this all makes sense, when you are an individual living by yourself. but when u have a family ( maybe a kid-toddler) and other family affairs, then life becomes much more chaotic. the case u presented about walk the dog, work, walk the dog -- this feels too much of luxury when u have lot of chaos in your life( which to some extent not in your control). Can you shade some light if you have some thoughts on this.?
Sometimes the reason you fell behind is not a lack of motivation or ambition but because you were struggling with something that took all your energy. Like depression or anxiety.
or something or someone who took all your money, like being scammed or a spouse who kept asking for money without thinking for his/her partner until he/she is completely drained financially and into huge debts, then leave him/her after that
It`s really nIce to read this in a time, when you basically hear the opposite all the time. Like "you have less time than you might think" or " you won`t live forever" and so on.
U forget the world shits on this age group since they were teens saying they aren’t good enough. When I was 22 and 24 I was embarrassed of my age and thought I was old in some circles or activities 🤷♀️
You'll come to realize that it's all nonsensical, and nobody truly cares about your life as you get older. You alone are responsible for your life; it is your choice to live without regrets.
I don't know if anyone will read this but I'd like to share a part of my story. I was 21, just joined a medical school. That year was my first year. So I was lagging behind by quite a large margin when compared to a most of my colleagues, who generally entered one at the age of 18 here. I was extremely addicted to a few things, it took me three years to come clean. I cleared the entrance exam, scored pretty good, but failed to get a subsidized seat. So I entered an expensive college. Nearly costing me $100k for 5.5 years of school. It was so depressing. I had technically brought my life on track, but I lived in guilt that my parents suffered so much because of me. I tried swinging my arms around to try to earn a few bucks to elevate a bit of pressure off of them. The problem is, the unemployment rate here is so high that trying to get a part time is almost impossible. I started writing stories. I earned a bit through it, just enough to get by in that month. But it all worked out in the end. I'll graduate as an ophthalmologist in a year. I'll be 29 by then. I'm earning quite decent right now. So I would say life has turned out okay. I was a bit late at a lot of things. But it'll turn out fine. All the best to everyone who's struggling with things. It'll all be okay.
I'm 20, though not in school yet due to financial constraints. I would love to be a dentist in the future. It's not been easy accepting that I'm not where I want to be, but I know that I will get there. Just say a word of prayer for me. Love, from Nigeria🇳🇬❤️
@@HelloHuman-fz5ww I used to ghostwrite for a few writers. That paid me like £500 a month. It was quite a lot at least for me and enough to get by in that month.
How to stop feeling behind in life....stop comparing yourself to others....recognise that 99.9% of social media content is a lie....better yet get off social media and actually start living your life
I think the hardest part is when real people in your own life seem to be doing quite good for themselves. That's what I seem to be struggling with - not that they're doing well, but more so that I'm not doing as well as I should be. I think it's fairly easy to shut off social media, but much harder to shut off your family and friends/peers in real life.
@@melbourneplanespotter3631 I'm struggling with this too, I've missed so many opportunities when I was in my 20's due to family life getting in the way that now I'm free from that (22 years of it) that at 38 I feel it's too late to make a start of anything 🙄🤷♀️
Allow the distance between where you are and where you want to be to inspire you instead of being terrified by it. I read this somewhere and I kind of have it as a mantra
The coolest part of this video: he didn't record it all once, and actually got back to this 3 days after to finish. Casually after the gym session he picked up where he stopped and just went on talking about Jane's story. Thank you for including this in your video. Because that's the thing I struggle with the most. I feel like I have to do it all at once and all ideal from the first time. Many many thanks 🙏

Happy Birthday @thewolfeden ! I have really been enjoying my 30s so far - there's a lot of cultural narratives around being out of your twenties but in my experience, I really have been enjoying the reflecting and reorienting I've been doing in this decade of my life. It's not always fun to live through but it's very satisfying to uncover how I became this person I am now and where I would like to reorient toward. Sending love your way! ✨
I paused the video at 02:14 and thought about my ideal day - something I have never done. And I realised that its all things that I could be doing. I just ... dont. So this was a great video to trigger some better thinking about my life. Thanks!

"A therapist focuses on the past" is a very inaccurate description of what therapy is. It's very much focused on the present, which sometimes includes people being stuck with their relationship to the past and current anxieties about the future. It's very important not to parrot this misconception that therapy is just people sitting around and rehashing their childhood because these stereotypes prevent people, who very much need therapy, from seeking it.
Yeah from a generally intelligent and kind person this is a very surprising and huge mistake. And said SO casually, as though it is truth. He has no doubt that he is correct, and yet he has fundamentally misunderstood what therapy is.
Also came to say this, I heard what Ali said and did a double take! Hope no one takes this the wrong way, but the main difference between a coach and a therapist is that therapists actually need an education to call themselves that - a degree and a valid license. Anyone can call themselves a coach. No offense.
The majority of therapy is focused on the now. Changing cognitive and behavioral patterns and processes. Implementing specific skills and tools to do that.
Mm depends on the therapist. It's true that you need a degree and license to call yourself a therapist but that's not the same as education I've been to multiple therapists at different times in my life and it was never helpful - I would always go and tell said therapist about what was wrong in my life, hoping for strategies on how to fix it (which I feel like is a pretty reasonable request considering this is a paid for "service")? And instead I got "that sounds really hard" like yeah it is but it could not be if you would help me out here Therapy in theory can be quite helpful Therapy in practice is significantly less so because there's so many different ways to practice it - including what he cited
Great video. I believe it is good to feel concerned about your life and future. The majority of the people are living in a slumber where they are content with their mediocre lives.
they enjoy scrolling their phone on TikTok, RUclips and other social media. You can easily see this pattern in public places This new found habit is not easy to unlearn
@@alrxalw Well there's nothing wrong with wanting things to change but you aren't changing anything. The issue comes when somebody else finds out about it
Downloaded OPAL last week as per your recommendation and MY LIFE HAS CHANGED!! Not even joking. 55% screen time down. No scrolls in the morning or the evening 🙏
So you just cold turkey stopped your addiction and didn't miss it at all? Or like... I don't understand this mindset of it "just working" with no hiccups along the way.
@@SaxANeves for me, the free version allows one block. So I use that to block out social apps at certain times. If you want more than one block you can pay.
Accepting where you are and appreciating every small achievement without guilt is so important! The moment I started writing down my Weekly Tasks and breaking it down into Daily (Achievable) Tasks, I felt so much better about myself. I hope I’m able to achieve my Ideal Week in the coming months :) Update: I've started waking up early in the morning without an alarm and have made great progress on my ideal week!

