.
Every time you said "learning loop" I heard "looney loop" and I didnt even think about it, I was like, yeah thats what this feels like 😂
😄
You don not have idea how much I do need to hear that. Just simple THANK YOU.
This is a great video. Provides more utility than a lot of the bigger 'self-help' channels. It feels like you're speaking from experience and not just regurgitating self-help topic buzzwords and it shows in the quality of the content. Love what you're doing man.
Thank you. Really appreciate the positive feedback
This is exactly what I think!

That’s is so me! Now I understand I’m nothing but ignorant 😢
Thanks! I came to RUclips looking for something else but this was exactly what I needed to hear today.

One of the excellent videos you have made till now..... Knowledge vs skill - well defined. Thank you.
Love that you use black background for text now. Much easier on the eyes. :)
It is actually the opposite for me, I get an easier time with black text over light background.
Thanks for speaking a bunch of facts and not a bunch of nonsense like other RUclipsrs...
I'm definitely guilty of this myself. Thanks for the reminder.
unfortunately.. you are 100% correct!!

thanks,actions is the most importnat thing!!!!
Could you maybe list some books and podcast episodes where i can dive deeper into this topic? 😂 Just kiddin, great Video!
😂

Fantastic video, thanks a lot for this message!

I didn't know Dawson became an entrepreneur, well done! Show it to Joey!

Ohh.man.. so succinct.. Consumption Centric Learning.. Guilty as charged 😢
Thank you for no goofy B roll clip or background music. They are so distracting.
But you can't argue, you feels more confident in the field he's studying. 😅
I stopped watching after 8 minutes, to take actions!
good!
funny part is that playing video games is actually an action. I know because I procrastinate instead of playing, still thinking of returning some day)
its not, its just entertainment.

Yes, but... 28 minutes?
Watch it on 2x speed and it’s only 14 mins 🤷♂️
I listened with AirPods while walking; it was time well spent.