You sound like you’ve had much success with this step, do you have any tips? It’s been extremely hard for me to tell myself I’ve done well or I’ve done enough. And when i do something right i also subconsciously feel terrible because this is something i should’ve done 15 years ago, this should be easy to me by now, but something as basic as this is so hard for me to do and i cant help but feel bad about it. People say to “appreciate small achievements” but i think self praise is also abit weird. May i have some advice on this 🙏
I love how you’ve used the word “nudge.” It provides opportunities to push you in the right direction while leaving room for flexibility & forgiveness and build momentum to keep making that next step. Hard lines on habits can bring up so much shame of failure sometimes but a constant nudge in the right direction seems a lot healthier. Removing shame like you say later in the video sets yourself up for success so much more. Nudges can be used positively too when used to remove friction. Using your Infinite Content Engine provides me an easy nudge to always be thinking through ideas for my channel. Putting a non-fiction book I’m reading always next to my computer helps me read a chapter before I start work. Always having Skyr yogurt and Apples in my fridge nudge me in the direction of always choosing a healthier snack choice. All these nudges in either direction have helped me build so much momentum but I’ve never thought about it in that framework before. Thanks for this video! It gave me a lot to think about.

While I'm doing just fine in my life, I know plenty of people who feel behind. I'm going to watch this and try to pass the wisdom on in a manner tailored to my friends. Thanks for this, Ali!
I couldn't help but tear up when I realized I didn't think I was someone worth taking care of and it explains a lot of my habits pertaining to myself. Thank you Ali. I feel like this is maybe one of the first steps of many.
Interesting how this is exactly how I was feeling a few days earlier. And when I look at things now, I just need to start a momentum in the change I want to see for my life. By the way, Ali, I’m one of your Skillshare students and because your content I learned how to start my RUclips Channel which now is nearing 20k subscribers and I have 85k followers in my Facebook page which focuses on Korean language learning for Filipinos. I followed your steps and it worked well for me with a few bumps on the road. And I also bought your FEEL GOOD PRODUCTIVITY Book (still reading by the way) and your guidance is fueling my passions. You’re my ultimate productivity coach and thank you for being here for us. I’m now 31 and I don’t know where life will lead me but with you here, I’m not as afraid as I was before. Thank you and your team, Ali.
So true on the small things. I take pride in something small like making my bed every day, knowing that at the end of the day I get to finish my day getting into a neatly made bed, but in taking pride in that one small action it normally leads to doing another small thing and another small thing which compounds throughout the day. Even on my worst days I can still make my bed every morning.
My ideal week would also be to work 3 hours a day and walk the dog or have other leisure time for 4 hours a day, then go to the gym for 2 hours and then relax for the rest of the day. Too bad life doesn't work that way and normal people actually have to work for a living instead of walking the dog.
At 45, broke, unemployed. Going throught the weeds of this atm. I dont actually have any interest in being alive, but not actively able to end things . Yes on the meds, but Theres not much point really. Funnily im doing somewhat better so im actually able to even share that thats where ive been at /am at . People want to "fix" , but id rather just not
Just because a lot of people mindlessly follow ambition (including me btw) - it doesn't mean it's actually right for you (something I just realized). And when people finally achieve what they want what happens? They feel a short term buzz then start wanting again. We're never satisfied! Jordan Peterson says, "Don't compare yourself to anyone else, compare yourself to you yesterday!" I thought this was a really interesting re-orientation. But you can just focus on trying to find peace and joy in your life Dat to day. I wish you quality of life!
I am not 45, but I have been in your mind space few months ago. So I understand. For the past 15 years, I had it rough, nothing was working. Had nothing to show for being alive. Countless heartbreaks, no love life, no money, no child, nothing. I was suicidal. Until I noticed it's a universe thing, I'm an aqua. Trust me, if you commit suicide, you would have deprive yourself of an opportunity to experience positive change. And trust it will come. Tough times don't last, tough people do. And by the way, I am almost 40😅
'Designing your life' really did help improve my life, especially the section where they tell you to assess four aspects of your life. Happiness did in fact depend on the healthy levels of these four areas: Health, Work, Play and Relationship. It gives a perfect clarity on how even in the most mundane life, you can find true peace and happiness just tweaking a few things and making sure all four of these are in the right amount of your life.
much needed video thanks ali. I have been folowing your form 5 years now and your videos have helped me grow and still it helps me every single day. keep doing the great work ali. hope to see you soon one day.
As an investing enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?
Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience.If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.
The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.
Svetlana Sarkisian Chowdhury a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
I have a dog, my very first one, and yes, it's almost a full-time job. However, over the last year, she has given me hope and motivation to improve myself. I love our morning walks in the park: when I see her happy, I’m happy too, and it’s great to start my day knowing I’ve done something to make her feel that way. :) I REALLY liked your graphic about the baseline we consider a good life and how to move above that line and, as a persone who still struggle with depression, I totally agree on what you said, good job!
Found myself at the age of 32 but took me 7-8 years to climb to unimaginable success. You can do it alot sooner with guidance and constructive feedback. Stay Uncommon!
The last part of the cycle, and how one habit brings the other because of the way you feel and you identify with, is really strong. I see it in my self all the time. Thank you for another great video!

Wow this really resonated with me, especially differentiating between the X and Y advice. I’ve been way too focused on the huge life changes stuff (like wanting a fresh start in another country and/or job) and getting so overwhelmed that I shutdown and become paralysed with indecision. When really, I’m below baseline right now and need to build momentum with small things over time. In the past I have dived head first into big changes/moves and it’s been great, but thinking about doing that now feels way too scary and overwhelming- I needed to hear that that’s not always the best way to tackle things, there are other options. Thanks Ali, this is really helpful❤
It has become my most favorite among all of your videos. I have bought your book and started reading it. Really this video is one hell of a boost for me. Taking the small step first by consuming more water daily. Thank you very much.
I am about to be 21 and feel that I'm not good enough and have lost my spark. Sometimes I feel lost in life and feel like running away. I thank you wholeheartedly for bringing this video. Thank you so much Ali, you helped a lot!
I appreciate that Ali takes time to read and heart all the comments, even when Ali has a huge subbie base. I really learnt something crucial from this video. Thanks, Ali. You rock! I subbed 😊
Yup, taking a dog out 4x/day is quite a burden on time. The love though ❤❤❤ and thankfully, being forced to walk for dozens of hours per week without a break ever is quite healthy
I have been feeling low since morning, and this video popped up on my RUclips. I received my work permit a few months back (In April) and am actively seeking a job. I thought I was below baseline because I felt useless. After watching this video, I realized that I am at the baseline i.e. 'My life is reasonably good' because I am doing most of the things I would want to get done in my ideal day which is exercising, eating healthy, taking care of the house, spending quality time with my partner, and studying. Thank you for this video. I will try to incorporate the small and big changes to improve further.
It would be so great to see a series of something like this where you follow along with somebody improving their life using these ideas, seeing the speed bumps, struggles, successes etc.
Ikr, this video is from a man who went to cambridge at a young age and then went on to become a millionare youtuber at a young age...this is condescending
I had to study and work 10 years to gain my qualifications for my job. I felt behind in my personal life when I did. Truth is everyone feels like they are behind in one aspect or another by comparing with others, our elders, neighbours etc. Truth is be happy with what you do have and live in the moment. Just know someone out there has it worst off than you. Be grateful for what you do have even if you do go through hard times. Know you are not alone. Someone had to go through the same hardships.
She's pretty successful knowing what an ideal day would look like. When I think about it I realize that an ideal day is a day when I have to do absolutely nothing, feel absolutely nothing, more like the time has stopped moving at all.
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stocck portfoli0
It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. You don’t have to act on every forecast, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on
Right, I've been in constant touch with a fiinancial-analyst since covid . You know these days it's really easy to buy into trending e task is determining when to buy or sell . My advisorr decides entry and exit commands on my portfoliio, I've accrued over $300k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K.
Meticulous planning, structuring, and creating expectations on yourself is not a cure but a disease - total freedom lies in giving yourself space, and freedom, and to trust in yourself being able to make the best of it - sometimes you have bad days, sometimes you have good days. There is not mystery or guide to teach you this.
thank you for this video! it’s all concepts that I’m very familiar with but the way it’s explained it was very refreshing. it’s simple and concise, helps clear out the overwhelming feelings that I get as someone in their 20’s.
Hey love your vids but therapists very much DO FOCUS on what to do next and even give you assignments. Pls correct this so people don’t get the wrong impressions of this, it’s already such a thing where people don’t get therapy.
I agree, that's what therapy ( like cognitive behavioral therapy ) does. I was surprised and worried by the statement he made because he has such a huge platform. And as he says in this video peolpe contact him for advice. Hopefully they will do their research about the benefit of therapy and take his opinion about it with a grain of salt. Aside from that, his video is good, but what he said about therapy stuck with me.
It continues to amaze me how great RUclipsrs find very creative ways to add an affiliation, I didn't see it coming. I'm learning a lot about the subject, appreciated. well done.
Loved the video, just one thing: it's a misconception that a therapist only works with/on your past, actually a (good) therapist IS a coach, who focuses on the past, present and future :)
I don't think that a therapist only works on someone's past. They also work on a person's future. And the thing you explained in the "Ideal Day" segment is also done by a therapist, especially when people have dysfunctional thinking patterns. I love your videos and have followed you for a long time, but I thought I'll clarify this as a psychology researcher that your videos mostly cater to the psychologically "normal". People with dysfunctional thinking and behaviour won't understand these concepts so easily. That's where a therapist comes in. I hope you understand :)
This is a great video I really appreciate the dedication in each video you post, I learn a lot watching your videos and it has always been helpful to me. Building a steady income is quite difficult for newbies.. Thanks to Abel Dorsey for improving my portfolio. keep up with the good videos.
no joke opal has changed my life. downloaded it on a whim about a month ago because of another content creator and it has cut my screen time 49% which is WILD. working on getting it even lower :)
This is it!! Especially the keystone habits and taking care of yourself FIRST. When you get those habits in place and prioritize your health and wellbeing, everything else gets a lot easier. Thanks for sharing Ali, and echoing the exact key takeaway I got from Craft + Commerce last week. (btw, we met briefly in the elevator going to John Meese's book launch party, I'm the health copywriter, hi again! ) I realized I need to get out of my own way and instead of watching RUclips for 2-3 hours every morning 😬 I need to re-implement a morning routine that actually makes me feel good and supports my journey as a creator and business owner. Also, I'm going to start making RUclips videos to grow my audience! Cheers to being real and walking the talk. :)
Thanks, Ali! Your "ideal day" and "ideal week" planning method is fantastic. For me amplenote was the perfect tool do to this, amplenote just boosted my productivity big time. Appreciate the tips!
Honestly speaking, your videos doesn't contain any value addition to the audience. Nobody want to plan everything and those who plan don't need your help for planning.
True. This feeling is real. I am a medical doctor in Bangladesh. I see people passing PG exams, doing BCS and what not. And here I am doing something completely different. I have a freelance business (I write online ebooks to make around $1000-2000) so money is not the issue. The issue however is how sometimes I feel left behind in my career. Great video Ali. Always the motivation.
Love listening to you Ali and your awesome capacity to structure and define and your journey and podcast are so brilliant ….. …. in this episode I appreciated you clearly saying you are not a therapist and I heard a vibe of slightly dismissing therapy as being just about the past - good therapy is so much more - embodiment, inhabiting more of who we are, digesting undigested pain from the past in the present, deep listening, learning how to relate to oneself with kindness rather than criticism to name a few things. 😊
Ali, all these things were exactly what I needed 😢 such simple concepts, but, so so powerful! I am not good with expressing emotions through words, but I am so so grateful for everything you do ❤
I'm a in heavy stressful situation (family members, anixety, depression, etc.) And this helped me, I cried because I was happy, I also feeling heavily numb (like real bad, some people say it's confusion & your brain is trying to protect you, so I think that's what was going on) though I'm starting to feel emotions again. Thank you so much for helping me ^^
A psychologist does not focus just on the past, perhaps traditionally many decades ago. Your past does not have to define you but to understand it is important for your present and future, at least for people that are into personal growth. The age old saying 'never forget where you come from' is so powerful for a reason.
This has helped me unblock a bit Ali, thank you! I am pulling myself as best I can (with therapy help) out of a depression and anxiety hole at the moment and this is helping me find productive ways to focus on the future that aren't self-defeating. Fingers crossed for the rest of my 'quest' here, but for now, I appreciate the help :)
I have watched many of your videos but this one resonates with me on next level. Recently I had started taking small steps everyday and I could feel my life gaining momentum and moving above the baseline and yes I have few answers to the questions you asked for the people above the baseline. I feel so happy that I finally started to move in my life and then I came across this video. So yeah I’m going in the right direction just by taking small steps every day. It’s amazing…
THE advice I need! I'm in my late 30s now but still haven't found much purpose in my life ( I got into a career which felt like a misfit for me in my 20s ) THANK YOU :)

Can you please talk about the ongoing genocide in Gaza?
this all makes sense, when you are an individual living by yourself. but when u have a family ( maybe a kid-toddler) and other family affairs, then life becomes much more chaotic. the case u presented about walk the dog, work, walk the dog -- this feels too much of luxury when u have lot of chaos in your life( which to some extent not in your control). Can you shade some light if you have some thoughts on this.?
@aliabdal can you suggest a book about stoicism for someone who wants to initiate to this philosophy
Sometimes the reason you fell behind is not a lack of motivation or ambition but because you were struggling with something that took all your energy. Like depression or anxiety.
yep, I definitely feel that right now. It's really hard going through depression for sure.

"Behind in life"? I'd LOVE to be in my late 20's or 30's again. You have SO MUCH TIME ahead of you.
It`s really nIce to read this in a time, when you basically hear the opposite all the time. Like "you have less time than you might think" or " you won`t live forever" and so on.
U forget the world shits on this age group since they were teens saying they aren’t good enough. When I was 22 and 24 I was embarrassed of my age and thought I was old in some circles or activities 🤷♀️

Secret Pathway To Triumph is so unique. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard about it sooner. It’s amazing how life-changing this can be.
I don't know if anyone will read this but I'd like to share a part of my story. I was 21, just joined a medical school. That year was my first year. So I was lagging behind by quite a large margin when compared to a most of my colleagues, who generally entered one at the age of 18 here. I was extremely addicted to a few things, it took me three years to come clean. I cleared the entrance exam, scored pretty good, but failed to get a subsidized seat. So I entered an expensive college. Nearly costing me $100k for 5.5 years of school. It was so depressing. I had technically brought my life on track, but I lived in guilt that my parents suffered so much because of me.
I tried swinging my arms around to try to earn a few bucks to elevate a bit of pressure off of them. The problem is, the unemployment rate here is so high that trying to get a part time is almost impossible.
I started writing stories. I earned a bit through it, just enough to get by in that month. But it all worked out in the end. I'll graduate as an ophthalmologist in a year. I'll be 29 by then. I'm earning quite decent right now. So I would say life has turned out okay. I was a bit late at a lot of things. But it'll turn out fine. All the best to everyone who's struggling with things. It'll all be okay.
Thank you much needed
I'm 20, though not in school yet due to financial constraints. I would love to be a dentist in the future. It's not been easy accepting that I'm not where I want to be, but I know that I will get there. Just say a word of prayer for me. Love, from Nigeria🇳🇬❤️

How to stop feeling behind in life....stop comparing yourself to others....recognise that 99.9% of social media content is a lie....better yet get off social media and actually start living your life
So true!
I think the hardest part is when real people in your own life seem to be doing quite good for themselves. That's what I seem to be struggling with - not that they're doing well, but more so that I'm not doing as well as I should be.
I think it's fairly easy to shut off social media, but much harder to shut off your family and friends/peers in real life.
fact!
@@melbourneplanespotter3631 I'm struggling with this too, I've missed so many opportunities when I was in my 20's due to family life getting in the way that now I'm free from that (22 years of it) that at 38 I feel it's too late to make a start of anything 🙄🤷♀️

Allow the distance between where you are and where you want to be to inspire you instead of being terrified by it. I read this somewhere and I kind of have it as a mantra
Yes, and the more uncomfortable the gap between where you are and where you want to be, the more it motivates you.
The coolest part of this video: he didn't record it all once, and actually got back to this 3 days after to finish. Casually after the gym session he picked up where he stopped and just went on talking about Jane's story. Thank you for including this in your video. Because that's the thing I struggle with the most. I feel like I have to do it all at once and all ideal from the first time. Many many thanks 🙏

Happy birthday fellow Gemini 🎉!
Happy birthday !!! 🎉
My 30th birthday was June 4th. Im right there with you bud. Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday @thewolfeden ! I have really been enjoying my 30s so far - there's a lot of cultural narratives around being out of your twenties but in my experience, I really have been enjoying the reflecting and reorienting I've been doing in this decade of my life. It's not always fun to live through but it's very satisfying to uncover how I became this person I am now and where I would like to reorient toward. Sending love your way! ✨
You don't know how you touch our lives in a pretty good way. Thanks for your every endeavour to make us more productive, alive, and motivated!
Jane's Ideal week would be walking the dog 24*7
Hah! Maybe she should become a professional dog walker! I've even considered it myself!
She should really make a RUclips channel about walking her dog lol
and maybe start a podcast while walking the dog
jane i hope you’re taking notes
Hahaha
I paused the video at 02:14 and thought about my ideal day - something I have never done. And I realised that its all things that I could be doing. I just ... dont. So this was a great video to trigger some better thinking about my life. Thanks!

I did the same thing!
"Within the boundaries of what you can physically, visibly improve." Very key statement there.
"A therapist focuses on the past" is a very inaccurate description of what therapy is. It's very much focused on the present, which sometimes includes people being stuck with their relationship to the past and current anxieties about the future. It's very important not to parrot this misconception that therapy is just people sitting around and rehashing their childhood because these stereotypes prevent people, who very much need therapy, from seeking it.
Yeah from a generally intelligent and kind person this is a very surprising and huge mistake. And said SO casually, as though it is truth. He has no doubt that he is correct, and yet he has fundamentally misunderstood what therapy is.
Also came to say this, I heard what Ali said and did a double take! Hope no one takes this the wrong way, but the main difference between a coach and a therapist is that therapists actually need an education to call themselves that - a degree and a valid license. Anyone can call themselves a coach. No offense.
Not what therapy is, just rationalizing your therapy with her.
The majority of therapy is focused on the now. Changing cognitive and behavioral patterns and processes. Implementing specific skills and tools to do that.
Mm depends on the therapist. It's true that you need a degree and license to call yourself a therapist but that's not the same as education
I've been to multiple therapists at different times in my life and it was never helpful - I would always go and tell said therapist about what was wrong in my life, hoping for strategies on how to fix it (which I feel like is a pretty reasonable request considering this is a paid for "service")? And instead I got "that sounds really hard" like yeah it is but it could not be if you would help me out here
Therapy in theory can be quite helpful
Therapy in practice is significantly less so because there's so many different ways to practice it - including what he cited
Great video. I believe it is good to feel concerned about your life and future. The majority of the people are living in a slumber where they are content with their mediocre lives.
they enjoy scrolling their phone on TikTok, RUclips and other social media. You can easily see this pattern in public places

I love how you’ve used the word “nudge.” It provides opportunities to push you in the right direction while leaving room for flexibility & forgiveness and build momentum to keep making that next step. Hard lines on habits can bring up so much shame of failure sometimes but a constant nudge in the right direction seems a lot healthier. Removing shame like you say later in the video sets yourself up for success so much more.
Nudges can be used positively too when used to remove friction. Using your Infinite Content Engine provides me an easy nudge to always be thinking through ideas for my channel. Putting a non-fiction book I’m reading always next to my computer helps me read a chapter before I start work. Always having Skyr yogurt and Apples in my fridge nudge me in the direction of always choosing a healthier snack choice.
All these nudges in either direction have helped me build so much momentum but I’ve never thought about it in that framework before.
Thanks for this video! It gave me a lot to think about.

Therefore, to enter Paradise and to survive punishment , must follow the last of the Prophets and Messengers, mohammed ﷺ ..We also believe in all the heavenly books such as : The Bible , the torah , the zabor ... Which " ALLAH الله " revealed to his prophets and messengers ، But it has changed and distorted. Therefore, " الله " sent Muhammad ﷺ with the
" Qur’an “ God’s Preserved Words” to restore the previous religions to the truth.There is a lot of evidence that indicates that the Qur’an is a miracle ... We mention for example: its rhetorical and linguistic miracle, its scientific miracle, as it talked about scientific facts that have been discovered now only after technological development, just as the Qur’an talked about historical facts that they will happen and have already occurred Most of the current discoveries, in all fields, are present and mentioned in the Qur’an 14 centuries ago .The biggest sin in Islam is "shirk " polytheism For example, to worship Jesus This is a shirk Whoever worships other than God "Allah الله " is in the hell .We love and believe in all the prophets and messengers , but worship is only for " ALLAH الله " Like prayer and asking for forgiveness and mercy are only for " Allah الله " .whoever become Muslim all sins are forgiven by " ALLAH الله"He is like a new page, so he should be keen on doing good deeds Because heaven is the abode of bliss , pleasure , And everything your soul desires and what " الله ALLAH" has prepared for its people is beyond imagination The five pillars of Islam: Shahada, establish prayer, Zakat, fasting Ramadan, and Hajj.The Pillars of Faith: It is the belief in God "Allah الله " , His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and Predestination " Qadar " .A free person is a Muslim , by his servitude to " الله ALLAH ", is liberated from everythingTo become a Muslim, the first thing to do is to say

I am a 14 year old girl I am on a self help journey I am so glad that I found you and you help me a lot thank you so much Ali Brother
And I am envious... but I am happy for you❤
While I'm doing just fine in my life, I know plenty of people who feel behind. I'm going to watch this and try to pass the wisdom on in a manner tailored to my friends. Thanks for this, Ali!
I couldn't help but tear up when I realized I didn't think I was someone worth taking care of and it explains a lot of my habits pertaining to myself. Thank you Ali. I feel like this is maybe one of the first steps of many.
Interesting how this is exactly how I was feeling a few days earlier. And when I look at things now, I just need to start a momentum in the change I want to see for my life. By the way, Ali, I’m one of your Skillshare students and because your content I learned how to start my RUclips Channel which now is nearing 20k subscribers and I have 85k followers in my Facebook page which focuses on Korean language learning for Filipinos. I followed your steps and it worked well for me with a few bumps on the road. And I also bought your FEEL GOOD PRODUCTIVITY Book (still reading by the way) and your guidance is fueling my passions. You’re my ultimate productivity coach and thank you for being here for us. I’m now 31 and I don’t know where life will lead me but with you here, I’m not as afraid as I was before. Thank you and your team, Ali.
So true on the small things. I take pride in something small like making my bed every day, knowing that at the end of the day I get to finish my day getting into a neatly made bed, but in taking pride in that one small action it normally leads to doing another small thing and another small thing which compounds throughout the day. Even on my worst days I can still make my bed every morning.
My ideal week would also be to work 3 hours a day and walk the dog or have other leisure time for 4 hours a day, then go to the gym for 2 hours and then relax for the rest of the day.
Too bad life doesn't work that way and normal people actually have to work for a living instead of walking the dog.
😂😂😂
My thoughts exactly. I would also be happy working only 3 hrs/day.
You are so calming and nonjudgmental. I loved this. Thank you
At 45, broke, unemployed. Going throught the weeds of this atm. I dont actually have any interest in being alive, but not actively able to end things . Yes on the meds, but
Theres not much point really. Funnily im doing somewhat better so im actually able to even share that thats where ive been at /am at . People want to "fix" , but id rather just not
I hear you, go one day at a time to find the happiness within. Hugs.
Just give up and enjoy the day then, there’s nothing wrong with being unambitious. 3 meals and a good book is a lot
Just because a lot of people mindlessly follow ambition (including me btw) - it doesn't mean it's actually right for you (something I just realized).
And when people finally achieve what they want what happens? They feel a short term buzz then start wanting again. We're never satisfied!
Jordan Peterson says, "Don't compare yourself to anyone else, compare yourself to you yesterday!" I thought this was a really interesting re-orientation.
But you can just focus on trying to find peace and joy in your life Dat to day.
I wish you quality of life!
Start a RUclips channel… many people going through that
I am not 45, but I have been in your mind space few months ago. So I understand.
For the past 15 years, I had it rough, nothing was working. Had nothing to show for being alive. Countless heartbreaks, no love life, no money, no child, nothing.
I was suicidal. Until I noticed it's a universe thing, I'm an aqua.
Trust me, if you commit suicide, you would have deprive yourself of an opportunity to experience positive change.
And trust it will come. Tough times don't last, tough people do.
And by the way, I am almost 40😅
'Designing your life' really did help improve my life, especially the section where they tell you to assess four aspects of your life. Happiness did in fact depend on the healthy levels of these four areas: Health, Work, Play and Relationship. It gives a perfect clarity on how even in the most mundane life, you can find true peace and happiness just tweaking a few things and making sure all four of these are in the right amount of your life.
much needed video thanks ali. I have been folowing your form 5 years now and your videos have helped me grow and still it helps me every single day. keep doing the great work ali. hope to see you soon one day.
...okay I really needed to hear that about accepting where you are in order to change it, thank you
As an investing enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?
Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience.If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.
The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.
Glad to have stumbled on this comment, Please who is the consultant that assist you and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with them?
Svetlana Sarkisian Chowdhury a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
I have a dog, my very first one, and yes, it's almost a full-time job. However, over the last year, she has given me hope and motivation to improve myself. I love our morning walks in the park: when I see her happy, I’m happy too, and it’s great to start my day knowing I’ve done something to make her feel that way. :)
I REALLY liked your graphic about the baseline we consider a good life and how to move above that line and, as a persone who still struggle with depression, I totally agree on what you said, good job!
Found myself at the age of 32 but took me 7-8 years to climb to unimaginable success. You can do it alot sooner with guidance and constructive feedback. Stay Uncommon!
The last part of the cycle, and how one habit brings the other because of the way you feel and you identify with, is really strong. I see it in my self all the time. Thank you for another great video!
Just in time… thank you.

exactly man
Same. Thanks Ali.
Wow this really resonated with me, especially differentiating between the X and Y advice. I’ve been way too focused on the huge life changes stuff (like wanting a fresh start in another country and/or job) and getting so overwhelmed that I shutdown and become paralysed with indecision. When really, I’m below baseline right now and need to build momentum with small things over time. In the past I have dived head first into big changes/moves and it’s been great, but thinking about doing that now feels way too scary and overwhelming- I needed to hear that that’s not always the best way to tackle things, there are other options. Thanks Ali, this is really helpful❤
It has become my most favorite among all of your videos. I have bought your book and started reading it. Really this video is one hell of a boost for me. Taking the small step first by consuming more water daily. Thank you very much.
This couldn't have come at a better time, didn't think of scheduling an ideal week, this is helpful and I really needed this, thank you.
This video was absolutely value-packed! You are wise beyond your years Ali. Thank you
I am about to be 21 and feel that I'm not good enough and have lost my spark. Sometimes I feel lost in life and feel like running away. I thank you wholeheartedly for bringing this video. Thank you so much Ali, you helped a lot!
That doctor handwriting will never leave you
I appreciate that Ali takes time to read and heart all the comments, even when Ali has a huge subbie base. I really learnt something crucial from this video. Thanks, Ali. You rock! I subbed 😊
Yup, taking a dog out 4x/day is quite a burden on time. The love though ❤❤❤ and thankfully, being forced to walk for dozens of hours per week without a break ever is quite healthy
Secret Pathway To Triumph blew my mind. I’ve shared them with friends, and they’re all amazed at the shifts in their mindset.
"Having to walk the dog" or having a reason to 'get to' go outside and enjoy moving your body with your best bud? 🐶😉
I have been feeling low since morning, and this video popped up on my RUclips. I received my work permit a few months back (In April) and am actively seeking a job. I thought I was below baseline because I felt useless. After watching this video, I realized that I am at the baseline i.e. 'My life is reasonably good' because I am doing most of the things I would want to get done in my ideal day which is exercising, eating healthy, taking care of the house, spending quality time with my partner, and studying. Thank you for this video. I will try to incorporate the small and big changes to improve further.
A lot of media conflate therapist/psychiatrist with life coach. Ali is a Gymshark Productivity Coach.
It would be so great to see a series of something like this where you follow along with somebody improving their life using these ideas, seeing the speed bumps, struggles, successes etc.
How about people who are truly behind in life? It is not a feeling,, but a reality.
Ikr, this video is from a man who went to cambridge at a young age and then went on to become a millionare youtuber at a young age...this is condescending
I had to study and work 10 years to gain my qualifications for my job. I felt behind in my personal life when I did. Truth is everyone feels like they are behind in one aspect or another by comparing with others, our elders, neighbours etc. Truth is be happy with what you do have and live in the moment. Just know someone out there has it worst off than you. Be grateful for what you do have even if you do go through hard times. Know you are not alone. Someone had to go through the same hardships.
"what's your ideal life?"
"I want to work 5 days a week 🙂"
Damn jane live a little
In fairness it needed to be a realistic ideal week in the short term :)
Lol I was literally telling myself...on an ideal day, I wouldn't work. 😂
My ideal week : no working day
Shopping 5 days a week can be an ideal life for many women
@@yashitdonttouchyou want a ideal week in not working so that you have more time for scrolling ..
She's pretty successful knowing what an ideal day would look like. When I think about it I realize that an ideal day is a day when I have to do absolutely nothing, feel absolutely nothing, more like the time has stopped moving at all.

Here's another doctor who I left medicine to open restaurants and Ali you've been a huge inspiration to me since day one
With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter. How can I profit from the current volatile market, I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $125k bond/stocck portfoli0
It’s precisely at times like these that investors need to be on guard against the next certainty. You don’t have to act on every forecast, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on
Right, I've been in constant touch with a fiinancial-analyst since covid . You know these days it's really easy to buy into trending e task is determining when to buy or sell . My advisorr decides entry and exit commands on my portfoliio, I've accrued over $300k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K.
please may i know your Advisor?

Ali, I bet I'm not the only one who feels a positive vibe/playfulness and lightness from within just just by watching this video. 🍃🌱🌌🦄
Ali, is there a test or something to see where we stand on the graph with the baseline? 😁
Meticulous planning, structuring, and creating expectations on yourself is not a cure but a disease - total freedom lies in giving yourself space, and freedom, and to trust in yourself being able to make the best of it - sometimes you have bad days, sometimes you have good days. There is not mystery or guide to teach you this.
thank you for this video! it’s all concepts that I’m very familiar with but the way it’s explained it was very refreshing. it’s simple and concise, helps clear out the overwhelming feelings that I get as someone in their 20’s.
@aliabdaal you have 100% been a coach for years. From your early videos sharing how to type faster to your inspirational life content now! You are a 💎
Hey love your vids but therapists very much DO FOCUS on what to do next and even give you assignments. Pls correct this so people don’t get the wrong impressions of this, it’s already such a thing where people don’t get therapy.
Thought same. Such a poor and generalised statement.
I agree, that's what therapy ( like cognitive behavioral therapy ) does. I was surprised and worried by the statement he made because he has such a huge platform.
And as he says in this video peolpe contact him for advice. Hopefully they will do their research about the benefit of therapy and take his opinion about it with a grain of salt.
Aside from that, his video is good, but what he said about therapy stuck with me.
It continues to amaze me how great RUclipsrs find very creative ways to add an affiliation, I didn't see it coming.
I'm learning a lot about the subject, appreciated. well done.
Sometimes you try to do better but the people around you are not supportive and even criticise you for trying to do well.
this video somehow popped out in my recommendations... it's as if this video was calling for me. Thank you Ali
I really needed this 🥺💞 Thank you!
Loved the video, just one thing: it's a misconception that a therapist only works with/on your past, actually a (good) therapist IS a coach, who focuses on the past, present and future :)
I don't think that a therapist only works on someone's past. They also work on a person's future. And the thing you explained in the "Ideal Day" segment is also done by a therapist, especially when people have dysfunctional thinking patterns. I love your videos and have followed you for a long time, but I thought I'll clarify this as a psychology researcher that your videos mostly cater to the psychologically "normal". People with dysfunctional thinking and behaviour won't understand these concepts so easily. That's where a therapist comes in. I hope you understand :)
Having a name and thoughts like Jane now this video feels so personally made for me! Thanks Ali!
Your videos always motivate me so much! Thank you!
Whenever i feel cluttered and demotivated, your videos pop out in my suggestion. Thank you Ali 👍✌
This is a great video I really appreciate the dedication in each video you post, I learn a lot watching your videos and it has always been helpful to me. Building a steady income is quite difficult for newbies.. Thanks to Abel Dorsey for improving my portfolio. keep up with the good videos.
What I like about Ali's channel is that he somehow manages to upload the exact videos i need at the right timing. Thanks Ali!
No dog was harmed during this "productive conversation "
no joke opal has changed my life. downloaded it on a whim about a month ago because of another content creator and it has cut my screen time 49% which is WILD. working on getting it even lower :)
"i'm not a morning person" also "i'd probably wake up around 8am" excuse me ????? that is a morning person LOOL
8am is kinda late for a morning person. Unless you're 12, there's no reason to be lying on the bed for that long.
@@mikiim5739 see that’s where you’re completely wrong, people who aren’t morning people will sleep at like 3-4 and wake up at like 11
After not having watched your videos for at least half a year ,(so sorry!!) I needed to see this video. Thank you Ali.
Our hero 🌿
This is it!! Especially the keystone habits and taking care of yourself FIRST. When you get those habits in place and prioritize your health and wellbeing, everything else gets a lot easier. Thanks for sharing Ali, and echoing the exact key takeaway I got from Craft + Commerce last week. (btw, we met briefly in the elevator going to John Meese's book launch party, I'm the health copywriter, hi again! ) I realized I need to get out of my own way and instead of watching RUclips for 2-3 hours every morning 😬 I need to re-implement a morning routine that actually makes me feel good and supports my journey as a creator and business owner. Also, I'm going to start making RUclips videos to grow my audience! Cheers to being real and walking the talk. :)

Thanks, Ali! Your "ideal day" and "ideal week" planning method is fantastic. For me amplenote was the perfect tool do to this, amplenote just boosted my productivity big time. Appreciate the tips!
Honestly speaking, your videos doesn't contain any value addition to the audience. Nobody want to plan everything and those who plan don't need your help for planning.
Lol whats ur issue. This video actually helped me rn in two ways. Only bc u cant pull any value doesn’t mean others do too
😂😂😂
True. This feeling is real. I am a medical doctor in Bangladesh.
I see people passing PG exams, doing BCS and what not. And here I am doing something completely different. I have a freelance business (I write online ebooks to make around $1000-2000) so money is not the issue. The issue however is how sometimes I feel left behind in my career.
Great video Ali. Always the motivation.
Love listening to you Ali and your awesome capacity to structure and define and your journey and podcast are so brilliant …..
…. in this episode I appreciated you clearly saying you are not a therapist and I heard a vibe of slightly dismissing therapy as being just about the past - good therapy is so much more - embodiment, inhabiting more of who we are, digesting undigested pain from the past in the present, deep listening, learning how to relate to oneself with kindness rather than criticism to name a few things. 😊
Ali, all these things were exactly what I needed 😢 such simple concepts, but, so so powerful! I am not good with expressing emotions through words, but I am so so grateful for everything you do ❤
Found a lot of values in this video , thank you for sharing 🙏🏽 the « start where you are » thing is powerful for me
I haven’t been born yet - really glad to have found this video to make the most of my upcoming life. Thanks Ali!
I'm a in heavy stressful situation (family members, anixety, depression, etc.) And this helped me, I cried because I was happy, I also feeling heavily numb (like real bad, some people say it's confusion & your brain is trying to protect you, so I think that's what was going on) though I'm starting to feel emotions again. Thank you so much for helping me ^^
A psychologist does not focus just on the past, perhaps traditionally many decades ago. Your past does not have to define you but to understand it is important for your present and future, at least for people that are into personal growth. The age old saying 'never forget where you come from' is so powerful for a reason.

This has helped me unblock a bit Ali, thank you! I am pulling myself as best I can (with therapy help) out of a depression and anxiety hole at the moment and this is helping me find productive ways to focus on the future that aren't self-defeating. Fingers crossed for the rest of my 'quest' here, but for now, I appreciate the help :)
I have watched many of your videos but this one resonates with me on next level. Recently I had started taking small steps everyday and I could feel my life gaining momentum and moving above the baseline and yes I have few answers to the questions you asked for the people above the baseline. I feel so happy that I finally started to move in my life and then I came across this video. So yeah I’m going in the right direction just by taking small steps every day. It’s amazing…
THE advice I need! I'm in my late 30s now but still haven't found much purpose in my life ( I got into a career which felt like a misfit for me in my 20s ) THANK YOU :)
Thank you for the great video. I'm definitely feeling pumped to plan an ideal week, achieve my goals, and enjoy the journey along the way.
I found this video extremely helpful. Thank you for being down to earth and relatable.
a problem written down is the problem halved, well done to jane!
That has given me a lot of clarity, Ali! love your videos❤❤
